It's a cliche, but this is the best picture of Sven that I've seen recently. Although he is obviously an idiot in many ways, I feel he has always been the subject of a racist/xenophobic agenda. The press just didn't like the fact that he is a foreigner and some of them have been after him whatever he did. But being hounded out of your job is the lot of every England manager. Nobody has simply resigned and moved on since Alf Ramsay 'resigned' 30 years or so ago. Robson was hounded to resign before Italia 1990, Taylor during the campaign for USA 94,Venables just after England 1996, Hoddle for failing in France, Keegan for losing to Germany, and now Erikkson for not doing much wrong really apart from not winning anything yet. He even made those 'invisible' spectacles rather fashionable.

Although the cartoon is well up to Steve Bell's high standard and beautifully cutting, the Guardian editorial pretty much covers what I would say about Incapacity Benefit.
It will be interesting to see who gets in the race to be his replacement. Not only is it an attractive job in itself, but you work for an employer who pays very well and keeps on increasing your pay and extending your contract for no discernable reason whatsoever.
