Discussion
The gubberment in response to the overwhelming distress and and suffering caused by the announcement of the death of great music legend Michael Jackson (rent a crowd speeding to London as we speak to demonstrate against the car drivers and Tory voters who were obviously implicit in his death) have announced a state of emergency and a suspension of the democratic process for a period of 1 year while they think of a way of extending it further.

It looks like BBC expenses will be forgotten - what else do we think will be buried today?

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei told Siyasat-e-Ruz newspaper:
“Brown is one of the most inefficient politicians of England who has witnessed cases of financial corruption in his cabinet … and has moved his country towards collapse and destruction…”
