| | Labour in promiscuity shock
9 Jul 2002
Labour party members top to bottom were up in arms today after it was suggested that they were "screwing everyone". The claim was made by the shadow chancellor, Michael Howard, in an interview on BBC Radio 4 about the forthcoming Comprehensive Spending Review (CSR).
MPs and grassroots members alike responded angrily to Mr Howard. "This is complete rubbish," said Douglas Ramsbottom, a factory worker from Liverpool. "Howard needs his head seeing to."
Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott was equally annoyed. "This is an outrage!" he bellowed at a passing cyclist outside the Commons. "I'm a married man for God's sake. Yes, I know some people like to screw around (eh, Robin?), but it's by no means all of us. I am 100% faithful to Joanne – er – I mean Pauline."
Excuse me, would you mind?
