Government sources have confirmed that the government is running out of ways to scar the poor, penalise the old and disenfranchise the disabled. Despite all their best efforts they have raped, pillaged and censored the weak and the worthy alike. Their last, best hope is to raise the taxes on bingo halls, targeting the lower paid and most easily distracted elements in society.
'It is well known that the lower paid, the under-educated and those who seek inexpensive light relief from caring duties like to spend time in bingo halls. They are our target victims - er - audience, so we will make their miserable lives more miserable. It's the least we can do, and the least is definitely what we want to do,' said a government spokesman today.
