Does This Mean Curtains For Hazel Blears’ Deputy Leadership Capaign?
Hazel Blears’ bid to become the Labour Party’s deputy leader has taken a knock after an unfortunate choice of clothing led to her being ignored at a gathering of party members.
‘It was like she just disappeared into the background,’ said Mr. Stan Stokes, 72, a Hackney councillor who attended the Friday night meeting. ‘I thought I was having a flashback to my years in Korea when I’d often come across camouflaged Chinese soldiers. The only difference is that they weren’t as short as Hazel and were a lot less communist…’
The meeting descended into farce as party members complained about an odd squeaking noise coming from the curtains. The mystery was only solved when the building’s caretaker discovered Ms. Blears standing in front of the green leaf patterned drapes, apparently half-way through her speech and unaware of any problems.
‘I understand there might have been a slight problem with the venue,’ she later admitted. ‘But this in no way should prevent me from becoming leader of this party. Peter Hain often disappears when he stands near something bright orange and Hillary Benn can’t be seen if the weather turns grey and cloudy.’

Nicely done Sir.
Was a displacement map used on Hazel Bliar’s jacket or did you make the wallpaper from her jacket pattern ?
Did you see her carefully crafted question evasion strategy on Andrew Marr’s programme this morning ?

Glad you like it, Beau.
The whole thing is actually a 3D computer model, set up in Maya, then run through a dozen specially written shaders, and then…
Nah, I just nicked the horrible pattern from her coat.
I didn’t know she was on this morning, so I missed it. I love her bossy routines the best, which fills me with hope that she wins. She’d be a fantastic replacement for Prescott. We’ll have no end of fun with her.

Why does her facial expression and hand jestures remind me of somebody saying “Cor, what a pair!”? somebody just throw the Chipmunk a peanut on the way out please.
