I sat watching last night with my jaw hanging open.

It was quite obvious that this man speaks without knowing what he's going to say next, and when it comes out he doesn't understand what he's just said. He is clearly mentally unbalanced (not a full bob as we say Up North) and if he lived alone in a community he would need a full-time carer.

I don't think I've eve-r seen such a naked display of rampant personality disfunction and self-delusion on live TV before. To celebrate I poured another tincture of Famous Grouse and toasted his rapid and very imminent decline into total senility. The guy's shelf-life is over.
