Drivel From Devizes - Dateline Sunday 29th January 2023

Drivel From Devizes: Dateline – Sunday 29th January 2023 

Here is our weekly round-up of events from D-Town:                                              

1.      As January enters its 55th day and 8th weekend, D-Town residents can finally see pay-day in sight.  Emerging, blinking into the light, from the dark holes in the ground they’d built for themselves over Christmas, New Year and Dry January, people are looking forward to a diet that consists of something more than leftover turkey & sprouts, broken Pringles, Pot Noodles and roasted roadkill. 

2.      And, in a fit of no-better-options, the Leader of the Council has just sacked the leader of his own party.  An internal enquiry had concluded that Ivor Bloodycheek had failed to properly cover up his mis-dealings with HMRC, failed to lie through his teeth effectively, and failed to present a half-way credible denial that he wanted to spend more time with his money.  As such, he had become a liability to the Party, since he could not present a truly professional front as an arrogant and over-privileged Tory.
