Save The "Sea Kittens"

The Animal 'Rights' nutcases have been active in Europe for a while but not quite to the fruitcake level seen in the US. The Sinn Fein to their I.R.A. is PETA (People For The Ethical Treatment of Animals).

They've just launched their most nutty campaign yet: demanding fish be renamed "sea kittens". They think that calling fish "sea kittens" will make sea food less appealing.

It wants to change the image of fish as slimy and slithery creatures by claiming they are similar to cuter, more popular animals. "Would people think twice about ordering fish sticks if they were called sea kitten sticks?" PETA asks on its website (no link provided to the nutcases from here).

You can't make this stuff up.

The Sea Kittens Story Book is actually worth a quick skim as it produced the odd giggle from your's truly.

Imagine the further damage to the nations health if we ditch fish a part of our balanced diets! More burgers??

"There are no constraints on the human mind, no walls around the human spirit, no barriers to our progress except those we ourselves erect."

Lady Thatcher

"If you lead a country like Britain, a strong country, a country which has taken a lead in world affairs in good times and in bad, a country that is always reliable, then you have to have a touch of iron about you."

Voltaire

"Stand upright, speak thy thoughts, declare The truth thou hast, that all may share; Be bold, proclaim it everywhere: They only live who dare."
