On hearing our Parliament is to be called back into service a few weeks earlier to deal with the ISIS crises, I suddenly realised that they are not debating in the Summer time. In fact they only return to work as Autumn starts and Winter looms. All the bad winter weather and dark short days must affect the mood of politicians as they argue. Maybe if they met during the
Summer months things may be a bit less confrontational and a little more
positive. In genuinely
believe the energy of Summer would do them the world of good and would lead to more co-operation in getting this country back to where it was when I left school.
