LONDON: Following a record-breaking streak of own goals, unforced U-turns, and policy pratfalls, Prime Minister Keir Starmer is set to announce a brand-new Cabinet lineup — this time featuring actual muppets.

Downing Street has today unveiled The Bungle Brief™ — a “bold new vision for a Britain that no longer understands what it’s doing, but feels very strongly about it anyway.”
The Brief, which sets out the government’s vision for a more inclusive, less coherent society, includes the following plans, some of which have already been implemented:
