New Measure to Increase Tory Numbers
james82, 16:47h
As membership of the Conservative and Unionist Party, also know as the Tory Party plummets ever faster downwards, Tories leaders are considering ever more desperate measure to massage party membership numbers (less than 134,000 now, 2.9 million in the days of Winston Churchill).
Among measures being considered are:
Offering free membership to former Tories dead for less than 10 years.
Free automatic membership for pensioners who are also sufferers of Alzheimer's disease, they are naturally free to opt out.
Long distance membership for Romanians and Bulgarians who promise never to tread British soil.
Otherwise the future for the Tory party looks bleak. There are just only so many Hooray Henries, overpaid bankers, money launders, property speculators and oligarchs to go around.
