    Where Nero was fiddling while the roman empire burned.

    The Seven Stages of Empire
    • The Age of Pioneers (Outburst)
    • The Age of Conquests.
    • The Age of Commerce.
    • The Age of Affluence.
    • The Age of Intellect.
    • The Age of Decadence.
    • The Age of Decline & Collapse.

    Never really gave it a thought. But this lovely person in charge is a reincarnation of Nero. (Does he play the violin by any chance) .and yes we are at stage 7.
    Not sure I'd like him to disappear just yet. Can see the total collapse of the Tory party. his cabinet falling on his sword.

    I dont think he has any musical talents, or any talents, at all.

    Yes. Decadence lasted until 2008. 2016 was the irreversible nail in the coffin.
