If like the UK you run a balance of payments deficit of 2.5 per cent of GDP you need to finance that deficit with "the kindness of strangers". Pre-Brexit more than half of UK foreign direct investment came from continental Europe. A labour politician who doesn't understand economics - priceless

The distinctive sound on the "Rhubarb and Custard " theme music came about because the battery on the guitarist's wah wah peddle had run down - the question is who deserves the credit for refusing to pay for a new battery which led to the discovery of such a great sound - if you know, you know

The problem with Donald Trump is that he is rich and illiterate. He has to watch and listen in order to compensate for his illiteracy. The same learning difficulty in less wealthy offenders often causes rage at their inability to understand the nuance and detail of complex issues.
