Clairvoyant makes prediction: 'Brexit MIGHT NOT BE TOO BAD!'

Last night, a clairvoyant from Essex (the old ancient home of many witches) made an important prediction: "Britain MIGHT not become bankrupt after Brexit! Trade MIGHT go ahead, after all."

Many people- educated from the University of Life- 'scoffed' and 'berated' such a notion, 'Of course it'll be bad. Every newspaper agrees: we're all DOOMED!'

Meanwhile, a few tories 'really hope' that Teresa May- or Boris- can 'hash up' some sort of deal before Christmas. "Boris has the power to draw up a deal. Europe- particularly the Germans- take him VERY seriously."

Therefore, we should not be too morbid: even though movement across Europe, skilled workers in the uk and trade will be significantly reduced, holidays to Skegness, and Walton on the Naze will become extremely popular. Holidays will be alot easier- no one will need to eat any foreign food, they can have chips morning, noon and night!'

'We play Rock, Paper, Scissors!' admits BBC weather man.

Yesterday, a 'devastating' fact was exposed that could shock 'weather enthusiasts': the weather men at the BBC use a children's 'guessing game' to make important decisions about the weather.

Steve Pain, chief of all things weather at the BBC, made the serious leak when giving a presentation about the high- tec weather equipment to a group of students on work experience. Mr Pain didn't realise his microphone wasn't turned off when he spoke to his secretary standing next to him 'this is a doss!' he was heard saying. 'Tell Geoff from I.T that it's his turn to play Rock, Paper, Scissors!'

According to our unnamed source, before the BBC broadcast their weather programme, Mr Pain plays rock, paper, scissors with the caretaker, the window cleaner, even the canteen staff. Each side will hazard a guess as to what the weather might do and then they play. Whoever wins then has their weather prediction broadcast to the British public.

The Big Pickle News can exclusively reveal that the queen was so 'enraged' by this scandal that she couldn't 'bring herself to drink her tea.' This is serious. Updates will be coming soon.

Mother makes 'shocking' revelation that she NEVER feels guilty!

Shock waves have been sent through the British public, and around the world, after a mum in Essex claims she DOES not suffer from the notoriously common 'Mummy Guilt', (when everything you say and do MUST be wrong!)

'I don't feel guilty!' stated the mother in question, who appeared on BBC's Question Time: 'I do my very best as a parent. If I make a mistake, I try and change it. I can't do any more!'

This has sparked a flourish of outcries from Mumsnet. 'Who is this crazy lady?' said one.
'EVERY mother feels guilty. That's why we blog, FFS!' said another.

Meanwhile, DADS R US- a charity willing to listen to dads who find parenting 'traumatising' have insisted, 'every good parent feels guilty. We always feel bad when we go on long 'Lads Weekends'- we ALWAYS worry how the wife is coping with the kids. That's why we never answer our texts!'

The DADS R US website has been hacked- investigations are ongoing because several mothers have owned up to it on their Facebook pages.

'Strange' man found searching in a library and NOT on Google.

'Strange' man found searching in a library and NOT on Google.

The police were called to a library in Maldon, Essex, because a man was exhibiting 'strange' and 'unexpected' behaviour as he walked past the computer stations: he didn't get out his phone; he headed straight for a book shelf. 'This was the most bizarre thing I have ever seen,' stated a young librarian.

Many people witnessed the man's actions. 'At one point, EVERYONE had looked up from their phone. I thought he might be sleep walking,' said one eyewitness.

Another man, Dave Eldgit, who is a regular visitor to the library, and over sixty, and therefore 'expert' in all things OLD, made this statement, 'back in the day, people WOULD ACTUALLY read books. They'd turn the pages with no bother at all.'

The man who picked out a book insists that he'll 'have his say' but is 'engaged' in talks with his lawyer over the high court case that he is 'mentally unwell': 'it was only because I left my phone at home, so I thought I might as well read a book.'

Meanwhile, the archbishop of Canterbury believes the man is 'a sign': he made a statement this evening: 'this man is sending a powerful message- encouraging people to look at the beautiful world around them and NOT through a smart screen! We should all aspire to be this man.'

'I don't have hay fever!' says smug man who has no need to carry tissues.

Across the UK, thousands of people are now suffering from itchiness, bulbus eyes and runny noses- but the worst thing about hay fever? 'the smug people who don't have it,' states hay fever Guru, Neil Dong.

Mr Dong has studied pollen for over a decade and believes that symptoms are bought on by 'rage' when you see someone next to you who has a dry nose and who can breathe without sounding like a donkey.

Clive Andrews, from Maldon in Essex, was sent to A&E after his wife threw a vase of flowers at him with 'witch-like venom'. The woman's 'bestie' stopped us to comment on what happened: 'when WILL men listen? Giving Sharon flowers gives Sharon hives! Plus, her mouth swells so much that she just can't speak, sometimes for a whole week. He does it every year- always on his birthday!'

Clive Andrews has been hailed a 'clever man' by MOSS (Men Of Sensational Substance) whose spokesperson has 'kicked himself' for not thinking of this himself. 'Hay fever doesn't have to be a BAD thing!' he says, somewhat gleefully.

'I'm doing great with my detox!' says shortempered miserable person.


Across the UK thousands of people have stuck to their diet in order to be ready for their 'beach body' but there is one problem...they have become 'miserable buggers!' say some of the finest Weight Loss Reps in the country.

Fitness instructor and dietician, Ed Big-Balls, leaked 'important revelations' through his Facebook page during a drunken night out, 'people who stick to a strict diet routine are f**king boring!' he ranted at 2.05 am. His comments have sparked controversy, particularly as he earns his money trying to convince his clients that one small rasher of bacon and half a lettuce leaf will fill them up.

Emma Dud, a client of the dietician in question, has stated 'all food starts to look green. You start hating everyone!'

Meanwhile, Bob Margate, the man who leads the organisation FAT (Full and Tubby) states: 'this is why we never diet. Fat people are jolly for a reason!'

However, many people on detox are 'angry' that they've been criticised publicly. One strict dieter posted on Facebook, 'if I want to be grumpy on celery then that's my problem. Noone else's!'

However, according to this lady's husband, it can become your problem when 'the farts are so bad' the window of your bedroom is 'permanently' open.

'What do you do all day?' says imbecile husband who does not value his life!

A man has committed the 'ultimate dad-sin': he asked his stay-at-home wife the most hated question- 'so what EXACTLY do you do all day?'

Mark Ter-watz claims that he was then 'verbally attacked' for over an hour. 'She recited a list and didn't pause for breath. I think she might have burst my ear drum!'

The Society of the Prevention of Twatty Sayings (SPOTS) 'insists' that Mark Ter-watz got his 'just desserts!' A spokesmen spoke exclusively to The Big Pickle News: 'when your partner says something like what have you done all day? they clearly have no more than three brain cells. Therefore, one has to beat them down in order for them to comprehend the enormous list required to run a home and to keep everyone alive!'

Mark Ter-watz and his wife have been 'reconciled'- he bought her some Prosecco.
