Contribute to a worthy cause
I’ve been searching down the back of the sofa for spare change, going through the pockets of old coats and going without a meal or two just so I can help pay for the renovation of Buckingham Palace.
I’ve also cancelled my monthly contribution to various charities. Forget them, this is far worthier a cause than protecting cats, dogs and kids – they’re so ungrateful anyway.
Forget the homeless, they should either get a job or find more creative ways to beg. Forget the elderly, they’ve had their time, now they’re just a burden. Forget the government’s austerity measures that are destroying the lives of the most vulnerable in society – vulnerability is no excuse!
No, we should all dig deep and pay for any work that the royals need doing. I will be offering to kill myself and donate to them the insurance payout.
Gawd bless em an keep em.
