Look Out, It's Super-Gord!

1012_parliament.jpgA innocent slip of the tongue, or something more Freudian? The Prime Minister today provoked howls of mirth on the opposition benches when he claimed that his government had "saved the banks and the world". Amidst a cacophony of Conservative jeers, the PM struggled to make his initial sentiment - that they had "saved the banks and led the world" - heard. Except some fast-rising wag at Saatchi & Saatchi to mock up an ad sharpish featuring Gordy clad in Superman's cape. The Tories should beware, though - painting Barack Obama as a self-aggrandising saviour didn't help John McCain win the presidency of the United States. Image / Wurz
