Don't get mad, get even

 ... and stay calm while you're at it.

This could easily be the best piece of advice this morning from something I read at The Daily Paywall  Sceptic, which story itself came from The Paywall Telegraph.  Both which simply have me for one clicking out ... couldna be bothered with paywall guff, as if they deserve to be paid for their opinions.

Call me a cheapskate but there it is.  So, what was it about?

Well there's a former Conservative Party branch chairman or whatever, going for a drive in the passenger seat, his girl doing the driving ... which for a start is a huge red flag for me ... tells me she owns the car, he's maybe on benefits now, who knows?

Another car cuts in, in front of them on some M or A road, driver jams on the brakes, reverses, apparently the couple chase him, our hero gets out the second time, the miscreant reverses again, this time slamming into Mr. Sweary.

As the car screeches away with Holmes sprawled on the ground, he then shouts, “You f—ing b——”, before asking his partner to phone the police.

He then reported the incident to Cleveland Police, but was shocked to discover the force would not pursue the case.

Holmes said: “I’m quite Northern and quite sweary, but that can’t be an excuse for not taking any action against this man.

“I think anybody would be swearing in those circumstances..."

Right ... well methinks we're dealing with a set of non-foreigners here ... or was the unnamed miscreant indeed a foreigner from a killy, rapy demographic?  And to be fair to "our" boy, he was being gallant in defending his gf ... it seems that way.

And this story has appeared after the stabby Sikh got near on 21 years.

All right, let me make it worse. Two people I knew in the 90s had a career path where she was from leafy, south of Bexleyheath, London, with her near RP accent and subsequent career path.  He was a northern lad from St Helens.

Just pausing a mo ... it seems as crazy as my own parents ... one not far from Micklethwaite, West Riding and she from County Cork.  How on earth did those two ever get together? Then again, my own associations are eye-opening. Nuff of that, back to the story.

Mr. Sweary did not strategise, did not assess the situation.  However, the gf driving was quite happy chasing the miscreant, so she was as bad as him ... or submissive.

And what did he hope for, "our" boy?  Not only have we Arsenal PSG foreign and football lads types on the road now, but druggies, the unlicensed etc. etc.  Probably no MoT.

Well, he was "hoping" to exchange details with the miscreant, not unlike a fighty Labour MP in the street.  And Plod?

Ah, well here we enter the realms of speculation.  If the miscreant had also been local indigenous, then yes, Plod was out of order as usual, legally, but I can see the scenario playing out as it did.  If a "guest" of the country though, then Plod would most certainly not wish to pursue that, on pain of their job.

Which brings me to Nige and Lee finally being shamed into attending the rape gang inquiry and his former love interest saying that Nige never cared about women anyway, he just used them.

And yet some women I know still intend voting for those uniparty clowns.  Why not the Rupy lot?  Ah well, too TR, innit, too "of the people". I've been asked myself why I'd bother.  Er ... conscience?

As for the blogpost heading above ... well yes ... if you find yourself under duress, under attack, outnumbered ... fight or flight ... at least be prepared ... boy scout training kicking in here ... at least have the necessary tools and/or action plan, choose your routes, think a bit laterally.  A miscreant's blown out tyre has a slowing effect for example.
