Another riots sketch

HAZEL BLEARS IS TALKING TO SERGEANT IVOR TRUNCHEON

HAZEL
Right now the riots are over how are we going to make sure we punish those responsible?

TRUNCHEON
We identify the ring leaders with state of the art intelligence and deal with them appropriately.

HAZEL
Excelent sergeant and who are the masterminds of these terrible riots?

TRUNCHEON
Well there's all the public sector workers who've been sacked, there's about 237,000 of them.

HAZEL
Oh that's quite a few masterminds.

TRUNCHEON
The bored young people who's youth clubs have been shut down. That's about 1,300,345

HAZEL
Crikey any others?

TRUNCHEON
There's all the people who think Cameron is an insincere, shiny faced Etonian arsehole. That's

HAZEL
Pretty much everyone else. Plan B it is then.

TRUNCHEON
Arrest the Kaizer Chiefs it is then.

Good one.

It's fine, but why is it Hazel Blears doing the asking?

F**k knows did I get the wrong politician? Is it Hodge?

I enjoyed this idea and the dialogue but I think the Kaiser Chiefs line cheapens what you've got going on.

Reckon you could even expand the q&a to the point it reveals
pretty much everyone is against him, disgruntled lib-dems, police who've had their forces cut, teachers who've had their schools levelled, libarians who've
had their sites shut, the troops who've had their funding slashed, the private scetor who have had their pensions wrecked etc

Interesting, but I think I wanted to get out earlier

There was a change of government last May. Try Teresa May

I'd leave it as Blears....she's a ginge. >_<
