I propose "Dead Witch Day" to be celebrated every year.

It doesn't need government approval. It can be another Guy Fawks kind of day and its momentum can build every year.

A COMPROMISE has been reached to help Britain solve its Ding Dong the Witch is Dead problem. With the BBC under right-wing pressure to ban the song, the broadcaster suggested a version sung by Leonard Cohen, the Canadian music poet.

A spokesman said: “The composers of ‘Ding Dong’ intended it to be triumphalist and optimistic. A witch was dead. A wicked witch.

“But while Margaret Thatcher left a divisive legacy, there is no evidence the Wicked Witch of the East took what she felt were the necessary though difficult steps to liberalise the Oz economy."

He added: “In order to reflect the true nature of Britain’s relationship with Lady Thatcher, a Leonard Cohen version would reflect great joy while at the same time being utterly depressing.

2. This appears to be a lovely British tradition. We should bring it into our culture..........

May I suggest June 5th. We could even call it 'Bed time for the man behind the curtain day'.
