LDV Saturday caption competition: The “Kennedy AVs it Large” edition

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

Here’s former Lib Dem leader Charles Kennedy sharing a Yes2AV platform with Labour’s Tessa Jowell and Green leader Caroline Lucas. What do you think Charles or his companions might be thinking or saying?

The winner of our most recent caption competition, The “Webb’s Wonders” Edition, according to The Voice’s judging panel of one, was this one by Tabman.

Got a photo of a prominent Lib Dem you think would work well for a future caption competition? Then please email us at [email protected].

    “The Tories’ unfair advantage is this big. No wonder the voters feel shafted.” (Kennedy AVs It Large caption)

  • “Would you like to make that a double, Charles?”

    Charles says:

    Sorry ladies, I did hold Nick Clegg in a head lock like this but I still couldn’t persuade him to join a ‘rainbow coalition’

  • John Mc beat me to it 😀

    Say again? Or perhaps not.

    Thanks Jedibeeftrix, I’d somehow manged to miss the news story about the black poet and the airbrush.

    I think you may be reading too how much into it, however. It smacks of some over-smart marketing “expert” who thinks he knows how to target particular “populations”. This may work on a postcode basis, but not when you’re directing some leaflets to the whole of London and others to whole counties.

    A bit stupid anyway, as it was bound to be discovered and seized on by the No2AV campaign.

    Thanks Jedibeeftrix, I’d somehow manged to miss the news story about the black poet and the airbrush. Of course we should all accept the Yes campaign’s explanation that they have an embarrasment of celebrity endorsers – sheer fluke that only the black man was replaced on their leaflets.

This may work on a postcode basis, but not when you’re directing some leaflets to the whole of London and others to whole counties. It also makes all kinds of assumptions about who lives where and their attitudes.
