Pendine
Bombshell
By John Morgan 14/02/03
The Ministry of Defence has warned residents at Pendine that they may be forced to leave their homes to make way for missile testing. These people only have themselves to blame, for living near a firing range in the first place. We have more sympathy for the poor, defenceless sheep, who have enough to worry about from male sexual deviants - without having shrapnel lodged up their backsides too. Tourists of terror
More controversy this month as civil liberties groups attack the Welsh Archbishop, Rowan Williams, and his Tory-stance on detaining asylum seekers. We applaud you Rowan, but feel the need for even tougher measures: every tourist entering the country should be incarcerated for 48 hours, while the authorities check out their potential terrorist links. In fact, even British citizens returning from abroad should be quizzed by police - who knows what subversive ways they might catch off Johnny Foreigner.
The U.N. hopes to form a buffer zone around the Welsh castles of Conwy, Harlech, Beaumaris and Caernarfon. This has nothing to do with preventing terrorism, but is simply a plan to stop new buildings obscuring the views of these world heritage sites. Local entrepreneur, and newly converted nationalist, Hywel Protheroe, told Talk Wales that "far from being protected, these symbols of former English imperialism should be knocked down and replaced by housing for local people. As a builder, I'm just the person to help out."
Very P.C.
Finally, of all the people to be mistakenly given an £80 million overdraft, it had to be a copper! P.C. Clive Rees of Llandridnodd pointed out the error and refused to name the bank in question to save them from embarrassment - doesn't it bring a tear to your eye! Shame then it wasn't someone less scrupulous who ran off to South America with all the loot. Then, we could all have had a good laugh at the bank's expense - so to speak! |
