Spot The Difference

Ok, I know I'm a little behind the "News" here in my own little world. But, hey, so what?

To be honest, I try to avoid watching or reading the "News" whenever possible. It's bad for my anxiety.

A couple of months ago I read the copy of The Times that was delivered free with our Ocado grocery delivery.

By the way, Ocado are streets ahead - sometimes literally - of Tesco and Sainsbury's at delivering the food you ordered, on time (one of the other's once delivered a whole day late), without getting bleach or washing up liquid all over your bread and flour (they put them in different bags), providing reasonable substitutes if they don't have what you wanted (Tesco once claimed to have no bread, milk or eggs in their store at all, which, frankly I find unbelievable and an insult to my intelligence) and generally just being rather nice about everything.

Anyway, I digress.

It was about the time of the Iranian elections or just after. 16 June, actually. The preposterous David Aaronovitch was commenting on a picture of a man being beaten up by Iranian police, suggesting somehow that superior white/western/civilsed nations might do something as a result of this offensive image:

Ironically enough, on the previous page was the pictorial of the Nottingham Police "Service" Tasering of a man lying on the gound while onlookers watched horrified and pleading with them to stop. There's a video of this:

Now, if only the police were more like Ocado, there'd be no more broken (l)eg(g)s, spilt milk/blood, and they could really provide a useful service to the community.
