Goodness, I never thought Eddie could infuriate and patronise me more than when he's wanging on about 'girl mode,' but he's actually managed to achieve it with that line about not being a 'supercharged local councillor' like other candidates. He's basically telling his potential constituents that he's only interested in world-leader, history-making, Nelson Mandela-level stuff, so they're not to bore him with their lesser local problems like hospital parking or childcare places. Can you imagine if a Tory candidate essentially said, 'Fuck off, unless your problem is glamorous and will make me look like a saviour on the world stage.'?
Eddie Izzard: sometimes girl mode, sometimes boy mode, always total cock mode.
