FOR the past few years David Cameron has been trying to shake off a dead parrot in the form of Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg.

But now the Prime Minister has a circus of clowns to contend with and they are slowly but surely creeping up behind him.

Members of Ukip were branded a bunch of clowns by Tory veteran Ken Clarke.

But Ukip is having the last laugh now.

At the local elections Ukip gave the Tories a right old whipping.

Voters are fed up with hollow promises from a trumped-up Tory-led Coalition. They refuse to listen to public feelings, preferring instead to steam roll ahead with unpopular policies.

Parliament is one big circus where clown MPs serve their apprenticeship Stephen Dixon, Redcar.
