llamatron Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 "too far, too fast" is really starting to grate on me. Do they not get that it is just annoying:rant: at least we have stopped hearing "child tax credits" every two seconds why do they never bother phrasing real sentences?

llamatron Posted January 18, 2012 Author Share Posted January 18, 2012 Two words: "Big Society". yes that was annoying but at least the tories stopped saying it, labour just switched to a different catchphrase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingus Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I think their latest catchphrase is "Oh s@@t we're f@@@@d" I mean " Oh dear things aren't going too well at the moment". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phanerothyme Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I say to the hard working families, up and down this great country, that cliches and catchphrases are the foundations of our big tent, our big society of stakeholders, and that our cliches are better costed, fairer and more economical than the laughable cliches of the [conservative/labour/lib dem] party.

Do they not get that it is just annoying:rant: at least we have stopped hearing "child tax credits" every two seconds why do they never bother phrasing real sentences? Agreed it annoying, do they speak to their partners / familes in such a manner? In the 80s all we used to hear was "trendy teaching methods", "there is no alternative", "political correctness" etc etc. So to be fair it isn't just Labour that rely on soundbites.

I know they all do it-either labour do it more frequently/blatently or I just disagree with the soundbites more. I am confident its mainly the former! Harriet wotshername said "too far, too fast" about 10 times in a minute on the daily politics show. It could be impressive if it wasn't soooooo annoying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horribleblob Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Maybe they're "not fit for purpose" [John Reid], so they should "put up or shut up" [John Major]. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
