Watson Blog Smeared Cameron and Osborne Before

dc-gf-raves

It is still there.  Another post on the same day (now deleted) accused Guido of being “a silly little public-school toff who ran drugs parties and made a bob or two in the City” – never mind the fact that Tony McNulty went to the same grammar school as  Guido. “So Guido Fawkes claims that David Cameron attended raves, presumably the illegal sort. Well [he] should know. Isn’t it fitting that the disgusting site he runs is probably named after the pinnacle of his life’s achievement: The Sunrise rave (second Guy Fawkes edition) on the 4th November 1989.!”

Note that there is an almost puritanical streak in the attack; Guido did drugs and partied in his twenties, the parties were probably illegal.  Well it is hardly a secret that Guido has libertine as well as libertarian tendencies.  That is a feature, not a bug.  Cameron is the same age and probably equally as louche is the tenuous smear by association.

The day they launched their smear counter-attack incidentally was Guido’s fortieth birthday.  It was very irritating.

        That’s 4 Tory MPs on the make & at least one of them has paid the price – how many of the current Labour MPs are on the make over their expenses? Let me see now, Cooper/Balls, Mr/s Speaker – that’s 4 already, Jacky Spliff, Brown & Darling over dodgy renting/selling. Let’s tackle it an easier way – those Labour MPs not fiddling their expenses? M’mm, m’mm – I suspect Frank Field isn’t & Postman Pat comes across as reasonably honest and m’mm, m’mm…..

        What is it about Postman Pat that has so many banging on about how honest he is. Sure he’s a personable sort but how the hell do we know about how honest he is or not? Christ, for a start, he’s a member of this poxy, egregious and shambolic Cabinet; and I don’t notice him distancing himself from too many of the disasters Brown visits on us. His reputation doesn’t see him a member of the awkward squad. His expenses are a non-too-shabby £123,000, all within the rules we can be sure. And his 2nd home allowance is, at £11,274, towards the lower end of the grasp-ometer, but even that’ll buy a lot of barbecues and bath plugs.

        More immediately relevant, of course, is the fact that on this occasion he seems happy enough to parade around the media with the other mendacious bastards from the Labour Party to assure us how squeaky clean everyone is except McBride.

        Yes, also heard “odious Balls” saying that it was “all parties” behaving like McBride. I wonder if Balls can substantiate this? As far as I know neither the Tories nor the Lib Dums have fabricated completely false stories in this way.

        Hitler Had No Idea What Goebbels Was Publishing

        Adolf Hitler today went on record to state that he “Had no idea what kind of stuff Goebbels was publishing.”

        Although they shared the same bunker and met several times daily, Hitler was deeply shocked when invading Red Army forces drew to his attention what had been happening.

        “There is no place for this kind of thing in politics,” he said: “I came into politics to promote ideas, like lebensraum”.

        Mr Hitler further pointed out that he had now taken vigorous action to tackle the situation. He has written to Oberfeldmarischal Gustav Odonellmann to instruct that the Gauleiter’s Guide be amended to specify that the murder of seven million Jews, Poles, gays, romanies and political opponents should be clearly a sacking offence.

      UAF Labours violent group of boot boys and smear leaflets! says:

      The national lottetary so called good causes’s hand’s over 22mil a year to the UAF.

      An extreme communist group which uses terrorism and smears against the lefts political opponents!

      United Against Fascism who do the dirty work for labour at election times handing out political smear leaflets, paid for with your lottery money!

      The group is made up of extreme left wing thugs and criminals and is funded indirectly through the goverment to subvert the democratic political system using smears as it’s main weapon.

      It’s supporters use intimidation and vilence much like the Nazi Brownshirts and at many gatherings there are arrests for violence and dissorder.

      The Labour party have a extreme left wing brownshirt organisation funder through the lottery.

      When will this disgusting subversion of democracy by Labour end and when will Labours boot boys be exposed by the media?

      Self is OK as far as he goes, which is not far.

      There are LAWS and conventions in place to handle this type of case.

      What is finally dawning on a critical mass of the British public, is that the law only applies to those the establishment currently wish it to apply to.

      What is forever worse…..

      The people are coming around to this reality at the same time as understanding that they now live under more repressive laws and regulations then they have at anytime since the BEGINNING of the second world war.

      Therefore the only sensible conclusion we can come to is this.

      Our constitution is clearly not up to the job, it was supposedly intended to do, the answer is not 42, and the question is still all over the place.

        Non political Independent Blog Reader @ 9:57 am:

        Alas, you poor lost soul! If you are truly a “non”, let me remind you of Bishop Latimer’s sermon: “Neither in chamberyng and wantonnes. Beware of S. Paules nottes and Nons. For when he saieth Non, we cannot make it yea.” If, however, you mean “non-political” (which usually requires that hyphen), why do you frequent these parts?

        To answer your question, this sweet young thing is neither paid, nor bribed, nor suborned, nor a sock-puppet. That makes me unique here for all sorts of reasons, I guess, including the abilities to string a sentence together, to avoid potty-mouthing, and to have an occasional original thought.

        “Independent”: does that exclude “Global and General Nominees”, MessageSpace and those paying advertisers, — oh, and the Tory Party dirty-tricks closet? After all, there is still the mystery of the Tory mailing lists to which there may be a Fawkesian back-door (for which topic see my fellow “Labour troll”, James Kirkup, @ the Telegraph’s “Three Line Whip”, Jan 25, 2008).

        “Hard-working”: a bankrupt with “lifestyle” issues might need to be.

        Now, why can nobody respond to my original question at posting 13?

    It’s difficult now to avoid the growing sense that the British Labour Party is on the cusp of one of its periodic three-term peregrinations to the political wilderness. If an all-consuming economic cataclysm, which, if Brown didn’t exactly create, he certainly didn’t anticipate, and a still lingering anger over Iraq wasn’t enough, then the latest glimpse into the dark heart of New-Labour’s smear machine, will almost certainly consign them to as long a spell in dismal Opposition as the Tories have just endured.

    Are they worth it? From the Telegraph:

    Between the end of 2007 and April 2008 he was appointing them at a rate of one every fortnight.

    As a result, the annual wage bill for the Prime Minister’s special advisers was estimated to have risen by more than £350,000 to £1.75 million – roughly the same as when Mr Blair was at No 10.

    Stephen Carter, the former chief executive of heavyweight public relations company Brunswick, was brought in as principal political adviser with a salary of £137,500. Mr Carter was ousted last year after an internal power struggle with Mr McBride.

    The six others included Nicola Burdett, a former BBC producer employed to help the Prime Minister avoid “visual gaffes,” such as the bungled launch of his leadership campaign last year, when his face was obscured by an autocue.

    It’s not the global crunch we can blame entirely on Brown (though over-leveraged British banks went made on his watch) – it was his runaway public spending that was configured as if the boom would go on forever.

    Once the global boom stopped, his tax take nosedived and our debts rocketed.

    For that, Brown is to blame and it will take years to pay off Brown’s lunacy.

      I’ve never understood the fuss about the Hillsborough disaster. A load of Liverpool fans turned up without tickets and tried to storm the gates. The police (perhaps wrongly, in hindsight) opened the gates to try to prevent people getting crushed against them. The ticketless fans then charged into the ground and crushed many legitimate fans to death.

      Because they were all from Liverpool, it’s supposed to be someone else’s fault. No doubt they were all labour supporters.

        Mercian – you Sun reading Hoon.

        96 people died, most of them because the police wouldn’t let other fans help out, and delayed letting the ambulances in because of fears that this was ‘football violence’.

        It’s time Liverpool faced up to the fucking truth.

      Minekiller says:

      It was very tragic indeed that 96 people died in the most utterly futile way – trying to watch a game of football. The fact that they were fenced in and this contributed to the high death toll was as a result of years of violence on the terraces, something no other major team sport suffered from – which speaks volumes for the sub-culture of the whole game of football.

      I couldn’t comment about people from Liverpool charging the gates trying to get in for free etc etc. Most people I have met from or in Liverpool have been very nice people indeed, albeit that they tend to suffer from the ‘automatic right to have a sense of humour’.

      But the whole anniversary thing is really mawkish and memorials outside gates and tributes etc etc, Pm on TV, the whole public grieving nonsense. These weren’t people who died for their country or died trying to rescue victims of a natural disaster etc etc. They were going to watch a soccer game FFS. As for the blame game, that is just ridiculous – where crowds gather in confined spaces, the risk of tragedy increases exponentially, no matter what precautions are taken. This needs to be filed under ‘shit happens’ – let people grieve, don’t force it on the rest of us as some grotesque national spectacle. This just continues to fester a breeds the victim culture, which will not help survivors or their families get over it sufficiently to cope with their loss. Victimhood is becoming an identity to far too many people in the UK who other wise would lead quiet and unremarkable lives. Victimhood gets them on V and gets them compensation. It doesn’t help.

      Labour love victims, because victimhood keeps a grievance alive and keeps you weak – and therefore controllable and easy to exploit.

    “The European Commission has today started legal action against the Government over its failure to protect the privacy of British internet users.

    The case was sparked by BT’s covert use of the controversial user-tracking technology Phorm on customers using its internet service in 2006 and 2007.

    Phorm, a UK-based company founded in 2004, monitors users’ favourite sites and searches, and uses the information to deliver individually targeted advertising.

    But today Viviane Reding, the European Union’s Commissioner for Information Society and Media, announced the first stage of legal action, saying that the Government had failed to implement European laws that protect internet users.

    “Technologies such as internet behavioural advertising can be useful for businesses and consumers but they must be used in a way that complies with EU rules,” the Commissioner said. “These rules are there to protect the privacy of citizens and must be rigorously enforced by all member states.”

    It is probably true that this Labour government is soon to be defeated but what does this mean.

    Have we forgotten the evil Maggie, starve the health service, reduce the state pension to a pittence, decimate the inner cities particularly in the north, encourage greed and use unemployment as a weapon against workers.

    Maybe Cameron is a more reasonable type but we should remember that the Tories have traditionally opposed anything that benefits the average citizen, old age pensions, the national health service, the minimum wage and votes for women are some examples.

    We need guys like Gordon every so often to redress the balance he was undoubtedly the best chancellor of the last 50 years and has improved the lot of the poor and unerprivilleged beyong recognition. The health service in particular is unrecognisable from the shambles the last Tory outfit left us with. At least Cameron has promised to maintain spending levels in that area so it’s not all been wasted

    Pity he didn’t have another term though we might have seen some meaningful electoral reform with PR then we could have rid ourselves of the Tories forever.

      Brown was undoubtedly the worst chancellor in history. His cynical move to replace RPI with CPI was one of the biggest factors in creating the debt culture in the UK. It was a disastrous move, along with many others, which decimated the savigs ratio and led to 100,000 insolvencies per year – long before the “credit crunch”. You see, this was a crisis which started in BRITAIN and America.

      No, he was an appalling chancellor. I had time for Blair, but never for Brown. I don’t have time for any of his potential Labour party successors, either. Sadly, it looks very grim for Labour for years to come. That is not good for democracy. Harriet Harm-Men? No, she will annihilate the party at the ballot box. Miliband has blown it, and Purnell will only leave secret documents/data discs/laptops or whatever lying around on trains. You might have a chance of staying in contention if you elect Frank Field as leader, but there is too much spite and vitriol about Labour for me to believe that will happen.

The wholesale booting out of lefties in the public sector, together with their political correctness, multi-culturalism and other ideological bollocks. Grandparents being able to adopt their orphaned grandchildren instead of them being fostered to a gay couple so a box can be ticked. The end of uncontrolled immigration. The end of criminalising ordinary citizens for trivial offences. The end of RIPA to spy on dog-fouling, bin lids and parents who send their kids to the wrong schools. The squashing of quangos, fake charities and think tanks. The de-politicisation and increased accountability of the police to the people, with prosecution for police officers who murder innocent members of the public. The prosecution of politicians who defraud taxpayers. Quite a large number of “Portillo moments” to enjoy on the night (especially Smith and McNulty) and the satisfaction of sending a personal “Bon Voyage” card to each member of the cabinet with “Good Riddance” inscribed inside.

    PRANK emails. Unbeatable.

    This project was concocted on taxpayer’s money, from the heart of Downing Street. It was devised by leading figures in the Labour party, and close allies of the Prime Minister. They hoped to spread malicious sexual smears about leading Tories – and their wholly apolitical wives, and thereby “destabilise” the opposition.

    And he calls this project… “prank emails”.

    I rather like this new addition to the English lexicon. It could be used in so many ways. Jacqui Smith could write a similar letter: “I regret so much has been made of my prank expense claims, and indeed my husband’s prank wank. These were not meant to be taken seriously.”

    Hell, maybe Osama bin Laden could make peace with the West: “I would like to express my regret that our prank beheadings of infidel crusaders have been so widely viewed on the internet. I have written to the makers of the breadknife.”

    And so on and so forth.

    MP defends expenses
    Chris Osuh

    April 13, 2009

    CABINET minister James Purnell has defended his use of MPs’ allowances after claims he puts grocery bills of up to £400 a month on expenses.

    The Work and Pensions Secretary, who represents Stalybridge and Hyde, is the latest MP criticised for his use of tax-free second home allowances.

    Leaked documents allegedly reveal that even though Mr Purnell earns £142,000 a year, he charges the taxpayer for the food he eats.

    A spokesman for the politician said that Mr Purnell had not done anything against the rules and supported the reform of the allowances system.

    It is alleged Mr Purnell, 39, has clawed back £9,094 he has spent on groceries in five years.

The interesting part is they all say he is a shirt lifter, pillow biting, donut-punching, out and out homosexual, and his wife is just a beard. Due to his impotent nature there is probably more chance that Mandelson fathered the child! Him and Mandelson must have had something at some point in the past or why all the animosity!

    “Getting rid of Mr McBride is not going to resolve that, nor will it end the culture of terror. Senior Labour figures are aware that the techniques used to stifle dissent against Mr Brown in the past are already being used to manipulate the succession in favour of Mr Balls. “They are going to do it again with the succession to Gordon,” said one former Cabinet minister yesterday, “because it’s worked for them so far. They are having a good go at Harriet [Harman]. They are beginning to train their sights on James [Purnell].”

        June 11 2009? WTF? The General election of 2005 was, according to Google held on 5th May 2005 so under the courageous leadership of Kim-Gordon Brown-Il-Jong it will be held on either 4th or 5th May 2010 depending on the legal interpretation of within 5 years.

        Maybe that’s what Labour’s Go Fourth campaign is alluding to. May the Fourth go with you. Anyway, according to my calendar that makes it a Tuesday- (4th) or a Wednesday (5th).

        Now it may be that there is a law that elections must be called within five years but with a polling date no later than (say) 4 weeks after an election being called but I confess I don’t know the detail. But with Brown, if there is no requirement for an election after (say) four weeks after suspension of parliament then I fully expect he’ll suspend Parliament on 4th/5th May 2010 with a polling date of May 4th 3010.

    However, I don’t think Rupert has completely sealed the deal…

    “Still, it is early days. Labour can reasonably claim to have prevented a complete meltdown of the financial system; the economy might be turning up when Brown at long last faces the voters; and the PM is a master at doling out vote-winning benefits to key constituencies, many of them frightened of losing access to the Treasury teat should the Tories take over. Never underestimate the flexibility of a Kirkaldy-bred Keynesian.”

And yes drug misuse can tear apart families and ruin lives we all know that but they are here and we need proper education on them not finger pointing……”You smoked a spliff once nuu nuu nuu nuu nuu”

    Most people I know and that includes doctors, solicitors, police, bank managers and teachers have taken drugs and some of them have taken alot of them I know I was there when they did it and so did I and so did probably 90% of you reading this…..One of the dangerous things about being young is you feel like your goingto live forever so you do silly things then you grow a bit older and wise up the pattern is as old as man and will never change….

    Smear efin Smear thats all politics is these days I feel so angry and let down by our government and infact I dont think we have any effective opposition in the two parties in this 3 horse race (One with a dodgy leg) either even though I like Cameron….

After all what is the point of being Head of State of you allow this shit to continue. Here in the Netherlands the Queen has been closely involved with Minsters over the current economic crisis and clashes heads when necessary. Tough woman.

      The British ‘Do nothing’ Monarchy it seems.

      Sorry I was going to bed until I saw your posting. I think Dennis Skinner would be absolutely perfect as Speaker. You have to admit he’s a thousand times more eloquent and honest than Martin. I wonder what the Arabs thought about Martin this Easter as he was sponging off their very elegant and generous hospitality. The Arabs, of course, are very hot on the integrity of the man. Martin of course has none, ‘integrity’ or ‘ ‘man thingy’ . Even as a Grandma I recognise that.

      Autistic children are actually very very clever. They do see things in a slightly different way sometimes which is why they are on occasions misunderstood and can lets be truthful be a handful to say the very least.

      Just remember the example of the autistic lad that was taken to London and shown the skyline and came back home and drew it. It was considered so good they took the picture back to London and compared it. It was nigh on perfect in all respects. Something McDoom could never do.

      But clever autistic children can do all these sort of things and commonly do. I would lay odds Bardirect’s youngster can do something similar but with numbers. Certainly sounds like a better chancellor option than the one over the last few years anyway.

What possible reason would Labour have to not register the site under the name of some anonymous Dorris Bonkers of Sedgefield, lifelong Labour supporter and Alzheimers patient?

      Is Labour’s arrogance so manifest that they thought they could anonymously set up a major misinformation website and avoid even the most rudimentary investigation as to who was funding it? And to what purpose? The choice of Ollie Cromwell at Westminster does suggest a certain homage to the host though.

    Wow!

    Seething mea culpa by Alice Miles in Weds’ Times.

    http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/comment/columnists/alice_miles/article6094124.ece

    ‘Journalists knew all about the character assassination plots run from No 10. So why did we help to spread the poison?’

    “Senior Labour figures are aware that the techniques used to stifle dissent against Mr Brown in the past are already being used to manipulate the succession in favour of Mr Balls. “They are going to do it again with the succession to Gordon,” said one former Cabinet minister yesterday, “because it’s worked for them so far. They are having a good go at Harriet [Harman]. They are beginning to train their sights on James [Purnell].”

    I recently had a conversation with one potential contender for the Labour leadership in the future who said he was not sure he could face running, because “they” would come after him. “They got David [Miliband], they’re getting Harriet [Harman], I don’t want to be next.”

    Honestly, Fawkes I never thought this would run so far and so fast.

    You really have lanced the Broon boil and New Labour is breaking up before our eyes…

    The country has got an anti-New Labour and anti-Brown narrative and they’re running with it. Even the hacks are re-thinking their positions on political reporting.

      The last 12 years have been pure McCarthyism. The spooks, M15, M16 et al have long targetted young student activists and such for surveillance which is why we know Ricky Tomlinson of Brookside, Charles ‘wolfie’ Clarke et al have files as thick as your wrist. Same with all these fucking Labour, Liberal and Tory MPs plus the fucking journalists. It’s all there already. Spooks doing their job, monitoring potential enemies of the state. How prescient of them.

      The difference is that Blair, Brown, Campbell and all those other evil fuckers were/are prepared to access them and use them. How, the fuck, do you think the BBC were forced to back down over the Kelly/Gilligan affair? How, the fuck, do you think Brown walked into number 10 without a contest?

      Did you not watch Yes, Prime Minister? When all the major contestants for PM ahead of Jim Hacker were systematically holed by unfortunate revelations? Do you not doubt that some fucker is systematically manipulating the leaking or threat of leak to stay in power?

      We’ve all got things we’d rather the missus, kids, parents, taxman, whatever didn’t know. The difference is that the government can whistle that information up and crush any dissent by threat of revelation or prosecution. But I have to say that this Labour government appears to be the first government since McCarthy to get its hand on that information and actively build on it since its election way back in 1997. Not as an afterthought but as a fucking direct aim.

      And thus has all effective opposition and reportage been crushed.

      And their outright war on civil liberties; suspension of Habeus Corpus, removal of double jeopardy, removal of right to jury trials etc et-fucking-cetera is just their approach to building a big fucking dossier on all of us so that none of us dare question what evil the bastards get up to.

    An MP targeted in the email smear scandal claims Gordon Brown is presiding over a “cesspit” at Downing Street where staff are acting according to the Prime Minister’s values.
    Tory backbencher Nadine Dorries stepped up her calls for Mr Brown to make a full apology and said it was not enough for him to simply throw staff “to the wolves”.

    She criticised the Prime Minister’s handling of the fiasco, saying it called into question his judgment on major issues like military involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan.

      I’ve noticed that ITV news – despite having less resources – is telling this story like it is. The political bloke Tom Bradby has been a star.

      Unlike the BBC, which is frantically shilling for labour, taking orders directly from the bunker, and doing its level best to play down the story and divert attention elswhere.

      Dr Feelgood says:

      Balls made a lot of smoke and attempted to make out this whole episode is endemic to all UK politics. He was mostly upset about the e-mails becoming public, rather than the content being reprehensible, but of course James Naughtie let him off the hook on that one.

      He stated that blogs like this feature a great deal of racist, homophobic and mysogynistic comment. While this may be true for some of the comments left here by the public he was attempting to create the impression that Guido is some kind of peddlar of hate.

      Unfortunately, free speech is sometimes ugly, but that is part of the price of free speech.

      I suspect that he and Brown have been looking to see if they can bring a prosecution against this site under one of the recent pieces of ‘hate’ legislation.

      So much for free speech – no doubt they really envy the control that China is able to exercise over the web.

    Mr Christopher says:

    The BBC sites’ “Have Your Say” feedback has sent its readership off after one of Brown’s red herrings, and asks “Should the role of political advisers be tightened?”

    The BBC’s loyalty to the collapsing regime is almost touching – rather like Goebbels’ decision to stay with Hitler, so that both would be on stage when the curtain fell.

      ii. “devilling” for the Minister…

      The word “wants” is interesting since it implies that Derek Draper’s “Minister” wanted him to do this.

      BTW Dictionary definition of devilling is:
      2. an atrociously wicked, cruel, or ill-tempered person.
      3. a person who is very clever, energetic, reckless, or mischievous.

    Dear Mr Balls,

    You have an opinion of course, but I’d suggest you guard against attempting to smear Guido Fawkes and the contributors to his blog with your outrageous slurs of “homophobic” and “misogynist”. I am one of those contributors, an infrequent one I might add, and I defy you to find a comment made by me anywhere which would fall into the diabolical categories which you describe. You might also want to note, that although access to Guido’s blog is open and free – two words which you know nothing about I might add – that you still have to search specifically for his site, you still have to open a link to gain access to a page, and you still have to stick your head near the screen with a deliberate action on your part in order to read what is written there by many people, none of which I have seen writing comments which could be described as anything other than fair comment. Not “homophobic” and not “misogynist”. Distasteful to some no doubt, but still within the realms of honesty and fair comment which is again something that many of your lot and those infesting our government like cockroaches know nothing about. What’s the score in government Mr Balls? Can you answer that or is that not on your stock smear campaign response sheet?

    Of course the entire country will support the fact that “nothing was found wanting” after an enquiry into YOUR expenses, but you may have noticed there are plans afoot by your leader, to PUT TO RIGHTS the essence of the rules you say you obey, which are clearly an outrageous and immoral licence to rip off Mr and Mrs Taxpayer. Needs a list for that or would you feel easier to read it at your leisure on Guido’s blog, for I’m sure you’ll have sufficient leisure time available after the next General Election you poor sod.

    Never mind, it could be worse, you could be a politician in Thailand so maybe you need to think about how lucky you are to be in a country like Britain where free speech is still allowed?

    Meanwhile, thank you for your comments but we people don’t really have much ability to respond to them as we are not invited on television like your good self. Hence, you might want to look into why your wages are being paid by people who you appear to think have no right of reply to your scandalous accusations.

    Yours faithfully.

      Oi, Balls, in your own immortal words ‘So what’. If if everything you say was true we would still have the moral high ground. Those would be thought-crimes.

      But you….

      You are the fuckers that bankrupted the UK with a series of fucked-up policies that involved quadrupling national debt in the hope that some economic miracle will produce taxes from fresh air to pay for all your squandering. You are the fuckers that lied about Iraq with the result that we are responsible for killing 100′s of 1000′s of Iraqis for no good fucking reason.

      Those are actual bona fide crimes.

      If you were merely ‘racists, homophobes and misogynists’ you’d have no fucking problem being re-elected. Because that’s exactly what the 28% core Labour vote are. As evidenced by their recent mass defections to the BNP.

      The reason you and your party are hated is because you are evil, war-mongering financial incompetents who, where you have any intellectual energy at all it is devoted entirely to lies, rigging statistics and manufacturing fucking self-serving propoganda.

Welcome to the cosy world of Labour Councillor Antonia Bance of Oxfam and Tom Watson of the Cabinet Office.
