“It was as always hell to help prepare the speech, a six-week period ending up with six nights in a hotel with no sleep. Tony basically wrote his own speech, but we all had to suffer.”
— Philip Gould, The Unfinished Revolution (2011)

“I remember one of the first cars I was put into, I suddenly looked up and there were all these ink marks on the ceiling. And I said to the stern-faced police officers who were driving, “What’s this?” And they sort of shuffled a bit uncomfortably and they said, “Well, sir, that’s the previous Prime Minister”. I said, “What? Gordon Brown?!”. Apparently he used to gesticulate. So my early days in government were basically under the kind of Banksy stuff of Gordon Brown. Gordon Brown’s graffiti was basically my introduction to government.”

oasis broke up in 2009 with an outgoing labour government. then just got back together after the end of 14 years of tory rule. in conclusion, keir starmer and the labour party brought back oasis
