Concerns have been raised after it was revealed that Rishi Sunak aide, Craig Williams, has placed a large bet that the government will be delivering a parcel of excrement to every household in the UK.
The BBCs political correspondent, Joe Pike, explained that Mr Williams was close to the Prime Minister and it, unfortunately, seemed likely that this would be carried out. 'The government has been criticised for allowing water companies to pump excrement into rivers so one solution would be to post parcels of it around the country. This was seen as a 'marginal' policy by many, but this bet seems to make it much more likely.'
'If North Korea can use rubbish bags as a sort-of weapon, then the Tories can too.'

The 2024 Oxford versus Cambridge University Boat Race was predicted to be a sluggish affair. Both crews had prepared well for this year's row, bringing their own nose pegs. Or earplugs, depending on how you just read the word 'row'.
Those watching from bridges over the Thames were distracted by an endless game of pooh-sticks, all of the countless vessels made from real, genuine poo. As expected, Cambridge pushed out hard, but in a considerably more thrilling race than usual, the winner was a turd from Luton College.
Organisers of the race said, 'Yet another great tradition has been ruined by @rseholes from Oxbridge. In future, the event will be renamed the University Floater Race.'
