Benefits chop

On the day: 
09/02/2012 

On the way: 
The tree is just standing there, round the corner from the station, just standing, performing no function, providing no service, just as it has for, ooh, years and years, since before you or I were born. 
Oh, except now, its supporting a sign. Well, not so much a sign as a plastic sleeve and the piece of paper that reads: "Notice if Intention to Fell This Tree." Which seems like heaping humiliating insult upon the threat of fatal injury, a final indignity, but hey-ho.  
Damn right, anyway, the shiftless waster. 
Trees, huh, coming over here, living off benefits, leeching off the state. What do they expect? 

On the pod: 
Blue Blanket - Fetish 

On the front page: Sex abuse victim killed herself after court ordeal (The Times)
