In one of the last actions of his ten-year reign Tony Blair is urging everyone in Great Britain to be aware of a chronic shortage of the letter W, owing to its overuse in the creation of websites begining with 'www'.
"It's quite serious," said Noah Vale, Minister of Grammar, in a press conference this week. "There are thousands of websites created here in the UK and more and more springing up every day, all beginning with www. Something has to be done to stop the decline of this age-old letter. We don't want it to end up like another dodo."
The government is urging anyone setting up a new website to use the option of the mere 'http', or to use the letter 'v' together.
"If we don't do this the letter 'w' is in danger of extinction, and will definitely be rationed, like water in hot weather," added Noah Vale.
Tony Blair is also trying to get citizens to decease from using words beginning with 'w', like water, werewolf, weather, wanker, and willie warmer, and wants people such as Edward Woodward and Wee Willie Winkie to change their names by deed poll.
