| Wha’s like us when it comes to nuclear waste? Gey few and
they’re all developing suspicious haematomas! Yes, it's glowing good news this
week as NIREX, the government agency in charge of sweeping nuclear waste under the carpet
then walking away while whistling in an exaggeratedly casual manner, report that Scotland
is in line to host even more nuclear waste!
And the good news is that this bounty has nothing to do with Mad Tony’s decision
to build more nuclear power stations! Oh no, this eagerly anticipated batch is merely the
detritus emanating from decommissioning the current set of slow-acting H-Bombs. |
For if Mad Tony has his way and long after he’s consigned to
the (nuclear) dustbin of history, Scotland will still be the grateful recipient of the old
glow in the dark. But spokesrods for the nuclear industry sounded a note of caution over
safety: "Until the government programme comes up with cast-iron guarantees that
whatever happens we’ll still be handed enormous scads of other people’s money
we’ll be sceptical on safety grounds. Mainly to do with the well-being of our profit
margins."
Elsewhere on planet politics, In the Line Of Fire Immigration Minister Tony McNulty
promised |
that the scandal over the non- deportation of foreign criminals will
not distract him from his central task - acting like a fuckin’ Nazi as Minister for
deporting asylum seekers. For unlike criminals who disappear like snaw off a dyke,
asylum seekers helpfully stay in one place, living quietly, trying to make a life for
themselves and therefore making them easy to (ahem) "catch".
Speaking exclusively to The JT, McNulty said : "I’d just like to thank these
peaceable, law-abiding people for making it easy for us to go round to their houses at
dawn and throw them on this first available plane." |
