Readers who are not in the UK will quickly get fed up with my UK General Election posts and in my 'real' job i have to be fair, balanced and impartial to all sides and somehow ignore that polling maestro John Curtice places Labour on a 99% chance of victory and Rishi Sunak's Conservatives have as much chance of winning as finding a diet sheet taped to Donald Trump's fridge door but this is my blog and i can say whatever the bloody hell i want about any of the parties and believe me, the next 6 weeks are going to deliver some comedy gold.
Already we have had Rishi in the rain, Rishi being questioned by 'workers' at a distribution plant who turned out to all be Conservative Councillors, Rishi asking a group of Welsh if they are looking forward to the Euro's when they never qualified but even worse is the Rishi request that he wants to have no fewer than six TV debates with the Labour leader – one every week. SIX!!!
Drab Rishi Sunak versus beige Keir Starmer would be arguably the least watchable thing on TV and when we have Snooker and Golf on it at the moment that's really saying something but i intend to leave the serious stuff (mostly) for the other blogs and concentrate on the comedy we have heading our way until July 4th and as the hapless Liz Truss and walking gaffe Boris Johnson are sure to be unable to not stick their noses in while Keir Starmer tries to sit on his own loose cannons, it's not going to be short of cringey and laugh out loud but not in a good way moments.
The next 6 weeks will drag and be tedious and the Conservatives will tell us how great they have been and Labour will tell us how great they are going to be and the Lib Dems will be popping up to remind us that they are still actually there but if we can take the piss out of the lot of them it will make it a lot easier to get to July 5th and Nigel Farage's 'Talking Pints' can regain its proper place as the most tedious thing on the TV.
