A Topical British Fuel Joke


A friend of mine had to go to London today, but the traffic came to a dead halt just by Hammersmith. She thought to herself, "Wow, this traffic seems worse than usual. Nothing's even moving."

She noticed a police officer walking back and forth between the lines of cars so she rolled down her window and asked, "Constable, what's the hold up?" Constable Plod replied: "The Prime Minister is just so depressed about Mo Mowlam's resignation, the fuel blockades, his kids getting into trouble here and abroad, and his general dive in the popularity stakes, that he stopped his motorcade in the middle of the road and he's threatening to douse himself in the last bit of petrol in the Prime-Ministerial Jaguar and set himself on fire. He says his cabinet hates him, Gordon Brown's not even talking to him, he doesn't have the money to pay for Cherie's next shopping trip for Baby Leo, and the Royal Flight has refused to provide the transport for his Christmas holiday. I'm walking around taking up a collection for him."

"Oh really? How much have you collected so far?"

"So far only about three hundred gallons - but a lot of folks are still siphoning."
