Diocese to eliminate unfair life

It has come to the attention of the Diocese of Westminster that of all the planets in the solar system, only one has sentient life. And it is no coincidence that the one planet that has life is also the source of all the pollution in the solar system, and consumes all the mineral wealth used.

As local leaders were unwilling to address this inequality, the diocese has installed its own team, and they are going to make sure that there is a level playing field between planets. The objections of inhabitants of planet earth against being eliminated are of course local and trivial compared to the wider issues of justice and peace.

What's all this about? Ask the parents of the Vaughan School...

Local, trivial and "self-interested", Ben. You forgot "self-interested". Brilliant analogy, BTW.

Definitely middle class. BTW, you know the definition of a middle class family, don't you? Any family with two parents and a book in it.
