A 350-year-old magician’s scroll containing a spell which promises to “get women naked” has sold for £22,000 ($28,215) at an auction house in the United Kingdom.

The 476-page manuscript is believed to have been owned by a magician who was part of the ‘Cunning Men of Essex,’ a group that was famous for practicing magic.

According to the supposedly mystical document, uttering the words ‘ala aymala’ could be enough to get a person to strip all of their clothes off. Creepy. Also inside the unknown wizard’s almanac are ancient recipes and even grievance guidance.

“This manuscript was penned by an Essex folk musician in the mid-17th century who was one of the 'cunning men of Essex',” auctioneer Charlie Howe, told the Mirror.

“There are recipes, spells and incantations to solve practical problems of people in rural areas and also more interesting conundrums such as how to make someone fall in love with you or get a girl to dance naked,” he added.

If you want to make a woman fall in love with you, the scroll instructs you to make her a nice broth made with pig bones. “Write her name on parchment and throw into the fire on which you cook a broth of herbs mixed with pig bones and share with the lady,” it says.

The arcane document was expected to sell for less than £1,000 so the auctioneers were stunned when a private collector forked out £22,000 to take it home.

Bakery blasted for selling ‘Gingerbread persons’

Storm in a teacake: Bakery blasted for selling ‘Gingerbread persons’

In yet another tedious example of modern ‘outrage culture,’ a bakery has come under fire for ‘bowing’ to the PC thugs and making their gingerbread confections gender neutral, however, the witless whinging may be decades late.

North Yorkshire-based Thomas The Baker has drawn a lot of unwanted attention online after Twitter fundamentalists highlighted the use of the term “ginger people” to refer to “gingerbread men,” a tea-time treat dating as far back as the 16th Century.

The popular bakery chain, which operates 30 shops across Yorkshire and the North East of Britain, also reportedly removed the smarties buttons, because people who identify as gender-neutral prefer zips, or something?

The rabbit hole of faux-outrage-cum-ironic tweeting only grew as the week stretched on.

However, the online conservative confectionary crusaders seemed oblivious to one crucial detail: the name change happened in 1983.

No more ‘fake news’: UK govt bans Trump motto from official documents

Published time: 23 Oct, 2018 13:29

The UK government has banned one of Donald Trump’s favourite phrases. The term ‘fake news’ will no longer be used on official documents after a recommendation from the Digital, Culture, Media and Sports Committee (DCMS).

MPs will be allowed to speak freely in parliament, however the term will not appear on official papers as it is “bandied around with no clear idea of what it means." The DCMS recommends the terms “misinformation” or “disinformation” instead.

“With such a shared definition, and clear guidelines for companies, organisations, and the Government to follow, there will be a shared consistency of meaning across the platforms, which can be used as the basis of regulation and enforcement,” it stated.

The ban was instigated following the recommendation of the so-called DCMS’ ‘fake news inquiry,’ that sat earlier this year following allegations of personal data misuse by tech companies and Russian interference in EU referendum.

The inquiry issued a preliminary report in July, containing 42 recommendations. The government reportedly accepted three of the recommendations and dismissed four others, including a change in the rules covering political spending online, which would limit the amount of money an individual can donate.

The report also gave 9 recommendations relating to “Russian influence in political campaigns,” much of which relates to the alleged dealings that UKIP-donor and Leave.EU chief Aaron Banks had with the Russian Embassy. Banks was interviewed by the DCMS before acrimoniously exiting, according to the report “to avoid scrutiny of the content of the discussions with the Russian Embassy.”

Previously, chair of the committee, Tory MP Damian Collins said he was “disappointed” in the response to the report. Collins hit out at the government’s consistent insistence that there was no evidence of Russian interference in UK elections. A claim also denied by the Kremlin.

“We need to see a more coordinated approach across government to combat campaigns of disinformation being organised by Russian agencies seeking to disrupt and undermine our democracy.

“The government's response gives us no real indication of what action is being taken on this important issue,” Collins said.
