Considering this to be an ill conceived joke, not because it could
appear 'controversial', but because it lacks... I dunno, humour?
Comedy?
But it raises a good point, however. It perceives the concept of not
dealing with a situation proportionally.
'Someone is misusing A' -> 'Let's make A illegal'.
I would argue that this also sort of illustrates Wales' immediate
behaviour. 'Bad press' -> 'Do something!'
Ironically, I think the solution to this problem is status quo. But
no one will accept that solution. That's what got this whole thing
started!
