As if we needed any confirmation of it, Ed Davey has given a speech in which he has confirmed that he has lost all grip on reality. Yes, he has been discussing with National Grid whether they will be able to cope when England win the World Cup next month.
I can announce today, that I have spoken to National Grid about England winning the World Cup.
And I can report that National Grid have assured me that the UK has enough electricity generating capacity ready to meet any World Cup spike – through the group stages and beyond.
So if Stevie Gerrard lifts the World Cup, Britain’s lights – and televisions - will stay on.
We're doomed, I tell you, doomed.
