FoR some reason,

watching the shenanigans at Westminster, I keep hearing the theme tune from Stingray, the Sixties adventure series from puppeteer Gerry Anderson. Stingray was the underwater companion show to the better-known Thunderbirds and began with the irresistible promise: ‘Anything can happen in the next half hour!’ That’s where British politics is now. You don’t know what madness is coming next. Yesterday, there was divine intervention in the form of a water leak which led to the Commons being evacuated. I’m looking forward to the plague of frogs, if it hasn’t occurred already by the time you read this. That’ll be a job for Stingray. Anything can happen in the next half hour!
