(“Drunk? Me? Jog on you bleeding ******! Now who said, ‘Oggy’?”
In true coalition spirit, Baroness Warsi and Chris Huhne today rallied together at a joint press conference to accuse Gordon and friends of indulging in a rather enticing pre-election spending “bender”. The coalition cuddlies said that in the weeks running up to the election, “Labour’s big spender went on one hell of a bender” after a “decade of spend, spend spend”, made all the more upsetting because current Labour MPs “don’t give a damn”. Apparently.
To further employ an already exhausted binge-drinking metaphor, Labour was presumably just drunk with success after ‘97, the recession must surely have been a baffling UDI, the ongoing raft of budget-biting austerity measures are the paracetamol to deal with the hangover and the upcoming double-dip will be the morning tactical. Delightful.
