What did you do when you first heard about it? Did you just sit around and stare into space for a bit, or did you try to find out more? The first thing I did was head to the TV so that I could see the news and I'm just an ordinary bloke. The leader of your country did nothing. His reaction was completely irrational.

We'll never know if there was any difference he could've made as he never even tried.
