Karen and the letter
Created by Hale Roe and Lauren Scorah
"Mummy do I have to do my homework?" Karen asked having just returned from a very hard day at school, "yes darling me and daddy are getting the tea ready so now is a good time to do it, off you go" she told her "please don't burn the dinner again mummy last night's pizza was like eating charcoal that had been trumped on my a homeless man" she added before sloping off to the living room as sue poured a large glass of wine.
In the living room Karen has decided not to do her homework and was flicking through the tv channels trying to find something good to watch when she came across the 24 hour news where the topic of conversation was the new bedroom tax being imposed by David Cameron and his cronies " he can't do that it's not right" Karen commented to herself, " what's not right darling" sue asked as she came into the living room carrying some plates of food " well that man who is in charge of the country is telling everybody they have to pay him lots of money if they have spare bedrooms in there house which they do not use and I think that is very wrong I mean he lives in a massive house with loads of spare bedrooms but he won't have to pay any money it's just not fair" Karen said crossing her arms, " you have a good point Karen" Pete told her as David Cameron appeared on the TV to be interviewed , he came on and was laughing and joking with the other presenters " what a greedy robbing pillock I hate his smug face" Pete commented " he is a real twat daddy I agree" Karen said before hurling her spaghetti bolognaise at the TV " you go Karen" Ben cheered before doing the same "WHY DID YOU THROW YOUR DINNER AT THE TELEVISON" sue demanded to know" well if I throw something at the television it will go straight through and hit him in the face and then everybody will laugh and him and he will go bright red with embarrassment like daddy did that time when ben pulled his underpants down in the middle of Sainsbury's" Karen explained, Pete winced at the memory, " right Karen go to your room and and think about what you have done Pete told her, Karen then got up from the sofa and went upstairs" "I am going to write a letter" she told her mum and dad and this is what it said…
Hello Mr Cameron the prime minister person
I am writing this letter to tell you I am not happy about your idea to make everybody pay for extra bedrooms that they do not use, I do not think this is fair because you live in a house with lots of bedroom but you won't have to pay it and I think this is really not fair also my daddy thinks you're a twat and a pillock and he wants to hunt you down and chop of your man part and burn all your friends who help you I would also like to tell you that I will kick you in the face if I ever see you anywhere just to let you know.
Lots of love from Karen Brockman ( age 7)
Once Karen had finished the letter she put it in an envelope and headed downstairs "mummy what is the address for where the prime minister lives" Karen asked " its 10 downing street darling why" sue asked " no reason Karen replied before heading back upstairs and writing the address on the letter before sneaking out and posting it.
A while later sue came into Karen's room as she was getting into bed " why did you want to know the prime ministers address" sue asked " so that I could post my letter to him that I wrote" Karen said " oh so where is the letter now…just so I can see what you wrote before you send it" sue asked " oh it's too late mummy I already posted it and I told him how daddy wants to hunt him down and set fire to his friends" Karen told her " oh shit" sue muttered under her breath as she left Karen's room and bumped into Pete who had been listening " what are we going to do" a very worried Pete said as he and sue looked at each other horrified at what Karen had done.
