Watching the news today, I almost let a Douglas Hogg moment slip my observation (you know, the Tory minister who force fed his daughter beef burgers on camera in the middle of the Mad Cow episode of way-back-then).
The item was about the government work program to find jobs for people, which they admitted hadn't done as well as they had hoped, as the recession has ambushed them.
Anyway, included was a pastiche where 2 rescued souls were prepped camera-side to evangelise how they had been coached and built up to find themselves jobs, so were eternally grateful...
as postal workers...
... in November/December...
Hmmm...
And there beamed Tory minister (what's the point of naming them these days?) cooing over his foundlings...
You can't make it up...
