Beyond satire

Satirists might just as well pack their bags at the moment.

No sooner has one had a Swiftean moment than we read that the government has implemented it.

This weekend revealed that the FSA is to award itself £10m of bonuses.

And we have just heard that Tessa Jowell is attempting to remove gender differences from the Olympics by, for example, allowing women to compete in heavyweight wrestling.

I’d be tempted to suggest that the Secretary of State for Health has announced that men will soon be able to have babies, but there’s no point.

It’s probably already in the pipeline.
