So here's the deal, it's competition time. Let's name this latest scandal and winner will get...erm... a blank cheque from Mickey Mouse made of rubber made out for £25,000 that you could either try to cash or perhaps give to the Labour Party. I was thinking 'Cyphergate' maybe. I considered 'HotpointGate' but I think Hotpoint - who clearly make marvellous washing machines -might not be best pleased with their name being dragged through the Brown stuff.
You never know, your entry could end up being recorded in the anals [sic] of British political history if it's really good, although don't bet on it! Over to you.

FUBARgate. They certainly should be after this utter disgrace.
Maybe just put everything under the generic heading of 'Labourgate: some new sleaze', then you can have 'Labourgate 2: the sleaze strikes back', 'Labourgate 3: Return of the sleaze' etc

Too early to say, Dizzy, but how about Yellow-water. Do you know this song?
Father Abrahams had many sons,
Many sons had Father Abrahams,
I am one of them and so are you,
So let's all praise the Lord.
How about "Levygate" or "Cherie`s Revenge"

Smurfgate - as all seems to begin and end with Father Abrahams.
Oh, something in the tradition of political scandals but vaguely biblical perhaps:
Abraham's Gate
Can also double as an SF novel.
If somebody makes secret donations to a political party and receives expedited planning permission it's called "systematic political corruption". I've yet to be convinced that's not what happened.
Obvious, really: "Cash for getting £60 million pound business park planning objections dropped". Ok, it's a bit of a long title, but there ya go :-)
Wattgate?
Pun intended.
Flush Gordon.
The Brown economy.
The fundslushers.
The Bung-lers.
'The Kidd stays in the picture?'
No harman in trying that, at least.
Donorgate.
How about:
"Second-hand Rose Affair"
or
"Watts' Cash-cade?"
SNAFUL-gate94 ?

There are plenty more numbers after that, and we ARE going to need them.

'the great evasion'
I like the way that the labour party doesn't even bother to send a thank you letter to one of its biggest donors (or even make any contact whatsoever). I hope they are forced to give the money back to innocent proxy, it would teach them all a lesson!

Was thinking the same thing this morning. Branding this scandal is very important, something that can be slung back at Labour wankers for many years to come.
Keeping it simple seems best.
How about GordonGate?
It's punchy, memorable and descriptive. As well as having a that alliteration that trips off the tongue.
Builder gate?
I have evasion?
Labour has evasion?
(a play on "a vision", if not obvious)
Name that donor
Donor keebab
I donor where the money came from, honest
Well on my blog I have started calling it "Donorgate"
Does that get anywhere?
Since all sorts of things now seem to be getting out, how about
"Shut the Effingate?"
Donorgate it is methinks.
Kebabgate as they are all fucking skewered by this and it goes with donar.
