Louise Mensch tweeted 13 million voted for UKIP, then when called up on the figure (closer to 3 million), she claims a typo.

Unfortunately she actually typed "Thirteen"

Some typo.

Mm.

As for 'corruption' in Europe, I don't see things being better here. If anything, EU regulations have stifled a lot of sell-offs and hideous decisions, but there you go.

It'll be interesting tonight to see what Boris decides is best for Boris and the future of Boris, given that a lot of people will follow his lead. (My guess is he'll campaign to leave, which will obliterate DC/GO and Goldsmith, but give Boris a run at a very senior cabinet post on before 2020. But, hey, screw London, which will be hit hard.)

Goldsmith is campaigning to leave.

Good to see everyone, shame I had to sandwich it in between work

The whole suicide thing I just took as exaggeration for comedic effect.

I did laugh at the fate of the ambassador, and it makes a change from the grimdark post DoC Dredd.

Dredd being out of character with his muttering - Hershey says that it's a charade, both she and him are laying it on a bit thick because that's what the Kleggs expect.

A couple of shout outs to Jim Murray and 2000AD

Tony's bit starts about 1:45 in

Really sad to hear about Tony Luke, always enjoyed seeing his work. Was it Tony who did the stop motion Blitzspear video as a project at art college?

Yep - Liam Sharp posted a vid on facebook of a young Tony talking about stop motion to Michael Bentine on a programme called Madabout, and he was demonstrating a puppet he'd made of Nemesis.

Will post it when I get home.

RIP Tony.

Yay!

I never went UKCAC either, sure I'd seen it on a blog somewhere before...

The Milk Tray man is branching out.

That's the one I was thinking of. Nice one.

Pretty sure that's from a Robin Smith Dredd - even remember the smile.

Should make it easier to track down.

The heart of a real bastard definitely rings a bell.

Poster prog maybe?

I'm glad it's doing well, I have a soft spot for Tim Miller, who runs Blur Studios (They do a ton of CGI cut scenes for games) and had been trying to get into doing features for years.
