In a surprise move, Mrs. Cherie Blair, famous for being the richest woman in Britain, will be deported to France, a Home Office spokescat announced.
Speaking from his bowl of Kit-e-kat, he said: 'We have too many overpaid, parasitical barristers in Britain now, and Mrs. Blair is the first one to be got rid of.' Former Minister for Ham Acting, Tony 'OK' Blair, said, with a pint of onion soup under his nose: 'Yes, sniffle sniffle, it had to happen sooner or later. You could hardly move in the streets of London for all the barristers there, doing nothing except begging for money from the government. I'm sorry, Cherie, but it's auf wiedersehn pet for you, tha' knaas.'
And Minister For Undereating, Tony 'Double Cheeseburger and Chips' Prescott said: 'Aye, she's 'ad 'er chips, booger off and let the rest of us get our snouts in the trough, filled to the brim with black pudding suppers.'
But some left-wingers were unhappy with the move, and one, Ms. Liberia Liberella, said: 'This a breach of EU regulation 452, which clearly states that barristers are allowed freedom of movement, and allowed endless freedom to help themselves to taxpayers' money.'
Mrs. Blair herself got her own barrister to read out a statement, which cost her £332,000, and it said: 'Mrs. Blair will be fighting the deportation order immediately, and until then will be basking in the sun in the Maldives, and filling in expenses forms to claim back later. She denies being overpaid, and she denies the denying that deniers have also, to wit, denied.'
But a friend of Cherie's, Mr. 'X', said: 'Look,um, ya know, I was getting sick of her anyway. She kept earning ten times, er, what I do, and, well, was even more famous than me. Take whippet with thee when tha' gaws, loov, and don't forget to cancel t' milk.'
And Mrs. Blair's father, actor Tony 'No Relation' Blair, added: 'As long as our kid sends us some decent wine, we don't care.' Gordon Brown was too busy laughing to make any comment.
