The stickman from the hilarious "xkcd" comics, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:03 (seventeen years ago)

I know it's a cliche but Jack Straw always takes some beating. Or I would be happier if he did take one.

Harman tho! And Ruth Kelly!! And lol Shaun Woodward!!! Not to mention horny-handed son of toil man of the people ueber-Trot Alan Johnson!!!!

Ach, I need to think about this one for a little while.

Noodle Vague, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:05 (seventeen years ago)

Woodward.

Matt DC, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:07 (seventeen years ago)

Thing is with Woodward, he's never made any bones about being a Tory crunt. He is the least stealthy stealth Tory there, and on those grounds I can't bring myself to give him this coveted award.

Noodle Vague, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:09 (seventeen years ago)

Uhhhh, Blears?

^wait what

The stickman from the hilarious "xkcd" comics, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:15 (seventeen years ago)

'musing

Tom D., Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:16 (seventeen years ago)

I have a lot of residual unreasonable hate for Johnson mainly cos he still tries to rock that token prole schtick whilst guzzling at the Blairite teat.

Noodle Vague, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:17 (seventeen years ago)

Hutton for his stupid "envy" speech. Yes, poor scum, it's your fault you can't afford to pay utility bills whose costs have been artificially elevated to subsidise the lifestyles of electricity and gas company shareholders, starve your cat to death to make it more competitive, &c.

Dingbod Kesterson, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:17 (seventeen years ago)

Oh god yeah forgot that magical moment where they threw the mask away altogether and cackled like Ming the Merciless for 20 minutes.

Noodle Vague, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:19 (seventeen years ago)

Blears is the vilest. A dangerous, inhuman being.

the pinefox, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:21 (seventeen years ago)

Good McClaren illustration, I have to admit.

the pinefox, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:21 (seventeen years ago)

Thing about Woodward is that the only time he made it anywhere near the Conservative frontbench was back in the Hague days when they were Lol Tories. It makes me wonder what the hell the rationale is for selecting Cabinet ministers these days, whether they've run out of candidates who won't rock the boat, or whether they're just trolling.

Ah Hutton, that's the other one I was trying to think of. Also Geoff Hoon FFS.

Matt DC, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:21 (seventeen years ago)

I suspect a straight voting-record check would be unilluminating here, so we need to define the clear blue water that separates these wonderful men and women.

Noodle Vague, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:23 (seventeen years ago)

Jacqui Smith does a nice line in patronising primary school headmistress talking down to people.

Noodle Vague, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:24 (seventeen years ago)

What's so bad about Blears, relative to the rest of them? I haven't been paying attention.

Matt DC, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:25 (seventeen years ago)

I find it very hard to vote for anyone but Kelly in this list, has she every managed to implement a policy in her entire time in government?

Ed, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:26 (seventeen years ago)

Surprised there's not more support for Ruth "Bring Back the Inquisition" Kelly.

Noodle Vague, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:27 (seventeen years ago)

oops there ya go

Noodle Vague, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:27 (seventeen years ago)

It's never a good idea to put a Guardian Proper Trained Journalist into any government.

Dingbod Kesterson, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:28 (seventeen years ago)

also with Blears, it's the Worzel factor. Not to mention supporting hospital closures and then campaigning against the closure of her local hospital.

Dingbod Kesterson, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:28 (seventeen years ago)

I'm gonna vote for Johnson tho, to avoid accusations of misogyny.

And because he's a bloated purple cock.

Noodle Vague, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:29 (seventeen years ago)

You should go for Miliband because he's just a thin blue line of Dermot O'Leary NOTHING.

Dingbod Kesterson, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:29 (seventeen years ago)

Hoon would have won if they let him on TV as much as they used to

Tom D., Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:30 (seventeen years ago)

Darling would win if he still had the Pepe le Pew hair/beard thing going on.

Noodle Vague, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:30 (seventeen years ago)

I've just had an awesome vision of a cartoon where Gordon Brown is Pepe and Darling is that cat that gets the accidental paint strip in the first scene, and Brown's skipping after him up and down Downing Street.

Noodle Vague, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:34 (seventeen years ago)

A bit like when Sarkozy met Brown?

Tom D., Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:35 (seventeen years ago)

Brown gives off a really strong Pepe le Pew vibe.

Noodle Vague, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:35 (seventeen years ago)

Anonymous sources claimed today.

Noodle Vague, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:36 (seventeen years ago)

George Baker as Number 2 in The Prisoner is the spitting image of GB:

http://www.theunmutual.co.uk/images/Captions/auctiongeorgebaker.jpg

Dingbod Kesterson, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:37 (seventeen years ago)

But Number 2 was a sinister figurehead who, although a complete bastard dedicated to making Number 6's life miserable, may ultimately have been in thrall to unseen oh wait

Noodle Vague, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:39 (seventeen years ago)

Had no idea John Denham was even in the Cabinet. He's actually pretty solid. I'd have him as the next prime minister.

James Mitchell, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:44 (seventeen years ago)

The one after Cameron you mean?

Tom D., Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:45 (seventeen years ago)

Noodle Vague, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:47 (seventeen years ago)

^Lolz
Jack Straw has way too much contempt for his fellow Labour than is necessary for someone in Labour also Johnson is a massive shitbin. I would go for him but the Baroness is winning on names only! Harman is an insufferable maniac and I will never forget the stab vest incident so I will in this instance, vote for her.

I change my mind, Hutton it is.

VeronaInTheClub, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:51 (seventeen years ago)

Hutton reminds me of a bloke who's turned up late for Parliament and doesn't realise what party he's in.

Noodle Vague, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 09:54 (seventeen years ago)

In 2000, Straw turned down an asylum request from a man fleeing Saddam Hussein's regime, stating "we have faith in the integrity of the Iraqi judicial process and that you should have no concerns if you haven’t done anything wrong."

never heard of half of these people :/

blueski, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 10:39 (seventeen years ago)

Miliband until he tells us just what the fuck that is above his upper lip.

King Boy Pato, Tuesday, 15 July 2008 11:02 (seventeen years ago)

I think it's Peter Mandelson.

Do you think people just go around calling him 'Balls' all day? Like "Hey Baaaalllllsssss, what are your views on American football? Do you think its just BAAAAAALLLLSSS?'
I hope so.
