I have awarded the Quote of the Year 2024 to my dear wife, Jenny Lynch. Over the top of the morning newspaper she looked at me and said: “Stupidity seems to be a national pastime”.
Lest I be accused of nepotism, I offer as evidence countless news stories, interviews, and utterances from the past 12 months. I exclude social media from my body of evidence on the grounds that it would be too much like shooting fish in a barrel.
