Labour Resignation
I loved this Number Crunching 'stocking filler' which featured in a recent edition of Private Eye - the UK's best (and only) fortnightly satirical magazine.
"NUMBER CRUNCHING
19 YEARS
John Prescott served as (unpaid) Privy Counsellor before resigning in protest at failure to take action against excess of tabloid newspapers
6 MONTHS
John Prescott has served as (well-paid) columnist in tabloid newspaper, without feeling the need to resign even when four people were arrested on suspicion of phone hacking at his paper, the Sunday Mirror."
Politics is often described as 'war without guns' - but you've got to admit the way that certain people behave also makes for some great belly laughs.
