They're His, I Tell You, All His!!!!

When you look from pig to man and man to pig and can't tell the difference it's time to.......rebrand!!! New Pigs, David Cameron's Pigs?

Well, Blair did it, why shouldn't Cameron have a bash?
When Blair wanted the Labour Party to ditch Clause 4 and go right-wing to attract the Middle England vote, the devotion of Daily Mail readers and the votes of those "considerably richer than yow!" he came up with the wheeze of "rebranding" (I spit, cough and grimace as I type that word).
No doubt the lounge lizards in marketing rejected ideas such as "Corrupt Labour", "War Labour", "Capitalist Labour" and "Money, Money, Money Labour" because, while accurately portraying the way Blair wanted to take the party, they might put off the eight people in those targeted heartlands who still had some morals.
The result was the birth of "New" Labour. "New" didn't give the game away but did legally cover the fact that things were about to do a complete U-turn so that the hoardes of existing Labour voters couldn't go running to trading standards.
Well, last night David Cameron unveiled HIS rebranding wheeze. Now, his desire to change things was fostered for completely different reasons to Blair's. Blair was/is/always will be a right-wing Tory who wants this country to be exactly the same as the USA, if not the 51st state, so he wanted to adopt policies to suit his ends. Cameron, on the other hand, suddenly found himself leading a party with absolutely no policies - because New Labour had nicked them all. What to do?
Well, HIS lounge lizards came up with tag lines such as "Caring" and "Inclusive" Conservatism (like Cuddly Fascism?). That meaningless bullshit would tide Cameron over for while but he needed to fully rebrand and last night, at the Ealing and Southall bye-election (I bet the people of Ealing were dead chuffed when that hook-up was announced!), he unveiled the new, trading standards-immune monica the Tories are supposedly going to go with from now on. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, we now have "David Cameron's Conservatives"!! Not the party members' Conservative party, you notice. No, just his.
I suppose, if there is anything to entropy, I should be pleased because this will signal the start of the Tories turning into Socialists in the wake of Labour having become Tories. I fear that is not going to happen, however. No, we now have just two parties effectively in the running to govern this country and they're both exactly the same!! The game's the same, only the names have changed.
Ho hum. Dave's Raves from the Grave can go to Grantham.
