Round them up in a warehouse and drop the bomb

I only managed to catch the top 50 of Channel 4's 100 Worst Britons on Saturday night, but it made for fairly entertaining viewing, mainly because Will Self featured, characteristically and mercilessly wielding the English language to delightfully devastating effect. For those who missed it, the full list is here, and the top ten were:

1. Tony Blair
2. Jordan
3. Margaret Thatcher
4. Jade Goody
5. Martin Bashir
6. Gareth Gates
7. Alex Ferguson
8. H from Steps
9. Geri Halliwell
10. The Queen

Although I was slightly surprised to find that slobber-tongued Mockney c**t Jamie Oliver way down the list at #28, it was pleasing to see that the Great British Public has the good sense and taste to single out H and Alex Ferguson as particularly cretinous gits.
