Snotty

Gordon Brown is not an idiot, I like to think of him more as slightly more sophisticated collective farmer.

He appears his short term goal is remain electable and politically palatable which he may not be to anybody with a brain, but unfortunately there is no minimum IQ to qualify as a voter which means that the majority of the electorate will not be recieving invites to the next meeting of MENSA.

This may give him and his Uber Socialists another term in office. If he does win, the government will have a very large stake in financial institutions effectively blurring the lines between the state and the financial sector. The government will change from merely having a regulatory function to having an iron grip on finance, which means having control over everythign that requires money(Business, housing etc).

In a nutshell Snotty is about paternalism and control, he wants everybody to do things his way and he is a control freak to boot.

If he does get into power for a new term, the ZanuLabour increasingly paternalistic modus operandi will step up a gear, and every negative incident, whether it be a recession, another Baby P, another teenager stabbed in London will be engineered to allow for another raft of legislation which diminishes the range of activities we can participate in before we interface with the state.

No he is not stupid, but if he pulls this off he and NL will turn into a very powerful state machine, all in the interests of "fairness" and for the benefit of "hard working families".

Maybe I am being paranoid but this is how I see him and his lot. But they are not stupid.

Do you think his daddy beat him much as a child? Explains a HELLUVA lot about his actions and his personality!

Do you think his daddy beat him much as a child?

Would you blame his daddy for doing so?
Gordon, I've warned you already I'd smack you if you kept pinching my wallet and you didn't listen, so it's six of the best. Bend over!

So what you initially posted was a really tulip joke, that accidently was funny, but you only realised later that it was funny, and your original intention was to tell what we came to now see as a tulip joke, but which you mistakenly took as funny?
