The eyes have it

Posted on by LittleFears

“The eyes have,” cried the speaker. “The eyes have it.”

The members of the house remained quiet, unable to watch as wooden hands emerged from the front bench, dragging her in. She let out a scream, silenced as her throat turned to wood.

The speaker looked to the empty place on the bench where the Prime Minister had sat. The fallen ministers returning his gaze. “The eyes have it,” he sighed.

As with all wee cards this week, The original drawing of The Eyes Have It is available on Etsy for Ā£5. Linky: littlefears.etsy.com

After three years of cocking up and Brexit, the unelected Prime Minister, Theresa May, has finally been forced out by her own party. There are only two good things about her tenure. First, it takes grit to stand up and give speeches with that many knives sticking out of her back. Second, she’s better than Boris Johnson, who’s poised to take her position.

Hmm, that’s not really good things is it? Oh well, another squatter evicted from 10 Downing Street.

For those outside the UK who may not get the ‘eyes have it’ reference. ‘The ayes have it’ is a phrase used by the Speaker, Mr John Bercow, during parliament after vote results.

Cheers to Warren for the continued $10 Patronage. Want to support the Fears or nobble books, art and merch? Find me on Ko Fi, Patreon, Etsy, Amazon, Skillshare and Threadless.

  1. Oh my gods, you saw the chance and took it, eh?

    I’m by in no way knowledgeable on British politics and policies but I feel she had it long coming. But I for sure recognize Bercow from a YT compilation of unruly Parliament sessions, unfortunately entertaining.

    1. Heck yeah. She gets no sympathy from me. She’s a vicious monster who’s caused so much harm to the most vulnerable members of society it’s untrue. She was a wicked home secretary before that and helped breed the hatred in this country today with her anti-immigration bollocks. Blah, the current Tory party is plain evil.

      Bercow’s a bit of a legend now, heh.

  6. But you can’t say it without mentioning Philip K. Dick. … on British politics: I am but an outsider but my impression on May and Johnson is very similar to yours. And on the whole Brexit bollocks … I won’t even start.

    1. It’s madness. Repeat studies have shown more of the UKs population now wants to remain than leave and they will not friggin listen. Instead, they’ll plough on with a result where 4 campaigns and major political figures are now facing legal action of the leave vote. Man, I hate Brexit.

    1. The problem is it was a campaign of lies and cheating on the Leave side. 4 campaigns and major political figures are now facing legal action over the leave vote. In addition, repeated surveys now show more people wish to remain than leave. We’re just stuck with the heads of all major political parties determined to leave. Sigh.
