A row has blown up here in the last few days regarding funding for political parties. It has emerged that the party currently in government has accepted loans from wealthy individuals, worth millions of pounds, and then subsequently nominated those individuals for peerages (OBEs, knighthoods and the like).

There was a man on the radio this morning talking about the published accounts and saying that it seems to be impossible to determine where this money has gone. Then he clearly said “it seems to have passed into a parallel universe!”

So now we know. Not only are the aliens running things, but as well as passing socks and popular supermarket products back to their home planet, they are making off with our money too! Where will it end?
