Update on randy Mandy and his green shandy

Temporal Lordy Peter Mandelson has so often berated his 'people' in his role as Minister of Silly Threats (see below). His latest period of trough-feeding has been done without even the need for him to be elected by the people.
Why bother?
It's only democracy!
Anyway, crass democracy begets direct-action democracy. My favourite direct-action demo crew, Plane Stupid (see old story "plane stupid yet brilliant") refused to swallow Mandy's condescending sputum and in fact returned the favour by spewing green pudding on His Lordsh*t, giving him a technicolor raincoat to spice up his bland, black mortician's garb. According to the SUN, this is "sending shock-waves across London."
Reality-show winner Garth Gates, who is staring in the West-end show "Joseph and his colourladen jacket", or some crap like that, was worried about losing his staring role to the former (unelected) E.U. Minister for Shady Deals with Russian Oligarchs. (see old story 'Middle earth')
"I know people see guys like me as johnny-come-latelies and shameless self-promoters, but politicians are the real whores. His Mandyship could send me to Guantanamo if he wanted," quipped GG, on a fag break.

Update: Historians react to this earth-shattering event
This was an auspicious occasion, according to Oxford Prof Dand Ruff. He noticed that it is surprisingly close to the Ides of March as well as St. Paddy's. That adds historical significance to the attempted assassination of the Minister's ego through the use of GREEN pudding. Interestingly, the minister was heard retorting characteristically to his attacker,
"Et tu, you bruuuute?"
much like Julius Ceasar, even though his attacker was a woman.

History does often repeat itself. Autocratic, self-important, not to mention unelected, politicians are often knocked off.

Checkitout: Google "Ides of March", okay?

Middle-earth political tit for tat for naught

Those who are not yet convinced that British politicians are either corrupt, crazy or 'having a laugh', are discussing the latest point-scoring competition between the two top parties. It basically has to do with both a Labour and a Tory politician currying favour with a Russian oligarch (with criminal ties, according to the US) on his yacht moored at Corfu. This is little more than a score-settling between private-school boys (including some of the other Brits who were present, and who are the ones who ratted out the politicians). In the end, it's zero sum gain because other stories of both parties' corruption have come to the fore as well.
The one such sordid case that has not been mentioned, outside of one tv show, is that of Lord Somesuch who is a citizen, but also a super-rich 'non-resident' tax-dodger (how can he be a UK politician, you may ask?). Still, he bought his lordship (which is apparently illegal) and is funnelling more 'donations' to Labour (again illegal for a non-resident) through a shell game with his various companies, British and non. Now, that's interesting and proof exists to back it up. Why is nobody else talking about it?
Back to the previous case, there is no hard evidence that anybody did anything wrong, so, why the fuss? Is it for purposes of distraction? It seems that the Labour guy, who had been seconded to the EU as trade minister, seems to have done the Ruskie a favour by lowering tarriffs on the aluminum he was exporting to the EU. Was this done illegally? What was the pay-off? Money for Labour, which is near bankruptcy, or access to high-society lady-boys for the minister?
Side note: it has always been British policy that the Ruskies were not to have access to the Mediterranean. Most recently it was sorted post-WW2 at Yalta (which wasn't enough to convince the Greeks who had a 4-year civil war anyway). Now it seems that not only are they out on the Med, but they are also 'drowning' 'officers' of the British government. Vodka, Meester Bond?
