You're probably right.

I have an idea.   Next election I'll vote for the party that I most disagree with.
Then when they do the complete opposite to what they promise as usual, I should get the results I wanted.

It seems to be some kind of craze on there at the moment, picking the stupidest story going and emailling it to everyone in order to keep it at the top of the list. A couple of weeks ago it was the one about the guy who had to marry a goat after being caught 'in the act' by its owner.
