Keir Starmer's time is up

[ska invita]

Seriously considering voting spunking cock next election at this rate.

Be like Keir: Abstain

Boris says "you vacillate, we vaccinate" and I want to cheer. When they're dooking it out in the commons it's hard not to see Boris - Boris!! - as the more serious politician. Everything Sir Keith says feels superficial, "playing the long game" etc.

Blimey, I never thought I'd live to see the day when the tories were attacking Labour for being petit-bourgeois vacillationists.

In many ways it's a relief to live in a solid blue constituency, that has been blue since it's inception, I'm under no illusions my vote matters a sparrows fart

Abstain

Guess that's the natural result of a spunking cock...

Dyk: Small birds such as sparrows don't fart. Their gastric gasses get absorbed into their bodies.

Could there be any more disturbing front cover than an infinite regress of a grinning Tony Blair opening the Sun with his face on the front?

The more you know.


So my vote doesn't exist

Seeing the Neo-Nazi Daily Express backing ZanNu Liar Bore PF in 2001 is a grim reminder of that interview where Paxman asked Tony B Liar if he'd heard of any of the other of that nonce Desmond's publications, including 'thin and wriggly'.

Party Balance. God knows what it means. Hung Parliament?

Thanks. That's amazing.

ZanNu Liar Bore PF
Tony B Liar

I was rather hoping we'd seen the back of these. I think the use of these and similar terms may be the worst thing about the Blair era. Second worst after the war anyway.

With respect, I think you’ve missed how genius those terms were. I know it looks like people just didn’t know how to spell Tony Blair or New Labour, but in actual fact, both are deliberate puns, and fiendishly clever ones I might add. 'Tony B Liar' is an anagram of "Tony Blair" and highlights his propensity to lie.

As for ZaNuLiar Bore PF, well, you'd have to be familiar with the politics of the period. Let me explain. Around that time Zimbabwe was in the news quite a bit and its ruling party 'Zanu PF' was infamous for its authoritarianism and corruption. ZaNuLiar Bore PF cleverly compares New Labour to Zanu PF! We can leave aside the blatant racist undertones of the comparison for a minute and just appreciate it for the cutting edge satire that it was.

We didn't have 'memes' back then, people had to get creative with word play to drive home important political messages.

Another rare intervention from Tonty. We need to cut Starmer some slack for being a Tory.

Tony Blair says 'cut Starmer some slack' over tax comments

Exclusive: former Labour leader says the public has no interest in ‘mouthing off’ as if times were normal

[NoXion]

I mean Tony Blair does have point. Starmer isn't a war criminal like he is. He "merely" covered for war criminals.

 

[steveseagull]

Thermo nuclear war!!! WOOHOO

 

[Humberto]

He always looks like he is apologising.

 

[Shechemite]

In a ‘I’m sorry you feel that way’ kind of way

 

[BobDavis]

If Blair & also Mandelson are seriously getting involved in this then I would think there is some sort of plan along the lines of what brought the ‘97 Labour victory. It will be interesting to see if it works this time.

 

[SpookyFrank]

He fucking should be.

He really put the “mad” into mad Tory cunt. He really was the loon who pushed to destroy all unionised industries in the UK and replace them (if at all) with making coffee and burgers to be bought on credit.
Should be dug up and hung.

Thatcher’s mentor and inspiration. Nasty sack of shit the ‘Mad Monk’ was.

 

[Pickman's model]

He's an utterly useless cunt. Who are you meant to vote for south of the border now? (I'd probably vote Green. slowly backs away )

Éirígí, if they're standing. Def not Fianna Fail, Fine Gael or Labour.

If he was really patriotic he'd have a head-dress made from a stag, not a buffalo.
