Rest of country demands unbearable London heat be livestreamed

THE rest of the UK has requested that today’s 33ºC heat in London be viewable on a livestream for their entertainment and pleasure. 

As the majority of the UK enjoys pleasant temperatures and perhaps even a light shower, Londoners are sweltering in a hell which could provide unmissable internet entertainment.

Nathan Muir of Manchester said: “We’re owed this after a dry Glastonbury.

“The camera can flip between stalled Tube trains full of the perspiring undead to exhaust-choked streets to boiling parks where they eat pathetic £8 warm salads while pigeons fall from trees around them, killed by the sheer heat.

“I’d have it on a little window in one corner of the screen, where porn goes when I’m not in the office, and draw succour all day from their suffering. I hope there’s a fat cabbie.”

Donna Sheridan of Hull agreed: “I’d like to see them undertake some pitiable leisure activity. Maybe a game of frisbee abandoned to the filthy heat, drinking in a tiny and unusably crowded pub garden, or just trying to sleep with the windows open.”

A BBC spokesman said: “Unfortunately this has been deemed impractical. It’s London, we wouldn’t get through an hour before someone shouted ‘F**k the IDF’.”

One evening on dating app worth six months of couples' counselling

AN evening of interaction with the online dating market saves more marriages than half a year being excruciatingly honest with a relationship counsellor, it has emerged. 

New research has found that couples experiencing compatibility issues will find they dissolve in mere hours when they experience for themselves the feral online free-for-all that is modern dating.

Dr Helen Archer said: “It’s easier to believe the grass is greener when you haven’t stepped onto it and been dragged into an infinite toxic swamp. So try that first.

“We gave 50 couples six months of counselling – you moan about each other and the other one has to sit there and take it – and 50 an evening on the apps. 18 per cent of the first group made it. Every couple in the second group are clinging together for dear life.

“Why? Because they’ve realised that dating is now fending off an army of hideous, illiterate sociopaths who believe a dick pic is a greeting and sex is a great way to say ‘I’m ending all contact permanently’. Better the twat you’re with than that.”

Stephen and Emma Malley are among those who, after one evening’s swiping, were inspired to renew their vows. She said: “Once we realised how much worse we could be doing, we fell in love all over again.

“Everyone should try this. Trust me, three hours with those predatory f**kers and your boring boyfriend becomes the most wonderful prince.”
