Nasta - This came from an Australian source (very Australian outlook!)
and reproduced in a local newspaper here in Wales, The Daily Post. No
doubt, John Hitchcock will suddenly stop using the "John in Wales"
signature after this:
"NEWSFLASH...EVERYONE TO BE SLAUGHTERED
In a precautionary measure the British government has decided to that,
in order to safeguard the future of of British farming, everyone in
the United Kingdom should be destroyed.
This policy was decided by the Prime Minister late last night at a
secret policy meeting in Gloucester in front of 500 angry farmers
bearing lit torches and waving pitchforks.
<large snip>
Mr Blair has concluded that the only sure fire way of protecting the
farmers is to ensure that all living things within a 100 mile (160km)
radius of the British Isles are immediately exterminated. The army and
police have been called in and the humane culling of men, women and
children is due to begin at midnight. It is expected that within days,
mass burning of villages will commence, with all people in Wales due
for destruction a week on wednesday.
A farming expert said these measures were ~a proportionate and
meeasured response to the crisis - the government's proposal is
entirely understandable and I support the government~ (as he booked a
flight to New Zealand)"
The sad part is, it's almost credible!
Now if only we could start applying the 'humane cull' to PCs (starting
with the 3 in my office at work!)........
