PRESTON MAN FURIOUS AFTER NEIGHBOUR ‘STEALS’ SNOW FOR SNOWMAN

A Preston man has been left fuming after accusing his neighbour of stealing snow from the very edge of his garden to build a snowman.

“I saw him scoop it up like it was nothing,” the man said. “That snow fell on my lawn.”

The neighbour claimed the snow was “basically on the line” and “going to melt anyway”, but tensions remain high, with the snowman now being described as “unofficial” and “built on stolen snow”.

BREAKING NEWS

In a shocking turn of events that political experts are calling “deeply confusing but oddly efficient,” Congo prince Pikunni Takanina has been declared the new President of Preston following a landslide vote by his fiercely loyal supporters.

Polling stations across Preston reported unprecedented scenes as voters arrived chanting, waving homemade banners, and insisting they were “100% sure this is how democracy works now.” By midday, turnout had exceeded expectations, largely due to free jollof rice, mysterious royal seals, and the promise of “big plans involving pigeons and better weather.”

Prince Pikunni, now President Pikunni, addressed crowds outside Preston Bus Station, pledging unity, prosperity, and “a bold new future where Preston leads the world in vibes.” He concluded his speech with the now-official rallying cry:

“Hail Pikunni!”

Local council leaders have neither confirmed nor denied the legitimacy of the election, but one source admitted, “He had more supporters than we did, and they looked very organised.”

At time of writing, Preston is awaiting further instructions from the new administration, while residents have been advised to remain calm, loyal, and possibly practice saying Hail Pikunni with confidence.
