Britain’s Got A Chancellor.

I'm taking a gamble that Darling is going to have to go soon.

Britain's Got A Chancellor.

Gordon Brown and Harriet Harman are sat behind the table as judges both with a big buzzer in front of them.

George Osbourne walks out.

Harriet: Hello my love, who are you.

George: I'm George. George Obsbourne.

Harriet: What's the dream sweetheart?

George: To become the next Chancellor of the Exchequer.

Gordon: Let's hear it then.

George: I have a strong understanding of fiscal dynamics which is essential in these challenging times.

Gordon presses his buzzer and looks angry.

George: I have the ability to construct policies to generate revenue and provide a positive stimulus to the whole UK economy. Also I'm a multi millionaire – no need to fiddle my expenses.

Harriet presses her buzzer.

George looks disappointed

Gordon: Listen son, do you think that's what we want from a Chancellor?

George: Yeap.

Gordon: Look, I need a f**king pleb, a f**king halfwit, someone who I can put the blame on – you really didn't pull that off I'm afraid.

Harriet: Look, I just don't think you put enough effort in to that, I mean you don't even have a set of comedy eyebrows on do you? So it's a no from me.

George: Hang on a minute, I can fart the Abba hit ,Money, Money, Money while shoving a watermelon up my nose.

Gordon grins.

Gordon: Now you're talking sense.

It's going to look like I'm being nice because you were earlier, but this really made me laugh - you should send it off to all the topical sketch peeps.

Definitely my favourite of yours so far. Lots of nice touches.

:)

Cheers Jane!

It's always nice to be nice.
