This morning

René Magritte, Hegel's Holiday

As anyone who has shared a breakfast table with me, or indeed who has had the misfortune to attend one of my 9am lectures, will know, regardless of when I get up, I am not fully awake before 10am. So it's quite unusual for me to find myself laughing out loud on first sight of the morning's newspaper, but it happened this morning when this image appeared at the top of the front page of the Independent.
