Too good to be true

I’M ONE of those grumpy, dyed-inthe-wool Little Englanders who happens to love his country and had the audacity to vote to leave the EU.

When all the oldies have moved on to their retirement castles in the sky, the younger generation can live in their socialist paradise.

The money tree will continue to grow like Jack’s beanstalk, and there will be free holidays in Cuba and Venezuela for all under-25s.

The irony is that if I was a youngster, I might well have been seduced by cuddly Uncle Jeremy.

My maxim is if it sounds too good to be true, it is. I hope by the time reality dawns it’s not too late.
