Here's Adrian's winner.
The Labour Party has announced its intention to replace its annual conference with a travelling ant farm. Ed Miliband believes that ants, with their collectivist social practices, clear division of labour, long-term commitment to major infrastructure projects and aptitude for problem solving, will help his party re-engage voters by acting as an example of what Britain could be like under a future Labour government. With its high population of co-operating workers, obedient drones and wingless infertile females, Ed’s mobile formicarium seeks to silence those critical of his lack of vision. The ant farm, to tour Labour heartlands and key marginals throughout next autumn, is no hastily contrived gimmick, having been in the Miliband family since 1979. “David always used to maintain it was his,” Ed revealed in a recent interview, “but it’s mine now.”
