Desperate to quash rumours of further cracks in the UK government the first coalition in 65 years has released a statement ensuring the continuing cooperation of the two parties.
The statement from Number 10 Downing Street, issued this morning, says that the two parties are in fact so close that prime minister, David Cameron (Conservatives) and deputy prime minister, Nick Clegg (Liberal Democrats) share and swap clothes.
RIGHT: The editor had no idea what the story was about, so here’s this picture of a bunch of dudes in smocks.
“The pair often share clothes like two sisters, often giggling about wanting to wear the same outfit”. The statement went on to say that they both love the colour blue “Both Cameron and Clegg think that it is a colour that flatters their eye colour and complexion”.
A spokesperson for the Number 10 wardrobe says that he often finds both Cameron and Clegg in the back of the closet having a “little spat over ties but it is all in good spirit.”
Commentators questioned the statement as they found it hard to believe “Cameron wouldn’t be seen dead in anything that hobo Clegg wore”.
The last time Great Britain had a coalition was in 1945 when Sir Winston Churchill would share bags of potato chips (or crisps, as they are known in Britain) with his all-party government figures.
This is actually a picture of Lord Sugar. That is his real name.
