Werewolf: From The Hood: Striking Comedy Gold

Last Month's Werewolf: From The Hood: The Battle Of No Oil
In twenty ten BP caused a slick
With an oil well they built off the mighty Mississip’.
The platform blew apart at the seams
And sank in a fire you could see from New Orleans.

I kept delaying blogging about the last one because I wanted to write something medium-length about the hilarious historical revisionism involved in the 'British Version'. Long story short, read the end of that column, the watch this:

Werewolf » From the Hood: Boraxing poetical
I basically finished it on the Monday so it was kind of maddening to watch Gerry's side of the mining debate get even weirder. As, in Parliament, holding up pictures of Labour MPs in mines to show their contradictory behavior, viz: not being against all mining at the same time as not wanting to dig up the entire country.
But I had more than enough verses as it was.
So it's also occurred to me, further to the image, it's still not clear whether whether Gerry is trying to get us to dig mines or to lead us down the rabbit hole.
Anyway, between the mining and a certain person's outraged status updates on the welfare, I had a number of short, daft quotes for politicians. Which in turn required – as a matter of necessity – a rather obvious tribute to Whim Wham.
Anyone who can spot the edits since they went up wins a clearly having too much time on their hands.

I've occasionally made images for Scoop in advance, on the assumption an opportunity could be found or manufactured to use it in the future.
I was so struck by the image Clair Browning launched this Pundit post with I couldn't resist doing my own version. I call it, "Balancing our Environmental Responsibilities with our Economic Opportunities".

I'll keep it here for the moment, along with this David Garrett picture, the time of which has, in fact, come, but which remains a bridge too far for the Scoop front page.
