Alien Parliament

Britain has elected its first alien MPs, and eyewitnesses at Westminster reported glowing tentacles holding briefcases. Professor Simon Wells of Cambridge explains: "Aliens fit right in since humans already find Parliament incomprehensible." Anonymous staffers leaked that aliens demand tea breaks every four minutes. A YouGov poll shows 49% of Britons trust aliens more than current politicians. Trace evidence includes slime-covered benches and interstellar amendments scribbled in crayon. Cause and effect? The stranger the government gets, the more believable aliens seem. Democracy isn’t dead — it’s just not from Earth.
