Ah, Christmas time. The cheer. The mince pies. The gifts. The snow.
Not so happy a time for Labour: The scandals. The political turkeys. The dodgy donations. The rain.
Gordon Brown must be looking forward to having some time off, putting his feet up in front of the fire (let’s not wonder which documents he might like to use as tinder), and trying not to think about where it all went wrong. If he needs a reminder, though, we’re here to help.
What better way to keep track of Labour’s problems at this time of year than with an Advent Calendar? (Yes, we know it’s the 6th already – shush at the back.)
So we present, as a seasonal gift to you all:

How very clever! I’ve sent one to all my Labour friends!
(Glad it has a “sound off” option though . . .)
Will, can you default the sound to ‘off’ please? I’m at home today but if I was in the office that could get me a few dodgy looks from the boss.
Beyond that though, not bad, even though it is giving me ‘update Quicktime’ warnings again. I swear they do more updates than Firefox these days.
Good rude fun, though not quite goodwill to all people. Comparing it to my Cyberman one at home, however, I note that – aside from a lack of chocolate, which is notoriously difficult to extract from your monitor – you’ve missed one of the main bits of fun for an Advent Calendar, which is to mix up the numbers in a crazy order and peek about looking for them. “1234…” just seems a little less imaginative (surely you didn’t have it designed by Internet maestro Grant Shapps?).
I enjoyed the cash register jingle, though the Election That Never Was could perhaps have had the sound of a bottle rolling away…
My Doctor Who Christmas & New Year Countdown Calendar and my Dairy Milk Advent Calendar are jumbled, so consider it done 🙂
Brilliant! Now get working on the Facebook app! 🙂
Good, Will!
