I have been saying for some time that the UK seems determined to become the first country in history to impose economic sanctions on itself, and that it's no wonder that masochism used to be called 'la vice anglaise'. I heard an even stronger expression recently: 'The UK may end up as the first country to receive a Darwin Award!'

Pure madness.
