Meedja on the Insanity Pills
The Breakdown of Society (TM)
The Conservatives can call off the search, for thanks to the Daily Mail and Fay Wheldon (who used to be good value before she started believing her own pronouncements) we have found the Root Of All Evil in British society. Oh yes, Fay has seen the sign of the Beast and it is writ large ... on the foreheads of the Spice Girls.
Well, the Devil has got awfully inventive recently in terms of his chosen vessels:
Think back to those brilliant, suggestive, addictive pop songs of ten years back, when they swept across the nation's playgrounds: "Well it's Saturday night, You know the feeling is right, Don't you know we'll get so high."
Yeah! Grope, vomit, whoops: aren't we having fun?
A decade on, the message has seeped deep into the culture, with the results plain for all to see on every High Street on, yes, any Saturday night.
The destruction of society and the end of morality as we know it isn't bad going for five tone deaf warblers with a questionable taste in accessories, is it? We suggest that the Gord immediately executes the Spice Girls.
