TorySex. When your kink is not ok.

Did we really need (or want) to know? It's just not a mental image I ever wanted, and I'm not equipped to cope with it...

Puppet Porn...

Did our esteemed former PM keep his glasses on? Enquiring minds want to know...

I have to say, it was information I could also have done without, especially over breakfast. But I can't help being mildly disappointed that this story didn't break when "Spitting Image" was still on air...

I think it's a real shame that we haven't still got Spitting Image - yes, it sagged a lot when we had a bunch of faceless nobodies in power, but just think of the vast possibilities now...

Osama Bin Laden, all beard and turban, tip-toeing past in the background of sketches that have nothing to do with him.

David Blunkett (possibly accompanied by very apologetic looking guide dog).

Tony Blair (with manic smile that appears/disappears suddenly enough to cause whiplash).

GWB. 'Nuff said.

Ariel Sharon done in "godfather" mafia don style.

Charles "I coulda been a contenda" Kennedy, an amiably crap would-be PM, possibly flanked by a super-competent Menzies Campbell.

Condoleeza Rice and Donald Rumsfeld plotting world domination then suddenly hiding the plans and nervously grinning when Colin Powell walks into the room.

Dick Cheney, hidden in a secret location.

Claire Short, threatening resignation in a Bonnie Langford "I'll scweam and scweam" sort of way.

Prince Charles, with his vegetable collection ghostwriting letters to the papers.

Vladimir Putin, with his "it is a point of principle", and hand outstretched awaiting dollars.

Hell, you could probably even get mileage out of Pervez Musharraf. "I know nothing about Al-Qaida fugitives" (swiftly pushes Osama back into cupboard full of junk, using butt of rifle grabbed from cupboard, straightens suit and returns to speech) "nor about these terrorists in India" (realises he now has a black balaclava from cupboard draped over one shoulder, and that he's holding a rifle) "ah... I know how this may look, but..."

Oh, and Ian Duncan Smith and the Nobodies, holding shadow cabinet meetings in a vast but desolate building with one bare light bulb and tumbleweeds rolling past...

A belated but sincere thank you for this! I shall probably spend the rest of the evening giggling at inopportune moments, especially about Osama Bin Laden.

Re: the shadow(y) cabinet. Following the conference performance, I think we could expand upon this idea by having Thatch sitting in a Blofeld type chair with a remote control....
