Samizdata quote of the day
Perry de Havilland (London)  Slogans/quotations

Yes, of course you socialists are more concerned about the poor... your policies create so many of them!
- Part of a heated conversation overheard at another table during lunch at The Chelsea Bun restaurant

That reminds me of the old story about the union leader visiting the USSR and a soviet citizen remarked to a US reporter that he (the union official) seemed to be very concerned about the working class. The US reporter replied: "Yeah, that's how he avoids being part of it."

Just when the Islamic community in France were at their lowest level of support a new Champion for their cause has surfaced! He is none other than the Mayor of London KEN LIVINGSTON this wonderful Champion who has been unable to produce a balanced budget for his city is now chastizing the french government for its policy on Head scarves and is advising them that this policy could lead to much discontent by the Islamic community in France and could lead to catastrophic consequences. Perhaps he could suggest a policy that should be adopted by the Islamic community that would stop the slaughter of innocents throughout the world. Now that might be something worthwhile doing!!!
