Scientists today announced they’ve discovered a way to turn the factional infighting of Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana’s Your Party into a limitless source of cheap energy.


'The trouble with existing hydrogen-based fission reactors is that you have to put the material under extreme heat and pressure to make it split into its component parts,' explained Dr Bunsen Honeydew. 'So most of the energy you get out, you have to put straight back in to keep the reaction going.


'But this new material, yourpartium, is incredible - you just need a tiny amount and it gets overheated and starts splitting all by itself. In fact, some experiments suggest you just need a single atom of corbynium and one of sultanium, and fission occurs almost immediately.'


Newspaper columnists and cartoonists confirmed they also find the party a limitless source of cheap gags, often referencing the People’s Front of Judea from Monty Python’s 'Life of Brian'.


'However, it does have the same problem fission always does,' Dr Honeydew continued, 'in that it produces a rather toxic waste product - in this case, bitterness. 


'Clearly, we need to find a way of disposing of it safely. One suggestion is to combine it with the former Prince Andrew’s bitterness at losing his titles and status, and dump the whole lot out at sea.'

Well o’ course we had it tough. We used to get up in the morning at half-past-ten at night, half an hour before the air raid sirens sounded. We'd have to get up outta shoebox-sized bedroom, an’ clear an air-hole through t’rubble with our tongues. We spat out half a handful of freezing cold gravel from the drone strike, work our way through to the aid truck area for a handful of grain a year; an’ when we got home, IDF would slash us in two with tracer shells and dance about on us graves, singing Hava Nagila.


An' you try an tell the young people of today that, and the People’s Front of Palestine will issue a new fatwa for a jihadi pogrom of Quranic proportions!


Chateau de Chasseley, anyone...?
