OK I am being a bit unfair to Denny, so lets look at the DOE on his own merits

[wendigo100]

I agree. Isn’t there a joke about the Duke of Edinburgh’s visit to China, where on seeing the Chinese head of state come towards him, promptly asks him for a menu? Or maybe it was just true

He was once filmed on a visit there calling them slitty-eyed commies, which was a bit off-message.

Not sure where Denny fits in to this?

The length of the original post? Or that I just ignored most of it hoping for an executive summary.

Anyway, I think the DoE is a fine chap. Tells it like it is. Not a mealy-mouthed, lying numpty like the 650 idiots we elected to run the country and award themselves massive pay rises and gold-plated pensions.

I lost the will to live half way through the first paragraph. You're Denny's alter ego, aren't you.

[wendigo100]

Wasn't there a story some years ago about the DoE and one of HM hand maidens?

One of? By all accounts he was at it left, right and centre. Although usually more discrete than with the handmaidens.
