Jeremy Corbyn has won this year’s Parliamentary Hide and Seek championship, after only emerging after everyone had stopped looking.
“You’ve got to give the Morning Star buying lentil botherer his due,” said third place runner-up David Cameron, “he’s less seen than Donald Trump’s humility! Nobody deserves this more. Not even Gove.”Mr Corbyn, who occasionally raises his head on a Wednesday for Prime Minister’s Get On The Telly Time (which is “barely” in the hide and seek competition), has had to come out of hiding this week as his favourite commie described the mass slaughter of civilians and Assad opposers in Aleppo as “liberation.”
“Yes, shame that,” said Michael Gove, who came in a strong second, “I thought he was going to stay hidden till Christmas!”
We went looking for Jezza to congratulate him but after hours of searching and asking other parliamentary bods if they’d seen him, we came up blank.
“I thought he’d be in his office,” said Black Rod, “but all I found was a slightly singed and empty brown monk’s habit and a light sabre.”
Congratulations from us at the Herald, Comrade Corbyn. Some are hoping you win the award next year too.
Although if Brexit or Theresa May want to give it a go, that’s fine by me.
