The elections are a source of much parody, from being made cartoons of, in both the parliamentary and artistic sense, to making for great movies, there is no shortage of the entertainment quotient, especially with great witty, scandalous quotes flying from one corner to another, with Harold Macmillan stating the biggest challenge for a statesman in the fewest yet most appropriate words- “Events my dear boy, events”
He may have made this remark in the late 1950s, in the typically aristocratic, Conservative way he was( plus he was an actual Earl so that furthers his cause) but that is a remark that defines politics the world over, for it is actually events that do make and break careers or lives and make for good anecdotes( I should know, I have seen many events. Speaking of eventful, our current government versus the opposition fits the bill admirably, I have never seen two parties having so much vitriol and energy that they can keep on badgering each other daily, in front of the cameras and day by the day the remarks get more snarky and witty, which makes me want to ask them, have you ever considered a career in advertising, because your talents would make for great use in this particular field.
Talking about events, Jyotiraditya Scindia has accused the Congress of wearing different masks during election season, which reeks of humorous irony, considering the fact that nearly all politicians belong to the same hypocrisy as Michael Corleone said in the Godfather II, and they often have to act in one way and think in another, for truth is a commodity that is not entertained in this sphere, but then it is fun to watch the back and forth on a daily basis, wouldn’t you agree?
