Herewith a citizen-centred version of the New Year's speech bestowed upon our wretched selves by the Glorious Successor, Comrade Brown, rendered not less intelligible than the original by having been processed through an online cut-up engine then converted into human-sounding talky-talk via a free text-to-speech software program. All Health and Safety procedures, regulations governing Equality, Diversity and Multidigital Intercomplexiarity; and EU Directives on Necessary Innovation and Control of Resistant Individual Creativity been complied with. The work also adheres to the voluntarily imposed guidelines required by the Dynamically Cohesive Plurally-Centred Non-Offensive Communities Unit. But that's enough of that shit.
