RIP New Labour

I see that in this morning's Sun George Pascoe Watson has written the Obituray to New Labour

THE tragic death of New Labour has been announced in No 10, Downing Street.
New Labour passed away after a 14-year battle with socialism.
The lethal disease was thought to have been eradicated in Britain.
But New Labour was unable to fight off the killer condition which has claimed the lives of previous Labour governments.
The last rites were performed by Gordon Brown and Alistair Darling in the House of Commons on Monday.
New Labour died after a fatal dose of tax rises, plans to nationalise the entire banking system and £1trillion of debt.
Its heartbroken father, Tony Blair, was too upset to comment.
