Local politicians

May 17th, 2006 · Posted by Skuds in Politics · 4 Comments · Politics

The other day I was at a loose end and was playing around with an anagram generator online. All the good ones are well-known (Tony Blair = I’m Tory plan B or Virginia Bottomly = I’m an evil Tory bigot for example) so I thought I would try a few from the Crawley political scene like councillors and candidates in this year’s elections and came up with these:

  • Sally Blake = Leaky balls
  • Marcella Head = Alarmed Leach
  • Chris Redmayne = Henry I’m scared
  • Gordon Seekings = Skin so engorged
  • Mike Weatherly = Way meek Hitler
  • David Shreeves = Deserved Shiv
  • Henry Smith = Rhine myths
  • Brenda Smith = Ms hand-biter
  • Bob Lanzer = Nob blazer
  • Andrew Skudder = Reds’ dud wanker
    (I’ll get that in before anyone else does)
  • Richard W Symonds = Dr. Whimsy’s candor
  • Robert Hull = Bolt thrower
  • Alan Quirk = Lying cheat

Quite disappointing. The Robert Hull one is good, the Sally Blake one is funny but inappropriate, but the rest are a bit weak I fear.

And talking of Alan Quirk, we have not forgotten his mendacious newsletter, but I have been advised that if we had made a fuss about it the only person in the firing line would have been the agent whose name was at the bottom. I am pretty certain that the agent had nothing to do with it – even the other councillor whose name it was in had, apparently, not known of the contents.

  • Although technically I am able to edit comments I will not do so unless it is to remove embedded code which is causing problems.
  • If it is ever necessary to edit a comment it will be made clear that it has been edited.
