| Amid continuing concerns
among the Lib Dem faithful over his health, national supremo Charles Kennedy MP came out
fighting during a galvanising speech to Scottish party workers meeting in Dundee. Pledging
himself to a punishing regime to get fit, Mr Kennedy embarked on a series of montage
edited boxing training regimes accompanied by the "Dah, dah, daaah!" music out
of the Rocky movies.
Frankly incredulous delegates looked on as first, Mr Kennedy attacked the heavy bag in
slow motion while making "Heeugh!" noises, moving on to skipping frenetically
before concluding with some impressive speed work.
Accompanied by cheering crowds, Mr Kennedy then moved outside the conference |
venue in Dundee,
setting a blistering pace in running round the city centre before attacking the three sets
of steps leading back into the conference venue. Unfortunately at that stage, Mr
Kennedy ran out of puff, and slumping to the ground elected to enjoy a health giving fag.
With the news that coffin dodger Ming Campbell hasn’t ruled out a leadership bid,
it is thought that William Gladstone and Lloyd George also fancy chances of a comeback.
Mean while at the SSP conference, tawny trot Tommy "called" for the
resignation of the head of Cosla. Sheridan’s 150db, windae rattling rant had party
members calling as well - for earplugs. |
