short, la passione will be gone.
It is the considered opinion of this
pundit, in fact, that the outfit of choice
for the UK’s currently-young generation
will, in ten years’ time, be a black bin
bag, and black plastic armour-plating.
First to go will be colour. Gone are the
days when a vivacious young scamp
could trot around the streets with a
smile on their face and a rainbow
headband on. Red, orange, and yellow
will be switly followed by green, blue
and violet. Indigo will hang around for
a while, because no one really knows
what it is, so they won’t know to scorn
it, but its days are numbered. Finally
even brown, mauve, and beige will
choke on their own exuberance and be
forever consigned to history.
Finally all expression through shape
and form will be implicitly outlawed as
the current youth becomes the
dominant social class. Tailoring can
forget it. A-line skirt? What’s that?
Here’s a big black bin. Wear it. Any
attempt to show anything other than
abject misery in the way one looks or
holds oneself will be viewed as a
betrayal of the cause of whiney British
youth, and quietly stamped down.

leather… even polyester and nylon
have had their day. It’s simple plastics
all the way now. And maybe metal, if
we can buy some from the Chinese.
So is there anything positive to say
whatsoever about the inevitable fate of
a once proud nation? Of course there
is. Don’t be silly! Children might be the
