BBC Scotlandshire tries its hand at satire

It has been pointed out recently that Scotlandshire, uniquely among countries, has no satire. In fact it is a dour, miserable place famed for having no humour, wit or banter at all.

While BBC Scotlandshire prides itself on being a serious news outlet, we feel this issue is of vital importance. Why do some – separatists mostly – become incensed to the point of tweeting by such innocuous ribbing as a saltire turned into a swastika?

So we have decided to address this issue by turning our own hands to some satire. We weren’t quite sure what satire entailed, so googled and found that it appears to involve things like suggesting the Irish should eat their babies. We couldn’t see the relevance to Scotlandshire so have taken some artistic license.

A BBC Scotlandshire satire piece:

Scotlandshire is a drain on the UK, especially its filthy poor people. In order to stop them being a burden and instead make them useful, children from Scotlandshire should be sold to wealthy Tories who can serve them as food at fashionable dinner parties.

No doubt, despite being based on one of the finest pieces of satire ever written, some humourless Natz will manage to take offense!
