When Moseley Festival arrives, the people of Moseley can think of only one thing: joy. All year round Mothers tell their children of stalls of crap that line the streets as far as the eye can see. Tales of farmers selling meat and bread, local anarchists handing out leaflets about the imminent threat of globalisation and Buddhists worshipping Buddha.

Unfortunately this years festival was ruined by local malcontents working very much to their own agenda. A local so called “satirical” web site attempted to hijack this year’s festival by playing what could only be called, “noise” at unsuspecting passers by and dressing up as, of all things, a tiger. This shameless publicity stunt had nothing to do with community relations and everything to do with childish back-slapping.

A local resident told us “Christ! Look up there! It’s a fucking tiger! What’s that doing?” Insiders told us that this disgusting act of self promotion was merely an attempt to get people to read their “dodgy” web site. We suspect an ulterior motive.

These people have spent the last year or so slagging off the fine work done by the community groups of Moseley and we think it’s because they’re only after real power themselves. They must be stopped and we the people of Moseley must be the ones to stop them. Don’t read their web site. Don’t laugh at their puerile antics and definitely don’t go to any more of their parties.

One concerned by-stander put it better than we ever could, “It’s harmless isn’t it? You’re just jealous ‘cause your site’s a bit crap.”
