In many cases, the act of saying you will do something is just as good as actually doing it. I use this approach at work, to great effect. It brings to mind the dialogue from the finale of Gilbert & Sullivan's "The Mikado"...

Dialogue from the finale of Gilbert & Sullivan's "The Mikado".

It's like this: When your Majesty says, "Let a thing be done," it's as good as done — practically, it is done — because your Majesty's will is law. Your Majesty says, "Kill a gentleman," and a gentleman is told off to be killed. Consequently, that gentleman is as good as dead — practically, he is dead — and if he is dead, why not say so?

For example, The Telegraph headline was "Murder rate lowest in 40 years as more people stay at home", is meant to bemoan the fact that it's the decline in drunken nights out that has led to drop in fatal stabbings. However, the statistics show that the majority of murders take place in the home.

Female homicide victims were most likely to be killed in or around a house or dwelling, and male victims in public places

Lowest murder rate in 49 years across England and Wales. You wouldn't know it though, because the right-wing press wants you to believe everything is going to sh*t. www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopula...

About bloody time. Maybe we can start reversing some of the £90bn loss PER YEAR, that Brexit has caused to our economy...

Daily Express front-page headline from Tuesday 2nd December 2025 "Now PM admits seeking closer links to EU".

A new study reveals Brexit's true price tag is staggering. Originally thought to have cost the UK around 4% of GDP, this new study has concluded that our GDP has been stifled by between 6% and 8%, and that it has cost the treasury £90bn EACH YEAR in lost revenue. Still, immigrants, eh?

Having made a decent grift, grinding his gears primarily about Muslim immigration to the UK, Reform MP Richard Tice is now very happy to live in a Muslim country under Sharia law, ruled by an absolute monarchy and where political dissent is not tolerated. Still, low taxes, eh?
