Blogging Tory MP Signs Downing Street “Just Go” Petition
Any minute now the “Just Go” petition on the Downing Street website will be the number one issue on Gordon’s home page, helped on the way by the support of Douglas Carswell MP*, the blogging MP who added his name to the list this lunchtime. When the digital engagement team in Downing Street came up with this wheeze they didn’t really think it through did they? The coverage has been widespread and uniformly bad for Gordon:

Wonder if Tom Watson, the Minister for Mudslinging and Digital Engagement, has had to duck a Nokia today?
*Charles Clarke MP probably is not a genuine signatory. Or is he?
I want him to be there come election day,personally.
it’s a tough one. harriet harperson could be even worse, and no, i’m not joking.
I want him there so he gets his very own special moment when the votes come in and the PM loses his seat. Has that ever happened before?
Do you reckon we could get the Tories to put Hannan up against Brown in the election? Or do we go with the SNP and let the Tories and Lib Dems not field a candidate so it’s a straight fight??
Anyone taking any bets on how ling it will be before the stinking vermin and filth at the BBC deign to mention that the most popular petition (after 5 short days) is one calling on Bonkers to fuck off.
how about “how long”
Well use your signature on this one then, fire the useless chancellor. It could do with bit of help.
http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/aladarling/
Done.
Duly signed
Done – with pleasure
I have done my civic duty!
It is now the top petition, achieved in only 7 days.
This will not force Brown out, but will add to his embarrassment.*
This is not the tipping point for Brown; I think that has already been reached, over Easter with Smeargate.
The charmless, honourless oaf will continue buggering up this country and economy until he is dragged from No. 10 in 2010. In so doing, he will ensure that Labour is unelectable for more than a decade. His downfall is entirely of his own making.
* If anyone who picks his nose, eats his snot and then wipes his fingers on his tie can be said to have any sense of embarrassment.
Meanwhile, the Pro-Brown petition, which has been running since Monday, stands at 15 votes, of which at least 2 are bogus.
15 votes for Brown in 2 days; 30,000 votes against Brown in 7 days.
P.s. Did I mention that Brown is a repugnant snot-eater?
Ding ding, number 1 spot achieved!
It’s No 1!!!!!
its number 1!
Is it no. 1 yet?
Rub it in, send him the shirt off your back
Tweet from davidjstringer 16.03
# Brown’s spokesman says Gordon Brown won’t heed e-petition calling for him to quit “He’s focused on the big economic challenges” he says
Oh well that’s all right then.
It’s what we pay him for. after all.
It started in America, apparently.
Now No1 petition with 29,000
10 minutes to go he he.
how may other people are sitting there hitting reload?
28316
Anyone here old enough to remember when the Sex Pistols “God Save the Queen” was at #2 in the chart for about 10 weeks, even though there were outselling the rest of the top 10 combined?
Looks like 15:30 if they are going to let it be #1…
Bugger missed 1st place at the 3 o’clock update by 14 votes. Oh well 10 minutes to go.
God it feels like new year, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 …….. Happy screw ya.
LOL..Pity I missed it
Hopefully this being the most popular petition on the No10 site will boost the numbers further :D
I was most happy to add my name and do my part.
Only abotu 10 more names needed to be No1..
Wahhoooo No 1
I second that emotion! :-)
Maybe, but I didn’t sign the last No. 1….
I’ve also signed this one calling for Scrotum Face Brown to sack Alistair Darling.
http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/aladarling/
I would rather see this one happen and leave GB in office for the election – he’s our best weapon. You have to trust him to cling on grimly and the cabinet to be too spineless to oust him.
Anyway it’s all propaganda – fun though (if the government wasn’t so shameful)
I think they can now feel our pain! :)
Darling signed for :-)
What’s the chance we can get this one to #2 in the chart by next week??
Hats off to Kalvis for the idea and Guido for the forum, much enjoyment over the past week!
Hats off to Kalvis. We have a new national hero.
Hear hear. It’s been great fun but now we must keep up the pressure. How’s the petition for him to continue doing?
Have a laugh over at labourhome,
‘Brown has to go, and soon’,
http://www.labourhome.org/story/2009/4/28/82152/3125#43
The comments are enlightening.
Hat tip to someone or other, forgot where I clocked the link to this, sorry!
Shows even they are thinking of ditching Brown
One finds it reasonable that the Opposition supporters and even a few of the general public might want to see him go – but this is a LABOUR blog saying he’s got to go now
bye bye :-D
I think it was me :lol:
RSS feeds really are most enlightening! Although I do have to wade through oodles of nonsense to find a little gem.
http://plato-says.blogspot.com/2009/04/so-what-do-labour-faithful-think-of.html
Thanks Plato and sorry for not crediting you properly.
It is the comments on the story that surprised me at first.
Perhaps, it isn’t that strange that people who are inherently loyal to labour are the ones most critical of Brown and the damage he’s doing to labour.
It’s the wailing and gnashing of teeth that is amazing.
Self-awareness dawns.
It’s like watching a child grow up (okay it’s an ugly sociopathic kid, but it is still trying to be kind to its mother – in its own way)
Did you notice that the whole thing was posted by someone called ACLB? (http://www.labourhome.org/user/ACLB/diary)
The longer Gordon clings on the better (in the long run)
The Penguin
Penguin you are so right. The prospect of Broon being humiliated at the GE – hopefully with the LD’s getting second spot. Then the infighting as the PLP try to find another leader is so mouthwateringly wonderful I am almost ready to suffer another twelve months for the prospect. Damn – I’ve signed the wrong petition!!
Cool. Two number ‘1’s. Are they both ‘First!’? Or only the first one.
No only the second one.
There have never been two No 1s on political-betting
You bastards – after I spent all afternoon yesterday petitioning for him to stay – that’s how it works innit? Vote early, vote often – anyone got a stamp?
Koff. Now.
McMental will be pouring over every email adress and marking them with a huge green inked felt tip pen with deluded plans for revenge, then his afternoon “special medicine” will arrive and all will be well again.
Mandy giving him a hot lotion rub down?
I was hoping to get a letter of apology
You are George Osborne and I claim my £5.
It’s touch and go whether the geeks will manage to delay the rise to the number 1 slot. At the last count, the deficit was 164 but the increase in allowed signatories was just 159 over the half hour. I’d bet they’ll suppress it, as they’ve been doing all morning.
And I was right! 13 more sigs required. Now at 28316
Just 154 added in past half hour
Is the psychology only a former nu Labour troll can come up with.
Regardless of underlying truth, suggest emailling everyone you know saying they can make a difference to get it number 1
Has everyone checked to see there name is definitely on there?
That might be advice worth handing out. if we can argue they are fudging the results they pay right into our hands.
Mwuh hah hah … ahem…sorry
Has the walkabout Prime Mentalist been roped into the Nadine v Damian 666 flying writ fiesta?
At least he will now have good reason for soiling himself.
The Curse of the One Eyed One strikes again – Andy Murray beaten by Argentinian.
yeah but hes a scotsman, so not a problem, when he wins hes british
Too true Sassenach – just like in football – when Scottish fans riot they’re Scottish, when English fans riot they’re British. at least according to the Bolshevik Broadcasting Corporation.
When English fans riot they are mostly Scottish
13 signatures behind the current #1 – a matter of minutes to go!!!
The count has not gone up 1 signature in a couple of hours. This petition is locked I think. Though it doesn’t say so.
The man (Stumble Broon Skin) at least deserves credit for taking the longest time to walk the plank in the history of man. (Sorry history of Hoon’s)
Go on jump man it’s only water.
Damn sight better if it were boiling oil.
But they have keep a room for him in the scrubs
Its not the water that’ll kill him, its the dozen hungry sharks waiting in the water and the swine flu-infested piggy with the aqualung.
I hope they get to over 1m signatures. Better still, hope the useless lump of lard announces his resignation tomorrow morning. And he can take his Darling with him!
Better to let them both stay and face daily humiliation and popular scorn as per pornographic jacquiboots and her bathplug.
The media crescendo will rise and rise until finally noone takes them seriously anymore when they will finally just melt at the ballot box – like candle droop.
Bathplug? Another one? You greedy bint.
I can just imagine them all running round like headless chickens at No 10. ‘What the fuck do we do now, and how we suppress the results?’
Totalitarian scum.
I understand that Cameron is busy getting all his family and mates to sign the Brown must stay petition.
After all, what better way to win the election?
The next refresh is at 3.30. And then we’ll be top of the list:

They can’t even fiddle an internet poll without cocking it up.
The blocking of this one has been hilariously obvious.
Fortunately, their are ten of thousands of eyes watching them do it – hahaahah
oops those fish fingers have clouded my spelling :roll:
I didn’t know fish had fingers.
A sad demise for this Labour government that so many back in 1997 expected to be permanently ‘purer than pure’. I was never one of them.
And he said at PMQs that he would continue to use YouTube ‘the best communication medium’ even though his opponents would not.
“Rejoice at that news, just rejoice..!”
For his next YouTube appearance, perhaps he could be persuaded to wear this, just to remove any lingering doubts as to what he really is

I am shocked.

*gets mind bleach out*
You are definitely Ed Balls, I remember you from the Nottingham High School; and I claim my £5.
Wow! A petition! Thats raellie gort us woried!
Stay cool Tom, there’ll be more….
As opposed to: “Wow! A General Election! That’s really got us worried!
As opposed to f***s sake where has my pension gone, thats got a lot of us worried !
Not THAT Tom Millar, left click his name to see where this one’s from.
I tried signing “Brown Must Go” petition. It sent me an email but refuses to update the numbers and show my name.
I then tried adding my name to another petition on the 10DS website. Surprise suprise – my name immediately appeared.
Seems the control freaks have stopped accepting names on ‘Brown Must Go’ to keep it from being most popular.
Here is Democracy in its true form.
Your name is Marlin, apparently
Tra laa!
What a day! Thank you to everyone for getting this moving. Once we hit the top, we move onto stage II.
What is stage II? :)
A week is a long time in … and it really is just a week.
And thank you, from everybody here and elsewhere who have signed.
Proper Job
Well done Kalvis, it’s top of the list now!!!!
28454, and counting…..
Big thanks from me too, Kalvis. It just takes one determined person to make a change. The end of NuLab and national embarassment Brown is nigh.
Well done Kalvis, good job. You are aware you won’t be on this year’s Civil List.
Done and out
Just 13 signatures to go…..
Everyone got the champers and poppers ready to go?
Yes, very absorbing
On a more pleasant note, let’s hope the “millionaires row” theme works well in relation to standards for MPs.
Judging by the fowl squawking from the Conservative benches it will hit its mark.
The electorate have a right to examine in detail MPs’ assets and sources of income.
Tra laa!
I’d rather have millionaires who know how to look after the country’s cash than wanabee millionaires stealing it.
You mean like the Conservative Party paymasters, the banksters?
Real people, that means not you, are aware of the rampant thieving in the banking sector that has brought about the global economic and financial crisis.
Lots of the Conservative spivs are stewing in their own mess, example David Ross formerly of carphone whorehouse fame until he had to resign from the board for shady dealing. He’ll soon be on Cannery Row.
Tra laa!
Why?
How about:
Lord Sainsbury?
Geoffrey Robinson?
Lord Gould?
That’s just off the top of my head, sure there are plenty more.
You’re living in a glass house mate
“Glass house”?
Ambrose_pride?
Student squat more like it and stealing his mate’s fridge food.
You have the poultry view on this then do you?
Tra laa!
‘Cash for honours’ ring a bell? Hmmm?
and amendments…
I would like to know how much the Liebour front bench has earned in 12 years of mismanaging this country, including Blair, he must be touching on a couple of million. Oh, and I wonder how much Mandy has in his blind investments? I guess enough to disapear to Alcopolco when they finally get booted out next year.
Like someone else says, better have millionaires who know a thing or two about running successful businesses run the country than this bunch of career students to career politians, never had a real job bunch of numpties!
Donald Dewar’s estate was valued at more than £ 2 million. I’ll bet the rest of these scum are doing even better.
Strange that; Tory MPs are millionaires BEFORE entering Parliament, whereas Labour MPs are AFTER entering Parliament. Where did that money come from??
Labour are finally playing iffy.
POOR RNLI ARE BECOMING A PAWN AS THEIR PETITION IS BACK UP ;)
Just signed the RNLI epetition

Thanks for all your help, knob jockey..
Both petitions are for a good cause. Or have you missed that simple point?

How long are they going to suppress the totals update? more than 500 sigs in the last 15mins and we’re still 13 short!
TOP OF THE LIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WE DID IT!!!!!!!!!!
Mr Ned it might be a long wait – the number has been mysteriously stuck on 28316 for ages.
PS Sorry I’m new here. Who is Tom Miller and why does his name link to a gay porn site? Does this mean he is Jacqui Smith’s husband in disguise?

Sorry, I meant Lord Dr Kalvis
We salute you, Kalvis Jansons!
Top of this list!
Wahaaaayy!!!
We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to…
resign. (28454 signatures)
Wha hay
It’s top of the pops now…
Woot #! 28454
DONE IT…!!!!
We need to keep the momentum going as it needs to be overwhelmingly obvious to even the thickest Labour apparatchik/MP that the country want shot of him and if they won’t do it then they will pay the price at the forthcoming General Election
To give number 10 credit — I believe that Blair originally set out to be open and honest (vis. freedom of information act).
He did come clean and say that it was naive (indirectly admitting that he found it unsustainable).
If number 10 had any credibility/dignity, people would be saying this petition was childish and worthless. As it is everyone sees it as one of the few ways to make the government listen.
Sorry they updated it while I was typing.
Done: 28,454
That’s more like it!!!!!!!!! ;)
I detected a strange atmosphere in the house today , and Cameron seemed to be holding back. Could it be that both the opposition AND his own front bench are waiting for something to happen. Has Brown been given a little time to consider his options.
The same thought occured to me.
It was a bit too quiet.
They were all nervous about the flu but too embarrased to wear masks.
MP’sFlu is latest Liebour distraction politics.
Insanity reigns over a few feeble shivers, take aspirin and go to bed my old doctor would say.
They are both supporting the hype of the swine flu and trying to appear statesman like.
I have to say it was very odd seeing Brown ACTUALLY ANSWER questions put to him with relevant and reasonable answers.
He hasn’t done that in months!
Then the topic changed to the disgusting treatment of the Gurkhas and he reverted to the titwad he usually is.
who you calling relevant ya Kunt.
HAHAHAHAHA Brown, Up yours, let this sit for ages as the top petition until the toerag gets the message and let it be a constant reminder that the country hates you.
We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to…RESIGN YOU INCOMPETENT TOSSER!
I wasn’t picking my nose..I was just smelling my finger tips.
BTW, I am going to put a coupleof quid in the nearest RNLI tin since we knocked them of the top.
Well helping the RNLI will only help the few who choose to voluntarily venture into a dangerous place and get into trouble there.
This petition is to help EVERYBODY get rid of the tit in chief!
I’m going for a Pint.
Tra la, la, twiddly dee, dee
HUZZAH, Number 1 Petition now!
What nice round number (the kind McMental seems to love) wil need to be hit for this to go viral like the Dan Hanan speech? 100K, 250K, 500K?
Number 1….!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now just go Gordon.
Good news indeed Ladies and Gentlemen
NUMBER ONE OFFICIALLY!!!
Congrats to all that signed it, NOW tell all your friends to sign it too!
How long before we see a Downfall video about this? What larks!
Could someone squeeze in Adolf throwing a Nokia rather than a pencil? :-)
its number one now!
Surely the MSM news will have to run it now? I ally myself to no party but I’m loving this loads.
It’s number one.
Resign. 28454
Protect the RNLI from paying licence fees for using Maritime radio frequencies. 28334

Maybe it’s just your mouse thats fucked
I wonder which poor person is going to have to be the one to tell Brown, probably pulling straws right now. 1 more printer for no 10 please.
Yippee
Excuse me, there’s a queue
It started in America
I nominate – Bob Roberts of Worcester(allegedly)
They should make sure there are no sharp objects nearby before breaking the news to Gordy.
I can see all those aides in No 10 going
“you go”
“its your turn
“no way am i going in there”
“ok on 3, rock paper scissors”
“oh crap i lost”
“ok where did we put the padded suit, those nokias dont half leave a mark”
“oh hang on here comes Harriet, harriet lovey could you give this to PM please, we’re in an awful rush, bye”
This is going to have to be one hell of a good ’shit sandwich’
So can we ask Jaqui smith to resign as well ?
One at a time, please!
It’s already there: Sack Jacquie.
Wow!
That’s just over the population of Berwick on Tweed!
Alnwick next!
Tra laa!
It’s real people you’re talking about, Ambrose. The British don’t like being ignored or pushed around. You lot have got some hard times coming.
Bollocks! The brits are the most spineless cretins on the planet!
Oh, and do those opinion polls with only 26-28% support for Labour and 42-45% for the Conservatives mean nothing too?
Woof woof, good dog Blondi
With all due respect to Berwick on Tweed or Alnwick, they’re not big places.
Perhaps your happy ejaculations are premature.
Tra laa!
That Kirkcaldy & Cowdenbeath is not a big place though is it? And only 24,278 votes were received in 2005 in favour of Gordon Brown. Assuming you are ok for me to ignore the likes of Mr S. Notgobbler etc?
And Jack Straw, Geof hoon.
You get the point.
That chump Gordon Brown better stop throwing printers and stuff around. We’re the ones paying for it. Although, when I saw Jaqui Smith’s husband apologise for claiming expenses for the porn, I thought it was the best 10 quid we ever spent!
If anyone’s looking for a cheap (and tacky) present for someone, I’ve noticed that Amazon have reduced the price of Life Support by Derek Draper. It gets a good review as well.
Now only £4.94.
Too dear – you can get it for £1.99 in Bookends !!!!
Dont’ bother, he doesn’t deserve the royalties.
they’re signed
50p is too much.
The signed ones are worth less…
As much as that?
I think its just laughable that slapheaded twat Toenails closes his blogs to comments.
Yes, his Statement of Intent
He’s on his way to Old Trafford.
Why don’t you just email him instead
nick.robinson@bbc.co.uk
Nothing like one to one engagement with the BBC.
Does anyone else think that Cameron is going easy on him now at PMQs because he knows he is worth 30 seats to the Tories and does not want them to ditch him before the election.
Exactly
Yep – but I think you have undershot the seats lost:Brown ratio
Or – as others have suggested on here – he knows something we don’t. There is no political mileage in wasting a bullet on a dead man.
Could be. Or it could be that Cameron is part of the same elite club as Brown and the other fuckwit elitists in the establishment and therefore does not want to kill off labour, just relegate them to the opposition benches for a Parliamentary term or two, before they continue to zig-zag us, left and right, ever closer to their fascist new world order.
Brown has never been a member of an Elite Club. We need to use people occasionally, just like you people need to use a handkerchief (which he didn’t). Go easy when we release him, ok?
The next 10 years of tory government will be exactly like the first 10 of new labour in 97 – they spend them blaming their predescessors.
I stopped posting on there. I don’t know why he doesn’t just shut the thing down altogether. If enough comments are made against Brown, it just closes.
Judging by the numbers contributing to Toenails blog, so have about 100 others stopped posting, me included.
See, I don’t care if Polly or Maguire close their blogs. They are not publicly funded. But Robinson has a mandate to be critical where necessary and boy does Brown deserve it. He is so short sighted on Labour’s failings but has no problem giving you a history lesson from 300 years ago.
Screw him.
Expect to see him in a left wing think tank next year.
He’s on the way out, no matter what wee Ambrose says. How wonderful. I wonder whether they’ll go for an immediate election? Perhaps he’ll call it himself to stop his enemies on the Labour Party getting a go in No 10. On the other hand, I suppose his supporters will be filling their boots as fast as they can and won’t want the gravy train to be stopped until the last possible moment.
Sorry Ambrose – it’s not if, it’s when and how.
Fa laa!
Bring it on!
I’ve waited twelve years for this.
Twelve years, that is, in which my country has turned into something unrecognisable.
It all started with Cool Britannia. I knew then we were screwed.
Agreed, the evil swine. Let’s be rid of them as soon as possible.
I hope they don’t think we will stand for them appointing another unelected twerp as PM if the One Eyed Hairy Waffler resigns.
ELECTION OR MUTINY ME HEARTIES
Lawful Rebellion would be much more fun. Also it removes their excuse to invoke the Civil Contingencies Act.
http://www.tpuc.org
Is that the same as mutiny only posher?
Explain please your web site link to to it doesn’t seem to work.
Either way no more slime Balls slithered in to the PM’s job.
It’s ok sir it works again now; just a quick tweak needed this end you’ll understand as this site was, ahem, under our radar till now. Carry on, sir.

[Translation :
Let's be clear. An obnoxious little shit like me never listens to anyone. Or reads criticism.
SO sign all you like you miserable troublemakers. I'll TAX you all I LIKE! And I even shut your blogs.
Besides which, I've done nothing to be sorry for - or ashamed! Just bankrupted the UK. Which surely, is what everyone expected when they voted my predecessor and me in.
So quit moaning, pay up, and get on with your work - if you've got any!]
I saw the following petition as well, the mealy mouth bastards!!!
overturn the decision by Wealden District Council to refuse planning permission for a purpose built home for Marine Joe Townsend, who lost both legs in Afghanistan
Link please
I think they already have.
http://www.wealden.gov.uk/council/media_releases/2009/JoeTownsendPlanningStatement.aspx
I think most of the cabinet and Labour want him to go, this is about limiting damage now. The only thing they are probably worried about is if Brown will not go quietly and is determined to take everyone with him.
We are ready and on standby when needed!
brides in the bath circulates his new mobile phone number to select lobbyists – gossip in the Independent.
Crap paper, but is it true?
is it a Nokia handset?
Petition server overloaded as of 3.50ish…
Number 1 – Gordon’s a GoGo
The Great Slug bottled an election and so was not elected as PM. He won’t want to loose the election as PM and so will wait to the last possible opportunity to resign for reasons of ill health and leave the jackals to fight over the remaining days of the premiership.
If Labour want the faintest chance they will need to have a quick coup now and get Bliar back. That really would rub the fat bastard’s nose in it.
Yeah its surreal, the whole of Labour want him to go but i think Brown is deliberately deciding he aint budging hence all the papers and ministers leaking stuff, theres a covert plan to get him out here. I just think Brown has been told to go but has said privately “if i you try to get rid of me, i’ll make it all a living hell for you” its what Brown is. I honestly think there are two ways this could go, Brown could lose the votes in the next few days on gurkhas and mp expenses making it untenable for him or Brown will be ousted the day after the euro elections as it gives Labour a clear shot to say, you are an electoral disaster and you must state you will resign at the election, call a leadership election immediately, stay on as caretakeruntil the GE in October.
Please, please, please stop writing
loose,
the word is
lose.
Which the Conservatives are very accustomed to and will do again soon.
Tra laa!
Thank you Ambrose.
think of “these knickers are loose – I hope I don’t lose them”.
It may assist.
Edyukayshun, Edyukayshun, Edyukashun. You Fuckwit.
No Ambrose its ‘NOOSE’ and then attach to lamp post
Ambrose and Anon. Fuckwit’s
Up yours Roberto.
By the way Roberto – why does fuckwit’s need an apostrophe? It’s a simple plural
/Ambrose S!lk
Ambrose, you are right, the word is “lose” which Labour most certainly will do when Brown has to call an election.
However, your sign off “Tra laa!” makes you sound a lot like Mr Humphreys of “Are You Being Served” fame. In other words, you sound a lot like a lisping puff with one hand on permanently placed on your hip? I have this vision of you mincing around inanely shouting “Tra laa, Tra laa!”
Now be a good boy, stop being so pedantic; go away and have a wank.
“Fuckwit’s” meaning Ambrose and Anon belong to Fuckwit (Brown).
Of course by the time Gordon gets to actually see the petition it will say “We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to resign himself to ten more years of power, signed by a grateful nation”
Gordon seems to be under the very misguided apprehension that we are here for his benefit.
We are. All of his benefits will henceforth be diverted back to us, the taxpayers
No, no, NO. No more Brown, Blair, or any of the apprentice McFools.
Be done with them.
Election or bust.
An afternoon’s rumination has me thinking that a deal may have been struck wth Cameron, offering the resignation of G Brown for the hinted medical reaosns, in exchange for a last few weeks of dignity for the shambling heap of ineptitude at the despatch box.
well he buggered that one up right away With an atteMpt to leg it from the HofC
Quite so – he was thrown the rope, but in confusion slipped it round his neck.
But nothing by the BBC!!! Part of their impartiatlity one must assume.

Petition for Brown to go now number 1!
Where’ve you been? Any news yet on who won the marathon?
Pheidippides?
Is he still alive?
I see the current days of this Labour government as the last hours of the Titanic, and the last person to realise is the Captain! Whilst David Milliband and Jack Straw are vying for the leadership as they know this will give them job security for the next 10 years in opposition as is Ed Balls who has his eye on the shadow chacellor roll ( although someone suggested home secertary)
Gordon Brown could come up smelling of roses through all this and end up the new CEO of the IMF…….just a thought!
God help us all. He can’t add up. Why does he think he has even the basic credentials for the job? He didn’t even get elected into the job he holds now and he has no social skills either. A total loser.
Perry In case he might get arrested for war crimes Blair needs the diplomatic immunity cover being a piece ‘envoy’ gives him
Bollocks ‘Peace’ envoy
I would think that would be a good bet, after all Blair was appointed Peace Envoy for the Middle East.
Yeah. That was a good one. Start the war, and when you decide to leave office, make yourself a Peace Envoy to sort it all out. Genuis.
A sort of Global job Creation scheme. Very Nu Labour
Bankrupt the country, join the IMF to tell Cameron where he’s going wrong. You couldn’t make it up.
I think you’ve cracked it Shellingout.
Tony Bliar starts a war then [I still can't believe it!] is appointed peace envoy to the Middle East.
So it would be entirely appropriate then for the monocular bogey eater to take over the running of the IMF as the world’s biggest crash happened on his watch.
We’re just here to vote them in at elections, and to pick up the tab for everything they do. We are of no other use to the people in government than that.
Fortunately this time the Unsinkable Molly Brown is going down with the Titanic, she aint getting on a lifeboat this time, Cameron needs to stick a few more rocks in the lifejacket to make sure Brown stays underwater.
Do you think Dolly’s services will be required – in the psycological sense, of course.
The image of Cameron getting his rocks off on Brown is not a pleasing one.
THE SINKABLE MOLLY BROWN
CAPTAIN OF HMS LABOUR
Brown and unsinkable? Give it an extra flush. That usually shifts it.
Govt. lost vote on Gurkhas
Good!
Great news Now lets see how the intend to squirm their way out of this cos sure as eggs is eggs that’s what they will try & do. They have no shame
Government loses Gurkha Vote
GOV’T LOSES GURKHA DEBATE!
Brilliant!
Firstly for the Gurkhas and secondly five bellies will be sacrificed – which will help McLoon for all of 30 seconds.
hahahahahahahaha
Browns authority is shot to pices and if he loses it again tomorow night, it may well be the end.
What’s the odds that he withdraws the motion on expenses ?
According to earlier reports this week he already has??
Gordon Brown is never going to resign.
When Labour lose the next general election in an historic Conservative landslide, Labour are bumped into third place with under 150 seats in the House of Commons, the trade unions remove support for Labour and the party is declared bankrupt amidst record debts for a political party, he will still not resign as party leader.
He will not leave Downing Street until the building is gassed and he and his family are carried out and put under house arrest at their home in Scotland. He will then begin legal proceedings to evict the Cameron’s from their new home.
He will refuse to resign as Labour Party leader declaring “it is no time for a novice” and still not one of their cowardly shitty MPs will stand against him for fear of him slipping his police guard and turning up at their house to fuck them and their family over.
Most Labour members, MPs and Lords will defect to either the Lib Dems and a new party called Lifeboat Labour.
Eventually Gordon Brown will be left as the party leader of Labour, a party with a few hundred mentally ill members, one MP who is unable to attend the House of Commons due to legal restraint and over twenty million pounds worth of debt which Gordon Brown is now personally liable for.
In the US the Free Republic red neck site with a similar collection of faux macho bull artisits used to do this sort of thing in support of the Republicans, often prompted by Rush Limbaugh.
Where are they now?
Really tough days ahead, no time for lightweights like David Carry on and George (ere stop messin about) Osbborne.
Tra laa!
Ambrose, make sure there is a revolver with one round in the chamber left in McFibbers office when you leave tonight.
I love the smell of socialist fear’N'despair Mr Slik!
Come on!
David Carry on
George (ere stop messin about) Osborne
Great stuff!
Tra laa!
Did someone say Carry On PM? Please support my petition.
It’s good of you to add to our pleasure and satisfaction in this way Ambrose.
We feel your pain and are always here to listen. Never forget that.
It’s the right thing to do.
It now becomes clear ,a pincher movement from Clegg and Brown has led to a government defeat in the house. This is leading towards a vote of no confidence at some point in the future. It may have been a boring PMQ’s today but by God it was an effective one.
Pincer or pincher – although I agree a pincher movement sounds more fun.
well with Clegg involved you never know lol
I sink ve have been undone by a sphincter movement caused by ze nasty enemies on both fronts. Ze XIIIVth Panzer division is in Tesco Express now bringing more Pampers, I mean reinforcements.
Calls in the house Brown AND Smith to resign .
Goodbye and shut the door behind you. And return our money.
will have to set out new settlement for gurkhas. Majority of 21 against govt.
267 v 246.
Sky said Clegg powerful.
Some called resign aimed at Smith, according to Sky.
shud of course read FOR Smith and Brown to resign
its all over Brown is a dead man walking, once you lose embarrassing votes like this, your authority will dwindle.
ditto! :)
Have a cyberpint sir – you deserve it.
Now if McLoon will just decompose away in the Christopher Lee style this p.m. we’ll all have a small Vimto!
Anyone seen the missing Dolly?
The Penguin
Bet Hysterical Harperson signed it she’ s gagging for his job!! Be afraid be very afraid never thought I’d want phony Tony back he seems almost benign compared to Commrade Brown wish he’d take the hint and fuck offski
I wouldn’t wish for Blair back, but Simon Heffer used to write in his column about the ‘Brown Terror’. I used to think ‘Oh come on, after Blair, how bad could it be?’ Sorry for doubting, Mr Heffer.
Same is true for labour in 97 – they basically got in because the voters thought nothing could be worse than the tories. They were wrong.
We was wasn’t we
I see a petition missing…
“that the holder of his position must under go regular mental health checks, regardless of how the holder feels”
This would be for the safety of both the position holder and the nation as a whole. The results will of course be confidential, but should there be a problem then the holder must be removed from their position.
I’ve searched the petition site and nothing covers it. I would do it myself, but I’m one of Gordon’s unemployed (and chicken shit) and don’t need so lefty prospective employer picking-up on it.
Fizz pop froth,
So excited again, wipe your moths and calm down.
The opposition are free to call for a vote of no confidence whenever they want to.
Tra laa!
You’re dead in the water.
“So excited again, wipe your moths and calm down”
If we don’t have Moths is it allowed to use butterflies instead or in Nu Lablors case cockroaches?
Is that the fizz, pop, and froth we pay for, Ambrose?
Speaking of which it looks like the PM is to be moth-balled shortly, Ambrose.
Do you mean mouth-balled TT?
You’ve got to be dislexic as well
Ambrose is hoping for a good reference when it all goes pear shaped.
Maybe Master Baiter and Tom Millar can give him one!!!
He can dream I suppose.
“some lefty! not “so”
Cameron and Clegg have won Gurhkas vote – ahahhahhahah
On behalf of Tuscan Lard Arse please not your misspelling of Gurkha (or Gorkha or Ghurka).
Try and be philosophical about it.
MB – is that you, Hitch?
YES!!!!!
Fuck you Gordon, you deserve that for your woeful performance at PMQs earlier. These people were prepared to DIE for our country and all you could do was avoid the question.
RESIGN NOW, THE COUNTRY HAS NO CONFIDENCE IN YOU
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/8023882.stm
There are 26,500 former Gurkhas receiving a Ministry of Defence pension in Nepal.
If there are in addition four members of family for each that’s up to 110,000, or around the entire population of Salisbury.
Probably not all of them would want to come though, but who knows?
Not only that who cares if they all want to come. They sure as hell have more right to come here than most of immigrants who do
There are one million empty dwellinghouses in the UK, mostly in public ownership; and McBroon is encouraging the building of more due to a “shortage”. Just a thought but is it just me or is there something odd about the UK at the moment?
I think we are at this point of the Titanic movie:
Despite warnings (IMF , EU and just about everyone else) The SS Zanulabour continues at top speed (borrowing dosh) hits the iceberg (Bank meltdown) and begins to sink lower in the water ( debt, Savings and house prices). The pumps are started (Quantitive easing) but they just cannot keep up and the ship goes lower (Run on the pound)
People are running around screaming there are only boats for the few on the upper decks ( Bank Bail outs) meanwhile those is steerage are left ( The rest of the poulation)
One runs up to the captain and says ‘Help me! helpme! what do we do? I can’t get into a boat (I am going to lose my seat)’
The captain (McBust) looks looks down apon her face ( Hazel Blears ) but is dazed and stunned, not comprehending the total disaster ( IMF , Trillions in debt) that has now befallen him and his ship (UK).
Distress rockets are fired but the nearest ship (mv IMF) fails to respond. The radio officers remain at their posts sending out messages for help but no one answers (EU)
Saying nothing (PM Questions) he slowly walks inside the bridge ( Leaves HofC before making a statement) closes the door there to finally drown as the Tsunami of water bursts in. ( Petitions and polls and other leaders taking the mick)
I therefore suggest the No 10 plod at the front door keeps a very close eye on the No 10 doorstep to ensure that there is no sudden flow of water from underneath the door. Given the famous quote for the movie ‘Raising the Titanic’ where someone said that given the amount of money spent to make the movie it probably would have been cheaper to drain the fucking Atlantic.
One feels they really did have McBust in mind at the time.
Dolly’s got a lifebelt.
It was Lew Grade
Interesting comparison ANO but on a technical note it is suggested on fairly comprehensive engineering grounds that had the Titanic simply hit the iceberg head on then it would have survived (as other ships at the time did).
The bows were strong enough to take the force and some of the front watertight compartments would have worked as intended and stopped the rush of water into the rest of the ship.
The problem was that in the panic upon seeing the iceberg immediately ahead (poor admin meant that the Watch that night had no access to binoculars so it was only spotted at the last minute) the captain, succumbing to natural reflex, ordered the ship be steered away.
The ship was slammed into reverse too but it was going at full speed, despite the known presence of icebergs, because it was trying to hit a target.
These actions led to the graze with the iceberg which popped umpteen rivets and caused a fatal number of the watertight compartments to fail.
Oh and the rivets? Well they were not “top grade” so as to save some money, but, er, they looked ok didn’t they?
So, a combination of poor construction, poor management, corporate dogma and too much knee jerk reaction rather than thinking things through did indeed sink the Titanic (or was it ZaNuLab?). So good parallels.
Sad to think that even given a disasterous set of circumstances a “Do Nothing” captain would actually have fared better…
PS No disrespect intended (except to ZNL).
Max
You are correct.
The design you refer to is a ‘collison bulkhead’ Very much like cars having a impact zone. It may have well have delayed the sinking to allow people to survive but no one can really say. By changing course this bypassed this bulkhead and damaged the compartments behind. These flooded on by one as the water passed over the top of them one by one. Since that time an uppermost continuous deck now prevents this in most designs but not all.
Steel work was of poor grade and due to freezing temperatures also became brittle but I do not give this all the credence some do but yet no doubt combined to make the final effect.
It is worth noting though what Titanic did bring us all even today.
1) From that disaster came SOLAS regulations stating what lifesaving equipment was required on all vessels.
2) Vessel design changed dramatically to avoid repercussion (not always of course)
3) everyone gets a lifejacket lifeboat / liferaft
4) Airlines from an early evolutionary stage adopted similar measures to the maritime industry.
As a good pub quiz question the original distress signal used at sea was ‘CQD’ (Come quick distress) Titanic was the first known vessel to use the new code SOS in morse in an actual distress situation.
The 1500 did not die in vain and their legacy can be seen today on every ship, barge, boat and oil rig in the world.
Ok Boring, sorry to be O/T and probaly a load of crap to most but its good that people are aware of where these things do originate and why? It makes good questions at pub quizzes as well if you are so inclined.
Nice reg article:
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/04/29/brown_petition/
Good afternoon Gordon. We’re still waiting.
Mr Fawkes – love the comment on the No 10 petition site about your rejected one…http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/justgonow/
“Petition Rejected
This petition has been rejected because:
* It contained party political material
Additional information about this rejection:
This has been rejected on the grounds of including Party political material. It also relates to an ongoing criminal investigation.”
Which one is that then?
“Wonder if Tom Watson, the Minister for Mudslinging and Digital Engagement, has had to duck a Nokia today?”
Shurely a Blackberry would be more web 2.0…
One of the original mobile phones would definetly have more clout though.
This, my fellow bloggers will turn into a battle for proper information. As of this date and time, there is absolutely no mention of the e-petition on the BBC. Proof…If ever you needed it, of how deep the arm of government extends out over this despicable organisation. What is left? ITV, Channel 4, 5 & Sky primarily for most people.
29,053 signatures online is still a long way from the information finding it’s ultimate home. The sheeple that .gov depend on.
I seldom read the tabloids. Could somebody confirm if they, have in fact printed any article relating to this?
Cheers everyone. I raise a glass tonight.
Err…go to bbc.co.uk, type “petition” in the top search box and follow the first link.
Fine if you know what you’re looking for. Useless if you’re Joe Tellytaxpayer trying to find out what’s going on in the world. The BBC really is the Broadcast Wing of the Labour Party.
I think every tabloid has covered it now, which just emphasizes how much effort must have gone into suppressing signatures.
There was a mention here, but it’s only as an example of ‘do petitions do anything?’
http://search.bbc.co.uk/click/p/1/ds/main/t/Has%2520a%2520petition%2520ever%2520actually%2520changed%2520anything%253f/id/17231391429091241023139460161250000/sp/8ad8e37affa800ab694c70bc5c5f3c68/-/http%253a%252f%252fwww%252ebbc%252eco%252euk%252fblogs%252fpm%252f2009%252f04%252fhas%255fa%255fpetition%255fever%255factually%255fc%252eshtml
Do a search on news.bbc.co.uk and the results are interesting to say the least. The resign petition now has around 29,200 signatures with no ‘real’ mention by Aunty Beeb. Compare and contrast to these ‘petition’ searches from their news site on ‘news stories’ they DID deem worthy…
Limit take away restaurants at 250 sigs
Petition over creche closure 250 sigs
Save historical centre <200 sigs
Libraries petition ‘hundreds’
I’m not saying the above weren’t important, it’s just a rather clear indication of the Beebs slanted reporting.
Put a complaint into the phuckers and ask why they are sat on their arses whilst the largest Viral coup is in progress :)
I’ve complained to the Beeb before, I suspect it was speed read and binned. Certainly didn’t get anything back from them.
On the 7am Toady News on Radio 4 Monday 27th April I promise you the Petition was indeed mentioned as having swelled in numbers over the weekend. By the 8am news slot it was dropped. We have people on the inside I suspect and need to give credit where it is due.
Remember World War 2? It is now our turn to play Beethoven’s Fifth to the Resistance within the BBC! “Vive les Allies! Et Fini la guerre!”
Has anyone else noticed that the new Toenails blog post doesn’t appear when you click on the link?
Takes me straight to Poland coverage from both BBC homepage, RSS and his blog homepage.
How useless – unless of course it is just me who has been censored!
I made a mistake. I meant to say the e-petition concerning Brown.
Is this the FIRST VIRAL COUP in history ???
Guido can you produces badges with “I Played My Part In Removing that Bong-Eyed Koont” :)
I’d buy one… They would be a collectors item
Guido does merchandise Here. We just could never wear such stuff in public before. Hats and masks on the way, Guido a la V?
Me too, and take a walk down near “Drowning St”
And his “support the PM” petition has reached the dizzying heights of 15 (3 up from yesterday), and 2 of those new ones are jokes:
LABOUR ALWAYS FAILS
Hugh Mustbejoking
How gratifying it is to see the “resign” petition now at the top slot, and the “we support you” petition on the bottom of the whole heap.
He can’t last much longer, not with the loss of the vote on the gurkhas; as soon as he pulls (or gets defeated on) the entire expenses raft of votes, that’ll be seen as the final vote of no confidence against him.
He’s now seen and openly described as an insane joke/clown even by all the MPs in his own party.
I hereby predict that by this weekend wanker Brown will no longer be PM, Harman will be acting PM and become leader of labour, and an election will be called immediately, and labour will come 3rd.
3rd?
Thats a bit optomistic isn’t it
333 is that a Damian McBride lite?
30,057!!!
I am ecstatic about how the petition has progressed. This will just keep growing.
Gordon really cannot last.
Losing the Gurkha vote.
The expense fiasco.
The economic brownturn.
The list goes on.
No wonder Labour Homes want shot of him.
30,057 :-)
1 minute 50. Clearly GB does watch his petitions carefully, wonder if he remembers this?
Even the BBC with help from Nick Robinson’s pro-gordon words can’t save him now.
According to Nick Robinson, Brown’s fine, it’s just that he’s being badly advised at the moment now that McBride’s gone, but no harm done, because everyone loves Gordon really and he’s actually quite clever, and the gurkha vote failure had nothing to do with Brown, it was just a one-off blip/quirk.
Brown’s screwed. BBC to follow soon afterwards I hope.
Brown’s not going to last past the weekend in number 10. Sadly, the BBC will last a little longer.
Imagine what’ll happen to the ftse (and sterling) when he quits and there’s an election announced; I reckon it’ll be the biggest daily increase we’ve ever seen.
ooh, labour are so totally and wonderfully fucked, and I’m looking forward to the next few days with so much glee that I think I’ve just made a nasty gooey mess in my trousers.
I don’t like to worry anyone but there is an awful smell of rotting
haggis hanging over Westminster!
As my old Welsh Nationalist friend, Hugh Givesafuck used to say; who gives a fuck?
Brown’s a clown, but you tory window-lickers are pure dead loopy…
Fucking delicious!
Hello Dolly
You should not knock window licking until you have tried it
There’s another Gordon Brown petition on the number 10 web sit asking him to take a pay cut to £30k – only 9 signatures at present
£30k, eee, unemployment benefits shot up since ah were a lad.
If you are a digger, go to http://digg.com and digg all the stories that mention the petition, as we have not been on the digg front page yet. This would add a few more 10,000s for us.
Wasn’t a digger, did some digging, consider it dug.
Grand work Kalvis.
If you are the real Kalvin Jansons, then you may very well go down in history, and possibly become the most popular person on the planet fairly soon.
I tip my hat to you.
kalvis, even, rather than kalvin (see what happens when you can’t edit your posts; how annoying is that?)
As pointed out the name is Kalvis Jansons, and I am the real one. Thank you for your comments.
Most of my random thoughts are on
http://cambridge.kalvis.com
You asked on a previous thread about phase ii, had a few thoughts (but it is your baby).
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00jz2jr was quite interesting. You could do with knowing when it was recorded and who the interviewee he hyped at the end is. If it isn’t you, knowing who it is and the stats of his/her petition is useful (and a potential target to beat ahead of broadcast next Wednesday night)
http://www.vnunet.com/computing/news/2193976/brown-praises-online-petitions
Given “Brown is believed to favour a threshold for the number of signatories above which a debate will be mandatory.” you could do with help from politicos finding historic embellishments from that, AND A POLITICAN to get his magic number on record. I don’t see how the ‘Honourable’ Member can escape the box of giving us a target. Given that recent political demonstration has resulted in death, a civilised methodology is not an unreasonable ask.
http://twitter.com/davidjstringer tweeted about 4oclock “Brown’s spokesman says Gordon Brown won’t heed e-petition calling for him to quit “He’s focused on the big economic challenges” he says” so would go at Finacials -pink pages and Finacial diary’s – if his justification for staying is economic you need city.
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/04/24/brown_epetition/, these guys backed you early, they could do with some gratitude, and probably better placed to come up with a count linked widget for blogs…
Street based political marketing all has to be imprinted (printed/published by..) to have someone culpable for slanders fly posting etc. As its not political (petition wouldn’t be allowed otherwise… Is worth finding out who is culpable should a load of stickers with outline and web address start appearing
Finally THANKYOU
Done it !
Just to balance things out a bit, there are currently 67 citizens wishing McBroon to stay…
67? Yes, 67. Well I’ll go to the bottom of our stairs. Who would have believed it possible?
Stage 1 was getting the “Go Please” petition at number 1 at Number 10.
Many are asking what the Stage 2 target should be. I like nice simple targets that mean something rather than just round numbers like 1000,000. So the mathematicians think the next natural target is to be the biggest petition on Number 10 of all time. That is a long way off, but a week ago the same could have been said of being number 1.
Let’s go for it!
Now the numbers seem sadly depeleted compared to yesterdays buoyant 20,000+!
It is getting hard to find things in this thread, so I have made a google group just for Stage 2 of number 1 at Number 10:
http://groups.google.co.uk/group/number-1-at-number-10
The fun is just starting!
There is now a short URL:
http://10.kalvis.com
From the Mail, just to cheer you all up:
Three Labour MPs are said to be terrified that the release of their expenses claims will expose them as adulterers and financial cheats.
Four ministers are also understood to have warned party whips they might have to resign for abusing the system, when MPs’ receipts are published before the summer recess in July.
The three unnamed backbenchers are said to have been placed on ’suicide watch’ by Labour whips, who fear they might break down when the details of their excesses come out.
Two are understood to have had extra-marital affairs with other members of Parliament.
Not only are they believed to have shared hotel rooms during annual conference get-togethers and party away days but also to have double-claimed for the rooms on their expenses.
If both MPs have claimed for the bill they will be branded frauds as well as love cheats when journalists and freedom of information campaigners sift through their receipts.
The third backbencher is said to have made ‘grotesque’ financial claims.
Jail them, now.
Oh, I forgot, the police are not interested in this sort of thing.
There is also another petition lauding the great man: :)
In his own opinion we have never had a better and more competent Prime Minister, and he should have maximum support to continue.

Weird thing – the total number of signatures on the petition just DROPPED. From 32,333 to 32,330. WTF?
Check out this “anti” petition:
http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/whygorden/
I wonder why it only has 4 supporters….
That petition should have been rejected; the petitions are not allowed to be party political. It shows how utterly desperate Brown is by allowing an openly party-political petition in his favour while killing off any others that even have a hint of anti-labour comments.
Guido
Did you know that there is a spoof counter petition calling for support for the PM to remain in office created here:
petitions.number10.gov.uk/PMsupport/
It had attracted over 70 signatures most of them bogus. The No 10 team are a sharp bunch of cookies though and spotted those and deleted them leaving just 14. However, I don’t think that they actually worked out that the whole thing is a spoof. Even though the details section from the petitioner states:
“In his own opinion we have never had a better and more competent Prime Minister, and he should have maximum support to continue.”
What a larf. Here are the names that the No 10 team seem to think are still real:
andrew brooks
Harry Roberts
R.Suppards
D O LeScum
Entu Boomanbus
Andrew Neil
Albert Tatlock
Eric Pickles
john allen
Helen Farmer
Jenny Talia
Jo King
Nosmo King
At a rough guess only 3 or 4 of those could even remotely be considered real. I guess they don’t get out much at No 10.
I got my comment removed by Guido for listing all 70 names.
Why was that, Guido?
Oh, I see its back again! It must be this browser. Or something.
What times are the various expenses votes due? I’ll put it on a countdown clock on my laptop to signify the number of minutes that Brown has remaining as PM before the running-scared labour ministers throw him out the number 10 window.
Imagine, our first weekend for 12 years without a mad idiot in charge of the money/country; glory be, wondrous times ahead.
ah, I see; there is no vote; even the latest diluted one has been pulled. Now they just get to vote on “shall we have a review?”
cool.
if you think you’ll lose the vote, then don’t have a vote.
nice to see democracy in action
it can’t go on like this; Parliament itself is dead in the water with this lunatic leader/party in power.
I can’t remember a situation like this; I think we’re in a new realm we’ve never encountered before where not just the leader but the whole government is seen by almost everyone in the country as totally insane
Up to 34,000 now at 2:30pm 30 April. Here’s still hoping for the magic million at least.
40,855 at 18.05 on 1st May. I think many more will sign this weekend after seeing the disturbing antics of a floundering lunatic on YT.
47,000 + at 23:30 1st May.
Keep it going !!!
Shit sorry, getting ahead of myself 42,000 +
[...] was another PR disaster. Some 40,000 + people suggested to Gordon Brown that he should rsign. As Guido put it…“When the digital engagement team in Downing Street came up with this wheeze they didn’t [...]
