700: Iran Invades Cornwall’s Holy Site
“WHY 700 Iranians have descended on Cornwall.”
The reason is… Well, let’s see if you can guess. And do note that the headline appears in the Daily Express. Is it:
a) To look for blonde children?
b) To act as surprise witnesses at the Princess Diana inquest?
c) Because the Cornwall Tourist Board has twinned the shire with Tehran?
d) Because it reminds them of home?
The answer is d), although we should not discount any of the other options, nor option e) – To slaughter the locals in their beds in a revenge attack for the film 300.
To Cornwall. As the Express says: “Villagers in Porth, Cornwall, usually hear nothing louder than the sound of seagulls or the lap of the waves on the beach.”
Or, indeed, the gentle pssst!-pssssst! of a drug dealer, the soothing hum-hum-thrppp of a jetski race or the uep-eup-eup of young bucks and their lady friends decorating the streets in a lively technociolur yawn.
But hark! Tis the sound of the Islamic Students’ Association broadcasting prayers to the masses.
The 700 are gathered for a six-day celebration of “Iranian and Islamic culture”. And the rugged scenery of Cornwall “reminds them of the region that saw the birth of their religion.”
Cornwall’s Christians have been in the area of centuries for similar reasons. Not for no reason is the Trevelgue Holiday Park is one of the world’s foremost Holy sites…
