The engagement of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle is just the spirit-booster the country needs. Winston Churchill said the Queen’s marriage to Prince Philip, 70 years ago, was a flash of colour in the grey, post-war years. And the same goes for Harry’s engagement.

Brexit worries, Trump worries ... Just for a moment the clouds lift and a shaft of sunlight blasts through the gloom.

This joke doesn't even work. If he doesn't know what Viagra is, the reader has to assume the woman bought it for him. This means she obviously wants sex, and lots of it. So why is she running away? Doesn't make sense.

This Mack-person seems to not think like a real human would, suspicious.

Which makes the only reasonable explanations either that she's gone to get medical help, which would be entirely reasonable, because sildenafil overdose can have some serious effects, or that Mac thinks that either "Viagra makes you horny, and drugs just work on an additive scale, so he's going to turn into a crazed sex beast through overdose" or "Viagra makes your dick swell, so taking six of them is going to give him a 4 foot donger plus being aforementioned sex animal."

Being Mac, it's going to be one of the latter.

Also possible is that she bought the viagra for another lover and she just doesn't want to have sex with her husband.

Mac definitely didn't think of this possibility though.

She bought the viagra for her own penis, and is rushing to get more so she can keep up with her husband's impending monster dong. I'm glad to see Mac of all people introducing transgender inclusivity to his poo poo gags about married shagging.

Definitely best take.

Although in that case the viagra might be entirely irrelevant and her husband's just had all her oestrogen pills and she's poo poo mad she doesn't have anymore.

Broadly speaking you are right and it all seems a but dodgy but on the other hand the people of this country need the government to collapse ASAP to get a competent and compassionate team in place at Downing Street yesterday.

May losing both her close ally Green and the idiot Brexit Minister Davis would be a huge blow. Especially as it'd mean Davis on the backbenches, being an obstructionist like other Brexit fanatics.
