IT is 2pm on a Saturday. I’m rather stressed out writing this column as the deadline – to use a favourite phrase of one of my editors – was yesterday. I am further stressed out as at the rate I’m going, I might go to a sauna that is mesra gay (gay-friendly).

I worry that work stress might turn me gay. My anxiety is rooted in “scientific” parliamentary discourse.
