David Cameron as a cute chameleon, Classic or Dud?

I flicked channels, and the Labour PPB started up.

Alice sees the 'cute chameleon' and settles down to watch it.

Got me thinking...

How many families are now watching this as the chameleon has caught the eye of the kids, and the messages are going in to te adults, subliminal like?

Apparently, there had been one previously where he'd been depicted as a cute frog, which he said he enjoyed as his little girl had also enjoyed the programme about the cute frog.

Hmm. I think he's bluffing.

it's just struck me: this is the crazy frogging of british politics.

see it gets the kids loving david cameron and the parents would get jealous of the love and will vote labour in revenge. meanwhile kids can't vote and by the time they grow up it won't be david cameron and they'd be heart broken and never vote tories evah. So a win-win tactic. Genius.

I'm beginning to think Labour are deliberately trying to lose the next election

But what do ver kids think of the cutsey animation and tinkly music on the Green-Tory election ads?

i'm not a big tv man these days -- i've only seen this in news broadcasts, not as an actual attack ad.

You mean the Tories haven't already appropriated that character for themselves? If they haven't already they will shortly. Stupid, stupid, stupid, Labour party strategists.

Hmm, apparently he cycled to his office yesterday, stopped for photos/chat to press about "green issues", and got to his office, where his car pulled up and gave him his suitcase, a shirt and a shiny pair of shoes.

Yeah, but Gordon Brown is fucking Angelina Jolie or something, so that's pretty "cred".

what the fuck?

The chancellor has received a ringing endorsement from one of the most glamorous women in the world that he is the man to succeed Tony Blair as prime minister.
When Gordon Brown met actress Angelina Jolie at a press conference in Namibia, the pair indulged in a shower of compliments for each others' efforts to make the world a better place.
The American star, more used to spending time with Brad Pitt, praised Mr Brown's £8.5 billion pledge for global education, while the MP for Dunfermline East called her "inspirational" in her role as a UN goodwill ambassador.

When asked if Mr Brown should be the next prime minister she eventually admitted: "I hope he does have a chance to do more and more good things, and I think he will if he has the chance. So yes, I would like to see it.

having spent the past half decade trying desperately (and failing completely) to appeal to Ver Kidz, nu-labour finally manage it...on behalf of the tories.

Come back chameleon, all is forgiven.

― Space Battle Rothko (Matt DC), Friday, 13 November 2009 12:29 (sixteen years ago)

good lord.

I have no recollection of this cute chameleon, so the beginning of this topic reads like a collective fever dream.

― FC Tom Tomsk Club (Merdeyeux), Friday, 13 November 2009 12:38 (sixteen years ago)

I think the biggest of all the many problems with that is that lots of people actually will be laughing if Jedward win.

Baffled if it's on the labour website legitimately though.

My ex girlfriend's new fiancee looks exactly like David Cameron, which makes me like both him and Cameron even less.
