A brief recap by 'Led by Donkeys' of what a disgusting human being the UK prime minister is. He's currently facing a vote of no confidence and will hopefully be out of the job soon, because the 23 major... continue reading

I couldn't find a good video for this, but it's been one of my favourite mashups for years. It gives me that "Wake up, sheeple! They're the same song!" conspiracy nut feeling.
