My "Inner Tosser" is telling me that ....
My "Inner Tosser" is telling me that a vote for the Conservatives is a wasted vote 
BBC NEWS | Magazine | Bling voters
THE ADVERT: Inner Tosser, from the Conservative Party
THE BRIEF: Raise the issue of personal debt , without looking like it's come from the Conservative Party
THE SCHTICK: Normal bloke is assailed by his "inner tosser", a wide boy in a turquoise suit, who persuades him to spend spend spend on his credit card - clothes, jewellery, flat screen TV, car etc.
THE BREAKDOWN: This advert has had a pretty bad press. One columnist wrote that it had "all the charm of a 'grooming' programme for naive young voters who unintentionally find it on the internet thinking it's a basket of animated puppies, and the next thing they know they're being lectured on social responsibility". Other commentators have questioned the use of the word "tosser". Last week in the Commons, Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott attempted to turn the term back on to the Tory benches. Others have pointed out that at least this has established the word counts as Parliamentary language.
You couldn't make it up
