Royal Mail created a stamp with a picture of the Prime Minister of Great Britain ... Gordon Brown. However the stamp was not sticking to envelopes. This enraged the Prime Minister, who demanded a full investigation.

After a month of testing and spending of £1.1million, a special commission presented the following findings:

1. The stamp is in perfect order.

2. There is nothing wrong with the adhesive.

3. People are spitting on the wrong side of the stamp
