Positive Change Within the Bounds of the Law

Now that we've absorbed a full twenty-four hours of stern lecturing on the destructive futility of empty gestures, it is only natural that our moral leaders should throw their well-fed weight behind yet one more campaign to clap for the NHS. It has, after all, been barely half a year since the electorate conferred a resounding victory upon the party that, with help from its little yellow accomplices, has spent the past decade gleefully kicking the NHS to pieces. Besides a few well-meaning dupes, the round of applause received the backing of the Archbishop of Canterbury who, as head of a church that includes one or two hypocrites besides the pious Theresa May, was no doubt relieved to get away from the sordid material subject of those who treat the descendants of Ham as Christ treated the Canaanites.
