Lepardia Marango Observes British General Election
Lepardia Marango the cultural attaché at the South African Embassy in London was sitting in a London tea shop enjoying a cup of Earl Grey tea.
She adjusted her skirt and brushed crumpet crumbs off her blouse as she typed on the keyboard of her laptop.
She had received an email from an ex-University classmate of hers in South Africa who said he had just come down with a hernia after he unilaterally tried to push a statue of British colonialist Cecil Rhodes off its pedestal on the University of Cape Town campus.
A crane was brought in to remove the statue to prevent the emergence of future hernias according to a South African news report.
Lepardia glanced at the TV screen in the tea shop.
A BBC News report was showing a nasty fight that had broken out at a candidates' debate in the constituency of Newbridge in Wales.
The fight was between a micro-mini skirted pop singer Morgana who was running as an Independent candidate on the British Transhumanist Techno-Progressive Anti-Bio Conservative Party platform and Magog Rhys Petley who was the sitting MP and incumbent candidate for the British Labour Party.
The fight was later taken outside but all the cameras showed outside was some fight going on between a large vampire bat and a large wolf.
The TV screen then showed a campaign stop for British Prime Minister David Cameron.
At the appearance, a protestor held up a picket sign in front of Mr. Cameron that said:
Why Settle For A Prime Minister Who's Only Human When You Can Have One Who's Transhuman?
Lepardia took a careful look at the protestor holding the placard in front of Cameron.
Wasn't that Renfield R. Renfield? she asked herself.
