NICK Clegg, the LibDem leader says he will listen to “ordinary people”. And in listening to ordinary people, he and politicians like him will “act on what they hear”. Act… like what actors do.
So here’s the Lib Dem campaign video in which ordinary actors speaking from ordinary scripts tell us what they want…

Nick Clegg For a Faceless Britain
NICK Clegg is calling.
So Nick Clegg plans to annoy the hell out of 250,000 people after his speech by cold calling homes in the Lib Dems 50 target seats.
Obviously this isn’t the same Nick Clegg who launched the ‘Faceless Britain’ campaign in February against the Government’s alleged reliance on call centres and the lack of “face-to-face contact.”
He said at the launch: “With every year that goes by, more and more services that used to offer face to face contact are being replaced by systems that are centralised, remote and inhuman. We are seeing the progression of an unaccountable state, creating increasingly remote systems that are divorced from the people they are supposed to serve.”
Obviously…

The Green Shirts Are Coming To Get You
FIRST the warmists came for the Australians, and I did not speak out…
But when a few courageous dissenters do indeed speak out - or simply fail to match their global warming prayers with deeds, Media With(out a) Conscience calls on the authorities to persecute them:
The only sensible course for a World threatened by global warming is to RAPIDLY force climate criminal Australia to a world average per capita greenhouse pollution level by Sanctions, Boycotts, Green Tariffs, Reparation Demands and legal action over Australian Climate Genocide at the International Criminal Court.
That tramping sound I hear: it’s the Greenshirts, isn’t it?
Ve have vays of making you cooler…

Nick Clegg’s Moral Nightmare In GQ
THIS is an extract form Liberal DEmoctrat leader nick Clegg’s interview in GQ amgazine. It is beyond parody:
Piers Morgan: Was the invasion of Iraq illegal?
Nick Clegg: There’s a strong case to suggest it was in breach of UN resolutions, yes.PM: So, assuming it was illegal, would it be justified for Iraqis to exact revenge on Britain?
NC: I don’t think you remedy an act of violence like that.PM: If Iraq had invaded Britain illegally, you would have said it was morally justified for us to attack them back, wouldn’t you?
NC: Yes, I probably would.PM: So why is it not morally justified for them to attack us back?
NC: I wish it was that simple.Posted: 9th, April 2008 | In: Beyond Parody, Liberal Democrats, Nick Clegg, Politicians | Comment | Follow the Comments on our RSS feed:RSS 2.0

STEVE Webb, the Liberal Democrat’s environment spokesman, is sat on the GMTV Sunday sofa talking of his boss, Nick Clegg.
Says he: “Nick is experimenting with some sort of low-carbon moped for getting around London, so I’m sure there is photograph coming out of that.”
And one that should be reproduced for years and years and years to come…

Good God, It’s Mike Huckabee And Nick Clegg
“NEW LIB DEM BOSS: I DON’T BELIEVE IN GOD,” says the Mirror.
The new leader of the LibDems is, of course, Mr Nick, and what Nick actually says is: “I am not an active believer but the last thing I would do when talking or thinking about religion is approach it with a closed heart or a closed mind.”
Religion in always a tricky issue for politicians both here and in the US. And we tune into a new TV ad from Republican Mike Huckabee, the former Baptist preacher.
Huckabee tells us that what truly matters this holiday season is not politics but the birth of Christ. “And on behalf of all of us, God bless and Merry Christmas,” says Huckabee.
Behind Huckabee there appears to be a white cross, which he says are just shelves. But is Huckabee sending out a subliminal message, engaging in dog whistle politics?
It was former Nebraska Senator Bob Kerrey, a supporter of Hillary Clinton, who opined: “It’s probably not something that appeals to him, but I like the fact that his name is Barack Hussein Obama, and that his father was a Muslim and that his paternal grandmother is a Muslim. There’s a billion people on the planet that are Muslims, and I think that experience is a big deal.”
Dog whistle politics. Bringing up a “bad” fact and saying it’s good. Innuendo. But does any of it matter? Do voters care what religion their elected leaders hold true?
