Wasting Police Time

Essex police have arrested a 20yo man for trying to organise a water fight, yes, a water fight. He was using facebook and his blackberry to arrange this violent and anarchic event and so had to be arrested. (my words) If ever police time was wasted, this was it and the arresting officers should be charged with it.                           Another item worth a mention is that Shell are revising upword, their estimate of how much oil has flooded, sorry, leaked into the north sea off the Aberdeenshire coast. BP on the other hand have informed the authorities that the oil leak in the gulf has started up again and they have hired a number of shrimp boats to place a boom around it.                                                                                                                                                      Now we come to Mervyn Kings policy of QE and the fact that the only people this policy has helped, is of course, the rich. Since the inception of QE, wages have fallen and profits have risen substantially. Need I say more. Still on financial issues, Osbourne and Clegg have teamed up to let Vodafone escape a two billion pound tax bill. YES A TWO BILLION POUND TAX BILL. I predict a peaceful demonstration. hang on a minute, that wasn't the title of a Kaiser Chiefs song.                                                                                                         Till next time. Unless I'm arrested for calling the law an ass.
