egEvery week, Geert Hoste (63) gives his own unique and ironic view of the world in ‘Dag Allemaal’.
Since alcohol no longer flows for free from the taps in the Wetstraat, messages appear from politicians who are over their tea water. In the Hoste household, such gossip is immediately filed in the fake news folder. I don’t believe a word of it! It is as our unsurpassed Prime Minister Jan Jambon said in the Flemish Parliament: “The politicians have no lessons to learn from El Kaouakibi in order to defraud things.” Everything they do themselves, they do better. Even if they don’t do anything. From thieving aldermen to swindling ex-ministers…
As if politicians would spend their pensions for the unnecessary mandates they wanted to abolish on Wein, Weib und Gesang? Are there really conspiracy theorists who are convinced that the hardworking minister Quick is taking shots at 4 am? That can’t be true! Or that that person of good will, Theo, spends his Flemish money in a Brussels establishment and waters the flowers at five o’clock? Or that prayer card Conner, overcome by vodka Red Bull, railing against Roma in a café at six in the morning? People who believe that still believe in Sinterklaas! At 6 o’clock Conner waves goodbye to workers who take their ‘children’ to the daycare. He is at the school gates at 8 o’clock. At 9 o’clock he encourages the cashiers at Delhaize. Very down to earth, for sure!
Indeed, the representatives of the people themselves claim that they were fed up… But since when do we take the politicians at their word? Let them prove that they had too much blood alcohol! There are no breath tests or blood samples. Don’t just say, “They were filmed and it’s on Facebook.” You shouldn’t wave that around in court either. You then risk a fine yourself because you have watched such videos.
Mapped by the lawyers! They will wave when the point comes to the pee pole with: “My client was intoxicated, therefore incompetent. Not guilty!” I can already hear the lawyers of Bishop Vangheluwe and friends sobbing: “Your Honor, Mr. Pastor was fed up and could do nothing about it. It’s because of the obligatory mass wine on an empty stomach. He thought he was drinking water, but it had miraculously turned into Châteauneuf-du-Pape. So it’s not Rome’s fault either. It comes from even higher up.”
Why are there urinals against the church wall? For the whistle wine.
