I watch election campaigning on television and listen to it on the radio and I ask myself: what galaxy am I living on? I also ask if the morbid parade of candidates is very different from the presentation of gladiators who were prepared to compete for the right to life in the Roman Coliseum.There is so much rubbish, so many inconsistent promises, so many offences to our language that I feel I prefer to visit the zoo where I can see a variety of caged animals without the bother of having to listen to so much nonsense.
