Breaking Private Eye News

[Hymie]

It’s good to see the national press appear to be taking my advice and publishing articles directly from Private Eye.

This article has so many similarities with the words in the PE article (in the current edition) – I wonder whether they will sue for plagiarism; although at least the DM did not claim they had assisted this poor fellow in any way to get justice.

PE has been covering this for some time; Geoff Monks said ‘I want to publically thank Private Eye for following this story over the years. My admiration, debt and gratitude to the magazine is only equalled by my comfort that such an organ exists in our society. What a treasure the Eye is.’

MONEILL45 says that PE should be compulsory reading for every person over the age of 12.

Despite being a subscriber for at least 30 years, I would disagree with this.

Imagine TTT was to get hold of a copy and discovered what a complete sh|t Boris Johnson is – I think he would become deeply depressed and may even top himself.
