I read that Labour deputy leader Harriet Harman is going to sneak in a new law, at the EU's polite request, that if you call somebody 'darling' or 'my duck' etc, you will find yourself in court, even if the person you were talking to is not offended.
Anyone in earshot could say they find such endearment offensive and claim compensation from you.
You could not make this up, could you? Are all these items in the EU constitution/treaty?
When someone is suffering from a bad water infection, they very often suffer strange behaviour in the mind.
I reckon all Government ministers should take a water sample to their GPs blooming quick, before they do any more damage to our democracy, the poor darlings.
