HSE, when you think about it, sadly are only responding to the kind of society we've made for ourselves.
When anything bad happens, there has to be someone to blame and hence to sue.

This was sent from the land of 'Baa baa Rainbow Sheep', the Doncaster version of the popular classic nursery rhyme calculated not to offend anyone. Irony was, this last lambing, at least 30% of the lambs were BLACK! Let the Lefty do-gooders sort that out while they're working out what we can and can't do safely. . . Give me strength!
