The New Britain - summed up in one photograph and one caption


There are, of course, many things which constitute a breach of one's human rights - but I'm pretty sure that being sent home from school for turning up with a spectacularly silly hair-do isn't one of them. Maybe some of the Syrian refugees who will shortly be arriving in this country could explain to the two females in the above photograph what a genuine breach of human rights looks like - say, being attacked with chemical weapons, or being imprisoned without trial, or being beheaded, or being driven from your home at the point of a gun, or being tortured just for the fun of it, or being raped by soldiers...you know, minor stuff like that.

Give me strength!

The full heart-rending story can be found on the Daily Mail website, here.
