G8 Leak Proves Edinburgh 'Dispensable'
Suspicions that Edinburgh may have been chosen as the location of this year's G8 summit because no one really cares if it gets wrecked by the crazy hippies have been confirmed by a leaked government memo.
The memo states that [Edinburgh] "…is the correct choice because it's in Scotland so it's well away from all the important stuff like Parliament and Downing Street…"
The memo further reveals that Glasgow was considered as a suitable venue but rejected because "the thuggish natives might get ideas from the demonstrators - then we'd be in the shit… besides, at least Edinburgh is civilised nowadays and it's got a castle and some shops… Glasgow is still a shithole"
It is unclear at this point whether the leak came from the Treasury or Number Ten, or indeed that it's complete bollocks made up because there's not that much political news today.
