Couldn't resist posting this comment in the Daily Express today.
A brilliant piece of satire.
Thanks to the Author. Wish I could contact him to thank him personally!
Gordon Brown faces his biggest challenge since he wasn't elected to become PM.
With labor doing badly at in the opinion polls Brown is desperate to maximize his chances of a resounding defeat by rearranging his cabinet.
There was a bit of confusion at first when his PA had to stop him rearranging the drinks cabinet.
"Stop shouting it's free PM and come away. It's the political cabinet you need to rearrange"
"Yes yes OK then. Well here's the first problem who can I replace me with?. I may be incompetent, unelected and generally inept but everybody else is even worse than I am.
"Oh come come PM there must be lots of MPs who are less inept than you are. I mean look the mess you have made of everything"
"Well I like to think nobody could make a mes of it like I have"
Tha's the spirit PM never give up. How about promoting the Home Secretary and moving Ed Balls into her place"
"Oh I don't think her husband would like that. I don't think they would want Ed Balls moving in and anyway Home Sec spends a lot time at her sisters."
"No no PM I don't mean moving Ed Balls into her home, apart from anything else did you see the state of his flat? Disgusting. I meant making Ed Balls the Home Sec and giving the Home Sec your job"
"I could make Ed Home Sec but the Home Sec couldn't afford to do my job I don't make enough in allowances"
"Well PM it's only until you get kicked out at the next election.
"Do you really think I will be defeated? The people seem to love me. I don't believe opinion polls or people coming out on the streets with protest banners. They are simply a noisy majority of trouble makers".
"Well they don't have jobs and they can't pay their mortgages"
"That isn't my fault I'm fed up with their complaints. I gave them a vibrant economy. People from everywhere are flooding in here to take advantage of the good times. Why even now they are lining up on the other side of the Channel to come here. There are more of them than Dunkirk. We may have to send small boats to pick them up. You know like Churchill did. How do I compare with Churchill by the way?
I know he was a Tory but he did quite well really"
"Well PM I see you as a mirror to Churchill He went out and saved Britain from invasion.
"Yes yes?
"You did just the opposite PM"
"Thank you thank you I may as well stay on. Well until the defeat anyway. Now how about my daily spanking?
Yes Prime Minister bend over Now who messed up the economy?
Me Miss I messed up the economy. Argghhh owww...........................
