Dire warnings of economic collapse endlessly repeated, just as weapons of mass destruction and forty five minutes.
The entire establishment of political appointees telling us that it has nothing to do with oil, or JP Morgan, or Goldman Sachs. These are not the droids you are looking for.
We are told to trust the experts, or rather the political appointees who toady up to the establishment.
And then of course there is an undemocratic state whose unelected leader seeks regional domination and speaks in belligerent Tones about his neighbours.
If Boris is bumped off in the next couple of weeks then the parallels will be remarkable!
