BYE BYE BADDERS!
POSTED BY THE BLOG AUTHOR:
One doesn't like to crow, but really who hasn't cheered and whooped with delight that Balls and Badders Education Bill has been filed carefully away in a Westminster Wheelie Bin!
I strongly suspect Balls will shortly drop any and all involvement with education quicker than you can say, "Who ate all the pies!"
It was a means to an end. Something along the lines of "Look how tough I can be to drive policy through. Wouldn't I make an ideal choice for Labour leader...."
And you know what? I think he'll be an EXCELLENT choice for Labour leader. That should set the capstone on any chance whatsoever of a Labour victory for the foreseeable future and protect the rights of home edders for a very long time. In other words, I would think Balls was totally unelectable as Prime Minister!
How popular is he at Westminster? Well, my sources tell me that he was half choking on a large mouthfull of cake a little while ago and MPs of all parties were queueing up around the block to whack him on the back.... some of them brought clubs....
And as for Badders? I still bear the man no personal animosity whatsoever. I've poked fun, but I don't think I've ever been malicious. I just think its time he faced facts. Your educational beliefs belong to a previous era, Graham. I think it's pipe and slippers time, I honestly do.
So - to my readers and followers, many thanks for your very kind comments. I hope first and foremost that I made you smile and for those with a vested political interest (you know who you are), I hope I made you think.
So now its goodbye from me.... and thank God, its goodbye from them!

Thank you so much for the much needed laughs!
Well said.
ReplyDeleteThank you for giving us all a good laugh when we needed it - hope you can now spend time doing what you want to.
I don't think you were malicious - people always need satire which is why it is written.
Good luck for the future.
