The Cameronitis strain of Toryitis could lead to an international pandemic

A small Oxfordshire town named Witney which is on the edge of the Cotswolds has this week been declared as being infected with a local Tory council. It is feared that if voters are not careful at the polling station at the next general election, this outbreak could become a pandemic spreading to London and then the world.

A spokesperson for the WHO said this morning that "when Toryitis strikes a towns council, the local residents can be sure of cuts to their local services and a loss of massive amounts of green space such as allotments, playing fields, sports grounds and hay meadows.".

Other symptoms of local government becoming infected by Toryitis are a lack of democracy, slowness and lack of action at Town Hall.

Unfortunately, there is not yet a vaccine to prevent Toryitis, however residents are being urged not to vote Tory at the next elections to prevent the outbreak reaching the countries capital, London.

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