The country is going to Hell in a handbag

It has been reported today that six drug addicts have won an out of court settlement from the Government. It is not because they were used for illegal experiments. Its because they were made to go cold turkey when sent to jail for breaking the law. That's right, the poor little angels were deprived of smack when sent to prison. Apparently this breached the poor fella's human rights. Check the BBC report here; http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6142416.stm. Can someone explain to me how 6 convicted criminals get a cash "reward" for being denied something in jail that is against the law????? To top it all the six were used as a test case, and the true figure to be compensated is 198! A Prison Trust Reformer has stated this may pave the way for alternatives to prison for petty criminals who are addicts. What does she suggest? Perhaps a fortnight in the Maldives? What about Disney Land? Well I just happen to have a quite radical proposal to remedy the situation, and I reckon in the long run it will save thousands of pounds and keep everybody happy. Seeing as we are currently entrenched in Afghanistan, do a deal with the local Heroin dealers for the purest, hardcore shit that they can get. Hire a big hall, invite all the wastrels and no-hopers to fill their boots, and fast track them on to the next life in a manner to their liking. Don't feel sorry for them. Everybody knows what this garbage does to you, yet still they choose this "lifestyle". You cant help those that won't help themselves.

    The 198 are to split £750,000 between themselves. This is roughly £3,800 each.

    A SQUIRRELS TALE

    REST OF THE WORLD VERSION:

    The squirrel works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building and
    improving his house and laying up supplies for the winter.

    The grasshopper thinks he's a fool, and laughs and dances and plays the
    summer away.

    Come winter, the squirrel is warm and well fed.

    The shivering grasshopper has no food or shelter, so he dies out in the
    cold.

    THE END


    THE U.K. VERSION:

    The squirrel works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his
    house and laying up supplies for the winter.

    The grasshopper thinks he's a fool, and laughs and dances and plays the
    summer away.

    Come winter, the squirrel is warm and well fed.

    A social worker finds the shivering grasshopper, calls a press conference
    and demands to know why the squirrel should be allowed to be warm and well
    fed while others less fortunate, like the grasshopper, are cold and
    starving.

    The BBC shows up to provide live coverage of the shivering grasshopper;
    with cuts to a video of the squirrel in his comfortable warm home with a
    table laden with food.

    The British press inform people that they should be ashamed that in a
    country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper is allowed to suffer so,
    while others have plenty.

    The Labour Party, Greenpeace, Animal Rights and The Grasshopper Council of
    GB demonstrate in front of the squirrel's house.

    The BBC, interrupting a cultural festival special from Notting Hill with
    breaking news, broadcasts a multi cultural choir singing "We Shall
    Overcome".

    Ken Livingstone rants in an interview with Trevor McDonald that the
    squirrel got rich off the backs of grasshoppers, and calls for an immediate
    tax hike on the squirrel to make him pay his "fair share" and increases the
    charge for squirrels to enter inner London.

    In response to pressure from the media, the Government drafts the Economic
    Equity and Grasshopper Anti Discrimination Act, retroactive to the
    beginning of the summer.

    The squirrel's taxes are reassessed.

    He is taken to court and fined for failing to hire grasshoppers as builders
    for the work he was doing on his home and an additional fine for contempt
    when he told the court the grasshopper did not want to work.

    The grasshopper is provided with a council house, financial aid to furnish
    it and an account with a local taxi firm to ensure he can be socially
    mobile. The squirrel's food is seized and re distributed to the more needy
    members of society, in this case the grasshopper.

    Without enough money to buy more food, to pay the fine and his newly
    imposed retroactive taxes, the squirrel has to downsize and start building
    a new home.

    The local authority takes over his old home and utilises it as a temporary
    home for asylum seeking cats who had hijacked a plane to get to Britain as
    they had to share their country of origin with mice. On arrival they tried
    to blow up the airport because of Britain's apparent love of dogs.

    The cats had been arrested for the international offence of hijacking and
    attempted bombing but were immediately released because the police fed them
    pilchards instead of salmon whilst in custody.

    Initial moves to then return them to their own country were abandoned
    because it was feared they would face death by the mice. The cats devise
    and start a scam to obtain money from people's credit cards.

    A Panorama special shows the grasshopper finishing up the last of the
    squirrel's food, though spring is still months away, while the council
    house he is in, crumbles around him because he hasn't bothered to maintain
    the house.

    He is shown to be taking drugs. Inadequate government funding is blamed for
    the grasshopper's drug 'illness'.

    The cats seek recompense in the British courts for their treatment since
    arrival in UK.

    The grasshopper gets arrested for stabbing an old dog during a burglary to
    get money for his drugs habit. He is imprisoned but released immediately
    because he has been in custody for a few weeks.

    He is placed in the care of the probation service to monitor and supervise
    him. Within a few weeks he has killed a guinea pig in a botched robbery.

    A commission of enquiry, that will eventually cost £10,000,000 and state
    the obvious, is set up.

    Additional money is put into funding a drug rehabilitation scheme for
    grasshoppers and legal aid for lawyers representing asylum seekers is
    increased.

    The asylum-seeking cats are praised by the government for enriching
    Britain's multicultural diversity and dogs are criticised by the government
    for failing to befriend the cats.

    The grasshopper dies of a drug overdose. The usual sections of the press
    blame it on the obvious failure of government to address the root causes of
    despair arising from social inequity and his traumatic experience of
    prison.

    They call for the resignation of a minister.

    The cats are paid a million pounds each because their rights were infringed
    when the government failed to inform them there were mice in the United
    Kingdom.

    The squirrel, the dogs and the victims of the hijacking, the bombing, the
    burglaries and robberies have to pay an additional percentage on their
    credit cards to cover losses, their taxes are increased to pay for law and
    order and they are told that they will have to work beyond 65 because of a
    shortfall in government funds.

    THE END

    Would the author of "SQUIRRELS TALE" please make themselves known because I intend to sue you.

    The reason?

    You have failed to mention otters in this story, I therefore declare that you are an otterist slurring the good name of otters by obmitting to mention (and therefore not acknowledging the existance of) otters!

    I have already spoken to legal aid and have been assured of full monetary assistance to support my case.

    I have also engaged the services of a one-armed, black-lesbian human/civil/otter rights lawyer.

    An "undisclosed" out of court settlement would be considered (to by heroin) providing a full apology to the NCO (National Council of Otters) is published in the socialist magazine.

    I await your response...........


    ..... which better be soon or aggravated charges of mental abuse and otter cruelty will also be implied.
