Gordon Brown has strongly denied unleashing the ‘forces of hell’ on Alistair Darling, after the Chancellor revealed that a 3 headed dog kept him indoors for an entire weekend.
Mr Darling said No 10 and the Tories had given him “a weekend you could have done without” after he had forecast the worst recession for 60 years, in 2008.
Mr Brown told GMTV ” I would never instruct Cerburus to inflict destruction upon Mr Darling. Anyway, if I did summon him up then who do you think would be guarding the gates of Hades? People would be crossing the river Styx, willy nilly. It’s just not workable.”
Mr Darling claimed in an interview that the 3 headed hound had made a mockery of his pogonias and that it took him 2 hours to coax his cat down from a cherry tree by his shed.
Celebrity gardener, Alan Titchmarsh was sympathetic to Mr Darling’s plight. “The hounds of hell can wreak havoc on flower beds and on other types of landscaping plants. If it happens again I’d suggest Jumping at the dogs, making a loud noise and squirting them with a small spray bottle filled with water. Do this whenever you see the dogs in your flower bed and they will learn not to go in that area.”
A Conservative spokesman dribbled: “The fact that Gordon Brown is prepared to unleash a mythological beast to open up a world of devastation in his chancellor’s garden, speaks volumes. Surely Mr Brown should put on his gardening gloves and take up his trowel and right his wrongs!”
