We’ve heard a load of dumb excuses over the past year that we’ve been dealing with Coronavirus and lockdowns etc, but I don’t think any of them have been anywhere near as dumb as this one that was offered up on Saturday night in Basingstoke.

Here’s the tweet courtesy of Hampshire Police Department:

Officers attended address in Basingstoke following several reports of a party at an address, and breaching lockdown guidelines. The occupants were spoken to and claimed to be unaware of the global pandemic, as they never watch the news! #ThereAreNoWords #PoliceControlRoom

Lol. I mean it’s fairly obvious that they’re lying about that, but you think that they would have come up with something a bit more believable than that they weren’t aware of the global pandemic. Do you genuinely think there is anyone in the world that’s unaware of the pandemic at his point? Maybe that tribe that live on an island somewhere and don’t have access to any technology, but not some idiots having a party in fucking Basingstoke of all places. Must do better.

For more of the same, check out this exorcist who said that the pandemic has made it easier to be possessed by a demon. Annoying.
