HOLY PIG! Lib Dem Boss Announces He’s ‘Fasting’ For Ramadan

ED Davey, the acting boss of The Liberal Democrats – you know, that irrelevant political party announced that he is ‘fasting’ for the holy month of Ramadan. 

The oddball, who studied at Jesus College in Oxford told his Twitter followers of his move… probably to attract the Muslim vote, but each to their own. 

He tweeted: “It’s an early rise for me today, as I prepare for my first ever fast for the holy month of Ramadan,” said Ed, 54.
