British Values Catching On

France's government, which appears to be Socialist after the style of Theresa May, has provoked protests from students by deporting a fifteen-year-old girl to Kosovo. Her family are Roma and left the country five years ago under the delusion that the rest of Europe would be more welcoming; and their expulsion has given rise to accusations of tarnishing France's image as a champion of human rights - an image that is nearly as impressive as Britain's own. With a degree of tact that must have gladdened the hearts of those who originated our Powellite Pantechnicon programme, the girl was arrested in front of her classmates while on a field trip. Her fellow students' reaction may possibly explain why these matters are, for preference, generally settled in the beneficiary's home at around three in the morning.
