Government proposals to bar anybody who doesn’t speak fluent English from public sector roles have resulted in all Geordies being put at risk of redundancy.

The entire staff of Newcastle General Hospital were given notice after Cabinet minister Matt Hancock visited last week and was left staring blankly at everybody who spoke to him.

“Ah divvin’ knar what the problem is.” said Gemma Black, an A&E Nurse who is now faced with finding a new job. “We’re nee ganna just gan yem without a geet walla fight though.”
It is believed that the new rules could cause a similar problem in Liverpool. A scouser was asked to comment on the proposals but nobody understood a word he said either.
