OK, last chance people. We have a choice.

The Tories: a party that is populated by self-serving homophobes and bigots, funded by a man who refuses to pay UK tax, who will destroy public services and leave those most vulnerable in society to sink or swim. They've done it before, and be under no illusions, they'll do it again. The party that believe they can buy the public's support. The party of the few not the many. The party of Phil Collins.

The Labour Party: built on a fundamental belief that we're all better off when we look after each other. That we have a moral obligation to help those who need it most. The party that supports rights for all, regardless of background, gender, sexuality, race or wealth. The party of the NHS. The party which, whatever way you look at it, have made the right economic calls over the last 2 years that have prevented our country collapsing into financial apocalypse.

I know there are other choices. Some might seem new and exciting. Some are abhorrent beyond belief. But i believe that ultimately the future of our country will rest on shoulders of either the Tories or the Labour Party. Our future is in all of our hands.

Don't forget to vote.

I make no secret of the fact that I'm a Labour supporter and voter.

I've also made no secret of the fact that I'm incredibly worried about the possibility of not just the Tories getting into power, but of the chance of a certain Mr. George Osborne running our economy.

So, along with my friend, colleague and boss, Paul Colman (a man whom, whilst not quite sharing such partisan political allegiances, shares the same concerns about George) I've put together a site which pokes a bit of fun at the man, the myth and the mystery. 

It's not exactly original (to get around that we're filing it under 'evolving meme'). It's a bit silly. And it's not supposed to be nasty. But beneath the stupidity there's a simple message: this is a man is who is far too seriously under-qualified and out of touch to run our economy. 

Plus, his real name is Gideon.

NB. This sits under a wider idea that we've created called 'Powerpoint for Labour' - more on that soon

Remember panels are generally worse than talks (but not always).

Steer well clear of anything that could remotely turn into a sales pitch.

Avoid anything with an absolutist title (e.g. “stuff you must do to WIN in social media”).

On the same theme, avoid anything that sounds like a checklist (e.g. “ten rules for monetising fans”).

Anything with the words ‘brand’ or ‘advertising’ in the title will undoubtedly suck.
