He's a robotic vacuum, but with a personality.
Well, you know, like 15 years ago, a good friend of mine was working for, in Nick Clegg's private office.
And I saw something that I don't think I was meant to see, which was like an actual internal Lib Dem, this is when they're in government, strategy document.
And it had, and it was done by one of their strategists, and it had like all of their policies written.
And then it had their favourite soundbites that they like to say on the radio.
And it was a link of how these soundbites are underpinned by these policies.
And I wish I could remember the specifics.
But I'm like, this is the most interesting document that I've probably ever seen.
Because everyone thinks that these soundbites are just meaningless and they're not underpinned by anything.
But they are.
You just, for some reason, don't tell anyone.
Everyone would love to see this document.
This is why it's maybe not all complete rubbish, but for some reason it has to be closely guarded.
Well, this is something we picked up in last week's episode, which is that the propensity for politicians to fall into politics speak all the time without realising that therefore it doesn't make any sense to anyone outside politics.
I remember having that kind of moment of revelation
When I was younger, I used to kind of... I was brought up a Catholic.
The point where I stopped...
quite believing was when I realized that all the language used in church doesn't make any sense unless you are a believer.
Do you know what I mean?
Because so someone can get up and said, we pray that the light of our life may nourish and reflect upon us the joy of our being and therefore magnify its beauty through the manifest gifts that you, none of that makes any sense unless you make that little leap of faith.
