"Welcome, children, to your first term at the new Berkley. We have a slightly revised curriculum for this first term: at 9am it will be 'Basic concrete laying', followed by double 'Safely rewiring a building' at 10. After lunch will be 'Landscaping 101' followed by gym, where we are all looking forward to seeing who wins the 'Carry as many concrete blocks from the truck to the site' competition. Enjoy!"

The citizens of Wonderland wonder, "How come the politicians and bigshots are the only ones with safety helmets" The lesson of the day? Membership has its privilidges.

It gradually dawned on the kids that the promised white-knuckle experience was not a theme park rollercoaster but just switching on the classroom lights.

The Wonderland experiment was scrapped after the children immediately bought wider Big Wheel's for themselves, went $120M overbudget on the new swingset, and commissioned a 600 page essay entitled, "Look at My Right Hand, While I Screw You With My Left"...

"Now children ... The time has come to talk of many things: Of shoes—and ships—and sealing wax—of cabbages—and kings—and why the sea is boiling hot—and whether pigs have wings" ... and with those words the independance indoctrination classes began at Purvis.

Ok, children. Put on your hardhats, like the grownups are wearing. You're going to need them, with all the $#!% that's going to be heaped on your heads.
And so, without further ado...
Premier Alex Scott.
(The sound of raucus applause and many, many hard hats being put on... quickly)

After getting their hopes up and even providing special promotional hats and jackets, Rosemary has to tell the kids that she only just found out that the Wonderland showing at the cinema isn’t Alice in Wonderland.

After intense study of the US Congress, it seemed to make perfect sense to let the children run the country.

Unable to stand the blunders in the PLP's new Bermuda, code named "Wonderland" several people in the back looked down at their shoes, clicked 3 times and said "I wish I were home".

And anybody do we have an Alice... anyone ... any Alice's out there... We have some holes to be filled.

Alice doesn't live here any more...
Only the next generation of expatriate workers.

“I will always tell the truth. I might not tell all of it.”
So that's why it's called "Wonderland".

In light of recent studies about the negative imapact of poor body image, the Dept of Education in cooperation with the "John Mayer foundation for well adjusted Children" (JMFF-WAC)launched the "Your Body is a Wonderland Programme". The opening took place at the newly finished Berkeley Educational Site where those in the know wore helmets and children were encouraged to wear red...just in case.

Seeing so many red shirts in one place the savvier one's decided to don helmuts. Just in case.

Even the children realized that Wonderland, like many other building projects was going to take alot more than just fancy hats, snazzy shirts and lots of lipservice to get it done.

Realising it wasn't enough just to look and sound like, the kids decided that to get funding for their schoolk roof, they'd better dress like P as well.

In a desperate attempt to increase their approval ratings the PLP has been visiting schools and hoping to convice parents through their children, that Wonderland can and does exist if only everyone would believe everything they say.
School visits are paid for by the government.

One school makes brains larger, and one school makes them small, but the schools that Alex gives you, don't give any help at all....just ask Alex, when he was just small.
And if you go chasing lessons and you know you're going to fail, tell em a hooka-smoking premier has told you just to bail.....there's always Westgate, a waterfront jail!
Mussenden on the micro, gets up and tells you where to go, but you've just had some kind of brainwash and your mind is moving low....
Go ask Alex, I think he'll know when logic and proportion have been all ignored in the mix
And the Colonel is talking backwards cause the queen needs his regal fix
REMEMBER what Gabriel said....use your head, use your head
