Unless we get everything we want we'll all leave tomorrow, warn businessmen, investors, landlords and other Tories

A GROUP of natural Tories have warned Labour to run the country in their best interests or every one of them will have left the country by Friday. 

A major investment summit in London, hosted by the prime minister, prompted the assembled rich people to demand that everything be run exactly how they would like it or they are gone.

Norman Steele, managing director of a UK construction company, told Labour: “You’ve been elected. So time to drop all this workers’ rights bollocks.

“To be attractive as an investment, your workers need to have no employment rights whatsoever, no minimum wage, none of this health and safety shite and a fatalistic acceptance of workplace death. That’s what we had in the 1800s.”

Property owner Eleanor Shaw said: “Any country where I can’t throw tenants out at a moment’s notice because I want a rent increase is a basket case. It’s bad for landlords, bad for the property market and bad for tenants.

“If this isn’t dropped smartish I, and the dozens of homes I rent out across the West Midlands, are moving to Dubai. They know how to treat a terraced house from Dudley there.”

Keir Starmer said: “I’m only calling your bluff because I love you so very, very much.”

Learner driver effortlessly tackling everything empty industrial estate can throw at him

A LEARNER driver is handling the flat roads and unobstructed corners of his local industrial estate like a pro, he has confirmed. 

17-year-old Oliver O’Connor has amazed his driving instructor Roy Hobbs with his uncanny skill in gently cruising along in a straight line at a steady 15 miles per hour and smoothly pulling up when told without suddenly veering into a warehouse.

Hobbs said: “Kid’s got the knack. He’s got that ten-to-two position down and can change between first and second gear with only light violent lurching.

“I thought the lack of other motorists and total absence of confusing road signage might overwhelm him, but apparently not. And you should have seen how he didn’t clip the curb while turning by judiciously using the whole width of the road.

“He made slowly reversing into an empty side road look easy, and nodded along approvingly as I explained parallel parking though we couldn’t try it because there weren’t any other cars.

“At one point I wondered if this was some twisted prank, but then he brought the car to a halt, coolly flicked on his hazards, and flashed me his provisional licence. To say I felt humbled would be a massive understatement.”

O’Connor said: “I could do this shit at dusk or during light rain. I’m that good.”
