Dear Mrs Chapti, I know that we are not formally acquainted, but I would like to extend my sympathy to you in your current predicament. Clearly, you are most unhappy about being separated from your husband and six children, and given that it is some fifteen years or so since you first came to England from India, and a full six years – according to Radio 4’s Today Programme – since you settled here, this sense of separation must be causing you some distress. Such distress in fact, that one of ‘our’ benevolent and public-spirited human rights lawyers has chosen to take up your case on your behalf. Believe me, I really do respect your right to a family life, and I fully encourage you to bring about a successful and permanent family reunion.
Mrs Chapti, if I am not mistaken, your love for my country must be great for you to have undertaken such an extraordinary course of action. Indeed, your husband too must be in possession of a pronounced love for my people and culture, as exhibited by your declaration that he as yet knows nothing of our language, and furthermore, has no intention of learning it should he take up residence here. You are a shining beacon Mrs Chapti, whose light shines out to countless millions! Indeed, these millions eagerly await the outcome of your case, for they too are keen to claim their ‘human rights’. How flattering it is in these times that the world should possess such a host of ‘Anglophiles’!

Well said. If she craves the family life to which she is being deprived all she need do is, on her next visit to India, save money by buying a single not a return ticket. Problem solved, end of story.
ReplyDeleteIndeed Mr Nutkin, an excellent suggestion. It's just such a pity that she'll not be able to consider my advice as she wouldn't be able to read my kindly and supportive letter in the first place.
ReplyDeleteStep forward Anthony Blair Esq. Thanks to your obsession with having us bound in bondage to those Human Rights fanatics in Strasbourg, we are incapable of advising Mr. and Mrs. Chapti to have their emotional reunion in India.....where they should both be fluent speakers!
