We were once

"The Sleeping Beauty". All I

individual who is large, hairy, with big teeth and prehensile muscles and one
of our distant primate cousins.
The Blair
Brown years and the EU gave us some daft laws trying to control complex issues
that cannot be resolved in crisis by laws.
Cameron and his Aunty Clegg gave us the utterly stupid one about fixed
five year Parliaments, oblivious to the many and various risks entailed.

They
are to be found in today's Automatic Earth.
If you go down the list you will see the brief items which invite you to

together they could spoil your evening.
Perhaps there
ought to be a law against it.
