Fight Poverty, Buy Derek’s Book in Oxfam
Guido is getting worried that we have heard nothing from Dolly for some time. His Twitter no longer tweets and his belligerent banter has burned out. His Life Support book is on offer for £2.99 in Oxfam. It was only a month ago that he was hosting the book’s glittering launch party attended by the likes of the powerful Damian McBride and glamorous Kate Garraway, host of TV’s “The Biggest Loser”.
Please buy his book, Guido is getting worried.
Picture taken yesterday in the Oxfam bookshop on Strutton Ground, Westminster by the Stray Taoist.
First
Its getting EXCELLENT reviews:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/product-reviews/1848500440/ref=dp_top_cm_cr_acr_txt?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=1
Oh Dolly you’re so fine, you’re so fine you blow my mind! Oh Dolly! Oh Dolly!
Those reviews on Amazon are priceless.
HAHA!
“What kind of soul do you have Mr Draper?
To have a soul is to have feeling. What kind of soul smears people who are trying to go about daily living? Trashing someone’s ego in public is soul destroying. It is an action of malice and hate. It is a soulless person who intends to hurt people in such a way. “
So not the kind of soul that has an ‘R’ in front of it then?
I think a compilation of the “revues” on Amazon would make an excellent and profitable book.
come on Guido, this is not very interesting, ‘coz Dolly is dead, so put up something else.
As we say…
“Shift Target To next Ahead”
Don’t worry Dolly, you can always write a follow up – ‘Income Support’ would be a good title.
Pigs in space said: Don’t worry Dolly, you can always write a follow up – ‘Income Support’ would be a good title.
_____________
Well his lot scrapped it. So he has to find himself a job and his sorry excuse for a political pamphlet masquerading as a book, is not going to save him from being a “job seeker”.
yes michael, you are first. a first class spastic.
good work!
What no story about the conservative councillor convicted of election fraud? Come on guido root out the corruption!!
Hypocrite
haha, 2.99, way too much,should be in the 10p bin in bargain books.
Gawd I feel so sorry for Kate cos She seems a nice girl poor cow
imagine how her front door must feel knowing that the spawn of draper is passing though it
Lots of people feel sorry for Kate too, here. That poor girl
Oxfam always charge too much for used books
They sure do. Greedy communist fuckers.
Guido should offer a pint of Guiness to the first person who catches it in Poundland
The price has even been reduced on Amazon!
I thought Kate was up the duff – so has she lost or gained at the hands -and o ther bits – of the master?
I don’t suppose she noticed a thing.
Buy it, I wouldn’t accept his drivel if it were offered as a raffle prize!
£2.99? Andrex is a lot cheaper.
Kate – host of the biggest loser, whats changed, she does that at home on a daily basis.
Poor, poor Kate Garraway. The press – well, the girly press – are worried about her.
And no wonder; imagine how she feels.
The nausea; the sweaty embarrassment; the knowledge that a helpless mewling creature is going to be totally dependent on you; the sleepless nights; the feeling that your time will never be your own again, that something will always be clinging to you, needing its next meal.
And, of course, she’s pregnant too.
“A survival guide for the modern soul” – oh PLEASE! Someone should send him “A suicide guide for the modern sod”. What a truly ghastly little man.
great comment
A egocentric, thick, scuffy, talentless northern Git
Cheaper than bog paper but not as useful.
And it leaves a smear!
I’d rather wipe my arse with a broken bottle, than let anything that that KUNNTTT has produced anywhere near me.
What’s happened to him anyway? Is he stilll editing Labourlist? Politics was a lot more entertaining when he was gracing our discourse.
Guido!
Next your be looking forward to his next book!
Bouncing back!!!!!! (thinking Alan Partridge :O)
Hmmm, Strutton Ground…home of a superb chippy! Queues round the corner on a Friday lunchtime, mind you.
Ah yes, the Laughing Halibut, fabulous place.
Just the plaice.
Oh Cod!
Oh crab! Hold on while I fetch my herring aid.
Good shoe shop too – bought my Dr Martins there for the last 20 years
Cobblers.
I’m pissing crystals
No srsly.
I’m buying crack in brixton and pissing crystals, and spraypaint.
Marigolds, on, piss a blobbber.
A book which will appeal to all our soles.
or indeed arseholes
SIXTEENTH.
Fuck it some Huhne got in first. Im having 19th post okay.
Well done you!!!
Shall we just leave Draper alone for a while? May be he could use the silence to go and get some (qualified) psychiatric help for himself, or write another best-seller.
I liked Piers Morgan’s quote (and I never thought those words would occur to me), when he heard that Draper was engaged and about to marry. Morgan asked his source who the groom was, and when told apparently replied “Derek bloody Draper? If I’d known the bar was set so low I might have had a go myself!”. Too true. Poor KG.
Her best friends can’t be much: you’d have thought they would have warned her
I think with poor Kate that somebody really needs to have said to her “Should have gone to Specsavers”.
Looks like you missed 16=, no more than two at a time please.
It’s a jolly good read.
I see Amazon have also slashed their asking price.
Not many are selling I take it?
In a market saturated with self help books why would anyone ever pick up Derek’s and think ‘I’ll have a bit of that’.
“I take full responsibility, that’s why I sacked the person responsible”
Have I missed something did Broown sack himself then?
errrrrrrrrrrr NO!
Alright Guido. Kicking someone who can fight back is funny. Kicking someone you have previously left bleeding in the gutter though is just unseemly. The guys a cock. You flattened him. No need to go on.
Agreed, don’t kick him any more. He’s down.
Go for the other hoons now!
Wrong, when you bayonet someone they may not die, you have to twist it round and pull their guts out. Then you can be sure the fucker’s dead. Show me your war face, maggot!
In a word, bollocks.
Whilst he draws breath he is a legitimate target for the crimes against democracy he has wilfully been involved in.
His continued public humiliation should carry on unabated as a lesson to all other wannabe lap dogs of un-mandated politicians.
Guido, carry on tearing chunks off this miscreant so he can never, ever re-emerge or re-invent himself in the public domain.
And, he asked for the war. He got what he deserved.
Conan, what is best in life?
Sure, he’s down now, but who’s to say that if we stop kicking him, he might not get back up?
Continual kicking may not be gentlemanly, but it’s the right thing to do.
Conan, what is best in life?,/i>
Something about shagging your enemy’s missus up the wrong ‘un and hearing her linoleum isn’t it?
Kick until it moves no longer, then kick some more, scum of the earth deserve no less.
Disagree, he can go on labourlost and defend himself and tell the whole world what a bunch of hoons we are here….Oh, wait, I see the flaw in that argument !
Any chance of going after that hoon Liam Byrne?
Its a bit like alien.
Just when you think you have got the motherfucker once and for all up it pops again snotting slime and dribble everwhere slurping all over the place leaving greasy deposits behind it.
Anyway I digress enough about Gordon Brown what about this Draper hoon?
The best way to ensure that DD does not arise again is to kill the collectivist ideology he used to beat others over the head. Although having watched QT last night the appeal of taxation for the morons in the audience was breathtaking – let’s hope this was a special selection of retards addicted to the idea of other people’s money, or too stupid to know when they are being robbed themselves.
Fuck me, poor Kate, sandwiched by Dolly and McPoison, that looks like the spit roast from hell.
I feel sorry for poor Kate, she’s having a hard time I expect. Especially when she has Dolly hiding in the airing cuopboard!
Kate seems content to associate with some deeply unpleasant people.
Saint she ain’t.
correct remember who the other female on the sofa was recently departed. Thats when she was not sitting in the front row of Labour conferences doing bambi impressions at McFuckedit
Even with the amazing free publicity of this website Drapers drivel is still in the bargain basement bins of all good charidee shops.
That is absolutely brilliant.
“Guido is getting worried that we have heard nothing from Dolly for some time. ”
You could always start writing about politics instead.
Looks like poor old Kate is having a bit of a ‘Rosemary’s Baby’ time of it. carrying the spawn of
AntonDolly must take it’s toll.Daily Mail article – some of the comments are pretty funny
If I was married, G-d forbid, to Mr Draper, I’d feel rough and sick, morning, noon and night.
I would think that being married to Derek Draper is likely to take far more of a toll than any pregnancy ever could!
Christ, she’s starting to look like dolly in the Mail photo.
Lying very low then
and he said he would take a week to reflect
Longest week I’ve ever known, but then I suppose Gordon can sympathise
Me too Guido me too. Your concern does you much credit….!
Missed this one…. Dolly opens up about relationships on the Daily Mail.

What a knob jockey
Maybe he’s back in rehab somewhere.
Has anybody spotted the scruffy fat lying fuck anywhere?? is he seriously holed up at home??
not that im arsed you understand just mildly curious…
He’s quivering while waiting for the outcome of the inquiry into his professional behaviour from BCASS (or whatever they call themsevles)
Keep watching this page

Thanks for that link Sir Michael Whitewash – it’ll be interesting to see what happens. Will there be pressure from Labour HQ to bury the matter? In which case, BACP membership is not to be relied upon if needing a counsellor.
Is his PC still on holiday. It left in a taxi but hasen’t come back yet?
“Has anybody spotted the scruffy fat lying fuck anywhere?”
Sir Edmund, he was last seen answering PMQs
thank you old bean, well spotted.. although i now realise my initial description was rather vague and could apply to the majority of the labour front bench… even the blokes..
prehaps he has had a wash i we dont regonize him anymore ?
Modern-day Judases like Draper and McBride seek to destroy the reputations of others in order to enhance their own faceless careers.
We all know what happened to Judas…
Greatly maligned historical character, Judas, & probably the victim of countless McBrides & Drapers in the Christian Church throughout the ages who saw him as the perfect patsy.
Last time I saw Judas was in the pit of he’ll where he was coming out of Satan’s arse.
How odd that Dante should comment about me and the first three digits to my name/number appear
I know some Thames mudlarks, I’ll ask them to keep a look out for any ‘floaters’ shall I?
Poor Dolly
He goes from “Would you like lies with that Sir” to
“Would you like fries with that Sir?”

HOON
Come, Kate, we’ll to bed.
Fuck off, Del. You’re off your head.

Hasn’t Dolly become a rent boy?
He hasn’t paid me, think I will pay him visit
You’d have to have a word with the agency if they sent that piss stained tramp over.
calling him Guidoaf Orcs is just right.
Heel boy!
I think Derek might be lined up for a new job with Labour.
http://thatsnews.blogspot.com/2009/04/oops-cheats-never-prosper-labour-mps.html
I mean, it would make sense, wouldn’t it? Allowing him to use his cough! ‘qualifications’ to help the party in its hour of need…
Just as Kate thought it safe to get back into the sea,two ugly turds attach themselves to her ample and fragrant self.
Absolutely totally bloody brilliant Guido
£2.99? Oxfam suddenly thinks it’s Harrods?
Oxfam is a wing of newlabour, bought and paid for, their top shelf of parasites are newlabour supporters.
Oxfam has a top shelf section?
Thank God, W H Smith’s have banned me for… errr….. did that come out aloud?
2.99 is fucking robbery – I demand £200 /hr to read that shyte.
Unite/Whelan/Mandelson have a problem. Called Draper/Labourlist.
Unite want out. Whelan(Brown) wants out.
Draper is financially fucked. He has no psychotherapy earnings and may well be struck off. He owes money. He won’t walk from LList , he cannot afford to. He has told Unite/Whelan this.
He has also told Unite/Whelan that if he is made to go, then he may well bring down Watson/Whelan and Brown because he will spill the beans on their complicity in smear campaign.
Unite will pay Draper to keep schtum. Its called bribery/extortion. Its how NuLabour operate.
shut up
He was my protege. How can you be so unkind?
Strong, soft and thoroughly absorbent…
I’m OK for bog paper, thanks.
Has he got his computer back from PC World yet?
Nothing to see here.
Move along now.
Didn’t Gary Glitter make that mistake once?
Isn’t he due to speak at Hay literary festival this month?
Hay Festival (sponsored by the Guardian) Tuesday May 26th
[181] 7.30PM OXFAM STUDIO £5
Derek Draper talks to
Benna Waites
Life Support
The psychotherapist makes life
happier and better with his Survival
Guide For The Modern Soul. Waites is
a consultant psychologist.
Festival also features this unmissable celebration of hypocrisy:
Polly Toynbee and David Walker
Unjust Rewards
A rigorous and profoundly shocking study
Exposing Greed and Inequality in Britain Today.
Perhps some good people would go along and heckle the Shit out of them
Therapist therap thyself.
This is a must-see event. I am tempted to go and ask some very pointed questions of the nasty little hoon.
The Hay Festival is a bit of an eco-leftie lovefest, hecklers of Dolly and Pollyanna risk getting lynched.
Derek is a member of the BAPC but it doesn’t mention on his website whether or not he is “accredited” by them.
If you look for Therapists with a surname Draper on the BAPC website his name doesn’t appear -though this a voluntary part of the BAPC website.
Face book site is not available, last post on the blog 3 April. Have you gone too far Guido?
Negative. You reap what you sow. Kate walking out is next…
Unfortunately for Derek – yes. Those who live by the sword must be prepared to die by it too. He didn’t care who he hurt or how much – now he’s getting it back in spades. A few apologies all round & a refusal to do McBride/Brown’s bidding instead of naked agression, accusions all round – Dale, Alex Hilton, Guido & threats of lawyers & he could have perhaps made something of LabourLost. I think too he’ll find that threatening Dale, Alex Hilton & Guido is a different kettle of fish to threatening Brown’s bullyboys. ‘Fatal accident’ or ‘suicide’ in the near future I wouldn’t be surprised.
Guido, what is best in life?
he knows he’s an ugly disposable lick-spittle.
A khukuri
Another little white lie. Take a look at this:
http://www.flowvideo.co.uk/who.html
He claims to be “Psychotherapist and former spindoctor, writer and
communications consultant to companies including Glaxo-Welcome,
Unilever, Goldman Sachs, British Gas and Abbey National.”

NATIONAL HOUSING FEDERATION CONFERENCE
20TH SEPTEMBER 2007
PR MASTERCLASS
WITH DEREK DRAPER
Thanks for introduction
I have had an unusual career path!
I did my psychotherapy training in California for 3 years and loved the change in pace and chance for a new start that gave me.
After the first few months my new best friend came into class one day and whispered, “ Gee! I was bored last night and started googling all my friends – you need to be careful.
There’s another Derek Draper back in England…and by the sounds of him he is a complete twat
Of course, not first PR practitioner to suffer bad personal PR
Indeed PR as a whole often suffers, ironically, from bad PR
As a psychotherapist who does a lot of media, I am always looking at ADVICE COLUMNS, and saw this rather relevant letter the other day:
Dear Deirdre,
I have a problem which I hope you can help me with. I am a young man of 23 years.
I have one brother who works for a large and well-known public relations firm. I have another brother who is serving his second prison term for armed burglary and arson.
My mother is pregnant by my best friend and because of this my father refuses to marry her.
My sister works the streets and hotels at night. My father lives off her earnings.
Recently I became engaged to a very lovely girl and I want to do the right thing by her and always be honest.
Should I tell her about having a brother in public relations?
I’m not going to speak for long as I think it would be better to have lots of time for a discussion
What I do want to do is offer some TOOLS AND TIPS about how you can improve your communications – and hence increase your influence – but also to make a more fundamental point about what you need to address first – what I have called the “3Rs”:
REPOSITIONING
RESOURCES
RISK
But first let me make a CONFESSION:
I read every paper most days, involved with think tanks, I have friends who are ministers and all that, I had no idea how much HAs do in the community – how much non direct-housing work you do
And the more I learned, the more I discovered it’s a great story, so no doubt need to tell it more – I am sure you agree. The question is how?
Look, 3 of the BIGGEST NEWS STORIES are: crime, elderly, family and community breakdown. You are at the heart of all that!
The whole country needs to know about initiatives like:
• Kid’s playschemes
• Retirement villages
• Apprenticeship projects and the like
Goes without saying that shouldn’t leave communications just until something goes wrong: need to be pro-active, tell +ve message
Of course that will help when things go bad!
It will also help you when it comes to protecting your more narrow interests when it comes to mergers and all that
But also important to do in its own right
Of course it’s easy to patronise and simplify – that’s an occupational hazard of the “masterclass” speaker!
I want to make absolutely clear that I recognise the great work that some of you do; the pressure you’re under and initiatives like IN business for neighbourhoods, which I think is very much along the right lines…
BUT must pick up on the conference brochure blurb about this very event: “we lack the profile we DESERVE”
Sort of do deserve it but no-one cares – life’s not that like that:
Have to work for it
Get the profile you CREATE
Here to tell you:
You could and should do more
Be excited about your work and what you do
Be proud!
I make no apologies for using emotional words like excitement and pride.
Flow Media Training, the media consultancy that I run with my wife, Kate Garraway from GMTV, has a unique approach to communications which we call M.E.T. –
It’s a scientifically proven and psychologically informed combination of three core components: Message, Emotion and Technique. When you have delivered on all three you will have “met” your audience on a deep and meaningful level.
It rests on a belief which I think is worth mentioning because it should affect the whole tone and approach of your communications:
The recent groundbreaking book “The Political Brain” by Drew Westen shows conclusively that “the political brain is an emotional brain”. That is, that voters make up their minds not deciding between competing intellectual arguments but by how the politicians making the arguments make them feel.
Echoing that, in the latest (September 2007) McKinsey Quarterly, Nokia’s senior vice-president of strategic marketing reveals: “One thing we’re trying to understand is the unconscious mind and the real reasons people buy things. That’s where the gold dust is… emotional reasons – largely connected to the unconscious – play a critical role”.
We believe that what is true of political communications and consumer marketing is true of any and all communications: human beings decide what they think of you with their gut. If your emotional message leaves them cold, then your argument won’t matter.
So you should always – when it comes to ideas, words and pictures – think: what is the emotional content and message of what I am saying.
Indeed you should be seeking to put emotional messages at the heart of your PR strategy.
But before you can implement any of these insights I think there is a more fundamental change that has to take place, and this is my main message today –
This involves what I call the 3 Rs:
REPOSITIONING
RESOURCES
AND RISK
REPOSITIONING
Need fundamental shift from being perceived as “bricks and mortar” to being seen as concerned with “people and families”
Must put the ‘social’ into social housing – demonstrate the added value that good landlords bring in areas, that are very much on the media agenda, like environmental policies; good neighbour activity; and bridging the gap between the generations and races.
RISK
Need to take risks:
I understand why some of you are hesitant:
PR is a risky business
Lots of people mouth interest in it but deep down believe its better to keep your head down and hope for the best
This is well illustrated by the old story about a public relations consultant and his client. They were walking to a meeting one day when they saw a small child being attacked by a fierce Rottweiller. Without hesitating, the client rushed forward, grabbed the dog with his bare hands and wrestled it to the ground.
After several bloody and terrifying minutes of a life and death struggle, the client managed to kill the beast and thus rescue the child. As he lay on the ground, bleeding and gasping for breath, unable to talk, a passing journalist jumped out of a car and ran over to them to ask what had happened.
“What a story!” he said when told the details. “Local hero saves child”.
“If I can just correct you there,” the public relations consultant interrupted, “I am Mr Smith’s spokesman, and I should alert you to the fact that Mr Smith is just visiting this area.”
“Well, that’s fine, too,” said the journalist. “Visitor risks life to save child. So, what does Mr Smith do?”
“As a matter of a fact,” the consultant explained, “he is the chairman of a major listed company”.
The headline next day read: “CORPORATE FAT CAT STRANGLES FAMILY PET”
Yes, journalists can have their own agendas
Yes, it can go wrong
Yes, you might wish, on occasion, you hadn’t bothered
BUT overall, you will benefit. And you will survive the odd thing that goes wrong. Especially if you have a track record of being +ve and engaged, and keep up the momentum, and don’t lose your nerve.
Example of me and KA:
• Use different magazines – Closer / New
• Practical help eg Me – Panic attacks /Anger management – You – how to deal with freezing pipes.
• Case studies – letting people speak – take risk
THINKING BIG
Part of taking risks is thinking BIG:. Here are just three random, rather crude examples, just to bring to life what I’m saying:
• Aim to get stuff in the plethora of “Real life” magazines – let some tenants become media stars if they’re so inclined – trust them to tell, overall, a +ve story
• Aim to get featured on investigative shows like “Tonight with Trevor McDonald”: Let them do a blind test on your new showhouse compared to Barratts, have the confidence you’ll come out on top!
• Go for a big spread in the Mirror or Sun: Let them come and see it when “Hoodies become mates with War veterans”
If you take risks, get pro-active you will get your fingers burned. BUT if you work hard, with good advice, and master the basics, which I’ll come onto in a minute, let’s say you manage to inspire 10 stories in a six month period
3 will be great
3 will be OK
3 will be a bit of a damp squib
1 will have backfired
Do the math – it’s worth it!
Don’t give up on the chance of those 6 stories – some great, some good, some ok, because of that one! (which, by the way, might have happened anyway).
One of the tough things about PR is that you never have to work to get bad stories, but you have to work like crazy to get a good story out. Which brings us to the 2nd R, the matter of resources.
RESOURCES
Put bluntly, I would urge you to spend more: it is an investment worth making. Try and employ a good press officer or team, and let them get on with that job rather than make them responsible for events, brochures, and making the tea!
An alternative strategy is to bring in the local PR expert, there almost always is one: an ex-local paper hack now doing consultancy. Take them on a 3 month trial and see what they can deliver.
Those professionals will tell you what you probably already know, which is that bread and butter PR relies on certain basics. Just so I cannot be accused of covering those here, let me run, quickly, through half a dozen examples:
1. The media love human interest stories –like to tell a story through people’s lives – examples of how housing has transformed family/individual life chances.
2. The media love third party endorsement – so secure some: local police trumpeting decline in crime since new estate refurbishment, Head Teacher backs after-school youth provision on estate, etc.
3. The media love plain speaking – so avoid jargon – the public doesn’t know their Assured Tenancy from their ALMO !
4. The media love research so fund small-scale research projects on aspects of community life.
5. The media love surveys, so do some rough and ready comparative surveys on tenant satisfaction – happiest tenants North of Watford etc
6. The media love league tables (eg. Greenest estate (recycling levels/trees, level of diversity, fittest estate (levels of physical activity) etc, etc.
I would add, though, that cutting edge PR is moving from the news pages into the comment pages. Mention of HA initiatives in columns by people like David Aaronovitch and Polly Toynbee are just as important as news stories – and arguably have a greater impact. PR doyen Julia Hobsbawm is leading the way on this with her very smart outfit Editorial Intelligence and I would check out what they do.
Oh, and a final bit of advice, involve and listen to your staff – they will have the most interesting stories, community contacts, and case studies.
CONCLUSION
Hopefully we can explore all this more in our discussion but my closing thought is a simple one:
In a world ever dominated by shallow spin about superficial things, you all have stories to tell that are real, vital and truly important to peoples’ lives.
I understand that why you might be wary, and hesitant BUT
Your story, and your stories, should be – indeed need to be – a much, much, louder part of our national conversation.
ENDS
Presumably you were one of the ‘lucky’ attendees 126 Anon?
As Derek says in his speech to the Housing Association lot:
“In a world ever dominated by shallow spin about superficial things, you all have stories to tell that are real, vital and truly important to peoples’ lives.”
What a charlatan!
His next speech will be “Can you put me on your list please?”
No, his next speech will be short and simple, along the lines of “would you like fries with that, sir?”
His next speech will be delivered to the invisible man whilst staggering along the Embankment clutching a bottle of White Lightning, leaving a thin trail of piss beind him.
….and the lamentation of their woman.
Whatever happened to the degarding filthy smears you people used to indulge in so heartily, especially when discussing Draper and his wife?
You have really cleaned yourselves up quite a lot, well done!
Tra laa!
Yeah yeah Mr slik!
This site has no government funding or government support, the stories were not planned on government computers by top civil servants during working hours, the stories on this site have all been proven true UNLIKE the stories planned in detail at No10 Downing St.
So Mr slik can you see the difference now?
Take off your party blinkers you bloody fool, open your eyes and look around at the real world, not the fantasy fucking island you seem to reside in, you are so out of touch that you cannot see this site for what it is can you?
You support your team ‘right or wrong’ and attack without thinking the very people you should be supporting! FFS wake up before its too late, the stinking rotten establishment is playing you like a cheap flute and untill people like you wake and see how your blind loyalty has been betrayed there can be little hope of change.
Cassandra
its not the Silk hoon. Check the name posted its = S!lk
other than that absolutely spot on with comments.
Thanks annon.
someone said he looked like Guidoaf Orcs.
Imagine.
Think they will compromise if I offer 50p?
No, but you can get a copy of the picture at the top showing Kate’s two big tits
only two, where is the third one, you know the one with the beard (facial) and stomach?
Sink the NHS!
Splice the main brace!
Shiver metimbers!
Bird’s Eye Fishfingers!
Walls pork sausages!!
(don’t think I get this game?)
A finger of fudge is just enough to get you arrested on Hampstead Heath.
I’m glad to see you share my concern, Guido!

Derek Draper is a perfect illustration of the true face of socialism, on the surface you see a superificial gloss of ‘caring’N'sharing/heart of gold/lets all help the poor etc etc, however when the mask slips you get to see the nasty,vicious,cruel,racist,bullying and spiteful character underneath!
The mistake people make is to take a socialist at face value and believe what they say, BIG MISTAKE!
Look closely at Draper, he is the true face of socialism!
Absolutely right about socialists. You’ve only got to look at the self-absorbed rich actor types who like to harp on about poverty and this and that or whatever but aren’t actually very nice to the people around them.
A bit like Lenin & Co in 1917. They invented Stalin.
Another lesson to be learned from Draper’s downfall is how little the upper echelons of NuLabour (Socialism) can be trusted & how little they will back their lackeys & gofers like Draper when the shit hits the fan. They were quite happy to let Draper slime his way around while he was doing their dirty work ‘independantly’. Once a light was shone on Draper & his nastiness & he was shown to be linked to his ‘masters’ he was dropped like a steaming great turd. Anyone heard anyone from NuLabour standing up for Draper? Where’s his big fan Mandy – suspiciously quiet in Draper’s defence it seems. Suddenly they’re all ready to put the knife in. Loyalty? None of that lot would recognise it if it came up & slapped them across their chops.
DD is also a perfect example of how little the NuLabour upper echelons will stand behind their lackeys & gofers like Draper when the s**t hits the fan. While he was apparently ‘independant’ he was allowed to smear, bully, threaten, harass & lie to his heart’s content. Once his links to No 10 were demonstrated via his emails to/from McBrode, he was dropped like a steaming great t**d.
Sorry for the double posting chaps & chapesses. 186 had disappeared into the wild blue yonder as far as I was concerned so 187 was a quick re-hash. I thought it was because of some of the words – hence the ‘****s’ in 187.
Slightly O/T but Dolly’s free therapy advert has now disappeared from Labout List
Was he offering it, or asking for it?
This is one fight I will not be pursuing.
Being of sound mind and far more qualified than Draper ever will be, I have to say he is a right (or is that left) t.w.a.t. This publication is risible. His claims to psychological harmony are undone by his petulant and excessive egotistical behaviour. If he’s like this at home I fear for his wife and child, his neighbours indeed everyone he is in contact with. Of course, he could be ‘acting’ but he hasn’t got the talent for that either.
Not just the advert – all mention of Draper has disappeared from Labour list. “Johanna Baxter, National Officer for Connect, is our guest editor… (Her soups are nice)
Guido what have you done!!!
Normally I’d say Guido stands aside from the humdrum affairs of psychotic psychoanalysts. This attempt by him to notice and help the renowned author in the sale of his book is both philanthropic and selfless. I hope that Guido manages to avoid the temptation to read said book; else his razor-sharp intellect must surely be turned to mush.
THE ONLY GOOD DRAPER IS KIPPS!
Its definetly curtains for Draper thats for sure
Beef curtains?

Perhaps Dolly was abducted by his PC.

I think you did a good job in knocking this man off his perch, but what is the point in continuing to kick him when he is down. Find some other fucker to target before this site gets too booring.
Sorry typo “boring”
You clearly have no idea what an utterly vile, odious, mendacious, self regarding, puffed up, pompous, & indeed preening prat Drooper actually is.
No amount of goading will suffice for me innit.
I agree. Check out this telling paragraph from his Housing Association waffle:
“I would add, though, that cutting edge PR is moving from the news pages into the comment pages. Mention of HA initiatives in columns by people like David Aaronovitch and Polly Toynbee are just as important as news stories – and arguably have a greater impact. PR doyen Julia Hobsbawm is leading the way on this with her very smart outfit Editorial Intelligence and I would check out what they do.”
We all know about Editorial Intelligence and their view of us, the “commentariat”. People who use such disgusting terminology for the average person need to be investigated fully. I seem to recall them having some peculiar involvement in the Madeleine McCann appeal.
As for Toynbee and Aaronovitch, well, enough said.
Yes I do indeed have a good idea what this man was like. However he has been well and truly exposed as such and I think it is a little OTT to keep up the pressure. Unless of course Dolly has retained any influence at all with the Liebour party and I don’t see any evidence of that. Perhaps I’m just a softy!!
There is no point in getting an arse in your sights and not kicking it (especially a total arse) – just to make sure a turd like that stays down! If it wasn’t for him, I’d still be kissing Gordon’s bottom !
Anyone want my new mobile number ? No ? Bugger !
Hmm That book might be of some use to me.
My antique reading table has an uneven leg, and that baby appears to be just the right thickness.
These comments are “absolutely brilliant”
Do you mean “absolutely, totally brilliant Damien” ?
Mine’s a large scotch, Mr Whelan, old chum !
When can we look forward to the McBride/Draper edition of the Little Red Book of Sleaze?
i think this book is well placed to brave the global literary storm….
See Private Eye, “Always the McBridesmaid, never the McBride”.
Kevin Maguire plays an interesting part.
Apparently, the government is considering regulating counsellors and psychotherapists, who operate without proper licencing.
Would they need to check qualifications?
Would Mr Draper need to worry about his Berkley studies?
Why did Draper get thrown out of Wright Institute? Does anyone really know? Is he qualified to practice in the UK?
Oh and why’s he still in the Labour Party ? Press made a big deal of McBride being thrown out so how come Draper’s local MP is still putting up with his rancid presence???
He’s still in the Labour Party because they need every subscription they can get and they really don’t give a shit who subscribes…
Speaking of rancid presences, what is this talk about a Stalking Horse? Has the Kingmaker been told about it? Click here….

Isn’t that a Euro sign?
Guido, when are you going to put that ugly, scheming pig Charlie Whelan in your cross hairs.
So far he has virtually slipped below the radar.
Time for action to nail that slippery bastard as well.
Why buy Dolly’s book when you can get mine for free? Brown’s premiership is turning just as I predicted in my book “Boom and Bust” written before he became PM. Contact me on nigel_bowker_917@hotmail.com for a free electronic copy.
Did you see that the links to Derek Draper’s websites and twitter have been removed from the home page of Labourlist? They’ve obviously dropped him (at last).
Leave Kate Garraway alone, guys. She has enough to contend with, her being pregnant and everything.
Back ache, trying to look great that early in the day, a shit t.v. programme AND morning sickness – mind you, she could avoid that by not looking at the scumbag whilst eating breakfast !
Boy, did she lose out – kissing her prince and he turned into a toad !
Poor Kate.
Fancy having to wake up and see that scruffy dirtbag every morning.
Has anyone made up any parody clothing? Take out the wally and produce a “where’s Dolly?” T-shirt?
Come on Guido, you can’t expect The Priory to give out names and addresses of celebrity clients!
since pretty much the last that was publicly seen of Dolly he was fleeing with his pc in a polly bag … could he be being held captive at his local PC World?
