With possibly a smidgin of plagarism...
“Good evening, London.
Allow me first to apologize for this interruption. I do, like many of you, appreciate the comforts of every day routine- the security of the familiar, the tranquillity of repetition. I enjoy them as much as any bloke. But in the spirit of commemoration, thereby those important events of the past usually associated with someone's death or the end of some awful bloody struggle, a celebration of a nice holiday, I thought we could mark this May 3rd, a day that is sadly no longer remembered, by taking some time out of our daily lives to sit down and have a little chat...
There are of course those who do not want us to speak. I suspect even now, options are being considered, plans are being made, and men with pamphlets will soon be out and about. Why? Because while lies and deceit are used in lieu of conversation, words will always retain their power. Words offer the means to meaning, and for those who will listen, the enunciation of truth. And the truth is, there is something terribly wrong with Ken Lyingscum and The Labour Party, isn't there? Hypocrisy, homophobia and racism, half truths and outright lies. And where once you had the ability to object, to think and speak as you saw fit, you now have even more lies and distractions and blind faith and peer pressure coercing your conformity and soliciting your submission.
How did this happen? Who's to blame?
Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will never be held accountable because they run the party or the unions. But again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.
I know why you do it. I know you are afraid. Who wouldn't be?
Evil baby-eating Tories, promise-breaking Lib Dems, Coalition, NHS changes, education changes, lower taxes, money to business, pretend cuts and fake austerity measures… There are a myriad set of problems which will all conspire to corrupt your reason and rob you of your common sense. Fear has got the best of you, and in your panic you will turn to the former Mayor, Ken Lyingscum. He promises you more police, he promises you cheaper tube fares, and all he demands in return is your silent, obedient consent and a refusal to look to closely at the fact he cannot actually provide any of this, and has always consistently failed the majority of his promises. Recently, some people have sought to end that silence. Recently they have told you the truth, and they have hoped that you will open your eyes to it. Currently, they would love to destroy the fake facts and blatant lies, to remind this city of what it has forgotten.
Almost four years ago a great citizen wished to embed the 3rd May forever in our memory when he defeated the former Mayor by over a million votes, receiving the largest personal mandate of any politician in British history, and he went on to deliver 91% of his election promises. His hope was to remind the world that honesty, non-hypocrisy, fairness, justice, and freedom are more than words, they are perspectives.
So if you have blind faith in Lyingscum and Labour… If you have seen nothing… If the crimes of this hypocritical, lying, thieving, robbing bastard remain unknown to you… Then I would suggest you allow the 3rd May to pass unmarked.
But if you see what I see... If you feel as I feel... And if you would seek as I seek... Then I ask you to stand beside me six weeks from tonight, at polling booths all over London, and vote for ANYONE but Ken… And together we shall give the Labour Party and Ken Lyingscum a 3rd May that shall never, ever be forgot.”
