"Look Gordon, there disappear your hopes of becoming Prime Minister..."
Our favourite political jokers, Tony Blair and Gordon Brown, have been busily spending the weekend denying accusations they run a "dual premiership". The Sunday People had the cheek to say there was a pact in place that Tony would resign in 2008, and Gorders would take over for two years, yackety schmackety blah blah blah... Click here for the story.
Am I the only one who feels like grabbing hold of Blair and saying "oh, if you're going to resign, just fuck off already. Half the country hates your guts. You've got nothing left to achieve, you've been a rubbish Prime Minister, go away and never appear in public life again...". To think Chameleon's coming up next... depressing times.
What do you think of this Blair/Brown business/bollocks?
Beep boop. I'm a bot.

- Public spending is out of control.
- They still haven't got to grips with crime.
- They've capitulated to Europe several times.
- Standards in education are plummeting.
- Council tax has risen 70% since 1997.
- Married Couples Tax Allowance was abolished.
- Transport in the UK is getting worse.

the duke of edinburgh cant stand for parliament can he?
And by the way, you might like to bear in mind that Labour supported Section 28 when it was first proposed in the 1980s. Absolutely true.
you can only learn by making mistakes and then realising you have made them, and then sort them out
rather than tory, lets do this and not care
and the express
The irony is that a few years ago he didn't want Carol Ann Duffy to have the Poet Laureate because of her sexuality.
My mum had a couple of gay friends when I was growing up, and it certainly didnt make me feel that way inclided (oh behave)
Irregardless, how come it is ok for Labour to support one piece of policy then change its mind afew years later and be all liked for it, but when the Torries do it they are pandering for support. or how come there is the obligatory, the torries wont have changed despite so many years out of power, which was the only thing that changed labour from a socialist failure to a right wing success?
I am just wondering.
Now, lets remember, the only reason for Labours economic stability is a Global economy is holding steady, if there was to be even the slightest slump now, that would be it for Gordon Brown as been remembered as a good chancellor. He has over spent and borrowed to an extent even beyond what it was when Labour came to power has he not?
Let's not forget that, for Gordon Brown, tax is a way of recruiting lots of people into useless public sector jobs (five-a-day co-ordinator, anyone?) who will always vote Labour because they're terrified the Tories would sack the lot of them. Of course, the Tories won't under a squidgy, wet liberal like David Chameleon.
The Tories though were still resisting moves to repel this abomination 2 years ago.
Some things never change.
And while some might see Cameron as a softly-softly liberal, let's remind ourselves that the Tories have chosen to pull out of the European Conservative Alliance (or whatever it might be called) and become allies with ultra right wingers, homophobes, bigots and semi-fascist MEPs.
New Tories, New Danger.
And the liberals supported slavery in the 18th century, it dosnt have any barring on the fact its wrong.
Im more inclined to believe that David Cameron is more right wing pretending to be moderate, then he is a squidgy wet liberal,
I might not subscribe to the policies of, say, the CDU in Germany, but I wouldn't accuse them of being extremists and lunatics.
But apparently even the likes of Spain's PP are not right wing enough for the Tories in Europe, choosing instead to abandon the European People's Party and seeking pacts with a rather disturbing collection of people.
I do hope you see that as a worrying developement.
Did they?
*sceptical face*
Well, quite. Seeing as New Labour are carrying on with Thatcher's policies.
If only. They are in favour of a large state and privatisation at one and the same time. At least Thatcher realised that government is fucking useless at getting anything done.
So we have the worst of both worlds.
Generally it's because they work in fields that no one would voluntarily pay for, so they need a big state to steal the money to pay their wages. It's a lot easier than growing up and getting a job someone wants them to do and is willing to pay for voluntarily.
Remember, all political types hate who you are, what you want and your free will. They all love who you would become if you just obeyed them.
