"But it's crazy! Communities need nurses and teachers!"
Satire from Yesteryear [Monkey Dust. 2003-2005]: Blair promises "houses people can actually afford"
Monkey Dust was an excellent satire, running from 2003 to 2005, which sadly ended when its co-creator Harry Thompson passed away. Its satirical leanings hold strong now. Check out the link from approx 5:52 onwards depicting Tony Blair's Manifesto with regard to houses... with a great offer by an estate agent at the sketch's end... These writers were on the money and are sorely missed.

“We have got to win people back to our side. We are a national party, a party that represents people in every part of the United Kingdom, and we are going to offer policies that will benefit people in every part of the United Kingdom.”
Actually said by Lord Mandelson yesterday. Sounds like it could come straight out of Monkey Dust.

Monkey Dust was amazing, didn't realize the creator had passed away :(

Yeah I did wonder why no more were made.
You can get series 1 on DVD, and the other series are available erm ... elsewhere on the net.
