Hackney Today Self Realisation Shocker
Most of you will have no doubt about my views on Hackney Today, our local council propaganda sheet. However, this week, its headline writer appears to have broken loose with this shaft of wit/ cocked up massively [delete as appropriate].
I just glanced at my copy, which I found as I left my flat 30 minutes ago. Writ large on the front page is a succinct and massive headline:
JUST BIN IT
Such sound advice. World class, even. It’ll be even funnier if it turns out to be a piece on recycling. I’ll show you a copy when I get back to my desk.
UPDATE: I’m back at my desk. Here’s the front page. On closer inspection, the proximity of “Just Bin It” next to the story about the Olympics (which won’t benefit locals) is rather prescient too.

Oh yes.
Are they still removing all the free sports facilities to create pay-per-play sports facilities for the Olympic Legacy?
