+++ Gordon Says Sorry +++
He says he “takes full responsibility”. Still no sign of a letter of apology to Iain Dale or Guido yet…

So he’s resigning?
Goblin Brown on News at Hoon
‘I take full responsibility, that’s why the person responsible has gone immediately’
Shame it’s not true
Gordon apologises then lies and lies again.
From the BBC News website:
The prime minister added: “I take full responsibility for what happens. That’s why the person responsible went immediately.”
So let me get this straight. Gordon Brown takes full responsibility – so does this mean he has resigned?
No…? didn’t think so.
So what do you make of the above statement?
Brown is a blatant liar. He admits he is fully responsible. He then tells us the person responsible has gone immediately. So if he is fully responsible why hasn’t he gone. He’s only angry and ashamed because his dirty tricks have been found out.
McBroon doesn’t do ‘ashamed’ but he cerainly does the ‘angry’ bit!
Saying soorrry, and still spinning.
Look at the Lords Hansard text for 17 Jan 2007 column WA167.
http://www.publications.parliament.uk/cgi-bin/newhtml_hl?DB=semukparl&STEMMER=en&WORDS=damian%20mcbride&ALL=damian%20mcbride&ANY=&PHRASE=&CATEGORIES=&SIMPLE=&SPEAKER=&COLOUR=red&STYLE=s&ANCHOR=70117w0003.htm_spnew12&URL=/pa/ld200607/ldhansrd/text/70117w0003.htm#70117w0003.htm_spnew12
What happened here then? Who was in charge of the Treasury then?
Dorries: “He said he was sorry to a camera crew in Glasgow, not to me.”
I see breaking news on BBC is that Dolly has now apologised!
So..that means McBride the twat was running the country and we now have, since Saturday, another ‘leader’ who now takes full responsibility – that must be what he meant..the wanker.
Still a fcuking twat all the same.
Gor-bbldegook?
Glad to see it’s not just me who noticed the bare-arsed hypocrisy of the statement “I take full responsibility, that’s why the person responsible has gone immediately”.
Stephen Nolan has just kicked off a phone in about how Gordon has contradicted himself.
I knew he was gobsmacked – but this is hilarious.
Google ‘Stephen Nolan’ – the summary in the first link comes up with what some commenter (subsequently changed) at Wikipedia thinks of him ;)
Third link for me
Another spinner at it now, trying to say that the worse of the recession is over thanks to Brown’s policies. Where did I just read this?…….In the Daily Telegraph……….nicely timed to coincide with Brown’s admission and apology. They just don’t give up do they!
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/financetopics/recession/5164368/Bank-of-Englands-new-recruit-David-Miles-says-that-worst-of-recession-may-be-over.html
Fat Boy Nolan looks like McBride
Does it mean he also takes responsibility for the boom and bust.
Today we have ‘nice’ Mr Brown Or is it scared Mr Brown? No mad dog protecting him now.
Bloody Hell. Guido Fawkes has managed to elicit the closet thing to an apology with out actually apologising from the Infallible Prime Minister.
Labour Voters must be trembling with fear, their core beliefs shattered. If he could have been wrong on this, then maybe he could have been wrong on other things?
Its on a par with the Pope coming out onto the balcony with a cuddly dinosaur saying “You know what. I’ve looked into it again, and to be honest the evidence for evolution is overwhelming. Sorry Catholics, but there it is.”
http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,21985,22136550-5002700,00.html
The Pope DID admit to evolution existing. Not that it makes GB apologising anything short of extra-ordinary.
It’s chilly in Hell today. Brrrr.
I’m sorry I got caught out.
No you’re not.
Come hide with me…
PC World is full of people at my intellectual level. Join me here!
Shut up Balls.
Why is it every time you open your mouth you speak your name.
Twat!
As we speak He’s boring the shite out of the faithful in jockland. It looks like even they know he is utterly finnished! D-412 and counting!
It was so boring even BBC pulled out and switched to something else.
Corresponent from Jockland here (Capital J for the people’s democratic repulik of Jockland please, Norm) and… yes we agree we ALL know that he’s utterly finished.
But please don’t return soliled and rancid goods as he’s now officially an Anglo (or North British maybe ..anyway a Jockland Republik denier).
McBride, (Draper and almost Brown) now finished off.
Do you think it’s too early to turn the sights on Balls, or is he going down by simply holding onto the apron strings ?
Mrs Balls, better to retain your own name in case you have to jettison this hoon later.
Oh .. you already thought of that one. Sorry.
Happy Days all.
On News 24 now, there are Trots chanting “bring Brown down” being brought out by Police.
How ironic given the state control and tax & spend policies of the last 10 years
Now he should get rid of all rest of his horrible vicious spads and donate their salaries to a worthy cause.
I thought that is why he announced his recent largesse to charities.
Or was that only towards ZaNuLieBor political ‘charities’, such as the Sith?
I bet he had his fingers crossed when he said ’sorry’!
This is purely damage limitation – they’re obviously on the run…
hehehe
A Brown apology is rare as rocking horse shit! Nice one.
He would only apologise to try and stop old Gus investigating e-mails in Downing Street further.
Brown knows he is cornered!
Ah, double smug mode.
Extra tuck from matron for Guido at break time.
Are you sure you want one of those thick felt tip letters of apology that look as though they have been written by a petulant child to an old aunt reluctantly thanking her for the scarf?
Fantastic result though.
Are you the MSM now?
Funny you should think that about the letter, I had a similar thought
I’ve just seen Brown apologising on BBC news.
And as expected the Damian Green case is going nowhere.
It’s the end of Brown’s pathetic government.
We live in hope….
His first effort.
If he really has said the “S” word, we can expect him to be admitted to St Tom’s in the next hour or so as his insides try to throttle him.
No he was sorry, not for the emails, but for being caught. What he was really saying was “I am sorry that my entire general election strategy has been blown out of the water.”
Seeing that labour have no positive policy successes to go to the country on and the last election manifesto was shredded within minutes of Brown completing his political coup into no.10. (EU referendum) Labour has NOTHING left but smears, lies and inuendos.
Now the lies and smears have been banned they have nothing at all to offer the British electorate. So I predict the smears and lies will continue anyway.
He is just sorry he got caught. What a lying tosser he is.
That’s the one.
Takes full responsibility (when he doesn’t)
Took immediate action (when he didn’t take any action at all, immediate or otherwise)
Taking action would require him to sack someone. Accepting someone’s resignation is inaction.
He should be thanking Guido for bringing the matter to public attention, as we know what a moral chap he is. (Unless of course he knew about it already…)
‘Funny that. Many people have been awarded medals for much less service to the Nation. Guido is a hero. Give him the keys to the City.
He said Sorry, but he also said that he took full responsibility AND the person responsible had left his job.
Shome mishtake shurely ?.
PS – very reminiscent of Jonh Major’s “When our backs are to the wall, we turn around and fight !”
What he said was that he took full responsibility and that’s why the individual responsible had to go.
What kind of “responsibility” is that?
I don’t think he actually apologised. He’s used more weasel words according to the BBC:
“I am sorry about what happened.”
NOT the same as apologising to the persons smeared, as Nadine Dorries can testify!
I will be amazed if you get an apology or even a weasel worded “I regret it if any bad things were done without my knowledge” letter from him. He doesn’t do “apologise”.
The one eyed retard used the word sorry but it most certainly wasn’t an apology. It was the sort of sorry a petulant three year old utters when caught red handed ironing the cat.
Brown os a scheming lying evil bastard.
You have a nice way with words, Throbber.
“It was the sort of sorry a petulant three year old utters when caught red handed ironing the cat.”
Hey, Guido, there’s a candidate for quote of the day.
To go with the school bully smirking when being laid into at the European Parliament.
The same sort of weasely apology was given by Brown in the House of Commons over Baby P. Brown was sorry he had made the issue party political. He wasn’t sorry for having accused Cameroon of the very same thing.
Gordon Brown gives weasels a bad name.
We’re all sorry about what happened but it’d not the same as him apologising.
Too little, too late, Snoteater Brown.
The country has seen what a churlish, curmudgeonly, charmless, graceless Prime Minister you are.
Well done, Guido.
I think you missed only one “C” word.
Let me add it for you. Hoon
Don’t hold your breath…
I wasn’t aware of green’s arrest
I wasn’t aware of fred’s pension
I wasn’t aware of my cabinet’s expenses
I wasn’t aware about the emails
I wasn’t aware of the value of gold
or that the sky is blue and the grass is green and the PM is a…
Gordon Answers (smugly):
“Anyway, we bought Euros with the proceeds then we laid out our strategy to eradicate UK’s economy.
Voila !! We hold Euros and now we can get 35% more £££ for them.
How clever am I then ? Told you I was a financial and intellectual heavyweight”.
so Brown taunts the Tories as the do nothing party – then is he not the “know nothing” PM?
:)
He’s the I know everything but if there’s trouble I know nothing PM
Some fucking leader then eh?
Happy gordon says
“they all stood to the blind side of me i am only a poor disabled scotsman who was taken for a ride by the bullies in my office see i am a victim”
“How can i apologise for something that i have no control over you know like everything.”
“Mandy hunnie when you gonna help your old friend oh pleeese”
Mandy says
” ok gordon you big bummed beauty just hand me the Keys and everthing will be ok i promise”
So if Clown is unaware of anything, what the f*uck is he doing there?
Get out now you useless one-eyed scottish twat
Sir B.
Please – you can’t post that. It may be construed as smeer or racist.
Let me help – Im Scots so may I say on your (and Jeremy C’s) behalf:
Get out now you useless one-eyed scottish twat
he is like some spanish Manuel character, “I know Naathing!!!”
Oh where is a decent “Basil” character to smack him around the head?
I’m one-eyed, so I can say:
Fuck the fucking fuck off you useless feckless one-eyed idiot who happens, coincidentally, to be a Scotchist.
The Times says there are more emails to come out. Anyone know anything? May have prompted the ‘apology’ and Draper’s being cut adrift…..
I asked that question on another thread earlier – Guido’s playing his cards close to his chest. I wish I hadn’t blogged ’slowly slowly catchee monkee’ on here the other day because I really want to see Tom watson’s head roll now. I’ve got my knitting needles and stool waiting.
I think the phrase is ’softly softly catchee monkee’. And where’s the hurry anyway? It’s nice to watch them sweat.
Indeed, that’s why ‘Softly softly’ was so called, for those who remember 60s TV.
G Brown has just visited the Clydesdale Bank – maybe, given how keen the PM is on offshore tax havens n’ stuff, he was there to ask why the (Scottish) Clydesdale bank only yesterday set up a major new subsidiary on Guernsey, Clydesdale International
hat-tip FT Alphaville
* NEWSFLASH*
Clydesdale Bank reportedly in financial difficulties. Jonah-like figure seen leaving the building recently.
Were his pockets bulging?
Didn’t Fred Goodwin used to work there?
The BIGGEST tax haven is at Westminster: MPs expenses.
Does mean that another bank will go belly up, you have got me worried, Gord has a certain reputation I am led to believe
So has the one-time Boss Sir Fred Goodwin
So!What’s on with Watson and did he share the same waste bin with The Bride?
Is What’s on starting to look a little florid like his best mate-The Bride?
What’s next I wonder?
I know it’s been commented on but can I also add:
“I take full responsibility for what happens. That’s why the person responsible went immediately.”
WTF???
“Heavyweight Intellectual” stuff, huh ?
So if he is taking full responsibility, why isn’t Brownstuff being sacked like the other two?
All those in favour, say aye!
AYE FCUKIN AYE !!
Aye
One EYE only?
Aye
AYE! infinity!
On the Sky news report – he walks away from the interview abruptly, not a happy chappie, what a shame.
Gordon apologises?! Put out bunting! Raise flags! Cull out an holy-day!
This day is called the feast of Crispian:
He that outlives this day, and comes safe home,
Will stand a tip-toe when the day is named,
And rouse him at the name of Crispian.
He that shall live this day, and see old age,
Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbours,
And say ‘To-morrow is Saint Crispian:’
Then will he strip his sleeve and show his scars.
And say ‘These wounds I had on Crispin’s day.’
Old men forget: yet all shall be forgot,
But he’ll remember with advantages
What feats he did that day: then shall our names.
Familiar in his mouth as household words
Harry the king, Bedford and Exeter,
Warwick and Talbot, Salisbury and Gloucester,
Be in their flowing cups freshly remember’d.
This story shall the good man teach his son;
And Crispin Crispian shall ne’er go by,
From this day to the ending of the world,
But we in it shall be remember’d;
We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
Shall be my brother; be he ne’er so vile,
This day shall gentle his condition:
And gentlemen in England now a-bed
Shall think themselves accursed they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon Saint Crispin’s day.
St Cripsin’s – 25 October, surely?
We can’t wait that long. Once more into the breach..
Agree heartily with your sentiment, but it is in fact “unto” and not “into”.
Or one more into the breech – take aim…
Calm down.
Brown has just assembled a meaningless sentence from a flat pack of words which just happen to include ’sorry’.
Could make up a set of fridge magnets with ZNL spin and get the kids to arrange them at random. Probably what happens.
Stepney
How dare you troll out this racist ,nationalist bigotry in our glorious multicultural, multifaith Britain. Sentiments like these are wot start wars don’t cha know.
Declare a Public Holiday ! The drinks are on our MPs expenses.
Mr Dick Jacqui-Five-Bellies Timney certainly held his manhood cheap! Pity it was at my expense!
I’ve just started reading your blog. I cannot seem to find the bit where you describe how you came by the McBride emails. Is it possible for you to post a link ?
Sorry to bother you but I promise I ahve tried looking myself !
nice try Sunshine.
Yeah, and while you’re at it could you provide all the other sources you’ve ever had and destroy any semblance of trust that you may have garnered with said sources.
Who cares how he got them? It’s not about that (unless you’re Derek Draper!)
Do piss off Linton, there’s a good chap.
Why reveal sources?
This is not the Tellytubbygraph
That is not revealing sources so much as lying and selling out sources, then desperately trying to take credit for what those sources discovered in the first place whilst slagging off said sources.
Read here, all explained

It was you, Tony, wasn’t it?
Nice one.
If he’s apologised he’s worried. There may be worse to come – from his perspective anyway
As for your letter Guido….you know what a mess the Post Office is in after 12 years of Labour misrule. That must be the explanation. Mustn’t it. Or perhaps, like Cherie, he forgot to put stamps on them.
Much good it may do him, begrudging and late as it is. If he had apologised fulsomely last Sunday or Monday, it might have lanced this particular boil – too little too late does not.
Any news Guido, on why Draper was taking his desktop computer for a ride in a taxi (see Mirror photos) ? Destroying evidence maybe?
I can’t decide if it was a photo-ruse or not.
Who on Earth would take their PC out like that if they wanted to dispose of it somewhere safe?
The conspiracy theorists are saying it was a vieled threat from Draper to his Labour friends….
Who knows – odd it started life on The Mirror IMHO.
Somebody who REALLY likes their computer?
Maybe he’s got some great porn on there he doesn’t want to lose.
Raw Meat III?
It wasn’t his PC. It was Kate’s. Hugh Jardon must have sent her the pictures!
May I at this point say sorry for possibly boning Mrs D on the bonnet of my Spitfire, when I was 17?
Nope….didn’t mean that at all..but it sounded OK! :-)
I’m sorry I put the T in Cunliffe street
Oh look, whilst I’m about it I apologise for the last 12 years. There. I’ve done it. It feels good. Sooooooooo good. Ha ha! only kidding.
It all started in America….now I am getting on with the job of helping hard working families.
Gordons staying whhoo, he wins again you tory tossers.
I can tell by your spelling of the word ‘who’ that he dictated that to you
We want him to stay. Guaranteed election victory for us.
Methinks Five Fingers Timney’s other half is now on very borrowed time re: the Damian Green debacle.
I AM MORTIFIED
Saw her at Homebase yesterday, trolley filled with bathplugs, special promotion day apparently.
13 more months of this fetid stinking corrupt government Aaaaargh I cant take it.
I hate all politicians but this shower of shit called New Labour raised the bar in sleeze and allowing unelected spin doctors,consultants and Peer of the realm placemen to run this country.
I was working at parliament in the ‘Major’ years (Yawn) so I know what a dead man walking government smells like but 13 more months of decomposition with this crowd. Jesus.
Yup, any shite Major and his lot could do, this lot can do stinkier, lower and festering malignantly molevelently sleazier too.
budget, june elections, troughing report. Maybe Her Maj will have realised by then that a Get Well Soon letter from Her to Jade Goody, is not what
we were demanding.
You’ve done very well here Guido, very well indeed.
But what precisely do you want an apology for?
Any news of ‘three nipples’?Has he gone into hiding:recent reports have him in Reading’s Friar Street but since the scandal nothing:probably scurrying downthe ‘ratline’…
Who will be the first minister to act as spokeperson to say “Gordon Brown made it very CLEAR he was sorry he took full responsibility”?
Can I have a tenner on Hazel Smears ?
Do you mean Cervical Smears?
Good idea for a sweepstake – it’s a long time til the next Grand National after all.
It has to be Jacqie Jackboots. Best comedienne on the box.
If Dolly has anything in that pc he just ran away with that incriminates Broon, I will so miss him when he takes 29 tablets of co-proxamol, allegedly cuts his left wrist then is found dead in a small wooded area in the country.
55 ‘when’ was TT seen in Friar St?
They are all in Scotland can’t we close the border ?
Sod off … we dont want them either!
Why not? Most of ‘em are Scots anyway. Having said that I really do feel sorry for you…they create such a bad impression.
That’s what we need – more lateral thinking !
That ozborne bird looks CRAZY, if that was my wife i would have her commited.
unbelievable. sod off!
all upper class women are a bit brittle….I should know
Sorry!!!! ……… NOT!! Look at the Brown blink rate …..
Didn’t see it – which eye ?
62 Yeah sorry about that Three Tits has reliably been reported as being seen in the company of his wife,on saturday last at about 12 .06.Since then nothing…
I have justed sect by courier a gift wrapped box of a dozen nokia phones,for the smashing against th ewalls thereof.
I remain your obedient servant
Bit early to be pissed isn’t it?
*opens bottle of red in celebration*
“Damian Green’s arrest, which began in America….”
Another crate of wine please Gordon
I’ll bet Bliar must be rolling round on the floor pissing himself with laughter. And the square mouthed frog will be highly delighted.
In full:
“I am sorry about what happened. I have said all along that when I saw this first I was horrified, (that we had been caught doing this) I was shocked (that Guido fucking Fawkes had got copies of the emails) , I was very angry indeed.”
Brown said that he had written ( in big black crayon) to (some of) those mentioned in the emails expressing regrets for (being found out and forced to get rid of lovely Damian over ) what happened and that he wanted to assure people that “everything is being done to clean up politics in this country (except to sack a few ministers and call an election)”.
Asked if he took responsibility, Brown said: “I take full responsibility for what happens and that’s why the person who was ( directly) responsible went immediately (in order to protect my flabby arse).”
The Penguin
Is this suposed to be funny tory tosser?
How amusing, Oscar.Now go fuck yourself back on Liebourlist, Kevin
please cc this to ed balls asap……
Er…yes! And the reason he his only allowed a crayon is because he can’t be trusted with a pen. The nib’s too sharp.
Clean up politics….
So is it…. I take full responsibility for politics being dirty?????????
his, most certainly Yes.
I can’t wait to see the next political popularity polls in the press!
Brown is, politically, a dead man walking.
I’m sure there will by a number of opinion polls published by or over this weekend.
I can’t wait either. As you say, a dead man, or probably political party, walking.
They’ll always manage to find some supporters from somewhere. Who believes polls anyway? Especially when they’re done by labour newspapers.
Labour 85%
Lib Dems 10%
Tory baby eating racist toff bastards 5%
This is a true poll carried out yesterday in the Labour Party HQ.
They’ll have a fair % of the public sector (forget armageddon we want 10% pay rise) parasites voting for them nonetheless).
Nothing more appealing than a self-interested Socialist.
I’m sure an apology to you from Gordon is on its way round in one of those electronically charged Noddy cars the Government is promoting – they just can’t find out how to charge it yet.
Thank you for your activities that led Mr Brown to apologise you have done the country a great favour. It may even help the Prime Minister regain some relationship with the reality of his responsibilities. It would be fitting if a knighthood were in the offing. If only!
Dizzie said…Never explain, never apologise, and thats from a Tory. Good grief Gordon.
He is sorry for the Axis of Spin and the Hub of Spoke:
and the all the hubettes who are part of the spin cycle and dry -
Jeremy Heywood – PS/No 10
Lism Byrne – Cabinet Minister
TTom Watson – Cabinet Minister (junior spin cycle)
Sue Nye – Gatekkeeper
Jihn Woodcock – spinmeister
Michael Dugher – PPA – off the record hubette
Micchael Ellam – hubspokesperson
and countless other faceless ones …
Fumigate Number 10 to get rid of all these nasty little creatures.
I know, I know, it’s already been said, but:
Brown: “I take full responsibility for what happened, that’s why the person who was responsible went immediately”
So he’s taking full responsibility for what happened, but not for what happened happening?
WTF!
Interesting parallel with the Damian Green story – the existence of a whistleblower close to the centre of power. In Guido’s case, VERY close it seems.
It’s this aspect that must be having the biggest impact – the sheer paranoia that must now pervade every discussion, every email message, every minute taken by that quiet young civil servant in the corner.
It doesn’t really matter whether Guido has more emails (though delicious if he does) – the thought that he might have, or that more might be sent to him at any moment.
So, is the whistleblower working on their own account? Or do thay have a handler?
Fascinating.
R56
Sorry, middle para. should have read:
It doesn’t really matter whether Guido has more emails (though delicious if he does) – the thought that he might have, or that more might be sent to him at any moment, must be driving Brown et al absolutely demented. No wonder they have fucked off up to Scotland to get away from Downing Street.
Was it Damien McBride who thought up the vicious lie that a senior Tory’s wife gave birth to a seriously disabled child because she had an STD, or was it one of Gordon’s bright ideas?
I can’t wait to find out ;-)
That’s so sick. Ughh Just like the rest of number 10
You’re a sicko Maguire! Crawl back under your stone.
“sorry ABOUT what happened” IS NOT “sorry FOR what happened” brown’s people know how to make it sound correct to us, but also correct for his supporters. Language experts should be called in every time an MP comments about anything. I might be wrong, but i hope not.
we know when he is lying-
his lips move!
‘I take full responsibility, that’s why the person responsible has gone immediately’
could someone take the coathanger out of his jacket?
No!
Don’t do that.
Think of us poor sods who’d have to clean the spineless mollusc off the Queens highway.
Brown and Jacqui Smith get civil servants to tell outright lies to the police to get a senior opposition politician arrested.
Brown also employs a gang within 10, Downing St. whose job is to spread lies and smears about opposition politicians via a network of tame journalists.
Is this the worst, most Stalinist, most authoritarian, most frightening government in British history?
Sir David Normington is a very smart stiletto.
I met him last year and he’s not to be messed with. I’m not sure he would bend to the PM’s office or McBride – however he’d be well effed off about a leaker on his watch making him look like a Charlie.
He’s got this one well wrong – hohohoh
Crying wolf is not intelligent.
He has made himself look like a bit of a Labour tool and waster of police time. That is also not so smart.
Certainly doesn’t impress me. I’ve watching him operate a few times and, frankly, he gets about 2/10. And he’s useless when hauled up in front of Parliamentary Committee.
“Sir David Normington is a very smart stiletto.
I met him last year and he’s not to be messed with. ”
So what? He is supposed to work for us. Too many of these damn civil servants are up their own arse with their own importance. He should be sacked without ceremony for this.
“Is this the worst, most Stalinist, most authoritarian, most frightening government in British history?”
Yes.
But I imagine the question was rhetorical?
Jaquie being given a grilling on Sky; looks a tad fragile.

She must be suffering from whiplash.
That’s what happens when you’re husband watches too much porn…he starts to get ideas.
Consider this – she was the BEST they could pick from their wimmin-only selection process.
Just thinking, why not a wimmin-only cabinet or wimmin-only PM election ?
Silly me – they don’t “do” elections for PM any more, do they.
damian green will not be prosecuted, there are many who should be ahead of him and the country knows it.
griffiths, for excessive polishing of a westminster table through friction is one obvious contender,
In case you missed it – UNITE members think the present goverment are crap according to a Populus poll
Hohohoho.
If apologies could be dragged out kicking and screaming then this one certainly was.
No coincidence I think when several articles have referred to great statesmen & women apologising in the past that suddenly Brown does so, urged on by assorted spin doctors, minders and the Milliband dynamic duo no doubt. Only a week late and after the New Labour spin operation failed to shut the scandal down.
R5 just played all the interviews with talking heads of the Government that have taken place over the last couple of days saying why Our Glorious Leader doesn’t need to apologise – this was followed by playing the “apology”.
Nicely done – he won’t be long for R5.
The Head of the Gov Info Service is on now spinning for HMG like crazy – he is meant to be a Civil Servant FFS
He sounds like Ed Balls.
Yep, he’s talking balls.
Looks like Jacqui Smith will soon be trying to get her old job back as domestic science (cookery) teacher at that comprehensive school in Worcester.
Will she have to give back the Taxpayers’ barbecue, the 88p bathplug and Dicky Chimney’s lifetime membership of the Jodrell Club ?
No, they are here property.
No-one has to give anything back, do they? Even if Harriet Dromey says so, I haven’t have to give mine back.
Obviously if no longer a cabinet minister, Smith will spend more time at her main home in her sister’s back room and spend less time at her second home – errr is that right, or something (ie whatever maximises the expenses that go with it).
Going back a step, can anyone explain how Smith got to be a minister, let alone a cabinet minister in the first place?
Its her big knockers
That’s it Gordy, you apologise just when the story is beginning to go cold in the press you complete and utter plonker.
Where are the spin doctors when you need them?
Oh, that’s right, he just sacked them.
Yes, McSnot the utter plonker.
He – and most of the cabinet – “drew a line” under all of this on Monday.
Then he sacks McPoison, scrawls a few letters, makes an apology…. drip drip drip…
If he was bright I’d maybe have thought he was a Tory Sleeper by now.
So, I guess his docile spin doctors are either rabbits-in-the-headlights now or he has assumed full control of his own destiny – but not his senses.
Where IS Mandy when you need him most ?
Well done, Guido ! The Nation salutes you.
Brown has done the decent thing, taken charge as the leader he is and apologised (subject to terms and conditions, your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up payments).
What more can this fine man do? Are you all saying that the Prime Minister of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is a liar and only out to save his own skin?
Yes.
No no, not at all, I am saying that he is diabolically hideous insane schizophrenic devoid of any emotion who’s intention it is to do anything he can to stay in power. But a Liar, good god man, that would require him to be a gentleman and offer himself out to clear his good name.
He is not devoid of emotion. he has anger down to a Tee! What he lacks is human compassion and empathy.
Not to mention judgement.
And don’t forget his nice big index linked pension.
Reading the code of conduct for SPADS
Brown is ultlimately responsible for the behaviour of his SPADS.
No one else.
Push this and it is a resigning matter.
The code of conduct can be found at
http://www.cabinetoffice.gov.uk/propriety_and_ethics/special_advisers/code/code.aspx
Note this sentence in #4
The responsibility for the management and conduct of special advisers, including discipline, rests with the Minister who made the appointment.
another knock out punch handed to the Opposition to do fukk all with!.
Well done 117!.
Guido !
A quote-of-the-day candidate.
Excellent work, Sir
“I have said all along that, when I saw this first, I was horrified, I was shocked and I was very angry indeed. ”
Should have said as much to the Smeartwats then – wouldn’t have happened then…..
Brown’s sorry for ‘what happened”, not what he has personally done – ie: recruit, employ, remunerate, accomodate, tolerate, empower a vicious attack dog whose tendency to ruthlessness was his main qualification for the job.
What are the odds of Brown being removed as party leader this conference season?
Nil
They wouldn’t have the nerve to put up yet another unelected Prime Monster
very little chance of that. a second unelected PM would almost certainly mean an immediate election.
or the civil contingencies act…
Is that the one where they postpone elections, suspend democratic government because they’re too busy saving the world and they can’t trust the electorate not to spoil it?
No chance that a bunch of spineless cowards would have the balls to eject a one-eyed-bogie-eating-coward.
And an immediate election would mean the loss of many valued months of snouts in the trough and scortched earth policies. All of course, for the sole benefit of the nation’s hard working families.
He’ll go voluntarily feigning blindness or dysentry or loss of marbles……you get my drift. Then, after a few years, when the name New Labour is just a brown stain in the history books he’ll make an amazing recovery a la Ernest Saunders and write his autobiography entitled “How I Nearly Saved the World”
Actually as far as I am aware Mr Malcolm Powers has been busy at work,on behalf of the Labour Party all week..he has not gone into hiding..why on earth should he wish to?As to requests for confirmation,or otherwise,regarding meetings/conversations/OR OTHER FORMS OF CONTACT that Mr Powers may well have had with certain persons currently in the news…well if you would identify yourself we might be able to assist..if not ,not..
Why can’t Gord say sorry like this,as though he really means it ?
An Employer can be held responsible for libelous emails sent by an employee,
Its not possible to sue the Crown, but McBride of gordon was working as a Labour supporter
Not so fast, Master Beast. Riddick v Thames Board Mills (1968). One member of a firm describing another as “inclined to become hysterical” in an internal conference call is not defamatory. They are both acting on behalf of the employer and consequently there is no communication to a third party.
I am not a lawyer but was close to one of the parties involved. Things may have moved on since then in which case I shall defer.
Sorry we got caught out!
Toilets Maguire creeps out from under his rock and writes another blog piece. He’s already getting stick from his loyal readers:
http://blogs.mirror.co.uk/maguire/2009/04/tale-of-two-damians.html
How can anyone seriously claim that Gordon Brown or Jacqui Smith are responsible for this mess involving Damien Green.
All responsibility lies with Sir David Normington and/or Gus O’Donnell. No-one else.
Damian
Perhaps he got mixed up with Damien McBride who is spelt with an e.
It is A tale of two Damians.
“He is clearly genuine in his sorrow. He is sorry that he had to fire his friend McBride, He is that sorry that Guido Fawkes got hold of the emails, he is sorry that he is so far behind in the polls, and I am sure, he is sorry that Damian Green is not to be prosecuted for the public service he has performed in exposing incompetence in his government.”
Toilets Maguire under pressure again…
http://blogs.mirror.co.uk/maguire/2009/04/tale-of-two-damians.html
Useless Labour hack Toilets Maguire is getting ripped a new arsehole again this morning on his Mirror blog.
I wonder if he’s still slumming it in Geordieland or is he back in his luxury riverside pad in Richmond?
He would be wise to remember;
“McBride comes before a fall”.
But the Hoon won’t as he doesn’t possess the intellect, the wisdom, the foresight or the humility.
Gordo has admitted his complicity.
Dont let the ling slacken he is almost bagged and tagged.
Why not thank him for this appology then ask for the other ones required, too many to list you know what they are.
Well done Guido been watching your site for ages and its opened my eyes.
http://www.tangentplc.com/tangent_one_delivers_pain_free_labour_blog_site
Commenting on the launch Draper said “I chose Tangent because they had the vision, skills, resources and technology to help make LabourList the huge success it needs to be. So far they have exceeded my expectations in terms of planning and delivery, and there’s plenty more to come.”
Priceless, what a fucking CNUT. Just because you can by a quality car doesn’t mean you can drive it dick head. Dolly you really are something else, I must say that we have got far more than you expected and I suspect it even surpassed your own expectations. :-)
He’d have been better off using it to promote the delectable Kate. Home movies he asked him knowingly…
If I was management at tangent one, I would drop labourlist on its arse. Hosting or helping a failed and pathetically contrived blog like that must be doing their credibility no good at all.
and they have a listing, pity the shareholders, probably all “social partners”
Low. It’s too near the General Election.
Either way, Liebour is buggered.
It says a great deal about the present government that the Damien Green affair has resurfaced amidst the furore over McBride and Draper. A scandal to distract from a scandal? Oh dear. Who’s worried now, Gordon :).
On Mr Green, the home affairs committee reported that “We are concerned that growing frustration in both the Home Office and the Cabinet Office may have led officials to give an exaggerated impression of the damage done by the leaks that could reasonably be presumed to have emanated from the Home Office.”.
I wonder if those concerns were provoked by the apparent anxiety of Sir Gus O’Donnell who had said “We were worried that certain information was getting out which was potentially very damaging to national security. “.
Strangely, Jacqui Smith, Home Secretary responsible for national security did not seem to be in this loop, indeed, she was quite adamant in saying that ‘I’ve been very clear that I didn’t know if Damien Green was going to be searched or arrested’. Odd that, these little adventures are usually the result of a certain amount of organisation and forward planning – titter ye not – so the Home Secretary must have been extremely busy at the time;.her statement did not make clear if she had been occupied with affairs of state, filling in expense forms or just watching a particularly captivating video. Hey, maybe she’s got a video about completing expense forms :)
What about those pillars of society, McBride and Draper? Any national security issues there? Sir Gus thinks not – read that how you will – since ministers have made assurances! I seem to remember Mr ‘Berkeley’ Draper making assurances. Of course, he is not an ‘honourable member’, and neither is Mr McBride. Quite so, to share an office with Mr McBride at the time of his known literary escapades is not incriminating. But we know about ‘honourable members’ – their expense claims tell us a great deal. No doubt all those ex-colleagues of Mr McBride are, at this very moment, pleading with dear old Gus to hold an enquiry to prove their innocence, to remove the slurs now cast on both them and the core of government. Ha fuckin’ ha. Gus, however, has made up his mind that Mr McBride, solid character that he is, is not a security risk no matter what information he may have had access to in Downing St. No doubt Gus is thinking of the public expense involved in instigating an enquiry and probably mindful of how much Mr Martin has already spent fighting publication of MPs’ expenses. Sensitive man, Gus, he knows the taxpayer does not have bottomless pockets, and, in these difficult times, is already struggling to finance the needs of politicians. He would never dream dream of blocking an enqiry to protect dishonest mates, no sir.. I bet he went to the same school as John Lyon.
The Home Secretary seems to be keeping a very low profile on this one. She’s probably on her hols. Maybe she is staying at the same 5 star hotel as McNulty, Hoon and co. They can certainly afford it – we pay for it.
Damien Green was always going to be cleared after the Tories produced Gordon Brown bragging about his leaks 15 or so years ago. That plus the meteoric rise of the ‘leaker’ from lowly-paid paid civil servant to highly paid Labour apparatchik meant Brown didn’t want that one being pursued.
This is a peace offering to the Tories.
I hope they spit right in his face. It’s what Brown would do.
“I take full responsibility for what happened. That’s why the person who was responsible went immediately.”
If ever there was a single paragraph spoken by Brown which illustrated his fuckwittedness, negligence, insanity, and evil-lying-bastardness, that is it.
I laughed out loud when I heard him say that live on TV. He’s rattled, very rattled.
Ah.. the smell of fresh kill in the warm spring air.
Gordon probably thinks he is a smart cookie, but this shows that he is barely conscious. His monster from the id has taken over.
He could hardly get the words past his bogie ridden gob
To all those out there tipping Gob-on-legs Blears to be next Labour Leader/Prime Minister (gawd help us), remember the BBC’s new northern HQ is in her Salford constituency, now wouldn’t that be handy, no doubt she’ll she will have the unflinching support of the landlord at Salford Media City and BBC North West
New New Labour strategy, get rid of the nasty men.
1st Labour woman PM Blears
1st ever female (sort of) chancellor Balls/Cooper
What else can they do?
Fuck me, God forbid- no. I really couldn’t cope with that wittering little pustule preening over the wreckage. Anybody but her.
BBC: “It has prompted Gordon Brown to ask the cabinet secretary to review the rules governing the behaviour of special advisers.”
Irrelevant; Brown employed McBride directly/personally, so he’s the one who gave him his brief; it was clearly a plan which Brown must have known about. Perhaps it wasn’t Brown’s idea in the first place, but there’s no doubt at all that he would have known and agreed to it.
That’s the key. He’s rattled and he knows if that link is proven – found or indeed published – then the filth is finished.
PS New Labour invented SPADS, therefore invented the rules by which they are governed……
He’s not sorry, except for being found out. He has done this because his own MPs have forced it so as to limit even further damage to him and his party in the eyes of the electorate..
very true; if you read his “apology” you’ll see that he’s only sorry for “what happened”, but then again if brown apologised for what he (brown) did then it’d be political suicide and he wouldn’t last more than another 24 hours in office.
he’s not sorry at all for giving McBride the brief to get him elected at all costs.
I mean, the only apology which would be right/valid would be “I’m sorry that I gave such a nasty brief to my spin doctors and then pretended not to know what they were doing even though I employed them and talk to them all the time about my/our election/party strategy”
as I say in my blog, he does not apologise, especially to the victims of HIS attack dogs. As I say, he is handling the fall out of this scandal so badly with his abnormal inability to act like a normal human being, he is doing untold damage to labour and his own election prospects.
I’ve never seen a government that reflects the personality of the PM so much, or does such damage because of it….very odd!
Brown is not listening.
Perhaps a simpler message is needed. Something like
OUT OUT OUT!
as I say in my blog Brown has not apologised. Especially not to the victims. He is so inept that he is doing massive damage to labour and their election chances.
This government is a reflection of his personality; unfortunately for Brown this is not a nice personality, one that is doing serious damage to the government….very odd!
“I’m sorry, and take full responsibility and that’s why the person who was responsible has gone”
Hang on I’ll try that again.
“I’m sorry, and take full responsibility and that’s why the person who was responsible has gone”
Nope, had it right the first time.
He is responsible and that’s why he’s “gone”?
I think I’m having some difficulty with this statement Gordon.
People aren’t going to forget that one from Twasnaeme Brown.
I guffawed when he said it live on TV. It’s as good as anything from Yes Minister.
“I’m sorry, and take full responsibility and that’s why the person who was responsible has gone”
Hang on I’ll try that again.
“I’m sorry, and take full responsibility and that’s why the person who was responsible has gone”
Nope, had it right the first time.

Why hasn’t GORDON BROWN RESIGNED? Find out here!! Great blogging and well worth a read as well!!!
http://ddtaylor88.wordpress.com/
The yellow one has come out of his rat hole and looks a bit shaky
He’s minus one of his props can someone kick the other one away please
Why should be believe anything a politician says. If just half of them lie, how do you know which half? How can anyone, ever, be sure that any given politician is tellilng the truth? That’s why my next election ballot will have “None of the above” written under the names, and I wish I had the wheewithal and clout to begin a campaign – say, “Noneoftheabove.co.uk” – to give this momentum. Yes, they count as spoiled papers, but it’s not beyond the bounds of possibility that these comments are noted unofficially and reported back to party managers.
I wonder if now that Mad Dog McBride has been muzzled and put down whether the worms and millipedes will crawl out from under their stones and resume their jockeying for the top job.
Maybe the spineless MSM hacks and lackeys at the Beeb will be emboldened to raise their pens against the great leader. Be interesting to see what toenails makes of it all when he gets back, if he has an original opinion not fed to him by his controllers
WTF is it about this McBride areshole that was so bloody terrifying, he looks like a fat wheezy little piglet, surely someone could have just twatted him
You think McBride has been ‘muzzled’.
Please, get a life. he’s there, in the background, doing exactly the same things as he was doing before. Only this time, no one’s watching. You think he’s gone?
Not a chance
You have got the Prime Menatalist to say the S word. Not quite his head on your empty trophy board yet but still not bad – not bad at all!
Respect to you man
Amazing found this on Tangent One’s website and rather than being arms length with Dolly Nomates Draper they have direct access to the main website http://www.labour.org.UK.
Tangent One creates spoof shadow ‘Web Cabinet’ for the Labour Party
6 January 2009 The Labour Party has launched a spoof shadow ‘Web Cabinet’ (http://www.labour.org.uk/webcabinet) to help communicate the poor judgment of the Conservatives in the current global financial crisis and…
Told the PM’s missus good move on the sorry front, expect a full apology soon
Brown says he accepts full responsibility…well that is good…now resign.
I didn’t hear this apology but I cannot believe it will be anything like what I understand by an apology.
It will be one of the ‘I’m sorry that people would believe that I would do so a thing…’ apologies.
SUrely he didn’t apologise for hiring the fucker in the first place knowing full-well what a nasty piece of shit he was. Did he apologise for all the other stuff that will be coming to light now that the scales have fallen from Brown’s eyes and he realises what the fucker was up to all along? Yeah right.
He’s apologising for getting caught. At no point will he be calling into question his own judgement – beyond, perhaps, in private hiring such a fucking idiot who would get caught.
He schemed, plotted,and bullied to become unelected prime minister,
Hired ‘spads’, sycophants and lickspittles; all of them, sinister
We’re using my moral compass now, Labour politics will be changed.
I think that’s what Gordon Brown suggested or am I just deranged ?
Now Fawkes has blown the cover off this nasty nest of vipers,
Revealing several nasty people and somebody called Diapers.
Suddenly, the ‘S’ word’s heard; Gordon’s actually said sorry !
Dya think it could be genuine or is he running scared of MORI ?
Dolly apologises to all those smeared.
It is nice to see that Gordon is at last bringing his temper under control though. ,a href=”http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bK2mY2TaUOQ”>Nokia sales are down on the quarter (its in the LieBourGraph so it MUST be true)
‘Tis better to apologise and be thought a bumbling fool than throw a Nokia and remove all doubt’
Hmm, something odd with my clipboard, should be:
It is nice to see that Gordon is at last bringing his temper under control though. ,a href=”http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/mediatechnologyandtelecoms/telecoms/5164801/Nokia-reports-historic-quarterly-loss-as-mobile-sales-collapse.html”>Nokia sales are down on the quarter (its in the LieBourGraph so it MUST be true)
‘Tis better to apologise and be thought a bumbling fool than throw a Nokia and remove all doubt’
Now let’s have a look at this so called apology.
Brown says, speaking on a visit to Glasgow: “sorry about what happened”
Now that is not effectively an apology or saying ’sorry’ and meaning it. It is a reflective response to a particular situation or set of circumstances. It is definitely not addressed to anyone in a personal way.
Brown then goes on to say: “I take full responsibility for what happened. That’s why the person who was responsible went immediately.”
Once again, there is no mention of McBride concerned at all. In stating he is taking responsibility he is also stating the person responsible ‘went immediately’ Now, this is interesting. What exactly is Brown taking responsibility for? – it is not clear from this statement. If as he says, the person responsible went…why is he still in post? Or does he mean someone else is responsible? If so, who? And for what? This comment is totally nonsensical. Standing alone, it has no meaning. With reference to the events to which I think he is refering, it is an impossible comment.
Brown goes on to say: “We have now got to get on with the job of creating opportunities for people and apprenticeships, creating new work and, of course, getting a budget for jobs.”
Agh, some clarity at last. Here Brown is clear in his reference and its meaning. A simple statement with a focus and clear aims. However, in relation to his previous comments it highlights what Brown is actually saying. What Brown is saying is LET’S DRAW A LINE UNDER THIS AND MOVE ON. His uncomfortable expression about being sorry is a contrived means, in an unusual context, Govern Shipyard, at ‘getting people off his back’. He has said just enough to imply his sorrow but nowhere near enough to actually mean it. It is a rous, a technique which is very familiar to him and those who watch him.
In conclusion, Brown is sorry about nothing. The BBC, in raptures because of this, are WRONG. Other commentators who think Brown has come up trumps are WRONG. Cameron et al would be foolish to believe that Brown is anymore sorry today than he was yersterday. This is a semantic exercise by Brown to provide final damage limitation for him. Brown doesn’t give a toss about anyone else except himself. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
A Good Day To Bury Bad News.
Perfect summary. Reading the BBC reporting I also noted their “failure” again to pick up on the “I take full responsibility for what happened. That’s why the person who was responsible went immediately” comments.
Has ANYONE with access to these interviews ASKED where McBride is and if he still works for civil service ?
No – I thought not.
I’m getting on with the job
Hard working families
It all started…………
This is no time for a novice
Vote for me you fucking English twats (No he probably didn’t say that but he’s thinking that)
Did I miss anything out? The man is a retarded twat.
Saying sorry might have meant something IF he had said it before public pressure forced him to. Now it just makes him look weak. If he didnt mean it, and didnt say it straight away, he might as well have not bothered.
Please will you all stop with compass its so retro.
GPS is the thing
Gordon’s Political Shit
Brown would have got away with his pathetic apologies a week ago.
Not now. The MSM is, due fear of its demise, becoming a bit more assertive.
The interviewer asked Brown ‘ do you accept total responsibilty’ because he knew the line ‘ that is why the person responsible has gone’ was coming
Brown wasn’t listening and fell in the trap. The apology was rehearsed and not genuine.
Try again, 3rd time lucky.
Some say this is a distraction. We should be thinking of the recession.
Wrong! We need a distraction from the recession to keep us sane.
Seeing this government getting a good kicking in whatever shape or form is just the tonic we need.
Keep kicking. We need that landslide to kick every last NuLabour MP we can onto the streets.
Expect more shite from ‘King Gordo the Snot-Gobbler’s minions such as kiddy fiddler Mandy, Bollox, Mrs Bollox, Gob Shite Blears, et al, such as:
“I’ve worked along side Gordon for years and I know he is focused on the job”
“We’ve tightened up the rules on special advisors”
“We need to take stock and learn the lessons”
“Gordon has made his apologies and it can’t be any clearer on the matter”
“We need to focus on the the issues people care about”
Mix that with:
“This is a global ressesion”
“Hard working families”
“British jobs for British Workers”
“horrified”
“shocked”
“It started in America”
“This is no time for a novice”
And YOU can get your own AlBeeb headline.
In the meantime elderly people continue to die at the hands of the NHS, more unemployment,a more bloated, politically motivated, public sector, less effective police and military run by Lairbour goons, more smears and lies from the cretinous socalists that makes the old DDR look like a modern well run state.
nice one.
You forgot about the ‘Green Shoots’ spin from the MPC plant, but a great post.
and the latest “Draw the line under” when referencing Smeargate
You forgot ‘It’s a personal tragedy’
A tragedy for us the bastards still have another year to fuck us over…even more.
Dear Gordon
I am sorry that you are such a lying steaming piece of shit. Furthermore I apologise for thinking that you and your fellow incompetent thieves in Cabinet and the Labour party have bunkrupted Britain. I am also deeply sorry that so many of my fellow citizens were stupid enough to vote that other twat Blair and you and your fellow wankers into power 3 times. I am so sorry about all the above and the fact that I hate you and all you stand for so much that I have decided to leave England for ever.
Now please fuck off won’t you you piss-poor excuse for a man and take that sodomite twat Meddlewithbums with you.
Hating you means never having to say I’m sorry.
One more time. But this time with conviction, right ?
I ALSO DEMAND AN APOLOGY!!!!!!

WHY DO YOU THINK THESE DEGENERATE POLITICAL @55HOLES WANT POSTAL VOTING..EASIER TO FIDDLE
I saw his apology on tv and boy did it hurt him to say it ? I bet he new what was going on, come on he employed the git and practically slept with him.
Come on the Queen. Please make our unelected leader a Lord. So that he is booted into the House Of Lords. I have a name for him. Lord Brown of Darien.
We all know that the Darien Scheme of 1698 resulted in the Jocks bankrupting themselves. Us the stupid English bailed them out with the act of Union in 1707. Now Jock Brown wants to bankrupt us the English as punishment.
The BBC has just said that the Honourable PM “has” apologised to the conservatives implied in the “deadly” emails …
No, he did not. He apologised for something, of which many of us are not exactly sure.
He is a disgrace. The BBC is worse.
I take full responsibility Oh, no he bloody doesn’t. If he did, he’d resign….
It’s a sorry mess.
Can one take ‘full responsibility’ without at the same time carrying the can?
Brown will show us how this sleight-of-hand is performed.
Guido. You may want to publicise this little bit that I just discovered in the Times that shows Gordon’s apology to be the hypocritical crap that it is.
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/politics/article6108896.ece
Whitehall sources unleashed an extraordinary salvo at Christopher Galley, the civil servant who leaked to Mr Green but was also freed from the threat of criminal prosecution. One labelled him a “complete loser”. Claiming that he had used a term from Star Trek as a computer log-in, an insider said: “That says it all, doesn’t it. The guy was a laughing stock.”
Three days after Smeargate and they are at it again, personal attacks on a guy who simply had the courage to stand up to Labour. Senior Whitehall Sources indeed. Well we know they won’t be McPoison spouting this shit now, so who is it? After Gordon said he would take responsibility for this. Bring the bastard down mate. Bring him down.
‘Whitehall sources’ — aka a low life parasitical Hoon. If the best they can come up with is a login name then who is the loser in this picture? Beyond belief that these useless muppets have jobs for life and fat salaries at our expense. String ‘em up.
Perhaps we should all try to re-discover that degree of objectivity that would enable us to remain free of Brown’s estimation of himself, and see him as he really is: not the leader of our country, but the leader only of those who believe in him, not a statesman but an impostor propelled into regions beyond his competence or moral authority by over-weaning self-ambition, not a ‘prudent Chancellor’ but the play-thing of cunning financiers, a man so deeply lacking in patriotic sensibility as to shape almost every decision of national importance to the needs of his American friends, a man whose religious background has left him with a legacy of superstition that makes him prey to the witch-craft beliefs of terrorologists who neglect to tell him that many more people have been wilfully murdered by NHS staff like Shipman, Allitt, Colin Norris and Andrew Marolia than have been killed by ‘terrorists’ since the ascent of the New Labour princes….
What it can mean when such a person says they are sorry, or accepts ‘full responsibility,’ is not easy to understand.
CAN WE STOP CALLING THE PRIME MINISTER THE PRIME MENTALIST?
Now that there is this bright “consultant” in an American TV Cops show who outguesses everybody and gets to the heart of the matter, calling the Gordon a name that can put him in the same category is no longer a good idea.
Banana Griffin!
About as sincere as a schoolboy fart… boy wasn’t he quick of the mark?
Noted how he apologized of a kind…. inScotland, well we’ll see if he does in London, preferable the House of Commons – that’ll tell us if he meant it.
Dear Guido,
A different slant. As a South African I am appalled at the new visa restrictions placed on South African citizens. Apparently we have too many false passports entering your lawless country. Never mind Pakhistani students, Jamaican chancers and Ethiopian asylum seekers who enter merrily on any excuse. we, the genuine South African travelers are now “non-U” in Britain. Sobeit (sic), We shall go elsewhere. (Sure there are South Africans “sneaking illegally into the UK—who isn’t?”—but you must sort the wheat from the chaff), Most of us are legitimate. Could you make some comparisons for me? In the meantime we’ll go elsewhere for our holidays, thank you very much. Our government has placed no restrictions on British tourists as we need the tourism. Pity we didn’t . Why should we allow you free access when we, great travellers to Britain, are now being subject to stringent entry conditions. Many of us , as I said, will go elsewhere. The UK could do with some genuine tourists in Britain in this time of recession. I, for one, will visit the Middle East inside.
