    1) She was extraordinarily prescient about what would happen to Europe.

    2) We don't have proper politicians anymore.

      No mowing your lawn or DIY on Sunday, church-based taxes , yeah Germany......
      What's worse, not being allowed to mow your lawn on a Sunday, or not having a lawn to mow in the first place because house prices are too high.

      As for the DIY, I wouldn't mind not being allowed to do it as long as I could persuade somebody else to do my DIY for me.

        Well, that and destroyer of UK industrial capability, but who doesn't know the obvious?
