David Cameron’s Webcam Now Windows Compatible
David Cameron launched his new WebCameron site, today, with the announcement that he is now 100% compatible with Windows XP. ‘I’m delighted to make this announcement because for too long, politicians have not been thinking about the end user’s experience and all that nonsense about drivers and whether you’ve got the right upgrades. We in the Conservatives want to cut all that out. By ensuring that I’m plug and play, I hope that more people will pick up the message that this is the new Tory party; cleaner, greener, and with more than eight fantastic USB ports they can use from the day we’re elected.’
The camera is attached to Mr. Cameron’s head using a temporary wood glue and will record his every movement over the next six months. ‘It’s a trial,’ he admitted. ‘We’ll see what kind of quality material comes out of it until Christmas and then we’ll think about using something a bit more permanent — and environmentally friendly — to attach it to my head for the long term.’ Asked if the party had yet to form a policy on what kind adhesive they might choose, Cameron said: ‘We’re thinking about using six inch nails but I must stress that this isn’t a firm policy commitment at this stage.’

You know, I can’t help thinking that look really “completes” him…

How dare people slander the Conservative Party leader in such a way. Just because a new medium of contacting the electorate has become available, does that really mean that he is all bad? If so, then why are those who broadcast on radio and television mediums not also slandered?
Blair and Brown would look rather nice with little slanderous comments and poor-pictures cheaply and unprofessionally layered over an image of them.
Poor show indeed. The makers of this horrid blog should remove the article and issue an apology.

[Rolls eyes in disbelief]
Am I to take it that the Tories are having a hands-on morning with this ‘new’ technology at their conference?
If so, then may I quote David Cameron’s speech from yesterday, in which he said that Britain is a nation that is ‘inventive, creative, irreverent and daring’. Well, I like to think I’m being ‘inventive, creative, irreverent, and daring’. In fact, quite a modern Tory at heart.
In the off chance that ‘Tory’ visits again, perhaps they’d like to look at the much more extensive ridiculing of the other political parties I’ve put here over the last few weeks. In David Cameron’s admirable attempt to modernize the party, perhaps a sense of humour might made a compulsory part of party membership. As for this being a ‘horrid blog’, I honestly think that this is one of the kinder and more family-orientated places you’ll find on the web.

Your picture shows a “Tories for windows” badge, surely this proves that this image is a fake! The Tories have yet to formulate an opinion on windows, as Cameron himself said recently “windows are good but doors have their place in society too”.

LOL. Hallelujah! Praise the Lord! I believe in humanity’s capacity to be humorous once again. Thank you Gary.
Of course, you’re absolute right. I should have added that Windows compatibility is pending. They’ve encountered some problems with Oliver Letwin that cause PCs to get ‘blue rinses’.

I thought Shameron was a clone and then I seen a documentary about him, seems Steve Hilton is the puppet Master wireless transmitting his PR regime on Cammers, powered by Windows XP!
