Your Freedom...

The new-ish Con-Dem muppet deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg has been jolly busy lately. Among the little jobs he has been given by scary plastic-surgery disaster ubermensch David Cameron is fronting up one of those breathtakingly patronising websites that governments like to put up as a sop to the notion of "consultation".

In their own words: "We're working to create a more open and less intrusive society. We want to restore Britain’s traditions of freedom and fairness, and free our society of unnecessary laws and regulations – both for individuals and businesses."

The Your Freedom site (oddly enough lacking the sub-title "... and Our Freedom To Ignore The Lot of You") will "...[give] you the chance to suggest how we can do this. Your ideas will inform government policy and some of your proposals could end up making it into bills we bring before Parliament to change the law."

The proposal illustrated above - suggested by some hooligan  - sadly has already fallen foul of the website's minions moderators. But if you wish to argue for curbs on the liberty of dark-skinned immigrants, the return of hanging, or the ritual disembowelment of foxes, then you're probably on safer ground.

wildtalents does not, of course, sanction the posting of frivolous ideas on the website.
