A Right Balls Up!

Mass Debate Minus One


Tonight sees yet another political mass debate on TV, this one though will be sans Cameron.

Labour's Bland Manifesto

Sans the de rigueur socially inclusive photos of people from a variety of backgrounds, sexes and ages etc.

How very bland!

The SNP Doesn't Like Democracy

Doubtless its army of cybernats and street thugs will be mobilised to ensure that people vote in the "correct" manner the next time!

Apparently Sturgeon "won" last night's #massdebate.

In the event that this "win" mutates to actual votes/seats then the country is fucked!

Farage's Prep


Methinks Farage is telling porkies.

As an Old Alleynian I can confirm that it was considered bad form to ever admit doing "prep". However, in reality those who claimed to have done nothing would invariably have worked their arses off the night before.
