Weekly Occasional Quote
Another quote from Yes, Prime Minister in homage to Derek Fowlds. It is from one of my favourite YPM episodes.
Bernard Woolley: No, we can't have alphabetical seating in the Abbey. You'd have Iraq and Iran next to each other. Plus Israel and Jordan all sitting in the same pew. We'd be in danger of starting World War III. I know Ireland begins with an 'I' but no! Ireland doesn't make it any better; Ireland doesn't make anything any better.
