It's like the BANK HOLIDAY GLOOM and OMG THE MUZZIES WANT CHRISTMAS CANCELLED stories, it's the same old bullshit trotted out every year at the same time.

And the Choudray stuff comes up again.

"Nutcase in insane rambling shocker".

If they ignored the guy, he and the minority of lunatics that follow him would fade away.

And the October story about how a "study" shows that we're a below average country to live in because we work longer hours than most other countries.

What about the fecking bank holiday traffic jams and airport queues that torment only "families".

Hottest day of the year(it won't last)

Coldest day of the year (fuck climate change yah !)

May Day ( only for those lefty types)

I suppose we could design a Mail calender with all the key dates and pictures of jolly England.

I propose January.

There is always a random choice for 'Worst Day Of The Year'. This could be because of anything you choose... the last Bank Holiday before Christmas, nights drawing in, the start of summer holidays and the impact of children on hard-working-middle-class-middle-Englander columnists etc. The best one of course is a rather suspect yet complex formula that proves a particular day has some significance although it probaly has its genisis following an extended liquid lunch down at the Pony & Trap Inne between a couple of hacks anxious to fill a page or two.

Sadly the galley slaves do not get out for lunch! If they did they might find a whole new refreshing world out there!

Yes, there always seems to be one around mid-January (post-xmas blues), one early (when everyone gets their credit card bills and realises they spent a bloody fortune at xmas) and one late Feb (long past xmas, still cold and dark), one in the middle of April (clock change), one in June (everyone wishes they were on holiday), one September (no bank hols til xmas), one late October (clock change, dark evenings) and one November (still not xmas).

You've forgotten "Women get above themselves" as an essential element in almost every issue.
And some September/October "We're all going to die of flu" terrormongering, offering up a good excuse to bash the NHS and moan about "all these foreign nurses/doctors/HCAs" (delete as required) stealing British jobs from middle class students (cue picture of sad looking medical students who have no jobs)

To be fair, every day is a "Worst Day of the Year" in Mailland
