that's a dig

This feels like a summary of Scandinavian history.

That will knacker things up at the next Eurovision.

I wonder, amongst recent polling, what % of older folk who elected Johnson on the promise of a return to pre-EU ‘freedoms’, are now a touch dismayed that their Government’s inept and delayed response has resulted in prolonged isolation.
