So what's new?

I just had to share this beauty with you!

Headline in todays DAILY TELEGRAPH.

Ministers may allow 'lunatics' to become MPs

Elizabethan laws define idiots as "incapable of gaining reason" and lunatics as capable of only periods of lucidity. What, in Parliament has changed?

Your thoughts!?

The officially diagnosed ones can't do worse than the amateurs running the country now. I look forward to the next election with renewed interest.
