Hundreds Flock To Make-Shift Beach

Posted on by

Sandy news just in… This week the council accidentally dumped sand by the A434 main road near the public toilets and abbatoir. It was due to be used for some road works but local residents turned the small mound of sand into a tiny makeshift beach. News soon spread and hundreds have flocked to the area to enjoy the hot weather and sunbathe. As these visiting sun worshippers were young, unwashed and working class (if not unemployed or furloughed) no one was social distancing or wearing face masks, let alone washing their hands whilst singing happy birthday. So watch the numbers of Covid infections go up locally… I’m all for people enjoying themselves but not at the expense of others. Sainsco ran out of suncream and cheap wine so I wasn’t happy. On behalf of all tolerent, sensible Beckworth residents I say go home and take your litter and discarded underwear with you. Christine Batley.

Grayling Brushes Off Failure & Clarifies Face-Mask Confusion

Breaking political news just in… A slightly tipsy Chris “Failing” Grayling has just told reporters stationed all night outside his local pub that he’s not bothered about not getting the job of Head of World Security (promised to him by his life-long BBF Boris Johnson) as he’s instead going to head up the UK’s Covid response unit. He said this role suits him down to the ground, lots of TV appearances and visits to reopen pubs, bars and swanky restaurants and if he ****s up as usual the PM will cover up for him, just as he did for his other BFF Dom Cummings. In his first statement since becoming the “interim” head of Covid he sought to clear up any silly misunderstandings about whether to wear face masks in food shops or just supermarkets, Mr Grayling said “as a rule thumb, face masks, hats and gloves don’t need to be worn in any food emporium that sells caviar or sandwiches with the crusts cut off… Because the Covid disease only effects the poor and they don’t go in such high end establishments.” At last some clear guidance, thank you Sir Chris.
