The news in brief 27th June 2015



After yesterday’s staggeringly brutal murders by cold-blooded right-wing madhats, it didn’t seem appropriate to share one-liners about the news. Better late than never, here’s yesterday’s the News in Brief, written mostly before the bad news started happening:   

The news in brief 26th June 2015:

The news in brief isn’t just a steaming turd on the mainstream media’s chest; it’s also a platform for making the world a better place. So today, we are proud to reveal our six step plan devalue the media’s narrow definition of beauty by making everyone beautiful:

Step 1: point the overweight, acne-riddled sack of wrinkly-arsed scar-tissue you call a body at a mirror.

Step 2:  smile.

Oh dear. It looks like we sorted that out in only two steps. Let’s fill up the last four points by listing things we enjoy:

Step 3: Burritos

Step 4: Nice cups of tea

Step 5: Criminal Minds

Step 6: Scrabble
