Oh, man. The Sun today got to splash across its front page the headline WELFARE HAREMS.

I'll bet they needed to send some cigarettes to editorial after they saw that. MOSLIMS CHEATING WELFARE! It's like the second coming for a Sun reader. Plus it's got that lovely "Look what that gay marriage got us into!" subtext that they love so much.

That, along with the grumpy looking family who won the 6/49, plus DOCTOR HORROR's arrest in Nepal, got peoples off to their start this morning. Buried in para 5 is the line that "legally a welfare applicant can only claim one spouse".

This calls for a photo spread: "Beneath the Burkha"/

Check out the informed commentary from the local polity: "This is wrong. They should put a stop to this immediately!"

Now, you just can't buy that kind of well-considered insight! Wowza.

Thank you!

Thank you for reminding me once again why I largely ignore media news channels of all kinds.

I'm always simultaneously relieved and annoyed to find out that this sort of idiocy isn't solely confined to the US.
