Elon Musk tweeted on his official account on Sunday that Twitter would be changing its logo to an “X” and that all the birds will be disappearing from the platform.
Yeah unfortunately for MI5 the reintroduction of red kites across much of the UK has rendered them less effective with attacks being common. They also mostly use the BBC Radio 4 longwave transmitter to navigate and that’s being shut down next year along with the rest of the BBC’s AM output so they’re developing an alternative called SEAGULL: Self-Extracting Audio Guided by Ultra-Light Links where residential and commercial WiFi networks are hijacked to guide the mechanical avians instead of the centralised transmitter system. This system has its detractors however and occasionally they’ve locked onto train WiFi and immediately failed.
They were originally going to use mechanical geese for this task but political interference meant that seagulls were used instead so that the rapid decline of the fish and chip industry isn’t blamed on Tory economic policy. Unfortunately people are rightly suspicious of seagulls and this has thus far limited the success of operation SEAGULL. The authorities are hoping that operation ‘drop several hundred kilograms of LSD into a reservoir on the basis it’s not even the worst pollution Thames Water are up to that day’ will improve matters.
Don’t you know? The bird’s aren’t real!
They are really drone replicas installed by the U.S. government to spy on Americans!
Sorry to break the illusion, but BIRD is an acronym. British Intelligence Recording Device.
Rule Britannia.
While that acronym is true, the British don’t actually operate that many BIRDs, they mostly manufacture them and export to other countries.
I hear that almost 2/3rds of British manufacturing is devoted to BIRDs that are earmarked for foreign government use.

Well, I’m here for the fanfic about British intelligence gathering devices.
