Cherie's Pilgrimage:- Neo-Liberal Fucking.

Erica | 01.10.2006 11:09 | Repression | London

This was published before Pope Benedict managed to piss off the Muslim/Catholic/
Jewish communities. It was on Indymedia.ie for three months, June15th-September
22nd- when it was suppressed, without reason. It's a gender polemic based on the
assumption that neo-liberal hegemony with a christian basis is deeply anti-women,
anti-dialogue. Cherie Blair's conversation with Pope Benedict was addressing the
issue of the decline in the European Birthrate.

A recipe for Neo-Liberal Fucking:- You Will Need;

A Thermometer.
A sheet with a hole, (useful for veiling both Mantilla* and bridal)
A clipboard.
Valium.
Uppers.

Note: Fake tan gets on the sheets.

A good prop is a big hairy dog but don't cut off his bollox.

Never say CUNT.

On a certain pilgrimage to Canterbury Cathedral, wherin Thomas a Beckett
was murdered by application of an axe to the crown, Mister Geoffrey Chaucer
created possibly the best representation of a female type woman in the
whole of English literature: The Wyf of Bath.

A woman of great importance who like a shag, thanks Geoff.

The elements of that pilgrimage provided us with a needful image of
medieval church/state corruption- a fascinating tableau.

The anti-wyf of Bath, endemic today in a society of conspicuous consumption
is a fragmented shard of neo-liberal scruplousity- look at her image, stand up
Cherie Blair. She is veiled and cauterised. She wears garments cut to her shape
by a provocative establishment, the language of which is grounded in equality,
but the undertone is of empire.

In the photos of Cherie and Benedict she wears a veil, covering her femininity
her white hand clasps the white hand of the dogmatic pope, she is here to discuss
the falling birth-rate of Fortress Europe.

The veil is key to fucking neo-liberals.

Whilst she pilgrimages 2/3 of the planet is subsumed in a immensity of fear
provoked by the dying of Empire.The immensity of the veil covers the
wrongs of the failed capitalist system and the abuses of the catholic church.
Dogmaticism catholicism refuses to countenance women, it insists on celibacy,
it stigmatises blood- be it in the concept of the 'sin' of procreation, the concept
of limbo and right down to the acceptance of child abuse as normative.

Back to the anti-wyf of Bath: her spoor is traceable through the colonic
irrigation cycle, the bridal veil is civil and religious union- she often
sets up foundations in her name, it helps with the sleeplessness....
Her fragmented psyche is evident in the tremoulosness that hovers
round her lips and her desire to subsume her feminity within a seeming
propriety.

Meantime the icons of our era are ethnically cleansed of their sexual and
maternal reality for refusing to take the veil when it is held up to their eyes.
Thank you Aan san Suu Kyi (your parents named you with love)
Margaret Hassan, Rachel Corrie, the women of Rossport, Greenham
common, the women suffering in war.

No wonder the European birthrate is declining the pope and Cherie
have their hands on our bits, and the worls tosses in its sleep.
They have their well-groomed hands all over our freedoms.

*Mantill- a veil worn to cover the hair, when meeting a pope or cardial or bishop.
*Never , ever say CUNT.
* A badly done brazilian makes your cunt look like a goatee.
