90 per cent of the British public believe that the Government’s handling of negotiations is a national humiliation
No sh*t Sherlock. It is an embarrassment, and I hate having to explain it away to colleagues who ask and laugh about it. And that’s coming from Americans, who should be equally, if not more, embarrassed by their leader. What times we live in. Makes you wonder who the 1 in 10 people are that think the Government’s handling of Brexit negotiations is NOT a national humiliation.
In other news, March Madness began this week – and my bracket was busted after just the first game (No 10 Minnesota beat No 7 Louisville) – so no big prizes for me this year, again. I read somewhere that the odds of picking a perfect bracket are roughly one in 9.2 quintillion. But I don’t think that is quite right, because I’m guessing those odds were reached assuming a 50-50 chance on each game – but with teams seeded then no game is really 50-50 and the odds should be less than that. In fact, some Math(s) professor has come up with odds of one in 2.4 trillion. No wonder no one has ever been able to prove that they picked a perfect bracket. That’s why it was so funny last year when a 16-seed beat a 1-seed – that had never happened before (0/135) and ruined almost everyone’s bracket. Ironically, the No 1 team Virginia that lost that game is the same team I’ve picked to win it this year.
