I continue to hate Arundhati Roy. And no, I ain't got nothing better to say.
Great Britain is still a functioning democracy, where people can voice dissent without having some arcane offence being slapped up on you. This reminds me of the Secretariat Road, Trivandrum, Kerala, India (which is closed to traffic during the day so as to allow protestors to protest in peace in front of parliament!).

Siddhu Warrier is an intellectual prostitute ekeing out a parlous living in Aberdeen. He stands where he does having previously tried his hand at being an academic flunkie. Before being offered a position of flunkitude somewhere in Scotland, he spent two years loafing about in Europe at the taxpayers' expense. Harking back even further into the mists of time, he spent four years at a second rate institution pretending to study Computer Science at the expense of another taxpayer (who happens to be his father). He is also renowned for having attempted (unsuccessfully) to inflict his beastly presence on a succession of his female compatriots, who heaved a collective sigh of relief when a kind Russian dyevushka took him out of circulation. He also wants to write a book one of these days, rather like every English speaking Indian who knows to use Microsoft Word's spellchecker. This has led to the US state department classifying him as a weapon of mass boredom (WMB).
