Apologies to Jo if she did comment on it. But after all those mad cries for bans on airbrushing, I can’t find a single comment from her on “that David Cameron” picture. fake1

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Is it terrible to fool a few silly women – but OK to deceive the whole electorate? It’s all nonsense as far as I am concerned. But some consistency would be nice. Maybe it’s just airbrushed WOMEN she objects to?

(Hat tip to Guido  (its his picture) who pointed out the glaring similarities between the over-airbrushed David Cameron and  Data from Star Trek.

UPDATE: As you will see from the comments posted – Jo Swinson has indeed commented on David Cameron’s airbrushing. Check out the comments ..but essentially Jo said the following at a House of Commons debate: Media Images (women and girls) on Jan 11thIndeed, it seems that some politicians are not immune to that vanity. The Minister may have seen the Conservative party’s new billboard featuring a picture of the Leader of the Opposition looking more than a little airbrushed. I know that he wanted to present the new face of the Conservative party, but had not realised that he meant it literally”.

Jo also tweeted on Jan 5th “something a bit fake about the new Tory poster – is it Dave’s message or just the airbrushing?

Not quite the same attack as that launched on Twiggy is it now Jo? But I was wrong to say that she had not commented quite clearly.
