The real enemy is of course, as always, complacency and mediocrity. How many of you bothered to re-run The Now Show on the iPlayer?

To celebrate the new series, Marcus Brigstocke referred to that phenomenen, the moral minority', which has surfaced, wheezing and whining, in a flurry of faded Laura Ashley to queue at a "heritage" tat shops and buy pointless New Age dross, in his sights.

" I call them "the sanctimonious, narrow-minded, hysterical peddlers of censorship and mediocrity" minority but that's only because if I called them what they really are, they'd put the BBC on eBay in a massive pointless sacrifice on the altar of mundanity. The spirit of Mary Bloody Whitewash is reborn in a nation of clamp-buttocked, po-faced dullards with lips so tightly pursed they look like a cat's exclamation mark".

Their mantra is: "It falls to us, the moral minority, to make sure things are safe 'for the children', safe and clean and with Nicholas Lyndhurst in them". If only 30,000 people, egged on by the tossers of Derry Street, would call up the BBC to complain about mediocrity. Instead, what do you get? Somebody posts 10,000 names and addresses of BNP members on the internet. So Hazel Blears goes on the telly and gives them massive extra publicity while bleating about the "danger". Well done.

What we want to know is what's the Home Office going to do to alleviate the social deprivation that is at the root of the smug and selfish whingeing, or better still, deport the whingers instead to do a spell of VSO. A re-run of the Clash in Victoria Park 30 years on would be jolly good (I wish) but far from enough to quell the fascists' insidious bid for respectability. It needs more than a bunch of well-meaning "f*lkies" (probably also complete with Laura Ashley cladding). And to that I'll add the fervent wish that this wholly discredited, now meaningless term gets binned in the ensuing revolution that has to happen.
