Another phone scandal, another world recession

The phone in scandals that have rocked the civilised world and caused the public stoning of a Blue Peter cat continue.

Finance boffins at Davos, Switzerland, attending the World Economics Forum have arrived at a stunning conclusion in their analysis of the recent stock market turbulence.

"We looked at all the variables in a number of different models" a source close to the UK Treasury told this website "and the results were the same. The markets crashed as a result of lack of confidence in the results of the phone in for 'I'm a celebrity get me out of here'."

Ant or Dec were unavailable for comment, but people from Newcastle said: "Kevin Keegan is now manager - who cares about a world recession. Maybe Sir Kev should take over at the Federal Reserve."

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