# Let's have a think...
Hold on. this looks flawed. Breaking the Law and Rant seem to have the same score, but the bars are of different lengths.

# your MP has little authority over b3ta
we're not hosted in the UK - which is partly why the world is so fucked - much of the law governments pass nationally can't effectively control the businesses who operate internationally.

When I think about it, B3ta is basically to blame for the banking crisis.

Well if you ever decide to nobly support emerging British creative talent and do a favour for a loyal b3tan's bro then please consider a little plug ;o)

I accept that this is hugely cheeky given that Paramount are pushing the movie, but I'm insanely proud of him and want to do everything in my limited power to support him in this.

# Botch jobs or bodged jobs.
IMHO.

Botch job - one which has gone wrong
Bodged job - one where a solution has been improvised from highly rudimentary materials, usually to a successful outcome.
