Mrs Ratty's Mistake.

I’m being driven to distraction by a repetitive ad on YouTube at the moment. It appears at the beginning of three out of four videos I watch, and it’s for the Tory Party in the run up to the General Election.

Needless to say I switch the sound off as soon as I see the little notification that it’s coming, and I switch the rest off after I’ve been forced to sit through the obligatory five seconds.

It features a woman with the face and bearing of a rat and the disposition to match, standing in front of a lectern doing an impersonation of Margaret Thatcher. I assume she is labouring under the absurd delusion that it will persuade me to vote for her.
