UK - Pig-Gate: being a tale of PM David Cameron, drunken sex, & decapitated swine

[wfgodot]

Rest assured we're not all running around porking pigs.

However, the Welsh aren't affectionately known as sheepshaggers for nothing.

Sorry, Wales. :floorlaugh:

Oi! Welsh heritage here, mother a Jones, etc.; in appearance black Welsh -- (remember, we Celts came from just north of Africa) -- which is like black Irish without the romance, lol.

So -- dour with a tendency toward mining, Methodism, alcohol, and all-male choirs.

Sheep-shagging? Yorkshire. (For a hilarious Twitter follow, check out Visit Barnsley [@Barnsley] for some guffaw-worthy digs at life north of the Home Counties.)

Pig-shagging = drunken Tory toffs like David Hameron. Viva Jezza Corbyn!

LOL...horrid and hilarious article. If anyone wonders why the link doesn't work look closely, four of letters were **** out but that is easy to guess/fix.

Maybe the sensation of pigs liver in a jar offers a particularly good likeness to the female area, I don't know.

Thank goodness. I was beginning to think I was the only one who found this story both UNlikely and UNamusing. uke:

Well so far he's only given "All The President's Men" style "non-denial denials."

Saying he's not going to dignify it with a response to a Conservative Party donor allegedly citing a Conservative MP isn't really adequate. That suggests to me that either a) he did it or something very like it, b) he didn't do it but was so often drunk and/or high at Oxford that he's not confident he didn't or c) he didn't do it but did so much that was as bad or worse he doesn't want to get into a detailed argument about that period in court and/or the media.

Is there some cultural thing about sex with pigs in the UK?

Years ago a British soldier told me a story (allegedly involving the Scottish army?) about the soldiers going into butcher shops and buying up pigs innards (livers primarily) which they put in a jar and used for "comfort" while on long campaigns, to spice things up the soldiers would trade jars when they got bored with one. :notgood:.

Supposedly when folks found out no one could stand the sight of pigs liver at the butcher. I am not sure if the story was true or a joke, but it was yet another freaky pig reference.

I've heard similar stories from former members of the Royal Navy. Winston Churchill once said that the only traditions in the British Navy were rum, sodomy and the lash - so presumably he didn't know about the pigs livers.

Independent, with some lol-ing:

Thanks, Jeremy Corbyn, for letting sleeping pigs lie

 

[wfgodot]

Tories pelted with eggs by porcine-masked assailants

 

[badhorsie]

Well, was it like a cooked pig- the kind that would ordinarily have an apple in its mouth? If so, that doesn't sound quite so gross.

No, it had something quite different in its mouth

It's a symbolic act.
