Private Eye...

From issue 1228 of Private Eye:

(for non-UK readers, Private Eye is a satirical news magazine, a bit like 10 pages of The Onion sandwiched in between 30 pages of anonymous investigative journalism).

I don't recall if anyone mentioned it at the time, but FT and doctor david sutton were given a spoof feature in Viz last year or so.

Very nice. I remember the original story from BBC Radio4's 'Today' prog, a week, or two, back. "Green shoots of recovery", indeed!

Nice sort of tip of the hat to the FT.

But 'green shoots' are yesterday's news - now it's 'birth pangs'...

Birth Pangs of a New Era or something?

Quick, give us an epidural and have done with it.
