Milk and Apples
The gravy train is no longer figurative. Today, for the first time, a special service was run to ferry Eurocrats from Brussels to Strasbourg - part of the ludicrous monthly peregrination that costs taxpayers €200 million a year. Everything that needs saying about this has already been said. So I leave the final word to Squealer from Animal Farm (thanks to Terry Stewart for the tip): Comrades!" he cried. "You do not imagine, I hope, that we pigs are doing this in a spirit of selfishness and privilege? Many of us actually dislike milk and apples. I dislike them myself. Our sole object in taking these things is to preserve our health. Milk and apples (this has been proved by Science, comrades) contain substances absolutely necessary to the well-being of a pig. We pigs are brainworkers. The whole management and organisation of this farm depend on us. Day and night we are watching over your welfare. It is for your sake that we drink that milk and eat those apples." http://tinyurl.com/62blqx
