Prezza to the rescue…
Firmly in the ‘as if he hasn’t got enough problems’ category, just when our PM probably thought things couldn’t get much worse, up rides Prezza to the rescue.
Prezza, of course, is the bulimic ex deputy-PM and office-junior shagger who pretty much single-handedly kept the Conservative Party in business during the dark post-’97 years with his blunders, multiple Jags and mangled Latin syntax.
“It’s good to be back on terra cotta”, he once proclaimed on his return from a ministerial trip to the Maldives, during which he dived the coral reefs, occasionally emerging like some demented whale to inform a rapt public that they should not take dive holidays because the reefs were in danger.
Johnny P is joined in his Campaign for a Labour Fourth Term by Alistair Campbell, the man for did more than anyone except Blair (and Prezza) to destroy new Labour.
Campbell’s self-serving antics and all-too-obvious spinning served his own career very well, but undermined his boss’ and party’s credibility. Campbell became the story, not the messenger, leaving a wrecked government behind as he motored off to a career as a B-list sleb and commentator.
Also on the Prezza campaign is Richard Caborn (who?) and Glennys Kinnock. ‘Nuf said.
