Further embarrassment for Ed Miliband as he accidentally votes for Ukip

Probably best if you just stay in the house for a while Ed

Probably best if you just stay in the house for a while Ed

A bad week for Ed Miliband ended on another embarrassing note today as it emerged that he had accidentally voted for Ukip in his local council elections.

The Labour leader had already struggled with the cost of his weekly shop, the name of the Labour candidate in Swindon, and eating a bacon sandwich like a normal human being. Now it appears that he has also forgotten the name of his local councillor and, after taking a stab in the dark, succeeded in getting the wrong party entirely. Continue reading

‘Let’s settle this like men’: Putin demands to wrestle Prince Charles

putin-topless-sq

Vladimir Putin: moobs out and ready to wrestle, always ready.

As the controversy surrounding Prince Charles comparing Vladimir Putin to Hitler grows, the Russian President is demanding the right get physical.

“I will kick that tampon-fixated mummy’s boy into next week,” a shirtless Putin bellowed as he beat his chest. “Come to Moscow, Prince Too Thick To Know He’s Thick, and I’ll show you how a democratically elected national figurehead throws down. When I’m done it’ll take more than a coffee enema to fix you, it will take a miracle.” Continue reading

Better days: Dave ‘n’ Nick setting up political home together in 2010

Dear Nick,

It’s May and election results are pouring in. To be honest they’re not looking that good for the Conservatives. Just like four years ago, hey? Except as the sun began to rise on that particular May morning I realised how attractive you were, you had that elusive ‘enough seats so I could be Prime Minister’ quality that no one else did which combined with your lack of shame and political convictions made you irresistible.

“If you want a nutter for a neighbour, vote Ukip” shock over new Tory slogan

02-ukip2-gt

According to their opponents if Ukip triumph today there will be one of these (whatever the hell this is) in every street in the land.

As the country heads to the polling stations the Tories have caused a last minute sensation with a new campaign slogan.

“The gloves are off,” said the Secretary of State for Europe David Lidington at an early morning press conference. “With the admittedly forthright language of our new slogan we are trying to wake people up. We’re saying engage with the process, get out and vote today or there will be an influx of fruitcakes and swivel-eyed loons in every decent, hard-working British community.” Continue reading

New warning for Scotland: become independent and you’ll be responsible for Tony Blair

emily-davison-image-2-426339720

You want to know where he got those scars? Sorry, wrong man. For some reason we were thinking about The Joker

With just four months until the referendum Scotland has been warned of a new consequence of independence: Tony Blair.

“The Yes campaigners are constantly bigging up famous and influential Scots,” said Better Together spokesperson Lydia Tanner. “Well, if Scotland becomes independent it will be responsible for arguably the most influential Scot of them all and must embrace Tony Blair as one of its own.” Continue reading

Police seek the notorious ‘Uncle’ after spate of nose thefts

nose-theft

Look who’s playing Voldemort in the school panto!

Police in the village of Harold are today hunting a shadowy underworld figure known only as ‘the Uncle’ after an epidemic of nose-stealing left scores of local children nasally-bereft.

“The victims came to us with very similar stories,” said PC Anita Flegg. “Each one had their nose removed in broad daylight by a figure who they referred to as ‘the Uncle’. “

“The criminal’s modus operandi seems never to change – in each case, the nose is stolen between the culprit’s index and middle finger, a truly shocking, if mildly amusing crime.” Continue reading

The sun does not have a hat on: top facts about the solar system’s end of level boss

320px-The_sun1

The sun: wonderful yet ultimately deadly, just like cake

Today is the hottest day of the year so far. Thus we proudly present the following top facts about the big yellow bastard to entertain you as you swelter. And remember when the mercury rises to always wear sunscreen, to drink lots of water and that while dogs don’t like being kept in hot cars elderly relatives absolutely love it.

Sun-packed Fun Facts

1. The sun was discovered in 1836 by pioneering scientist Sir Hubert Sun. Before then everything was dark.

2. 40% of Americans believe that the sun is the warmth from God’s smile.

3. At night, it turns into the moon. Many primitive tribes still believe they are two different things.

4. FIFA chief Sepp Blatter has admitted that holding the 2022 World Cup there may be a mistake, due to the sun’s poor transport links.

5. Prolonged exposure to the sun alters your brain chemistry causing you to believe you look great in shorts when in reality the opposite is true.

6. The sun isn’t perfectly spherical. There’s a bit that sticks out, shaped like that mole on your back.

7. Potatoes are baby suns that haven’t yet hatched.

8. The sun does not have a hat on. That would be racist.

9. Staring at the sun isn’t bad for your eyes. It just highlights the absolute futility of your meaningless, pathetically short existence.

10.  Strictly speaking, the sun is not a planet at all – it is a sun.

11. When the sun is very sad at what you are doing, he cries. This is called “rain”. The worse you are, the more rain you will get.

12.  Everything in the solar system revolves around the sun, except Piers Morgan’s ego.

13. The sun is the only star with its own dedicated newspaper, which contains important news about the solar system, and tits.

14. The sun used to go to Australia at night but Tony Abbott won’t let it in.

15. The sun is so hot that if you tried to eat an ice cream on it the ice cream would melt before you even had chance to drop it down your shirt. This would be the least of your worries though, because you would have died a fiery death.

E.on’s new logo

E.on will pay out a record £12m penalty after being found guilty of ‘being bastards’ by industry regulator Ofgem. The verdict was initially something complicated about mis-selling and rule breaches, but has been amended to the more straightforward ‘bastards’ charge after many people were left unclear as to exactly what the energy giant had done wrong.

TV viewers vow suicide pact if Richard and Judy get another series

Suffering beyond the limits of endurance

Local TV fans Jenny Renfield and husband Arthur have raised a storm in the media by claiming they have agreed to a mutual assisted death pact should Richard and Judy’s morning talk show ever return to television.

In an interview with the Evening Harold, Mrs Renfield said: “If Arthur was really forced to endure that horrific suffering, I wouldn’t give a tuppenny if there was a risk of being prosecuted. I’d do what was right, and I’d take the consequences. That is your job, that is your responsibility as a partner and viewer.”

Her husband agreed, saying: “I wouldn’t let my wife go through that sort of torture. The locked room, the bottle of whisky and the revolver, no messing about. Unless I could find the TV remote and change channels, of course.” Continue reading

Far-right group calls for points of compass to be renamed to ‘confuse Muslamics’

032

Look at them, threatening UK society with their friendship and truly amazing eyebrows, will no one think of the children?

An offshoot of the BNP called Prime Britain is campaigning to have the points of the compass renamed in the belief that this will mean devout Muslims won’t know where Mecca is when they come to pray.

“We’re taking a stand for all decent British people whose way of life is under threat,” said Prime Britain leader Kev Gadsby. “This is a Christian country and Muslamics have no right to be facing another country or town or whatever like it’s better or something.” Continue reading

Workshy beware: MERs virus not yet a believable excuse for calling in sick

caspost.com-sleeping-man-alarm-clock-600x400

Calling in today? Remember that claiming to have morning sickness often leads to unwelcome attention. Especially if you’re a man.

An independent poll has confirmed that giving suffering from the MERS virus as a reason for not going to work will be considered bullshit by over 90% of employers.

Middle Eastern respiratory syndrome, commonly known as MERs, is real and can be fatal however its title contains a big clue as to where you have to have been to be exposed to it. Anyone wanting a lie-in and a day away from office-based horror should be aware that having recently had a short-break in Machynlleth is not enough. Continue reading
