Judgement time. Sorry if researching this one has exposed you to aspects of the British political classes you hadn't previously considered - but hey, they are an endless provider of entertainment.

My first thought when this picture was suggested to me was a flashback to the big political story of winter 2014: "Prime Minister Cameron inspects the new flood defences at Conservative Central Office".

And so to the results.


Not in the main competition, but an honourable mention to Celttooth for his Animal Farm reference: "Two legs bad, Four legs good!"

In third place (again), our perpetual bridesmaid Chris S, with: "David, if you want my vote, these should be blue not red!"

Runner up, though I think a little bit of Fat Cat crept into the gene pool, is Anniet: "Occasionally, between trough visits, the inbred do venture beyond their gene pool - into ours."

And our winner, for getting just the right note of anguish into the title of the book that started all this off, is Angela: "Call me Dave. No, seriously. CALL ME, Dave!!!"

Congrats Angela, a PM will be on its way soonest.

Oh dear. I'm sorry Graham.

Is anybody able to see this picture? I can see it just fine from my computer.

Is there anybody out there with tech skills who can fix this picture so that everybody can see it.

Seriously???!!! The link doesn't work for you???

I am so sorry. I thought that Richard's link would work for everybody. It worked perfectly for me when he sent it to me in a pm.

I genuinely do not know how to fix this! I will ask Eric to look into this tonight if nobody is able to fix it before then.
