Boris Johnson was visiting a Glasgow primary school and the class was in the middle of a discussion about words and their meanings.
The teacher asked Mr Johnson if he would like to lead the discussion on the word 'Tragedy'.
So the the prime minister asked the class if they could think of an example of a tragedy.
A little boy stood up and said, 'If my best friend is playing in the field and a tractor runs over him and kills him, that would be a tragedy.'
'Incorrect,' said Johnson, 'That would merely be an accident.'
A little girl stood up and said 'If a school bus carrying thirty children drove over a cliff, killing everybody inside, that would be a tragedy.'
'I'm afraid not', said Johnson, 'That's what we would call a great loss'.
The room went silent. No other kid volunteered. Johnson searched the room.
'Isn't there someone here who can give me an example of a tragedy?'
Finally, little Johnny raised his hand from the back of the class and said, 'If a plane carrying you and all the Tory M.P.s was hit by a missile and blown to smithereens, that would be a tragedy.'
'Fantastic!' exclaimed Johnson, 'And can you tell me why that would be a tragedy?'
'Well,' said little Johnny, 'It has to be a tragedy, because it certainly wouldn't be a great loss, and it probably wouldn't be a fooking accident either.
Was well advised by many of us to stay away from AIM and the pump and dump crews. I reckon an honest well worded comment gets the point across without having to resort to language that can be considered "abusive"..... he's a big boy and needs to learn. As for today...my usual, in at 0802 with glenda and out before 0900 with profit.... dinner paid forwas thinking she might do 142-143 today, so maybe have a bite at her again later
