What about this for a plot – any excellent writers out there?

2 politicians – rivals – but thrown together and one quickly cottoning on to the fact that together he/they can achieve – and they do – party into power – long period of success fuelled by the charm and skilled oratory of the one and the skilled financial crookery & manipulation of the other – hey ho – things starting to get a touch hard so boss man decides time to go in order to complete his conquering of the world and  building of his financial empire from a more accepting and friendly dinner guest audience.

The other? – Well of course he is handed the poisoned chalice of leadership which by now has poisioned most of the worlds financial systems and comes tumbling down around his ears – does he worry? – not a bit of it – by now he is the consummate manipulator, spinner of spin & crook of all crooks – so he simply presents himself as the rescuer of the worlds financial systems ably helped by some clever teamwork with his former boss as they deftly manoeuvre into place the new boy on the block who just happens to be leader of the most powerful nation in the world – which of course is also suffering deeply from the crookedness of the financial system engineered by these two crafty and bent politicians.

Meanwhile the press is getting ever more intrusive and some blatant exposure of the lying and deceit inside the leaders office is this time not calmed by his out and out denial – no – he is really forced onto the back step of an apology.

Small wonder then that he enters the G20 financial summit hatching a clever plot to divert the world’s attention away from the crumbling and rotten financial and political morass – with a couple of other leaders alongside and shortly afterwards ….well would you believe it… an outbreak of Swine flu which of course is enough to scare the pants off a world already down in the dumps and deftly set up earlier by bird flu to predictably react to such scare mongering diversionary tactics.

Does not take much of a leap of imagination for one to envisage a bio chemist secret agent quietly dispatched to Mexico as a tourist with a carefully prepared phial of potent virus. (More than likely designed to extinguish itself within a few weeks – just watch – I bet this scare disappears in a couple of weeks as quickly as it has begun.)  Come on, look at it, this sort of happening is only the daily grist of the main time scary TV dramas we are repeatedly fed.

Oh! And of course we must remember the design includes the advantage of offering ‘New Boy’ some help – I mean that Mexico border and the immigrants – place a stop to that for a while eh!

And what a lucky break for our erstwhile and scheming politician – the first planeload of infected tourists to land back home back happen to be from Scotland – just the job – what with them being run by those pesky Nationalists and causing all sorts of problems.

All in all a tale with a lot of stinking ‘Brown’ stuff in it. Just wants a heroic and clever rebel agent now to expose it all and fit in a real nice ending. That would of course firmly establishes it as total fiction.
