And then they vote. And as was expected, the result was overwhelmingly in favour of continuing the unjustifiable maintenance of the nuclear deterrent.
And a man votes, as he always has, with his conscience, and is castigated by those in front and behind him. For being honest, and honourable, and not waving his dick around and declaring that ‘Yes, I would kill 100,000 innocent people if it gets me votes’.
And I know that the Prime Minister doesn’t have an actual dick, but she has the metaphorical one that seems to be the prerequisite of the political leader – the instant sound bite, the image.
But what will be the difference to our continued possession of weapons of mass destruction? Will ISIS suddenly back away now we have made this decision? Will South Korea suddenly turn away from technically fallible testing and agree to behave like the good little chaps we expect them to be? Will Putin admit that he was just pretending to be pissed off with the west?
No.
So, as that isn’t the answer, perhaps we should try something else. Except we are. We are talking to our ‘enemies’ all the time. This is just posturing to justify political expediency, and not for the people’s benefit. You know, the people our new Prime Minister was pledging to work for a few days ago.
