This morning some prick of a politician on the BBC radio spoilt my breakfast, by saying how we must respect the Irish vote (done in such a way, to imply what do you expect from these cretins. Then going on to say, at the end of the year we'll have a meeting to agree how to proceed (done in such a way to imply, by the end of the year you cretins will have forgotten the Irish vote).
I'm sure they'll find a way to weasel round or through it, but it's fun while it lasts...
Hooray! hooray! But you are right, I hear the sound of weaselling as I type this.
The weasels are gnawing at your keyboard as you type, the elephant in your room is padding behind your back on four potentially useful elephant-foot umbrella stands.
Latest is "the gorilla in the corner of the room" from a review in the TLS no less. Your slowworm in the woodpile has nothing on this.
