Traitors in the ranks


Our mole in the Senate has informed us that efforts are afoot to find the traitors in the ranks. We know this is a cosmetic exercise because there are rumours of underhand deals and wheels within wheels. We hear Mushaisaab suggested (tongue-in-cheek) that a Joint Investigation Team (yes, that dreaded JIT) should be established to ferret out the culprits. Capital suggestion, everyone chanted except for one naysayer. And that was the brilliant and burgeoning hope of the future, none other than Billy the Kid. We kid you not.

Dauntless daughter


We hear that the competent and capable former Premier, before being carted off to the NABbers’ custody, was offered a deal. Persuade The Man of Steel and his dauntless daughter to do a disappearing act, and to forget about politicking. The former Premier said that he couldn’t help with this demand. He was then advised that he should do a disappearing act himself, to avoid becoming a guest of the state. Once again, the former Premier shunned the offer and said that he would stay put and was prepared to do time in that infamous guesthouse.

Bedouin brethren


A fly on the wall of BG tells us that in the matter of the annexation of Kashmir by Monstrous Moody, The Great K has felt the “betrayal of the Bedouin brethren” most deeply. The fly says he is most cut up about the Gent whom he drove like a chauffeur to and from his aircraft, when he was persuaded to visit us, bearing a handout. “Yaar, look at them”, the fly quotes him as muttering.
