the madness

Here’s a grim tale i encountered on my travels: during a visit by Blairite school inspectors, a nursery owner prevented a 2-year old toddler from attacking a baby with a toy brick; the inspectors promptly reported her to the police for ‘assault’. While she was vindicated, i’m willing to bet these school inspectors, instead of being put in the stocks for a few weeks, have been promoted to yet higher positions of unjustified authority. The nursery owner stated:
“I was talking to two council workers, who had their back to the play area, when I saw a little girl pick up a large toy brick and hit the baby over the head,” she said. “She was about to do it again when I rushed into the room to stop her.
“I went over and as the child saw me she dropped the brick and started crying. I took her by the hand and moved her to a chair, sat her down, and said to her to sit quietly and think about what she had just done.
“I went back to see if the baby was OK and, thankfully, she was fine. I was about to go back to the little girl to have a talk with her but one of the council workers had intervened and was cuddling her.”
What an excellent idea - a child is prevented from attacking a baby, so the Blairite inspector cuddles the child to let her know that it’s okay to hit babies with bricks, and then, not content with this Politically Correct message, proceeds to charge the baby’s defender with assault.
And people ask why i’m so paranoid and suspicious of the State…
