Richie - My precocious 12 year old grandson Bob Roberts jnr has been visiting and this morning his head was firmly stuck in a history book as he swotted up on our corrupt financial system for a school essay. "I mean, it's clear where the blame lies" young Bob said. "It's all the fault of the odious Thatcher and her loony 1980s Right Wing governments who de-regulated the banks." Well, needless to say Rich, I tried to explain that it was more complex than that and was the also the fault of Gordon McBroon and Baby Eater Bob Crow. But he wasn't buying it and also blamed the Tories for making a pact with the Murdoch devil. "I know! Why don't we see what Bwitain's Bestest Columnist has to say about the banking scandal ?" I said. Well, imagine our disappointment, Lord Richie, when we opened the DM to discover you'd written a primary school skit about F1 coming to London. "You see grandad ? The lot of 'em haven't got a clue!" said Bob jnr and skipped off to attend his Mandarin lesson. The feral yoof of today, eh Rich ?
