Overhaulin'

Did anyone see this report in paper today?

Asylum seekers hide in Blair car? 4 Asylum seekers sneaked into Britain on the back of a lorry carrying Tony Blair's new official car. The police found the men hiding in the vehicles container, after it was delivered to a cop garage in South London. They police said they had a worse suprise when we saw how they had arrived, The modified £100,000 BMW has bulletproof glass reinforced windows, and was ordered from Mercedes HQ by the Met Police counter terrorism group. The lorry and container should have been impregnable said a source. It looks like more than red faces around, the car has been returned to BMW with the missive that it's security had been compromised. It has been reported the men are claiming political asylum. This has to a be good story for Have I got News for You or Mock the week. I hope someone picks it up, funniest thing i have heard for ages. I bet Tony Bliar isn't too pleased Charley, exactly my point, Irony and i find it hard to understand anyone who doesn't see that. Apologies one and all i was laughing, so got one thing wrong. Should say BMW, not Mercedes, thanks for pointing it out. I would like to say i reported this straight from newspaper report and if none is true, it's still given us a good laugh. Perhaps we will know more later today, i hope that it is picked up. Funny story. someone else just posted similar notice, so must be some truth in it, ha ha. ha

1. A good story, well done.
2. Saw the report - would very much like to know who is picking up the tab for the car!
3. egg on their faces.
4. Why is it so enjoyable seeing all the security stuff we are forced to live with every day are useless?
5. , I did not see it. I do not have a morning paper except sometimes a Metro freebee and it has not been on the radio. My guess would be that if it is true then it would be played down. The Gods don't like to be embarrassed.
6. let boris have the story,he will have us all in stitches-priceless.
7. There is a certain irony to this isn't there lol
8. Ha Ha is this correct - what an embarrassment!!!
9. that is not funny to blair,but now he knows what it is like to occupy someone elses property.
10. Ha hA, that says it all, ridiculous
11. A BMW from Mercedes HQ? Doesn't sound right that bit
12. LOL, wonder who paid for it. Do you get a company when you leave. LOL
13. Couldn't write it could you!
14. Hehe - its good to see Blair making headlines again. Now all he needs is peace in the Middle East - more achievable than keeping asylum seekers out of the UK I think!!!
15. LOL! Don't know whether this is true or not but it gave me a good laugh anyway! Having said that ... If this is tight terrorist and immigration control works ... Then we have something to worry about!
16. No I haven't Sean that article until I read it on yahoo answers.
