Whilst it's clear that old MG is as mad as a box of frogs and considerably more dangerous, I do wish people would hurry along his demise. At this rate, the regimes of the middle east are going to be toppling like dominoes and probably not before time. However the political uncertainty that will follow, alluded to previously, is not particularly welcome.
Umpteen new fledgling regimes trying to sort out their own infrastructures and also figure out how to relate to new neighbouring governments (previously hostile in some cases) is going to be a little volatile...
Now this may be exciting, but it's driving up the cost of my motoring and frankly that's unacceptable.
So, I've said it before, I'll say it again..let's go nuclear, and I mean big time.
Sure build some wind farms to kill golden eagles and rig up all sorts of crap across rivers and tidal surges, but get me nuclear power, lots of it and fast.
Then I can stop relying on overpriced Russian gas to cook and heat, and I can plug my electric car in to get to work.
At which point, we can tell the nations of the Middle East to bloody well get on with it, make up, and become a trading block based on co-operation, not cow-towing to who's got the most oil and therefore all the US/British guns,........ or alternatively........... blow yourselves to crap and end up living in tents.....we won't care.
In addition, once the US and western nations stop interfering, (which is almost always to do with oil, although they never admit it) Islamic fundamentalists will no longer have need to blow us up, and their own citizens can decide what religion they choose to follow, and how to follow it.
Now, after that, if only we could get them to grow more oranges instead of opium !!
