We are developing the social individualist meta-context for the future. From the very serious to the extremely frivolous... lets see what is on the mind of the Samizdata people.

Samizdata, derived from Samizdat /n. - a system of clandestine publication of banned literature in the USSR [Russ.,= self-publishing house]

Samizdata quote of the day

We saved the world. I say we party!

– Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Is it just me, or is the thought of Gordon Brown attempting to party even more frightening than the thought of Gordon Brown trying to ‘save the world’.

    The idea is quite terrifying.

  • Does the dour bugger even know how to party? Or is his understanding of the word limited to ‘The Party’?

  • Tony Blair at least went on those weeks in Tuscany over the summer. Tuscany is a little too English middle class a destination for my taste, but the Blairs clearly went on holidays to enjoy themselves. Brown last year went to Southwald in Suffolk for his summer holiday, but came back to London one day into it after something came up. A complete lack of fun – clearly the Brown way of doing things – does not make anyone a better anything.

    Oh go on then, just one more dry sherry, then it’s back to cooking the books…

  • Gordon Brown is an utter Philistine.His policies has closed our pubs,despoiled our countryside with his insane windmills.in the name of saving the environment.The Tosser even tried to sell some of our historic national silver wear,the man is a complete boor.
    I bet he would welsh on his round.

    His policies has closed our pubs…

    I think you’ll find they were his predecessor’s policies.

    I think a party might be a good alternative to any more world-saving from Mr Brown

  • I don’t know what you mean?.. He’s a regular on the London Drum and Bass scene. Gets well into it.

  • “I think you’ll find they were his predecessor’s policies.”

    Blair did nothing without Brown’s say sot,he Treasury ruled the roost .But don’t forget the tax hikes , council taxes pecksniffian regulations destructive of business.Not forgetting the fascist dictatorship in Brussels the rear end of which |Brown kisses

    The wheels still spinning but the hamster is dead. Browns idea of a party would be 2 lumps of coal on the grate, but only if he could pinch the coal from the public for free.

    Im actualy enjoying our new state government here in Western Australia, why?

    Because they have done nearly nothing newsworthy in 6 months. An ambition all pollies should aim for.

    A party with Buffy might be fun. Only a lynching party could be fun with brown.

  • Timothy

    Trying to imagine Brown partying is rather like trying to imagine Mr Bean attempting to dance.

    Mr Bean’s way of saying good bye is to put up two fingers.
