Liberal England’s Eight for 2008
Friday, December 28th, 2007Jonathan Calder at Liberal England has 8 wishes for 2008.
1. Nick Clegg to turn out to be half as good as his supporters claimed he was during the election campaign;
2. Guantanamo Bay to close;
3. A Lib Dem education that goes further than “we agree with the NUT”;
4. Jonathan Ross to be sacked by the BBC;
5. Me to get more paid writing published;
6. Andrew Flintoff to return to test cricket;
7. Chelsea to win the Champions League;
8. Leicester Tigers to win everything in site.
No argument whatsoever with any of the even-numbered items on the list. To 6 I’d add a wish for the return of Marcus Trescothick and the (seemingly almost forgotten) Simon Jones, who is now with Worcestershire. As for 8, we might have to settle for the Anglo-Welsh thingy this season, if the recent displays against Toulouse and Sale are anything to go by,
