A few years ago the Daily Telegraph published on April Fools Day an article which set out the USA's plans for invading Canada. A joke I thought, but no, the USA has an invasion plan for every country in the world.
Last year the local paper, The Courier, published an article on 2nd April which intimated that Tunbridge Wells Borough Council had plans to demolish the civic complex and adjoining buildings to make way for a major redevelopment. It was for real, but the article set in train a sequence of events which led to the downfall of the Leader of the Council. For the residents of Tunbridge Wells and the Conservatives it has been one long running bad joke.
