In all my time as a socialist I have never felt so isolated about an
issue as I have about the recently canonised St. Di

My involuntary response when hearing the news on Sunday was to let out a
rousing cheer. Evberyone around me looked at me like I was some sort of
silicon-based lifeform from the other side of the galaxy.

It has provided an interesting little dilemma for the stuck-up at work
who in one moment slag off the masses (mainly working class women) who
buy the trashy mags that pay the paparazzi, and in the other rush out to
buy the same mags full off their hypocritical memorials.

Thanks Hugh... keep the satire coming. I for one definitely need it. We
thought of running for the front page of our next edition of our
socialist mag - "Dead as a Dodi" what do you think?
