In a galaxy far, far away.
A princess called Diana died.
Was it:
a) The paparazzi's fault
b) The driver's fault
c) The British public's fault
d) Diana's fault
e) The car's fault
f) Everyone's fault
g) No one's fault
h) Is it helpful to blame people?
If you get really angry and blamey about something do you go to court or torch someone's house in a blamey mob.
Or do some people just cry.

NHS abuse over criticism
As London goes to the polls to elect the Mayor and assembly and the junior doctor's fight to be allowed into a negotiation over their new contracts, a grieving mother has received verbal abuse.
Sara Ryan who tragically lost her son within the Southern Health NHS trust, has been labelled a "vindictive cow" by someone claiming to be a member of NHS staff.
Sara has been campaigning for accountability within the trust after her son drowned in a bath in the Slade house in Oxfordshire.
Shocking attacks
The message (as reported by The Guardian) started well, with the statement "it's tragic, and I hope you find some closure after the report," but descended into abuse.
A Southern health spokesman is investigating the call.
It is shocking to think that a member of NHS staff would behave in this way, after all a campaign and criticism from a grieving mother should be seen within the context of the loss she has just suffered.
No one is their best self while grieving, especially when that grief is for a child.
Thoughts for the future
I hope that once an investigation has been completed that the trust will identify this alleged member of staff and take them to task.
If you're putting a cross in a box today think carefully about what direction you want the world to go in and which candidate is offering that direction.
