What's the best joke that #piggate has spawned so far?

That it should have been called "The Prosciutto Affair"

phildywer's disruption of the thread, showing him as an ardent defender of his oxford contemporary david 'pig-fucker' cameron.

They can't be that important, then? Tories, were they?

I didn't ask. Does it matter? They were important to me in the sense that they are mates.

No wonder he did, dirty buggers they are.

Two words: Tibetan prayer-bowl.

You don't know whether or not your mates are tories?

Oh look. Urban's resident homophobe is back.

Maybe Cameron should have gone with 8den 's patented 'But my puppy had just died' defence.

That's three words - hyphens don't reduce the word count.

 

[Pickman's model]

pedantry alive and well

 

[LiamO]

Thank you, Master.

 

[Pickman's model]

Thank you, Master.

[teqniq]

no, no - i bow to my superior. i would never have thought to quibble with dwyer on the word count.

Now you iz just being modest.

 

[Pickman's model]

Now you iz just being modest.

as is fitting in the presence of such an august überpedant as LiamO.

Curses, it was a trap for Pickers. But you had to go and spoil it.

He's not a count.

He's not a count.

Who's going to be the first?

It's an open goal! (Purely humour, nothing against phil)

Actual confirmation that this story has been forgotten...

THE story that went round last week about David Cameron has completely disappeared from the public mind, it has emerged.
Only a few days ago, the internet was rife with insinuations that he participated in some kind of obscene act.
But now, with the rugby world cup, the Volkswagen emissions scandal and Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour conference speech, no one can remember what it was.
Tom Logan, from Workington, said: “Oh yes, there was something, wasn’t there? Was it to do with a private members’ bill on farm subsidies?”
Nikki Hollis, from Hatfield added: “Now that you mention it, I do recall seeing something on Twitter. He was at a friend’s house… he sang a song about a chicken…
“Nope, it’s gone.”
A Downing Street spokesman said: “Well, that’s a relief.”

You don't know whether or not your mates are tories?

Unless someone tells me, I don't ask which way they vote. Should I?

tbh you can usually tell a tory without needing to ask which way they vote.

Well, for sure. If the world consisted of absolutes.

 

[Pickman's model]

Well, for sure. If the world consisted of absolutes.

if you cannot tell a tory from their views on certain issues and personalities - well, i think you know where i'm going on this one.

Not got very good vermin radar, then? Or are your conversations somehow restricted to 'apolitical' topics?

No, I'm not clever enough.

I'll hazzard a guess, mind. Some posters who lack imagination and may well be as dim as I am have suggested over the years that because I don't parrot the confrontation stance, because I don't do violence, or wave flags, or do nationalism that I might be a tory.

I am not, nor ever have been a tory. I do not vote for them and I cannot think of a single decent tory politician, off the top of my head.

That said; stupid as I am; I like to get on with people and I take them as I find them. If they are tory; so be it. Of course one or two people I know vote tory. You're allowed do that kind of thing in a democracy, unpleasant electoral choice as it might be.

I also have mates who vote Sinn Fein - I wouldn't vote for that party, either.
