The New Deal

Hello Playmates,

Only your favourite politically savvy Giant Rubber Goth Bat checking in. I've decided that in order to double my chances to become a political heavyweight and leader of opinion I'm going to stand for election as the next leader of the liberal party. I mean how difficult can it be to drink large quantities of scotch and have a range of dubious sexual practices? The only trouble with this is that, as the master has kindly pointed out, I am not exactly the most liberal minded of bats - or for that many any other sentient creature - and as I happen to disagree with almost every one of their policies and I'm not actually a member of the party I think I might be facing a bit of an uphill struggle on this one.
And if this bid for power fails I'm going to apply to be officially adopted by the Queen and become Royal, after all I'd make a much better King than Prince Charles .... and I've got better ears.
