Your astrological week ahead, with Psychic Bob

Sagittarius (22 NOV-21 DEC)

No word on your novel about a dystopian future where every email and Facebook written in drunken spite then deleted is simultaneously sent.

Benefits claimants must reach semi finals of Masterchef

THE government has introduced compulsory Masterchef participation for benefits claimants.

Following Tory concern about culinary standards among the poor, anyone failing to reach the semi-finals of the television cookery show will have their dole stopped.

Duncan Smith said: “Claimants should not be wasting money on ready meals when they could easily rustle up some seared duck foie gras with a drizzle of white truffle oil.

“If they cannot impress calorie hoover Greg Wallace enough to make it through to doing the lunch service at a fancy restaurant then clearly they are not trying.

“I mean, all you have to do is put something in a steam bath and serve it with pea puree. Nick Clegg could manage that.”

Unemployed graduate Donna Sheridan said: “Iain Duncan Smith hasn’t got a clue what it’s like to apply for 15 jobs a day while making line-caught sea bass with chanterelles and lapsang souchong jus.

“On the plus side, it is an opportunity to drop something hot in Jay Rayner’s lap.”
