President Donald Trump has said that his promise to sell Ukraine thousands of Tomahawk missiles is withdrawn because when he asked President Putin, Putin just tapped a file marked 'Epstein' and shook his head.  So Ukraine aren't going to get the weapons that could potentially force a ceasefire, withdrawal and sudden fall for Putin from a high Kremlin window.  Instead a range of weaponry has been given the green light by Putin to allow the war to continue until everyone is killed, bored or Farage is Prime Minister, committing all of the UK to aid Russia.


'Spud guns are allowed,' a spokesman for the President said (either, you guess, it doesn't make much difference).  'We had them as kids and they really sting.  That's why the President wears thick layers of orange makeup/sits fifty foot away from the nearest person (delete as inapplicable),' he said.


Other weapons allowed are conkers on really long strings, not boiled or soaked in vinegar as that's 'really mean'.  Catapults are allowed as well, and the recent ban in the UK is going to provide a strong supply chain. Or supply elastic rubber bands. Chinese burns are going to be allowed, but not on North Korean soldiers.  Or Russians either.  Wedgies are permitted in small groups, as is the use of wet towels.


'The President is going to loosen the restrictions on hurty words,' said the spokesman, again not making it clear who was directing the instructions.  Acceptable hurty words include 'Фарадж является российским прихвостнем', 'Брексит — это российский заговор с целью свержения Запада', and 'Реформаторы — хорошие ребята для России'.  However 'Оранжеволицый хорёк из Соединённых Штатов Америки находится в файлах Эпштейна, и у Путина есть копия.'  is on the banned list.  For now.

Obviously we want them to do well, but not that well, not so well that they might actually win. Nobody is going to hit their sales targets if things spiral out of control and a truce happens.


'Ideally we want a protracted conflict, where Ukraine can be plucky but ultimately thwarted. Peace would be nice, but not as nice as $5bn of arms sold each month.'

Charles has set Harry a target of 10,000 charitable works to secure his rehabilitation to royal life.


Every journey begins with the first step. In this case, it's Harry's visit to Ukraine. Charles said that Harry's donation to Children in Need does not count, as rehabilitation must be earned and cannot be bought. And nor should rehabilitation be filmed for Netflix or written about in trashy books.


After a long period of abstinence from the media a modest BBC documentary on BBC Four might be acceptable.


Harry is reported to be very pleased, as he now feels that he has a purpose in life, beyond transferring popcorn from big bags into little bags. He has worked out that, at the rate of two visits a day, he should be restored to the King's good books by 2039. As long as nothing else goes wrong before then...
