UK Has Put On The Wrong Trousers

Read Time:3 Minute, 55 Second

Britain’s opposition political party is, at the moment, The Labour Party. They are the one’s who held power for over a decade with Tony B-liar at the helm.

On their initial election to power we, the people, thought “Hello – we’ve a chap in charge who says ‘call me Tony’ and ‘trust me I’m one of you’ so we did.

Oops.

Still, we thought much the same about John Major who was elected on the crest of the Thatcher wave so, clearly, we are pretty stupid in Britain in political terms aren’t we?

Labour, ostensibly the ‘left’ in British political terms, now have a strange looking and talking chap called Ed Milliband vying to be our next Prime Minister. He has a problem.

He is the human embodiment of Gromit – of ‘Wallace and Gromit’ fame. If you have no idea what the hell I’m on about – like I do? – then Youtube ‘Wallace and Gromit’ and you’ll get the picture, or simply watch the video show at the end of this contribution.

If that wasn’t enough of a problem for the poor soul he has appointed as his ‘deputy’ a chap called Ed Balls.

Now, I’m sorry, but if you are a politician with genuine aspirations of becoming Prime Minister you do not select a man with the surname ‘Balls’ to be your co-runner and deputy do you?

“What do you think of the comments by the prospective Deputy Prime Minister should Labour be elected Mr or Mrs electorate?”

“BALLS!” – not really rocket science is it?

I have, for the first and almost certainly last time in my life, joined a political party. It’s called UKIP – The United Kingdom Independence Party.

UKIP want an immediate national referendum on whether Britain should continue to be a member of ‘The European Union’ and they also want, amongst other things, a complete closure of our borders to prevent Romanian and Bulgarian beggars entering our country – a wee bit late chaps as we already have Romanian beggars setting up tents in Hyde Park in the centre of London but the thought’s there eh?

By becoming a member of UKIP, according to Britain’s ‘left’ I am now a ‘racist, xenophobic Islamophobe and generally a ‘Little Englander’ who should be treated as a dinosaur and ignored.

Fine.

My alternatives are to support, politically speaking, The Conservatives who are clearly run by ‘posh boys’ who are trying to bribe us to vote for them by promising a ‘European IN/OUT vote’ if they are elected to government next time which equals ‘let’s con and bribe the electorate’ – (actually if the daft buggers gave us the vote now we might actually elect them at the next General Election but what do I know eh?)

The Labour Party who, according to one of B-liars men – and I use ‘men’ advisedly – Peter Mandelson has publically admitted that Labour during their 10 year tenure scoured the globe to bring in immigrants that would vote ‘Labour’ – thank you for turning my home town into ‘downtown Mogadishu’ chaps – I really appreciate that – who are also a political party with a leader who is so like Gromit I would like to like him but, despite the similarity, he clearly isn’t Gromit.

The Liberal Democrats who are seriously unhinged – which, in a strange way perhaps, should attract me but doesn’t.

Who else have we got?

The British National Party who are trying desperately to not be Hitler’s British legacy – and, fair do’s, they are making progress in that sort of vein. Well, vaguely. They have a one eyed leader who insists they aren’t racist anymore. mmmmm – doubting Thomas that I am.

The Communist Party – why have I even bothered mentioning them? Too much voddy, clearly.

The Green Party – now we mustn’t forget them! If you can’t have a laugh at politics then what’s the point??

Anyroad. I’ve stuck my banner to UKIP. They aren’t ‘anti-immigration’ they’re ‘pro-controlled immigration’ i.e.  you have skills we need then welcome, you have no skills then bugger off. That’s MY kind of policy.

So there yer go. Great Britain. The land of milk and honey. The land where you can pop over from Somalia and claim benefits just because you’re here. The land where you can get paid money for doing absolutely nothing other than going to your Friday prayers.

It’s not everyday that an entire country inadvertently pulls on the wrong trousers is it? I’d sleep better if I believed it was inadvertent but it wasn’t. It was a political plan by Labour to secure a larger voting base. The result turned out to be Pakistan replacing Birmingham.

Thanks guys. Thanks Ed (Gromit) Milliband.

Thanks a bloody lot.

I thought some of your views were strange – now I know why – a member of UKIP??????? (No doubt something to do with your early life!) They are without doubt all the names attributed to them which you mentioned.

As for Ed Miliband – who you think you are insulting by comparing him to Wallace or Gromit – all I can say is they are lovely decent characters – so in that way I agree with you. As for your silly comment on Ed Balls – a rose by any other name would smell as sweet!

As for Tony Blair – you have obviously forgotten he won THREE elections.

You can sniff the coffee or whatever you prefer to sniff Anon – why are you Anon by the way? I respect your views even if they differ from mine but it’s easier to respect a view when you know who’s view you’re respecting.

You aren’t by any small chance Tony B-liar are you? Now that would be a coup!!! 😉

UKIP. Strange? Now let’s see. They want, above all else, for the British people to have a vote on membership of the European Union. A vote we’ve NEVER been allowed before. We are, I believe, a democracy. Is a vote on such a major issue not democratic?

Sorry Anon – whoever you are – you’re argument was lost as soon as you commented as Anonymous. Much like all those who support the European Union and B-liar – you’re frightened to identify yourself.

I’m not. Crack on mate. I will defend your right to your views always. I wonder if you’d defend my right to my views? Possibly anonymously eh? 😉

Norman, I can see the steam rising from your head all the way over here in Alabama. You need some calming, soothing music there young man. You are going to die of a stroke over something you can’t control. On the other hand, if it helps for you to vent here, them we are pleased to be your audience.

Looks like UKIP is the “Libertarian” party of England. Just really means they are conservatives that smoke weed once in a while but for everything else they are conservatives. Went to their website and came across, go home or face arrest billboards about illegals, yup we have that here. Don’t let the “others” in, yep got that here too. Here, for example, is today’s quote of the day from July 20th below, sound or look familiar anyone? Basically baggers that don’t want to be seen associating with baggers, coz it might make them look bad. Yep, our Tea Party has traveled across the pond to find new shores woohooo.

“Wherever one looks we see the state making decisions that are not the state’s to make. We find it creeping into the nooks and corners of our lives when it was never invited.”

The ‘billboards’ have nothing to do with UKIP. They are an idea – and I use the term very loosely – of our current government which, clearly, isn’t UKIP. There are many things that UKIP can be criticized for – and, right now, frankly, I’ll forgive them, but the ‘billboards’ are bugger all to do with UKIP. They’re a weird and ludicrous ploy by our current government. So there. 😉

Having said that, the prospect of Nigel Farage going anywhere near my nooks and corners would be anathema even if I like the chap! 😉

Norman you sound like an angry guy sometimes, but I get where you’re coming from, I think.

I am sometimes – more frustrated than angry. I see MY country vanishing before my eyes and it is frustrating to see that.

For what it’s worth I have many valued friends of many race, creeds and colours. If I was actually a racist or xenophobe I suspect I wouldn’t.

I say what I think and think what I say. That’s just me. Like it or lump it I suppose.

Just don’t try to stop me saying what I say because ‘freedom of speech’ is a mainstay of democracy and you remove it you remove democracy.

You’d like me Rachael….honestly you would…I’m so normal in England it’s almost ridiculous 😉

I’ve heard of Wallace & Gromit, but my curiosity will no doubt lead me to investigate further 🙂

You should. Watch Chicken Run also too, same thing with Curse of the Were Rabbit. Chicken Run is like Great Escape, but with chickens that think they will be able to fly.

Wallcae loves him some Lancashire hotpot thing with wine, of course, and Gromit is a smart ass dog that does face things to show his displeasure or happiness. Ooops, does this make me a geeky girl that I know this much about them. Why yes, yes it does and I am okay with that 🙂

I love Wallace and Gromit, but that said, I don’t see Gromit being a very good politician :-), much less the Prime Minister or second in control in Great Britain :-(. Unfortunately, I suspect that your familiarity and knowledge about American politics is significantly more complete than mine of British. Good luck!
[We have the three Wallace and Gromit minis on DVD, as well as the movie “Creature Comforts” (I think), and “Chicken Run”. We are all big fans of the producers and style :-)]
