If the British Tories did not exist, someone would have to invent the party. They are a riot, in a fun sense.
Sending text messages out to presumed illegals with the concise request to get out of the UK, as reported by The Guardian, is priceless. Well, not in money terms, and not to the Labour Party, but who cares.
The sweet explanation by outsourcing firm Capita, saying they use databases provided by the government and they stop contact with people who turn out to be in the database incorrectly, ah, this perfect.
The blogster almost felt a little bit of regret of the fact that it (gender neutral form) has never had any interest in stalking. Some small modification of the outsourced arguments, and voila presto, "oh, the name of my ex girlfriend, yes, it was in the database of girlfriends, and the telephone number, yes, it is from that time, no, I don't update my database of ex girlfriends very often, but now that she confirmed to the police, 'cause I wasn't quite sure you know, that she is not my girlfriend any more, of course, there won't be any more contact by me."
Despite of what you might construe as criticism in this post, there is no doubt that the use of technology by the British public sector is creative, so Keep Calm and Carry On Texting.
And maybe tell the folks incorrectly swept up in the text campaign that you are sorry and give them some warm hard cash for emotional distress.
10K per head should do.
Take it out of the Capitcha budget.
Or, even better, out of the badger cull budget. We are nice to badgers and citizens - nah, that sounded better in me head than read out loud.
Just be nice.
