Germany Is The New France – Germany Re-Assessed (Part 2 After All)

It is as I have always and vaguely feared. Communism is already gripping the internal organs of Europe like a deep scarlet fever – it never went, it merely mutated, like the bird flu. You shut one entrance and another one of the little bereted buggers pops out of the window, or even better, through the serving hatch, because that’s where they all are, these communists, in your kitchen. They huddle there, mincing and talking, poisoning your water.

So all the German doctors are on strike now too, along with nurses, rubbish collectors and road maintenance workers. Apparently they don’t have enough money. The rumbles gather.

It is as I said, loyal Anglofritzer Vic, though the news may be old, the symptoms are ever urgent, heaping upon one another as upon a stricken patient. I met a pagan in the depths of Brandenburg a few months ago who was devising alternative means of making his living. To this purpose he had bought property away from the centres of civilisation, believing that this was where the trouble would begin. When the doom falls, you want to be outside the city, he claimed, and looked at me darkly. The look fairly gleamed with menace.

Did he have a crazy face and a cockney accent? You wanna get aat of ear mate

Give those commies a kiss for me -- that's what they really want.

Yes, the way you depict them, I can see them working with Orwell in Down and Out in Paris and London, or signing up for a stint on the Peaquod.
