Bibby Stockholm Syndrome

Like Stockholm Syndrome, but more affordable to the UK taxpayer.

Cost to the State further reduced by the confirmed presence of Legionella. All being well the same ought to reduce (in the most permanent way) those suffering with Bobby Stockholm Syndrome by c. 10%.
Prime Minister: ‘How can we sell Bibby Stockholm Syndrome to the base?’

Home Secretary: ‘Simple! Unlike that woke nonsense “Stockholm Syndrome”, Bibby Stockholm Syndrome has a 10% chance of resulting in the genuine death of the captive!’

Prime Minister: ‘You’ve done it again!’
