A Little Bit of Insanity

For the last few years I’ve written a blog based on our general elections, on Facebook. As we’re all in need of a laugh at the moment, I thought I’d share it on here too. The sad thing is that politics is a subject that should be taken seriously as it affects us all, butContinueContinue reading “A Little Bit of Insanity”
