Heil Livingstone

Red Ken is turning into a real dictator back in London. To wit : today he announced that Londoners must now:
- take showers, not baths
- downgrade power showers to regular showers
- don't flush the toilet if they've only taken a piss
- not wash vegetables under running water
- not run the washing machine unless it's full

Zieg Heil, Herr Livingstone! Let the Londoners all fall sick due to the lack of cleanliness you demand from them.

God Forbid you should actually do something to help Londoners continue to have a good water supply. After all, London is only in the wettest part of the country, on a river, upstream from the sea. Obviously there's simply nothing at all that the mayor can do. Best blame the citizen instead.

I bet you $100 this is the predecessor to yet another tax - water usage tax. I bet that by this time next year, Londoners will be taxed or fined if they use more than 'x' amount of water per household per day.

Speaking of Red, it seems that history is being obliterated by political correctness now too. Yesterday was the 200th Anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar. The largest re-enactment of its kind took place in the English channel where the British defeated the French and Spanish navies. Well, sort of. Because they didn't want to offend anyone, the re-enactment was done with a blue fleet fighting a red fleet.
As one descendent of Nelson put it : "the idea of the blue team fighting the red team is pretty stupid. I am sure the French and Spanish are adult enough to appreciate we did win that battle."
But no. In the black light of political correctness, the powers-that-be decided it would simply be too offensive to show the British beating the French, so away with the country names and in with the colours.

(rolls eyes). Typical. You know what - I was going to buy a new domain name called fuckpoliticalcorrectness.com but someone beat me to it.
