*SOS* OLd Dosser Squats in No. 10!

[crystal123]

The quality paper the Sun, reports today that a 'Sweaty Old Sock' is squatting in No 10 Downing Street! Whitehall sources say, "the 59 year old Scot, refuses to move". The rightful owner, an Englishman known as Mr. Cameron is demanding help. So girls... I suggest a group of us march on Downing Street, remove this man and drag him kicking and screaming up the M1. We shall then, (using A roads, to avoid demonstrators, and being pelted with bricks!) deposit him in his homeland of Scotland where 'sources' say he states a preference. Ladies who's up for it?

Are "squatter's rights" a Labour proposal?

'Sweaty Old Sock'

This will be a difficult one...squatters have rights....9/10 of the law. Bring in the bailiffs that will sort him out grrrr.....

Cornsilk. 'Sweaty old sock'=Jock=Scot, I believe it's a term the cockneys' or mockneys' use.

If Labour had not brought in a law, banning any marches demos within 500 yards of Downing Street , I would have helped you, but as you are aware we do not have the democratic right to march/group/demo anywhere near Downing Street.

It's the custom (and precedent).

You are truly not coming across as terrible politically literate. Seriously.

The Sun is like a large turd being deposited on the middle of a table in the middle of a dinner party. It's funny if it's part of a sit-com or a satirical sketch - but in the midst of ordinary, rational reality -- it's just a sudden, and bewildering, outbreak of psychopathy.

Cameron wins by a mile and Labour are still in power, that just about says it all for what labour have achieved over the last 13 years doesn't it.

Blair had a landslide with that amount of votes and IMO (and the opinion of all who voted conservative) that means he has won.

Get out of NO:10 you horrible little man, you weren't elected as PM before and you certainly haven't been now.

I want to see Dave go for the minority government just so Brown gets removed from NO; 10.

As for Clegg, Ha !

Animula. Your post made me fee warm all over. It was so intelligent and I felt a bit lyrical. Well done. I can tell you never peruse, or let your 2 year old read the 'Soaraway Sun'. Well done.

Spot on, b4real, I do read the Sun. It's gone downhill a bit, but, as has been said by many, many others before me, it's prose style is excellent for its v. sharp imagery, and brevity. And the way it manages to play with outright vulgarity. In all the meanings of that word. (And i don't mean that in a bad way. Its interesting.)

I hope I was channelling a little of that. Though I know it fell short.

But, for serious pol. analysis -- no. The Sun is zero/sum, and political discussion requires more time and space.

This issue has been discussed at more length on other threads. This is a Sun-style thread.

A little Sun moment in the middle of mn.

Animula.what sort of dinner parties do you attend? 'Turds on dinner tables' Is this some sort of Labour/lefty/libdem fetish? I prefer the good old Tory food of 'tea and cakes' or are you just being a rascal?
