Surreal just doesn't cover this ad which appeared in yesterday's FT 'green' supplement (click to enlarge).
Personally, I found the Matrix to be a pile of pseudocrap. Admittedly, a well-conceived and shot pile of pseudocrap, but pseudocrap nonetheless. As such, the pill reference escapes me, as does the particular significance (if there is one) of the film to the contribution of Obama, Merkel and Hatoyama at Copenhagen.
However, if I was asked to take a pill which would help me transfer £200bn, per fucking year, mind, partly out of the economy of a country whose interests I was elected to serve, I'd tell them they're a bit crackers and perhaps their pill was formulated by someone corrupt and stupid.
The ad was placed on behalf of Avaaz.org (not linking to them, sorry) who appear to be an anti-globalisation task force, cherry-picked from some of the finest far left gobshites the world has to offer.
Not surprising, then, that they are advocating what can only be described as large scale implementation of a redistribution of wealth policy, on the back of the Copenhagen, err, climate change negotiations.
It's not just capitalism that is globalised these days. Communism wants in on the act, too.

@pill-refs: our protagonist gets to pick either the blue pill = choosing ignorance/bliss, or the red pill = choosing knowledge (of the matrix, created to enslave humankind)
-now you tell me: is the green pill blue or red ;)
Dozy twats.
Dozy, greedy twats.
Dozy, greedy, incompetent twats.
In other news, Sir Fat Bastard Donaldson has announced that he will retire in 2010. So that settles one question: there IS a god.
Anon, the green pill is obviously blue. ALL pills are blue.
CR.
'200bn a year will save us'
will it? sounds like one of those Nigerian scam emails
I wonder how much of the £200bn will end up in some African dictator's Swiss bank account ?
Mrs Exile wonders how much the FT charge for an ad in a supplement these days and how this Avaaz mob (sounds like a pirate with a speech impediment) got the money for it. The missus asks a good question. A good bet would be a grant from an organisation that got a grant from someone else who got a grant from some quango or fake charity who got their money from the government who robbed it off of us in order to give it to these hectoring miserablists who sooooo love to tell the rest of us how to live our lives, the cunts.
Any takers?
I'm just surprised tht the crypto-communists let themselves out of the bag quite so early.
A moment of pure irony this morning: minus 4 outside and Brown telling us that if we don't stop global warming it'll wreck the economy. Really, we should just point at him and laugh.
Global Roasting ,yes please,
anything that sinks London and
fries Sydney sounds like a decent
bit of gear.
By then with a bit of luck the San
