Goodness me, the year’s rolled by quickly, and it seems that Haloween’s here again already. Well, Guy ‘Mr Pumpkin Head’ Verhofstadt has escaped from his carers once more, and is roaming around neighbourhoods scaring kids with his renewed calls for a ‘United States of Europe’.
Gormless Guy tweeted recently “Fifteen years ago, I wrote ‘The United States of Europe’, calling for a ‘Hamilton’ moment in politics so that Europe can finance itself properly and be more than the sum of its parts. Hopefully the Macron-Merkel proposal* will deliver this historic leap forward”.
Yes, the aesthetically challenged Mr V is up to his old tricks, fiddling while Madrid, Paris, Rome and elsewhere burn. It appears to have escaped his notice that, what with Brexit, Covid-19, a huge migrant crisis, an imminent economic collapse, ‘north v south’ infighting, the persistent growth of Euroscepticism and what-have-you, the EU is heading rapidly up Shit Creek without a paddle. Never mind though; in Pumpkin Head’s closed and deluded mind, there’s no problem that can’t be solved by more bureaucracy, less accountability, and greater centralisation and control. So bring on the United States of Europe, that great ‘historic leap forward’. Let’s just not bother asking the people of Europe whether that’s what they actually want.
He’s nothing if not tenacious, I’ll give him that, standing as he is pissing steadfastly into the wind, and getting showered by his own piddle. It’s getting harder by the day for the sad twat though. Who can take seriously an increasingly desperate-sounding zealot who also looks as if he lets his cleaner cut his hair and his gardener sort his teeth?
Ah hold on a sec, these two people in blue uniforms must be his carers. Come along now Guy, they’ll give you your Horlicks and your medication, read a chapter of your book to you, and get you ready for bed.
*the plan for a mega billion fund to mitigate against the financial effects of the C-19 pandemic.
