Smug Kid

“Ask The Family” is a regular feature in the Observer magazine, where an ordinary family are asked their opinion about some topic or other. This week it’s which prize they’d most like to see won by a British team or individual. Joe, 14, comes up with this (can’t find it online):

I’d like the British Prime Minister to win a Nobel peace prize. To do that, he or she would have to stop going to war when the Americans tell him to and start giving back some of the money we have stolen off the poor nations of the world, so that they can eat, sleep and live in peace.

Personally I blame the parents.

    Well, I’d like to see a British rider in the maillot jaune. But David Millar is a $#€%!

    Dave – What can I say? I agree with you 100%. Not sure what it’s got to do with the post, but yes, it’s something that needed to be said.

    It was that bit of the post. You basically said the kid gave a wrong answer. I suggested a right one.
