Is Black Bossy?

The new borders and immigration force was launched without any agreement on the question of its uniform.

It should be remembered by the Regime that traditionally black is worn only by extra-territorial forces, and that within the homeland grey is the standard colour. The silver flashes and motifs of course can be common to both uniform styles.

Trousers should perhaps be pouched just above the ankle and finished with short boots, rather than just below the knee and finished with the jackboot; this last might be thought to be over-egging the pudding. Suggestions are made only tentatively, as reports of biting, scratching and nose-picking over the refusal of black (although the minister of the Interior may have been indicating a preference in her choice of costume colour at the initiation ceremony), and central interference with the funding of uniforms until the Leader's preferences have been satisfied, suggest feeling is running high.

The password securing of access to the New Progressive Governance logo, of the swastika resting on the red rose of our Regime, to control the consciousness-raising impact of the Regime's symbols, clearly cannot apply to the uniforms of the Interior ministry's new parasecurity force, given its interactive, outreach role within the civil population.

Swastika? How prescient ...
