It has been a long time since my last post and for this I apologize; however you'll be pleased to know today I'll be covering everyone's favourite topic, politics, and what a fantastic failure politics in this country has become.
There are several reason that I have come to this depressing conclusion, the first of which being the absolutely amazing ignorance of the Labour Party.
Oh sorry......let me be more specific.
At Nottingham University a couple of weeks ago, Gordon Brown, in all of his wisdom, released five election pledges that will help Britain recover from the recession and everyone will be happy. I know Scotland might be socially on a different planet but seriously Gordy?
Yes these five pledges seemed extremely hollow and were riddled with holes such as where will the money come from, how do they plan to do it and is an election plan something that you should base on five short sentences? Unfortunately (and I use this word because it truly is unfortunate) this five pledges were not what concerned me most about the Labour Party's campaign. It was in fact the campaign slogan which surrounded the PM while he gave such a lackluster speech.
Anyone else spot it? The leading political party of the United Kingdom, the nation from which the modern English language originated, cannot come up with a slogan that includes any form of correct grammatical structure.
A future fair for all.
"Come on everyone, screw the election lets all go to a carnival."
A future, fair for all. A fair future for all. Either of these would have been perfectly acceptable yet somehow with all of resources available to Labour's PR department the still manage to make themselves look even less intelligent than they already appear.
Through a legal technicality I am allowed to vote in the United Kingdom. I pay taxes why the hell not? But do these people really expect me and any other person who hasn't recently suffered major head wounds to vote for them? As a party you can't master basic grammar but you want me to trust you with the next few years of my financial well being, public safety, job security, education, transport and everything else the government (which is currently the Labour Party) has failed at for the last four years? Well maybe you can work on some English skills Mr. Brown. What does g,e,t,f,u,c,k,e,d spell?
Anyway I think you can guess by now what I think of Labour Party. It makes me sad to some extent how hopeless they have become and it scares me to think what could happen if they are re-elected. Guess we'll find out on May 6th. In the mean time, over the next few weeks, I shall be pointing out the flaws, and maybe if you're lucky strengths, of the other various parties that we shall soon be putting our faith in. I might even review the E4 Party for those of you who have seen the ads :D
Till next time.....
You, my friend, are brilliant.
ReplyDeleteThere was no mistake. The Labour Party boffins, in their ignorance, actually meant exactly what they said. More of the same sideshows and hoop-la that have been all the go up until now. Time for a change, Doris.
