Labour deny checking Corbyn envelope post Oscars

The Labour Party has strenuously denied that it has gone back and checked the envelope containing the name of the winner of its last leader election in the wake of the Academy Awards farce.

"Jeremy Corbyn won that election fair and square and nobody has felt the need to go back and check anything," the party's election spokesperson stated firmly. When asked what the envelope-shaped object he was hiding behind his back was, he responded less firmly, "Well that's none of you damned business now, is it?"

The 89th Annual Academy Awards was marred when a film with two white stars (La La Land) was mistakenly announced as winner over the predominantly black-cast film Moonlight. The error was immediately spotted since it had been decreed that a black film had to win this year to prevent any more protests from the Black Oscars Matter movement.
