Lord Haw-Haw to be the exciting new face of GB News

Thu, 07/01/2021 - 9:55pm

Legendary wartime broadcaster Lord Haw-Haw has been recruited as a presenter on GB News in a bid to bolster its flagging ratings.

‘I am sure everyone will enjoy a nightly hate-filled ramble presented by a pseudo-aristocratic drunkard,’ said chairman of GB News, Andrew Neil.

‘Lord Haw-Haw will broadcast his rants from a dark cellar in Hamburg on a barely audible, short-wave radio frequency. In that respect, it will be quite similar to the show I put on in that sinister, black-walled bunker which I use as a studio.’

GB News has released a pilot episode of the show that they plan to call ‘Lord Haw-Haw’s Hoo-Hah’.

‘The people of England will curse themselves for having preferred ruin under Boris Johnson to peace under Ursula von der Leyen,” Haw-Haw slurs. “There is only one solution. Submit to the will of your masters in Berlin!’

Said Andrew Neil: ‘Our regular viewers – Sid and Ethel Barking from Penge – might think Lord Haw-Haw is a bit too much of a europhile, given that he bangs on so much about the unification of the continent under an Aryan super race. But I think they will warm to his moderate conservative views about the need to imprison deviants and make the trains run on time.’

The traitor Lord Haw-Haw, whose real name is William Joyce, was arrested by British military authorities on the German-Danish border in 1945 and brought back to the UK. Since then, he has been making a steady living by ghost-writing opinion columns for the Daily Mail and the Daily Telegraph.

Rumsfeld ‘Doublespeak’ death mystery

Thu, 07/01/2021 - 6:00am

Conspiracy theorists are mystified as to the cause of the demise of US diplomat Donald Rumsfeld. They are demanding to know if he died of something we do know about, or do not know about. Or was it that he didn’t die of something we do know about or something that we do not know about?

One leading theorist commented: ‘There are things we know we know. But we also know there are known unknowns. So for all that I know, then who knows?’

Man has nervous breakdown trying to open liquid hand wash

Thu, 07/01/2021 - 3:00am

A man has been caught in a serious altercation with a liquid hand wash after repeatedly trying to turn the pump action cap to no avail. Mike, 42, spent three days solid attempting to twist the lid in the right direction. He reportedly pummeled the hand wash to ‘within an inch of its life’ before eventually collapsing in a heap on the bathroom floor having suffered a mental breakdown.

Mike is now being cared for in a secure facility. His partner, Kate, saw this coming for a long time: ‘If it hadn’t been the hand wash, it would have been the child-proof cap on the mouthwash or the allegedly ‘resealable’ pasta bags. Mike was constantly plagued by his inability to work basic packaging. He did his best, but unfortunately he suffered terribly with clumsy sausage fingers so it was only a matter of time before it pushed him over the edge.

The worst part is that he didn’t realise the hand wash was actually one of those refillable tubs so it didn’t have a pump action at all. He was trying to achieve the impossible. What an awful waste – it was the expensive stuff too’.

Jeremy Kyle fails to sort out Henry VIII’s love life

Thu, 07/01/2021 - 1:00am

TV host Jeremy Kyle has admitted defeat in his bold attempt to distract Tudor monarch Henry VIII from his bid to divorce his middle-aged wife and overthrow the authority of the Papacy. The episode, entitled ‘You Had Sex With My Dead Brother, You Slag, Now God Won’t Give Me Any Sons’, is due to be aired next Wednesday.

Spanish-born Cath had contacted the show, complaining that Henry had left her for a much younger strumpet after nearly 20 years of marriage, because she had originally married his older brother Arthur, who died a few weeks later. Henry had thought this had caused their marriage to be cursed by the Almighty.

‘He finks I shagged Arthur to death but he never touched me,’ Cath told the show. ‘I’m like, 100% I’ll pass the lie detector. And if you ain’t married to me proper, why do you still come in stately procession to my chamber at least once a month? It’s cos that flat-chested [BLEEP] you’ve been after since 1526 ain’t giving you any, innit?’

Confronted by a hostile Kyle, Henry was immediately on the defensive. ‘My mate Wolsey who was a cardinal said that verse in Leviticus – shut the [BLEEP] up – means you can’t have sons if you marry your dead brother’s wife. You can [BLEEP] ask him. Well you can’t, cos he died on the way back from York to get beheaded for cocking the annulment up but he, like, totally said that,’ the enraged king told the studio audience.

Jeers and calls of ‘Whore!’ erupted as Henry’s new girlfriend Anne strutted onto the stage, flashing her French learning at Cath, who had to be restrained from punching her in the stomacher. After a few summary floggings, order was restored and Kyle revealed that the lie detector test proved Cath to be telling the truth. However, Henry defiantly said that his new mates Cromwell and Cranmer were going to sort it and those [BLEEP] Fisher and More had better not piss him off any worse or the monasteries would totally get done.

‘Sometimes I can’t make people do the right thing,’ Kyle concluded. ‘You go that way,’ he told the sobbing Cath, ‘and our team will help you find a nice nunnery. You two go the other way and Anne, love, don’t lose your head over him, he’s not worth it. Next up, it’s Robert from Leicester, who will ask Liz why she won’t marry him now he’s had his first wife killed by throwing her down the stairs.’

Chaos and confusion as Matt Hancock attends cabinet meeting

Wed, 06/30/2021 - 9:55pm

In a leaked transcript of the latest Tory Cabinet meeting, it appears chaos and confusion ensued when ministers found Matt Hancock already seated at the table, despite him resigning last week

‘Hi guys,’ he said to his dumbfounded former colleagues. ‘God, it’s great to be back. That break was just what I needed, but here I am refreshed and ready to tackle this ruddy pandemic, if you’ll pardon my French!’

Silence fell on the room, as Mr Hancock continued to grin and look desperately at the Prime Minister.

It was Michael Gove who broke the silence, saying: ‘But, Matt, you resigned as a minister, you resigned from the Cabinet.’

‘Oh, that! Well, it’s been a fair few days now, surely that whole affair has blown over now, no pun intended,” Mr Hancock said. “I mean it’s not as though you had to sack me, not really. And Boris, you said in your letter that my contribution to public service was far from over.’

The entire Cabinet turned to Boris Johnson. ‘Well? What do you think big man? Rishi Sunak asked.

Mr Johnson responded by saying: ‘Oh, err, crikey,’ before going on to repeat a number of comments about the vaccine rollout and Latin phrases.

Sajid Javid reportedly lost his cool at this point. ‘Oh for god’s sake! I had to wait over a year to come back to the front bench,’ he shouted. ‘Are you seriously thinking of letting this moron back in after just a week? I resigned on principle, he resigned as he had become a bloody laughing stock.’

‘Steady on Saj, no hard feelings,’ said Hancock.

What Mr Javid said in reply has not been redacted but led to him being physically restrained by Dominic Raab. ‘Leave it, he’s not worth it Saj,’ Mr Raab said, as at the same time Gavin Williamson and Robert Jendrick stood in front of Hancock and told Javid ‘he would have to come through us first.’ The rest of the Cabinet took sides and began squaring off and shouting at each other.

‘Enough, Priti Patel said very quietly, and despite the shouting she was immediately heard. All members of the Cabinet instantly froze.

Mrs Patel led Mr Hancock into the corner and whispered some unknown words into his ear whilst making a few hand gestures. ‘Am I understood?’ she asked at the end, and a terrified Mr Hancock nodded quickly before collecting his things and scurrying out of the room.

The meeting then resumed and took its normal self-congratulatory course.

Mr Hancock’s current whereabouts are unknown.

‘The history of the teaspoon’ and other thrilling radio 4 documentaries

Wed, 06/30/2021 - 6:00am

Radio 4 has aired a series of absolutely thrilling documentaries covering a range of hard hitting topics. The station is hoping to appeal to younger listeners with the release of these ‘hip-to-the-groove’ programmes rather than their usual demographic of boring, old, posh people. Here are our favourites:

1. The History Of The Teaspoon – from conception to cup in 53 episodes

2. Cravat Etiquette – when to cravat and when not to cravat

3. The Archers ‘unleashed’ : Kate and Alice get dirty on the farm whilst cleaning out the cow shed

4. Jigsaw Puzzles – the best, the worst and the just-about-acceptable

5. Agricultural Trends of 2021 – pimp my tractor special

6. The UK Drill Scene – getting groovy with DIY

7. Rural Stenches – classic smells of the countryside identified for listeners

8. Masterwave – tense competition as contestants prepare microwavable ready meals against the clock for vindictive judges Anne Robinson and Nick Hewer.

9. How to talk to the servants by Jacob Rees-Mogg.

A spokesperson for Radio 4 said: ‘We are fully committed engaging youngsters because a lot of our current listenership are dying of old age which isn’t great for ratings. We even had an under 60 tune in the other day, so it shows how well our new strategy of ‘getting down with the kids’ is working.’
