I know you can't but don't move!

One of the funnier things I saw last week was not Comic Relief (after 10pm it was immensely shit) but the story of Victor Anichebe and his friend getting into trouble with the law outside a jewellery shop. The police presumably saw the two men as suspicious characters as they looked at the jewellery on display in the window. Five officers swooped on the suspicious pair and handcuffed Anichebe’s friend, told Anichebe not to move, and confiscated his getaway aid.
Unfortunately for cops Victor Anichebe is a Premiership footballer with Everton who earns £15,000 per week. When the pair told the police this they didn’t believe them and preceded to arrests them, until one of the cops realised there mistake. What idiots...it didn’t help the police when it was revealed that Anichebe was wearing a cast around his leg from an injury and the getaway aid that the police quickly confiscated from him.... his fucking crutches.

Here’s something to bring you down, the government’s top medical advisor has drawn up plans for a minimum price on alcohol. Professor Sir Liam Donaldson is set to call for a ban on drinks being sold for less than 50p per alcoholic unit - it would mean most bottles of wine would cost at least £4.50. What complete horseshit, why are we the only country that thinks taxing something to the hilt or banning it is the only way of dealing with issues? The cheap and easy solution once again.
You see adverts for alcohol everywhere, football shirts, billboards, TV – the majority targeted at youngsters, ‘have you got a wkd side?’ shit I’ve been brainwashed... But will the government act on that? Course not; it’s just another way of filling their coffers – which they’ve spectacularly emptied recently.
