Cameron Gives Clegg The Thumbs Up!

September 8, 2012 by gingerfightback

Well folks,

Britain’s great summer of sport is drawing to a close. Sadly,Bradley no more, Mo no more, Jessica no more, Weir no more or Ellie no more.

All the lads and lasses who ran, threw, rode, sailed, lifted and made peculiar noises with the strain of it all are now being adulated in their home towns, villages, sheds and/or bus stops.

Union Flags are being folded and neatly placed in airing cupboards across the land.

As I write, I can hear hamstrings twanging as men of a certain age struggle into lycra in the vain hope of “I used to ride to school therefore I can make it to Rio in 2016”. The logic as ill-fitting as the sportswear.

Sadly, our politicians are now limbering up to take centre stage.

As the vainglorious peacocks in the Coalition Government unveil yet more incomprehensible incompetence, David Cameron has given Nick Clegg the thumbs up!

Oh Dear.

Rule of Thumb

But fear not, we always have Ed!

“I’ve Had The Adenoids Out Therefore I Am Fit For Porpoise”

Latest evidence suggests that they collaborated on a well known piece of art restoration!

“Have You Got A Green Felt Tip Pen George?”

Gawd help us.

Laughed out loud, Jim. Sometimes you just have a way of putting your finger on the crux of the matter, as they say.

I may just have to steal that glorious picture of Cameron and Cleggy! It would have made Andy Pennington smile 🙂

Which athelete got ‘Nam a gold post box?

  Help yourself – a rower called Alex Gregory got the post box – outside the old Milletts shop. The paint has dribbled onto the pavement.

    A friend posted a photo of it on her Livejournal; my first thought was “That’s a really sloppy job” – but I recognised the location straight away.

It must be contagious…we have an ugly dose of the same nonsense going on in the U.S., too. Vainglorious peacocks–that about says it! Debra

I like your interpretation of the thumbs up. I give a thumbs up to our glorious opposition leader too.
