Let’s talk about The Thick of It and the current apocalyptic implosion of the Real Life Labour Party for a quick minute.

For all that BEN(N)egeddon the forcible ejection of an unpopular Leader of the Opposition was an overarching plot element of TTOI series 4 (poor Nicola), I think Malcolm’s simile from 306 when they were still in government is the best description of what it must be like to be right in the middle of a political party in total total meltdown.

(And what’s really frightening is that Malcolm’s simile dates back to 2009, but
the divorce of Jordan aka Katie Price – yes, THAT one – and that bloke aka Peter Andre are  STILL current events in the more tabloidly regions of the press.)
