Oh, and thanks Mr Carter, the search for the Patel quote led me also to this one from today, from Ian Duncan-Smith:-"Iain Duncan Smith is obviously happy that Brexit is over and done with – but his celebrations seem to have been cut short by an attack of wistfulness.“I just wish I was 21 again, frankly,” IDS – an arch-Brexiteer – said. “Because my goodness what prospects lie ahead of us for young people now. To be out there buccaneering, trading, dominating the world again…”"https://www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/ids-rinsed-after-urging-young-brits-to-buccaneer-trade-and-dominate-the-world/01/01/Responded to by Michael Rosen on Twitter:-I think I saw Iain Duncan Smith on TV last night looking very happy saying 'Now...we can dominate the world...' 1. Can we?2. Why would we want to?3. Is he OK?--------------------------A bit too early for Duncan-Smith to go for Favourite quotes of the year 2021, but a good try, nonetheless.
