The Grand Coalition in Italy has been a rolling goat.
It's kinda funny how often Spain and Italy pitch up as examples of place not to be like.

I'm just back from Italy. Went from Venice to Rome in spotless smooth 300 km/H bullet train (state owned railway), where every passenger by default had to have a seat. Even the bogs were spotless.

Smartly dressed men and beautiful women everywhere I looked, happy smiling people everywhere. Evenings every restaurant packed with families, drinking, eating, laughing. Food amazing.

Ditto Spain, I have family in Granada...wonderful place. Same vibe.

I'm not sure why these countries keep popping up as place that "have gone wrong".

Seriously, I'm genuinely puzzled.

Sorry for the thread drift. Back to politics. Rerun election with Bojo - great plan...that'll put JC in No 10 in an eyeblink.

Re JC and the IRA thing. Nobody under the age of 40 cares. And in all this endless spraff here's a fact you can take to the bank. Every single day more 18 year olds qualify to vote and more old timers shuffle off this mortal coil.
