Shock Proposal to Privatise Hell


In a move that shocked Heaven and Earth alike, and which was weirdly predicted on Saturday by Choughworld, Hell has been subjected to a hostile takeover.  Analysts predict huge redundancies amongst minor demons as damnation services are put out to tender.  G4S are widely tipped to secure several of these contracts.

A spokesman for the newly formed British Hell announced "For too long, the damned have been an under-used resource, for whom eternally punishment in the pits of hell is ultimately a lifestyle choice.  Under BH's new Chairman Baroness Thatcher, these scroungers will be rounded up and forced to pay for their upkeep.  We will also recover the running costs of the enterprise from the descendents of the damned."

This move was greeted with support from the current cabinet. "Why didn't we think of that?" they mused.

    I am sure Mrs Thatcher would approve

      I'm hoping her coffin will be sponsored rather than burden the public purse.


      But I can't think of anyone funny to sponsor it...

      Probably quite a few will pay for the embalming, just to make sure she is dead

      I can't believe that I'll be paying for her funeral. I'm going to withhold £3,000,000 in taxes as a protest.

    Well that is one less wealthy pensioner getting a winter fuel allowance.

    The Daily Moan has provided an excellent roundup of all the disgraceful comments from lefties.

      I think David Wilton has reached a new record low for one of his comments.

    Hey ho - another day, another fight with racism, bigotry, bullying and far right viewpoints. Never tire of it

      Light at the end of the tunnel. Yesterday my mother confessed she'd stopped reading the Daily Mail as it made her depressed. It's still fairly strongly imprinted on her psyche though.

      You didn't mention you worked for UKIP?

      I think Choughworld has a lot in common with UKIP. We're not very funny and they're not very funny.

      The main difference is we're trying to be funny, and they're trying to be serious. And we're not racists in suits of course.

      The light at the end of the tunnel has been extinguished. Mrs Chough Senior is back on the Daily Mail,

      Mrs Chough Jnr (running for cover....)
