Appealing to The Sun FAIL

September 30th, 2009 at 12:13 am

sun-coverWell, the Sun has withdrawn their support for Labour. Not a huge surprise, considering the epic turd of a speech Brown pooed onto the country’s head yesterday. Brown wants a fight – the Sun’s going to give him one.

Still, at least the Daily Mail still loves our puritanical fuhrer (for now).

UPDATE: They’ve officially switched to the Conservatives. Scottish editions will be advocating “Anyone But Labour.”

It’s worth noting that the Sun tends to follow the prevailing mood of its readers. Did the Sun want grovelling apologies and promises of a completely different direction (like everyone else)? Has Brown’s determination to bolster his own position amongst the party faithful at the expense of… well, everyone else… signed, sealed and delivered the end of the Labour Party?
