Blair claims Corbyn could destroy Labour in 45 minutes

"Would these hands lie to you?"

“Would these hands lie to you?”

Tony Blair warns that leadership contender Jeremy Corbyn has a huge arsenal of principles of mass destruction, and these could quickly be deployed to reduce the Labour Party to an organisation that listens to its members.

“People don’t realise how dangerous principles are in the wrong hands” explained foreign dictator consultant Blair. “Jeremy Corbyn could use them to make Labour unrecognisable inside an hour of becoming leader.”

Thatcher about to enter a miner’s hole

An investigation into Margaret Thatcher allegedly abusing over 150,000 miners has stalled after Police failed to find any trace of a mining industry let alone any miners.

“Most of the abuse was alleged to have occurred up North but no matter how many holes in the ground we peered into, or broken communities we visited, no miners could be found” said a Scotland Yard spokesman.

“We now suspect Thatcher may have hid them on a very large yacht.”

Nigel Farage suggests giant moat around Britain to thwart migrants

An artist’s impression of the UKIP moat

UKIP leader Nigel Farage today suggested the building of a giant moat around Britain to stop migrants entering the UK.

“If we make the moat at least 20 miles wide and pretty deep, and throw in a few sharks and pollutants in the water for good measure, I think you’ll find the migrant problem is solved” beamed Farage.

Farage said the moat needed to be all the way round Britain to thwart those trying to enter from Ireland and Norway, as well as from France. Farage noted it probably wasn’t necessary to have a moat between England and Scotland, but if the Scots continued being uppity, he’d consider a wall.

A resident of Harold has told how he visited the bathroom, after being compelled to urinate by a ‘call from God’.

An online fundraising campaign raised over $100,000 to send a pride of Zimbabwean lions to Minnesota to hunt US dentist Walter Palmer.

"Trees, I see lots and lots of trees"

“Trees, I see lots and lots of trees”

The eBay seller crackdown is expected to be followed by an HMRC campaign to tax beggars collecting money in Starbucks cups.

NRA says mass shooter shooting himself shows how guns save lives

Wayne still waiting to hear back from Mensa

The National Rifle Association say if it wasn’t for today’s US cinema shooter having a gun to shoot himself with, many more lives would have been at risk.

“Imagine if he went into that cinema armed with just a baseball bat, he would have found it almost impossible to bash himself to death” reasoned NRA spokesman Wayne Einstein.

Chimney sweep accused of cynically exploiting ‘Bring a Kid to Work’ day

Chimney SweepsA local Harold chimney sweep says it was purely a coincidence he was hosting a class of 9 year olds for ‘Bring a Kid to Work’ day on the same day he had a number of extremely narrow chimneys to clean.

“People can believe what they want, but the truth is I had completely forgotten I was due to clean the exceptionally narrow chimneys on the terraced row on Gluggle Street” said Little Scamps owner Ernie Evans. “After all, those Gluggle chimneys were last cleaned in 2012 when I hosted room 4 for the 100th anniversary of Charles Dickens’ death, so it’s not surprising it slipped my mind.”

Osborne says lazy poor should eat their own babies

junior lobsterUK Chancellor George Osborne says it is about time lazy poor people ate their own babies, rather than relying on Tories to do it for them.

“For far too long, hard-working Tories have had to shoulder the baby-eating responsibilities” said Osborne as he feasted on a Bolton toddler’s succulent thigh.

Terry keeps mum

Despite reports, John Terry has made no comment whatsoever.

Evening Harold reporters have been camped outside John Terry’s London house for two days, waiting to get former England captain John Terry’s reaction to events. None has so far been forthcoming.

The lack of any sort of response, even just a blunt denial, has inevitably led to speculation that there is something to hide.

Father’s Day blowjob request was ‘ironic’, claims man

Man Getting Drunk at PubA Harold man who requested ‘breakfast in bed, a box of chocolates, and a blowjob’ for Father’s Day says he was just being ironic, and he was perfectly happy with his haul of two slices of toast and a box of Roses chocolates.

“To be honest, I was rapt to even get two of the three” said insurance assessor and father of three Alan Atkins. “I’d have been just as happy, but definitely no more happy, to say get the chocolates and a blowjob.”

Obama announces USA to become a people-free gun reserve

"I'm banning people, starting with the NRA"

“I’m banning people, starting with the NRA”

After the National Rifle Association responded to the latest mass shooting with the compelling argument ‘guns don’t kill people, people do’, President Obama has decided to ban people from the United States.

“It’s been far too easy for guns to obtain people in America” said Obama. “While we have tried to limit people through immigration policies, people nakedly get round this by simply breeding. With this unchecked proliferation of people, guns have no trouble finding a person to fire them. Shockingly, in isolated areas people even outnumber guns.”

Gavin Hearn takes a walk on the wild side

A Harold metal worker who avant-garde music fans are hailing as ‘the new Lou Reed’ says he ‘doesn’t know what all the fuss is about’.

Gavin Hearn said it was just a normal Friday afternoon until a group of about 15 people, all dressed in an earnestly different sort of way, arrived at his workshop and asked if they could listen to him work on his lathe.

Cricket fan insists on finishing sex under Duckworth-Lewis method

Duckworth-LewisA cricket fan’s marriage is on the rocks after his continued insistence on ending sex under the Duckworth-Lewis method.

When it came to matters of an intimate nature, Harold car dealer and local councillor Ron Ronsson would always insist he’d won the toss and choose to go first, according to divorce papers filed in Dunstable County Court.

The affidavit from Ronsson’s wife Yvonne said Ron was obsessed by cricket, especially the 20/20 format, and he would conduct his love making in the same high octane manner shouting ‘four!’, ‘six!!’, or ‘that’s a huge one !!!’ after each stroke.

Hull – justifiably proud of its plentiful parking

Hull City Council today reassured potential visitors it has no travel ban list, and there is absolutely nothing whatsoever stopping people visiting Hull’s many attractions.

“No tourists have visited Hull in the last two years and it suddenly occurred to us that perhaps people thought we had a travel ban list” said the Lord Mayor of Hull Mary Glew.

“I think many would-be tourists were so excited about the prospect of visiting Hull, they just didn’t want to take the risk there was some sort of secret ‘banned list’ that would scuttle their holiday of a lifetime.”

Elderly Swiss chook denies responsibility for bad eggs

blatterAn elderly Swiss chook, Pegg Splatter, says a clutch of bad eggs has nothing to do with her, and she has absolutely no idea how they came to be found under her bottom.

American and Swiss poultry inspectors raided the Zurich henhouse looking for corrupted eggs, and their suspicions were aroused when Splatter shifted nervously on a bed of shredded brown envelopes and dollar bills.

Sam Allardyce’s family resigns to spend more time at the football

HammersSam Allardyce’s wife Lynn says she’s taking a break from household duties to spend more time at the football following West Ham United.

“The timing just felt right” explained Lynn. “I’ve been responsible for our Canary Wharf apartment for over four years and I think I’m leaving it in a better place than I found it.”

“I didn’t have the budget some of the Russian apartment owners had, so to be voted 12th best apartment in the block is still a real achievement, especially when you consider three other owners were evicted.”

Proud child tells class about gifted parent

dadA Harold schoolboy used his morning talk to tell his classmates that his dad was gifted, and quite possibly a genius.

Simon Atkins, 8, said he first realised his dad Alan was gifted when he got sacked from his job as an insurance assessor.

“It was clear to me that dad’s job wasn’t challenging enough for him and he was bored. As a high-functioning type he needed extra mental stimulation which is obviously why he chose to defraud the company he worked for and then burn down the premises to cover his tracks.”

Man stops to smell the roses and suddenly remembers he’s going to die

Businessman rose“I’d just been so … busy. Pressures of work, lots of chores to do round the house, and the kids constantly playing up. Existential stuff pretty much took a back seat” said Harold insurance assessor Alan Atkins.

“Then there was the distraction of the election, who would ultimately triumph? Those nasty Tories or those bumbling socialists? And what about Farage? Were some of his best friends really Muslim? I don’t know if there was a conclusive answer to that one.”
