Sale bargains on political websites

While researching Labour leadership election rules, I stumbled upon seasonal markdowns by the Labour Party (alas they did not include 'principles', 'integrity' or 'competence'), with two bargains to be had - an umbrella (perhaps they really think that global warming has kicked in?), and the amusingly titled election victory DVD called, get this, 'A Chance to Serve'. Presumably they mean the electorate, rather than the People's Party itself.

The Tory site is amusing in a left field manner in that it takes you off to the now Dale-less Politicos, and with sufficient jabbing at the F5 button it leads with books on De Valera and Bill Clinton. I'm not making this up, and have a screen capture to prove it.

The Yellow Peril do not seem to have wised up to e-commerce, but I guess that is no surprise. The SNP is big on umbrellas, although it is not marking them down, but the more copies of 'Talking Independence' you fork out for, the cheaper they get. Plaidcymru.org does not work, and cyber squatters hold Plaidcymru.com. Very impressive boyos.

SS - It takes me to a pop up hell website singularly lacking in Cambrian interest.

BG - Perhaps you can only get to that section if you go in through the members entrance.

Shame that. V and I still want to see Prescott's boots, because we reckon Anschutz didn't buy them at Walmart.

As me and V commented on Iain's Prezza thread, we believe the Anschutz chapter is far from over.

He'd steal the pennies of his dead mother's eyes if he thought there was money in it.

Intending to look up leadership election rules for the Labour Party I was distracted by (apropos leader behaviour etc.,) having entered 'night of the long knives'. I expected Mr Macmillan, but it was this

"On June 30 Hitler took personal command of Röhm's arrest. He then ordered Göring's Landespolizeigruppe General Göring and Himmler's Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitler into action. Alfred Rosenberg's diary provides an account:
With an SS escort detachment the Führer drove to Bad Wiessee and knocked softly on Röhm's door: “Message from Munich,” he said with disguised voice. “Well come in,” Röhm called to the supposed messenger, “the door is open.” Hitler tore open the door, fell on Röhm as he lay in bed, seized him by the throat and screamed, “You are under arrest, you swine.” Then he turned the traitor over to the SS. At first Röhm refused to get dressed... . In the room next door, they found young men engaged in homosexual activity. “And these are the kind who want to be leaders in Germany,” the Führer said trembling... "
that appeared first.

Knocks spots off 1962 (and the Rule Book).
