Elaborate - Labour*

* - I recall sending an email to the Controller of a German subsidiary where I was a NED...... His explanation for an item in the Monthly Report was ‘vague’. So I asked him to elaborate.

Heard nothing back and when I visited the following month, he was distinctly ‘cold’ towards me. Turns out he didn’t know/understand the word elaborate so he looked it up in a German / English dictionary. It said ‘labour/work harder’ <yikes><yikes><yikes>

Just shows how easily things can be lost in translation ... <cheers>

Unelectable - Liberals*

* - Liberals are not going to gain power (again) any time soon. Labour, possibly, if Boris keeps tripping himself up ...... Anyway, they are always elected in Wales ....

IF Boris keeps tripping himself up!!!

Surely...WHEN Boris...

Liberal - Burial **
** as their electoral chance end up

Always voted Liberal (& Dem) till they sold out to the Tories
 
Nick - the ‘if’ related to if he continues to trip himself up, meaning he is currently and needs to stop. If he can’t, the gap will continue to close and Labour could win....

Never voted Liberal: I’ve voted for Labour, Plaid Cymru and the Tories. Labour ‘lost’ my vote rather than either of the latter two winning it.....

Burial - Embalmed*

* - before burial?
