Mugabe bans the colour red
I was thinking it was time for a bit of satire at Canary - and then this item caught my eye:
President Robert Mugabe's Government has banned the colour red from Zimbabwe television because it is the symbol of the opposition Movement for Democratic Change.
The MDC encourages its supporters to flash football-style red cards, to tell Mugabe that he is no longer wanted on Zimbabwe's political field.
Some things are beyond satire. And do we hear the echo of Idi Amin in the background??
