Where's Sweeney? *
The British Government, in its infinite wisdom (I'm being ironic here), has ruled that henceforth, unmarked police cars are to carry No Smoking signs.
This should not hamper the police in the execution of their duties, according to a spokesman.
Hmmmm. Rearrange these words to form a well-known phrase or saying: Fucking mental are you?
Update: Mr Farty has been suffering from Premature Publication, which may well be the subject of a future post...
Talking like Yoda have I been. Anyway, my point is that we are increasingly being run by a stupidocracy. How the feck did these people ever get to be in charge of what we can and can't do? It's not like we all live in Burma. Or are these the least worst of a bad bunch? How I wish there was a section on polling forms for "None of the above" - he'd get my vote.
The new ruling also means that anyone caught smoking inside an unmarked police car - stay with me, folks - should be arrested.
"Yes, I know I already arrested you for VAT fraud, but now I'm arresting you again, for attempted murder. People have to inhale your carcinogenic second-hand smoke, you know! Oh, and attempted suicide. That's illegal too."
One day, nobody will do anything stupid and I'll have nothing to blog about.
But not this day.
