The most boring by-election ever. The civil-liberties by-election.

Our first David is a career politician who resigned his Membership of Parliament on an issue of conscience over increasing surveillence and diminishing civil liberties.

Our second David has a curious career being a national figure of ridicule, calling out the great and the good as lizards marauding against our collective consciousness on a inter dimensional level.

 Haltemprice and Howden will soon play host to an election quite unlike any other in recent British history. As widely reported, apart from being a battle of two famous Davids, it is also a by-election in which more independent candidates are standing than ever recorded in any other election.

An election sparked by Gordon Browns close winning of 43 day detention for Terror suspects, is fast turning into a referendum on the trajectory of our country towards totalitarian oversight and control excercised against the mass of the population.

The difference between the David's is one of degree in stance, not stance itself. Whilst David Davis stands against a slippery slope into destructon of civil liberties, David Icke stands against the "Orwellian Global Totalitarian" state he has opposed for almost 20 years on the alternatve media fringes.

The tale of Two David's has already produced some amusing fruit, with Icke commentating how, even if he was elected - he would never swear the oath of allegiance to the Queen: and that she has a face like "a smacked arse" anyway...

 Maybe that's how the lizard people put a little colour in their cheeks perhaps David?

Sniping aside this is shaping up to be a very interesting by election -  A House of Commons with David Icke inside it - is too good an opportunity to pass up.

 Especially because since Gerry Adams and McGuiness and the Human Rights act - You don't have to swear allegience to the Queen... Icke himself states:

 "My worst nightmare would be to go into Parliament, into that web of deceit, lies and corruption."

 Hopefully, the fine people of Haltemprice and Howden constituency will react to the pomp and high principle of this by-election with convivial English sarcasm and elect Mr Icke.

A Nightmare for him. A Nightmare for Parliament, and a lorra lorra laughs, for everyone else. To paraphrase Richard Littlejohn's catchphrase: You couldn't pass it up... Icke is well worth an outside bet for this election.
