To ask if you'd be into a bit of UK government fanfic?

[FlutterShite]

Just curious, really. It seems to me that this current bunch of knockabout characters in the government could make some fun fan fiction. Does it exist already? Who'd be the slash pairings? Shall I write some?

You want to write slash about THIS lot??

Nope sorry. That's just depraved.

Gross. If I wanted to read about braying toffs fucking, I'd buy a Jilly Cooper novel.

I’m pretty open minded but that bunch are far too deviant for me

Every comment so far is pointing to a definite market for this kind of muck.

God no. Repulsive.

How controversial.

I read one linked in Popbitch years ago that was a slash story involving Michael Gove and a dinosaur (yes, you read that right) and wanted to bleach my eyes for some time afterwards.

This lot?

Yikes. That's the kind of thing I'm thinking of. It's time for the penny dreadfuls to enjoy a renaissance.

Some mumsnetters have quite strong feelings about Ed Balls, Sir Keir Starmer and Mark Carney. Not so much on the Tory side though.

VirginWestCoast that does illustrate how disgusting it would be, yes. Having heard business colleagues refer to "dishy Rishi", it's possible that he's a contender for one of the main roles.

There used to be loads of Cameron/Ed Milliband stuff knocking about on AAOOO. Meaningful glances across the HoC etc.

How about a good old fashioned romance? 'Diane watched, open-mouthed in awe, as he skilfully removed his handknitted sweater to reveal a checked flannelette shirt and the merest hint of a vest, the mark of a true socialist. She wanted him right there on those green leather benches and she wanted him now.'

'I read one linked in Popbitch years ago that was a slash story involving Michael Gove and a dinosaur (yes, you read that right) and wanted to bleach my eyes for some time afterwards.'

OMG! Was the dinosaur called Jacob Rees Mogg, by any chance?

Fanfic runs on the reader having an emotional attachment to the characters already. Fanfic writers can then dive straight into the torrid sex writers without having to justify why we should want to read further to find out if the relationship succeeding

How many people can there be who actually care enough about our present government ministers to ship them?!

*torrid sex writing

I think the truth is stranger than fiction in this case.

This is filthier than even my mind. Obscene

Euurrgh.

Well, I'm shipping Farage and Widdecombe. Farracombe? Wirage?

Definitely not.

ohhh I see I didnt manage to get here before the totally none racist obsession with making shit jokes about Dianne Abbot started,

What, like the Daily Mail?
