Proof politicians are cartoonish

Updated on 29 April 2005

By Channel 4 News

No one ever thought that politicians were superheroes, but the latest satirical take on the election has Tony Blair racing against time to save the world from his evil nemesis Howard.


Uncredibles

The dastardly Howard plots to turn the world Tory in The Uncredibles.

Blair jumps into his car, a Rover of course, only for it to reverse into the distance at high speed.

Based on the Disney/Pixar blockbuster, The Incredibles, the spoof is doing the rounds on the internet.

In the original movie, a family of superheroes come out of retirement to save the world.

In the spoof, Blair is Mr Uncredible, with a toothy grin and red underpance.

Myles McLeod co-wrote and directed the cartoon with brother Greg in a work that cost £3,500 - much less than the £48m original.

"Myles McLeod said: "We are really sceptical about all the main candidates. We have a choice but the choice is uncredible>"
