Just as the England football manager starts with bells and flags and balloons and ends up reviled, so do prime ministers. Tony Blair - is there anyone more despised now?

I like the relative literacy of at least some of England. I mean, I didn’t come for the food or the weather! Picture Quote #1

Come the three corners of the world in arms, and we shall shock them. Naught shall make us rue, if England to itself do rest but true Picture Quote #1

What a pity it is that we have no amusements in England but vice and religion! Picture Quote #1
