2017. What a fucking pig’s breakfast of a year. It’s been great in so many ways personally, a new Grandchild, a Wedding in Australia and we’re not bankrupt.

While here in New Zealand we might be turning the corner and moving away from our own brutal, National-led, dog-eat-dog, piss-on-the-poor-and-middle-classes legacy, the rest of the world is completely fucked! 

This record, written by a very miserable Roger Waters in 1977, just about nails the current bleakness of world politics.

You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to,So that when they turn their backs on you,You’ll get the chance to put the knife in.

There’s no getting away from it. Trump’s a complete cunt!!
