Gordon's Recruitment Pyramid Scheme

London, UK - In a new employment initiative announced yesterday the UK government announced that it is to set up a chain of 200 recruitment agencies.

The recruiters will recruit more recruiters for more recruitment agencies until there is a recruitment agency in every small town and village in the land. "This will be huge" gushed pioneer recruiter Jim Woodenfoot, we will be recruiting recruiters for evermore, it's the saviour for us and the economy!"

The plan is eventually expected to employ 562,104 people directly, with another 2,106,382 employed in support services such as coffee, cakes, advertising and comfy chairs.

Challenged in the house by opposition leader David Cameron, that "This is bollocks, there is no wealth creation here for the nation." Brown, with his mouth thing, countered with, "Piss off, Cameron, the bankers got away with it for decades, I'll be long gone when this little puppy comes home to roost!".

The US government is taking a keen interest in the scheme and is rumoured to be reconsidering it's bailout of the big three auto companies in favour of a similar scheme based in and growing out of Detroit.
