All Hail the Cleggertron!
The new coalition government has taken on a mighty task, that of shrinking the national debt from several squillion down to enough for a bag of chips, and some curry sauce. If that wasn’t challenge enough, it seems as though the cabinet are playing an interesting game of follow my leaders. So far, I remain positive; the Lib Dems are diluting the more Tory of the Tory policies, and the Tories are saying a big fat “no” to the more batty of the Lib Dem ones. And the Cleggertron is proving itself a force to be reckoned with. Especially against the combined powerful charm of the Miliband Brothers. Go the Cleggertron! It might even win an Olympic Medal!

Take that Cleggertron!
Only one thing more interesting than the question “When will David Cameron and Nick Clegg finally begin to merge into one being and become the casual shirt-encrusted Cleggertron?”, is which dark and dishy (if you’re Hilary Clinton) Miliband brother will win the Labour leadership contest. Aside from the Miliband of brothers,in the running are Ed Balls and Andy Burnham and Dianne Abbott. But who cares about them when what we really want to see is a fight to the death between The Milibands. Less hairy than the Gallaghers, more suave than the Chuckle brothers, they are quite a force to be reckoned with. Both studied at Oxford, and are so charming and clever, it’s hard to choose between them; they are The Super Milibrand Brothers! They are, in fact, so super I don’t know which one I want to win, and I think I’d like it if they joined forces. Will they be able to take on the Cleggertron at its own game? Sounds a bit cartoon-y to me. Hence a t-shirt for you to enjoy today that features the Super Miliband Bros.

Mug Shot!
Lindsay Lohan has the unexpected knack of making Britney Spears look really quite sorted. There, and you thought she was a talentless train wreck with no purpose. This week, not to disappoint, Li-lo has been in Cannes, promoting (?) her role in the yet to be filmed biopic of porn star Linda Lovelace, and yes, she’s in character already. News released today,(which coincides beautifully with with the fact that she is due in court in the U.S. tomorrow or faces prison) is that she’s found a new girlfriend. Indrani-Pal-Chadhuri, said new squeeze, has stuck her head out of Lindsay’s closet just in time. The judge is sure to let her off now.
There are a number of celebrities, who for one reason or another have faced the prospect of a stint behind bars, and their mug shots, taken without the usual celeb requirements of airbrushing and soft focus lighting make for fascinating viewing. That, and the fact that some of them appear a little worse for wear. Last year, la Lohan was done for drunk driving and cocaine possession. So here is Lindsay’s very own mug shot on a mug. Not airbrushed, but at least you can’t tell that she isn’t wearing any knickers, which is a blessed relief.

I heart two common garden birds!
“I’m thinking of getting into ornithology” said one t-shirt chappy to another just this very week. “What? Bird watching?” said the other, rather sceptically, as t-shirt chappy is not known for his love of nature. “Yeah” (chortle chortle) replies no. 1. “Get me down to the beach and check out the wet t-shirt competitions this summer” Might find a pair of grey-tits. Great tits? hahaha” Cue spontaneous guffawing, and more gutter level humour. Bless.
So, today, a little t-shirt for puerile humourists everywhere. Technically, ornithologically and humourously perfect in every way!

Say what you see!
It’s official, breasts are getting larger. Not, sadly for those unofficial scientists out there, as we speak, although you if you stare long enough at a random breast you might well find you get a big slapping. In some circles this could in fact be a bonus, although this is not the recommended way to get women to like you. So, keeping at a safe distance we can observe that the female breast has increased in size from 34B to 36D. The male counterpart, the moob, is also said to be on the increase, however the ladies are not finding this such exciting news. Unsurprisingly.
Changes in diet, hormones, and Trinny and Susannah are said to be largely responsible for this mammary increase. And girlies are giving themselves a large pat on the chest, or a pat on the large chest, for doing it themselves, without the need to resort to surgery. As the saying goes “If you want a (boob) job doing properly, do it yourself!”
Luckily, all our t-shirts are soft and stretchy, allowing your chest (moob or boob) to fluctuate as much as it wants. And here’s the t-shirt the boss made to go with today’s news. Wonder what was going through his mind!

Something Viral!
Just imagine, if anyone had said to you ten years or so ago that someone had gone viral, you would assume that they had a bad dose of the pox, bolt your door and keep well away from them until they were given the all clear. Or had a huge injection in their bottom and were declared non contagious. Nowadays, of course, it means absolutely everyone is watching you on YouTube, you are about to be signed by Simon Cowell and instant fame beckons.
Take Greyson Michael Chance, a shiny haired 12 year old from Oklahoma. He performed a version of “Paparazzi” for his high school talent show, tinkling his own ivories whilst belting out her Ladyship’s hit. Within the the time it took to breathe the words “YouTube Sensation”, Greyson had been whisked away by the producers from the Ellen de Generes show, and 15 million viewers later is the next Big Thing. Actually, he’s very good, Justin Bieber cute, and coming to a t-shirt near you very soon. You have been warned.

Good Boy!
In a much needed change from all those election t-shirts, I thought I would go and have a look at what fashion tees catch my eye. One of the first places to go for the hottest prints is Topshop. Of course. Always a great price and good to see what’s happening right now. A lot prettier than politicians too! Lots of skull prints, tigers and hearts, mostly in moody black and white, and I love this vest t-shirt by Exposure, with a vintage print of a Victorian girl teaching her dog to beg. Great length, and at £18 a very happy price too. And not a coalition in sight!

Great Britain?
Whilst the first few days of the Liberal Democrat and Conservative Coalition Government have looked pretty promising, we’re wondering how long the honeymoon period will last. The hope that the new Mr Cs’ will cherry-pick all the best policies, and ditch the dud ones will keep our optimism afloat for a while, but the fact that the Prime Minister has inherited a staggering amount of debt means that he will have to make some harsh and unpopular decisions. Ministers are already taking a 5% pay cut, VAT is predicted to rise to 20%, and a big hike in capital gains tax is on the way. Phew! Sounds drastic. But the question on everyone’s t-shirts is will it work, or is it a total con-dem-nation?

Cleggface and But-of-all-our-jokes-head!
After a tense few days, where every possible option was explored, we finally have a result; a Lib Dem coalition with the Conservatives. David Cameron and his NBF Nick Clegg, who, having been fierce political rivals over the past few weeks are now putting on a show of united luviness that somehow seems to good to be true. The similarities between the two are being poured over, the same age, the same casual dress sense, the same large forehead, sheesh! They even looked remarkably similar when they were embryos, too. Already, cabinet posts have been given out like sweeties at a pantomime, and it seems the Lib Dems have been rewarded handsomely for supplying Cameron with the keys to No. 10. But the comedy duo act? Not quite so sure, guys. I mean, is that for real?
Since, as you may have noticed, we are avidly following the whole election/ hung parliament/cleggmania thingey through the beautiful medium of t-shirts, the newsome twosome have been duly caricatured, and printed onto a beautiful cotton number. Dave and Nick as their alter egos Beavis and Butthead. Hehehe!

Farewell, see you at the IMF!
Having just got my head around the fact that Gordon Brown was the devil incarnate, I suddenly find he has had a change of fortunes over the last 24 hours. Parliament, currently hung lower than asbo boys trousers, was certainly never going to let Mr Brown darken its doors again, but in a clash of the baddies more suited to a low budget James Bond type film, Nick Clegg creepily emerged as the devious two faced negotioator, and Adam Boulton and his full frontal interviewing technique. Not to mention Kay Burley. (No, best not, I might just say something a teensy weensy bit unflattering.) Suddenly, Gordon wasn’t quite such a moron after all. Announcing his resignation yesterday, flanked by Honest Sarah Brown, and with his gorgeous boys in tow, he said the words that melted everyone’s pacemakers “As I leave the second most important job I could ever hold, I cherish even more the first – as a husband and father” Ah, Bless.
So now he’s practically Saint Gordon. With Prime Minister Cameron and Deputy Nick Clegg, you might start to question if this is going to be “Dumb and Dumber- the politics years” I wonder how many times David will be heard to say “I agree with Nick” in the forthcoming days.
In the meantime, a little tribute to Gordon. As he retreats to Scotland to rest his weary bones, here’s a little number with him Rising the Stairway to Loch Leven. Bye Bye Brown!
