In other news, a hitherto unsuspected evolutionary throwback was discovered on the Brexitic Cliffs of Dover. Scientists are baffled by the vaguely burger-patty-shaped, primitive single-celled organism which consists almost entirely of carbohydrates and fat held together by gristle, and which genetic analysis suggests is of British origin, finding the European ecosystem too hostile to bear as it thrives in an atmosphere of used cooking fat and stale urine.

The specimen, preserved in cheap alcohol, following recent conventions has been named Martinus Imbecilicus Wetherspooni.
