On the ball

As the Prime Minister has used an analogy by comparing the present economic situation to the injured foot of the footballer Wayne Rooney, perhaps the public can also utilise a football analogy by comparing the present government's performances to many of the UK's resultant problems. This alone should justify them all being provided with a "free transfer" as they are totally out of touch with the concerns of the general public.
