There’s no prize at stake – just the opportunity to prove you’re wittier than any other LDV reader…

And the winners of our last caption comp is…
Some fantastic entries for our most recent caption competition, David Cameron & Jeremy Hunt “Human shield” Edition.
The winner, according to The Voice’s judging panel of one, was this one by Paul Walter:
Cameron: “I knew you’d like my tickling stick”
With an honourable mention for Nick (not Clegg):
Hunt: “Can we blame this on Clegg?”
Cameron: “No, but we can drag him down with us.”

Cameron “Is it my place or yours?”
Cameron:
“I give you – the next leader of the Conservative Party”
“Oww… Boris, you’re… breaking my fingers…”
“This is the man you want, officer; have you got the bracelets ready?” (But I’m not sure which one is saying it.)
One popular leader of the Conservatives standing by his principles, winning an election, power and respect … and David Cameron.
Bullingdon boys cutting the mustard yet again.
“These masonic handshakes are getting more and more convoluted these days.”
Both: “We’ll have to support gay marriage now.”
Blow up doll stands in for for newly elected London mayor.
It’s like this Dave, ‘you put your right foot in, your right foot out’,
“Why did you think we supported Lynn on gay marriage?”
Cameron: “I wonder why other cities don’t seem keen on directly elected mayors!”
Dace: “Hold my hand, Boris, I think Nadine Dorries is behind me.”
Cameron: (Thinks) It’s OK, I’ve got a bottle of hand sanitizer in the car.
The body language between these two is all wrong, it would be interesting to see what the experts make of it, but this says to me: Dave – ‘hey, look what I found lurking in the shadows’
Boris – ‘am I the only success he can find to look pleased about?’
Boris: He hasn’t felt the knife yet…
Dave: He hasn’t felt the knife yet…
SamCam: “How come my Dave is being outpolled by a guy whose jacket doesn’t fit and whose trousers are about to split at the crotch?”
Boris to Dave: Over a million people voted directly for me and less than thirty-four thousand for you!
