Dangerous con artists seeking to cheat the public

Police are very worried about a gang of dangerous con artists who are planning, each in their own way, to scam the British public, make lots of money for various corrupt friends and generally be a public menace.

If you see any of these people, DO NOT APPROACH THEM. They are very dangerous, both to one's wallet/purse and also to mental health.

A picture of the gang has been released and we hear they are currently engaged in a power struggle. If successful, one of them will shortly be in charge of not just their usual confidence tricks, but a special long con involving the whole country.

Please be careful and don't trust them if they offer you glittery-sounding things, which they all will be doing shortly.

The one third along on the top row looks like he might offer you a glass of wine and a free dinner if you're prepared to sit in a very hot stuffy room for two hours and listen to the benefits of sharing the ownership of a 'villa' on the Costa Brava.

Hope none of them check their TSR account today, and see you posting this. Might do you for gross defamation.

In a related story, police are looking for an opposition. It's been missing since 2015.

I think he tried to sell me the Eiffel Tower a couple of years ago.

I thought this was serious, I actually laughed out loud

Police are also puzzled by the appearance of a known Russian operative, a Mr Farage, as apparent leader of the country. They are currently discussing something called a 'coup' to see if the CPS will accept the charge.

Wait till Boris comes in. Then you won't know if you should laugh or cry.

Oh dear. This was meant to be a satire, but it looks like some pundits think it's the truth.

Simples. It will be Andrea Leadsom and Jeremy Hunt on the third ballot.

Lol, I don't have a ****ing clue.

If Bojo wins, we will either be led into a catastrophic series of errors resulting in tragedy, or a very bad series of blunders leading to chaos. whereas if Gove wins, it will be the exact opposite.
