April Fools gags have to be believable.

Polar bears in Scotland. Had my kids going for over an hour.

Mind you, the biggest laugh I had today was was watching Trump walk out of an Exec Order signing ceremony, on live tv, having forgotten to sign the orders because he was flustered by reporters questions...
That was an April fool gag, right?

Right up there with the government's faces when the EU stuck in the clause about Gibraltar, (which a Lords commitee warned them about) but anyway...

I thought the Osborne one was a bit weak personally, although it looks like a stroke of genius compared to UKC's efforts, they seem to have forgotten that the gags should be at least initially believable.

Although Osborne is renowned for his many jobs almost as much as his transformation from a chubby middle aged man to a 5:2 diet following, Ceasar haircut sporting man of fashion. Unless it was too believable...

*old man alert* fuck me - is there such a thing as a Caesar haircut?

Does it have a knife sticking out of the back?

Having a knife sticking out of your back is quite the fashion in the Conservative party; it'll usually have Gove's fingerprints all over it...

I particularly liked this one

A lot of effort went into it, possibly more than return on the gag.

Genetically 50% of him did it. So at least he's made it past the horn now...

Working on an animation in which Shark ejaculates onto an image of Malham and a swarm of Craig David-headed creatures appear and climb all the routes (possibly while he falls to his knees weeping) I’d imagine.

It was Lee the Younger that did it. Expecting an ascent from Lee the Even Younger first.
