non partisan comment on the European Union and Westminster politics

 

A Reasonable Political Debate

Taking a leaf out of the EU book on denigrating the opponent, the Labour party has just issued its latest election ploy, instead of the EU myth where everything that is detrimental to the image of the EU is goatishly labelled a myth, the labour party has decided to label any policy coming out of the conservative central office as getting on the bandwagon.

As encouragement to those who want to join in, Labour has released its top ten on the “Michael Howard Bandwagon Watch”.

And you are also invited to send in your predictions as to what bandwagons Mr Howard may chase in the future.

Submit your predictions here:

Here are the current top ten favourites for his next bandwagon:
1. Howard pledges new “ATM bill” to deal with people who take too long getting money out of cashpoints.
2. Howard to ban hosepipe bans.
3. Howard to double limit on items allowed in “six and under” supermarket queues.
4. Howard says Premiership abuse of referees has grown under Labour, and promises a new “Graham Poll” bill.
5. Howard pledges to press Channel Four to move The Sopranos to 9pm.
6. Howard urges The West Wing to have a Republican President - preferably one who will meet him.
7. Howard to outlaw “push polling” - except by the Tories in this campaign.
8. Howard calls for royal wedding memorabilia profits to go to charity.
9. Howard pledges new bill to force pop stars to sing lyrics clearly.
10. Howard pledges streamlining of choice in coffee shops.

Quite obviously Labour do not want to enter into any reasonable debate on either their record or Conservative policies.
