If Christmas songs fall foul of Labour's 'banter ban', Christmas carols ? with their 'offensive' assertions of the divinity of Christ that are deemed blasphemous by Islam ? are even more likely to, says Julian Mann.

Keir Starmer is preparing to tie Britain to the EU's Net Zero plans in a move that would impose radically stricter 'green' energy targets on homes and businesses, leading to further deindustrialisation and impoverishment.

Ribbid Ribbid Ribbid

category international | environment | other press author Wednesday April 27, 2005 13:16author by hogworts Report this post to the editors

for verily they are toads, and they will pop.

To mark the anniverary of Hans Christian Anderson, and the calls by Shroeder to support this immoral EU constitution-
unknown forces have caused more than a thousand toads, (which belong to the same genus as frogs) to leave the small pond of Altona in Hamburg, and spontanously explode.

This is fatal.

The Public are being asked not to go into the parks.
they have no idea what they have done
they have no idea what they have done

The experts are baffled, this is because thanks to several generations of specialised education, there are no longer the sort of minds to be found in the average university who can answer questions like-

"Dr, why are the toads exploding?"

Thus, the specialist educationalist from the departments of Toadery, and Biotech R&D, and Multi-national-corporation management courses have come up with nothing better than -

"it could be fungus".
