I was doing some work in my garden the other day, when my left wing neighbour popped round with his teen-aged daughter. They stopped for a chat, and during the chat I asked the daughter what she wanted to be when she was older.
She replied " I want to be Prime Minister"
I said, "Wow that's great! And what's the first thing you would do as Prime Minister?"
She replied, "I would give more money to the poor."
"Well, why wait?" I said, "help me with my garden and I'll give you £50 that you can give to a homeless man to buy himself food and drink."
She looked at me puzzled and said "Why don't you just get the homeless man to do your gardening and give the £50 straight to him?"
"Find me one that'd dig up these weeds." I replied.
My neighbours don't talk to me anymore.
I do my gardening myself.
