For those of you who don’t know who I’m ranting about when I say the name “Tommy “Ice-cube” Sheridan”, this is his mum singing to him after he called a meeting to form his own wee party when he knew the game was up in the one he had been in before… watch his face… it is priceless!
“To Dream the Impossible Dream” - ie. to win a case even though your lying through your teeth!
Sorry I haven’t been keeping this up to date. I will be in a position to do that better over the next few weeks.
Those of you who have come to this blog via my old one (a year off the booze) may want to know how the booze thing went. Well, I crashed with ten days to go. Why? Well, unexpectedly and through telling lies and accusing others of telling lies and of being plotters, Tommy “soLIdARity” Sheridan won £200 000 from the gutter press - even though the gutter press had got it right about him (if he wants to sue me - go ahead). It wasn’t because of his win perse that I had to sink a pint, no - it was because I knew that this would damage the Left in Scotland even more than he had already.
Well - that was until, after meeting other SSP comrades,I found that actually the SSP is made of sterner stuff. Even though Liar liar pants on fire Tommy is getting a lot of publicity, I found that actually most principled SSP members were staying with the party and turning up the heat on the established parties. Our standing in the polls rose another 4% after Tommy looked like he was going to split the party (he did split the party - he took a few hundred people with him, of whom I can only say, “You’ve been had!”).
The new “Solidarity” party has been set up by the Sheridan because he realised he could not win the convenorship of the party he was part of. It made me think. What if Charles Kennedy had have done the same thing? His party could have been called, “The Drink”. The Lib Dems would have been split between an alchoholic or a doddery old right wing man. Thankfully, the SSP have a straight choice - fall in line behind a lying, abusive ”Leader” or remain part of an inclusive party. Hmmmm…
Anyway - I’m in a new school. Nice school. The class are wild! My “McCrone” or non-contact time, is this afternoon, so I’m going home to lie down in a quiet room.
Oh - and today I’ll be mostly eating cheese. Could someone tell me what the f*** else do sandwich makers think vegetarians eat…?!
