Flatus Quo

The Parliamentary Labour Party have decided you can have any colour you like as long as its Brown. The man himself is proving to be continuity Blair. There’s the creeping realisation that you might as well pick the next deputy leader of the Labour Party with a pin for all the differences between the candidates.

And this is a party supposedly obsessed with ‘choice’ and ‘change’ and ‘modernisation’.

With this in mind and in tribute to the departing Tony Blair, he and many of his friends have put together an album of Status Quo covers. It’s dedicated to Britain’s voters and is titled ‘Quo Vadis?’ Here’s a sneak peak of the track listings.

1. Down Down – The Labour Party Membership
2. Something ‘Bout You Baby I Like – Tony Blair and Rupert Murdoch
3. Break The Rules – Peter Mandelson and David Blunkett
4. Roll Over Lay Down – The Parliamentary Labour Party
5. Gonna Teach You to Love Me – Gordon Brown
6. Whatever You Want – Tony Blair and Rebekah Wade
7. Roll Over Lay Down (reprise) – The Parliamentary Lobby Journalists
8. Dear John – Tracey Temple
9. Famous In The Last Century – Alastair Campbell
10. Ain’t Complaining – Alastair Campbell’s Bank Manager
11. In My Chair – Tony Blair and Gordon Brown
12. Living On An Island – Margaret Hodge
13. The Party Ain’t Over Yet – Hazel Blears
14. She Don’t Fool Me – The Ex-Members of the Labour Party
15. Marguerita Time – Tony Blair

David Cameron’s tribute album ‘More Quo Than Quo’ is released next week.

    “More Quo Than Quo”? Is this Cameron’s admission of the decline in his status?
