The bugle, audio newspaper for a visual world.

Hello, Bugleus and welcome to issue 4244 of the Bugle Audio newspaper for a visual world.

I am Andy Zoltzmann and what you're about to hear is from the second of our Bugle 15th

15th anniversary live-buegel live shows at London's Nessus Square Theatre.

The show was performed on Saturday the 22nd of October, and in what is now the standard

style for all British topical comedy shows, it has become partially out of date before

it could even be blasted into your ears.

Since we recorded, Britain was rocked by the astonishing news that Boris Johnson would

not be running to re-become Prime Minister, thus breaking a long run of this country

doing the thing most absolutely damaging to itself politically.

Johnson claimed he had enough supporters to run for the leadership.

A hundred were needed under the hastily invented rules for picking a Prime Minister that

could serve the party plucked out of its fundament this time, but Johnson also added that he

would not be doing so essentially for the good of the country.

Obviously pretty much everyone called bullshit on part one, they claim that he had a hundred

bad news because...

Well, just because.

And everyone called, f**k sake mate, how can you even claim that the good of the country

has ever been a factory in your political career without doing one or more of giggling,

cackling and melting on part two.

So sections of this show were still labelled under the assumption that a toy Titanic would

have another girl at mating with the iceberg, which small mercifully will now not be happening.
