Introduction


Can each day be headlined by a word (or two) and represented by a single sentence?

Will they, in turn, weave together to form a tapestry of the year?

It may be more mundane than momentous, but it’s mine to share.

Theresa May Not

Yesterday I received a personalised (yeah!) letter from the Tory party leader that was particularly patronising in urging me to support her as otherwise I would weaken her negotiating position on Brexit, as if the European leaders across the table would be swayed by or even care about her popular vote, particularly as none of the electorate actually know what her negotiating stance on any aspect of leaving is (apparently it has to be confidential), so she is basically saying trust me, mummy knows best, repeating ad nauseam her mantra of ‘I am a strong and stable leader’; my reply is that calling of an unnecessary election shows weakness not strength (and what a mess she expects us to be in by 2020) and her electoral miscalculation has risked the instability that her panicky letter requires me to rescue her from.
