SPARE ROOM DOT COM : THE ECUADORIAN EMBASSY in London has reacted with what has been called “instinctive swiftness garnered from long experience” today to the Supreme Court judgement that Boris Johnson unlawfully advised Queen Elizabeth (second of her name) to prorogue parliament.
“At a little after 10:30am this morning an embassy staffer was seen exiting the building in a hurry and legging it towards a nearby W H Smith,” our reporter, live on the scene, reports, “they returned minutes later with a large sheet of white card and some new black marker pens.”
And it wasn’t long before the stationery purchase was put to good use.
“Then, in what seemed no time at all, a sign was hang over the balcony made famous during Julian Asssange’s stay,” our reporter continues, “and it reads ‘No way Boris. F*#k off.”. It’s not clear which Boris the message is aimed at, but I suggest a famous one.”
Rumours on social media suggest it is exactly the Boris on everyone’s lips that the sign is for.
“If it is outgoing prime minister Boris Johnson we can only presume the Ecuadorian, and the Ecuadorean embassy staff are worried about exactly how many friends he will bring with him into asylum and what security risk he would pose to the staff? Especially with the anticipated comings and goings in the middle of the night to shag other people’s wives.”
But while the fast action on behalf of the Ecuadorian Embassy is to be applauded, we have heard a rumour they hung out the sign on the directions of a certain Dominic “Short” Cummings who had already placed a deposit on the spacious, basement broom cupboard come long stay bedroom.
“And one thing seems certain, in light of the events at the Supreme Court today,” our correspondent finishes, “like the sign, Boris Johnson is soon to be hung out to dry.”
