    Nick Griffin, who was hoping to

    win over the public with his dev-

    ilish good looks and impish per-

    sonality.)

    Unquestionably, conventional

    wisdom had it that these debates would

    be a major triumph for Cameron. All he

    needed to do was show his suspiciously

    glossy forehead on stage and his mainopponent, with the face of a depressed,

    alcoholic Fat Controller would have lost

    as modern democracy did its job.

    However, this didnt happen. Instead, the

    debates saw Clegg rise to the fore of na-

    tional politics as Cleggmania swept the

    nation off its feet like an underwhelming

    victory by Andy Murray. Clegg inces-

    santly attacked the old parties and their

    dirty style of politicking, presenting

    THE election is once again upon us

    and this years is closer and more in-

    triguing than any Zimbabwean

    equivalent. Following the televised

    prime ministerial debates, British

    politics has taken historic leap in the

    light: newly polished and prepped to

    assume its squeamish position under

    the glare of the studio lights. The ex-citement was hard to contain. It was a

    chance for Gordon Brown, David

    Cameron and Nick Clegg (leader of

    the Liberal Democrats, apparently) to

    connect with the electorate and im-

    press with their firebrand rhetoric.

    (There are other parties you could

    vote for, obviously. But they're ex-

    cluded from the debates and therefore

    no longer exist a terrible blow for

    himself as a hopeful white Obama.

    Ironically, the fact that most of the

    electorate hadnt even heard of him

    before the debates made his cam-

    paign all the more successful, afford-

    ing him with a freshness which

    couldnt be matched. Although his

    critics may say his act has gotten

    tedious and uninspiring, one cannot

    deny that the election is now an ex-

    citing three-horse race.

    So, whos it to be? The polls say that

    Cameron is currently in the lead,

    followed by the energised Clegg and

    trailed by Brown who seems to havean allergy to luck after the

    bigotgate gaff. (For a provocative,

    cerebral and entertaining analysis of

    each candidates chances see pages 2

    -3) Then, of course, theres the pos-

    sibility of a hung parliament surely

    a prospect less inviting than a cup-

    cake made by Peter Mandelson.

    Whatever the result, its clear that

    British politics will never be the

    same again.

    Whether it be drunken chavs

    or pretentious socialites,

    Gordon Brown is often the

    topic of cynical hysteria

    bounced around a conversa-

    tion. The Cyclopes has in-

    deed had a hard premiership,

    with an economic climate

    that can only be blamed on

    the previous Chancellor....

    oh wait. This weeks events

    brought Brown to a newlow. We are not referring to

    another humiliating loss to

    Nick Clegg, a man who the

    Gazette featured only a

    month ago in the article

    Who is Nick Clegg; but of

    course to the withdrawal of

    Peppa Pig, the popular chil-

    drens cartoon who pulled

    out of appearing at a Labour

    election event highlighting thepartys policy on families. The

    devastating blow to the Flashs

    campaign could be costly, a La-

    bour party spokesman told the

    Gazette Peppa and Gordon

    were extremely close, Gordon

    was known to call up Peppa

    with questions about the reces-

    sion and even basic economic

    problems in the early hours.

    The partys morale but most

    significantly integrity has most

    defiantly suffered from

    Peppas withdrawal.

    surprised at Cleggs TV debate

    success. Surely no one really be-

    lieved that the Gordon Brown cha-

    risma robot or Questionably Shiny

    Dave would (or could for that mat-

    ter) awe us with their magnificent

    oratory? It seems however Nick is

    lacking a vital component in hisarmoury. In an attempt to bolster

    support we saw Gordon Brown

    bring out his wife Sarah (to make

    him seem human), Dave and Sam-

    Cam apparently work as a team,

    and Nick - as we all know has his

    dependable Vince. (Incidentally

    Uncle Vince Cable has recently

    re-released his famous single For

    the love of money feat MC Merv)

    But the lack of public appearancesof the Cleggete - Miriam - has

    caused some political punters to

    question her very existence, or per-

    Like a white man on crack Nick

    Clegg has stormed to the front

    in the sprint that is the election

    campaign in recent weeks.

    Cleggmania has been sweeping

    the country and the Liberals

    ratings are higher than the time

    of Menzies Campbells birth, soany piece on the Lib Dems

    should rightly start by address-

    ing Nicks Cleggtastic perform-

    ances in the prime ministerial

    debates in recent weeks. This is

    surely the crucible to their in-

    creased popularity - at one point

    Clegg even led the fabled

    worm polls. It is fair to say

    that Nick Clegg has revitalised

    the Liberalss image. (Peopleactually recognising him now is

    clearly a bonus). But to be hon-

    est, should we really have been

    haps that she just has a monobrow.But one things for sure its defi-

    nitely become acceptable to vote

    for the Liberal Democrats, unless

    you live in Sheffield that is.

    hugged hoodies; he went green; heeven visited a council estate without

    insisting on having a tetanus jab first.

    All seemed well in Conservative-land

    George Osborne even had a successful

    stint in the Christmas pantomime season

    2008. The people of Britain were se-

    duced, and began to think of this man,

    webbed feet and all, as the best candi-

    date to lead their nation out of the eco-

    nomic crisis (or at least better than the

    Cyclops and the other chappy).But then his, and the Conservatives,

    true colours began to emerge. The sup-

    posed hoodies were actually undercover

    Etonians. His house was found to be

    powered by burning the corpses of

    Syndactyly (the condition of having two

    or more fused digits) has experienced

    something of a nadir since the antics of

    Joseph Stalin. In fact, quackers have

    had a less than positive impact on hu-

    mankind in recent centuries. Whether it

    be the Terror of Maximilien Robespi-

    erre or the horrors of Michael Bay, it

    seems that they are determined to de-

    stroy all that the modern civilisation

    holds dear.

    All this leads one to question the politi-

    cal expediency of the Conservative

    Party having a leader afflicted by this

    deformity. No doubt they have pushed

    the envelope before. Benjamin Disraeli

    was the first Jewish PM (non-

    practicing) and Margaret Thatcher was

    the first female PM (non-feminine),

    whilst Iain Duncan Smith was the first

    party leader made of cardboard. They

    even released a manifesto (1970)

    through the medium of dance. However,

    surely putting David Duckhouse Cam-

    eron on the ticket is just one step too

    far.After narrowly defeating the Evil Grim-

    ace in the closest fought Party Leader-

    ship battle in decades Cameron worked

    hard to cleanse the Party image: he

    working class single mothers. He wasrecorded describing the north of Eng-

    land as worse than Mordor and Nazi

    Germany combined. A few months

    ago it looked as if Dave would romp

    home to victory; they could still win

    with a majority, albeit a narrow one.

    This is truly worrying due to the prece-

    dent set by others of his kind, and this

    reporter can only hope that Britain

    under Cameron doesnt suffer like the

    USSR under Stalin (unless the faminesthat killed 30 million in Ukraine can be

    repeated in Scotland... that wouldnt be

    so bad).

    Pope Benedict

    has caused con-

    troversy by

    declaring that

    there is no truth

    in reports of

    child molesta-

    tion by Catholic

    priests. Accord-

    ing to the Holy

    Father, the

    victims have

    fabricated a massive conspiracy to help them triumph in talent

    competitions such as the X-Factor in Britain and American Idol

    in the USA. Successful acts on these shows have generally been

    backed up by sob-stories aimed at pulling on the heartstrings

    of sympathetic voters. For example, Same Difference played

    the Fritzl children of Britain card in 2007 and finished 3rd,

    despite being quite clearly the least talented humans of all time.

    Nevertheless,

    Bennys claims are some-

    what difficult to support dueto the huge number of cases

    and the physical evidence. It

    seems that this is just the

    latest of a series of strange

    outbursts by the former Hit-

    ler Youth member (he was

    forced...). During his Christ-

    mas 2009 address he pro-

    claimed that vegetarians had

    deposed the Devil as the

    biggest threat to Christen-

    dom. Just last week he an-

    nounced that Jesus Christs

    name was to be changed to

    John Parkin with immediate

    affect.

    All this leads the WCG to

    question whether the worlds

    largest religious organisation

    can really be led by a man

    who is so clearly senile.Surely it is time to replace

    Benedict with someone more

    in touch with the modern

    world. Because of this we

    have compiled a five man

    (obviously) list of potentially

    better candidates: 1) Barack

    Black Jesus Obama; 2)

    Bruce Forsyth, perfect for

    adding some young blood; 3)

    Big Bird, 4) Gordon Brown,

    hes gonna have a lot of free

    time soon; 5) Menzies

    Campbell, he could really

    get Catholics back to their

    basic principle, having been

    one of Jesus 12 apostles.

    Straight talking comments from everyones favourite

    nuke-head...

    Mahmoud on... FACIAL HAIR

    How can you judge a man? His watch, his car, his

    property (donkey, house, wives)? No; far more im-

    portant is his facial hair. This is how you judge a

    man. A man without facial hair is a man without

    honour. Think of the worlds great men Hitler, Sta-

    lin, Bin Laden, Thatcher they all have glorious

    whiskers. A full-faced man is a successful man, a

    fertile man, a happy man. With facial hair one canwake up in the morning, open ones bedroom win-

    dow, and shout I AM A MAN. Hairless men can-

    not say this. They must wonder the roads lonely, without a beard to comfort

    them, hold them, caress them. I feel sorry for these men. They are destined to a

    life of failure and poverty.

    For tips on how to grow and maintain facial hair buy my new book, from my

    popular Mahmoud on... range,Mahmoud on Facial Hair: from shadow to

    mane. It is available online and in all good book stores, and has an RRP of just

    7.99. Also available: Mahmoud on Israel, Mahmoud on Democracy, and

    many more...

    SPORTSFootball Special: Was Socrates Offside?

    In the Monty Python classic Greeks v. German philosophers football fixture,questions have been raised about whether Socrates winning goal was onside.

    In the original, refereed by Confucius, Captain Nobby Hegel led out a Ger-

    man team that incongruously included one real footballer - the great Franz

    Beckenbauer, the only player wearing a football strip. The Greeks, clad in

    togas, stood around thinking, as did the Germans in frock coats. Nothing hap-

    pened until in the final minute surprise selection Archimedes shouted

    Eureka! and encouraged his side to start kicking the ball towards the goal.

    After a neat one-two between Archimedes and Socrates, Heraclitus set up

    Socrates for a superb diving header past German goalie Leibniz that was

    possibly the most important goal of his career, the commentator declared.

    Meanwhile Marx who had come on for a lacklustre Wittgenstein - claimedoffside. Replays on YouTube now seem to vindicate him. Meanwhile Hegel

    argued that reality was merely an a priori adjunct of non-natural ethics, and

    Kant, via the categorical imperative, asserted that ontologically it exists only

    in the imagination. Fair point.
