"I really like this song," said a work colleague.
"I don't," I said.
"It's Ronan Keating. It's lovely."
"It's shit."
"But it's about his dead mum."
"Why didn't you say? I thought it was fucking awful. Now I think it's poignant."
Last night we had the sound turned down on the tv as David Cameron spoke sincerely into the camera for the Conservative Party Broadcast.

I turn down the sound when politicians come on telly and I make up my own dialogue.
ReplyDeleteTry it.
"Hello. I'm David Cameron. I'm a cunt and all my friends are cunts."
ReplyDeleteI find just not turning it on has a similar effect
ReplyDeleteIf it would get rid of Cameron, I would listen to Ronan singing about his dead mum on full volume every day and every night until the election and a bit longer.
ReplyDeleteThey all sound the same. They all look the same.
ReplyDeleteI think Ronan Keating should be the next Prime Minister. At least he looks different.

Well, at least you're spared Ségolène Royal and Martine Aubry.
ReplyDeleteZiggi - They catch you unawares.
ReplyDeleteKaz - I would listen to Sting every day and night.
Scarlet - Are you sure? Where's the fire in his belly?
Christopher - It's enough to make one embarrassed to call oneself a socialist.
Cunts, Geoff. But sometimes cunts can be good fun. Some of my best pals are cunts. Not to be trusted where money's concerned mind you.
ReplyDeleteMaybe that's why I never felt part of sports clubs I played for.
ReplyDeleteIf only David Cameron had dedicated his broadcast to a dead family member it would have been okay.
ReplyDeleteMaybe he should have broken into a shit mawkish song like Ronan, too.
ReplyDeleteExpect a big UKIP backlash.
"Hello my name's David Cameron and this is my moat."
ReplyDeleteMeet the new boss, same as. . .
Depressing.
I just vote for the lesser cunt.
