Rain makes my bone spurs hurt, complains Donald Trump

Donald Trump has much in common with the common man. For example, damp weather makes his joints hurt. This is not an unusual occurrence in a man of 72, but, on this occasion, Trump claimed that rain causing pain in his infamous bone spurs meant he had to cancel a visit to a French cemetery.

As normal with Trump, nothing is quite the way it seems. One Twitter user reminded the POTUS that his bone spurs had healed. “The pain is where they used to be,” Trump tweeted back. “Phantom pain is worse than regular pain. I hurt worser than everybody else. Sad!”

The White House attempted to explain the no-show by asserting that Marine 1, the presidential helicopter, was unable to take off due to bad weather. Melania allegedly confirmed that this is not the first time that Donald couldn’t get it up.

Disgruntled former White House staff have suggested that the real reason for Trump’s absence was vanity. “His hair melts when it comes into contact with water,” said former aide Lou Slipps. “Seriously. He looks like there’s custard on his head. And his fake tan runs when it rains, like mascara when you cry.”

The fact remains that Donald Trump, the president who is unable to handle an umbrella, failed to attend the ceremony. Oddly, he managed to overcome his pain barrier to attend another ceremony 24 hours later, with no complaints. Even more oddly, Vladimir Putin was present at this subsequent event. It seems like Trump dare not snub his boss.

However, President Macron was pleased with the presence of his guest. “Donald eez zis very funny man,” Macron said. “’E told us ‘is life ‘istorie over, ‘ow you say, brunch. My Eenglish eez being not so good, because ‘alf ze time I sought ‘e was talking ze gibberish!”

Donald Trump. Just the man to rain on your parade.

The Beatles’ White Album reissued as Multicultural Album

There have been many revisions over the years for reasons of political correctness, making Doctor Who a woman and James Bond’s sidekick Felix Leiter black are just two recent examples. But the latest concerns the world of music.

The Beatles’ celebrated White Album, being reissued for its fiftieth anniversary, has just been reissued as the Multicultural Album, to reflect the more enlightened times.

The move has approval from both surviving Beatles Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, as well as John Lennon’s widow Yoko Ono and both his sons Julian (by his first wife Cynthia) and Sean, and George Harrison’s widow Olivia and son Dhani.

At a joint press conference, Paul, Ringo, Yoko and Giles Martin, son of the the album’s original producer George Martin, made the announcement.

“We’ve done a lot of thinking about this,” Paul McCartney said, “and we decided this was important. This album has been the White Album for half a century, but the human race isn’t all white. Even back in the 60s in Liverpool we had a lot of different people of different skin colours, and they all matter. And Beatles music has always been from a very diverse range of styles. So we’re reflecting that with this relaunch of one of our best albums.”

Yoko Ono added, “this album’s reissue is dedicated to all the peoples of the world, black, white, yellow, red, everyone. If you are a person, then this album is dedicated to you, regardless of skin colour. John wrote a lot of songs about the desire for peace, and I know he would approve of this decision.”

The album, which features hits such as Revolution and Back In The USSR, comes complete with a redesigned cover representing all the major ethnic groups.

Many people have welcomed the move with open arms. Jeremy Corbyn has been particularly congratulatory about it:

“The Beatles were ahead of their time in singing songs about wanting love and peace, and this move proves it yet again.”

Not everyone has welcomed the move however. Nigel Farage in particular was very vocal in his disapproval:

“It’s the White Album,” he said emphatically. “It always has been the White Album and it always will be the White Album, not any of this politically correct nonsense. I for one refuse to buy any album with the world Multicultural in the name.”

The Beatles’ Multicultural Album is in the shops now.

Johnson resigns from the government to spend less time with his family

No, not that Johnson. The other one. The one who isn’t Boris.

BoJo’s baby brother blatantly bashed Brexit by blasting Theresa May’s latest pathetic “plan”. “I can’t support that load of old bollocks,” he said frankly. “I could quite honestly have belched a better strategy. And no, you may not call me ‘JoJo’!”

This leaves Jo Johnson in a tricky position. He is at odds with his media whore brother, his rent-a-gob sister and celebrity wannabe father. “They are no longer speaking to me,” he comments. “By displaying principles, I have betrayed the family motto ‘Nunquam Vere Dicam’. It’s quite a relief, let me tell you!”

Johnson junior joins the slow but steady trickle of MPs now opposing Brexit. Some, like Johnson, because it is clearly rubbish. Others, because their vision of modern feudalism is evaporating before their eyes.

“His Lordship is appalled at the state of affairs!” grovels Bowen Scrape, spokesflunkey of Jacob Rees-Mogg. “His Brexit Dividend of thousands of tied villeins tithing him fifty percent of everything they produce is collapsing faster than you can say Carillon.”

Conspiracy theories abound connecting lunatic politics in the UK and the USA with Russia. Dirty trickster Oskar Sczeremony claims to know the truth. “I can disclose that Vladimir Putin is not a happy bunny,” he reports. “British pragmatism is destroying his plan much too soon. If things don’t change soon, you will suddenly discover that Jeremy Corbyn makes sexist remarks, and there will be a steady flow of Russians eager to visit Salisbury Cathedral.”

Meanwhile Brexit can continue to limp towards the finish line. It’s classic misdirection. “Four months of looking elsewhere, is that too much to ask?” moans Sczeremony. “After 29 March, who gives a shit? But the Johnson brothers have ruined everything. We’d have gotten away with it if it weren’t for those meddling kids!”

That’s what they are. A pair of Johnsons.

Great Uncle Bulgaria issues Cease And Desist orders to Tommy Robinson and Theresa May

Both Theresa May and Tommy Robinson have attracted a lot of criticism since stepping into the political limelight, but the latest name to speak out against them is from a most unexpected source and for a very unique reason.

Great Uncle Bulgaria has spoken out publicly against both of them for using his likeness in their mode of dress. His lawyer gave a press conference on his behalf, and issued the following statement:

“I can confirm that, acting on behalf of a Mr G. U. Bulgaria of Wimbledon Common, I have issued Cease And Desist notices to both Theresa May and Tommy Robinson individually regarding their mimicking his likeness with their choice of apparel.”

Mr Robinson was quick to respond:

“No way Jose! I’m British and I’ll wear what I like. That foreign **** can jolly well change his clothes, and if he doesn’t like it he should go home to Bulgaria!”

It was then explained to Mr Robinson that Bulgaria is his name, not his home country, and that Mr Bulgaria is a British citizen. Robinson quickly retorted:

“Well that’s just stupid!”

It was then pointed out that Dawn French isn’t French, and Irving Berlin didn’t come from Berlin at which point Mr Robinson went into a meltdown – his further comments are unprintable.

Mrs May has so far declined to comment on the matter.

Mr Bulgaria has been a British citizen since 1968 and has gained legendary status in the world of recycling. His ability to make constructive use of everyday objects other people have discarded is described as second to none by those who have met him.

We await further developments with baited breath.

Downing Street plan to place British fish in protective custody on land wins backing from Russian ambassador

Comrade Nigel Farage, Russian ambassador to Little England, gave much needed support today to the Downing Street plan to place all British fish in protective custody, on land, to ensure they aren’t stolen by Brussels during the closing stages of Brexit negotiations.

”I wasn’t awarded the award of the Hero of the Russian Federation because I wasn’t deeply concerned about British fish,” Farage told listeners to his breakfast programme, ‘A little dose of fash and cash’ on seriously confused broadcaster LBC today, “and my in-depth knowledge tells me that the traitor Ms May is finally seeing sense about how to protect British fishing and not have the entire industry stolen by the thugs in Brussels when it more properly should be bundled off and sold to the highest overseas bidder under the noses of indepdent operators at home.”

Under plan, said to be the brainchild of Environment Secretary Michael Gove and a hell of a lot of wishful thinking, all British fish will be written to by the Home Office and ordered to immediately present themselves for safekeeping at a British port.

The fish will then be transported to specially built dry land holiday camps, where they will wait out the reminder of Brexit negotiations and the construction of the deep water wall to be built around the British isles once we have successfully reclaimed our waters from the tyrants across the Channel.

”Lock them up!” Nigel “the rouble” Farage exalted his rapt listener, “and then throw away the key! See what Juncker makes of that!”

Dominic Raab hospitalised after getting into a fight with his reflection in mirror

“I hadn’t quite understood the results of blowing your feet off with a shotgun,” Dominic Raab told a rapt audience last night, “But I still insist the UK blow its feet off with a shotgun, because of the significant savings to be had on socks and shoes.”

The insistence on the chosen course, in spite of new discoveries (that very many people already knew) is certain to bolster the UK’s negotiating hand with the tyrannical EU.

”They know we mean business,” Raab continued, “who wants to mess with someone so determined they’re prepared to chop off their negotiating hand with a meat cleaver? Barnier dresses well. He’ll be terrified of the potential dry cleaning bill should any of our blood splatter get on his suit. Right now he’s begging Chancellor Markle to demand she uses her family connections to have Prince Harry accept the EU’s surrender.”

Of this Raab looked certain. He was a little more contrite during the closing stages of his address though, when he revealed some recent discoveries to the audience, expecting them to be just as surprised as he was.

”Bears shit in the woods. Did you know that? Not many people know that. The Pope IS catholic. The sun also rises. Oh, and most shocking of all, the U.K. is an island! Pretty much floored me that, when I realised it.”

He went on for some time after, explaining the possibilities for booming trade with the rest of the world, after Brexit, just as soon as we discover if the rest of the world is also an island, or not.

The speech concluded he stepped triumphantly from the lectern and caught a glimpse of his own reflection in a mirrored surface.

That was when it happened.

”Who the hell are you?” Raab demanded of the thuggish looking stranger in the mirror.

When the aggressively stupid interloper just mimicked him, Raab threw the first punch, both of them at once.

Doctors report he is expected to recover, after hand surgery, he’ll still be a wanker, and happily there was no facial damage, because his head was wedged securely in his arse.

British political earthquake Brexit blamed on UK politics being fracked

Fresh denials today from government that the total and complete fracking of Westminster politics by secretly funded “thinktanks” has anything to do with the earthquakes currently fracking the UK’s political landscape.

”The fact that politics is the United Kingdom are now so fracked a government drone like Secretary for Health Apps, little Matty Handoncock (MP – UKIP), can say with a straight face the government is stockpiling fridges to stockpile life saving, short shelf life medicines they won’t be able to import anyway,

”because they’re insisting private industry pays the cost and takes the risk, after spending years telling private industry to frack itself,

“and then gagging private industry so it can’t say how fracked we are, and we’ve no time to build production capacity in country before calamity, none of this has anything to do with the fracking of British politics by obscurely funded thinktanks, given democratic names to help their insidious creep across our political landscape, ideological fracking rigs in hand, like a mash up of the red weed from ‘War of the Worlds’ and a stealthy fascist takeover,” said a government spokesman appointed to speak for Downing Street by the Taxpayers Alliance, which conversely is against all taxpaying, because it’s much better to have a feudal political landscape.

But while that clarification clears way for the secretly funded thinktanks to continue their work of being the creeping damp and dry rot and fungal infections of our politics, it doesn’t explain how we arrived at a political earthquake on the scale of Brexit. Absolutely nothing at all to do with the links of serving MPs and rightwing thinktanks. Nothing at all.

So the search will go on to explain how Westminster came to experience unceasing earthquakes and if we don’t find the cause we’re all going to get fracked, really deep and really hard.

”It’s got nothing to do with the fracking thinktanks,” the TPA appointed government spokesman reiterated. Indeed.

Theresa May to play the witch in The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe remake

The Chronicles Of Narnia have been on many a child’s reading list for over half a century, and there have been many adaptions of them in film, TV and radio, but the latest version has put a decidedly contemporary twist on the tales.

A new modern version of The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe has commenced production, made by a Swedish production company.

Instead of four British children being evacuated during World War II, the action occurs on a family day out to IKEA, where the four Lindstrom children, on the run from a security guard they have angered, happen across a self-assembly wardrobe that has is ready-made on display in the store.

Jumping into the wardrobe, the four children, renamed Bjorn, Benny, Agnetha and Frida, find themselves magically transported to the frozen wastelands of a strange country called Britannia, where it is always Brexit Winter but never Brexit Dividend Christmas.

It then proceeds pretty much as it does in the book, they meet all the familiar characters, including the White Witch, played in this adaption by Theresa May.

“Theresa was just perfect for the part,” film producer Lars Chance explained at the press conference. “There really was nobody else we were even looking at to play this role.”

There is however one stumbling block. The role of Aslan, the noble lion who defeats the witch in battle, has still not been cast.

“We just can’t find anybody with the right gravitas to play the role,” Mr Chance explained. “Actually Jeremy Corbyn auditioned for the part at first, but while he does has a lot of good qualities, he just rolled over in front of the witch, so instead we gave him the role of Mr Tumnus the faun, who has a good heart and knows that what the witch is doing is wrong, but lacks the conviction to truly stand up and actively oppose her.”

The script of this film looks very promising, and could be the best adaption of C.S. Lewis yet, if that crucial part can be cast. We sincerely hope they find their Aslan soon.

Theresa May to replace Posh Spice for Spice Girl’s tour

UK prime minister Theresa May has confirmed that she has accepted an invitation to replace Victoria “Posh Spice” Beckham as the fifth Spice Girl for next year’s Spice Girl’s UK tour.

A spokesman for 10 Downing street explained that having successfully masterminded the UK’s liberation from the world’s largest free trade zone, and the complete and utter destruction of the UK economy,  on April 1st, Mrs May feels that she is entitled to a little down time from politics.

“The Prime Minister would like to have time to spend on her other interests such as wearing outrageously over the top outfits and perfecting her embarrassing “granny dancing” moves,” he said, denying that her private office had been in touch with Lady Gaga for sartorial advice.
“I think we can say that she’s well “gaga” enough already,” smirked the spokesman.

A spokesman for the newly reformed Spice Girls also confirmed that Mrs May would be joining the four aging singers on their newly announced UK tour next year.

“The girls have been very impressed by Theresa’s dress sense and her dancing ability and her complete disregard for what the people “really really want”, and feel that her cultured accent more than qualifies her to be the new “Posh,” he said denying that Mrs May’s complete lack of singing ability was likely to present a problem.

“They’re going to be miming to a backing track just like all their other live appearances so no one will notice if she sounds like a bag of nails in a smoothie maker,” he added.

Commenting on the news legendary music writer Trailer Parts suggested that Mrs May’s decision in many ways represents the ideal career move and could even  spark a trend.

“The transition from dishonest vacuous, self serving politician peddling hollow slogans like “Red White and Blue Brexit” to vacuous, money grabbing “singer” peddling hollow slogans like “girl power” is quite a natural one requiring little refocusing,” he explained.

According to Parts other leading politicians are expected to follow her lead, with rumours circulating that former Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg has been invited to cement his epoch defining blandness by dueting with Coldplay, with Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn’s insistence on supporting Brexit apparently having impressed the two remaining members of Nirvana, to the extent that they are about to offer him the chance to front a reunion tour in place of the late Kurt Cobain.

“If dragging the entire Labour movement over the Brexit precipice isn’t the metaphorical equivalent of blowing your own head off with a shotgun I don’t know what is,” he explained.

C4 charged with betraying the will of the people after revealing the will of the people

Fake knews broadcaster C4 is to be charged with the knew crime of “betraying the will off the people” after deliberately revealing the will of the people live on a little C4 chat show last night.

”Of course it doesn’t matter what the people now think,” Barry Gardiner MP, UKIP, told LCD Views, “the people decided what their will was a few years back and it doesn’t matter if their will has dramatically altered because we’re determined to assist Theresa May’s (MP – UKIP) government implement the will of the people from when it was fixed in stone by a thunderbolt from God.”

The shock revelation of the change in attitude of the people of the U.K. doesn’t matter because it wasn’t assessed in the right way.

”Was there mass data crime in the latest Survation poll of 20,000 people? Well above the 5,000 required for scientific rigour? Was there undue foreign influence? Was there millions funnelled into the campaign from shadowy overseas backers determined to see the break up of the EU for their own kleptoimperialist motives?”

Apparrently not, it was a poll conducted in the Standard manner without the above.

”Then it doesn’t count. Not that campaigns influence people’s decisions anyway. Just ask my boss John McDonnell (MP – UKIP) or our trumpeter Owen Jones (MP – UKIP). Crime should pay. Especially if you’re fantasising about taking government with Henry VIIi powers in the midst of economic calamity and want to bring everything conceivable under total state control. For the many you understand. C4 shouldn’t be standing in the way of the people by revealing what they think based on several yearsnew evidence.”

And Mr Gardiner (MP – UKIP) wasn’t alone in his frank assessment of C4’s betrayal of the people.

”I’m changing the law today, with Henry VIII powers,” David Gauke (MP – UKIP) phoned in especially to tell us, “it was nice of parliament to vote through the EU Withdrawal Bill and make itself irrelevant. Slackers. Ha!”

But betraying the will of the people by revealing the will of the people becoming criminalised isn’t the only change coming in immediately, thanks to Henry VIII powers.

”We’ll also probably be making mass, secretive foreign donations to U.K. political campaigns entirely legal,” the minister (UKIP) clarified, “that way people who buy influence in our once great democratic institutions can be sure of getting what they wanted. Oh, and the change will be retrospective, just in case any of my colleagues find themselves in the shit as little Banksi gets hung out to dry.”
