Calm Down, Dear Leader

David Cameron got into some hot water last year at Prime Minister's Questions (PMQs) - by advising an opposition MP (Angela Eagle) to 'calm down, dear' - as the atmosphere in the House of Commons became somewhat overheated.  

But maybe the PM's put down could be put to good use in North Korea where the 'Dear Leader' - Kim Jong-un - is behaving in the most bellicose fashion and is threatening to lose the plot altogether.

Now Russia and China have urged both sides to 'Calm Down, Dears' - which is a bit pathetic.

Because it's not America and South Korea who are threatening their neighbours with nuclear strikes - and showing war-like mock-up images of the White House in flames - on state-controlled television in North Korea.

So while it's pretty clear to everyone outside North Korea that the Kim Dynasty - which runs the country in the manner of a religious cult - is dangerously out of control.

The real question is when will China as it biggest ally step in, stop playing games and tell Kim Jong-un - in no uncertain terms - to get back in his box.

Because while people can have a good laugh at the antics of the Dear Leader - the reality is that he's very unstable and deluded - which makes him capable of almost anything.
