Many a true word is spoken in jest ....

The News Thump satirical website has a spoof story here which begins as follows:

"Labour shake-up completes purge of voters from the party

The Labour Party has successfully purged itself of a radical right-wing group calling itself ‘the electorate’ this week.

The group, composed of ‘voters’, were considered too right-wing to fit with the future direction of the party and ‘had to go’.

The party leadership had a long internal debate over the matter before concluding that the general population doesn’t share their aims and principles and under the circumstances it’s best just to part ways."
