Not meaning to plagiarise and hope I don’t get sued but I thought I would repost this rather appropriate piece from Private Eye.
BURIED 57 FOUND ALIVE
There were scenes of jubilation last night in London after contact was finally made with 57 Liberal Democrat MPs buried under a Conservative government over 100 days ago.
“As we’d heard nothing from them in weeks we’d naturally assumed they’d all perished,” said a jubilant Liberal Democrat councillor.
Despite the initial euphoria, rescue workers were more downbeat about the long-term prospects for the trapped Liberal Democrat MPs, saying few are expected to emerge from underneath Kenneth Clarke alive. Said one, “I’m doing every thing I can to save them from being shafted.”
