Apologies if these links have already been posted. I did do a search, so I don't think so.
Carol to lead a taskforce looking at Maths teaching in the UK:

I doubt even Carol will be able to make the Tories' accounts add up.

I think that's a low blow by David Cameron, hiring Carol to get popularity. To be honest, I'd rather scrap the whole political party system and just elect Carol as our new PM.

Why not have her as God? Currently that position is vacant.

I think, if you check a certain facebook group, that I am God. *basks smugly like an omnipotent vain bastard*

Well, in today's world we have various religions- we can embrace multiculturalism by having Carol as God in whichever religion we want to be (needs a snappy name), and Kirk can be God in his group. In today's world we also have religious discrimination, so we also get a chance to offend Kirk! Killing two birds with one stone, I think.

'Twas in jest!
I'm assuming that Charlie is your equivalent to the Pope, Kirk?

I was joking about offending you and your religion- I'm actually very tolerant of other faiths, even ones that are non Carol-approved

OK seems like you're far too clever for me.

No no! What I meant to say was I don't actually mean everyone should offend you, and I was joking.

I didn't word it well, did I...

That'll show those people who call Cameron a populist political lightweight. With her years of experience in co-hosting an afternoon game show, Carol is the perfect person to improve British teaching methods. I'm normally rather pro-Carol, but her saying she felt she had to "give back" to maths made me want to vomit. I guess those who suggested Carol was betraying her political leanings when Ann Widdecombe was on the show have been proved somewhat correct.
I don't normally get a chance to whore one of my comedy articles, so why not take it, eh?

I'll have to update it.

Ooh, you wrote it? Well, all I have to say about parodying him is

I watched a documentary about John Mortimer (creator of Rumpole of the Bailey), after he died earlier this year.
In the background of one of the shots I noticed a sign up saying: "I used to be an atheist until I realised that I
am God".
Maybe you should use that as your signature, Kirk!
