Unfortunately they are a prized delicately due to their scarcity. Our aggressive export trade floods the market, causing the price to plummet. Earth is left with massive debts from the purchase of unsold scone ingredients

Fortunately, we here end the galactic politics narrative to zoom in on the life of Zombie William Wilberforce, the famous undead anti-slavery campaigner.

Unfortunately, Zombie Will begins his career impoverished as a result of the Galactic Scone Crisis, and has to hand out pamphlets written by hand on paper bags

Fortunately the paper bags are a huge success - as people start using his bags for general every day use. It makes his campaign more effective than he could have possibly hoped spreading his message far and wide. Slavery is abolished. War is ended. 3 day working weeks are introduced and everyone gets given free ice creams on Saturday.

Unfortunately, jealous of our success and happiness, Zircon the Dark invades the Earth with an army of mechanised attack teapots. Not only that, but they're plastic teapots.

Fortunately, due to a terrible misunderstanding of Earth surface conditions in Zircon's military design department, the plastic melts on contact with boiling water, so the teapots are useless, and the invasion is immediately defeated.

Unfortunately, nobody trusts teapots any more all the same.

Fortunately, this means that when the Great Teapot Uprising comes, people are prepared, rather than taken by surprise.

Unfortunately, the brutal reprisals lead to the creation of an oppressed teapot underclass.

Fortunately their figurehead teapot: Percival Pumkinpants III is about as effective as a chocolate teapot at orchestrating uprisings - however quite good at gaining equality for oppressed underclasses.

Unfortunately witnessing teapots gain their rights- while they themselves are still ignored- provokes the sadly underrepresented teacups and mugs to armed rebellion

Fortunately, as each of them only has one arm and it's permanently fixed to their side, armed rebellion is not their forte.

Unfortunately, whilst attempting to rebel, quite a few of them slip down drains and cause blockages which causes a few puddles and leaks that are a frightful nuisance

Fortunately, among the leaks there is a leak of key information that reveals terrible corruption in the world's governments and forces several corrupt leaders to resign.

Unfortunately the ousted leaders decide to form a new motorbike gang. They take to the roads causing a tremendous racket in all the towns they pass through.
