The large majority of Britons are lazy and ignorant, and are easily manipulated by advertising which uses their own children as a sort of proxy agent. With a group like Busted, over ninety percent of its fans are children, who know no better. They have no income but they are able to get their parents to buy them whatever ill-chosen rubbish they've been brainwashed into thinking they want by manipulative advertising. There's no other explanation for the success of so many appalling processed products, such as rubbery cheese-based snacks, chemically synthesized drinks bursting with none of the taste or goodness of real oranges and boy bands like Busted. All of these appear harmless by being totally inert and inoffensive to the taste, yet just under the surface there lies a dangerously poisonous chemical malevolence.
It looks as though the Tories have spotted the model of child influencing parent and decided to use it to gain votes, after observing how well it can be used to fool the ignorant masses to sell chemical waste thinly disguised as food. They will have seen how cynical record producers also exploit it to make money without having ever to go to the trouble of signing a good band, and they may have made what could be one of the most tactically astute moves of all time. It only makes me wonder how New Labour haven't already thought of it, since they are essentially a marketting department pretending to be a political party. It will be interesting to see if Labour counter this move by getting that other pathetic trio of middle-class turds with a bland output aimed at squarely at children, McFly, to support them.
