Proof positive that human rights are an infinitely movable feast: there is now a human right to broadband. The BBC says the UN says so, so who are we to argue?
The classic sea shanty "Boney was a Warrior", which I sang in one of its many variants at primary school but which I strongly suspect is no longer considered appropriate for impressionable young minds, clearly needs modernisation:-
He went to Saint Helena,
Away, a-yah!
There he was a prisoner,
Jean Francois!
That isle, it had no broadband,
Away, a-yah!
Thus from Twitter he was banned,
Jean Francois!
Boney broke his heart and died
Away, a-yah!
Away in Saint Helena
Jean Francois!
