Where are all the jokes?

[Kai]

A short joke for Kai. Baroness Mone has admitted to PPEing in the House of Lords.

I don't get it sry

So even the jokes are political now too!

The most pointless statement you ever hear on the news is, "environmental campaigners are not happy".

When has an environmental campaigner ever been happy? You can meet them at a social event and they're still not happy?

Laughing has now been banned in the UK. This will have to be the last post of the thread, for UK forumites at least.

The King was giving a speech in the House of Commons. He said, "My ministers will support the Bank of England, to return inflation to target by taking responsible decisions on spending and borrowing.

Well in January Sunak promised to halve inflation by the end of the year. At that time inflation was 10.7% so Sunak's target would be 5.35%. The current rate of inflation is 6.3% so it has come down by 4.4% (41%) so well on the way to achieving that 5.35% target. Do you feel the Government should not help the BoE to reduce inflation.

This is the jokes thread, not the UK election thread. The essence of the joke was, people responsible for spreading the virus by halving the cost of eating out, thinking you can eat for 30 pence, pinch people's bums without consequence, and are happy to allow thousands of bodies to "pile high", will be "taking responsible decisions". I found it absolutely hilarious

Sorry Kai but where do I post my disagreement with Derek's political (monarchist) 'joke'. I couldn't see a joke in it, I only saw it as a pure political and anti-royalist statement masquerading as a joke!

You and nobody else I would suggest. Your (non) joke seemed a clear political statement so I gave political heckling! If you try to tell a joke and it fails miserably you must expect heckling.

It failed on you, and you didn't even understand it. How do you know it didn't cause any amusement? I've found jokes on this thread funny but I don't reply to every one of them. Only a live standup comedian knows if nobody found his joke funny.

To answer the question you asked Kai, you could copy the quote and post it to the more appropriate thread.

Definitely not a joke by any standards.
Stick to the beer garden or rant corner with that stuff.

Anyway, back to the dad jokes.


I've just heard that they aren't making shortbread any longer

How can you track Will Smith in the snow ?

You just look for the fresh prints

[firlandsfarm]

I really can't be bothered anymore Derek, you, like Putin, can carry on spreading your biased misleading political comments and thinking that all always agree with you!
