Just spotted on the Shettleston Road in Glasgow East, none other than Frank Dobson. I think I ought to start a new Top Ten List...
You Know You're Getting Desperate When...
10. You draft Frank Dobson in to persuade people to vote Labour in a Glasgow council estate.
Do continue it...
Leave dobbo alone ! His ideas at health were far more revolutionary than some of those stick-in-the-mud types, and they have been nicked on a wholesale leave by 'Lord' Darzi..
ReplyDelete9. Gordon Brown would rather try to sort out the Middle east than go to a by-election
ReplyDelete8. For the first time in your life you can only name a few people in the cabinet, such is the derth of talent
ReplyDelete8.You run silly games in the silly season
ReplyDelete11. You blog about Dobbo being out campaigning in a by-election.
ReplyDelete8- You employ Freud to copy Conservative Policy having only just got rid of him for being too Blairy.
ReplyDelete7 You go on the One show in the hope of a friendly interview
6 You cast off the old tax and spend image only to replace it with spend and spend.
5 You sigh with relief at the news lunatics can now be MP`s
4Your new border control service hires an illegal immigrant
3 You count holding onto 13500 majority in a welfare waste land as a stunning success
2 You delay the announcement of Glasgow pilot for said (copied from Conservatives) Welfare reform in case you annoy voters you have already paid for.
1 You run an anti Polish immigrant by election in Crewe despite being responsible for the quadrupling immigration
0 You run an anti Thatcher campaign in Glasgow East ....why not an anti Churchill campaign ...anti Lord Liverpool ?
I could go on...
11. You draft the whole tory team in to persuade people to vote tory in the already won safe tory seat of Howden/Haltemprice
ReplyDelete7. You select Mags 'the mole' Curran as your parliamentary candidate.
ReplyDelete6. Your candidate makes a big song and dance about being 'frae the East End, until she is reminded that she lives in a rather large mansion on the South Side, away from all the poor people.
ReplyDelete5. 2 days before the by-election, it transpires that your previous candidate may not have retired on health grounds but on 'snout in the trough' grounds.
You set Purnell up to tell a election meeting of the Labour faithful why he is proposing to treat IB claimants like criminals by giving them community service. I'd give Purnell two minutes before he gets a 'Glasgow kiss'.
ReplyDelete4. You ask Chris Paul to draft a message to attract Conservative voters.
ReplyDeleteAnon @ 1.45. Yeah, it's much easier to say in the bunker during by-elections than actually get out and campaign.
9. You have Gordon Brown as your ME warm-up act.
ReplyDelete(a dig at B'raaaaak O'bomber)
0. You feel you have to post anonymous attacks on one of those evil evil Centre-Right Blogs.
ReplyDelete-1. You join the Labour Party.
-2. You read the Guardian.
-3. You get Trevor Phillips to blame all the world's ills on the british class 'system' :P Oh god here we go again.
