The troops on the ground on British streets

are there solely  to protect us,

so the rhetoric goes

and the decision to have armed forces

supplied by an outside firm

is to save the taxpayer the expense of one solitary

Pound being used for what is effectively

Marshall Law, a crack down on the Militant extremists

in our midst.

 

Our protection, if it was for our protection,

If it was indeed to keep us safe,

to be able to wrap our arms in comfort and joy

round our loved ones in the dead

of night, then surely the Call of Duty

heroes would be guarding the lunatic asylum

in Central London, they would be double stacked ,

console triggers cocked and thumbs poised,

making sure that they all behaved as responsible adults

and to make the people pay for their blind eye,

such is their contempt,

that even the bastard love child of Mosley

suggests it is all about keeping ordinary Britons,

safe from harm and the economy ticking,

or rather ordinary Britons ticking

and the economy safe from harm…

 

Call of Duty, U.K. Division,

the panic on the streets of Birmingham,

Bootle and Bicester

all quelled with restrictions and passes,

descent and questions unpatriotic

and counter insurgent…

It’s for your own good the protection we offer,

‘cause that line has worked well

in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Libya, Iran, Syria, Greece,

Russia,

American shooting galleries…

Ireland…

Welcome to Call of Duty, Tour of G.B. Special Edition.
