Two thoughts
Any time a politician starts to talk about setting partisan differences aside to deal with an impending crisis, you can be ninety per cent sure that they're running scared because their party caused it. The other ten per cent mean it sincerely, and are unlikely to last long in politics.
The likelihood that one's opponents are incompetent is in inverse proportion to the amount of wealth and power any of them have (by their own efforts) amassed. If they seem to have been incompetent, it is almost certainly deliberate, and the only question is why. To assume incompetence is to invite defeat.
And on those warning notes, good night all.
