The Guido Fawkes web site had some fun the other day with its report that the 'masked morons' who took part in an anti-capitalist protest in London recently were charged £4.20 for their V for Vendetta masks which are bought in from China (of all places) at a cost of 22p each.

One regular reader suggests raising the matter on the floor of the Scottish Parliament which is a good idea, but requires an MSP who's prepared to put down a written question for Scottish Ministers to answer.
