Feel inspired by this lot in Westminste­r?

- Mr M Stafford Brackla, Bridgend

THE political scene in the UK is getting more farcical by the day. The world, including the EU, must be splitting their sides in laughing at our once Great Britain with Westminste­r which has completely lost the plot.

We have the most exciting “Deal or No Deal” programme that is televised on a daily basis.

The prizes are absolutely profound, with a conglomera­tion of mixed-up MPs who cannot decide who should shoulder the responsibi­lity of thwarting a no-deal Brexit.

In the yellow corner we have the activist Jo Swinson (Liberal Democrat), who is punching hard to stop Jeremy Corbyn (Labour) leading the emergency government. Then in the red corner we have Jeremy Corbyn, who returns the punch to Jo Swinson that she has no right to choose the heavyweigh­ts to displace current champion Boris Johnson.

In the neutral corners we have Father of the House Ken Clarke and “matron” Harriet Harman, who have also been proposed to serve as temporary government leaders to instigate a Brexit result.

We then have light heavyweigh­ts, namely Dominic Grieve, Sir Oliver Letwin and Nick Boles, who have agreed to meet Jeremy Corbyn, but Mr Grieve has signalled he would not be supporting Jeremy Corbyn. Kwashi Kwarteng said he could not see Ken Clarke leading an emergency government.

So with a mixed bag of mixedup Members of Parliament with mixed ideas, there are only two persons left – they are Mickey Mouse or Popeye. Take your pick.
