GENERAL ELECTION 2010: Labour’s ‘Toon Army
Are you enjoying New Labour’s cartoon manifesto? On a scale of 1 to 10, how old does it make you feel? After seeing it I had to go and watch In The Night Garden to try and drag my IQ back to its usual level.
I think the idea is that most voters are lazy and thick so ideas and policies must be conveyed as simply as possible by depicting the British electorate as nondescript dancing blobs. I know politicians have little regard for the public but this is pushing the boundaries a bit.
Anyway. If it’s good enough for a serious political party seeking office, it’s good enough to me. I have an important message for my wife…

I have to admit that this made me laugh like a drain. So it’s good for something.
So your family’s future is that you intend dyeing your hair blond and growing the Beard down to your crotch? No wonder they’re kicking you out.
