Here is another zany comical news desk sketch I wrote
in December 2007
This is one about The RT Hon Gordon Brown - UK Prime
Minister 2007...
And now for the news ....
The Prime Minister
Gordon Brown, nicknamed by many as "Mr
Bean", "Boring Bovine Brown"
and other such appropriate names, saw
his leadership thrown into question
yet again today, this time he made yet
another blunder in his ability to get
to grips with the issue of foot and
mouth disease in Britain, an issue close
to his heart given that his appearance
and the manner to which he articulates
his words, by way of appearing to 'chew
the cud' like a cow. He ordered 15 cows
with foot and mouth disease to be chained
to the railings in Downing Street so
that people could see just how it affects
them. Fellow ministers refused to enter
Downing Street as a result, except to
address the media forming a crowd outside,
to say that they felt that Gordon Brown
had gone stark raving mad. One even
went so far as to say that Gordon Brown
seemed to be suffering from 'Mad Cow
Disease'!
Gordon Brown
watching such comments being broadcast
live on UK TV news programmes decided
that enough was enough, and fuelled
the fires of criticism he came out of the
front door of Downing Street and mounting
one of the diseased cows, after releasing
it from its tether he rode it down
Downing Street and towards the Houses
of Parlaiment, shouting, "get a
grip of Foot and Mouth, I am".
Police eventually
had to apprehend Gordon Brown as he
went so far as to ride the cow into
the Houses of Parliament itself, scaring
all in his wake out of the way and causing
criminal damage to pavements and corridors
by allowing the cow to muck them, as
it saltered along the way carrying Gordon
Brown.
Gordon Brown
was forced to appear before London Magistrates
court later to be held accountable for
his bizarre behaviour and criminal damages.
Magistrates fined Gordon Brown £90,000
for damages and a further £30,000 for
setting a bad example to the country,
he was also ordered to have some shock
treatment in a London Psychiatric hospital.
Magistrates told
Gordon Brown that he was a poor excuse
for a Prime Minister and that he needed
to stop being obsessed with cows and
thus curb his obsessive compulsion toward
Bovines. Gordon Brown was taken away
from the court and was admitted to the
London Psychiatric Hospital straight
from the court.
And now for the weather news....
Tonight there will be freezing snow over the cell in the
London
Psychiatric Hospital in which Gordon Brown is being detained,
but the rest of the country will have a mild warm night.
Tomorrow there will be a tornado over the cell in the London
Psychiatric Hospital in which Gordon Brown is being detained, but the rest
of the country will have fabulously warm sunshine and the highest of
summer temperatures!
That is all for tonight.
Goodnight! Written By Kaz Stevens
