They say we are picking the litter up here in the future

Bizzare. That is rarely a bad thing.

Perhaps impenetrable and over-cryptic rather than bizarre. Should there be footnotes?

Thanks- your response nice. Martin amis- the literary novelist- is- the papers suggested- off with his family to live in New York. He plans to keep a flat in London. (Brooklyn, Queensway.) 'Supersad' comes from the epic 'Money.' a little joke observes NYC drivers- the I.D. Is seemingly shown in reverse- are we dealing with Morgan Supersad, or Supersad Morgan? The final line- David Cameron/the government needing JSA recipients to maybe consider compulsory litter picking.:flare::banghead::drool5:

So are we saying alright for some? Some are off to comfort, others discomfort. We have at least a laugh in our heart- Martin's gifted sense of humour.:out:

Now it makes some sense - but it will still leave most readers baffled despite you tying up the loose ends (and more to the point asking the question "how are all these rather random media bites supposed to fit together?").
