it has come to my attention that many of my international followers were unaware that the black mirror episode where the prime minister (loosely based on david cameron) fucked a pig in fact aired several years before the news emerged that the prime minister (david cameron) had actually fucked a pig

and furthermore, the prime minister who actually did fuck a pig did not do it due to a hostage situation, but as an initiation for a uni drinking society.

the other difference between the black mirror episode and the time the prime minister actually fucked a pig was that the pig david cameron actually fucked was dead.

so if you ever wonder why the british are so Like That, remember that in the last decade we have had five prime ministers and the objectively least terrible one was the one who actually fucked a pig to get into a posh club
@stavvers And that, of the five PMs, two were in the pig fucking club, along with one finance minister.
@Nickiquote @stavvers i just assumed it's a pigfucking club.
@stavvers how was dave decent

@ellenor2000 @stavvers The bar wasn't "decent".

I thought "how could that possibly be true" and then I thought about the ones that came after and ... yeah ... "least terrible" tracks.

@stavvers kind of back and forth on cameron vs may and may i think was slightly less worse than cameron by sheer dint of she didn't really get much of anything done

@Cube @stavvers
Also, May's postmortem interspecies copulation record is, as far as we know, better. Or worse, depending on where you stand on the matter.

Of course anything could have happened during a nighttime run through the fields. A deceased badger, a romantic moon, passion ignites, the music swells...

@jannem @Cube @stavvers my view is that Cameron is the slightly better. He brought us to the door of chaos, but at least had the decency (in the end) to go “yeah, I’m not doing that”. May (and others) got the job entirely on their commitment to knowingly destroy the country. (Whether they delivered anything seems irrelevant - I feel like a basic requirement for all PMs should be a desire not to ruin the country they’re in charge of.)

@PlanetMillie
Hard agree on all counts.

Cameron was the worst PM we’d ever had … until May.

May was the worst PM we’d ever had … until Johnson.

Johnson was the worst PM we’d ever had … until Truss.

Sunak ranks somewhere around May … objectively awful in every way, yet somehow not the worst.

@clacksee Lol I agree with your ranking! Also, weirdly you popped up in my feed yesterday about Star Trek and I thought “Yey a Star Trek person” and now you’ve spoken to me 12 hours later, like the universe is nudging us to talk to each other!
@PlanetMillie @jannem @stavvers I dunno, I mean cameron was the implementer of austerity hell which as a disabled person is very at the forefront of my mind at all times, and I'm not sure if "I don't particularly want any of this poop I've created on my fingers seeya" is particularly admirable behaviour really
@Cube @PlanetMillie @jannem @stavvers that fucking whistle as he turned his back
@Cube yeah, this is actually a fair point
@stavvers I think it's important to clarify that it was the pig's mouth, not the bum, just so these naifs can have their imaginations ruined in an accurate fashion
@AnnaOverThere @stavvers gosh that definitely changes things, thanks for the update 😂
@stavvers WAIT IS IT LIKE IN THE BLACK MIRROR EPISODE?
@berniethewordsmith @stavvers I THOUGHT THAT WAS A WORK OF FICTION

@stavvers you’d *think* that necro-bestiality would form some kind of line that would cause one to question whether the club is worth joining.

@stavvers

TBF, none of the others have been asked if they have. I fully expect at least one of them has violated a dead pig with his johnson.

@monkeyben and we know Johnson would have, that's one explanation on how he got that hairstyle and the constant need to lie, he was bitten... @stavvers
@stavvers Dave Cameron methodically fucked us all, before he left the posh club.
@stavvers
Laugh of the day, thank you.
@stavvers 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
@stavvers they never did make public what Liz truss did to those bath robes, did they?
@stavvers every time I hear about this I feel renewed pity for the pig.
@stavvers It wasn't even to get into a club! It was an impromptu act for a cheap laugh.
@stavvers this doesn’t clear things up 🥴
@stavvers The least terrible? Cameron gets let off so lightly, but the chaos of the last few years is basically the outcome of his policies: austerity, running down health and social services, and his disastrous Brexit referendum. In addition, he was one of the imperialist gang who attempted regime change in Libya, causing ongoing civil war and fuelling the migration crisis. I'd rather have Loony Liz any day.
@stavvers the fact that he was the least bad is entirely accurate and most of us assume the pig thing was true even if we didn’t read the articles about it - but it’s very hard to succinctly describe to a non British person why it’s not actually surprising to any of us that it’s all true.
@stavvers also he was single handedly responsible for Britain leaving the EU - due to incompetence rather than a desire to leave the EU. But even factoring in the economic and reputational damage of that - he is still the least bad.

@stavvers Thank you for this reminder... my day is now complete

(explains everything though)

@stavvers I missed the pig thing and I feel quite lucky about that rn (ain’t no way I’m googling that)
@stavvers "British" really or English ?
@Roadwarrior29 you're right, the Scottish really don't find pig fucking hilarious and took it incredibly seriously and absolutely love every prime minister this country has had
@stavvers wish I could feel smug over here in the US but well you know....waves hands.
@stavvers wait now, that was really a thing that happened?
@CatDragon yep, this is why the british are like that, this is our tier of scandals

@stavvers @CatDragon

That's more than I really expected.

@CatDragon @stavvers wow, sounds like Benjamin Franklin and the sex clubs. Political scandals are as American Apple Pie and the fecking pesticides which cause me to get allergic reactions. Try hard to wash them off still hits me.
@joeziehmer @CatDragon I can fairly confidently say that none of your last five presidents have had sex with livestock, to the wide knowledge of the public.
@stavvers @CatDragon Trump is our wall of shame and it wouldn’t surprise any of us, if he’d of fathered Boris Johnson.
@stavvers @joeziehmer @CatDragon previous preso of US had had something with Russian delegation here in Helsinki, and I'm not sure sex with dead animal would be worse. But well...
@stavvers And we're here in the USA wishing our last president was only guilty of fucking a dead pig.
@stavvers
I am so desperately hoping that you are engaging in satire, and a little terrified that you aren't
@cturnbow @stavvers one thing that i will always remember fondly about the birdsite is when this dropped and we all had what was termed (first by stavvers i think actually?) as "pigfuck christmas"
@Cube @stavvers
Are you telling me that this really happened
I... wtf...
@Cube @cturnbow @stavvers
What I remember is Charlie Brooker finally admitting what everyone already suspected

Charlie Brooker (@charltonbrooker)

Shit. Turns out Black Mirror is a documentary series.

@stavvers I may be grossed out for a bit.
@stavvers The Piers Gaveston Society, which itself is some next-order fuckery above and beyond Bullingdon Club level shit. Noted alumnus: Count Gottfried von Bismarck (RIP): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piers_Gaveston_Society
Piers Gaveston Society - Wikipedia

@cstross @stavvers I wonder why Wikipedia calls him Count Gottfried von Bismarck-Schönhausen when his name was Gottfried Graf von Bismarck-Schönhausen.
By which I mean that "Graf von Bismarck-Schönhausen" is not a title, but a surname. As far as I know, all German titles of nobility were officially abolished in 1919 and folded into family names, so there are no German counts anymore.
@stavvers This is some serious Nine Inch Nails shit right here. I remember hearing something about this, but I thought it was just a rumor.
@stavvers Another part of the Bullingdon club initiation was "burn a £50 note in front of a homeless person", a move which predicted the tory mode of governance, so really fucking a dead pig was the least of his crimes
