Drivel From Devizes - Dateline Sunday 24th February 2019


Drivel From Devizes: Dateline – Sunday 24th February 2019

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

1.      D-Town’s Town Council was thrown into disarray when seven councillors on the left defected to the centre, three in the centre defected to the right, four on the right defected to the left.  Cries of “don’t panic”, “no surrender” and “don’t tell him Pike!” were heard around the Council chamber.  The numbers remaining in the different parties is now completely unclear.  The Parish Clerk said that it had been a very defective week in politics all round. 

2.     And further bad news for the local economy came when it was announced on Thursday that the local pet shop will be closing in 2020 with the loss of up to 3 jobs.  A company spokes-bot refused to confirm that the closure was in any way linked to anything else that anyone may ever have read in the press about a situation in regional politics that may or may not be happening elsewhere. Ever. Honest. Not at all.
