Yesterday, the Conservatives launched their ‘militant’ attack on Labour with their ‘Cash Gordon’ poster.
I decided to take a cheap shot..

In an effort to learn a bit more and free myself from having an image totally influenced by what images I can find, I set myself a task of ’shopping a hi-res image, creating some of it from small parts of other images. Obviously the composition and large parts of the pic are from a pretty famous photograph but the jeans, faceswaps, etc. etc. etc. are made from many, many images. The suit was probably created from a dozen different photos.
What an effing pain! I’m not doing that again in a hurry. I’m sure there are many glaring errors* but I really can’t be bothered.
*Nope, smartarse, Bush’s left arm is hidden behind Blair as was Yoko’s with Lennon in the original.
^^^this written at time of posting. Update – already submitted to photoshopdisasters but with a twist. The person who submitted it thinks that part of the unshopped original pic is wrong! In fact, it’s the supposed ‘discrepancy’ in the original I mentioned above. As I said when I posted the image, I’m sure there’s plenty wrong with it, so go for the bits I photoshopped.

..says it worked for Jade Goody..
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.
Labour announces its election slogan “A future fair for all”

or could it be… (excuse the re-use of some old imagery)
