Just a quick additional comment on the pie that Marks and Sparks created to 'celebrate the death of millions' (which they really actually did obviously...) I missed something. Something obvious. That is that there are people out there working for (or interned by I suppose) 'news' websites whose job is to generate clickbait. One of the ways of doing that is of course to trawl Twatter to find somebody saying something 'controversial' (must take them minutes sometimes) that they can put on their website as a 'controversy' - and in some cases it becomes a click-through baitey solid gold storm in a Twattery for 5 minutes and traffic increases as people check it out - and then click on adverts and buy stuff as everyone does obviously (almost as obvious as the M&S policy to celebrate mass murder...)
The celebrate mass-murder pie was of course one of these. I mistook it for an actual debate not a 'that lad over there called you a puff'' type 'controversy' from school. Must either pay more or less attention...
