Throwbacks

The Gorse Fox happened to be near the BBC buildings in London this morning. He had to chuckle as he was approached by one of a band of throwbacks from the ‘70s. Dressed like 1970’s Polytechnic lecturers one of the group steeped forward and tried to thrust a Socialist Workers Party leaflet into his hand. the leaflet demanded a strike over suggested changes to their compensation and pension packages.

With a polite smile, the Gorse Fox looked him in the eye and suggested politely that he should “Get real” and that his existence may have just evolved as far as the “Cretinous” level.

This seemed to take him by surprise as he sttod there open-mouthed as the Gorse Fox continued on his way.

I always used to go with "No Thanks, My Politics are a little more sophisticated than that". For some reason that used to elicit some pretty basic Anglo Saxon!
