‘Over the summer, I have had time to reflect and consider my future. I have decided to stand down as MP for Holborn and St Pancras and hand over to a successor.  I did complain about the unnecessary costs of a by-election in Makerfield and an election for a new Manchester mayor, but now I get it.  I’m out of here, suckers.


‘It’s been an honour and privilege to serve the constituency, but the job is thankless and underpaid.  I didn’t get into politics to deal with the first world problems of entitled nouveau riche arrivistes who only want to score political points rather than dealing with any real world issues.  I’ll be glad to get away from them and do something useful for a change.  I’m open to offers from any international bodies, except the Board of Peace and FIFA.


“I look back with pride on what I have delivered in Holborn and St Pancras since 2015, including those new litter bins, and my infamous war on dog do.


“I took my Party from the ruins, won an historic landslide election, fixed the economy, cured cancer, got rid of poverty, and eliminated NHS waiting lists.  And I cut VAT on summer attractions.  These are achievements of which I will always be proud.


‘Finally, I’d like to say a couple of words about Donald Trump.


‘Toss pot.’

Staff at the Oval Diner in DC are constantly thinking of ways to stop a very special little customer geting 'hangry'.


He's not interested in the usual colouring menus you see in restaurants - he always wants exactly the same fast food and can't keep inside the lines anyway, plus he only wants to use his black marker pen.


He's usually happy with just a sheet of paper in a fancy folder so he can sign his name and proudly display the unintelligible scribble, much like a toddler showing off a freshly filled potty.


Our latest idea is giving him printouts of maps. He loves crossing out names of places - gulfs, lakes, anything really.


Though he's not very imaginative with the renaming - so far it's just been America everything.

Chancellor of the Exchequer John Healey has enraged Secretary of Defence John Healey by refusing to raise defence spending to 3% of GDP.


Healey's offices clarified - again - that Dennis Healey died in 2015, before issuing parallel statements:


'I cannot support my own policy that I completely support. Therefore I must resign in an attempt to force my own resignation thus supporting whatever it was. If that doesn't work, I'll try the opposite. Sorry, what was the question?'


'Look, there's only enough money in the defence budget for me to buy a knife so that I can stick in my own back.'
