Interesting metaphor of the day

Michael Gove:

Now I read that good old BSM, the dullest of all driving schools, and one on which I relied, is ditching the dowdy old Vauxhall, for, of all cars, the Fiat 500. That’s like throwing over Polly Toynbee for La Cicciolina.

I dunno: at least La Cicciolina got elected to something before she started to tell everyone else how to live their lives…..

    Not a bad metaphor. You wouldn’t want a Fiat 500 for a really long ride but one would be fun in a city…
