Wheelie Bin House Smoking Pack Confusion
From next month house owners who wish to smoke in rubbish bins will need to pay for a household bin smokers pack costing around £300. In a confused statement a government spokesman said that the new law was designed to limit people's rights in an inconclusive manner so that no one would know how to challenge it properly. 'It's a bureaucratic nightmare,' said one man who had been fined for not emptying his ash tray on the correct day into his recycling bin within environmental boundaries.

England's Glory for Cutty Sark
Work has continued on restoring the Cutty Sark in Greenwich to its original burnt out glory. The ship, which had previously been kept in pristine condition, was felt to be out of step with modern thinking on how history should be presented. A spokesman said the new 'charred and ruined' shell was more 'realistic'.

Things Can Only Get Gone
After ten years in power Tony Blair has finally said he will step down on June 27th. In an emotional speech the Prime Minister said that 'as interest rates rise, inflation soars, the NHS is in crisis, public services are a shambles, the war in Iraq gets worse and people's sense of identity is eroded away I say it is time to leave and let someone else take the blame. Preferably Gordon Brown but I'll take Cameron. Frankly, I don't care.'

'I Am Risen' Says Paris
Paris Hilton has shocked the world by endorsing a web site claiming she is the daughter of God and the rightful heir to the Heavenly Throne. The site, not created by Paris Hilton, also portrays Paris as 'sexier than Mother Theresa' and 'more alive than Princess Diana', but it is her apparent relationship with God and Jesus that has angered religious leaders around the world. In a statement on the website, which was in no way made by Hilton to publicise her lack of dignity in the public gaze, she added that 'I guess with Jesus being my brother and, like, God as my dad I can only, you know, do good in the world and deliver people from their dull, predictable and miserable pathetic lives, or whatever.'

Prince Primed for Peace
News that Prince Harry is to be fired into Iraq has caused controversy within the military and media as well as causing widespread panic in the Middle East. The missile, whose warhead has been specially designed to encase the third-in-line-to-the-throne-soldier, will be deployed over Basra in an attempt to disrupt insurgency activity long enough for ground troops to erect a memorial to the Prince's mother, Princess Diana, in an effort to bring peace and stability to the region. No one was available for comment.
