Drugs and drugs

As we all know, there are two kinds of drugs. There are those sold in Little Interlect newsagents along with the Daily Mail to Mrs Frobisher, reducing her life expectancy by ten years and adversely affecting the health of anyone within breathing distance, while they discuss the other kind, which are taken by young reprobates […]

Blank canvas to lead Conservative party

The tories are disconcerted with their recent run of crushing election defeats. They consider themselves the natural party of government, being posh and thinking they own the place. Recent leadership elections have not helped matters, having been won by a Hammer Horror extra and two bald chaps whose names have escaped Blighty. As a result […]
