Man Wanted To Shoot Prince Charles

[Hymie]

I saw this headline on the BBC’s news page, and thought it an offer to a contract killer.

Uneasy lies the head that waits to wear the crown

[Old_Geezer]

Did you apply for the job ?

[wolf63]

Is the job not suitable for girls?

"Jurors have been told he plotted a mass cyanide attack as he felt "belittled" for being white and ginger-haired."
If only he'd went to Ireland or Scotland. Ginger hair would go unremarked in both.

[Hymie]

It’s not Chris Evans by any chance?

[Jomlett]

Charles will want to shoot the messengers tomorrow...his secret letters to British government ministers expressing frank views that the government has warned could undermine his political neutrality will finally be published tomorrow.

[woofgang]

Belittled for being white and ginger haired....so he hasn't looked at Prince Harry then?

[Gromit]

I read it that way too. I thought of applying for a split second :-)

Vote UKIP, their prospective members will take out a rival - wit N. Hampshire last week.....

All websites do this, and BBC news is obviously not above it. They like you to click on things, so they put up a link that says 'ROD HULL'S EMU ACCUSED OF GAY SEX WITH KIM KARDASHIAN'S PENGUIN ON THE MOON', which you obviously can't resist clicking on, and when you do it's nothing to do with Rod Hull, Emu, Kim Kardashian, gay sex, penguins, or the moon.

^yep. The legacy of Buzzfeed, unfortunately.

[sandyRoe]

Ludwig, there's no smoke without fire. I always though Emu had something of the night about him. A shady character not adverse to using violence on TV interviewers who might have probed too deep.

[1ozzy]

If I were an emu with someones arm up me Sandy I would consider it "probing too deep".

[sandyRoe]

I believe the term's, '***'. Emu didn't seen to mind. He was clearly a creature mired in sin and depravity of the worst kind.

[THECORBYLOON]

"someone's arm up me Sandy..." not heard it called that before.

[1ozzy]

"" He was clearly a creature mired in sin and depravity of the worst kind.""
And hence became famous earning his "handler" lots of money.
What a life ;-)
