£1 each, but you can have them 8 for a tenner. |  |

it really is at this level of stupidity - a crusade fuelled by ignorance to uphold the view that the country can still produce cretins bereft of reality |  | | |

The funniest outcome would be for the money to be raised and the testing to start.
During the testing the bell is dropped and irreparably damaged. |  |

Francois is a genuinely funny man.
I’d like to meet him just so that I could ruffle his hair. |  |

Gammon Gandhi might explode by BlueBadger 9 Jan 2020 8:31An expensive vanity idea that's poorly thought through, costs loads and will quite likely cause costly and lasting damage if and when it does happen? I can't think what that could be a metaphor for.

But nah, serious note.
As someone who has become much less materialistic in the last couple of years to reduce waste, taking up space and buying stuff I don’t need, it baffles me anyone would want to waste money ringing a bell. So many better causes. These people wouldn’t piss on a homeless person if they were on fire but will happily pay for a meaningless piece of nationalism. It’s gross.
Same goes for the millionaires and billionaires who suddenly had an unlimited amount of money to fix a big church that caught fire. | |

Absolute inbreds. Imagine voting for the state of that to actually represent you when not riddled with class A’s. | |

They’re tvvats. Does that explain it? 
They have to have someone to blame for their unrealistic bubble being burst. It’s the only way they can function. A lot of people criticised the Labour leadership for being protesters and not suited to govern, well its the same with this lot. Except for some reason they’ve been put in positions of authority. | |

Hope they send it to the local homeless shelters when they realise the renovators are not going to budge. Otherwise it is a true waste of money.
I'll have a tonne of those beans, by the way. |  |

Not from the public purse. Boris said he was working up a plan, but, quelle surprise, that was a lie. Francois has set up a crowd funder instead. But the commons authorities have said there’s a problem accepting donations from the public. Meanwhile, the bell remains broken and it would cost more to fix it quicker and delay more important restoration work.
So all in all, a poorly thought through idea that’s unrealistic or unnecessarily expensive and disruptive.
The perfect metaphor. | |

17.2m of you voted for it, not sure it's that surprising that this campaign has raised an average of <1p from each of them. |  |

It is for the thickos their Eurasia or Eastasia. A faceless force that all 'evil' can be blamed on. Just as in Animal Farm where all failures were blamed on Farmer Jones.
To question who this oppressors are would be pointless, as they are faceless beaurocrats.
A convenient force of anonimity. But an even more convenient label to rally the stupid into thinking that being'useful idiots' for the rich they are somehow fighting against some kind of national threat. | | | |
