Marcus gets serious

Did Marcus Brigstocke know what was coming next?

Was it just an incredibly serendipitous piece of scheduling that resulted in his sketch featuring the:
"open[ing of] the crypt [and releasing] the Tory undead ... the restless, vicious lost souls of nasty judgemental Conservatism ..."
on Radio 4's The Now Show (Friday 11 July 2008; 17:40 mins into show) being followed by ...

... Norman Tebbitt on Any Questions?

Fantastic stuff, Marcus.

People have frighteningly short political memories, and don't forget that there's a whole generation of young voters who don't know anything about the divisive politics of the 1980s and early 1990s, so it's about time someone somewhere jogged our memories.

And while I'm at it, well done to MB for his blistering attack on the car-tax whiners. As MB put it so succinctly:

"Shut up! You myopic doughnuts!"
