The Guardian:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2011/oct/16/charlie-brooker-cameron-a-lizard?newsfeed=trueLast week, during the opening preamble to a fairly pedestrian whinge about glitzy BBC promo trails, I called Prime Minister David Cameron a "pitiless blank-eyed hell-wraith" and described his familiar evening ritual: a stomach-churning rite which opens with ceremonial skin-shedding and climaxes with the swallowing of a live foal.
So far, so utterly reasonable. But Graeme Archer of the Daily Telegraph was less than impressed. In a riposte entitled "Charlie Brooker and the Tragedy of the Modern Left", he wrote that he was appalled that "Mr. Brooker felt the need to spend four paragraphs to tell us that the Prime Minister is, in fact, a lizard that he is served by lizards who aid him in the consumption of live flesh once the sun goes down."
...
I know this sounds crazy. But don't take my word for it. Last week I asked the online community if it had further proof of Cameron's true nature. I was immediately inundated with terrifying eyewitness accounts.
Twitter enthusiast @djamesc wrote: "I went to school with Cameron. He used to curl up next to the radiator during lunch. He only ate once a week." Lots more and it's all belly-laugh-out-loud funny.
