A Pretty Penny for the Lords

Channel 404 have produced a series of programmes on Benefit scroungers and they are among the richest and most powerful people in the country who are getting benefits for DOING NOTHING.

Ace reporter for Channel 404, Jonathan Wilkes, described the investigation that found hundrd of Peers of the Realm receiving State handouts just for being Peers. 'On top of that they get money for simply rolling up at the Lords. They don't have to vote or participate and they get their free meals and drinks all on us, the taxpsyers!'

The Government is so shocked by this news that they have decided to appoint another 45 people to the Lords costing us all another pretty penny that cannot be used on helping unworthy disabled people.

'It is all in the name of humanity' said a Government spokesperson 'if these august personages were not provided with funds for doing nothing they might get up to all types of mischief.'

The funny story above is a satire or parody. It is entirely fictitious.
