Boris Johnson slashes number of deadly sins across London in bid to privatise greed
Good luck Boris – question is who will bid higher than you?
(satire?)
London Mayor Boris Johnson has announced greed and envy are to be sold off to private developers as part of his plans to reduce the seven deadly sins across London to just five.
In a controversial speech on Friday, Mr Johnson revealed he was planning to allow city developers to take over the entire provision of greed and envy in the capital – with the majority of the remaining five vices to be rebranded and officially downgraded from ‘cardinal’ to ‘pretty good’.
The announcement comes only weeks after Mr Johnson also announced a drastic reduction in the number of graces in the capital from three to just one – with Hope and Charity to be axed altogether leaving only Faith to be outsourced to G4S in what one insider described as “a multi-million pound deal”.

Standing at the precipice
you can’t catch me
it is too late for a fling
hanging on a string
once a drip of water
now but winter’s daughter
*
I stand at the precipice
active are lights and colors
scents cloud my reason
sounds of the season
wrapped in bows
I pivot on my toes
*
I stand on the precipice
so many things I missed
struggling to catch them as I fall
wishing to embrace it all
unsuccessful was my list
the many words I missed
*
I jump from the precipice
you can judge the distance
28 more days
the sun shines too little rays
I smile at the thought
all the places where we walked

Opposition Protestors in Ukraine Erect Tent City in Kiev Overnight – SPIEGEL ONLINE
On Sunday, around 100,000 opposition supporters gathered on Independence Square in defiance of a ban on rallies until Jan. 7. Around double that amount were believed to be in the city center in total. There were violent clashes on the fringes of the demonstration with police reporting roughly 100 officers injured. According to the city authorities, nearly 50 protestors also needed treatment for injuries. Several dozen members of Svoboda occupied a vacant public building and hung a Ukrainian flag from the window.
There were also protests in other parts of the country. In Lviv in western Ukraine, about 50,000 anti-government demonstrators took part in a rally. In Donetsk, in the Russian-speaking region in the east of the country where the president comes from, 250 people defied a ban on demonstrations. For days, supporters of closer ties with the EU have been protesting against Yanukovych.
