Max Clifford says…
“Most people want to read nasty things about people, not nice things.”
DisgustedOfMitcham2 says:
Maybe if they really wanted to “decontaminate the Labour brand” with business people, they shouldn’t have totally buggered up the economy?
Just a thought.
Unbelievable just how out of touch these tossers are. Even when confronted with a room full of angry people, he’s still self-deluded enough to think 3/4 of them were supporting him.
Let’s just hope the good folks of Bracknell make it even clearer to him what they think of him come the next election.
Politicians in general are just automatic liars, and now they have been shown to be automatic thieves, too. Time for a REAL change, not just leafy pruning: root and branch work, top to bottom.
Three quarters of those in the room supported me – ha,ha,ha,ha,ha,ha,ha,ha,ha, ha – what a wanker. Thats like the Yorkshire Ripper saying three quarters of his victims had no problem with what he was doing. This sleazy little spiv must answer in court for his thieving.
I have just seen on Sky that the Scottish trougher Ian McCartny (ex labour chairman) will not stand at the next election due to health reasons. The little bastard thinks if he claims health issues everything will be ok.
Old Holborn had fun at Parliament today
MacKay to step down. http://www.rantinrab.blogspot.com
There were severaly interesting responses to Any Questions this lunchtime. Somebody phoned in who’d been working on some No.10 initiative or committee with politicians parachuted in to advise.
He sounded as though it had been rather frustrating experience and recounted how one of them had taken him aside and said, “You have to understand that we politicians operate ‘above the cloud cover’ of everyday life”. His point was that once they get into Parliament they join this elite establishment, and consider themselves above the rest of us, whatever background they come from. It shows.
spot on, delaval
full time professional hustlers.
clueless public allow it
“The British nation is unique in this respect. They are the only people who like to be told how bad things are, who like to be told the worst”.
“The truth is incontrovertible, malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end; there it is”.
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/financetopics/recession/5373334/SandPs-warning-to-Britain-marks-the-next-stage-of-this-global-crisis.html
Closing paragraphs from the above DT 230509: S&P’s warning to Britain marks the next stage of this global crisis
“And it is this final point which is perhaps the silver lining for the UK. The S&P announcement this week represented something of an ultimatum. The statement warned that unless the party that wins the election shows clear and convincing signs of putting the fiscal books back in order, a downgrade will surely follow. Neither Gordon Brown nor David Cameron will like it, but this could be the final stick that beats back their first Budget into order. It means they will be forced either to slash spending or raise taxes in as soon as a year. No one will much enjoy this but if it helps preserve Britain’s ratings, and thus ensures the UK can keep financing itself, it will be a pain worth suffering.
For in the final stage of this crisis, those countries that recover and start to flourish will be those that face up soonest to the new period of fiscal austerity that must last for the next decade”.
correct! liars to a man you never hear one answer a question. liars thieves and sexual deviants
mckay is a lying c’unt who has stolen from the taxpayer, been caught and yet still proclaims his innocence and tries to hid behind the skirt of procedure.
mckay is a spineless piece of shit.
the thief should have his hands chopped off really.
oh, and his toungue cut out.
note to mckay: you are on the list, thief.
is that a carpet tile on his head ?
I think its a dead rat….
All correct; after a conversaton with Dave, he has stood down and will not contest the next election. (BBC News) Only Kirkbride to go now; she will need to prepare to relinquish her troughing very shortly. How can these two think they would ever get away with it?
The Speaker would protect them all and there was ‘safety in numbers’.
Not anymore.
Posts around on fraud. Conspiracy to defraud is good for Kirkbride and this geezer; the so-called rules could not over-ride the criminal law.
Parliament cannot write rules or legislation which are beyond its legal powers. There is plenty of precedent for that including Erskine May.
So Inspector Knacker, will you do the job or is it for the people to start a lynching?
NO! its a shredded wheat borrowed from athur scargill.
When it comes to the European elections let them all know what you think by voting for the only party not involved in this sleaze, vote libertas.eu if you want a Europe that works for you.
If you want democracy, accountability, transparency and an end to the troughing in Europe vote libertas.eu
check us out at http://www.libertas.eu and use your vote with confidence.
PLEASE, just f*ck off, will you. don’t you see what’s happening here: all your bullshit party bollocks is being dismantled. GO AWAY!
“Libertas” FUCK OFF you tosser! Why the fuck would anyone want to support even bigger troughers. 75% of our laws come from the EU and are rubber stamped by our corrupted politicians. Staying in the EU costs us $40 million a day! Where is the vote WE were promised? Every country that was given the democratic right to vote has said NO! The EU’s accounts haven’t been audited for the last 14 years, I wonder why. So FUCK OFF and stop pedalling your shite here.
That looks like a no then.
In answer to FUCK OFF BACK TO BRUSSELS’s assertion that “the EU’s accounts haven’t been audited for the last 14 years” I think they have been audited, it’s just that the chief accountant — or whoever it is — refuses to “sign off” on them.
#160 to split the hair again, the fact that the chief auditor has consistently declined to sign off the audits is a clear and unambiguous sign that they are NOT ACCEPTABLE and would not stand up to scrutiny – they are bogus,therefore, no signature, no audit.
Auditors know that they would be personally liable if anything they signed was subsequently challenged and shown to be dishonest.
Arthur Anderson anyone ?
FUCK OFF you euro troughing hoon
you cnuts are part of the problem
#180 I completely agree with you that the account being “NOT ACCEPTABLE”, I just wished to clarify FOBTB’s assertion that they hadn’t been audited. In terms of Anonymous’s comment,
“you cnuts are part of the problem”
if this refers to me and “WobblyJim” this is utterly ridiculous! Maybe you think I’m a Europhile. I’m not and I very much doubt “WobblyJim” is either.
If one good thing comes out of this sorry mess it is that more scrutiny will be paid to the MEPs and *their* expenses.
judas goat party
your website is full of nonsensical public relations garbage buzzwords
why dont you attack the LIARS party
He’s just spinning it. Thought he’d turn up to a room full of blue-rinsed old tories and probably got a shock. The fool. He set himself up for this – no other MP has done this as they never, ever like meeting the great unwashed, nor do they like being questioned. And now, after this, no other MP will hold an open meeting.
Time for Dave to cut him loose, get the local party to deselect him or they will lose the seat here.
Incidentally, the hecklers aren’t Labourites are they?
wouldn’t surprise me if his personal tastes included utter humiliation, any gimp suits on his expense claims ?
No, they are dinosaurs – Smegosaurus Maxes, I do believe.
i thought naahhh cant be that bad , but constituancey stuck boot into him for not even telling truth about meeting .
i had pondered if they would keep him if he paid it back , apparantley he didnt rush to do , one member ,a copper said it was proscutable fraud !!
looks like worst sort of troughing , my favourite heard on radio this week when Elliot Morley broke ” do you know anyone who cant remeber if they had paid off there mortgage ??”
David Clelland, Labour MP for Tyne Bridge, in his constituency report at http://www.david-clelland.org.uk/
“Party leaders should
shut up and wait until Sir
Christopher Kelly’s committee
reach their conclusions – although I
noted Committee members
themselves are allowed a £240
daily allowance, £120 nightly
London allowance and up to £40
for lunch and £50 for dinner for
each of their working days!
Which perhaps puts the subject in
context.”
Clelland is old Labour, a real troughing pro. He should be deselected immediately. He only wants people to shut up because he has gone to considerable lengths to stop the freedom of information on MP’s expenses coming out. He is a real condescending twat who doesn’t give a toss about the average man in the street. Check his expenses. He’s swindled £20K profit out of the tax payer on his London flat. Check his voting record. He’s strongly opposed freedom of information. He has been troughing for more than 22 years, he should go now!
I agree! I was just astounded at the bare-faced hypocrisy!
LOL just read Clelland excuses on expenses. it is fucking amazing how one MP’s property is devalued for friends and relatives. In Clellands case the property increased substantially in value, when the TAX payer is paying the difference. I my opinion Clelland and all the other MP’s who strongly voted against freedom of information and transparency, should go now.
Clelland is despicable. He represents one of the most deprived areas in the country and he’s used a rock-solid Labour seat to get his trotters on as much taxpayers’ cash as possible whilst many of his constuents are on the breadline.
A complete triple A grade 1 selected twat.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Clelland
Check out the controversy and follow the links. This guy thinks he is untouchable because of his majority. He is also part of the Liebour whip and responsible for the lies and deceit.
Clelland’s 2007/8 total expenses claim
£156,383
not including salary.
Where is this information?
How much has he spent in previous years?
And what the fecking hell did he spend £156,383 that’s £428 per day!!!!!
I think there’s some people here with a common goal.
Bye Bye Clellend.
These tosspots haven’t got a brain cell to rub between them. The country is dying of thirst for a change of government and you have these wankers jeopardizing the project.
Absolute wanker. Crucify him.
This behaviour suggests that a beasting is in order.
Is he wearing eye liner?
McKay Knows, and his association knows, that his constituency is far more likely to return a Conservative MP if he resigns and they select a new candidate.
He and his association are traitors to the party, traitors to the constituency and traitors to the Country.
Damn right Moley
You have got it right for once
(Knew a chap at school called Moley – funny fellow – He liked badgers – Is that you ?)
What do you expect – he was an estate agent.Not exactly the most honourable of people.He is a slimeball and I am glad that he is to stand down.The sooner his wife does too, the better
At 2.54 (ish) Mackay admits that the majority of people who spoke at the meeting were critics. Therefore, if the majority of people at that meeting were critical of him, how can he say that 3/4 of the people there were clapping in support him? That is sloppy journalism and he really should have been shown up when he admitted that.
Just goes to show that Mackay realises the majority of people there were not supporting him, but were critical of him. Stupid self deluded bastard!
Duncan’s Panama Hat
On twitter as @julianbray: JOIN us…
I originally posted this on Friday, April 08, 2005 in view of the current moatgate activities IDS or even betsy might like to issue and paper the walls with a few writs
“Before IDS became leader of the Tory party, I often used to meet him and Betsy at Sports days and parents evenings. This was at a boarding prep school where our sons were incarcerated. IDS would parade up and down, always with a panama hat on his head. A prop. discarded when he rose to high office.
Betsy would be the chatty one, and I enjoyed our conversations. IDS would prefer to parade around, doing the room, like a preverbial butterfly but he was light on meaningful conversation.
Betsy had a spot of bother, trying to justify the secretarial salary however it was painfully obvious that if Betsy had not held the fort together, IDS would have remained on the back benches. The current incumbent with something of the night about him, won’t fare any better, every time I see him all I see is Rory Bremner – or has the current leader decided that Bremner is the ideal telegenic role model after all?
resigned!
Mackay heckled? Ha ha. Mackay’s GONE.
what about his Julie?
What’s great is the fact that the public are now challenging them face to face, on camera and basically calling them liars. We see it here, we saw it on Question Time the other night.
We need to see it all the time. Every time one of these tossers opens his or her mouth they should be shouted down and called names.
It might focus their attention a little more.
The main one this needs to be done to of course is Gordon Brown, every time he shows his face or opens his mouth he should be shouted at.
Mind you the tower of courage he is, he’ll never show his face in public.
Abhorrent shit of a man.
Well said! Remind them they work for us. Not the other way round.
You’ll notice that Brown only appears at staged events with selected “members of the public”
God forbid any proles should be allowed near to him
It would not surprise me if his team have not been searching the mental health institutes looking for a body double.
They have already found one. What I want to know where is the real Gordon Brown?
The real Gordon Brown hanged himself in a sudden attack of shame months ago.
The wrong combination of pills made him momentarily conscious of reality for the first time and it was too much to bear.
To avoid an election, ZaNuLab reanimated his sagging corpse (hence the inch-thick mortuary make-up) through the use of an unholy combination of voodoo rites and animatronic puppetry.
Every points to Gordon Brown. He arranged for a totally tame Speaker to be appointed. He ensured that MPs were handed “sweeties” to keep them quiet whilst he pushed through policies unchalledged.
AND HE HAS RUN A DIRTY TRICKS OPERATION PAID FOR BY US SINCE HIS DAYS IN THE TREASURY
EVERYONE KNOWS THAT NOW
THANKS TO GUIDO
THAT IS GROSS MISUSE OF PUBLIC FUNDS AT THE LEAST…
AND REQUIRES A CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION NOW OR BY THE NEXT GOVERNMENT
WE DO NOT PAY TAXES FOR POLITICIANS TO SMEAR AND DECEIVE AT OUR EXPENSE
That’s the sort of person who gravitates to politics. More voting just brings out more of them. The whole political/media class should be put under much harsher and more frequent scrutiny.
Agree Raven, they should have to face the public – in person, face to face on a very regular basis. Their lies and self congratulation won’t be tolerated outside their own friendly, filthy, corrupt little circle.
Abhorrent shit of a man? Let’s see. He’s also lying, cowardly, untalented, economically incompetent, self-deluding, humourless, dithering, bullying, untrustworthy, treacherous, diffident, boorish, maladroit, stupid, one-eyed (not his fault), Scottish (ditto) and an all-round idiot. He’s also a control-freak and married that poor woman purely for political window-dressing. Apart from that……
……apart from that he a hoon.
Why aren’t we seeing this kind of thing for the Liebour goons?
Because they’re running scared of the “court of public opinion” and know that their time is up. In their eyes, there is little point in them coming out and tackling the situation head on because they know the public has stopped listening to them. Just look at McTwat who is petrified of any kind of vote (whether on the EU Constitution, a General Election or the Glasgow by-election) because he knows it’ll be a referendum on his tenure as the worst PM in living memory.
Too busy hiding from PC Plod then?
I heard Mandelson say the public have no appetite for a general election, obviously he doesn’t hang out at the same eateries as the general population. The polls say the public want one soon, Brown is probably writing his speech to her Majesty, which could take some time, you know how slow Brown is in making decisions
Brown has stopped writing his speech because he has eaten all his crayons.
You guys have got Gordon Brown all wrong.
Brown is a really decent man, a good decision maker too.
He is a charismatic and honest fellow. He us a man who quickly decides what is the right thing to do for the benefit of his country and he honours his promises.
And it is also worth noting how loyal and generous he is with taxpayers’ money to the members of his Scottish Mafia which he uses to foist his will upon England.
Yes Brown is a great guy, he is really sticking it to those honkey English people, he is fucking them real good.
Go Scottishman, get revenge on the white devil!
Leave the man alone you English twats. He’s brought lots of Benefits to Scautland.
Dat Brown man is my hero
Yes dat man sure know how to ruin a country.
lend us a fiver Robert…
Because they don’t want to appear on telly looking like a be-wigged, in-denial goon, like a rabbit in the headlights.
This was the definition of PR disaster. He just thought he could ‘manage’ the situation, stack the audience, chose a chairman who wouldn’t take a vote, control the crowd and smarm through the interview. All he could do was cling to his ‘straw poll’ and he will be clinging to that come election day.
Its plain he doesn’t think he’s done wrong and plain he has no intention of standing down. Its also plain he never had any intention of taking any notice of anyone who disagreed with him.
It won’t wash Dave – SACK HIM.
Speaking of votes. On the special edition Question Time, why didn’t David Dimbleby let the audience vote on whether or not they wanted a general election?
“On the special edition Question Time, why didn’t David Dimbleby let the audience vote on whether or not they wanted a general election?”
Because there would have been an overwhelming show of hands for an election and it would have hit the headlines and embarassed the BBC. Dimblewit’s quick changing of the subject by letting another member of the audience speak was blatently obvious.
The current Labour/BBC spin is denial and point the finger at the Tories. These lying, venal soviet-fascists will avoid an election like the plague, hence Mandelson’s ridiculous and contemptible remark that there is no public appetite for an election. There is no Labour/BBC (champagne in 1997 when their party won) appetite for an election – the public are desperate for one because they want change – any change.
They are still lying & spinning and the BBC are still reporting their lies and spin, quick to rush off on a false trail whenever Brown and his gang of Nazi thugs throw out a diversion.
Until the Labour Scots soviet-fascist and BBC hegemony is broken for all time lies and spin will dominate the political landscape and prevent open, honest debate and direction in the fortunes of England.
This site, by concentrating on a few sad Tory wibble-wobble has-beens instead of the real corruption at the heart of Westminster (Hoon, Purnell, Smith, etc.), is doing Brown’s work for him. Smokescreen, decoy, diversion, point the finger “Please sir, they did it first” and expect the long suffering public to swallow this crap. Brown is a nasty piece of work, make no mistake, and will go to any lengths to stay in power – the MacBride case is evidence of that.
I agree entirely with what you said. I am sick of hearing about silly low cost items on expenses. What we need to see is how much each of the major troughers has got away with. We should also find out who has profited most from their embezzlements. The spot light should be turned on the government first! Starting with Broon and the cabinet members.
Dead right. Except for the 2 most serious offenders (Morley+ Chayter), the worst and virtually verging on criminal offenders are still Klebb + McNulty.
As they were outed before the current spate of revelations they seem to have disappeared into the background.
The BBC want to hang on to the £17m they handed out in bonuses last year. Bonuses for what? They hardly make any of their own programmes anymore, they are mostly commissioned to independent production companies. They pay Ross £6m a year and then moan that they need more money. What’s with the twin newsreaders on everything? Why do they need a pair when one used to do?
Cameron should cut into the BBC like a hot knife through butter.
The BBC have questions to answer as regards their hiring policies. Gaby Roslin and the other ex Big Breakfast guy were hired so that their rivals could not use them. Vanessa Feltz as well. Then they found that they had no television programmes for them to make.
Perhaps they’re basically a bunch of crooks who finance themselves from the public one way or another. They don’t see anything wrong in itt, and feel they should be able to grab even more, with less scrutiny from the public, whose role is to pay up and do as they are told by their socialist betters.
When are all the sleazy Labour MPs and ministers going to face the public?
They are lying low and letting Pravda have fun with the Tories
Indeed. Mind you – better that the Tories get their shit out of the way now than have it fall on them from a great height.
Labour are putting off the evil day and June 4th is coming up fast.
I want to beat up my local MP and get into the papers init but he’s done a dissapearing act. Me and some of the lads are gonna go round on monday and sit outside his house with a crate of stella from the tesco’s init.
Aks Big T ta brin Tyson de Mastiff innit. He can mash up any dog what tries it on
Funny you should say that, about beating him up.
I actually had the opportunity to push my local trougher in the canal a while back…..sweating and puffing along by his self he was, all aloney.
Wish i had now knowing how much he’s had off us.
Ah well, maybe next time eh…… a gob full of fresh gooseshit should make him happy.
I can dream until then.
UKIP Scotland takes its message to Gordon Brown’s constituency of Kirkcaldy and Cowdenbeath:
(At the Devon show this weekend UKIP have a stand and so do the Tories. The Tories stand is deserted whilst people are flocking to the UKIP stand and grabbing literature)
Another unbiased report from our roving reporter
..RAVING..SHURLEY
Dear UKIP,
Please explain why Bob Spink, your sole MP, supported the speaker in the HOC this week?
Well he’s not our MP but the point he made was that they were simply using Martin as a scapegoat to draw the poison way from themselves which seems a pretty fair point to me.
And of course this is a ‘beneficial crisis’ to New Labour and you end up getting what they wished for:
http://eureferendum.blogspot.com/2009/05/scorched-earth.html
Anyway, for a little light relief the Daily Sport has some interesting posters:
http://dailysport.co.uk/view.asp?ID=1026
Spink is an Independent MP but the point he raised is one which was very pertinent.
Martin was simply being used as a scapegoat by the MPs to try and draw the poison away from themselves and they ganged up on him like bullies.
The outcome of all of this has proved to be a beneficial crisis which Labour is using to further erode what’s left of parliamentary Independence:
http://eureferendum.blogspot.com/2009/05/scorched-earth.html
Perhaps you should detach yourself from the mob and put your brain in gear before you start to knit at the execution.
(Excuse if this is duplicated but the posting system has gone a bit strange)
I wonder how people will feel when they find out UKIP’s main man MEP has been ripping off expenses worse than anyone else at the EU parliament.
Does the literature cover Tom Wise and his criminal troughing or Farage’s reported claim of two MILLION quid over his EU tenure.
Or will it be lying twat.
UKIP are troughing just as much and have done B all about getting us out of Europe.
They voted for the Spanish to plunder our fish and against our beer according to a recent report.
Going to mention that in Devon?
They are just doing it to maximise our resentment of the EU, while repatriating as much of our money as they can via expenses. Honest.
Can I just say how disappointed I was with The Blue Brazil. I was expecting something completely different.
just line em all up and shoot em

BY LIVING IN BRAQKNELL
Where’s Gordon?
He has to go, he came across as walter mitty after that debacle
Excuse me dear Sir, I take that remark as a slight and insult on my fine moral standing, Mr Brown far surpassed any benchmark I set, long ago.
Gorgon’s running errands for his Gurkha charity this w/e (or was it climbing Everest?).
Didn’t you know? He’s worked tirelessly all these years (or a couple of weeks) for their right to live in Britain and won a fantastic victory in Parliament by voting in defiance of his whips and his own instructions to let them stay. He’s truly a brave PM and a good man.
This amoeba MP must go now. He took a gamble on facing the public and has lost. DC – a close ally has become a lying liability. Weild the axe David Cameron.
If Cameron has people like this as his friends – can he afford enemies?
Where are the BBC cameras at Zanulab constituency meetings?
No meetings to have cameras at. The thieving labour shits are hiding in their bunkers.
Nothing to see here. It’s political business as usual. The public can go back to sleep.
Labour constituencies are in really nasty places. You can’t seriously expect a BBC luvvie to go to places like Schoonthorpe — they might meet some of those poor people or worse the underclass.
Excellent Television !!
I also note that despite Nadine’s Blog going AWOL, she has an article in the Indy..
Go Nadine !
Most of what she said was a straight lift from one of her last posts before it was pulled.
The hostile reactions to bent MPs are all fair comment, but we do have to give some thought to what’s going on politically.
There seems to be a concerted campaign to undermine Parliament. Where does this emanate from? Could it be that the ex-Tory-graph with it’s long running associatiion with MI5 is part of some plot?
Note that the strange “Mr Wick” (a psuedonym?) is allegedly ex-SAS (favourite operatives of Thames House – retired SAS – that’s if he is one – lots of the self-announced ones are fakes).
Note that the Barclays, operating from Sark, may have their own agenda as well.
Note that MPs on the Tory side coming under attack are nearly all on the liberal side of the Tory party and many of them are either Europhiles or anti-tax-haven or both.
We undermine Parliamentary democracy at our peril. What do we want in it’s place? The sinister-sounding “Parliamentary Management Office”? Straight out of Orwell.
That’s why we need an immediate general election. A new parliament will regain its legitimacy to resist the enemies of democracy. The present rotting hulk is open to every kind of pressure.
We need to weed out all of thieving MP’s and when we are finished, the dozen or so that are left can show the new MP’s how to behave properly
Getting rid of self-serving Tory Europhile Wets is a step in the right direction.
Praise the Lord!
Getting rid of these pro European traitors is a bonus!!!!!!!
If they weren’t on the take they wouldn’t have a problem.
Probably pro Europe its the biggest gravy train around, they just hope to become a ‘commissar’
I wouldn’t worry about it.
What “parliamentary democracy” are you talking about?
What evidence do you have that England or the UK ever had a democracy. Do you know what democracy means?
No, sorry, not a clue.
Catesby … let me hazard a definition.
Democracy = government to which the majority of people freely defer because they acknowledge its legitimacy.
Not quite the Attic ideal, but better than nothing.
Heh heh!
Of course I do
A democratic Government is one whose policies reflect the majority view of the electorate.
Note that democratic Government cannot reflect the views of those who do not vote.
The concerted campaign to undermine Parliament has been run from within, by previous (mostly Labour) prime ministers, Blair and Brown, The Speaker and his subordinates, with the eager assent of most MP’s, willing to sell out their country for a little personal advantage.
I think he got off lightly to be just “heckled”, he was lucky he wasn’t lynched!
Yes I agree. Hang the cheating B’stard.

HE GOT OFF VERY POLITELY
AS THE ENGLISH SAY
Wish I could knit – anyone got a spare crochet hook?
He should resign – if only for wearing that syrup!!!!!
Ha ha – it looks like Arthur Scargill’s rug came out of retirement. I hope he didn’t claim for that on exes – we’d have been doubly had.
Quite right. You would have thought he could have afforded a much more convincing one than that, especially since he could no doubt just claim it on expenses.
There is no hope for the voter at present because all parties are involved it is simply a matter of voting for the ones who will steal less.
We can however keep them all out of Europe and vote for the only party in the European election campaign who are not involved in any sleaze or scandal.
Check us out at http://www.libertas.eu.
If you want democracy, accountability. transparency and an end to the troughing in Europe use your vote with confidence libertas.eu if you want a Europe that works for you.
I don’t want a Europe that works for me. I want a Europe that fucks right off and leaves me alone. I want Europe to fucking do one sharpish. So I’ll vote for anybody who hates Europe, just on fucking principal. And I live in Germany. Go figure…
Herr (hairy?) Goat das ist wunderbar.
Yup – completely agreed, and I live in Germany as well. Just for interest, ALL of the locals I know (simple citizens, and lots of them, but no politicos) share this view.
I see you have used politicians words, so you want to stay in the EU,so thanks for that on less party to think about
Edward Devoy you and Libertas can stick your democracy,accountability , transparacy and all the other bollocks where the sun dont shine. You dont get it – you dont understood how the majority of Brits want out of this crime syndicate.
I will assume we wont get a referendum from your lot either.
Libertas you were told to FUCK OFF earlier. Your about as welcome a turd (politician) in a swimming pool. Watch the door doesn’t slam on your arse on the way out!
Libertas? Fucking right-wing window lickers par excellance…
Fucking delicious!
Cameron cannot allow shows like this to carry on without him showing dynamic and decisive leadership.
He MUST, today, sack each and every one of the MP’s who have had their hands in the till. NOT hide behind his committee. He cannot allow support for the Tories to slip away as it will do every time an idiotic MP goes on the television/radio like Dorres, Steen and Mackay it is quite unbelieveable that Cameron is allowing his party to disintegrate, as it will do with any more of this nonsense.
Well, I’d certainly have a lot of respect for him if he did. But take pity on the poor chap: how would he run a party if he only had 3 MPs left?
Now it seems not only can MP’s themselves become very rich at our expense, their relatives can as well. Bernard Jenkin, 50K to his sister-in-law, Ian Gibson, half price flat to his daughter after we paid to renovate it.
The whole thing stinks. I have not a shred of sympathy for any of them GET THE OFFENDERS OUT, EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM.
Yeah,what we want now is a rush of suicides from these thieving scum.
Yes whole familys of them performing a ritual suicide of barricading themselves in their floating duck houses and then pulling the plug and scuttling themselves.
About duck houses I just saw a quote from, Sir Peter Viggers – he said he was ashamed and humiliated about buying the duck house on expenses – the ducks never liked the feature.
Is it true that he bought it for his French chateau? Would make sense of the design.
As a resident of Couldn’tMakeItUpLand – I’ve no idea what is true anymore.

If I could be God for just 5 minutes, and change just one thing in the world, I would fix it so all politicians’ noses grew every time they told a lie. Just imagine how much more amusing interviews like this would become. And as for PMQ…

GOD IS YHOD
AND YHOD IS A DGJEWISH WURD
A PIGMENT OF THE DGJEWISH IMADGJII~NATION SUKKER
Thank you, Tammy McTyburn, for that!
But for you, I would have believed my Dictionary – and what I was taught at University – that ‘God’ is an Anglo-Saxon word. But now I know better (we’d better tell Oxford and Chambers), it’s a Jewish word, not even a word from the Hebrew, where the sacred tetragrammaton has ‘Y”s, but no ‘D’.
Time for you to re-write not only our Etymologies, and our Dictionaries, but the Old Testament – and, therefore, the New Testament.
What a privilege it is, to have such a scholarly being among us!
It should be a crime for any MP to lie to the public. If and when an accusation is made, it should be investigated by a jury of the general public. Yeh ok, the jury will be very busy for the first few years. Once the politicians realised the penalties and we made a few examples, things would get better. Does anyone know how to implant lie detectors?
It’s the people behind him you need to look at not him on this video,Pravda had another video from a slightly different angle and the man in the background his jaw dropped when this guy said 75% of the blah blah blah.
It wasn’t mine
One of the most oily, sleazy creeps I have seen in a long while. He puts me in mind of the likes of Neil Hamilton and the “Cash for Questions” row. There is not a shred of decency about this individual. And yet what is really being done about these people? Even if they are booted out by being de-selected or by losing their seat at a General Election, how much of our money will still be paid to them in what I will turn “severance” payments when they leave the Commons? The whole pace of dealing, and dealing effectively, with these individuals, in all parties, is moving far too slowly.
Don’t think of it as Severance pay.
Think of it as REWARD FOR FAILURE!
I was trying to think of the “right” word to use for it. What should happen with all these individuals is once they are finished in Parliament, then every last opportunity for them to continue taking from the public purse ceases there and then. Most of them still do not get the level of fury in the country at how these people have been milking the system/us for years.
What is so sad is that this is nothing new – corruption in the House of Commons has been endemic for centuries. A couple of days ago, I found out, to my surprise, that even that beacon of moral probity in the Commons Sir Thomas More was not above “arranging” for his son-in-law William Daunce to become MP for Thetford in 1529, when Daunce had no connection whatsoever with the town and was in fact a London mercer.
If even the sainted Sir Thomas “used” his position, it’s hardly surprising that this load of second rate crooks are up to their necks in their own twenty first century scams and tricks!
“Severence” sounds like a good plan to me, as long as it’s not in the context of “severence pay”, but rather in the context of cervical vertebrae.
Sincerity and honesty have no place in British politics. This man has no feelings of responsibility towards his constituents and, as you can see, he is quite happy to misrepresent them in a public forum. That he will do anything to save his skin should be axiomatic even to the most partisan Tory. The man has no intention of reimbursing the taxpayer. He doesn’t care and no one is going to make him care. And the same goes for the Labour and Liberal troughers too. Only seismic change will alter this cruel and heartless plutocracy.

Sweet Jeeeeesus! What a complete twat.
DC needs to get a grip on these people – I can’t believe that Steen kept the whip after his outburst.
Thank Christ the weather is nice and less peeps around to watch the telly!
Cameron needs to act and act fast otherwise he’s in danger of going into the election 14 points ahead and losing. People like Mackay, Steen need the whip withdrawing now(not as in Steen’s case allowing him to retire gracefully at the election)and all such need to be de-selected forthwith.There is no longer any place in the Conservative Party for such people.If Cameron doesn’t act and be seen to act then he’s only hmself to blame when the electorate turf these troughers out.
This I am afraid is now too important to allow constituency associations to decide,There needs to be a few “heads rolling” albeit metaphorically into the dust.
If these people cost the Conservative the next election and Labour a win however slim then they should no longer be allowed anywhere near the Conservatibve Party in any capacity ever again. AND there are still question marks over shadow fron bench spokesmen as well that Cameron needs to address before the whole shebang goes tits up at an election !
Agree, Cameron is behind the curve on this.
Agreed. Cameron should announce now that EVERY MP will subject themselves to a re-selection process which will be open to all, not just Tory members.
It can’t be beyond the wit of each constituency Chairman to arrange a shortlist of the sitting MP plus half a dozen grass-roots Tories.
The result will be a ceremonial rejection of the shysters and an endorsement of the good guys like Adam Afriyie in Windsor next door.
On the subject of Afriyie, how must Michael Trend be feeling now? Can anyone remind me what he did that meant he alone was picked out for porking years before the rest?
R56
I think the answer is Nope.
From Wiki:
“Fraudulent expenses claim
In 2003 Trend was found guilty of abusing the allowances system and ordered to repay £90,277. He was briefly suspended from parliament and, following his deselection by the Windsor Conservative Association did not stand again at the following election. Trend claimed he “believed that I could properly continue to designate London as ‘home’ for the purposes of ACA, even though, in domestic terms, Windsor had become my “main residence”.” It was not accepted. There was no doubt in the Standard’s Committee’s minds that there was no “real scope for doubt that the words “main residence” were intended to have other than their natural meaning.”
The Committee ruled that “Mr Trend should have recognised that, by claiming Additional Costs Allowance in relation to his Windsor home, the taxpayer was meeting some of the core running costs of what was in reality his main residence. He should have realised that this was wrong. Accordingly, we agree with the Commissioner that Mr Trend was negligent and has breached the Code of Conduct by making improper use of the Additional Costs Allowance and by failing strictly to observe the administrative rules relating to the Allowance.”
Thanks Plato
So basically Trend was doing a pretty mild version of what many are now being exposed for.
So does anyone know why he was singled out? He must have upset someone.
One of the local (windsor) Liberals found out what Trend had been up to and had it reported.
171 Plato. Thanks.
I would call that a significant precedent.
Two points.
1) All they need to do is to apply that ruling to everyone else.
2) It was a public judgment and all MPs would have been very well aware of it.
Scotland Yard and Constituency Associations please take note.

He can have mine for, shall we say 300k. Its no good to me,it won’t even get me through the doors of the local golf club
As a Bracknell constituent all those long years ago after the portly William Van Straubenzee took on the next door Wokingham constituency and Andrew MacKay came in we knew it would end in tears. He has long been known in Bracknell as an oily greaseball who couldn’t give a toss. Good fucking riddance.
Best thing cameron could do was throw him and his scuzzy wife to the wolves. The Tories will never keep that seat if he is still there. Both must go and fast.
You are not radical enough to be me.
Check out last night’s HIGNFY – it exposes the double troughing of him and his wife as far back as 2007.
When questioned about it by Radio Herts Kirkbride put the phone down live on air.
Initially I thought he’d just been a bit opportunistic with his expenses, but the more I hear the more I’m sure he is shameless piglet.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00klc2t/Have_I_Got_News_for_You_Series_37_Episode_5/
It’s about half way through.
For all the money he and his wife have stolen, why is he wearing a suit two sizes too small, and a haircut performed by David Blunket.

This champion even checked into the hotel, with woman in tow, using a false name: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews/article-1186818/MPs-EXPENSES-Labours-Khalid-Mahmood-spent-2-575-staying-riot-gold-marble-silk-hotel-girlfriend.html
Note that the DT do not have an online version of this story.
I’ll have a stab at why he checked in under an assumed name here. Muslim mp checking into hotel with a woman called Cohen, hmm jewish girlfiend perhaps, me thinking that would go down like a lead baloon with certain members of his constituency. Wait til that one gets back to the local imams. Thats why he was hiding his real name.
Perhaps they were having in depth negotiations on the Israel\Palestinian problem
The Imams will have a trial for Miz Cohen, pronounce her guilty and sentence her to death by stoning (tickets can be bought behind the mosque) and then completely clear Mr Mahmood of any wrongdoing.
Under Sharia law, shouldn’t they cut off his dangly bits as well as his hands….
It was wholly innocent. They were discussing Uganda.
Under sharia law this bastard should have a full set of prosthetic arms and legs.
And the roms have jaucuzzis !!
These Labour MPs do love their jacuzzis…
But I suppose coming from Nu Labour Tribal Heartland that is normal…
He checked into the hotel with then girlfriend Elaina Cohen under the fake names Mr Khaled and Eleine Mahmood.

Perhaps she’s his Mossad case officer?
I notice that the other MP fingered in the story [Roger Berry] spent £15k on a two bedroom house – and £169 on a toaster.
I assume that is a Krupps – what a fucking joker – he claims it would last 10 yrs and would prove cheaper in the long run.
How much toast is he eating? No luxurious items eh? Shame Kaufmann didn’t buy one to go with his nine grand TV.
If the truth be known that £169 toaster was probably a Philippine girl who doubled up as a maid and the money was her wages for that year.
Come on get real.
This bloke is ‘ethnic’ and represents Birmingham.
So thats OK then.
His constituents won’t touch him.
They just voted Labour in Blears constituency in a council by-election.
They just feel more at home.
The MPs have been through the “ignore” stage; not saying anything about expenses in the hope the problem will go away.
They are in the denial stage; I have done nothing wrong, everybody is doing it, it’s in the rules, I have taken far less than I am allowed, etc.
The public have jumped straight to the anger part, and are getting angrier.
With MPs dissembling (nice old political word that) about expenses as hard as they can, they are displaying, in IMAX definition, the disconnect between public and politician. None have held up their hands, said “it’s a fair cop guv” and gone willingly.
The within the rules is defence is dead, killed by those few MPs who chose not to drink from the expenses cup. All those who did, not only need to admit it but also walk willingly. Until that happens, the publics anger with, distrust of and disgust with politicians will continue.
Mr Cameron’s show of facing up to the problem in a limited way, and Mr Brown’s complete avoidance of the problem by disappearing from view are not the solution.
That was like something from a sketch show, the Huhne was surrounded by people who looked as if they would like to string him up from a lampost and he was saying how much support he had. Are these people deluded or is lying so ingrained that lies just spew forth? It has to one of the two.
They’re used to being allowed to lie to media with no comeback. Mostly the journos don’t know or don’t care what the truth is, and anyway they’re paid enough for it not to matter.
It’s rare for ordinary punters to be allowed in on the game.

Why are we not seeing some of the labour party grilled by the BBC, seems to me when things go wrong they find a Tory MP, when things are right which is very rare nowadays, we are swarmed with Labout MPs.
Remember that Dave himself tabled the motion to freeze the licence fee. They are exacting revenge for even allowing such thought to be placed in the public domain.
HIGNFY last night was a classic.
Concentrate on Tory MPs with obligatory picture of Duck island.
Preface all Tories with “Conservative MP”
Avoid labelling “Labour MPs” as such, use name only.
Hislop could see what was happening as the host clumsily steerd the badinage back onto a Tory: “Oh, back onto the Tories” he muttered with a sheepish look.
I’ll say that much for Ian Hislop; at least he has the decency to look embarrassed at the continual anti-Tory bias.
The BBC is a propaganda front for New Labour.
Vaz has not faced his constituents, but instead wrote an article in the local paper. The article consisted almost entirely of blather and bluster and avoided all of the key questions posed to him by the local paper. Clearly, his constituents were less than impressed with his defence of his actions.
http://www.thisisleicestershire.co.uk/news/Come-Mr-Vaz-answer-questions/article-1015290-detail/article.html
another slippery bstd
Vaz is the greasyist and most vain of the all. Look him up on Wikipedia – it’s one corruption scandal after another. He should be deported. Rumour has it that he’s desperate after a peerage or knighood.
We need a Vazectomy
Vaz makes that other bastard Peter Hain look like an amateur, he has got to be the sleaziest, most self serving benefits cheat that ever crawled out of that labour shit heap. If he had done this in China he would have got a bullet in the back of his head and his organs would have gone to sick pigs (real ones) who although its not ideal would benefit.
No comments on Tory MP Jonathan Djanogly then ?
Son of multi-millionaire Sir Harry Djanogly – boss of Coats plc..only “worth £ 300 million…has fine collection of Picasso and Manets…is said to be a “jovial Jew”…
Jonathan claims £71 000 for second home in Huntindon constituency…
For cleaning, gardening and £5,000 Gates…
and “IS corporate finance parnter in SJ Berwin, well known city solicitors who act for hedgies and “private equity” …
Jonatahon Djanogly is “Shadow” Minister for Business…and speaks for the Tories on
WAIT FOR IT
PRIVATE EQUITY MATTERS
THIS IS AN OUTRAGEOUS CONFLICT OF INTEREST..
and he is a greedy little trougher to boot…
But he says he will pay back around £ 25,000
If Cameron surrounds himself with fraudsters like this who are actively working for City interests he really will lose the Election..
This is serious stuff my friends…involving billions of pounds of private equity funds…which have had tax breaks…Look at the Ronnie Cohen story…
Tax breaks organised by intense lobbying…
Follow the dots please…
Agreed
This sort of corruption going to the heart of Parliament is far more important than Nadine for God sake..
She is chicken feed…
It would be a conflict of interest if he were a minister but, as merely an opposition spokesman, I’m not convinced it is. If the Tories were to get in at the next election and he became a minister, he would immediately have to resign his other interests to avoid a conflict of interest.
The key difficulty is that in order to get spokesmen or ministers who have any understanding of the sector of policy they deal with, you have to use people with experience of that sector. Otherwise, you get – say- ex teachers responsible for police and security or ex-social workers who can’t even add up responsible for bidding for the multi billion pound Olympics. Quite a dilemma really..

And all to empty one fcuking wheely bin per week.
and they can’t get that right.
You get your wheely bin emptied every week !! we used to, then the useless local council upped the charges and made it every 2 weeks, only to boast of efficiencies.
Any twat can see that this is reducing services while increasing the costs.
All these layers of bureaucrats can only ever offer a single solution, whatever the issue is, more taxes and less liberty for the proles while exempting their own “class”.
all wrapped up in weaselly words
When I just look at Mackay, I say to myself
If he looks like a **, behaves lie a *** and speaks like a ***,
he must be a ***
That is all there is to it…
Cameron is lucky to have lost this particular aide, saving the likelihood of far worse embarrassment the other side of the GE.
What does the fact that McKay was Cameron’s adviser say about the latter? How can you have a syrup-sporting, corrup waster like that as an aide?
When I look at Mackay I think of how much the aliens of jockland have assimilated into our public life.
At least he didn’t get a custard pie in the face.
should have got a fist
a shovel
At least he had the balls to face his constituents. Unlike some.
Scamalot. This show will run and run
The show must go on…
Sadly his constituents kicked him squarely in those balls for his unbelievable cheek and lies.
Yes he is clearly deluded if he thinks people will vote for him, but at least he had the balls to face his constituency. Though one wonders if he would have done so if he realised how hostile the response would be.
Did anyone see the secret video footage of this meeting? The audience were shouting in anger at him. No way is he going to win. Bracknell is 2 miles away from me and I never seen such rage in a quiet, peaceful little town. He’s dead come election time.
Why can’t the muppet see he’s out on his ass come election, i have a feeling he does and is holding on to try and get his severence pay, he doesnt care about the party and Cameron needs to come out and say, his constituents have made it clear they want him, so he is deselecting him. Cameron has to be careful though, as a former aide, Cameron does not want this guy going rogue which I am full sure McKay would do, he seems nasty enough for it. He needs persuasion that if he doesnt play ball, the party will destroy him.
What’s happening to the lovely Julie Kirbride ?
She is even worse I am told…
McKay is taking the heat off ma Julie, who Cameron hopes will be a frontbencher when he wins the GE.
I want to see those photos of Julie…
Are they circulating yet ?
This will be fun…
Ahh the fragrant Julie:

Old Holborn is an attention-seeking buffoon.

I was cheered up some months ago to hear that he was going to close his blog in a huff and never darken anyone’s door again – following his so-called outing by Obnoxio, when in fact the silly bastard had outed himself.
He really is a prize twat, semi-literate, dogmatic, blinkered, racist, reactionary, and as you rightly say, attention-seeking. But I suppose that description could apply to most of the people posting here, including me!

Baronness Uddin with her italian marble palace in Bangladesh,House of Lords crest on the gates and servants living at the bottom of the garden – greed

Mackay is a lazy bastard who spends most of his time at his pad in the south of France rather than working but, at least he had the balls to face an open meeting of his constituents.
When are all the sleazy, thieving Labour ministers and MPs going to face their voters?
Brown has instructed his ministers and all Labour MPs to keep their heads down and their mouths shut. He’s happy to let the Tories take the flak and the BBC particularly are doing his dirty work for him.
We need a public and media campaign to get these lying Labour crooks out in to the open.
Quangos cost taxpayer £124,000,000,000 (£124 billion).

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-406763/Quangos-cost-taxpayer-124bn.html
HP sauces close to Brown says he is going to put a stop to QUANGO’s by setting up another one to see how many QUANGO’s there are.
He also wants another new QUANGO to look into more user-friendly types of QUANGO names such as BINGO’s (Big International NGO), TANGO’s (Technical Assistance NGO), MANGO’s (Market Advocacy NGO) and CONGO’s (Government Operated NGO), and you think I’m kidding, they all already exist.
This is no jocking matter. What about FANDANGOs?
Then there are DINGOs, JINGOs, LINGOs, RINGOs, BONGOs and MUNGOs.

… or £6,000 for every working adult

This was the ex-girlfriend Mahmood was checking into a hotel with and bonking and then did a number on her. Oh this one is going to run and run.
This is maybe one of the ones that was being hinted at under the hotel stuff. Mahomood deliberately hid Cohen’s name as he knew her being jewish would be trouble for him, he obviously wanted to screw her but not want constituents to find out and then made damn sure her political career went nowhere. What a piece of scum.
Me has a feeling once your constituents find out there is going to be a lot of questions.

The contrast between Tories facing the public and then being forced out, and the Labour apparatus woodenly supporting their crooked MP’s would be too stark for a media-sensitive soul to contemplate; so they will try to escape criticism by blaming the Tories as much as possible, and use this criticism to encourage their zombies to keep on voting Labour.
I am not sure that Labour MPs actually have Constituency associations. I think they select their MPs differently.
Forged signatures and five people pretending to be one hundred has been suggested.
We will have to wait and see whether the Labour Constituency Associations actually exists.
Does anybody know better?
with two “left feet”…do you find that you keep walking round in circles ????
Empty global-warming BA ‘ghost’ planes travelling all over the skies with a full contingent of cabin crew but no passengers, why? because they can keep their highly sought-after take-off and landing slots.
What’s this got to do with MP’s expenses? a lot, think about it.
Cotswold MP Geoffrey Clifton-Brown gets hammered by some of his constituents in his local paper. (read the comments following the article)
Let’s hope other local papers are exposing the greed and sleaziness of their MPs. I hear that Peter Luff is getting a particularly hard time up in Evesham.

CORPUS BRAOUWN HAS NO OPTIONS
HE MUST THROW HIS HAND IN WUN WAY OR THE UTHER
We’ll know a time of hope has arrived when we see ministers shot by their own bodyguards.
It is quite obvious to me that Andrew MacKay is a thoroughly honest man who could not lie even if it were to save his own life.
He doesn’t have a life to lie for.

When I was watching PMQs on Wednesday I noticed how weird looking Harriet Harman seemed to be. Now, I am really thinking about this, Harriet Harman Leader of the House has not made one mention about all this and she is the one that must have known it was going on and what does she do hide behind closed doors, again, we need an explanation from her, it is her duty as the Leader of the House, so, come on Harriet lets here what you have to say.
It’s not fair. I have not been able to claim anything as I am a London MP.
Are you really related to david cameron?
You never even acknowledged my letter, Harperson.
Couldn’t give a monkey’s could you?
She would have known about this;
From Wiki:
“Fraudulent expenses claim
In 2003 Trend was found guilty of abusing the allowances system and ordered to repay £90,277. He was briefly suspended from parliament and, following his deselection by the Windsor Conservative Association did not stand again at the following election. Trend claimed he “believed that I could properly continue to designate London as ‘home’ for the purposes of ACA, even though, in domestic terms, Windsor had become my “main residence”.” It was not accepted. There was no doubt in the Standard’s Committee’s minds that there was no “real scope for doubt that the words “main residence” were intended to have other than their natural meaning.”
The Committee ruled that “Mr Trend should have recognised that, by claiming Additional Costs Allowance in relation to his Windsor home, the taxpayer was meeting some of the core running costs of what was in reality his main residence. He should have realised that this was wrong. Accordingly, we agree with the Commissioner that Mr Trend was negligent and has breached the Code of Conduct by making improper use of the Additional Costs Allowance and by failing strictly to observe the administrative rules relating to the Allowance.”
Thanks to Plato.
I asked my local bent MP pig yesterday where Fake Westminster was, he replied he hadn’t a clue but knew where Real Madrid was.
OK, since you asked:
I utterly reject your patriarcho-fascist style of interrogation. What is really important is that we immediately and ruthlessly engineer the illusion of social equality by giving huge sums to any Somalian or Albanian who rocks up in the country, unable to finance a first-world lifestyle. If all British red-blooded men are imprisoned or driven to emigrate in the process, then so be it.
How’s this for an idea? Vast groundswell of public disgust at the antics of our mainstream party representatives leads to Independent candidates pledging root and branch reform of how our parliamentary system works standing in every seat in the country. The chances are sufficient numbers would be elected to Parliament, the main parties significantly weakened, and the potential for these new Independent members to hold the balance of power. Fanciful, maybe, but in the current situation a little bit of utopian thinking that keeps me from becoming totally depressed with the way things are..
No good voting for them because they claim to be ‘independent’.
We could jump from the frying pan into the fire.
They should sign up to some sort of declaration of intent or similar.
Things could really be ‘chaos’ otherwise.
The Sun reporting ministers are urging brown to go for an october election.
Well lets hope he does, and not for us to be fobbed of with any of this yes I will, no I won’t spin which we have had for the past 18 months from this labour lot.

May I draw your attention to this Labour MP who appears to be to fucked too:

All that Bollinger at the taxpayers expense has turned him in to an alcoholic.

Well if Cameron won’t do a proper clean out, he should go as well.
His hands aren’t clean – claiming for his flipping mansion – full whack whats more.
We now have Douglas Carswell in the wings.
The man who actually got rid of the Speaker, not Clegg who the lib dems are peddling as the hero of the day, and Carswell has some excellent ideas on where we go from here.
He has great leadership potential from what we have seen so far.
If Cameron won’t clean out the filth, greed and lies, Carswell is there.
PS I do not know Douglas Carswell, never met him but what I have seen on TV has impressed me and others I know, hugely.
If Carswell and Hannan and Lumley formed a their own party they would walk the General Election and have the majority seats in the house.

JOANNA LUMLEY WOOD KNOT BE SCENE DEAD WITH THOSE SUKKERS
Quack quack aaahh
Person who attended the McKay fiasco last night reports:
http://markreckons.blogspot.com/2009/05/i-think-andrew-mackays-position-is-now.html
Thanks for the link.
I blogged about Mark’s stats re safe seats vs dodgy expenses a few days ago.
There is no way on earth these people are going to admit to the fact 90% of real people actually hate them and would like to see them burnt alive or any other form of torture and death. They sit with 5% of people who are most likely there family and friends and employees and other dependants that leech off our money as well and 5% of idiots who vote for them for favours or through mental illness and think they are ok and this storm will pass.
To recognise that amount of pure hatred and revilement that let’s not beat around the bush they do deserve it would drive a normal person to suicide, No wonder they are getting pscychotherpy to help them ‘cope’ from doing the right thing as in topping themselves.
You have to laugh.
Politicians have been complaining for years that the public were disconnected from politics, now they have the public’s full attention it seems most have changed their minds.
Funny old world.
For years the public have seen potiticians far removed from the real world, you could say the two have now been reunited.
Suddenly, it looks like ordinary people can have some influence over politics. Be careful, political class, we might get a taste for it.
Given the extent of Mr McKay’s delusions – it might be better if he took up residence in the constituency – Broadmoor Hospital….
Say what you will,
his wife Julie would have been worth a good hard shagging 20 years ago
Now she just deserves a good hard flogging for being a thieving bitch.
Another thing, is this Hoon John Redwoods stupider twin?
Watching Sky her constituents are signing the get-rid-of-Kirkbride petition in Droves.
They should have these petitions everywhere.
My bit of corruption is Ann Main.
I’ll sign her off willingly
She does not live in her constituency and claims second home allowance (in a big way) for a flat in it, occupied by her daughter.
Nice one..
I think that was Milligan’s job.
Or it would have been if it wasn’t for his preference for stuffing citrus fruit in his orifices.
Foolish boy.
I don’t know whether anyone has mentioned this in previous posts but how come MacKay comes under scrutiny while his wife appears to get away with it. Totally agree about his performance last night. He and his constituency chairman clearly attempted to bend the truth behind the mood of the meeting. He looked so uncomfortable I almost felt sorry for him!!!!! Even if he is reselected he is so damaged his chances next year must be non existent.
Michael Croak was saying that Phillip Oppenheimer was likely to stand against him as an Independent, (extremely wealthy) non-troughing candidate.
Oppenheimer is extremely pro EU as I remember.
Wouldn’t touch him with a barge pole.
It must be dawning on constituency association officers that if their MP has been or could shown up to be a trougher, they have a liability on their hands come the GE. Might the knives come out behind the scenes if said troughers won’t do the decent thing and fall on their swords?
Question: What’s the connection between bankers, politicians, social workers, dole claimers etc?
Answer: No more boom & bust. There’s no more risk. Spreads narrow as risk goes away. Bankers need to borrow more and leverage up to make the same profits. Politicians don’t care about where the money comes from. The tax revenues are endless. Social workers don’t care. Government jobs are plentiful. The progressive left wing agenda has no limits. Dole claimants take their bit from the economy. Tax payers don’t mind giving up more money. Because, there’s no more boom & bust.
Now who set that expectation?
Why has no one fingered Bernard Jenkin yet.
What a trougher.
The whole extended family is at it.
He should go!
I’ve given the matter considerable thought but I still can’t work out whether Mckay is sporting a comedy haircut or a piss-poor syrup.
I know that popular opinion favours the latter, but if it is an Irish surely he would have had one constructed that at least fulfills its primary function of properly covering up his bare dome.
He’d look better if he stuck some of Julie’s minge to his rather prominent forehead but then I suppose the whiff of fish would repel decent folk.
‘Spose what really counts is the grey matter about 3″ under it, and that unfortunately, seems to be on the blink.
I think he would look better with some of Julie’s eh hum.. hair on his forehead..
But would it be the right colour ?
And would it appeal to the electors ?
It would come ready with a natural centre parting.
I just like the idea of her shaving it off.
Oh you are naughty
As the Bishop (and there any left ?) said to the actress
I actually feel sorry for Cameron
He is not a saint but not a wretched thief like so many….
But every time he tries to “clean up” another Duck House appears among his own backbenchers who clearly do not give a flying fok about either the Country, the Tory Party and their own reputations..
And who in the hell will the next PM be if not him ?
Nick Clegg – pull the other one
Lord Mandy – OMG
Boris the short hairs -get serious
Alex Salmond – FFS
or the Chief Druid Archbishop of Canterbury (never heard of razors) ?!
Names please…
It may yet work in the Conservatives’ favour. A week or so of blue carnage as the troughers of other parties – notably some very quiet Labour front-benchers – keep their heads down, can culminate with Cameron turning to Brown and saying very publicly “Well, we’ve purged our miscreants, how are you doing?”
Camerons hardly purged anything.
Yet.
He’s got to allow the constituency associations have their say… which they are. He’s stated the deal, each MP is meeting the scrutiny committee and they’re still working.
If there is anyone who is well out of order they are referred to their association and then depending on the association decision it’s either the sack and they stand down or if they won’t do that, he removes the whip so they can’t stand as the Conservative candidate, so far they’ve all stood down.
A lot better than Brown… he just makes sarky comments and singles out Blears for being expendable, but leaves Hoon who have done far worse. Blears got a ringing endorsement from her constiuency committee as did Moran. Contrast and compare.
MI5
the answer to your question is ofcourse Alan Johnson.
how do you like those apples?
as you work in intelligence you should be aware that a you don’t ask a question unless you know the answer.
you have just made yourself look very foolish.
oh, and dave cameron is a millionaire benefit cheat, a man clearly not worthy of holding the highest office in the land.
sure dave looks and sounds the part but having been exposed of cheating the taxpayer by making unecessary and extravagant claims he has ruined any chance he might have had of leading the country.
dave is dodgier than del boy.
even del boy didn’t make false housing benefit claims like cameron.
cameron is untrustworthy and so it follows that the country’s next leader will have to be Alan Johnson.
Well after listening to that guy who passed those cd’s to the Telegraph and it looks as if no money was passed,all I want to say is thanks and God Save the Queen.
Do you understand now ?!
MI5 and SAS are no longer working for Gordon “Dirty Tricks” Government
Armed Forces 100% loyal to HM The Queen and no other person
The Police are also waking up….
Very interesting…
Watch Guido’s Blog please…
Problem is how do we get H.M. to mobilise her loyal forces.
M.T.
Tricky question
But good one
They need a real leader to follow
No one in sight currently
So we are acting “independently”…
The grey men have never had any faith in MI5
Total fucking muppets, traitors and all round Hoons that fuck up and then expect others to clean up the mess that they leave.
I’m not surprised that MI5 is after this government and the hoons in it after starving them of resources and manpower since getting elected and constantly dropping shit storms on MI5 and the general public thanks to the let any mad mullah walk into the country policy adopted by all parties and leaving MI5 to take the flack when it all goes wrong.
And they’re professionally very angry about the way their intelligence on Iraq was twisted by Blair and John Scarlett.
I distinctly remember and MI5 spokesman saying on the Today programme as I was about to leave for work about a week before the invasion saying that there was no evidence of a threat from Iraq.

He has wasted his dosh.
More money than political judgement.
No need for UKIP to advertise they are going to be the benficiaries of all this shite.
I am no fan of those that cannot be mentioned but I think that barring their fat larder from the Palace knees up is slightly undemocratic. I also think that all the negative press will backfire in some sections of the great unwashed.
IF UKIP can get us a ref on Lisbon then the vote may be worth chucking at them this time around? (with the exception of those living in Dan’s constituency)
No. UKIP swan around Brussels and are totally ineffective. The only way we are going to get an election is if the Conservatives trounce Labour locally and Euroally.
I’ll bet UKIP are being funded by the government to sap Tory votes. All potential UKIP voters need to ask “who does my UKIP vote benefit?” and the answer is plainly Labour.
I could scarcely choke down my afternooon repast so dismayed was I to see this appalling spectacle.
Good Lord man you call that lying! “75% support me” Is that the summit of your mendacity! By Jupiter you are a disgrace to call yourself an MP.
You simply don’t have the stomach for it.
In my day I would have fixed the camera with a steely gimlet eye and thundered at it with Olympian authority that “Every single one of those at the meeting had not just backed me but told me in no uncertain terms that I was a God amongst men who should feel free to deflower their daughter and help myself to any of their meager worldly goods should I take a fancy to them!!!”
Then, if that impudent pup had started to protest things in the meeting had been other as I might have suggested, then, quick as a flash I would shout down this upstart and point a mighty accusatory finger while decrying him thusly “You Sir are a fifth columnist Communist subversive and what is more I have photographic proof that you are a Parsnip Fisher a trouser partridge AND a trombone paraglider!!! I arrest you in the name of King George.”
At this point uproar would of course ensue in whcih I would make myself scarce and flee the carnage in my waiting running Bentley.
This rank amateur Mackay did not even have a waiting set of wheels in which to flee. Pah!
Though I hear these days a fillie in extremis is just as likely to draw the Cameraoperator closer and speak in hushed conspiratorial tones of deadly threats from distinctly rum chaps from foreign climes trying to take over these fair isles by means of byzantine skullduggery.
Whatever works best I suppose.

Mr. Brown is having his ECT this weekend. He will re-emerge next week with a new improved smile.

Thank you for reminding me who Brown resembles… Heath Ledger post mortum.
McCartney retiring to spend more time with the champagne flutes we bought him.
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/mps-expenses/5373428/Labour-MP-Ian-McCartney-to-stand-down.html
He obviously needs one of those compulsory NHS Keep Fit programmes that Labour told us it was going to put us all on.
Eat Less Exercise More and MrMcCartneys health would improve tenfold.
But then that is also true of Watson,McBride,Balls, Whelan…. strange how they are all of the same unattractive mould.
They have done well on their £400 a month food allowance, maybe they would do even better if it were increased to £800. I checked my state pension entitlement the other day £96.33 fully stamped.
And let’s accept MTB we can’t buy champagne flutes on that – let alone the Bolly to go with it.
Nell maybe they should link mp payrises to increases in the state pension, then they would be more focused on the economy and stop intruding on our lives.
MT – what I’d like to see is them trying to live on our pensions -imagine poor Baronnes U trying to run her Italian Marble Palace in Bangladesh on that – she’d have to let all the servants go for a start!!
OHG
Never seen the piggie before……..
And did ALL these Labour MPs have to buy champagne flutes at our expense ?
Like Pavlov’s dogs ?
There is something very sick in their mentality…

Cant wait to see the publication of office and travel expenses, cos thats where the really smart ones will have hidden their cash cow.
I bet there is some real big names that are going to fall at that fence.
Lizzy
I agree Lizzy
We have only seen the tip of the iceberg…
And when will someone in the Fees Office leak what they fiddled for mileage etc ?
There have been unreceipted fiddles as well…Like the unreceipted £ 18 000 of the Chief Whip “Thug” Nick Brown..
Rurmours are already spreading about these “hidden” and clearly totally illegal expenses
The Fees Office will have to disclose all this information sooner of later the Public Outcry is so strong…
We are at the beginning of this scandal IMHO..
By the looks of what has come out so far the really smart ones have not even been mentioned yet………that is why I believe that when the office and travel expenses come out they need to be gone through with a fine tooth comb.
Certainly its on record that a certain East London MP who used to be Leader at Islington put a claim in for nearly £27,000 for postage last year.
Microscope and questions at the ready.

So does he really believe that THREE QUARTERS of the audience think his troughing was OK then? Even if he was was right that simply makes the majority of of the audience wrong!
And if he honestly believes that three quarters of the country think it’s been OK then he really does need his head looking at.
Egotistical maniac is how he came across in the film.

O/T
From Nadine Dorries blog (I think this is offline now ?)
Very interesting indeed.
I’m with Ms Dorries on this one. Frank Field would be a exceptional Speaker and, with the expectation of an imminent Conservative Government, this would be the correct choice.
Or do we simply want another NuLabour coronation as in Brown and Martin ?
“A very senior member of the Labour party has told me that the party, almost en masse, will be voting for Bercow.
It means they can do the honourable thing and vote for a Conservative and not be seen to be partisan, “because Bercow’s not really a Conservative anyway”.
He said that the reason Michael Martin had failed was because he had become isolated, he had no friends. The reason Labour wont vote for Frank is because, he reckons, Frank is already isolationist and has no friends and therefore is already out of touch with the House.
I asked him how that logic worked as John Bercow could be described as isolationist also. “Ah, yes, but that doesn’t matter because he’s a Tory”?
Eh?”
Just confirms the point that Bercow is a Mandelson Plant
But the new Parliment will vote in another Speaker..
Probably Field I would think..
So Bercow won’t have long in the Seat (with Bob’s ladder !)
Isn’t the rule that if the current parliament vote in a new Speaker (not interim) then the next parliament is stuck with him/her ?
The “rules” were broken by Labour electing a Labour Speaker when they were in power (and the second in a row)
So the “rules” should be “restored” to have a labour Speaker with a Tory government
Logical…
This is a time for new rules. Why should the Speaker have a cushy job for life whilst bullying staff and hiding corruption? Let the job rotate amongst a panel of competent chairmen, or change the Speaker annually or choose some other reasonable method which prevents a corrupt and greedy Speaker becoming such a malign influence.
Just as one Government cannot (in theory) bind a future one, one Parliament cannot bind a future one.
If they wanted to elect a speaker with a pole dance competition they could. They have the authority to re-write the ‘rules’ as we have lent it to them. They ignore ‘conventions’ when it suits them and similarly invent conventions at the drop of a hat when it is convenient.(As the ‘must alternate speaker’ one was) Their aim is to do as little work as possible.
Again and again politicians choose to get hung up on what isn’t important – the colour of the Speaker’s rosette. All that should matter is their competence. Which is why the blatant incompetence from Martin should have been stopped far sooner but it is either beyond the wit of our MPs to see further than their own party tribes or they are simply lazy.
John Bercow MP – bought and sold properties in constituency and London. Flipped. Claimed maximum expenses. Refused to say on Thursday whether he had paid Capital Gains Tax on sales – which suggests he didn’t.
Of course Labour will vote for him – he’s their sort of man.
Come on David remove the whip from this one as well.
I agree Nell
But I also think this whole mess is beyond Cameron’s control now…
The Tory Party is fast discrediting itself and its rot seems to be very deep
Sadly..
But this does create a real constitional crisis with both the main parties TKO now..
I’m not so pessimistic MI5 – constitutional crisis – yes I think it is and I wish the Queen would step in and force Gordon’s hand to call an early election.
But David Cameron could remove the whip from anyone who has fallen foul in his party because MP’s posts are always well contested – there are plenty of new people out there willing to put themselves forward for selection. He can get rid of all the old guard and all the tainted rubbish – and he should- and go into the next election clean.
Labour are nowhere near doing anything so honest – even Margaret Moran’s constituency has said they fully back her !!! The mind boggles.
I agree with you, Nell. I’m fairly neutral in my politics (used to say that if you read the DT and listened to the BBC you could make your own mind up having heard both sides of most stories) and I see Cameron acting decisively and Brown saying and doing nothing. I reckon that’s how most of the electorate will see it.
Yes – take Bercow out as a Speaker option.
Reports suggest Labour are planning to vote for “their man” Bercow for Speaker.
The man is solidly NuLabour and if this deceipt on expenses is true then that would appear to underline the point.
This appointment of this man as Speaker must not happen.
Oooh the little liar – but then we knew that didn’t we.
Pants on fire? I should coco. Pity the poor lass that has to rinse his smalls through just right now – poo tinks!
Still I’m sure that nice Mr Cameron will be so pleased with this interview that he’ll be on the phone soon to have another word with Mr Mackay . . . . . and Mrs Mackay too I’ll bet.
I hope it’s to tell them that the whips being withdrawn.
Do away withe the whips completely, every vote should be a free one, let the mps represent their constituants and not toe the party line.
Steady mate, real democracy is an alien concept to the poor dears.

WIll be standing on his £ 8000 TV and Persian carpet for Nu Labour at the next Election ?
Is Manchester Ardwick another Nu Labour Tribal Territory ?
Dont’ know the place…
Gorton – post-industrial semi-slum area of Manchester half way between the city centre and the acceptable bit of the suburbs. They’d vote for a turnip if it wore a red rosette.
They do.
MacKay to step down.
Finally. Why take so long? Idiot.
MacKay really thought he could tough it out and I’m sure he still doesn’t get it – the arrogant twat. The public meeting last night showed what a pillock MacKay really is. He deservedly had a new one ripped several times over by his angry constituents. His wife Julie Kirkbride should step down too since she is guilty of the same offence of double dipping.
I’m pleased that Cameron is dealing with Conservative troughers; it demonstrates proper leadership.
What price that useless Scottish prick Brown doing the same with the likes of Hoon, Purnell, Blears, Darling, Vaz, Moran, Gibson, Morley and the rest of the Labour troughers?
I would say about 100 to 1 against, wouldn’t you?

Not going to the garden party now then, shame wanted you to have a word in H.M. ear.
That’s why their desperate to pass the immigrant amnesty before tommorow or any other day near a GE comes lol.
After the clearout and the trials all new MP’s should be made publish their expenses on line and be self employed. That way they would have to justify their expenses to the Inland revenue like all us plebs rather than some some self appointed “independent” committee/quango/crooked blind consultancy.
Good one – agree. They should make their own pension provision as well.
Past and current MP’s should be made to repay their excessive pay, expenses and pensions. Cut them down.
you expect a labour government to use common sense and reason? and you expect brown to actually make a decision himself which makes sense instead of setting up tons of quangos at our expense with reviews/commitees 10 levels deep and then ignoring it?
that’d be nice, but it’s not going to happen while labour are there.
however, if cameron becomes PM that may well happen within a matter of days of his election.
I’m really looking forward to having a PM who actually uses reason/logic and is decisive, rather than a mad idiot who can’t decide whether to have tea or coffee without a committee review.
Brown: “I’ll set up a committee which will perform a review, then we’ll debate it all for days on end, then we’ll ignore it.”
Cameron: (looking at the list) – “that’s wrong…that’s wrong…that’s wrong…that’s ok… you go, you stay…. job done. next please.”
I know who I’d rather have in charge of running the country.
Shame about Ian Gibson…he’s actually a good MP and interesting guy…but the money and family seem to have screwed up his mind…..his ‘moat’ moment…
Another thieving trougher.
No Shame.
He won’t starve.
70+ years old and he’d lose his seat in any case.
Cynical move on his part – I’m sue Gordon is pleased at his assistance to make ZaNu look as if they are active in cleaning up the vermin.
What do you believe he would have to have done to be a “bad MP” ?
Eat his offspring ??
Good riddance to him.
meant to say, why does McKay always look as if he has a broom pole shoved up his arse…….
He can’t help it..
Just as he and Julie can’t help thieving..poor luvs
Pathological you know…
Just announced on Sky News that Andrew MacKay is stepping down at next election. This comes after talks with David Cameron.
presumably his wife will be next to go…
Well done Dave!!
Very wise move that.
If McKay has to stand down, then Julie must go too!
How will they manage now, the poor dears
well the Hamiltons soon worked out how to make a few bob….
MPs are always telling us that they could earn more in the private sector. Now is their chance to prove it.
Mr & Mrs Balls next. Poor old Crash Gordon, he will have to make a decision.
With a name like hers, there’s a good chance she could play Dreary Bahloh’s long lost sister on Corrie. Barm Cakes and Betty’s ‘Ot Pot. What more could a lady about town want?
When is his Huhne skank wife going to follow his lad?
OK guido
That’s done
Who is next ?
and change thread please !
This is moving fast now
I like the rhythm…
Or is it Pimms time ??!!
How did you know I was thinking of standing?
The country is run by unelected and unacountable quangocrats and shadowy assorted parasites, the so called MPs are just fucking window dressing and jolly expensive window dressing at that!
The UK is no longer a democracy, its laws are made by foreigners and its domestic and foreign policies are set up to benefit foreigners, the UK is almost fully in the grip of these unelected commissar overlords now and it matters not whether you vote liblabcon, they are all fully commited to the ‘project’ they are all fully signed up to fucking the people of the UK over for their thirty pieces of silver!
Thick as thieves had it right when he said the Westminster bastards have fucked us up the arse good and proper, dont expect Dave to save you cos he wont, in fact the take over will only speed up under his ‘leadership’ the next election IF we are allowed one will the very LAST the UK will ever enjoy, you true blue rinse Tories think Dave will rush into the metaphorical telephone box and come bounding out biceps bulging as ‘superbluman’ hero of the hour to save us all? Think again comrades!
See you in the camps?
The Millibands would be the perfect example to what your saying.
makay to step down at next election BBC News
Good- otherwise he would have been ousted in the election and it would have been one less Conservative MP. I am afraid that Mrs MacKay(aka Julie Kirkbride MUST now follow her husband’s lead and also step down particularly in view that her constituents have already have got a petition up to make her do so.She should be gone by Monday at the latest.Then Cameron must be equally draconian with his errant front benchers – Gove and Lansley and Wiggins – there can be no favourites.There must be a clean sweep ahead of any election.
Yeah. I’ll be glad to see the back of that creepy fucker, flipper Gove.
I note that today on Question Time on BBC Radio 4, (normally hosted by Dimbleby) whoever hosted it gave Blinky Balls an easy ride. But the host never once mentioned to Blinky about his double troughing with the boy wife, but the audience did because he was constantly heckled.
The Balls weren’t double troughing. That’s the whole point!!
Despite what fuckwits like you have been saying, they had the good sense to divide their claim down the middle and claim as if they were just one MP.
They were claiming on what was really their main residence but the Fees Office okayed it. They were at one point both claiming whatever they could get their hands on. Then it was splashed across the papers. When it was investigated by the Commons authorities they were given a clean bill of health (with the ludicrous assertion that a Sunday dinner a week oop north was proof enough their London home was their second home despite their children going to school in London) but began claiming a reduced amount.
IIRC the rule that Ministers had to designate their London home as their main residence was abolished before Yvette Balls became a minister. Handy that. Hardly in the interests of taxpayers to allow Ministers to get their (usually) more expensive home covered by expenses.
And we haven’t seen the rest of their expenses yet – office travel etc. no doubt they claimed much more there than on ACA.
There will be no worry replacing any amount of these tosspot MP’s who have to stand down inasmuch that there are alot of good people out there looking for jobs thanks to this poxy govt. Now is the time to consider a change of career.
Agreed #386
Their statements about needing to attract the best talent, comparing themselves with actual professionals who operate in a business/commercial environment is all total and utter bollocks. Their primary talents are deceit, lieing and self interest. Hardly any of them have gained any experience in the business / commercial world ie never had a proper job. Their entire world perception is from within a bubble of their own construction. 99% couldn’t run a jumble-sale stall.
This country has a plethora of real talented people that could easily do the job of an MP and bring honesty, integrity and professionalism to the role.
Real managers not political scientists or legal professionals.
We need a parliament who will deliver what they promised to secure our vote.
A team working together not in opposition, to secure what is best for THE PEOPLE.
We need patriots at the wheel not globalist elites.
We need a proper representative government.
The People need to be able to formally kick out those elected, who fail or steal
Benefits and compensation need to be under the same rules and laws that the rest of us have to suffer (if the law of the land is too onerus for the self styled elites – how do they fookin think we feel about them).
It’s a weird world where the employer (tax payers) have zero control or influence over their employees (bureaucrats at many layers) and where the employee can award them selves fantastic benefits and then exempt themselves from the general laws of the land.
There are so many aspects of everyday life that are broken, limited or priced out of the range of most people by these arseholes.
We really don’t need any more generations of professional politicians we need the entire parliamentary establishment staffed with ordinary people with experience of business and commerce, workers, managers and professionals who are actually interested in the well being of this country and it’s people.
I could go on and on but I need a drink – or better
At last we are getting seriously firm leadership in this country!
Go Cameron! Kick as much arse as is necessay to clean up the Conservative Party. Show that fat Scotch Huhne how it’s done!
Anyone on the Labour side who is exhulting in the Conservatives problems would perhaps do well to reflect.Cameron is coming across to the public as decisive and willing to take the necessaery if ruthless decisions as opposed to Brown.
In addition if the Tories have cleared out most if not all of their worst troughers and Labour haven’t Cameron will be able to make a favourable case to the electorate that HE has cleaned up HIS party whereas Brown hasn’t and in fact has some of the worst troughers and miscreants within Labour still in his Cabinet and at a very senior level too !
Labour= the do nothing party.
Effin Scotch are ALL hoons!
Neither “Dave” nor Brown nor Clegg can “save” anyone. The country needs something it has never had: democracy. Few can see beyond reform of the systems currently in place, and you won’t find discussions of such a nature on television or in the newspapers because they too have a vested interest in maintaining the status quo. Such agendas inspire the likes of Parris to defend his mates, they also inspire the idiotic comments made by Stephen Fry. As both of those two luvvies well understand, any significant changes will rob them of the protectionism that ensures their monopolies continue. The secret and shadowy nature of the UK is legendary. ANY public office is shrouded and to ask for information is to incur the wrath of a petty-minded official astonished that you might have the temerity to ask where your money is going. MP’s fought like hell to block FOI because they knew exactly what was coming if it all got out. THe BBC will ferociously oppose all attempts at accountability too. The inability to perceive that open access is a good thing is at the heart of the inability to imagine what riches change might bring to this country.
The BEE EN PEE want to scrap the BBC they said to me down when they had a stall up in town centre init like,outside greggs when we was getting some rollies for munch. Me & Tanya gonna vote for them init.
Does “he is stupid” warrant passing the moderator test only to be deleted later tell me there is a greater censorship coming from somewhere Guido?
Cameron I am told should not be underestimated.
Really? Well I REALLY WOULDN’T OVERESTIMATE HIM EITHER.
We don’t want a GE yet. We want to purge ourselves of 95% of these thieving liars.
Then we can rebuild. A GE now would save the scalps of many a wong ‘un
I only troughed £95,000 ACA
Not a word about it please, I’ve escaped scrutiny so far
Leave my mate prisky alone, I took £142,000 ACA (including the £10,000 it cost me to mow a square patch of lawn)
I’m new to Guido & this is my first post. I read Nadine’s Telegraph blog via the Google cache–but only the first couple of sentences. As a sad lifeless pedant her inability to conjugate even simple verbs depressed me. As for bleating about her nurse’s salary–what has she and the RCN done about it? I feel that she would benefit from a long holiday if not a third career as her two previous job choices seem not to have pleased her.
Welcome! You’ll find a bit of blogging very refreshing if taken in moderation.
Nadine, sadly, is learning the hard way that politics can be a nasty business. She may need an even longer holiday when her constituents express their opinion to her about her expenses claims.
There seem to be very concerted campaigns to get some Conservative MPs to resign. Has anyone checked who is organising these campaigns? Perhaps paranoid but I just wonder if certain other parties are behind some.
Dave loves it . He wants to get rid of old toffs from shires & bring in new blood. He can show up the snotgobbler by acting tough & get in reformers. He amay also have stab some pals in the back but he’s got to do it.
It’s not all good news though, we old toffs are the anti EU part of the Tory party, get rid of us and your left with the EU lapdogs and common purpose plants so baby Dave will end up buckling under their pressure from them in making any firm decisions on pulling out.
Shouldn’t you be round B&Q’s ordering a duck house or something?
Heckled and downed….

Talk about blatant spinning by the BBC, trying to present Tories as worse troughers than Labour – From that article:
The Conservatives have the highest number of casualties, including Douglas Hogg, MP for Sleaford and North Hykeham, Sir Peter Viggers, MP for Gosport, Totnes MP Anthony Steen and now Mr MacKay, who will all stand down at the next election.
Labour has seen Commons speaker Michael Martin resign and Shahid Malik step down as justice minister. Two others, former agriculture minister Elliot Morley and backbencher David Chaytor, have been suspended by the Parliamentary Labour Party.
Cameron needs to get out that little list of the Top 20 Troughers (spent the most public money over 4 years with an average amount of £430,000 each) 18 of them are Labour MPs with just 2 Tories.

Eat The Rich;
They say music is the food of love
Let’s see if you’re hungry enough
Take a bite, take another, just like a good boy would
Get a sweet thing on the side
Home cooking, homicide
Side order could be your daughter, Finger lickin’ good
Come on baby, eat the rich
Put the bite on that son of a bitch
Don’t mess around, don’t you give me no switch
C’mon baby, eat the rich
C’mon baby eat the rich
Sitting here in the restaurant
Tell the waiter just what you want
Is that the meat you wanted to eat?
How would you ever know?
Hash browns and bacon strips
I like the way that you lick your lips
No foolin’ I can see you droolin’
Feel the hunger grow
Eat you baby, you eat me
Eat two baby, get one free
Shetland pony, or extra pepperoni
Just pick up the phone
Eat Greek or eat Chinese
Eat salad or scarf up grease
You’re on the shelf you eat yourself
Come on and bite my bone
Sitting there in your hired tuxedo
You want to see my bacon torpedo
Thank you, Thank you i’m here till tuesday.
As Liam Byrne is top of the list, does that man we eviscerate and hang him first, or should we save the best till last and do something really horrible?
Dan Norris, who the fuck is he
This is a Labour trougher and if there was a masters degree in screwing the tax payer he would have it. In 2008 he was accused of trying to remove the details of his fiddles from Wikipedia – a self serving bastard of the first order.
Me and the missus could become the next Neil and Christine Hamilton, and we’re already being considered for, “I’m An MP, Get Me The Fuck Out Of Here.” “All Star Mr & Mrs” (obviously the one without the stars) and “Celebrity Cυnts Big Brother.”
We’re gonna be rolling in it, and no, mark Oaten, it’s not going to be something you can make a cheap joke about.
Now fuck off little people and eat some lard, or whatever the fuck.
He may be a troffing prat but at least he had the balls to face some voters in his constituancy.
Snot gobbler just sits in his bunker only coming out for deluded photo opportunities and his weekly statistics quoting aka PMQs.
GENERAL ELECTION NOW.
I would like to officially request that “The Beat” either reform or re-release their hit single….
“Stand down Margaret”.
I’m sure t’would sell well in loot’n
couldnt we have him Heckler and Koched rather than just heckled?
Irish jig wearing Hoon
Why dont we Black and Decker the bastards kneecaps?
The funny thing is that if he’d just admitted he’d screwed up and agreed to pay the money back then he would have been fine.
But saying he won’t pay the money back unless forced to do so, and then saying that everyone in the meeting was cheering him on when saying that, he shot himself in the foot.
I could just imagine Cameron thinking something like this while he was watching:
“You fucking idiot. All you had to do was just tell the truth, say sorry, and pay the money back and you would have been fine.”
Cameron’s got a great approach in this; anyone who uses the labour line of lying and trying to hide behind “the rules” get immediately binned. Tell the truth, say sorry, and pay the money back, then let the voters decide.
Compare that with labour where even their leader is still saying “it was within the rules” as a defence, and then hiding away.
Anyway; how come most of what brown’s claimed is now deemed illegal/immoral yet he’s still saying he didn’t do any wrong because he was “within the rules”?
By all means bin the tory MPs who bought duck islands etc, but what about Brown who spent our money on cleaning a flat that he never uses which is a stone’s throw away from his grace and favour house? And light bulbs for fuck’s sake?
I’m sorry I took £95,000 over 4 years. You see I am shadow spokesman for Cornwall but my main home is in East Herts but I need a place in town as commuting 30 miles is too far for me on a daily basis.
I can’t pay it back as mrs prick is senior in the FSA and Dave might close it down you see.
What am I to do? no Tory seas in Cornwall for me to have. I only have this seat because mrs prick was at uni with william hague (nice wedding present huh!).
Oh well let me got sucking up to the toffs so I can survive as a troughing MP. Not a word mind to my neighbour Haselhurst please ( I think he’s had it – although hope not).:)
I can’t decide whether to resign or not. Being a complete Huhne doesn’t make it any easier either.
The revealing blog from within the constituency?
Just happens to be run by the Lib Dems…
What’s the truth behind the rumour that his father was from the planet Vulcan and his mother a pantomime dame?
Did any of you see the TV clip showing Martin being “dragged” to the Speaker’s chair when he was first elected?
As he is “dragged” along the labour front bench,there is Ian McCartney nearly having an orgasm (not a sight to behold) and he actually holds his arms up and shakes them in ecstasy!
“Yes – now we have our man in the Chair,we can get loads more Oxo and Bisto for the gravy train – yippee”
