O Hai, American guys! UK PM DAVID CAMERON, PIGS AND... WHUUUUUUTTT??

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by TexasTowelie (a host of the 2016 Postmortem forum).

You think YOUR politics is a mess...? Weeeellll....

Appaaaaaarently....

UK PM David Cameron stuck a ... COUGH... "part of his anatomy" into the mouth of a dead pig in his dim and distant youth, according to Lord Ashcroft, who has recently done a biography on him.

It's all over the UK press.

So. There you go. Take some comfort in the knowledge that no matter how low and dirty campaigning gets in the US... there's always still the UK...

"Cameron biography: Ashcroft makes new debauchery claims about student days"

http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2015/sep/21/david-cameron-pig-head-lord-ashcroft-unofficial-biography-drug-taking-claims

"No 10 says it will not 'dignify' Ashcroft's student debauchery allegations by responding to them"

http://www.theguardian.com/politics/blog/live/2015/sep/21/cameron-hit-by-student-drugs-and-debauchery-allegations-in-ashcroft-biography-politics-live

...and so on.

It's slightly odd that the first episode if Charlie Brooker's quasi-science-fictional Black Mirror's first episode is TERRIBLY similar to this story... He's tweeted about it saying he didn't know about it... waaaah!

Anyway, puns all over the place now from fellow pols and others saying Cameron's "hogging the limelight" and so on. Ah, Blighty, you do me proud.



Daily Mash article is the best...

"Britons wearily accept that their Prime Minister put his cock in a pig's mouth"...

Statement of Purpose

A forum for general discussion of the Democratic presidential primaries. Disruptive meta-discussion is forbidden.

Sorry, but this has absolutely nothing to do with the Democratic presidential primaries. You might want to repost in the General Discussion forum, but I believe it has already been posted there.
