How fecked are you now?

Nick Clegg says 

Lib Dems can pull

 off election 'surprises'

Nick CleggMr Clegg said the party had a "fight on their hands" but predicted election "surprises"
Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg has told the BBC predictions of a Lib Dem "apocalypse" would be confounded.He told a frankly incredulous JT, "For such an apocalypse to occur it would have to be foretold and there would be great signs and wonders manifest, God would cause the moon to obscure the sun and a great darkness would be upon the earth."

Thank goodness there's no confusion over what David's called- he was and remains, a fat, racist cunt.

Robohack-the future of vote enforcement!



Jim Murphy, facing an electoral meltdown in the May election will today unveil the latest weapon in the fightback-Robohack, a super robot designed to persuade the electorate to vote Labour or else.

Jim told The JT :"We've experimented with synthetic life forms before, but Johann Lamont and Iain Gray were a but pish to be honest, we're hoping that Robohack is better at mimicking human behaviour because those two were rubbish at it."

Boffins have told The JT that Robohack is likely to come up against from Asimov's fourth law of robotics:robots programmed by plausible social democrats tend to be a bit rubbish. 

Professor Beaker, back from a long sabbatical explains:"Social democracy seeks to accommodate socialist programmes within the context of a capitalist economy, which works a bit until the economy drives itself over a cliff taking any socialist notions with it. Robohack will  experience cognitive dissonance engendered by holding two contradictory positions in a single brain. 
It is likely the entity will eventually flail about ineffectually before exploding in a shower of sparks and going all melted- just like Johann and Iain..."



"Who are you?" "Iam Jim, your creator."
"Oh, fuck me."

McCall stepped down as Motherwell manager in November but is wary of taking up a position that would end his involvement with the national team.
He said: "It's got to be something that would really make me want to go and do it. Obviously, Rangers is a huge club.
"But a team have got to want you to be involved and then you look into it." He told The JT:"I will look into it, then, if I decide to accept the position of manager, I will immediately shoot myself in the face, to save time six months down the road."
