The SAGE Bunch are entering their Last Chance Saloon. If their November locko fails to solve all of the nation’s problems, they all get the sack. No ands, no ifs, no buts. Gone. Reputations trashed.

WEEK 1      Locko or Notto? That is the question!

Youth-anasia?
The bloke who founded a chain of eateries reckons that it's not worth having another national lockdown to save the lives of a few thousand ancient and sick people if it blights the lives of the young for 20-30 years.
   How long will it be before we get similar 'community leaders' calling for the assassination of these inconvenient bods to make the problem for the young go away?
   Welcome to Onlinea, where no idea or person is too nutty not to have a gang of followers.

In the current climate of confection & backlash, is Amazon taking its life in its hands by holding a Blacque Friday event?

Distant admiration
“Milkman turned actor Sean Canary is being offered as an iconic Scot. So iconic, in fact, that he chose to go and live in the Bahamas rather than a native land blighted by decades of Labour then SNP misrule.” Slurp McGurp

To sneak or not?
Motorists who drive through Romiley regularly have spotted that some of the speed bumps are next to strips of road which have been isolated as a parking zone with broken white lines. And if the zone is unoccupied, they can keep left and keep their foot down, and drive through the zone to avoid the speed bump completely.

Anyone in Tier 3 is safe from Trick or Treaters.
“When they say 'trick or treat', you just smile and tell them you'll have a treat, please. Really baffles the grabbing little buggers.” Gorrie Zontal

Wilful Stupidity of the Week: the ban on shops selling alcohol after 9 p.m.

Different method, same outcome
Hijacking an airliner and claiming asylum when it lands in Britain used to be the sure-fire way of getting to stay here plus a free ride, no matter how evil a piece of trash you are.
   But the disastrous downturn in the air travel industry has meant a change of tactics. Stowing away on an oil tanker and trying to hijack it in British waters is the new style.

Forget substantial, substitute sub-standard
In Manchester, police licensing officers are visiting pubs & bars to enforce the substantial meal rule. Regular readers will not be surprised to learn that these wonks have no idea what constitutes a substantial meal. But they have concluded that a 600-calorie slice from a giant pizza is too small to qualify and only a complete 22" pizza will do.
To no one's surprise, Manchester's cosmetic mayor remains in his bunker and he is making no effort to make the confused coppers see sense.

Making a Bid for Joe’s approval, or Bidet Rehab
As the current US presidential carnival draws to a close, the bridge builders are trying to tell us that Sleepy Joe might not kno who he's running against, but he's a great guy who had our back 40 years ago during the Falklands War when President Ronnie Raygun wanted us to let the Argies win. Pretty thin, guys. Probably just a Democrap going the opposite way to a Republican because that's what they do.
“Just don't mention having the IRA's back and all the other anti-British stuff.” Kleo Kill

49er miners plus quite a lot
Prospectors panning for gold in Scotland are about to get some competition from a commercial outfit, which reckons it knows where to dig deep holes to extract gold to the value of £255 MILLION at today's inflated price.

Timely reminder: Scotland should not let Gordon F. Broon anywhere near its national gold mines in case he drops the world price of gold by one-half, as he did before he sold off 50% of the UK's gold reserves when Chancer of the Exchequer.

The bosses of the publicly owned The Post Office are doing the public the wonderful favour of scrapping one-third of its free-to-use ATMs.

We've had steampunk and dieselpunk.
Wot's next? Electricpunk? Nukepunk?

In sameness there is . . . stoopidity?
Universal lockdown rules over the Xmas & New Year holiday for the whole of the UK is in line for the Stoopidest Idea of the Year Award 2020. The government needs to tell its proponents that they can have it only if they can ensure that the virus rate everywhere in the UK is the same.

Q: Are we surprised that looney left wonks everywhere are demanding the same lockdown rulz for everywhere in the UK @ Xmas regardless of plague levels?
A: Nope. It's exactly the sort of stoopidity we expect from the loonies.

Good News (for astronauts): NASA has found a pond of water one-third the size of England on the Moon. Enough for a colony with agriculture and hydrogen fuel.
Bad News: It's frozen in tiny nooks & crannies all over the place and consolidating it will be a HUGE pain.
[And probably unaffordable. Ed.]
Worse News: The vast lunar pond is a product of a mathematical model, which will require one or more rover missions of exploration and extraction to be sent to the Moon to check whether the pond is real or just a fanciful illusion.

Q: How daft do you have to be to jump out of a helicopter 131 feet above the sea and make a feet-first landing in the water in search of a world record?
A: Bloody.

We tried to tell them that the rotten government had banned Halloween.
But they just wouldn’t bloody listen!
And they’re not going away!

President Boris has had a pre-locko haircut.
Same again next year?

How long will it last?
100,000 people getting the Chinese plague every day in England. That's a million every 10 days, 3 million per month and the entire population of England will have had it by the end of May 2022.

Just another bloody opportunist
“Kreepy Steamer is fooling no one. It wasn't his idea to have a national lockdown. That was forced on him because it was the opposite of government policy at the time.
   “If the government had proposed a national locko in September, Sir Kreepy would have been sounding off against it with the same lack of sincerity.” Machine Tapefrog.

Q: How do you avoid being arrested when you hit a cyclist whilst doing a U-turn in your car and then stroll off?
A: Be Sir Kreepy Steamer.

“No, they all croak at home because of the locko wished on us by his Xperts and because they're too scared of the plague to go near a hospital.” Jami Calnasti

Cheerful News (not). You get a cold. You get better. You get another cold. Same with the Chinese plague, the Xperts reckon.

Q: Why is a former Supreme Court judge sounding off against plague restrictions as tyrannical and a precursor of long-term authoritarianism?
A: Maybe he's worried that the government will stop judges from making up their own laws and ignoring what's in the statute books.
“It is not without good reason that its politicians and lawyers & the rest of the legal trade to the lamp posts, come the revolution.” Rag Narok

“Captain Hook. £25 MILLION. Ker-bloody-ching!” Rashgan Vuyshol

“But constable, it's small 'coz I have ate three-quarters of it. Don't make no difference, chummie, you are still bleedin' nicked.” Ellie DeGenerate

Prince Hairy walks about in his wife's shoes.
   What is he? Some kind of masochist?

Small loophole
Carol singing is banned unless the participants stand in a circle, spaced 2 metres apart and all facing out from the centre. And safely spaced from anyone listening in.

Anyone caught breaking the plague rules is advised to plead brain fog caused by the virus in the hope that the magistrates or a judge is mug enough to fall for it.

“If he had any integrity, Bidet the Bookmark would have stepped aside in favour of someone 40 years younger. But he didn't.” Cashier Nadal

Q: What do you get if you're a 42-year-old Brazilian convict who has killed 48 other inmates @ various gaols, including 5 in one go?
A: No, not a medal. Gaol sentences totalling 217 years with more to come.

Police forces are busting a gut to increase the number of fines issued by speed-cam traps in known areas of maximum revenue to make up for a 27% reduction in fines issued for using a phone while driving. Motoring organizations are not amused. Neither are motorists.

They are still at it
The slavery industry is busy confecting links to Royal palaces, including those that predate the slave-trading era. Presumably, if they got a coat of paint or some refurbishing in the 17th and/or 18th century, the confecters will assume the cash had to come from slaving.
“It probably provides employment to otherwise unemployable obsessives, all the confecting.” S. Cribble

Q: H2S—unnecessary & unaffordable?
A: Yup.

The travel industry is claiming that people who go abroad are no more likely to get a dose of the plague than if they'd stayed at home.

Q: How do you cop for a locko fine of £6K.
A: Post a picture online of yourself out & about @ an eatery when you should be at home, self-isolating.

Fighting talk
France has declared war on the Islamist Terror Tendencies and posted armed guards in and around churches to protect them from nutters with knives. Inhabitants of Moslem countries, especially Pakistan, are trying to declare war on France and President MacRon's tough line on those @ the homicidal fringe of their co-religionists.

Q: Why the Rule of Six?
A: Because the Xperts thought a Rule of Ten would be okay but they just knew that the customers would abuse it and interpret it as a Rule of Fifteen. Thus the number was set at Six to create a bit of slack.

Tased with the Torch of Truth
The Xperts have shone the Torch of Truth on Warmist claims that gorbal warming will remove 50% of British sandy beaches by the end of the century and guess what? The bastards were lying.

“As 'they' is a plural pronoun, do the weirdos who insist on it use the Royal We when talking about themselves? Or are they just taking it?” Urbane Legend

Do not add up
We are told that the volume of Arctic ice has been reduced by 80% since 1979 and this will (i.e. some time in the future) cause a major rise in sea levels. Which is total bollocks.
   If the ice has been converted to seawater, any sea level rises will have happened already. Because the water from the former ice doesn't just disappear into thin air, waiting to reappear at the convenience of the Warmists.

Keen Competition
France and Germany are in a competition to see which can curb the activities of Chinese plague super-spreaders with the least restrictions. At the moment, France is losing with a more complete lockdown but Germany has no guarantee that its lighter touch will be effective.

The latest shock-horror from the medical trade is that always looking on the bright side of life gives you heart disease.
   Ergo, be a pessimist and live forever!

We’re not all gonna die: not this week, anyway
The Doom-Manglers are facing increasing competition from the Recovery Rationals, who are attempting to compel President Boris to get a grip and put the threat from the Chinese plague into its proper perspective.

Nudging toward a new norm
Criminal crime has fallen by 20% since locko was introduced but drug crime is up to keep the criminal community occupied.
   It is also a safer career choice if the nation's police farces are ignoring drugs in favour of persecuting less dangerous members of the public, such as those with a too-small slice of pizza in a pub or eatery.
[Something they're not going to be able to do come this month-long locko. Ed.]

The French are making noises about stirring their stumps and doing something about nailing the criminal people movers operating in their country. Nothing we've not heard before and we're not expecting a sudden overcrowding of the French prison system.
“The thing that sticks in the craw is the assumption by the customers that they can just turn up here, uninvited and without offering references, and expect a free ride at the expense of the British taxpayer.” Kier Mudgeon

It seems to be the way forward
Vote early, vote often is about to come true in the United States. Postal voting ahead of the presidential election is on course to boost the total number of votes cast to 103% of the legitimate electorate. Something with which the inmates of the Gremlin in Putinstan will be able to identify.
“Anyone who tells us the election has divided America should be shot at dawn. Every bloody election divides every bloody country.” Hella Nacelle

The Tate Modern art gallery is now letting a committee of rachel confecters rule on whether exhibitions can go ahead, or whether they should be cancelled to avoid upsetting the BLAME Bunch.

Bankrupt African countries have ordered the Comic Relief charity to stop sending its representatives to the Dark Continent to make charity appeals as they emphasize the failure of African regimes to do anything much to improve the living standards of their unfortunate customers.

Just swapping the problem around
Banning public firework displays, the Xperts reckon, will fill hospitals with firework idiots and their victims for sure. That's instead of new plague cases from attending a public event.
   Fire brigades are also expecting a busy time today and at the coming weekend due to back-garden displays that get out of hand.
“Ban firework sales to the public, say the Xperts. But what they plan to do about frustrating internet sales is not on offer.” Bhang Dupp

A former CPS prosecutor is spending money on trying to get Desperate Dom arrested for breach of plague regulations. But as D.D. didn't do anything likely to infect anyone else, it looks like the former is just playing politics.

No riots & arson in Austria in response to lives lost to Islamic terrorism.
Europe is too civilized?

The Law just ain’t like that
Anyone hoping for a swift inquiry into the policy of sending old people who had tested positive for the plague in a hospital off to a care home without telling anyone at the care home is sadly deluded.
   Judicial inquiries don't do swift. Ever.

One man can make a difference—if his name is Donald J. Trump. All you Yanks had to do was decide whether you wanted the difference made.

Bright idea! Bright idea!
Maybe they could combine Halloween and Xmas this year. And maybe strap on Bonfire Night as well.
“It would be a Festival of Festivals!” Mans Praeding

“Were he able to be bothered, would the recently late Sir Sean Canary really want to be remembered for his role in the film The Untouchables, even though it won him an O'scar? The TV version with Robert Stack was soooo much better.” Occasional Bling

A No-Deal Brexit will wipe out the French fishing industry and also put an end to British exports to Europe by surface travel as all ports and the Chunnel will be blockaded by out of work fisherpersons. The air cargo industry should get some welcome extra work, however.

“The Labour party is said to be having a civil war over the expulsion of O.J. Corbynstein. But when you're out and about; as much as you are permitted, these days; there's no sign of it. Which means that this is the best sort of war—invisible, not involving too many people and not affecting the rest of us.” H.T.S.

This . . . or this?
Some choice, huh?

“Interesting fact from the inquest on the Corbynski era—Neil Pillock gets the blame for Tony B. Liar, New Labour, Gordon F. Broon and The Mandelsleaze. They were a direct product of his expulsion from Labour of Dreggsy and the Liverpool Militants.” Cergei Putinovsk
“Also, Sir Kreepy spent 4 years in the Labour Shadow Cabinet whilst all the anti-Semitism was going on. Knitting his Pantz of Kontrol and doing nothing else?” Icon Fess

Not terribly innocent enjoyment
Amazon has provided its Swedish customers with a website that looks like a huge schoolboy joke. A badly written translation program has converted advertisements in English into Swedish by extracting every imaginable naughty component from English words and offering the grossest Swedish equivalent.
“No doubt everything made in Scunthorpe is very popular.” Spae Stout

Surprise! The Nigerian tanker hijackers, who gave the SBS a day out, have been given bail by the police.

“President Boris has to be really worried if that achiever Lord Farage of the Garage is going after him with an anti-locko party. Especially in the light of the success of the Farage Brexit Movement.” Frank Solstice

Trans-virus Extinction?
How bluddy cheerful—there are 85,000 viruses in animals, which could make the transition to humans as the Chinese plague did, the Xperts reckon.
   Even worse, there are 1.7 MILLION as yet unidentified and potentially lethal viruses around, according to an alarmist guestimate.

Q: What is the best way to swat a fly?
A: Hard enuff to kill it.

Salvation is at hand? Sure it is!
A New Age traveller turned ecopreneur claims he has a pollution-free method of making diamonds, which could be used to extract carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and save us from gorbal warming; the dream of Warmists everywhere.
[Or is it? Reduce the CO2 content and the Warmists would have no purpose any more. Ed.]
   One small problem, though. Reducing the atmospheric carbon dioxide content by one-half to 200 parts per million would require the production of 400 metric tons of diamonds for every 'uman bean on the planet! Assuming no further carbon dioxide is allowed to be added to the atmosphere.
   In other words, so many diamonds that their value will drop to zero, the production company won't be able to give them away, the tycoon will go bust and he will have to go back to New Age travelling.
“This process would also raise the content of oxygen in the atmosphere and make forest and urban fires that bit more spreadable.” Orange Cussedly
[Small snag: the process can create about 80 grammes of diamond per month. And not adding further CO2 to the atmosphere would mean that all mammals, 'umans included, will have to stop breathing. Ed.]

A message for the masochists who think taking a plunge into freezing cold water makes them happier & healthier
Don't let the rest of us stop you, but pardon us if we don't join in.

A knighthood should go to a guy who abandoned Britain for Monaco to avoid paying the full whack of tax on the millions he's paid for driving a racing car on only about a dozen weekends per year? What a fine example he is to the rest of us!

“Are lotz of people really worried about their mental 'elf in locko? Or do they just see it as something fashionable, especially with Royal princes, active & inactive, and say they're worried to avoid feeling left out?” Hodger Wheesht

No Escape
Police numbers are rising in response to a recruitment campaign aimed at raising cash from plague rule violation fines to top up the national coffers which our teenage Chancellor has depleted with his employment support schemes. So motorists on furlough could end up paying for themselves!

Somewhat predictable
The Balderdash Broadchasing Creeps are playing the 'our man is at death's door' card over allowing a proper investigation of the confecting that went on to set up what is now the notorious M. Bashir fake news interview with Princess Diana.
Q: When is it okay to do something crooked?
A: When it's 'a lapse' and you 'weren't thinking when you did it' and you are a BBC altar boy.

How to have a family Xmas
If more than 6 people are likely to turn up, you create a limited company for 6 quid, make all the members of your family employees on a zero hours contract and invite them to attend unpaid works events when the Festering Season comes around.
   This is the brane* wave of F. Settle of Shipley, Yorks.
[* This contributor has been reading The Complete Molesworth. Ed.]

The death of freedom of speech
The legal trade wants to include discussions in private dwellings in its hate crime agenda to boost its income from legal fees when the police haul 'he said, she said' customers into court.
   In the rosy crime-filled future, if the legal trade gets its way, saying something as harmless as 'I absolutely hate this' will become a criminal offence with the penalty of a stonking fine; or gaol time if the judge has a hangover.
“Or if someone thinks that you might possibly have said it but they're not sure?” Mauvais Coucheur
“Get the lamp posts ready?” R.W.
“Dockson of Dick Green is already complaining that time-wasting hate crime complaints are distracting the Met from not investigating serious crimes like those involving guns and knives.” L.A.

Whinge of the Week: Cultural Approximation
This is a subset of the cultural appropriation whinge. It is aimed at those who indulge in cultural appreciation, which involves adaptation of an iconic entity belonging to one culture to suit the tastes of another. Or, in the most whinged about cases, messing about with it.
   Those who approximate skilfully claim that they are involved in adeptation and their talents should be recognized. Those who just moan for the sake of it just moan for the sake of it.

Q: Which is the more serious imaginary crime, cultural appropriation or cultural approximation?
A: It depends on who wins the approximation vs appreciation debate, the one being a Bad Thing and the other being An Homage.
“And then there's the cultural adaptation lobby to consider. They argue that change is inevitable and change from a solid foundation is positively desirable.” Guy Drologist

The only positive thing that can be said for locko(?) is that it deprives Islamist terrorists of easy targets.

One day, we're being told that kids are not being fed. The next, we're assured that British kids are the fatties of Europe. Spit the bones out of that!

Gulp! His trade union supporters are getting ready to sue the Labour party for violating O.J. Corbynstein's 'uman bluddy rights by chucking him out!
   The story is that they have a £360K war chest to chuck at the legal trade which, being a member of it, is not something Sir Kreepy can disapprove of.
“The race is now on to create the most outrageous guestimate of the MILLIONs the expulsion of O.J. will cost in Labour party subscriptions withheld by pro-Corbynski trade union bosses.” Ovid Scue

Criminal gangs no longer fear the police, the former leaders who helped to dilute police credibility during the New Labour era are now admitting.
“And what? Expecting a medal?” Triff of the Davids

Today’s conspiracy theory
Big supermarkets are behind the current national locko as is has sent a surge of boggo rollo bandits and other panic buyers out to stock up on stuff which, with any luck, will reach its best-before date long before it is needed and have to be replaced, boosting supermarket profits still more.

Customers are failing to follow the 14-day self-isolation rule in such numbers that it may have to be cut to a pragmatic 10 minutes.

Panic buying of pre-locko haircuts has now been driven underground. Participants brave enough to risk the weather also seem to have the option of an open-air haircut in a park providing trimmer and trimee are both wearing a face mask.
“Or one in a playground, if they have their kids with them.” Nec Stadverts

Shock-Horror!!
The BBC is getting the blame for the Prince Chuck/Princess Di divorce, which was a direct result of the lies confected by Panorama interviewer & fantasist M Bashir for his notorious session with Princess Di. Something which has to be on the same level of heinosity as the late News of the World's phone hacking and something which commands the same level of reprisals.

Cornwall closed down with just 7 plague patients in the main hospital.

WEEK 2      The Joke is on all of us now

 
Anticipated locko consequence
The pub trade is warning that shutting them down will result in huge extra pressure on the NHS as young people turn to drugs to get wiped out if deprived of booze.
   Accidental overdoses, and also deaths due to incompetence and inexperience, are expected to soar in the coming month.

No sale
The latest scam call came from 01294 405 761 and claimed to be from 'your bank'. This one had been recorded by a human being rather than cobbled together using a bad computer speech program. But the message was the same—£600 gone to a 'foreign country fifteen minutes ago'. Unfortunately, the recipient doesn't have a VISA credit card.

“D. Trump, 'coz of his Scottish ancestry, is a friend of the UK. J. Bidet, on the other hand, is a member of the Green Beer Mafia and Fans of the IRA. Something to bear in mind as the counting goes on and on.” Vregas Chir

Enormous outrage
The Blob is in a state of on-going madness melt-down. Their Nemesis, former Education Sec. M. Gove, has ordered schools to remain open during the locko and teachers won't be getting another month off.
   Natch, Kreepy Labour is opposed to this; as it is a Tory policy; and they have to do the exact opposite of the Tories. Unless trapped into being on the same side by a sneaky Tory U-turn. Which gives them something more to whinge about.

In this week's survey, 73% of respondents agreed that the SAGE squad are the biggest gang of deluded alarmists in the known universe and President Boris is as big an idiot for believing their fantasies.
[We have been advised not to publish what the other 27% think to avoid a raft of libel actions and obscenity charges. Ed.]

Chlorinated chicken will not be allowed in to the UK, we have been assured. Only fluorinated chicken will be accepted.

Something else not allowed in to the UK is people who have caught a variant of the coronavirus plague, which has jumped to 'umans from Denmark's HUGE mink population, which will be slaughtered by the millions in an attempt to wipe out the source.

Quip of the Week
In the event of a burgalry, tell the cops there are 7 inturders on the premises to make sure Old Bill turns up promptly; if only to issue you with a fine of £10,000 for hosting an unlawful assembly.

Bloody typical self-interest bod
A legal eagle reckons that the general public could launch a class action against the government for false imprisonment of the nation during locko. Which would shove Zillions in to the pockets of the legal trade but absolutely bugger all into the pockets of the customers should they win as the government doesn't have any money. All it does is redistribute taxpayers' cash.
[And far too much of it in the direction of the legal trade. Ed.]

Q: Does calling the event where Napoleon Boney's hash was settled once and for all in 1815 the Battle of Waterloo rather than the Grand Victory of the Europeon Alliance mean that it wasn't a great British victory?

The truth will out . . .
The TV series V is getting another outing on weekday evening TV. That's the one where Earth is taken over by aliens who claim to be benefactors but who are really people-eating lizards in 'uman masks.
   Does this sound like a familiar scenario?

“One thing is for sure—with Ballless Boris in charge here and Joke Bidet in charge across the Atlantic, the Chinese world domination plan is 2 giant steps closer to becoming reality.” Steve C. Goul

“Didn't the V lizards brainwash useful 'uman stooges to maintain an illusion of continuity? That certainly explains Pres. Boris.” Vladek Kedlav
“Something that is rather obvious is that the aliens are turning 'umans into prime nosh by wiping out the old and sick, and also wiping out those who can't cope with being cooped up.

Education Corner: themes, memes, wemes
A theme is a central idea or message within a composition.
A meme is an idea or fashion which becomes a (mindless) fad and is spread by imitation; usually via the internet and antiesocial meeja. It is derived from the Greek work mimema, an imitation, by shortening it to resemble the existing word gene.
A weme is a meme spread by wonky wokes and therefore pernicious.

Bets are going down now on how long President Bidet will last. Most people give him around 6 months before he's sidelined to a retirement community at the back of beyond and VP Harris discards the puppet's strings and steps out of the shadows.

“Still no sign of consequences for the top cops who considered those lies credible & true 'coz that's how the world works—in its negative way, justicewise.” Wally Sann

Contrary to what our political leaders would have us believe, one nutter with a bomb, a gun, a knife or a vehicle CAN make a difference.

More than one born every minute
A pair of inventive conmen did a doctor in India out 7,000,000 rupees (72 grand) with a magic lamp and a fake genie; a djinn, in this case. The doctor bought the story that the lamp would convey health, wealth and good fortune.
   Surprisingly, the conmen were still around when the doctor went to the police about their scam and they are currently enjoying the state's hospitality in Uttar Pradesh whilst the police count up how many other mugs were conned.

“Is the world really holding its breath over the US presidential election? Most people elsewhere have a plague to think about and all the restrictions that go with it, necessary & gratuitous.
   “p.s. No comments from Dan Druff and/or his alias Sy Copath? How strange.” H.C.

A one-off or more to come?
RSPCA staff in Carlisle are trying to work out if someone is trying to cheer up the town's visiting seagulls by dying them bright colours. One bird with its white bits dyed an electric blue was found in a car park and the charity's welfare officers are still trying to decide whether it was done deliberately or the bird was stooopid enough to fall into a container of blue dye.

The mind boggles.
The bloke who rents a 17-acre croft in the Western Isles of Scotland for just £23/year is offering his tenancy @ an eye-watering £200K!! The plot has no dwelling and no planning permission for one. Anyone hoping to make a living from farming is unlikely to break even for around 100 years.

The Romiley Regulator reports that motorists are coping well with the plague bumps on the main road. Those in the know keep left through unoccupied on-road parking zones and avoid them. Drivers of ordinary road cars slow down and do a hip-hop over them. Wise guys in SUVs don't lift and just swan over them with barely a ripple.
“Even wiser guys check for on-coming traffic and move to the middle of the road if there is none for just a minimal bump from the plague panels.” B. Chbum

Avalanche warnings are being issued already for Scotland's highest snow-covered mountains.

The next step?
Will D.J. Trump retire to a life of golfing in Scotland when he loses interest in court cases? Maybe during the hurricane season in Florida but a bloke of his age won't want to put up with the weather in Scotland any more than he has to.

How wonky of him
President Bidet will go for diversity rather than competence when he puts 'his' people in top jobs. But given that most governments are endemically incompetent— think what Public Heath England and its counterparts did with PPE procurement and other plague issues—will anyone notice a difference?
“Let us hope he has the good manners to issue a grovelling apology for his past associations with IRA members before he asks for a state visit here.” R.F.

The Scottish government's attempt to confect hate crimes in the home is getting a good kicking from the legal trade, which reckons that anything that reaches the statute books will turn out to be unenforceable and therefore pointless.

There is a movement being established to turn old plastic carrier bags from the 20th century into museum & gallery pieces and desirable collectables rather than landfill fodder—if they are fancy enough.

The tough question
Is a self-charging hybrid really green? Not if it turns hydrocarbon fuel into electricity by what is an intrinsically wasteful process producing lots of carbon dioxide and other waste gases.
   The system's only real added efficiency is the energy recovery system, as used by F1 racing cars. It reduces brake wear by converting excess momentum into a top-up for the lithium battery—which is probably one of the most ungreen things it is possible to manufacture.

Achtung, all customers! If you still have any of these, now would be a good time to spend them or change them in to Swiss roubles.

Q: F-Bomb? MF-Bomb?
A: An F-Bomb is a finger-bomb, a.k.a. a V-sign. The MF-bomb is executed with a middle finger.

Ructions galore
Bets are being laid on how long the locko will actually last if President Boris gets mad enough with the fake data put before him to justify a month-long cessation of activities. Most of the money appears to be going on 3 weeks at the moment as two weeks is seen as just a bit too short.
   A decent amount of testing data from Liverpool, where everyone is being encouraged to get a test, symptomless or symptomful, will be definitive.

McDonuts is in deep trouble for all the cultural appropriation that is going into its Xmas menu. Jamaicans and Scots in particular are up in arms.

The pragmatic legal eagle view
Sir Kreeepy Steamer wants pub closing times to be changed from the current blanket shutdown of 10 p.m. He thinks they should be staggered. It is believed that what he was trying to say is that if the customers are not staggering, they should be allowed to carry on boozing for a bit longer.

Rejected prime monster Gordon F. Broon has astounded the world by demonstrating that he does, in fact, have two brain cells to rub together. He has realized that Gopher Joe Bidet hates Britain, he's on Ireland's side because of his family connections there and he's not interested in doing a trade deal with the UK because no one here takes him seriously. He is also likely to make Moslems compulsory.

The government is planning to let monster lorries and trailers become even bigger to cut the number of journeys they make and reduce freight costs. No one seems to have noticed that the amount of wear & tear on roads will increase and delays due to repair work and the cost of those repairs will remove anything gained.

Will America descend into a third civil war? Supporters on both sides of the presidential battle, it seems, have both guns and the will to use them.

Sir Kreepy Steamer is worried about his supporters and the Corbynski Tendency getting into a Trump/Bidet-style legal battle over who is entitled to fly the Labour flag.

Tough Choice
The election is over, the president-elect by a narrow squeak says it's time for the country to put aside its differences and come together, knowing this won't happen.
[Didn't happen with Brexit. Ed.]
   In fact, he knows full well that the losing side will do everything in its power to make life tough for him. In which case, does the pious speech make him a lying bastard or a hypocritical bastard? And does anyone care?

“What they should do in America (and elsewhere) is make a rule that if the vote in an election is about 50-50, then the incumbent should continue in office in the absence of a clear mandate for change.” A.L.

There is clearly lots of cash but not much sense sloshing around in rural Lancashire, where wonks are setting up carbon farms to control the climate (hem, hem). Like a couple of peat bogs are going to have any effect on the climate of The Planet.
“These projects tend to be all about making the place look tidier; in the view of the tidiers; and giving the tidiers something to do. They have found that the easiest way to do their beautification at other people's expense is to pretend they are saving The Planet with it.” G.B.
“Which means it's just more 'print the legend when it's better than the truth' stuff.” H.M.

He is also rumoured to be blagging everything in reach whilst legislation is rushed through the Gremlin to give him immunity from prosecution for absolutely everything imaginable and all the stuff which he has scrumped and stashed over the last 40 years.

Q: What do yesterday's men do when they are desperate to be noticed?
A: Ed 'He's Talking' Balls thinks that a whinge about a TV show he was on four years ago will do the trick.

As some compensation for the fake data lockdown which we are all enjoying, the nation's Weather Control Service has arranged for November's weather to be mild in the main and pretty dry.

Interesting theory
The standard human body temperature is 97.9 deg.F rather than the accepted 98.6 deg.F/36 deg.C. The reason for this is that the body temperature rises when a huw-mahn is fighting off a virus and we are no longer subject to the continuous infections that plagued our ancestors.

The latest silent phone call was from 01475 204 046

Change, like stuff, does happen
Bird experts are claiming that common British birds 'could' go Xtinct if the climate gets warmer. Has no one told them about evolution, adaptation to change and replacement by other species sneaking into a vacant slot in the enviromint? How very strange that their alleged expertise is so lacking.

The Spanish government is revising and extending its laws to Xtract more cash from motorists with more restrictions on where they can go, which vehicles they can use and new speed limits. The plague has emptied the Spanish coffers, too.

Rethink needed
Being put under pressure to go for a country walk to relieve stress makes some people feel even more stressed, rivals of the Xperts who advised country walks are telling us now.

Q: How do you reduce the value of a terraced house in a posh area of London from £8.5 million to zero at one foul swoop?
A: Get some cowboys in to dig a huge basement and collapse everything above it into the hole sounds like a good strategy.

Olive ranchers in Italy are in an arse-kicking contest for survival with government restrictions, which will prevent them from making a harvest if left in place.

All to play for
The competition to identify the biggest absurdities consequent of the November faked-data locko promises to be lengthy and keen.
   Not being able to play tennis with a live-in spouse, not being able to enjoy the wide open spaces of a golf course or a wildlife park, being allowed to shoot ducks but not feed them. These absurdities will seem as mere trifles compared to the eventual prize-taker.

Open, sez me
We have a guarantee that shops will be open in December for the Xmas trade because online delivery companies are at their limit and there are few delivery slots left.
   No doubt wiseguys will soon be offering their blagged slots for sale @ a suitable emolument.

The government in Denmark is facing Xtreme embarrassment after a challenge revealed that it had no legal authority to order a total massacre of minks @ fur farms to wipe out their particular strain of the coronavirus, which has made a successful transition to huw-mahns**.

Revelations compulsory
Peers are being required to reveal their secret earnings from Russia, China and other enemy sources, if only to ensure that they pay their full whack of income tax on all of their ill-gotten gains.

Business as usual
The BBC is currently shopping for large rugs, under which to brush this latest scandal about the confected fugug of Princess Diana interviewed on Panorama. Meanwhile, the legal trade is in full Kerching! mode as threats to sue Bashedear & the Beeb for libel fly in all directions.

Q: Is being 'too ill to answer questions' about past crimes consistent with not being too ill to go out to buy a takeaway and a bottle of booze?
A: If you're M. Bashedear, the Fake Sheikh of the Beeb, there's no conflict.
“Are we going to have to build another gaol for the BBC swindlers? Or would fencing off a bit of Dartmoor and parking them there for 100 years be sufficient?” T.H.
“Why aren't the police doing dawn raids on the BBC as they did to News of the Screws journalists after its phone-hacking? Or are they still getting the tickets printed for the spectators?” M.E.
“You miserable lot seem to be ignoring the fact that being a National Institution and a Member of the Establishment conveys total fireproofness to the Beeb and its bosses, past & present.” C.B.

New world, new conflicts
The head of Britain's armed services reckons the plague could cause a 3rd World War. [That's World War No. 3, just to be clear. Ed.] Managing it with safe spacing should be an interesting challenge.

Q: What do you do if President Boris makes you his vaccine tsar?
A: Blow three-quarters of a million quid of taxpayers' money on spin doctors.

Useless, rather than useful, but still idiots
The Russians have a pretty low opinion of the average auntiesocial meeja participant if they think the wonks will believe their piece of fake news to the effect that any plague vaccine other than the Russian one will turn the recipient into a chimpanzee.

Q: What's the ultimate insult to President Trump?
A: Comparing his efforts to overturn the US election result with Sir Kreepy Steamer's efforts to overturn Brexit.

Blimey! Bollocks to Berko has been gone for over a year.
And still no peerage.

Q: What turns a looney Left trade union leader into a fan of the House of Frauds?
A: Giving him a peerage.

Getting behind the news
We are invited to be shock-horrored by the news that 1 in 10 kiddies gamble with their own money. But we are too busy wondering whose money the other 90% of kids use for their gambling.

You live & learn
Non-white footballers have to be 'of colour' now rather than coloured and revealing the top-secret information that girls don't like footballs being kicked hard at them is a hanging offence in Football Association circles. As is being white and a bloke rather than BLAME and woke.
“G. Clarke, the ex-chairman of the FA, is a genuine character assassination victim. When you look at what he actually said, as compared to the dodgy interpretations made by the meeja, his demise is a prime example of confecting outrage where there is none and a confected fugug.” R.W.
“Wouldn't it be great if the Chinese plague turns out to be especially deadly to HUTAgonians?” T.M.

The BIG question of the moment is how do you train a dog to sniff out a pocket phone stashed in a prison cell?

Which drum is hard to beat? A conundrum!

Danger! Trubble Ahead!
There is a radical plan afoot to base access to university courses on the exam grades actually achieved by the potential customer rather than the over-optimistic guesses of teachers. The Blob is in a state of on-going shock in response to this challenge to its integrity.

The Price of Progress or Dream on . . .
London to Birmingham in 14 minutes in a vacuum tube Xpress train? Makes H2S look a total joke. Until you realize that building the tube would cost 170,000,000 BILLION quid!!
   Nearly as much as the cost of the Chinese plague after Chancellor Snack has finished chucking our money around.

The Price of Woke
Cambridge County Council has blown £2.3 MILLION of taxpayers' money on a Dutch design of major road roundabout, which is supposed to benefit cyclists but which has a fatal flaw that gets them killed if they're a bit unlucky.

Are humans still evolving?
Some Xperts say health care has put an end to it by making the need for change go away. Other Xperts say the stresses of coping with modern life are keeping evolution going. Par for the course, really.

What the bloody hell does Brexit have to do with Gopher Joke?

The interests of freedom of speech are presented as a reason for not making the antisocial practice of campaigning against the use of vaccines, including those developed to tackle the Chinese plague, a criminal offence.
   But the equally valued principle of the right to know applies to the identities and the agendas of those paying for anti-vaccine propaganda. Especially, where the money comes from and what the propaganda funders expect to get out of it.

The Welsh devolved government has cancelled next year's O- and A-Level exams. Why? Because it is Labour territory and The Blob can be relied upon to give all the customers a fake A grade.

They really are all talk
"Politicians should promise less and deliver more" was said about what?
   The Scottish government's failure to deliver 3 new NHS plague testing labs by October. Two of them won't be open until next year. Worse, Scottish infection rates are not dropping and the devolved government's plague stats are full of blunders. Which means that nothing is better north of the border despite Wee Burney's blah.

Baking a batch of BS takes time
Purveyors of junk foods are outraged that the government is even considering a ban on advertising junk foods on Mr. Internet. The industry is particularly bent out of shape by being given only 6 weeks to come up with some alibis rather than 6 years.

Once you've had one noon, it's always after noon.

Quick off the mark
Less than a couple of weeks after his death, the sleaze merchants are sneaking out of their bunkers to hurl bucketfuls @ Scottish icon Sean Canary. Not so much surprising as routine and predictable, these daze.

Not so much you can’t win as you’re not supposed to
MPs, the news meeja and all sorts of others are yelling that not letting relatives visit care home residents is a cruel & unusual punishment.
   But as soon as one visitor with the plague wipes out all the residents of a care home, the same tribe will be yelling from the rooftops, demanding to know why it was allowed to happen and demanding a public inquiry. Kerching!

Deft Definitions: Sanding the political process of drawing a line in it to isolate past criminal behaviour.

Something else blamed on locko
The bad behaviour of footballers; from kids to professionals; is driving referees mental and if they don't get more respect, they will become Xtinct.

Q: How do you take the nation's collective mind (well, some of it) off the plague for about 10 minutes?
A: Stage a public squabble of the meeja minions @ Downing Street.

Croydon council in London has achieved the objective of every Labour-run local authority. It has gone bust and will end up in the bankruptcy court. Reckless borrowing & spending, and speculating badly in the property market, are main causes of the collapse.

On to greater things
D.J. Trump's next move will be to begin to rake in the best part of $100 million from TV and book deals when he moves out of the White House next January.

Q: What are the hopes for a successful plague vaccine programme?
A: Not brilliant. The government's Health Dept. wonks will bog things up. The medical trade has an endemic can't-do attitude and there isn't the equipment available to keep the Pfizer vaccine @ -70 deg.C. Thus all hopes have to be on the Oxford vaccine or another one.
“And the Kreepy party will be doing its level best to slow things down for political advantage?” M.J.

Q: Is anyone surprised that China is abolishing Hong Kong's "one country, two systems" exceptions?
A: The only surprise is that it has taken the gang in Peking so long to clamp down on dissenters and their delusions of democracy.

What is The Donald up to?
He is showing the former president O'bummer how it's done. His predecessor needed two lacklustre terms in the White House to raise his profile high enuff to persuade mugs to hurl cash at him when he left office.
   Mr. Trump has been one of the best presidents the world has ever seen, there are now no worthwhile challenges for him in politics, and it is time for him to move on to the next challenge, secure in the knowledge that he is worth; in present and future terms; more than all previous US presidents put together.

A: The good old American Xpression pussy-whipped springs to mind.

Swings & Arrows
Yes, it's perfectly reasonable to refuse people who refuse the plague vaccine the right to travel around the country and abroad. And it also opens up new lines of business for the creaters of fake documents, including 'I've had the jab' certificates.

Hate Crime? They can’t run away from it fast enuff!
The Little John Proposition is gaining ground everywhere. The Proposition is that the nation's police farces have given up on crime.
   In order to justify their existence, and salaries & perks, the police have reinvented themselves as a KGB/Stasi clone, which concentrates on persecuting the non-criminal population because they are less stroppy, more easily intimidated and more likely to cough up fines for imaginary offences, which are not included in the Statute Books.

Five days of controlled unlocko from December 24th to December 28th = 25 days of tighter locko from December 29th to midnight on January 22nd, 2021. And that's just for starters. There are a number of Xperts who would like to see the tighter locko clamped down until next year's Xmas Eve.

OUR money is paying their wages
The government account on Twatter is telling us to open windows to let in fresh air. To which we can only respond: "It's bloody November, it's bloody cold outside, all the warmth in our house has leaked out through the open bloody windows and we're all frozen to bloody death. What other bright bloody ideas do you have on offer?"

You have to wonder what sort of homes they come from if kids who aren't going to school have forgotten how to use a knife & fork and they're back in nappies, and it's all being blamed on locko.

Applied cosmetic
A police criminal probe has been launched into the activities of The Post Office's IT Xperts, which led to false accusations of theft, imprisonments and the blighting of the lives of hundreds of postmasters @ sub-post offices.
   No arrests, no prosecutions and no compensation for victims is the expected outcome.

Austria expects its mass testing plan to end the plague locko there in time for Xmas. Italy, meanwhile, has gone for colours rather than digits for its tiers. There are red, orange and yellow zones. Significantly, the government didn't think green would be needed.

The French government has come up with a security bill, which will make collecting video evidence of police officers who are behaving badly (or criminally) into a criminal offence if it allows the officers to be identified.

[** Dog Of The Prime Minister's Girlfriend. Ed.]
The next target for the Carrie Crew is heavily rumoured to be the teenage Chancellor because he refuses to let them meddle in Treasury business.

Q: Why did P-E Joke Bidet phone President Boris first among Europeon leaders?
A: Conventional wisdom is that he wanted to get the enemy out of the way before he got chummy with friends.

Sir Kreepy Steamer is refusing to admit O.J. Corbynstein to his Masochism Parlour for a good whipping following O.J.'s reinstatement as a member of the Labour party. O.J. is not allowed to be a Labour MP and has to sit in the area for odds & sods when he bothers to go to the House of Commons.

Panic mongers in the United States have confected a fake news item about President Trump starting a nuclear war with Iran while he still has the chance to prevent Joke Bidet from helping Iran with its nuclear ambitions.

If you want Xmas, the Xperts are telling us, locko will have to last until Xmas Eve and it will be clamped down even harder on December 28th.
   So anyone hoping to do some Hogmanizing to bring in the new year will be out of luck.
“No doubt Wee Burney Sturgeon will go cooking frackers in all directions about that!” R.T.B.

Take your pick
Smoking helps people to resist the Chinese plague, Xperts reckon. Smoking helps people to get the Chinese plague, Xperts reckon.

Around 70% of the plague rule violation fines remain unpaid. The government is reported to be considering making them 4x greater in the hope of turning a profit.

What is the weirdest thing the Xperts reckon they can do?
Hacking a robot vacuum cleaner with no built-in microphone to eavesdrop on conversations around it has to be right up there. The trick is to extract speech from reflections of the laser ranging system used to help the cleaner to avoid obstacles.

The Swiss government has decided to raise some cash by letting the police slap a fine on anyone who isn't wearing a plague mask.

Plague inflicted crisis
Berlin is on the verge of declaring a water shortage because the police are using so much of it to drown protesters moaning about plague regulations. The city will be in real trouble if the Mherkel government follows the French lead and makes vaccination against the plague compulsory.

WEEK 4

 
A far from rosy future on wheels
President Boris' Green Garbage will create a £40 BILLION Brown Hole in the tax budget due to his plan to electrify motoring.
   Taxes raised from motorists will have to shoot up and the worry for the Treasury is that as the number of people able to afford a ruinously expensive car dwindles, the road repair budget will collapse, as will roads from neglect, and the motoring lobby will be after the blood of both Boris; or his successor; and other members of the Cabinet.

“Why should D.J. Trump provide all the evidence to go with his declaration of voting fraud? He's the President of the Free World, for Ghod's sake! Investigations is supposed to be the job of the Federal Bureau of Instigation.” Sooger Spiel

The Spanish government's attempts to do something about fake news have triggered showers of complaints from the news meeja and "freedom of speech no matter how BS" campaigners.

Buy stuff on Mr. Internet and you have a 50% chance of a problem with the delivery. The firms responsible are working hard to raise that number even higher.

Ostrichism rulz
If you think TV is crap these days and you'd rather watch repeats of Inspector Morse and the various Star Treks, blame the wonkist & cancel cults. The BBC and Channel 4 are terrified of them and dare not put out programmes which are funny or a little intellectually challenging for fear of being trolled by cultists.

Q: Why would people go to a vegan 'butcher' to buy veggie imitations of meat products which don't cook like the meat products they're supposed to copy?
A: Because there are lots of masochistic wonks with lotz of cash around.

Wonky number proliferation
Died with the plague and died of the plague is such a grey area that one set of bean-counters reckons that 10,000 more people 'could have' died of the plague in care homes than previously thought.
    Which brings the 'could have' death toll from the plague to 60,000. No doubt a bit more invention will get it to the magic 100,000 in due course.

Terminology Explained
"I created it using my own intellectual creativity" means that the person concerned had help from others in drafting a document before writing out a fair copy of the final assisted draft by hand. Which smears out any copyright issues relating to the whole document.

Britain's roads will still be dominated by petrol & diesel powered vehicles after 2030 because local councils do not have a budget for creating charging points for electric vehicles. And non-motorists are not keen to pay for them via increased Council Tax.
“It would take about 3 days to drive from Romiley to the south coast of England, or southern Scotland, given the number of 7½ hour charging periods needed for an electric car of limited range. As opposed to just a few minutes for filling the tank of a petrol or diesel car with a much greater range. Who's going to want to be saddled with that?” R.W.
“Which brings us back to the question of where all the electricity comes from. And building electric cars is far from green; positively dirty compared with proper cars; extremely very more expensive and polluting.” C.R.

Confected Fugug
“President Boris, if you look at what he actually said about devolution, took a pop at the SNP for bogging it up. Removing that part of the content is just rank dishonesty. Surprise!
   “In fact, it's as dishonest as quoting the statement 'I do not support a death penalty' with the 'not' removed.” A.L.

Makeover required
The BLAME Bunch are going to have to think up a new label as the one they have has been labelled as useless for describing ethnic minorities as it lumps together too many groups of people with little in common. Its use makes as much sense as dividing life on Earth into just two categories—1. fish & 2. everything else.

Not just one
Plymouth city council is in trouble for ray-cism! Which is what renaming a square celebrating a 16th century merchant and benefactor who did some slave-trading in favour of a footballer amounts to. 'Coz the footballer's qualification is being of African heritage.

Drug dealers are to be required to put strength ratings on their products so that pot-heads can observe official weekly guidelines similar to those issued for alcohol consumption

The last batch of 24,000 mines & shells abandoned on the Falkland Islands by the Argies when they were evicted in 1982 has been exploded. The islanders can now visit their beaches safely again. Whether they remember what to do on them remains to be seen.

Maybe they are hoping he will make a film of the trial
An Islamist terrorist tried to crash an Amsterdam to Paris express train and kill everyone aboard in 2015. Four Americans, two of them service personnel, neutralized him. Clint Eastwood made a film about it.
   Five years on, the French have finally got round to putting the terrorist and 3 accomplices on trial and they have actually been debating whether Mr. Eastwood, 90, who wasn't on the train, needs to give evidence @ the trial. The mind boggles.

Marriage is on course to become Xtinct before new cars have to be electric, figures on divorce rates from the Office of National Sadistics suggest. Natch, locko is getting the blame.

What the National Audit Office should be asking is whether the firms that got PPE supply contracts when the plague outbreak began delivered quality and value for money. If they did, who the bosses knew in and around the government becomes irrelevant. And moaning about it becomes confection.

New rulz of engagement
Future wars will have to be waged in space, military leaders on all sides are concluding, because the Chinese plague is making conflict between soldiers on The Planet too costly and too messy.

The proper description for a vegan 'butcher' who offers veggie fakes of meat products, according to D.S. of Doncaster, has to be 'greengrocer'.
[Anything else invites a visit by Trading Standards? Ed.]

Unreliable source
"Christmas is back on", sez Public Health England, the dodgy quango which is about to be demolished and replaced by something equally dodgy. What if the demolition takes place before Xmas, though? Is that the guarantee gone for a Burton, too?

“That's a rather strange choice for the person in charge of the Bashir inquiry @ the BBC. The sometime Master of the Rolls. What does a former chauffeur of a posh car know about it?” D.L.
“How do you know he was the driver? He might have been the head mechanic, and car mechanics reckon they know everything about everything.” O.J.
“It's probably one of the few times when the 'gate' tag is justified as the BBC's coverup of Bashirgate, like the Nixon cover up of the Watergate hotel burglary, is the main story now.” N.R.
“I hope Lord Dyson isn't going to be neglecting his vacuum cleaner manufacturing business.” E.M.

Q: Is BashedEar now the Prince Andrew of the BBC?
A: Not really. He seems to have been the instigator rather than just an onlooker. But maybe the embarrassment factors for those around him are equivalent.
“Those around BashedEar who weren't involved in the fun & games? Because the ones that were up to their necks in it seem totally shameless.” E.F.

Irresistible force
You can live with climate change. You can adapt to it. You can also ignore it. You can even enjoy it. But beware of anyone who tells you they're fighting it, tackling it or even able to control it. Because that person is either a fraudster or a dangerous lunatic.

Q: "It would be inappropriate to comment further" Translation?
A: "We have a lot to hide, stop asking awkward questions"

VW Mk II
Motor manufacturer Mercedes is in a major arse-kicking contest with the ambulance chasing tendency over claims arising from owners of diesel engine vehicles which had software designed to cheat on emissions readings during official tests.

Oh, wonderful. We're in for the coldest winter for about 20 years, the Xperts reckon.

The Daily Mail has the hump because the government has dared to use Twatter to publish counterblasts to its alarmism over the plague.
“Maybe someone should remind the Mail there's nothing new about chumocracy. It was institutional, if not compulsory, under New Labour.” G.B.
“Is it newsworthy that someone who used to know Princess Di puts his bins out while wearing a T-shirt & tracksuit bottoms? The Mail seems to think so.” D.D.

The 400th anniversary of the arrival of the good ship Mayflower @ what is now Plymouth, Mass., with its cargo of rejected (by us) Puritan Pilgrims, has been ignored in the Untied States because its history is now has to be all about slavery, Thanksgiving to be cancelled next?

Isolated ex-president Boris has abandoned written communications with his minions in favour of electronic messages. Which lets real President Cooking Carrie do the policy-making job for him. The only problem with that is her writing style is organized and totally unlike the scrappy, disorganized Boris draft style. And she's been rumbled.

Q: How do towns in Wales make a fast buck?
A: Declare a street 'disabled parking only' overnight and without notice, and slap parking tickets on everything parked there the next day.

Ex-royal discretion
Prince Hairy felt obliged to frogmarch his stuff out of Frogmore Cottage in the dead of a black night; after repaying the taxpayer for the refurb; to avoid being frogfangled by the hounds of Her Majesty's Press.

£5,577,988,036.64

“Leaving lights on to avoid sleeping in the dark is also reputed to be slaying the planet.” F.B.

Good News: Mistletoe will not be banned during the Festering Season.
Less Good News: There will be a 2-metre Xclusion zone around every sprig of mistletoe. Marshals will be standing by to issue a £70 fixed penalty ticket to anyone who violates the zone.

Speculation Corner: O.J. Corbynstein could be reinstated as a Labour MP within 3 months and restored to the party leadership within 6 months.

Q: Do we want to read I-rak O'bama's Big Book of Alibis?
A: Nope.

The Unite union's sneers at the Chancellor's pay curbs for the non-NHS public sector have been described as an insult to the taxpaying public.

The fine for not wearing a plague mask has been capped @ 300 francs in Switzerland. But there is a catch. If the fine is not paid within 30 days, a public prosecutor will start slapping legal fees on top of the fine and push it into the thousands.

Q: Why is it called propaganda?
A: If you take a proper gander @ what they're NOT telling you, you realize what absolute garbage what they ARE telling you is.

Despite the plague, archaeologists are still digging up human relics from the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, which wiped out Pompeii and Herculaneum and a lot of the people living there in 79 AD.

Boris Bollocks
Our warships are going to be kitted out with 'inexhaustible' laser weapons in the golden future and the phrase 'out of ammo' will become obsolete.
   Small but vital point—where will all the power to light up the lasers come from? What is their 'inexhaustible' power source? Magic Money Tree territory, folks.
“Thinking militarily; have the customers in Scotland realized that independence from the UK will lead to the scrapping of their iconic Black Watch regiment? Because an economy bungled by the SNP, with no sub from English taxpayers, won't be able to afford it.” R.T.B.
“The Black Watch is doomed anyway if Sir Kreepy gets his Pantz of Kontrol into Downing Street. He'll spend the defence budget on green bollocks and sell all our military hardware to tinpot lefty dictators.” K.H.

In France, going to smash someone's face in will win you a fine for breaking locko regulations. Especially if you are daft enough to put that on the form, which has to be submitted online as an excuse for being out of your residence.

Danish mink farmers are staging Yellow Vest Pest style demos by the hundred in their biggest tractors in protest against the Xtinction of their businesses. The Danish PM has admitted that there is no legal basis for ordering the mass cull to prevent the spread of a new variant of the Chinese plague. Even so, the cull remains non-negotiable.
“What we're now asking ourselves is why, oh why, do mink ranchers need a huge tractor? Maybe it's some sort of status thing.” S.L.

“Of course, they could make it Buy-Buy Friday, which is what it is in practice, and eliminate the black problem entirely. But that's probably too sensible.” A.T.

WWW—Working for a Warmer World
A really well kept secret is that what most people who claim they're reducing their carbon footprint don't realize is that the fancy gadgets and dodges bought from spivs actually increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere via their manufacture & implementation.
   But WWW members are not bothered. Warmer is better, they cry!

China is turning its plague epicentre in Wuhan into the equivalent of Barnard Castle for tourists. Notoriety Rulz, OK!

Not safe in the real world
Assuming that a TV drama has any connection with reality if characters have the same name as members of the Royal family & top politicians could soon be made grounds for protective self-isolation under the Mental Health Act.

O.J. Corbynstein's allies are contemplating a Labour leadership challenge if Sir Kreepy doesn't retreat into his box and let their hero be lashed back to the Labour benches in the Commons. Should make life a bit interesting for Sir Kreepy and lengthen his normally gloomy face even more.

It’s only taxpayers’ money
The British Library is trawling through the family history of British writers who made a name for themself, e.g. the late poet laureate Ted Hughes, to uncover ancestors who had something to do with the slave trade—no matter how distant the ancestor and how tenuous the connection.
   This is in connection with the current wonk campaign to make everything about slavery.
The British Library has received a good kicking for its attempts to sleaze the good name of Mr. Hughes with its confections.

Q: Will sending a bloke with an IQ of 58 to gaol teach him not to send emails to politicians threatening to kill them?
A: Not unless it's a whole life sentence and he's not allowed to have the internet in his cell.

Daily Mail 1, Dept. of Health 0
The war on Twatter over dishonest plague statistics and guesses has become a rout for the nation's fave daily newspaper with Dept. of Health wonks forced to delete complaints containing no counter evidence and admit they were just whinges.
A government mouthpiece is reported to have explained: "The projections from the DoH were based on what could have happened and did not necessarily have any actual connection with the real world."

Denmark is having to put up with a plague of zombie mink as exterminated and buried animals rot underground and decomposition gases explode, sending the carcases flying back in to the upper world!

Different story, same object
Here in Britain, we get fake phone calls from scammers pretending to be BT, Amazon, etc. In Denmark, the current fashion is for the scammer to pretend to be a cop engaged in investigating suspicious transactions and requiring the mug's bank account details. The calls appear to originate from a genuine number for the Central and West Zealand police as an added convincer.

Who exactly is dead? Football cheat Maradona or Peter Pan popster Madonna? Depends which country's headlines you read.

Recordbuster
The Chinese plague economic slump and its aftermath are expected to be on course to eclipse the Brown Slump of 2008 and its aftermath, the teenage Chancellor has warned.
   The entire Labour party is up in arms at this threat to the place in the record books of their best ever attempt to destroy the British economy.

September 26th next year is Bullet Day for Kanzler Angular Mherkel of Germany. There will be a general election then to pick a successor and she'll be off into the sunset to her retirement home.

In London, motorists and wonk councils which are trying to turn roads into cycle-only affairs are in a state of war. As fast as traffic cameras and bike-friendly but vehicle unfriendly road blocks are put in place, gangs of disgruntled motorists are cancelling them in the dead of night.

Ex-President O'Bummer is currently making such a nuisance of himself with his constant bids for attention that incoming US President Joke Bidet is having to declare that his brief reign will not become a 3rd, and illegal, O'Bummer term.
“Sleepy Joe can screw things up his own way, thank you very much, seems to be the new guy's message.” W.C.
“He also seems to be planning to send troops to Ireland if the government of the Irish Republic puts guard posts on the border with Northern Ireland post Brexit and restricts the free flow of IRA terrorists and their smuggling operations.” G.M.

Hall of Shame
What will President Boris be known as when he shuffles off stage-left to his ultimate reward? The Moron of Malinvestment is the current fave, based on his passion for H2S, Green Bollocks and other 'waste as much cash as possible' projects.
“Everyone runs for cover when Boris claims something else is 'world-beating'. If D.J. Trump doesn't have anything better to do at the moment, maybe he'd volunteer to be our president.” D.P.

People who fulminate have gone bang @ ISIRTA star J. Cleese revealing that he identifies as a Cambodian police woman.

WEEK 5

 
Tiers of Rage & other tired clichés
No matter what the government announced for the period between the end of the current locko and Xmas, there were always going to be loud howls of confected anguish from everywhere that wasn't in Tier 1. The plague seems to have pushed the National Whinge Button big time.
   It's also a great time to be a Tory rebel. They can yell their heads off and vote against the government over the plague tier their constituency has been stuck with, knowing that Sir Kreepy & Labour have just the choice of Backing Boris when it comes to a vote if their alternative is to lose all credibility.

The Spanish-owned airline British Airways has upset Captain Underpants by favouring the England rugby team over his Welsh side.

The nation's teenage Chancellor is refusing to say how he'll fill in the enormous Brown Hole, which he and ex-President Boris have dug in the British economy. Maybe he's hoping that President de facto Cooking Carrie will come up with some ideas.
“One thing is for certain, he can't expect a wealth-creating private sector at a standstill further to advantage the public sector. In fact, if he doesn't do some trimming there, he will be history.” G.B.

Attention all those who are worried about being force-fed halogenated chicken by an evil regime
Go on a green Mediterranean diet and eat nuts & beenz instead of animal protein.
   Not only will you be able to thwart the evil & oppressive regime, you will also live forever, some Xperts reckon.
“Shame about all the broken brittle bones, though.” R.W.

Just a few days ago, we were being told that the Oxford plague vaccine would make locko a thing of the past and restore life to what passes for normal. How very quickly the puff & optimism faded!

You can tell he has a book to plug
We are told by a writer that the Tories will pay a heavy electoral price if they don't stop BILLIONs of pounds of taxpayers' cash from being wasted by government departments. Which assumes there is a better alternative which will tackle the abuses, which is total bollocks.
   Labour won't stop it. In fact. another Labour government will encourage even more of it to buy friends among the ranks of the nation's enemies. Because that's what sort of people they are.

A: Probably. It worked last time, 10 years ago.

Vegans are not healthier than carnivores, the Xperts reckon. In fact, the reverse can be true so they will die out first.

Q: Does foreign aid really help Africa, as Dave the ex-Leader and those trying to buy friends there would have us believe?

Brain Booster
The latest from the foodie Xperts is advice to drink something with a high flavanol content before tackling a complicated task. Drinks made from apples & blackberries, cocoa, green tea and red wines all qualify. Although, too good a go at the red wine can undo the flavanol effect.

Not news
Why is it that the BBC expects us to be impressed by edges? Everyone knows that county borders go through villages, sometimes cutting them in half and putting the two sides of the main street in different counties or doing it to the two ends of the main street.
   As a result, if there are tiers, there are always going to be adjacent premises in different ones. And the BBC expecting us to be amazed when they point it out in an alleged news programme just won't wash.

A: If someone is behaving arrestably, age does not come in to it. Even if an excitable Tory MP is watching and looking for an opportunity to become a Person Who Fulminates.

Something the Russians are not telling us is that if the Oxford plague vaccine turns recipients into chimpanzees, as the Russian Dept. of Fake News would have us believe, so will the Splutnik jabs confected in Putinstan 'coz they were built using the same approach.

“Invading Britain to put us forcibly back in the EbloodyU under an IRA puppet regime seems to be alarmingly high up on Joke's agenda.” D.K.

When fault becomes falut
Freedom of Information surveys by the Daily Mail have shown that it is not just government departments that are wasting HUGE amounts of taxpayers' money on follies and junkets.
   The same splurge-o-mania tendency applies to the BBC and local councils, especially the Labour controlled ones which scream loudest for more cash to splurge.

Below the line mission statement: Some of the above is true.
   We are constantly exposed to dodgy conclusions drawn from dodgy data by the 'experts', especially those found in the world of politics and especially those at the Treasury and in opposition. Some of us civilians at BFN like to join in to let them know that anyone can do it and we ain't impressed by their efforts.
