Except that he also insulted everyone’s intelligence with the “setting out his vision” excuse for cancelling the election that never was. 18+ months later, he is still here like a floater that won’t flush …

Can’t help thinking this was badly timed.

I rekon half way through next week might have been more fun.

I think this is the basic fact of the matter

All this sh*te re the dark lord and Glynnis back into the cabinet has been about one thing, holding the line until it is too late for Dave to stand any chance (if indeed he wants/is able to change the fact. Once Ireland votes yes to the Lisbon treaty it is game over. the only way out after that would be for UKHMG to renage on an EU deal. If it happens IIRC it would be a first. In the real world it will not happen. Basically we have a matter of months before it is all over

I do hope they find a cure for this dreadful illness soon. However regarding Brown, as far as I am concerned he has been obsessed with children ever since his baby girl died.It was only after his own personal experience that he bothered with them.He has lavished huge sums of money onto the under 5s whilst keeping pensioners in penury.As I stated some days ago,his government are giving money – up to £175 a week, for gymslip mothers to pay for childcare.This is absolutely scandalous. That’s besides all the other money that these ‘saints’get to look after their children.

I’d love to see Dan Hannon savaging Mandelson some time. Dan’s the only one who’s sharp as a knife and ruthless (in a good no-bullshit way) to take him on.

You have your target Agent Hannon, take him down.

Spot on Brian.

Blair can’t handle being off the world stage… his vanity knows no bounds. Obama has no time for him because of Iraq, so it has to be Europe.

Tony Benn is always trying to protect hilary, so he’s gone a bit soft in the head. Anyway he never was perfect.

As I mentioned before, there’s no fury like that of a woman scorned.

There’s an interesting chapter on Europe in The Plan (Douglas Carswell and Dan Hannon) p.61.

The Tories could pass a “Reserve Powers Act, guaranteeing the supremacy of Parliament against foreign treaties and judicial activism” (to counteract judges cherry picking from EU human rights legislation or make the law up in court — they’d say they are ‘interpreting’ it).

You can NEVER enforce a law which the people think unfair. So all their plotting might be to no purpose — and if we pulled out of the EU where would Mandelson, Kinnock et al. be then?
