Same Old Cliché

David Cameron’s Conservatives are the “same old Tories” as they were under Maggie Thatcher, according to many.

Could this be baseless scaremongering by those who have nothing better to say because they have no leg to stand on? Could the proponents be wearing 30 year blinkers? I think not. I believe that some clever Labour scientists have discovered a 30 year timewarp in British history. In that case, what else can we expect from this election?

Tony Blair, it turns out, was James Callaghan, part of the good old, Same Old Labour.

That’s right, the Social Democrats never split off (so why the Lib Dems exist, I don’t know), Clause Four was never dropped and we should be recovering nicely from a winter of discontent (hey, maybe this is really true). The unions, far from caving in, should still be able to hold the the country to a three day week.

If Blair was Callaghan, that means that Brown is Michael Foot. Things are looking up in that case, as this year’s manifesto is the longest suicide note in history. I look forward to seeing the new (same old) David Thatchon (Margaret Catcher?) win a landslide election victory very soon.

I have just one request. Now we have this wormhole, could Nigel Farage and Nick Griffin both disappear down it?
