- Comment: For those concerned about the swearing, please remember that previous Kunts singles Boris Johnson Is a Fucking Cunt and Prince Andrew Is a Sweaty Nonce have also been DYKs.

Overall: 
@ISD:, my main concern here is that there isn't enough context in any of the blurbs for readers outside the UK Llewee (talk) 16:38, 4 December 2022 (UTC)
- A clarification could be made to the third one...
ALT3: ... that following two previous expletive-laden singles about Boris Johnson reached No. 5 in the UK Christmas charts, a follow-up was released attacking the entire British Conservative Party?
A simpler version could be...- ALT4: ... that as part of its series of songs attacking the UK's political leaders, the band The Kunts have released a Christmas single: "Fuck the Tories"?
@Llewee: I'm happy with either of those alternative hooks (I personally prefer ALT4, but should there be a colon after the word "single"?) I should say that I did do a QPQ, which was Pentapus. ISD (talk) 08:29, 5 December 2022 (UTC)
- OK, that was a mistake. I've struck through the earlier hooks and approved it. Llewee (talk) 11:33, 5 December 2022 (UTC)
@Llewee: Thank you. ISD (talk) 11:36, 5 December 2022 (UTC)
- @ISD: if you'd prefer one then feel free to
strikethroughthe other. Llewee (talk) 11:45, 5 December 2022 (UTC) - @Llewee: OK, then I would prefer to go with ALT4, and I have struck through ALT3. Thanks. ISD (talk) 15:38, 5 December 2022 (UTC)
- @ISD: I think it'd add a bit more substance if we added that the band is so desperately trying to get a no. 1 christmas single :) Actually, not a bad hook for christmas day? theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 13:53, 14 December 2022 (UTC)
- @Theleekycauldron: what about "... that for their third attempt at a UK Christmas No. 1 single attacking the UK's political leaders, The Kunts released the track entitled: "Fuck the Tories"?" I should say, that personally I would prefer the hook to go out sooner than Christmas Day, as the battle for the Xmas No. 1 ends on 22nd December, with the announcement on the 23rd.

- Please note this article has been moved to "Fuck The Tories", so please change the hook accordingly to reflect this please. ISD (talk) 08:57, 24 December 2022 (UTC)
- How are any of these hooks intriguing or unusual? EEng 14:21, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
per a discussion at WT:DYK, I'm going to mark this for closure. If there's no movement on this, it should probably be closed in a day or so. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 07:37, 31 December 2022 (UTC)
