Ed Davey’s silliness

Ed Davey, a man with even less experience than Clegg, has said this at down at the seaside:

It’s time for tea with the Taleban - and tea with the multitude of local tribal Afghan insurgent leaders.

But tea is actually the most potent drug in Afghanistan if you want peace. It’s how peace deals have been struck in Afghanistan down the ages.

Of course we going to talk to the Taliban.  You just don't say it, except if you are a member of the ‘no hope party’.
