Government rape prevention

John [two-jags, ten-rings] Prescott, erstwhile deputy prime minister and all round government heavy, has weighed in [in the heavyweight class] supporting Blair of the Met on several occasions, mostly defending him over the murder of Jean Charles De Menezes, the Brazilian mistaken for a Metropolitan Police target, but he always dodged all questions with 'we'll have to wait for the enquiry, an independent inquiry, I might add, which we set up'. His most recent contribution to political thought has been [one for the ladies!] his suggestion that motorway service station's install hair dryers in their women's toilets. Like there must be so many women who think 'I could do with a shampoo and set' or even 'I have to change my hair colour' while travelling up the M1 for a business trip. Another challenged suggestion from this overweight ex-ship's steward is that phone boxes should have chargers for mobile phones installed in them. Phone boxes being tied up for hours [given anyone will stand in one for hours while their mobile recharges] would probably infuriate the 1% of the population who aren't talking on a mobile for at least 12 hours a day, a point which clearly hasn't occurred to pugilistic John the blob.

But the one that caps it all is both surreal and incredibly stupid on many levels. His suggestion that hedges and hedgerows across the country should have their bottom three feet removed so that persons up to no good and skulking could not do it behind a hedge and remain hidden. Women would feel so much safer if they could see the hedge they were walking past harboured no rapist. How the top part of the hedge would remain in the air without its bottom was not explained by the not too bright Ms Prescott who was probably distractedd by thoughts of dinner.

Escaping limbo-dancing sheep could also pose a serious problem to traffic, and fill freezers across the country. As hedges continue to grow, a government-funded hedge squad would have to be formed with a 'right to cut' policy, eqipped with low-level slicing machines, and set the task of keeping Britain's hedgerows unfit for rapists. A bit like the Firth bridge, they'd never stop, working their way round the country.
