Noise pollution

Nice find here by Taffy san over at Ippoippo, seems that that Hiroshima City Council have had enough of those loud speaker vans that assault ear drums as they are driven around town. They are targeting the right wing chappies who, amongst other things, hurl abuse at foreigners - coming over here, taking our jobs!streets will be awash with rivers of blood! some of my best friends are foreigners, but there are always one or two bad apples! etc - however the hope is that firstly they will also put a stop to the loud speaker vans that drive around during city/prefectural / gubernatorial / mayoral / regional and national elections; and second, that the rest of Japan will follow suit.

Well, it's a start.

Oh, and as we haven't had one for a while, here's a picture of Marcus enjoying himself...
