Out With The New, In With The Old

New Labour 1994 - 2007 RIP



Tony Blair's political corpse hadn't even minutes to cool before his party dumped the phrase "New Labour" like a live hand grenade and returned to the old red rose logo.

This may herald a revival of the giddy idiocies of Old Labour, but given Mr. Blair's unquestioning fascination with modernity and all that mischief it's caused, the move still has a certain natural justice to it.

    What's with British political parties and flora? And for that matter, what's with US parties and fauna?

    Who writes this stuff!?

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.
