What's wrong with this picture?

Opening my paper, I see:

Peter Drummond, who grabbed a heroin dealer's stash and flushed it down the toilet because he was "ruining my family" was jailed for two months by some legal twat instead of getting a medal.

He was told, "You should have contacted the police".

Why bother? They would have sent the guy for counselling when what he really needs is the shit kicking out of him.

Meanwhile, on another page I see the Golden Bliar got an award worth £700,000 for "leadership" - as in leading Britain into Iraq/Afghanistan/down the drain - whatever.

And now Mr. David Mills, conveniently estranged husband of Tessa Jowls our "Olympics Minister" is found guilty in Milan of accepting a bribe of some £400,000 from the Bliar's friend Silvio Berlusconi and sentenced to four-and-a-half years in jail. Of course, Tessa had no idea where all that money was coming from. As if.

By the way, why an Olympics Minister? Haven't we pissed away enough money without her help already? And since she seems to have such surprisingly little interest in money anyhow, couldn't she be given a job more suited to her ability - say, Minister for Toilets?
