An open letter to Sky News
Dear Sky News
Thank you for your press release hawking your hilarious political Top Trumps. It has been filed away in the usual place. I was gratified that you obviously took the time to look around my blog before including me in your mass unsolicited mail-out.
You missed this however. Oh, and the political ethos of this blog that would suggest, even to a particularly slow child, that I would rather place my generative organ in a bacon slicer than help shift product for Rupert Murdoch.
On the up side, however, I must praise you for elevating British politics to the level of a card game and boiling down the defining characteristics of our leaders to their looks and charisma. Democracy is safe in your hands.
Love
Justin

love it.
hey, Political Top Trumps! I invented that (specifically I discovered in an argument with Denis MacShane that the crime and educational achievement statistics on UpMyStreet.com could be used to play a version of Top Trumps with laughable Blairite bullshitters who were trying to pretend that their Yorkshire constituencies were more working-class and tougher than they really were). I’m gonna sue.
