Notes:
The Revolving Door: Someone is always coming in or going out. Different people all the time. Never ending.
Whoever steps into the new shoes must certainly feel the hand of fate on his shoulder: It means that Fate or Destiny is about to let him know that whatever he does is important.

What is it with Japan and their prime ministers? Four changes in as many years, that has to be quite a record! Whoever steps into the new shoes must certainly feel the hand of fate on his shoulder. One of the positive things about so many changes, though, is that it makes Japanese politics slightly interesting. A politician called Naoto Kan has won the position of being Japan’s next prime minister. I can already see the headlines in the newspapers: “Yes, we Kan!” Unfortunately I fear that the reply will soon be “No, he Kan’t .” (by Prof. Simon Smith)
