Uppers down, downers up, report drug dealers at Tory conference

DEALERS at the Conservative Party conference are struggling to move cocaine but cannot keep opioids in stock, they have confirmed. 

Suppliers of illicit substances have been looking forward to the boost in trade for months, but have reported disappointing returns as delegates avoid the conference floor to sink into narcotic oblivion in their rooms.

Nathan Muir said: “Normally I can’t shift amphetamines fast enough because all the young Tories want to be up working on policy until 4am, like Thatcher.

“Even last year I was punting MDMA to true blue believers trying to recapture the soaring euphoric highs and the crushing comedown lows of the Truss fiscal event.

“This year? It’s all about numbing yourself and dissociating, which is why I was out of ketamine on day one. You can’t snort enough cocaine to get yourself through a Chris Philp speech. You’d have to be face down in the mound.

“I’ve got a stock of crystal meth, which makes you feel energised, hyperintelligent, and suffer grandiose delusions of effortless superiority, so that’s been bulk-bought by Kemi. Otherwise it’s smack all the way.”

Conservative delegate Margaret Gerving said: “What I really want to get high on is pure, uncut nationalism, but Nige has locked up distribution.”

Secret of happy relationship for man to be punching a bit

FULFILLED and long-lasting relationships are those where the man is less attractive than his partner and knows it, experts have confirmed. 

While alignment on values, social background and shared interests all have their place, nothing secures monogamy than the male being aware that if he f**ks this up he will never do this well again.

Professor Henry Brubaker, of the Institute for Studies, said: “Men thrive on a low, constant hum of fear and gratitude. It keeps them attentive.

“When a man is fully aware he could be replaced within 48 hours with someone taller, more emotionally intelligent and better at DIY, his commitment levels rocket. He is unthinkingly faithful and remembers even minor anniversaries.

“Punching above one’s weight encourages men to participate in activities they would normally dismiss, such as foreplay, watching period dramas and buying cushions, all out out of an intoxicating mix of lust and fear.

“Even when opportunities for infidelity arise, they spurn them because they know being single again means their only romantic prospects are warty ladies who use phrases like ‘my truth’ unironically.”

Joanna Kramer said: “So for a happy relationship, all I have to do is settle for a man several levels lower than I deserve? And you present this like it’s news.”
