The clip appealed to my English sense of irony............. it's a thing that helped us survive two worlds wars…………. Irony that is.

Hi Pete..
After I re read your posting the light came on and I realized you were refering to our tax man lampoon..The chap that is taking the knee to the package is a Newfoundlander,who has his own comedy show..a lampoon of the news of the Day..Rick Mercer,has the Mercer Report every Tuesday night,and I just have to watch it to see what he is going to come up with next..
Last Tuesday he was visiting at 24 Sussex(Your 10 Downing St),and he has the priminister and his 12 1nd 10 year old playing ball hockey in the front room and the priminister tucking him into bed and Rick falling a sleep with the PM reading him a bedtime story...a big bound copy of his latest controversial policy statement..
He is extreamly funny and popular and the politition love to be lampooned by him...
I guess that if they don't co-operate with him he'll really stick it to them..
So yes it made me laugh and if you can find any other skits of his ,you'll probably get quite a chuckle out of them.
Check him out here..
Enjoy..
