What kind of inverted value society has the UK become? I've just tried to access the website of Davidoff's in St James's Street, an upmarket tobacconist, only to learn that UK law prevents me from entering.
It thus appears that the power of the internet enables UK users to access the most explicit of sexual material, but not to look at a photograph of a cigar, in case you are tempted to light up afterwards. Truly bizarre. And yet more evidence that it is impossible to be a satirist in modern Britain. However crazy you think an idea might be, officialdom beat you to it.
It then occurs to me that social and medical workers and others who are currently working themselves into a lather over the Savile witchhunt will likely be more worried about the exposure of children to his tobacco than to his wandering hands and other body parts. I'd bet a pound to a penny that officialdom is at least one step ahead...
