Dave the Rave?

This has been building up for a few weeks and now Guido is getting calls from Dead Tree Press diarists, it is probably time to bring it out into the open.  Is this a picture of a long-haired 22 year-old David Cameron?

Dave the Rave

The pictures are taken from a video of a Sunrise Party held in the summer of 1988.   You decide…

    God this is so brilliant! Pictures which may, or may not, be of the leader of the opposition! With long hair! At a rave! 21 years ago!

    Fuck me it’s hardly Watergate is it? Democracy in tatters. Economy shafted for a generation. MPs corruption rife. Individual rights trampled on and this is as good as it gets? Grainy pictures from 21 years ago?

      Well, you start referring to people’s countries as part of a “crucible of terror” and what do you expect?

      Ignorant fuckwit that he was, he thought they’d welcome him in regardless.

      I hope they blow the fucker up whilst he’s out there. But not in a serious way that makes him some form of New Labour martyr who gets put on a pedestal just because he’s dead. I want him blown up in ridiculous fashion that just makes people laugh when they hear of it and smile forevermore at their fond memories of Gordon Brown’s comical death.

      Or maybe he could just shit himself to death like Elvis did instead.

He graduated in ’88, so assuming he just spent that summer getting mashed it’s technically possible, though he joined Conservative Research Department later in the same year, so can we imagine them in the Thatcher days taking him on looking like a hippie?

And I think it has been a quite an interesting day so far – I’ve watched the MEP’s 7am Friday morning sign on and exodus on Plato’s site and listened to Dr David Starkey ( even though I said I wouldn’t because he once trashed Richard III) as he trashed Gordon Brown on Question Time-and I think I might be quite a fan now, and the days still young!

      “did Gordon ever smile, really smile”

      Actually, he did. I spend a fair bit of time in S Africa (I do believe that’s permissible now) and they rerun the end of the last World Cup from time to time. During the on-field post-match stuff, the Springboks (no, I will NOT say Proteas) are celebrating their win against England (as who would not?) and our Scottish Prime Minister is actually on the field, standing close to the Saffers and even more delirious than they are. His joy was unconfined, and totally genuine. A picture I don’t remember seeing in our press or on the Beeb, for some reason.

    Dolly - There’s that creep who nicked our chips says:

    Love Chris Huhne’s tongue in cheek comment today regarding Jacqui Fivebellies’ new draconian plans:

    Liberal Democrat home affairs spokesman Chris Huhne said: “I am pleased that the Government has climbed down from the Big Brother plan for a centralised database of all our emails and phone calls.

    “However, any legislation that requires individual communications providers to keep data on who called whom and when will need strong safeguards on access.

    “It is simply not that easy to separate the bare details of a call from its content. What if a leading business person is ringing Alcoholics Anonymous, or a politician’s partner is arranging to hire a porn video?

    “There has to be a careful balance between investigative powers and the right to privacy.”
