Spot the Difference!

Jump to Comments

Eeeek! Tories

Look at the photo on the left.

It’s billed as Worcestershire’s Tory MPs gathered together at their annual conference, and it appears on the site of Tory PPC Harriet Baldwin (2nd from left). You can see it here.

See the strangely spaced bodies. The odd angles, the strange, blank, blue background with no shadows. The odd disconnect between sizes of bodies.

Got to be photoshopped, right?

That’s what I thought.Then I saw the photo underneath it on Tory candidate Mark Garnier’s website (he’s on the far, far left).

we is in your fotoshop fakin our MPsYou can see this photo here.

There’s a subtle difference between the two that hints that all is not right with the integrity of the image.

Can you see what it is yet?

That’s right, there’s an extra oddly placed head in the photo.

Now this one look certain to have been photo shopped. It looks like Tory MPs have been faking their campaign photos. and after all that outrage, too.

Let’s quote Tory Culture Spokesman Jeremy Hunt’s Conference speech:

“We don’t want any fakery at our conference do we?” No we don’t, Jeremy.

The new woman appears to have a strong light source coming from her right, which neither Garnier nor Kirkbride are enjoying, and, unless she’s about six foot tall, the perspective between her and Peter Luff is very, very odd.

This is pretty clearly a photoshop job.

But wait, there’s more!

Tory PPC Robin Walker has a facebook page, with the same photo.

Well, I say the same photo, because, well, it’s not quite the same photo.

Strangely distorted Tory MPs? Check.

Mysterious new woman inserted? Check.

but this time, there’s a different shot inserted into the photo. See for yourself.

different-heads.jpgSee? That’s definitely different to “version 2″.

Let’s go in close for a comparison.(I know, seeing Luff and Kirkbride so often is freaking me out too, but sacrifices must be made).

It looks to me like a different hairstyle, different jumper, and very different light.

So who is the mystery woman who got all of Worcestershire’s Tory MPs and candidates to fake a photo with her, not once, but twice? Inquiring minds need to know….

Answers in the comment box please.

and remember kids, Tories don’t want any photoshop fakery at their conference. … Unless it’s them what’s doing it.

(Edited because I got Garnier and Peter Luff confused when I first write this… all the Tories clearly disoriented me!)
