Picture Imperfect

To pick up a media pass for the Conservative conference in Blackpool they specify that you have to bring photo-ID. Your face is not good enough?

I'm surprised you don't have to provide a birth certificate too, to prove you are alive

If Quentin Davies was still attending he'd have to bring two - one for each face!

I would not give you a media pass as you wear a bag on your head all the time. Very odd.

Any comment yet from Cameron in response to the lies, spin, and bullshit in Brown's speech yesterday?

No? Thought not.

Isn't the use of the face to id someone a bit advanced for the current outfit?
PS..the strategic decision to cancel the rock made by dave smacks of the firm government we can expect in the future.

Where are the Tories? Surely they could demolish that Brown bullshit quite easily. I really don't think they give a toss any more - too many outside interests to care about the little people. I know it's difficult with a hostile media but they really should be showing more energy. They seem so lightweight. I think health is the most important issue facing us today yet they don't pounce on the catastrophic failures facing us after ten years. Andrew Lansley is a weak, useless prick. The NHS doen't come up to the knees of other European countries. I don't give a shit about Labour's statistics - the quality of care is almost Third World. I really want to slash my wrists sometimes. God, I'm depressed.

Good point, just where are they? Being told what to think by the Franco-German axis in the EU more likely.

McBroon pontificating at what even Andrew Neil had to admit was a totally Brown focussed "Conference" - not much discussion at said "Conference", only listening to be 'told what to think' more like it. The 'adoration of the Magi' at Tory conferences in the past has been replaced by the adoration of the NHS "Saviour" in NuLabour Land.

Where, who knows, probably being starved of the oxygen of publicity as usual, or just possibly in need of boot up arse.
The last time the conservatives commented on the NHS all the over promoted NHS commissars on their £150K salaries piped up on request and lied about their facilities not facing closure so as to help labour party propaganda. What a happy day for the BBC (actually they stretched it out over more like a week). Be afraid.

So we have a Conservative party then,I thought Dave and his mates had buzzed off to help in the floods in Africa,silence may be golden but when your supposed to be running a political party you should be shouting ,maybe the all have colds.

Are you actually going to bring your 2006 pass as photo ID? :¬) Classic

Why is Gordon Brown being referred to as the Sub-Prime Minister?

That somewhat arthritic signature on the confession you signed back in 1605 should be sufficient identification. It would be hard to simulate without the aid of a rack.

Give our regards to the Conservative Party (if you manage to find them).

Guido, can't you get a better avatar picture ? Who is it, ffs ??

That one might make people think you were a metrosexual dickhead with a goatee beard and a Kevin Pietersen fascination.

Just a thought...

Trouble is there's nothing in Gordon's actual speech that Tories can dis-agree with.Of course it's a complete piece of hokum pitched at "Middle England" not the Labour Conference.

Just watched Des Browne's speech at B'Mouth. It's not him, but the flashes to the audience that amused me. I have never seen such a bunch of bored, po-faced cheering levies in my life. The award to winner of "Mr. Smugness" of 2007 goes to....Geoff Hoon!!!!

I think the Tory Party needs to be rebooted, as it seems to have frozen solid.

Seen the latest price of NR? (not even carrion want to pick over this corpse!)

Still divi's NOT been cancelled, (according to the BBC) just DEFERRED.

HA HA HA

Just looking on the BBC politics page. Nothing on or from the Tories apart from Lord Gilmour's death. Oh, and race-baiter Trevor Phillips wants to rewrite British history to make it more inclusive. New Labour - same old left-wing divisive shit.

What year is it today?

Who's the cunt in the mugshot?

and what's this about a Tory party conference.

A fucking mess that will turn out to be.

You lot are shitting yourselves stupid in case an election is actually called.

Never mind though, Boris will keep us all amused.

What a bunch of wankers.

Where's the Shadow Cabinet is a constant cry? Starved of the oxygen of publicity somebody suggested. More like just starved of oxygen. Hanging up somewhere with oranges in their mouths, dressed only in fishnets and a suspender belt with little heaps of white stuff everywhere.

I should think a foto of the arse would be adequate, - as in facing away into the shadows – characteristic pose eh what Jeeves?

Actually they are doing rather well today - only 5% down. Beaten to the top spot of losers by the homebuilders (stock market obviously expecting a house market crash).

Gary, you realyl are a dick-head aren't you? When Gorgon was elected he was polling 11 points ahead of the Tories. In the latest polls he is only 3 points ahead (unless you include that rather peculiar Sun poll that claimed that Gorgon would be 20 points ahead if he gave us a referendum so we could vote on the EU constitution and prove we didn't actually care about the EU one way or the other - if you believe that one you really are stupid). So on the current trend if he calls an election now he will be lucky if he gets a hung Parliament by the time votes are cast. And what would it buy him he hasn't got already? An extra 2 years on top of the three he's got under his belt? He won't run - he's frit. And if he DOES run he's really is a first class plonker.

By the way, whatever happened to that Blair chappie?

Cheer up everyone - things could be worse...

You could wake up one morning and find that:

(a) you had a peasant's name, like "Gary."

(b) you live in Stoke-on-Trent, an armpit of a town if there ever was one.

(c) you are an ignorant arsehole who nobody pays much attention to.

I will not be attending sweetheart as I refuse to spend any of my hard earned spare time in what can only be described as the greatest shit hole in Europe.

8 points up the swanny and 3 nights in Blackpool - heady days!

Fuck off back to Siberia Blair, and concentrate on installing some central heating in that scheming cavernous-gobbed cow commonly known as your wife, you smarmy little cunt.

Here's a clipping for you, you supercilious little piece of sheep-shit - read it and weep:

Oh dear, if that's true then we are all screwed.

Vista, the only operating system to run more slowly than the 8:02 into London Bridge.

OK 'anonymous', I was a little hasty in calling you all cunts and wankers. I'm sorry.

I really meant the whole party and not just you in here, so please, don't think I was picking on just you.

Once again, my hollowest of apologies.

Just remember who it is that funds your benefits. If all the Tories left the country you socialists would find yourselves without any money to waste.
