I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

It is an attempt at humour but remember that little matter of troops being on standby?
Those of a certain age may remember General Sir Walter Walker and his Civil Assistance organisation. https://discovery.nationalarchives.g...ls/r/C11265477 You can't read the document but you only need to look at personalities to realise it was not Civil Defence.
Things have moved on and 'those of a certain age ' are too stiff of joint today but maybe someone in Westminster remembers.

Somebody on the other thread was saying that the anti Brexit petition was strongest around Cambridge. This was meant as a criticism. That would be the Cambridge of Hawking, Newton, Darwin, Turing, Watson, Crick, Keynes and Rutherford.

Well said Bob. Patent nonsense that all Brexiteers are stupid. It's the other way round - all stupid people are Brexiteers.

And Newton went to school in the same town as that ardent Europhil Margaret Thatcher.
