NO, IT’S GENUINELY SCAREY
eh? what are you seeing that I’m not?
Red Ed? Naw. Poor Ed. He will be feeling a little blue today now that every left winger in the Labour party sees him for what he is.
The eyes are the windows to the soul….
Really really scary.
Waiting for a clever person who is also helpful to comment on this one.
The lights are on but nobody’s home.
@naebd
I’m not clever. But click the image to see it in its full horrific. .. glory? . That seems like the wrong word. .
Thanks! Clicking it was too hard a puzzle for me, it seems 🙂
For one awful hideous moment I thought it was the Darling of the Tory party…….
James Westland
For a short period, thanks turnbul drier, I thought it was some sort of Western Blot test.
I saw Darling’s eyebrows on a Milliband nose with two eyeless fish swimming towards the nose.
I really will need to stop taking cheese late at night with my red biddy.
The mask of deceit.
Is it my connection but, I am noting, from France slow connection speeds to servers in the UK and some in the USA, and Wings in particular.
The page loads quickly enough but posts take an infinity to load and the message “transferring data from wingsoverscotland.com” fixed bottom left.
UPDATE
This post went smoothly and without delay
I saw a smiling face with a grim dark face behind it.
I think some social media thing/traffic measuring thing or other causes pages on the site to take ages to finish downloading. I checked with chrome dev tools but forgot what I discovered.
A smiling human-like pinkish colour on the outside but grim, dark and blue on the inside. I finally got there.
@ Naebd
either that or GCHQ!
No one is as blind as those who scratch out their own eyes.
Actually, I thought at first it was George Osborne and a reference to some magic powder rumours associated with him.
The Masque of the Red’s Death .
@ MajorBloodnok
Osborne with ‘city sherbet’? Away man, surely you must be thinking of Ozzy?
”Don’t shoot till you can see the whites of their eyes”.
The Mugabe-esque original looks rather scarier than the mask
I like the suggestion of a St. George’s Cross on the true blue face of Ed. When he talks about One Nation, it’s not hard to work out which one he means.
