Keepingthefaith.org.uk - Quick! While you can!

[beesonthewhatnow]

So, how long before we trash the new one then?

It's back

They've come back from the grave.

Last week there was an attempt by a few MPs to remove Tony Blair from office. It failed.

But we wanted to give Labour members and supporters their chance to have a voice in the debate. The future of the Labour Party, the future of the country, is just too important to be left to a few MPs.

Within a few days, thousands of ordinary party members and supporters had signed our petition calling on Tony Blair to be allowed to continue to serve in office, as he was elected to do in May 2005.

Tony Blair has now confirmed that he intends to stand down sometime next year, at a time of his own choosing.

Over the coming months, we hope to develop KeepingTheFaith.org.uk into an online community for progressive Labour Party members. If you would like to join us, please drop us a line.

I've emboldened the word "progressive" as it seems rather out of place here.

If you signed our petition and your name isn’t listed above, but you would really like it added, drop us a line. We just took a random selection.

Ah ha ha ha ha ha!

Gah it looks lame now...

Yeah they've moved to Wordpress, odd decision for this type of thing but anyway, this page made me laugh:http://www.keepingthefaith.org.uk/?page_id=4

And just to make sure spam trawlers get the email address: petition@keepthefaith.org.uk

 

[nwnm]

darn it - my longest lasting name has gone will try to get 'em back on.

people who've blogged about it -

Ridiculous simpering twat site

http://tailrank.com/posts/562949953927037/Galaxy_of_saboteurs_trashes_'Save_the_Blair'_petition

just found this

Why dosen't somebody set up a "GO NOW" website (I can't do it I don't know how) and get people to sign it setting out all Blair's non-achievements? It might help to tip him over the edge.

(why the fuck am I still awake/online at nearly half past two in the morning?)

I wonder if there's been talk of a coup Napoleon III style?

 

[Kid_Eternity]

Oh dear god! Comments aren't moderated! At em guys and gals!!!

 

[Loki]

Honestly, keepingthefaith looks so lame now it's an embarrasment rather than an asset to Blair. I'm sure some ten year olds could do a better job.

There's even a glaring typo on the front page ffs

The original petition, minus some of the hot-linked images, is archived here: We've not lost faith

It's still funny, and certainly worth scrolling down to the last message - 'All your bases belongs to us!!", because the image with that fucking cracks me up for some reason.

Heheh. Who knew, I'm still hosting that eleven years later.

Yes.

All appeared to go smoothly. Nearly a pageful of respectable-looking names appeared. Then at 9:27 am: "Stuart Bruce; Jonathan McShane; Gordon Brown; Idi Amin; Osama bin Laden; Abu Hamza..."

How do we know the time? Because that's when a message appeared on the bulletin boards at www.urban75.com* - the naughty corner of British politics - "Keepingthefaith.org.uk - Quick! While you can! - I've already added Gordon Brown..." By page four the denizens were holding an impromptu conversation - "Ming the Merciless; Ming the merciless (classic); Milliband rocks; Sir Ian Blair; Lorna, will you marry me?; Yes darling; Karen, I still love you too; You two timing cunt".

At 11:10 - after a further six pages of textual intercourse - the message went out - "It takes HTML!" And indeed the "petition" had been set up so users could enter anything at all into the "name" field. So they did, adding another seven pages of photos, particoloured curses and scrolling marquees. The site stuttered to a halt around 13:30. But for fans of digital graffiti it's all archived at We've not lost faith.

Yes.



Galaxy of saboteurs trashes 'Save the Blair' petition

God, I remember that day! It was such fun not just because of the opportunity to take the piss out of Blair, but also their rank stupidity in the way they failed to police the petition. Signed Wilf, aka J Thomas, aka Harry Roberts..

I've done that, and saved it as a PDF, I wanted to be able to upload it here but its 273kb

To think that 273kb used to be a big file back in 2006.
