I’m no fan of Guy Fawkes – the man is a menace. I bumped into him outside Tesco once and said, “You need to sort your life out, son.”
He just sat there holding a sign asking people to give him a penny – he wouldn’t even look at me. Bloody ignorant, actually.

Guy Fawkes' Plot was a False Flag operation. Follow the money, people! The fireworks manufacturers were behind it.

Guido Fawkes, or to give him his proper title, Xui Fa, was just a frontman for the Pete Tong, most feared of the Chinese Crime and Fireworks Syndicates.

My grandfather was on a ship that sunk on 5th November, he let off all the distress flares but the people on the other ships just went "Oooooh!”.#BonfireNight

I’m sure the UK will forgive the Brexiters for how they’ve fucked the country. Anyway, I’m off to burn the effigy of a man who’s been dead for 412 years.
