Golfhead Competition Starts

Image
The Marlovian Golf Premier League, for some reason often known as "Golfhead" has started very recently. Already the customary disqualifications have occurred. Dancing wire-to-wire, as the saying goes: The Right Hon. George  Arbuthnot  demonstrates how to dance the Mulligan - using his niblick as a stand-in partner. Mister Arnold Muduncton was disqualified from the Marlovian Golf Premier League after the severed head of a child was discovered in his golf bag. His caddie was also disqualified after it was discovered he had partially eaten the nose. "It's disgraceful," the Right Hon. George Arbuthnot of the League Committee, told the press. "That such a thing happened in the Marlovian Golf Premier League! I mean, that head could've been used as a golf club, which meant there were technically 15 golf clubs in his bag! It's disgraceful, I tell you. You're only allowed fourteen! So we had no choice but to disqualify him." A short while a...

First Political Debate Takes Place

Image
The First 2019 Marlovian Political Debate took place last night, broadcast to fifty million viewers, though nobody actually watched it. While of course the Leaders of the Parties are Colonel Abuthnot, Lord Athlon and Raymond Donaldson, in 1895, an act was passed to create more diversity among the political candidates. Each party member has a female equivalent. This debate between Miss Fairfax and Miss Cardew for the position of Female Premier occurred at Miss Cardew's house over some food. The debate was overseen by a butler. Faturday Night Live attempted to parody the debate, but were irrelevantly gored by a passing rhinoceros. The campaign poster.

Liberty Merges with Death Party

Image
The Liberty Party's Leader, Colonel Henry Abuthnot, murdered several members of his family (his wife and two children) several weeks ago. He was condemned to five thousand years in prison, but the sentence was shortened by a full stop. He was released from prison on Monday. As he left, he was approached my a large mob of shady-looking gangsters, who appeared to be proposing a political coalition. It was, however, announced yesterday that the Liberty Party would be merging with the unpopular (but still with an amount of popularity large enough to be alarming) Death Party, run by the 'evil' Baron Boar. From now on, this new party shall be known as the Death and Liberty Party. Several other names, such as Death is Liberty, or Liberty is Dead, were proposed. Deathly Berty (Deathliberty) was also suggested, but ultimately rejected in case the party was sued by Deathly Bert, a well-known outlaw.  Baron Boar at the University for Anthropology, Drama and Osteology. ...

The Latest Political Party and Its Mysterious Leader

Image
No photographer has actually taken a picture of General Hid's face, apart from one who Hid sued for libel. General Harrison Hid, a wealthy and influential motivational speaker, has recently founded the United Rebellion Party. He believes that the government should initiate more rebellions, and maybe even some revolts. He is also strongly against the privatization of revolutions. "When the government starts a rebellion and then sells it privately to some revolutionary businessman looking for a way to make money, it's impossible for poor people to afford to join in the revolution, which really just defeats the point of the whole thing. Once some workers tried to rebel against the state, but ended up selling the whole revolt to a textile factory. The government, of course, should not have too much control over the way the revolution is run, because then the common people have to follow, under pain of legal prosecution, a set way of rebelling." General Hid will be r...
