With the appointment of Boris Johnson, satirists are accusing the Conservatives of an increased workload of up to 50%!!
Ian Hislop's contract with 'Have I got news for you ' has been secured until the next general election!!..........and of course sales of Private Eye are set to go through the roof!!!
What's going on????

I subscribed to Private Eye at exactly the right time, I think.

The satirists are surely having their work done for them? I'd never credited TM with a sense of humour, but some of these appointments are pure comedy, its like a famous Torquay hotel all over again, how long before Boris is beating his car with a sapling and trying hard to not mention the war?

"Boris Johnson appartient à une espèce hélas inexistante en France. Le maire de Londres, également député conservateur, est un adepte de la politique façon Monty Python" (Le Monde, late last year)

Apparently Boris Johnson's appointment was all a terrible mistake. Theresa May wrote "F. Off." next to his name and a civil servant misinterpreted it.
