The National Health Service

A system operating in the UK whereby ta payers contribute towards the health care of all, including foreigners and everyone who happens to be in the UK at the time of them needing treatment.

If you had voted for Churchill in 1945, and not that Labour dick Clement Atlee, we wouldn't have this expensive service; which is a boon only to those who abuse it.

robin hood

A myth based on several people. In actuality, only one of the charactors on whom the stories are based ever gave to the poor, after taking a share for himself. Also, maid Marrian did not exist in the same time as any of them, and Robin was in fact very merry in the company of men in tights, nudge nudge wink wink.

Today, being a Robin Hood is all about taking from the haves, to deliver to the have nots. This is actually rather communist.

The government wants to take my hard earned money to give to foreigners who haven't done a day's work in their lives. They think they're robin hood or something. Well fuck them.

American Idol

TV Talent show for singers with little or no longevity in their career after being awarded a contract. An easy way to get a record contract while making a bunch of rich peeps a lot fo money.


After convincing the British public that they'll watch any old shit with pop idol, Simon Cowell sailed the atlantic to the crap-tv-with-high-ratings heaven that is the United States of America. With five times the audience, he was able to rake in five times the revenue. But due to the American publics willingness to indulge in this shit (I'll admit after watching a total of ten minutes of this, and 20 of the origianal, american idol was slightly better), he made ten times that amount. This was also due to selling off the rights to all manor of countries around the world.

If he didn't do american Idol, Simon would be stuck with nothing more than a London pad and his Aston Martin. Because of American Idol, he's got a bunch of other stuff too.
