Yes, There is a Minister for Cycling!

I only found out about this yesterday when the gov announced that it was bringing in legislation to enable cyclists who kill pedestrians to face the same charges as car drivers as there is no provision for that at present. So if such a minister exists for cycling how long before there I a minister for Silly Walks? Or was that job taken by Michael Portillo years ago?

As government is like a rash that spreads an antidote is needed, a radical minister cull and a closing down of whole ministries indeed. Under the Capitalist Party it would be quicker to say what ministries would be left standing rather than what would be culled: Foreign office, er what else? The home office I suppose though what does that do anyway. I need to do some homework clearly but as the role of the state is to protect citizen's individual rights and to that end it requires the courts,prisons,police,armed forces only ministries pertaining to those activities would exist the rest would go. So go figure.

The state is a necessary good,there would still be the judiciary,legislature and executive branches but there would be a bonfire of the rest with the cycling minister at the head of the queue yegods.
