Terrorists invade Parliament Square!!!

Yesterday despite the courageous efforts of Ian and Tony Blair, terrorists were able to assemble outside parliament and engage in illegal activity. Unbelievably the MET who are seen as world leaders in the fight against terror had licensed the event to happen!

A MET spokesman said: “Obviously this a blow to morale after our successes in Stockwell and Forest Gate, but we will learn from this and ensure that we are ready for them next time”. The incident happened when a protest was booked to support the PKK’s demands for human rights in Kurdistan. Bungling plods failed to notice that the PKK are illegal under recent terror legislation and so put already terrified Londoners lives at risk.

Life long Daily Mail reader Mrs Edna Agast said: “I don’t what my inheritance tax is going on? They clearly have not shot enough people yet, they only wounded the last one. It’s just political correctness gone mad!” Readers of The Sun are said to be organizing a campaign of direct action in protest at the MET’s incompetence. Meanwhile the Daily Mail are setting up a helpline for Londoners worried about their house prices.
