It's just not cricket

At last the UK is about to unleash the ultimate detterent against Robert Mugabe's tyrannical regime in Zimbabwe.

We won't play cricket against them until they come to their senses.

What a pity Iraq and Afghanistan don't play the game. Those wars could've been avoided if Tony Blair had been able to issue this truly awful threat.

Still it's a comfort to know that we still hold the whip hand against all cricket-loving nations!
