    "Not flash, just Gordon"

    How many people actually get the reference here? I must admit it was a while before I realised it myself.

    I wonder if the Tories will adopt the Jilted john song for their party political broadcasts?

    O I C.

    Thats so bad.

    Is Gordon still pretending he popped into the world the day before he became PM, and wasn't part of the Labour government for the last 10 years, and so has no responsibility for anything that happened during that time?

    No, Gordon is now pretending he was a member of Mrs Thatcher's cabinet in the 1980s.

    It must have been. She wore pink, unless of course I have become colour blind in the last few days!

    Michael Howard could easily have been Ming the Merciless but he's too busy babysitting Cameron
    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    Surely you mean Michael Howard could have been The Count in Sesame Street?

    I like Gordon Brown. As they put it on Mock The Week a while ago, he makes the cretinous Cameron, the purported anti-Blair superweapon, suddenly look like a carthorse in the age of steam

    My niece makes Camerloon look stupid and she's only three months old. She's just learnt to roll onto her tummy which is a damn site more entertaining than "call me Dave".
