REFORM MAYOR LANDS IN LINCOLNSHIRE FROM SPACE, WHICH IS STILL CLOSER THAN YORKSHIRE

Dame Andrea Jenkyns made her grand entrance at the Great Exhibition of Lincolnshire on a smoke-filled driverless bus, in a spacesuit, clutching a helmet, as speaking and dancing robots looked on. Local trade unionists would now like to know what the bash cost, since last year's reportedly came to about £69,000. Houston, we have a receipt.

Greater Lincolnshire mayor Andrea Jenkyns arrived at the Great Exhibition of Lincolnshire on a smoke-filled driverless bus wearing a spacesuit and holding a helmet; unions want the cost disclosed (2025 event about £69,000); her Yorkshire residence was previously questioned.

Our short summary of the original – read the full report for context. Everything above it is satire.
