While the mongs are focussed on the results of our bid for the 2018 World Cup, a couple of excellent examples of how liberal and unstatist our new coalition overlords aren’t.
First, there will be regulation of what clothes shops are allowed to sell for children.
ORLY? Presumably, these children are feral orphans, who are turned loose into the world at 7 years old. They don’t have parents to raise them, guide them or retain responsibility for them. Enter Nanny. Presumably the same Nanny that Andrew Lansley says he’s making redundant from the Department of Health.
And as if that’s not bad enough,
The document also promised to create a new group of experts to tackle “low levels of body confidence” among children and teenagers. Ministers are concerned that many young boys and girls feel they have to live up to impossibly thin airbrushed images of celebrities in magazines and advertisements.
Oh. Okay. Because the 60s, 70s & 80s didn’t have skinny models.. anorexia wasn’t invented until 1997 after all..
And anyway, maybe ‘the kids’ feel that the images they have to live up to are impossibly thin because they graze on Greggs pasties and Krusty Cremes, and play Xbox all day.
In any case, what is is that the government thinks qualifies it to have opinions on any of these things, less still to start imposing whatever ludicrous, misguided and spendthrift schemes they have in mind?
Speaking of which…
I.. errr.. oh will you all just fuck right off.

How on earth do you make a workplace gay friendly?
All that is required is laws against discrimination in hiring practices based on uncontrollable circumstances of birth. Which already exist.
Speaking as a gay guy, though, I fucking hate camp men. I can’t fucking stand Stonewall either.
There really aren’t any problems facing gay and lesbian people any more.
Single-issue loons and identity groups, the new Conservatives are the party for you! Just like the last one in No. 10, strangely enough.
