So, today we got a new prime minister. sort of. the bloke next door moved in.
Anyway. see the little boy in the picture? he was born when tony blair was prime minister - the first kid of a serving leader to be born for generations. He has no idea what it's like to have a dad that's not the prime minister. How weird would that be? It may make no difference to the little chap - dad not around because he's wrangling the world from 10 downing street to dad not around because he's doing what ever comes next. it just struck me when I saw this news photo - this little boy knows nothing else.

It's not you. It's them. Absolutely. Them.
About Me
- Name: dodo
- Location: London, United Kingdom
Recently reclaimed by PR industry after more recent background in lobbying and, before that, business journalism. From London and working part time in city but living in sticks. Trying not to pass on to my daughter all that my mother kindly left me. Raging against inevitability. Getting better at it. or not. NEED to rewrite this to say i'm not working at the moment and that there's all kinds of neds stuff going on, but to do that seems really official and final, so a postscript will have to do.
