compare and contrast

As the Countess de Fortuna The Lady Isabella de Fortesque-Smythe put down today's copy of the Telegraph she wondered to herself why the "Back to Basics" message of the Conservative Party under John Major was so loudly vilified by the left wing. Surely the majority of people would be happier if their lives weren't so complicated? She was about to reach for the intercom to order another pot of coffee from the kitchens when she remembered the servants had been given the day off, sighed, adjusted the plaid twin-set that had originally been bought by her great-great grandmother on Saville Row, and pottered off to see if she could make the kettle work herself.


As Spud Jones put down today's copy of the Guardian he wondered to himself why the right wing 'deniers' are refusing to accept that climate change is real and caused by the excesses of humanity. Surely the majority of people would be happier if their lives weren't so complicated? Remembering that he'd run out of ethically grown coffee beans because the eco delivery van had run out of biofuel yesterday he sighed, adjusted the hemp trousers he'd bought from the charity shop, and pottered into the kitchen of his carbon nuetral house to see if he could recycle one last cup from yesterday's grinds.
