Where has all the good sense gone?

Greetings,

With all the challenges ethnic minorities face in the UK, it is beyond me that a member of it, who had attained high office, could not forsee the risk of coming up with a bright idea.

It appears to me, a fundamental principle has been missed while negotiating the dizzy heights of power - how to walk the ever narrowing, thin, chalk line, and not fall off. It is clear the past has taught no lessons. Such high elevation does not eliminate obstacles, fences deeply entrenched, and bar set.

Resistance to change is still high on the popularity ratings.

Entering the political territory puts one face to face with the status quo. Therefore, it should be understood, what the position is on the inside.

I can only hope reflection on the matter will bring about a return to common sense, as we wait, in the long distant future, for history to be recorded again.

Peace

Grace
