A renewed demand by Argentina’s President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner for Britian to hand over the creator of ‘Evita‘ Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber to them so he can be punished for allowing Madonna to play the role of Eva Peron in the film version of the musical, elicited a defiant response from the UK government, with David Cameron vowing to do everything he could to protect the British composer‘s desire not to have to face the music from his own crap shows.
The populist Argentinian president made her latest intervention over the musical, 30 years after she said the Argentine political leader Eva Peron was “forcibly stripped” from her country and taken over by a British task force of dancers, singers and actors in orange make-up led by Lloyd Webber.
In a caustic letter to Cameron – which was also published as an advert in the Guardian and the Independent on Thursday – Ms Kirchner accused the British government of “musical colonialism” and Lloyd Webber of forcibly populating Argentinian historical icon Eva Peron with sentimental songs sung by overacting, English singers who attended stage schools in places like Barnet.
But Cameron rejected Fernández’s call to restore Evita’s “historical integrity” saying the second wife of legendary Argentinian President Juan Perón, first lady and spiritual leader of the nation of Argentina had voluntarily chosen to remain a tired, clapped-out British West End musical performed mainly for fat American tourists by third-rate cruise-ship cabaret artists in sequinned monstrosities who insist on suddenly bursting into song in bad foreign accents.
The Foreign Office said there could be no negotiations on the sovereignty of Sir Andrew “unless and until such time as the Argentinians agree to take Gary Barlow and Cliff Richard off our hands too”.

“Don’t cry for me Argentina, I was always a bloomin’ fake anyways” said the tart with a heart as she fondly gazed at a personal memento of Adolf Hitler . . .
Gosh, I didn’t realise Cliff Richard was still alive, how is the old perv these days? Do they still wheel him out at Christmas? I’ve been out of the country too long it seems.

I actually like Madonna and the musical. Important however to have a basic knowledge of the Perons and Argentina at that time. If you did not know that half her (Eva that is and not Madonna) staff and security advisors were escaped Nazi War criminals, such as the ex President of Nazi puppet Croatia – you might come away thinking they were good people. Nice musical still.
