Philippic
A bitter denunciation.
Tony Blair is old, older than time itself. Beyond left and right, beyond right and wrong, beyond age and death. When the first cave-dwellers made the first image of their god, Tony Blair was there with his shiny spiv’s suit to suggest that it might require a blood sacrifice. When the first half-fish heaved itself out from the boiling sea to flap around in the sodden tidal slime, Tony Blair was there with his cold intense stare to offer it words of vague encouragement and then crush its head under his heel.

A slight, an insult, or mocking speech, sometimes also ironic.
'Minister will you now acknowledge Mr Abbott’s pre-election commitment [no cuts to public broadcasters] was a flat out lie, or would the Minister like to read in some irrelevant and monotonous talking points to take up the two minutes he’s been allocated?'
Senator Scott Ludlam, in Senate Question Time, July 15th 2014.
