New Policy on Immigrants

'Mobile detention centres' (otherwise known as prison vans) cruising the streets looking for immigrants, vulnerable people hunted like stray dogs. Sticking to best practice (see: railways), the service will be contracted out to an expert in the private sector: the Child Snatcher out of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang has already lodged a bid.

Michael, please stop reading the Daily Mail, its bad for your health!

This is how children used to "vanish" from the streets of Brazil.

Has this country reached such a point that we would consider "snatch" squads as a way of implementing political policy?

Hopefully not, though anything to appear tough on immigration, eh? It'll probably go down a storm with Mail readers. By the way, you're right about the health risks, Peter, but I've found limited exposure to the online version results in nothing worse than a little grinding of teeth.
