French issue UK travel warnings: So now what technology are we about to be abused by?

As France issues a terror advice warning to those travelling here to the UK, we have to respond in the way that our conditioning has made us become accustomed, huh?

So, what will it be this time?

Pervy naked body scanners in the High Street?

Micro-chipped population?

Full body cavity screening outside any building open to the public?

Not worried about any twisted religious nutcases - real or imaginary.

Always very worried about the civil liberty abuses that tyrannical Government wants to bring in under the name of supposed terror threats.

That said, Blair has been talking about 'extremists' again. So they must exist. Like Saddam's WMDs which were set to destroy Britain inside forty-five minutes. They will find them in the Iraqi desert someday. They will. Honest.

Anyway, thanks France. If the threats from religious fruitcakes is real and not imaginary, one would have thought your citizens were safer here, considering. But do help yourself to trying to snatch some of our tourist trade back, won't you?

Tell you what, France. You send us all the immigrants that you don't want (as usual) and we'll let you steal billions in tourism from under our noses. How's about that as a fair deal between European Empire colleagues? Us being subserviant and awaiting your commands, and all...

Though we suppose there's some fair enough tit-for-tat in it.

All this talk - we were only just warned that: "There has been speculation that Osama bin Laden could be masterminding the latest plots personally."

Really? Which incarnation of Satsuma would this be? How many more times is he going to be killed? What is it with him? Has he stolen the secret of Timelord regeneration from Dr. Who? And is Dr. Who still being played by Sir Menzies Campbell?

Still, the Foreign Office says we should be wary of France and Germany. Fair enough. Sounds reasonable... in more ways than one.
