BRITISH PRIME MINISTER BRINGING EXPENSIVE EASTER EGG GIFT FOR US PRESIDENT STOPPED AT CUSTOMS, AS EGG WOULD CONTINUE ON INTO EUROPEAN UNION TERRITORY WITH BIDEN, IN BREACH OF PROTOCOL.

THEY HAD egg all over their faces. Lots of it! They were the British Prime Minister and his entourage, who were refused entry to Northern Ireland by customs officers as a giant Easter Egg they were carrying, as a present for Joe Biden, hadn’t the proper paperwork attached.

“We were not allowed let a British Easter Egg into Northern Ireland,” said a Unionist customs official, “because its final destination is the Republic of Ireland, which is in the European Union. Them’s the rules. We don’t make ’em. And some of us sure as hell don’t like ’em.”

So the Prime Minister and his party were forced to eat the egg, which they did, passing pieces to anyone and everyone they could find. When the egg was eventually consumed, Sunak and his group were permitted to enter Northern Ireland with a warning that smuggling was an offence.

“They’re his bloody bloody rules,” remarked the official.
