It's political correctness gone mad! Or something.
The Sun, obviously finding that it can't fill ALL it's pages with the detailed sexual history of this woman that's slept with David Beckham or something (I haven't being paying much attention because it's essentially a very dull story), has decided to fume about a prison that is giving it's inmates a Cadbury's Creme Egg each. The paper, for whom we should rename the Manics song as 'IfTheSunWereForcedtoKeepASenseOfProportion It'sWorldWouldFallApart', seems to think that the prison spending, by my working, £152.28 on sweets the size of a regular egg, is bigger news than the war in Iraq, where daily spending by the UK Army dwarfs that figure, AND they don't get Easter Eggs!
