News From Bromham - Dateline Sunday 2nd December 2012

Bulletin From Bromham: Dateline – 2nd December 2012

Here is our weekly round-up of events from Bromham:
·      There was outrage in the village this week when a consignment of leeks was removed from its warehouse by Bromham Vegetable Social Services (the SS) simply because its owners were known to be members of the Carrot Rooters’ Action Party (CRAP).  The leader of CRAP, Ted Willyband, described the action as “totally baffling”.

·      The publication of the Levergate Report into parsnip regulation has caused a major stir amongst Bromham’s community of parsnip-growers.  The chairman of the Parish Council, Peter Piglet, having pretended to read the report, has decided that he is against a statutory under-pinning of parsnip regulation, which has caused outrage not only amongst opposition ranks, but also within his own party.  Victims of parsnip discrimination and other vegetable intrusions protested outside the Council chamber for almost ten minutes on Thursday night.  However, once they found out that there was no-one inside, they retired to the saloon bar of The Wounded Ferret to complain to anyone else who could be bothered to listen.

·       For details of these and all other Bromham stories, don’t forget to listen to local radio station Carrot FM.
