No inspiration/not inspired

So, in today's news a 13 year old boy has become a father, and apparently someone in Berlin has been cured of HIV. Last month a woman had a litter of eight children in five minutes.
It seems everything that could have happened has now happened.

The grandfather of the child who's father will be in sixth form (or not) when she starts primary school said "I hope he will be a good dad."
Of course he won't!
He didn't even know what financial means when he was asked how he would provide for his child! When the baby is crying for a rusk and the cupboard is bare, will little Alfie Patten look up from playing Mario Cart on the Wii? Well, probably - for enough time to look at Maisie Roxanne and mutter an obscenity then text his friend "Wuu2 am bord."

Apparently this has triggered a debate over 'broken Britain'. Britain is already FULLY broken, into tiny little pieces, that if played in a PowerPoint slideshow would incorporate figures of banks, golliwogs, unhappy faces walking out of a factory, and Gordon Brown dressed as a sinister Robin Hood carrying out his motto. The only good thing that has happened in the past few months is Peaches Geldof moving to America. As it is, they say rats are the first to leave a burning ship.

Couldn't agree more with you in regards to 'Broken Britain'.
Where did it all go wrong?
