It must be tough being a refugee.

Having to flee your war-torn home country, not knowing whether you'll be able to eat for days or even weeks, unsure of where you and your children will be sleeping night after night – it sounds like a terrible existence. You know what would make it better, though? Realising that the nice lady from Mr. And Mrs. Smith is thinking about you.

Oh, yes – Angelina Jolie has jetted out to Syria to chat with a load of Iraqi refugees. Quite how the downtrodden hordes took to meeting the U.N's 'goodwill ambassador' has yet to be confirmed – although possibly something along the lines of "Stop playing up the self-harm thing, it's boring now," "Tomb Raider really was rubbish, you know," or maybe "'goodwill' won't feed my fucking children, you useless Hollywood twatbasket."

Jolie finished her time in the region by travelling to a makeshift outpost on the Syria/Iraq border, where a thousand or so desperate homeless wanderers no doubt turned to each other and said: "you know what? Things aren't all that bad. If Jon Voight's daughter can raise a smile, then so can I!" Or perhaps just carried on sobbing silently to themselves.

Jolie said:

"I have come to Syria and Iraq to help draw attention to the humanitarian crisis and to urge governments to increase their support for UNHCR and its partners. My sole purpose in both countries is to highlight the plight of those uprooted by the war in Iraq. It is absolutely essential that the ongoing debate about Iraq's future includes plans for addressing the enormous humanitarian consequences these people face."

hecklerspray is obviously a little behind the times. We would have thought this should be the sort of thing that a politician does, but – hey – those boring 'elected representative' types just don't have the same cracking set of tits as the Jolester, do they?

Apart from John Prescott, of course. His are huge.
