Poor Martin

Scene  Cabinet secretaries room  

Sir Hum. Do the press ever get anything I get him to say right ? 
Arnold     You do OK mate !     Even without my help 
 

Think of Poor Martin  Luther
He started a worldwide word led whirlwind, and his only helpmate was a woman!!
 
Plus ,she , like him, had taken vows of poverty and had heaps to do looking after all the people who wanted to talk to her mate. 
Bern What about their house?-it was a mansion. 
Sir H  Those were the days before this dumb blinkered era when we measure everything by the value our houses.God help us !
 It was public property, as it often should be  and like all those who lived in it , only theirs while they made it work ! He had lectures to give as well as lead two churches one of which was the resident Lord's . Both churches are still there  as is this picture and words of Luther in the foyer .

   

Sir H   Katie's husband was like the new pope!
Bern 

Just imagine if Luther's household had a phone. The press would be saying, you need a press secretary to edit his "careless "commentaries on who is running the economy!. The bankers. Those Jews! Arnold Luther said many times about what he said " I wish I had never mentioned it !" Sir Hum : Typical minister -- putting his foot in it ! Arnold Typical human being you mean ! Bern " How did he finance his campaigns? SirH He didn't have any ! The bigger his day the more time he spent praying 8 hrs a day is mentioned Bern Not hard to imagine him being a bit edgy ! See the picture ,


Bern And actually, that quote reminds me that he did so many things " without advice or answer " Arnold Get your Lens App out and get to know the man! What a man ! Arnold He kept going and his words changed the world. He made the message simple enough for people to realize how good the message was. This explanation of the first commandment below . His tunes were so good, Hitler pinched them for his marches. Sir H The ultimate accolade ; the bastards copy you! Bern He was 5 centuries ahead of the information overload era ! Surely there is someone like him ...still ? Copyright Emperors Academy Nov 25






Sir H and people kept misquoting him Bern Including Hitler Katie might say to them that
"he is not answering any more questions on the murderous peasants and, as she would, in the bedroom say to him, I think he has already said enough .Maybe -I can't shut him up - he does it for love of people and God and he feels responsible. h doesn't yet know he can't do everything and that having his table talk recorded means its a warts and all man you are meeting !

Arnold She would be saying --- Won't you listen and report him properly? Bern He really only wants to stop the new wars starting in his name and finish translating the whole bible into German because the people are loving hearing things in church that they can understand and sing to."

A comforting thought from Sir Humphrey

 When Antony Jay first had the idea of showing off what really happens up top, I wrote to him and said. " You realize that this exposure will make it even harder for us to do our job! While it's awfully fun serious to come home to see this on the TV, the fact is , that he will watch it too and can be expected to make our jobs much harder. The rest of this note is fiction but in his long letter back to me, the wonderful Antony did address the dilemmas of telling the truth in that context.  His letter is better than any award or recognition I could have received for quietly doing my public service job for over 3 decades.  "I mean Hacker will be alerted that he is really dumb and doesn't really know what he is doing. Far better perhaps to have him think he is God, without him realizing that he is not? KCMG   GCMG and all that !! Hacker is always at his worst when he learns/sees the next step out of kindergarten. Even after tutoring him many times in baby steps, it ...

Kindergarten

 If you the leader want to really feel at home in politics, remind yourself to not expect too much 1. If you are wise, you will take advice from me, ( I feed you) 2. If you are really wise,  you will always come back to me ( I need to spoon feed you )  3.If you are really really wise with the press and the the public,  you need to spoon feed them with stuff i spoon feed you.

Play up to the margins,the children the guilty the dying . or dare to set sail for the future ?

   Rowan     How can a party that allows a shallow inexperienced ideologue like Malcolm Turnbull become Prime Minister / I thought they were tougher than that  Mache  : It's what all parties have to do to appeal to the margins. Have a nice looking bloke who talks simplicities but knows nothing and can be pushed around when the election is over, when realism takes over again .   Rowan   So how did all these other wolves in sheep clothing get into the party?(Rebels who resisted the adoption of the religious Discrimination Bill 10th Feb 2022 )  Haven't the left got the numbers to do what they like ? Why do these people who think themselves progressive have to work amongst conservatives ?  Mache    yes they have numbers , but they don't have the intellectual grip.   They don't really know what they wanna do . The people can sometimes smell a dead end like they have with the Greens and their other worldly agendas...
