Alistair Darling addressed Harriet Harman’s Class-based Sewing Circle in Manchester today, blathered about “bumps” ahead “on a difficult road”. and again failed in his impersonation of a sentient human being. When will Labour learn? We’re sick of them. We want rid of them. Their words mean less than nothing. So shut up, Mr Chancellor. As The Jam once sang: “Whatcha trying to say that you haven’t tried to say before? / You’re just another red balloon with a lot of hot gas / Why don’t you f*** off?”
I can’t even summon up the bile to inveigh against these people anymore. Lampooning them is no longer fun. Labour is hurting our country. Satisfying though it is for Tories to excoriate bumbling ministers, we have to stop. It’s becoming undignified to keep kicking this dying, flea-ridden, three-legged dog as it lies whimpering on the ground. We should refocus our attention to getting a Conservative government elected and putting the Great back in front of Britain.
Anyway, enough of that depressing stuff! In the absence of much of political worth to discuss, I provide you with a link — for your right-wing delight — to an easy-peasy quiz on Margaret Thatcher. It’s easier than a Women’s Studies degree, but still a bit of fun for Thatcher buffs.
