IT was sad to see a British Prime Minister swear on the TV news in an interview at a public venue.

What an example to set our young people!

Passion? It was more a rant with sarcasm. I suspect he was trying to show a new image, Farage without charisma, just needing that pint of beer and a fag. Surely he cannot be that desperate for votes!

Next time my seven-year-old grandson swears at school, he might say: “Well the Prime Minister did it on TV. No-one told him off.” Or worse still, many youngsters wanting to win an argument put this on YouTube to justify their rants and swearing.
