Tonights breaking news is that money has ceased to exist, the government
are asking people to keep working on a voluntary basis for the time
being and not to panic....

.....anyone whose work does not invlove anything useful can take the
rest of their lives off, or help out the people who do real work and
don't count beans all day and call it work....

please note any attempts to go on paying bills will be pointless....

please do not fill up your shopping trolleys with more goods than you
need.....
