Thanks but no thanks, you wasted our votes

Morgan Freeman always had a bit of class. 

Even after a lifetime in Shawshank it showed. You remember the scene. Climbing off the pick-up truck near Buxton, his character, Red, gave a little gesture of appreciation along with the simple words “Much obliged”. It’s the sort of thing that sticks in the memory.

Much obliged. It’s the least we could have expected from the government parties, after they had begged us for our votes. Just a loan, mind you — ’til pay day. Then pay day came and we were subjected to a torrent of abuse!
