[tony’s petition] don’t fall for it unless you enjoy electrodes

Chicken Yoghurt has been looking at Tony’s new e-petitioning and we should have woken up to it, should have known:

Secondly, it builds, over time, a nice big database of said moaners, the complainers, the whingers, the dissidents, sceptics, cynics, and single issue yahoos. You have to give your details to sign up. Give false details? Well, that’s their excuse to dismiss your petition as the work of deceptive cranks.

Yes, yes – of course – all nicely categorized and ready for the Black Moriah to zip round and collect them for a bit of electro-pincushioning further down the track. Call me a wild, fanciful madman who sees reds under the bed but we’ll see, won’t we, about the year 2012, who was right?

Actually, they don’t need Tony’s petition – they only need to do a blogtrawl. Yikes! Tony, I love you. You’re a great man and I’ll never ever call you an illumined skull and bones avenging wind ever again – promise! Don’t send them – please? And you had nothing to do with 7/7 at all.

Absolutely nothing. [I think I got away with it.]
