Old labour - New Haircut

Now Labour is in power in power in our borough I’ve had a socialist haircut to celebrate.A certain part of my cranium was underprivileged whilst the other areas seemed to be flourishing. I didn’t see why one area should look pleasant and well groomed whilst the neighbouring patch was short of resources and so instead of trying to bring the standards of the whole up to that of the best,  I’ve shaved the lot off thereby rendering the complete bonce down to the same level and preventing one area from having an advantage over the other. Can I get a get a council grant?

Harvey, let me check I understand your point. You have a bald patch and rather than go for a crappy comb-over or a dumb look of long hair around the bald patch, you've decied to cut all the remaining hair short. This makes it look better overall. Is that right?Then you have tried to make a comparison to a policy of driving everyone / every thing down to lowest common demoninator. Is that right?Did you consider that the comparison was poor because you assume that every hair follicle has the same opportunities, privilages and access? You seem to think that each follicle is born equal, with equal chance of success. Do you?Did you also consider that the effort and cost to enable to failing follicles is achievable and affordable? You are veritable Elton John. You are happy to invest huge sums in every single weak follicle. Have I got this right?Yours, seeking clarification on the worst analogy of the year, Alan

As usual - comment would be superfluous.
