Well Hi Kids! This month we are celebrating our wonderful democracy and its noble embodiment - the Right Honorable Derek Thomas MP with a FREE SOUVENIR POSTER OF DEREK for your room - or your street!
Well it all started some time ago - years back in fact - when I first met Derek and he broke his first promise to me - that was about eight years ago - he-s probably forgotten but I haven-t -
Anyway since the election when he somehow snuck back into office in June 2017 I have sadly neglected Derek and you know what they say - you have to work on your relationships if you value them - - -
So I thought it was time I gave Derek some of my attention again - I know that always pleases him - and I thought I-d celebrate our relationship publicly by inviting you to print out and proudly display my painstakingly produced hand-lettered souvenir poster in pencil and biro - signed copies are available if you wish to request one -
Sometimes in a relationship you can boil it all down to three magic little words - well I can honestly say that when I think of Derek and all the times we-ve had together there are just three little words that come to my mind - from my heart - and I have to say these three little words to my Member - my Man in Westminster - my Democratic Representative and Member of Her Majesty-s House of Commons - yes Derek - just three little words - LIAR - FRAUD - THIEF - I could say more but why guild the lily - these three words say it all as far as I am concerned - they just say it all - - - - - -
Note: You can print and colour the poster in the colour of your choice: Black for Anarchist - Red for Socialist - or Yellow for Don-t Know - even better make your own propaganda -
ARE TORIES FUCKING A DEAD PIG?
Well, they say that 'a week is a long time in politics' and the last nine days will be remembered for two utterly extraordinary events. On Saturday 12th September the Labour Party elected Jeremy Corbyn, a Socialist, as Leader of the Labour Party, with a bigger majority than even blair got. Unbelievable! The entrenched British right is out to get Corbyn and he has been criticized for not singing God Save The Queen (he is a Republican - so why would he?)
Funnily enough, with all the media-frenzy trying to make Jeremy Corbyn look like the Anti-christ, the second thunderbolt has exploded in the blue sky of British Politics - on 21st September the story emerged that the Prime Minister, David Camoron, has been caught fucking a dead pig. Well, not exactly, but near enough for concern.... The allegations were made by 'lord' Ashcroft, a multi-millionaire who had poured millions of pounds into the right-wing Conservative Party of Britain. It seems Ashcroft had been hoping for a top government job and had been let down by his product. Enraged that his protege had reneged on him, the 'lord' published his porky tale of bestial perversion, drunkeness, cocaine, ganja, Supertramp (ughh!) and vile depraved 'dinners', at one of which he alleges that Camoron inserted his 'genitals' into the mouth of a dead pig during a 'ritual'. (sic)
And people think Corbyn's got an image-problem!
Welcome to the wacky world of British politics.
I thought I'd contact my representative in the British democracy, Derek Thomas, to see how - and if - he responds to the curious allegations. I sent the following email:

Re: David Cameron's Conduct
Dear Derek,
In view of Lord Ashcroft's allegations about the Prime Minister, I am anxious to know whether you would still consider David Cameron fit to lead the government if it turns out to be true that he performed a lewd act with a dead pig's head?
Best wishes, Jeremy Schanche
It seems the leaders of the Lib Dem and Labour parties are both vegetarians...
