The Tories: officially cool

On yesterday evening's 'Question Time' Tory party co-chairman Dr Liam Fox likened Tony Blair and Gordon Brown to Lee Bowyer and Kieron Dyer because they feud and then engage in a suspicious and very public show of unity.

This was a very clever way for Dr Fox to demonstrate that his party are "down" with the people, showing solidarity with an entire country united in finding my beloved Newcastle Utd a laughing stock.

Well, you can certainly count on my vote on the strength of that particular witticism.
