Britannia Meets Her Match

If liberation from the Brusso-Strasbourgian yoke means anything at all, it means the freedom to make our own laws and give a healthy Churchillian V-sign to all that namby-pamby nonsense about human rights. Accordingly, in the spirit of Britain's present generous-spirited world leadership, an Imperial territory has become the first to repeal equal rights for non-heterosexuals, backed up with full rah-rah from the dead-eyed warden's joke Foreign Secretary. While the Imperial Haystack went into hiding behind a junior ministerial filly, a Downing Street spokesbeing proclaimed that Britain's hands were tied. Her Majesty's Government, which abhors discrimination in all its forms and is hardly at all dependent on a handful of god-bothering homophobes to stay in office, has been unable to exercise its unfettered strength as a force for good, thanks to the rampant, overmastering might of world-bestriding Bermuda.
