Shoot forward to today though and when you hit the site you are presented with something slightly different that looks like this.
So that's that then. Nothing to do with Labour at all, and I'm sure not a reaction to my original post about the site. But wait, did something flash up before that final page appeared? It did didn't it? It couldn't possibly be this could it?
A picture speaks a thousand words now doesn't it? Using a redirect and a frameset to try and hide it did make me laugh though. Looks very much like 18 Doughty Street will have a competitor very soon doesn't it? The Online Political Media War it cometh!Update:

Silvwerfish TV? Whyever silverfish? Appalling creatures.
What? You mean there is a competitive market trying to attract the attention of the couple of dozen sad buggers who watch Tory TV? They must be off their rockers.
Err I think perhaps you're a little confused Bob, you're old so it's understandable. I don't think this is about appealing to people that might watch Doughty Street. I love the Tory TV epitaph though, when you look at the guests and scheduling these days it's risible actually.
Weird. It's just a background image.

But why bother? They're not hiding a live website, they're hide an impression of a live website.
I'll take it you bothered to look at www,campaigntv.org/popup.htm (don't try and d/load the movies, they crashed my broswer) for a sneak preview of the forthcoming programming???
'Welcome to CampaignTV.org. Due to exceedingly high traffic levels we've had to temporarily restrict access to our site. In the mean time, please enjoy one of these three films.'
'the home of progressive politics on the web', indeed.
How odd.... didn't notice the jpg, it was a functioning site the other day.
"...Silverfish TV, the Labour Party's favourite production company."
Little mould-loving nocturnal creepy crawlies that skitter for the dark when a light is shined on them. Ideal poster icon for a Labour loving TV production company.
Not too old to go to the footie and watch Everton floundering in the mire yesterday though.
touche! We were awful
Worth keeping an eye on that fake background image as it changes
