It was a silly contest, anyway. Didn't want to win it. Really.
I will lurk in the shadows, perhaps taking a front bench position. My time will come. I can wait. I can wait.
Subterfuge, thy name is Michael Denzil Xavier! You think you've seen the last of me, eh? Ha ha ha...
If I lose tomorrow, I'm washed up. I'm 93 and can't possibly contest the leadership again. Out with a whimper, not a bang.
I will most likely win. Unfortunately, "win" seems to mean being made the laughing stock of the country for four years, before being righteously annihilated at the next general election.
Civilisation and democracy as we know them have been destroyed, and all I can do is make comics about the Tories.
