From The Department Of 'You Have Got To Be Kidding Me!'...

Just a few days after the pointy heads reported that counselling wasn't all it was cracked up to be, the powers that be have decided that, actually, it can still be useful for some people:
Islamic extremists could escape prosecution and instead receive therapy and counselling under new Government plans to "deradicalise" religious fanatics.
How much will this cost...? Oh, just 'an extra £12.5 million'...

And who will do it? Psychiatrists? Psychologists? Not quite:
Instead, the presumption should be that some such individuals would face therapy and counselling from community groups instead of criminal charges.
Once again, satire weeps, trembling, in a corner while reality straps on its kickin' boots...
