Definitive proof that New Labour have completely lost the plot

Check this out. What is the matter with these people? How better to get people to vote for your opponents than by turning their leader into an instantly memorable and lovable animated character? I passed our village hall this morning to see a large crowd camping outside it hardly able to wait until the Fourth of May to register their support for Dave. I would have joined them, but I prefer my lizards a bit more Burroughsy (W.S. or E.R.).

Not that I care who does better. People talk about Blair's legacy: In the Little House it consists of transforming Labour from a party that was always treated with suspicion, but seen as preferable to the Tories under any circumstances, to one regarded with equal hatred (not more: we have long memories in The Flatlands). Well done Tony!
