A well known superhero is nearing his personal goal of lying every time he speaks.
“It’s not easy. It’s harder than climbing Mount Everest,” the hero told LCD’s WTF correspondent, “of course I’ve climbed Mount Everest numerous times. It’s actually the best secure storage place for secret dossiers.”
The hero has been in training for decades, and is well known for a looser than usual grasp of the truth, but lately he’s gone after his personal best with an enthusiasm that has left many stunned.
Passerby Demo Cracy had this to say, “I need a shower.”
It’s thought he will get over the line, thanks to the eager help of various media starlets.
“Marr is a total team player with the national interest at heart,” the superhero enthused, “I go on there this morning and just waffle absolute bollocks and there is no push back. It’s a charm. What the hell is Canada plus plus plus? Probably full EU membership.”
He stopped talking abruptly, aware he had inadvertently told the truth.
“I never said Canada plus plus plus. I said Norway plus Canada minus Sweden gives you German exemptions on bratwurst in addition to France importing English wine and no problems whatsoever posed by the FTA with Japan and our car industry. It will actually increase British car exports to Japan by at least, a minimum of, five hundred percent and one tuna fish.”
It’s not clear how much longer it will take him to reach his personal goal, but you can be sure of one thing, it’s costing the country a hell of a lot to watch him try.
But it’s worth it. It’s part of taking back control.
