There are those who say that mentioning Andy Coulson, the Conservative’s head of communications, is a ruse to deflect the accusations made against Gordon Brown. I’m sure there are many who are doing so for those reasons. But for God’s sake NOT mentioning it seems to me a crime while the Tories and some of their wannabe lapdogs are taking the high ground on bullying. Hypocrites.
Well, not really.
Here’s the guff I put in the extended notes on YouTube:
“The Lib Dems are eerily silent. Things are looking as bleak as the Wallander scenery. The Tories and Labour are pumping out the advertising and seem to be getting all the coverage (but maybe for all the wrong reasons).
Never mind, here’s a little video for Nick Clegg’s followers which they can use to promote themselves in an understated and ‘feel sorry for me’ kind of way.
Inspired by the Wallander credits. The lyrics ‘my knuckles bleed down the tattered street, on a door that shouldn’t be in front of me.” seem to fit the despair of door-to-door canvassing for the election**.
**May be absolute bullshit.
An acquired taste methinks but I quite like it.
