(laugh) I hope that "Give Up" sign in your icon is not prophetic.

it's funny because it's true.

I love the "rusting padlock" picture even though it's only actually on a tiny local news site -- it's a classic "closed factory" strike picture. Except obviously the strike's onyl been going on for an hour -- that's some fast rusting.

I deliberately avoided the news for the sake of my blood pressure yesterday, but the one tiny clip I saw whilst changing channels was of a padlocked gate! OK, it wasn't rusty, but still...

This is brilliant. And deeply depressing.

Indeed -- sad times.

Please do!

Good grief- it's going viral. I've just seen this reposted by someone who isn't on Steer's friends list...

(excellent post by the way...)
