Oh dear....they just can't seem to get to right:

Keane 'horrified' by Tories' use of hit single

This morning's "rally," is fast becoming "Dave's" Sheffield moment.
Things must be getting desperate, if "you" are canvassing for tactical voting; not sure your "party" is going to win on it's own merits?

"I" would have thought "people" would be more interested in the economy, health, education, policing, employment, etc etc - but no, let's focus on some "people" on "horses" who chase "foxy-woxy".....(btw, "I" don't support "fox-hunting", just like most of the "Tories" I know - but that wouldn't help "your" stereotyping and rabble-rousing, would it?).

Funny, I don't remember David Cameron shouting "We're all right! We're all right!" during his speech....

And "oh dear", "you" are right - using a "Keane" song without prior permission is going to lose the "Conservatives" the election; this will be the defining moment.
