Forthcoming Fiasco Checklist™
November 28th, 2007 by ThunderDragon
As Brown becomes more Mr Bean than Stalin, free in The Times is a checklist of forthcoming fiascos from Bean’s Brown’s Labour government to tick off:
After the Government lost 25 million bank details down the back of the Chancellor’s sofa, pictures of an ashen-faced Alistair Darling and a grim Prime Minister have been appearing accompanied by this question from the media: “Could it get any worse?” The answer – of course it can get worse, you idiot.
Once press and national sentiment have turned, it becomes harder and harder to catch a break. And fairness has little to do with it. Three years to the election is a long time, claim Mr Brown’s friends. They are right. Three years is a long, long time.
And with that, here’s your Forthcoming Fiasco Checklist™. As each fiasco comes to pass, just tick the box. If they manage to dodge one bullet, just move on to the next item and keep ticking.

The most amusing bit is the constant repetition of the following sentence:
… publishes a pamphlet urging more progress on public service reform. He says that he is just trying to be helpful.
Preceded each time by the name of a different well-known Blairite.
Print it out, and tick them off as they occur!
This could even quite easily be adapted into some form of Bingo game…
