Bigger better big stick
Coming soon: bad food and drink tax.
Apparently. There's a big, big stick lobby that wants to tax what's
bad for us. Cod 'n' chips tax, kebab tax. That sort of thing. Will
there be a sliding scale? Organic cos lettuce tax < non-organic
iceberg < mixed non-organic leaves with dressing? What about those
things with the sachets that make them go from very good (health-wise
(very bad taste-wise)) to very bad (health-wise (very good,
taste-wise)) in an instant? Could we save up unused sachets of
monosodium glutimate and gloop of various varieties and return them
to HMRC for a rebate? What about those little blue bags of salt in
plain crisps (I never use those). What about stuff that's good in
small doses (we're told) like red wine and coffee; but bad in larger
ones? Will there be rationing cards and an increasing tax curve?
Really guys, time to butt out. You've
sold off the sports pitches, you've killed pubs. Now you're going for
the cafe and the full English breakfast. Please. Leave us alone.
King Kenny becomes 'king Kenny
Oh my god, they've sacked Kenny.
Carling Cup good. FA Cup finalists good. Lose bad. League bad. Get
new manager.
Divs. Can I make a suggestion? Villa
want a new bloke, quick. You lot want someone asap. No matter what
you lot do, it won't make any difference in the short-, medium- or
long term. So do a straight swap. Dag to Villa, scrotum-face to
Liverpool. Job done, sorted. Whatever else Villa and Pool do, it'll
not be significantly different. Bold prediction time: next season, no
matter what, 'pool will slip further and Villa will finish bottom
half.
