Amid diplomatic turmoil between Britain and Russia, one of the world's greatest post-Impressionist masterpieces was finally hung at the Royal Academy in London yesterday.
This raises the question; should the war criminal Tony Blair be hung?
"Russia cancelled the exhibition just before Christmas because it was concerned that its paintings might be seized in London...However, the Russians relented after Britain rushed through laws to guarantee against the seizure of foreign state-owned assets in this country".
Isn't it marvellous how Britain can rush through laws for the sake of Russian paintings, and yet take ages and has still not passed laws to give convicted prisoners the right to vote?
