Do They mean Us? (2)

Nice to see that there's going to be a "CrackDown" on a certain type of abuse (not drug-induced).

Until you read on and discover that this will consist of merely "investigating the cost" of the abuse. A hint of the official outcome of the investigation is even disclosed by a Government Minister, who says that "it is not acceptable".

In other words, all Down & no Crack!

As usual, here in Somerset we know the outcome of the investigation before it even starts. The answer, of course, is £200,000,000.

And the miserable yokels are still crying into their cider down at the Dog & Duck. Knowing that we will be able to say "we told you so" is no comfort at all.
