+++ Jane Kennedy, Environment Minister Resigns +++
Minister for Farming and the Environment. Another Woman Against Gordon…
UPDATE : Did she go or was she pushed? Seems she was going, Gordon called to give her the hair dryer treatment / beg / demand loyalty. She refused so he sacked her / she was going anyway. Or possibly Gordon’s people first said they sacked her to put the frighteners on people, then they realised that played badly and admitted she resigned. They never could govern that well, now they can’t even spin properly.
UPDATE 11.40 : Sally Keeble, a Labour MP who is as low profile as she is loyal has just told the BBC “Gordon said he wanted more time, but there is still a sense of lack of direction. We want a credible Labour party with a clear sense of direction who can command the respect of the party and country. He’s done a phenomenal job but it is time to move on. I think those closest to him should say something.”
Another Blair “Babe” that doesn’t like Gordon?
Ooohhh it just gets better by the hour……………….
It doesn’t make any difference.
We know: Gordon’s safe now.
Labour MP’s know that if Gordon stops – for any reason – being Prime Minister, then an election will be called shortly thereafter. An election where NuLab will be wiped out. Every self-centered Labour MP will be thinking the same this morning. Why rebel, why resign dramatically, why go on TV to condemn McDoom when all that’ll do is hasten my own personal trip to the wilderness?
Gordon will be PM for as long as he wants to be.
Being a vindictive sort of bastard, if he faces a revolt he may well call an election and bugger of to the Lords. We can only hope.
I’m afraid you’re right CF. Now that they know they are going to be decimated in a general election I can’t see the PLP hastening the day by mounting a coup against Britains leading Nokia thrower.
Could be a lot of truth in that, if they replace Broon then there will be an election and a lot of Labour MPs will have to go and find a proper job (perhaps first time for some of them).
They can sit it out until next year, still lose their jobs but be paid more as MPs than they will get serving burgers at MacDonalds next year.
Indeed, Gordon has a major job of work to do before the election: to gerrymander the electoral system so Labour can win it with 20% of the votes cast, while denying the BNP any MPs with 5% of the votes cast. This complicated arrangement is going to absorb his energies morning, noon and night, but the British people want him to do it, don’t you know.
I don’t think the calculation is quite so simple. If they change leader, they can call an election in October. That gives them three months to set out their stall. At the moment, they’ll have by-elections to deal with, a party and cabinet split down the middle, a crap leader who is a liability in a crisis and no sense of direction. I don’t see that they have any choice but to ditch Brown.
I disagree. Avoiding the electorate is just like failing to turn up to court and going on the run. They can’t run forever and they need to face up to it. What people want is for a new Labour leader to get his/her front bench in order, go to the country, lose – obviously – and if they are lucky and honest they may at least be the official opposition. Their alternative is wipeout.
Only the Labour money men can force Gordon out. What little money they’ve got is going to dry up and they aren’t in a position to attract new donors; no-one’s going to fund a certain defeat in a GE. The less they spend, the worse the defeat will be.
They all know that the impetus has gone from this administration and that they need to go through a long dark night of the soul whilst the party reinvents itself. Self-interest will prompt most MPs to stay in the fold but the party as a whole can’t be happy that they’ve got to fund the ship for another year without any prospect of hope or renewal and the money men will want to get out of this sitation as fast as they can.
Watch for appointments like Sugar, more media spin, more bizarre initiatives and more internally organised affairs like the bizarre rally yesterday. Watch for a scaled down party conference, low key and low cost events designed fo high impact but only with the faithful.
And watch above all for new proposals on party funding to come before the commons in the autumn justified as ‘a response to the expenses problem’. They need money and they need it fast.
Jane WHO ?
Are you sure she’s not in the Government of some obscure Colony – Australia – Canada – Bermuda … or even the Cacos Islands
Precisely, Who indeed !
Another useless numpty in an equaly useless job?
She says that she was asked for a ‘Pledge of Loyalty’ Brown says that she wasn’t. One of them is a lying hoon – and I know which man I suspect.
Hat tip to Sky.
It’s not unreasonable to ask a minister to support the person who appointed them.
“I think you’re crap, but I’ll work for you.”
Doesn’t make sense, does it?
When was the last time anything this Government did made sense?
When they got rid of Chancellor Brown. F**k silly me they promoted him to PM. I must keep up.
Was that a ‘No Comment’ OH?
Alledgedly she joined the BMP, saying she no longer wanted to be in a fringe party!
Are the BMP the Buggers, Madmen and Perverts as opposed to the BNP (Buggers, Nutters and Perverts). As Sacha (Bruno) said “Are there any skinheads who aren’t gay?” (And why doesn’t Dick Sniffin have a head shave).
A homophobic jokes and a crank!
You must be a Tory! – newsflash – the Conservative party died a few years back after it was taken over by the EU stooges for positions on certain boards – seems you are the last to know!
Interestingly, Griffin made mention of the Voluntary Repatriation Act – this wasn’t a B&P manefest, it is actually been in existance since 1971.
Incredible, I know.
Voluntary Repatriation Scheme
Ooh Mr Crank, what a naughty boy (suggesting I am a Tory). Perhaps the truth is striking a bit close to home?
Your being to kind calling Labour a fringe party!!
And I thought the Labour Rats wanted to STAY on the sinking ship with GB so they can ride out till the general election next May and get all their £’s.
Better to screw the county and the party than lose out on an obscenely inflated salary.
It’s so sad to see people with some (very small) principles.
Sorry to be pedantic, but I think you have the words “Another Blair babe” confused with “Another ugly motherfucker” in your post.
Jesus – she has a head like a foot.
Even Peter might fancy a go at that one.
No, this is the result of taking a Nokia to the back of the skull as she was leaving the meeting
Whilst all you say is true it ill behoves a Tory to cast aspersions on Golems women given the likes of Widdi, Theresa May and the Grinch (Ann Milton)!
Theresa isn’t a woman, is she?
Wow just love Theresa’s shoes!
is gordon a closet poof ?
There’s nothing closet about Gordon’s poovery
Let’s hope he doesn’t forget to take the rope when he’s in the closet
No more than Dave or most of the Shadow Cabinet.
He used to be known as Brown on Brown – then he decided that Prime Ministerial ambition required a wife and civil partnerships hadn’t arrived.
But what substance is there to his preference for potting the brown and not the pink?
Who is his “right hand” man?
Obviously if he was he would join the BNP. He is really a closet eunoch.
Neither. McRuined doesn’t do er(l)ections.
Perhaps Gordon could follow Grasshopper!
Has anyone seen that someone has hijacked Harmans Wikipedia entry, replaced most of the ‘Harman(s)’ with ‘Harperson(s)’
Who ?
Another Giant.
Dithering is spreading from the head down. Oh dear.
“He’s done a phenomenal job”…
Que?
‘ bye then
Gone to spend more time with her farm presumably.
Sacked for refusing to give a pledge of allegiance to Gordon!
The descent into despotism is now complete!!
Mugabe hired someone who didn’t agree with him. Good god. Mugabe is more democratic than McTwat.
The first of many more today hopefully.
Rats leaving the sinking ship. Will there be anyone left by the end of the week?
Yes, me
Are you sure about that?

Will the last Minister to leave the Cabinet Room please turn out the light.
The exodus continues.
Man the lifeboats, Women and children first ?
Miliband must be next then.
Gordon is moving the deckchairs around on the Titanic today, but it was the Captain of the Titanic who sailed his ship full speed ahead into icebergs that caused the disaster, much like Gordon and the country.
Ed Balls would need a lifeboat of his own to get that fat lardy twat in.
That’s no way to speak about his wife…
Not his wife – his ego
The Millipedes have no backbones and very small testicles. Only their mouths and ears are over-sized. Perhaps Voldemort could comment on their arseholes, I would not like to.

You would however like to “concentrate on solving the Jewish problem” as you so artfully put it. You pathetic little Naziboy.
Quotations taken out of context are completely misleading as you ought to know, and probably do.
So fuck off and crawl back under your stone.
The Penguin
You said this in response to someone who was mocking the B&P and Griffin for being latent homosexuals little NaziTwat.
And you were clearly VERY upset that he was doing so.
“The Penguin says:
June 8, 2009 at 8:33 am
Why don’t you concentrate on solving the Jewish problem, you tosser?
The Penguin”
That enough context for you ?
Or will you try and weasel out of it again ?
There is a jewish problem? Oy ve.
You’re a moron.
The posting I was responding to was in the fake (?) name of Tony Blair, who is I believe supposed to be solving the Jewish problem as envoy for the 4 so-called super-powers.
So your point is?
The Penguin
Nice attempt at weaseling but no dice.
What “Jewish problem” would this be specificaly? How very revealing.
Why not just solving the Middle East problem ?
Why all the vocal support for the B&P in the self same thread ? Revealing.
Why get so upset with a joke poster just because he’s mocking Nick Griffin for being a homosexual ?
My point is you are a Nazi weasel who’s only just though this excuse up well after the fact as after that post there are only pathetic threats of violence and gutless posts referring to jewish names names when you were called out for it. You certainly didn’t mention it at the time did you ?
You are a weasel, Little Naziboy
Nobody could make the case that she was “window-dressing”, poor cow. Has anyone got Brenda’s mobile number; I think it’s time for a summons to the Palace.
Window dressing for an undertaker’s shop.
Harman “the leadership is not in turmoil”
Of course not, there is none!
Harman…we shall fight them on the beaches we shall never surrender.
Would that be Obama beach?
” We have destroyed 8 million billion gazillion tanks!”
“Chemical Harpie” bleats again !
….without a single shot being fired….
Never knew we were even at war with Gazillia!
Harman: “The leadership is not in turmoil – Gordon is doing exactly what Lord Fondlebum of Boy tells him.”
Of all the weaselling toadies that comprise the Labour Party, Harriet Harman comes right at the top of the tree.
As a woman she really should know better, which makes it all the more revolting.
Agreed. best bit is that Mandleson is briefing against her saying it would be a disaster if there was an election cause she would win. What a total twerp she is.
Where’s Yoda when you need him to help make sense of these statements?
To No. 10, a summoning he had, and been eaten by the PM, for a bogey mistaken he was.
the turmoil leadership not in is?
Look, use the false (eye)
Excellent news. We’ll soon have enough ex-bints for a 2012 hockey team. Horray!!!
AH (C)
Rugby team, more like.
Gurning team perhaps ?

They could take on the Widdi 15 except that it would be somewhat unfair given Widdis past as Gareth Chilcott.
Labour now claiming she was “sacked” for refusing to pledge loyalty ! lol
So, are Brown, Mandy and the Chief Whip are working their way through their MPs to preempt a rebellion tonight?
If so they’re more likely to crystalize the rebels into some form of coherent structure – start a stampede – force the fence sitters to make a choice… (insert weak metaphor of choice…)
Plus, I bet Brown went mental at her – she’s probably got a Nokia in her head.
No 10 looks very buisy this morning, constant stream of people in and out.
Pickfords (we hope….)?
That’s even more newsworthy then – good on her for not pledging!! Democracy??
If I was her I would leave the party whilst I was at it for demanding such a pledge.
At least they will be able to take all the tampax machines out of the bogs.
No point in Durex machines in the mens’ bogs either.
Oh yes there is. Condoms help to stop Aids being passed from one arsehole to another. The Ponce of Darkness has a private supply.
Paid for by us no doubt. Wholly necessary for the conduct of his parliamentary business. Like Prescott.
Not true – what would a certain Shadow Cabinet member use for internal carrying of white powder?
Pray tell! A hint at least
I think Mandy will insist they keep that Durex machine in…
Those were HRT dispensers.
So, let me just check – I’m to remove the tampons from the ladies, but leave the manpons in the gents for Gordy & Mandy to plug up their bloody pipes??
Righto boss, I’ll just finish my cuppa & I’ll get right on it.
Put the tampons in the gents, please !!!
How long can Harpicperson go on spinning the line that everything is fine with Team Titanic?
Overpromoted bimbo quota fillers leave twat socialist party – no surprise there.
Blair’s Babes are now WAGs – Wimmin Against Gordon.
Better Harman in with Brown gone & Mandelsnake neutralisd than Glove Puppet Brown in with Mandelsnake’s controlling hand. I reckon Mandelsnake is positioning himself to become ‘the one’. Vary bad day for the country if he manages it.
Get the knitting out folks, the tumbrils are rolling!
Anybody left from the Blair Bitch Project ?
Aw.
Sky News showing an interview with Jacqui Smith at the moment.
No, not that Jacqui Smith, this Jacqui Smith is a teacher’s leader. How unfortunate is that!
Maybe she should change her name to Mrs. Richrad Timney? No, not that one, the one with the talent.
Where does she live?
Never heard of her? Has she ever done anything? How many more non-entities are on the payroll.
She made Gordons tea.
Thought that was Flint ?
McTwat:
“These chunky biscuits are very nice err…..J…Jackie. Crunchy on th’ outside, smooth and creamy in the middle. Did ye bake them yersel’?”
Boots:
“No, they arrived in a jiffy bag with an HoC label and a Winchester postmark.”
See 47 below
We had her in Northern Ireland for a while. She made the politicians here look good…thats how bad she was.

ian @ 10:19
Lol, “Swear allegiance to King Gordon!”
Jeez, you couldn’t make this stuff up.
It’s all very well ZaNuLab rattling on that if they change leaders there’ll be a GE sooner rather than later and better leave Gordon where he is.
What about the bl**dy country?
If he stays, this bickering “is he or isn’t he” (no, not Harmony for those who remember) staying as leader.
Meanwhile the country burns.
“Swear allegiance to King Gordon”
Do you think they have to kneel and kiss his ring?
I think you are confused – Gordon has to kneel and kiss Mandelsons ring (apparently Labour have pinched this old Tory tradition honed in the common rooms of Eton).
Exactly my thoughts Anon.
If he’s ringing round all the junior ministers though, he will need a stack of phones….
I think the plotters would actually be better advised to pledge loyalty, get him to announce the reshuffle and go, one after the other the following day or two!
If they follow Flint’s example they will all be denying him tomorrow.
Even from Brown’s point of view this is totally wrong-headed.It’s the old Caesar question-those who aren’t against me are for me.Why put waiverers on the spot?
Let’s hope Jane’s resignation is the first of many. The PLP meeting takes place tonight and I hope many backbenchers will show their lack of confidence.
I’ll be the whips are working overtime today.
She was junior DEFRA minister in charge of Bovine TB in badgers – her main interests are reading and running
and resigning..
But sadly, like every Labour MP, not ‘rithmatic.
What with a new Downfall video over on Dizzy’s site and now this, what a great start to the week!
so the party faithful wait for the lazarus moment, by making sure it can’t hear any dissent? beaten in wales, beaten in scotland and destroyed in england(apart from the geordies? must be something about backing losers up there?) would someone please tell gordon it’s over? no matter what? does he really want to go down in an even more humilating way, than simply resigning?
We must take Johnson’s assertion that he can’t do a better job than McDoom, and would be happy with a junior cabinet job at face value.
I do not want a postman who has scaled the greasy pole at such a corrupt, venal, third rate, anti-democratic institution as the Labour Party to be let anywhere near No10, other than to deliver letters.
We can be sure the ‘Government’ is is a state of breakdown if Angela Eagle merits a promotion.
Even by the standards of the PLP, Ms Eagle is truly a conviction free, believe in nothing, party drone.
Witness her last minute change of heart on what was such a ‘matter of principle, Tuition Fees.
Well, we can expect a replacement in the vein of another unelected Lord … so who’s left from the donators who hasn’t been enobled?
Baronness Uddin would hbe a good replacement
Michael Foot has announced he is ready to go into the House of Lords and says he would like to replace Darling if he steps down.
THAT’S MIIIIINE !!!
“We must take Johnson’s assertion that he can’t do a better job than McDoom,….”
You can bet Cameron will!
There are plenty of rats deserting the sinking ship, but what do you call a rat that jumps onto a sinking ship?
kinnock
Suger
Sorry – Sugar.
You’re a lightweight, you’re fired!
Yesterday evening Dimbleby on BBC Euro results show asked GlenysKinnock – “Do I call you “Baroness Kinnock” ? No Glenys will do David ! Surely can’t be long before it’s “Sir” David ? Apparently she was “quite surprised” to be offered the job as Europe Minister she thought it was Rory Bremner at first !
Baroness Dimbleby
Dame Davina Dumblebore DBE
If there was money in it Glenys would have taken a job as a ‘comfort woman’.
Believe me, there’d be no money in it if she was all that was on offer!
A lemming
Among the responsibilities Kennedy had was “Minister for the horse” and that is from DEFRA website. I thought that was Anne Windsor, assisted by M Beckett
See 47 above
I thought Margaret Beckett was Minister for the Horse?
When she goes to the Lords she’ll be “Uglystick in Waiting”
Lord Beckett of Aintree & Cheltenham
she looks like a horse
She goes like one too…
Are you sure of that title; More likely to be ‘Minister for the horse manure’.
is a statement to follow, or do we just get the briefings against?
Every time I see a government spokes person talking on TV over the last week I can’t help thinking that in retrospect comical Ali seemed firmly grounded in reality. If i hear anyone else say “we’re getting on with the job” just once more I won’t be held responsable for my actions.
Q/ What job are they getting on with?
A/ Destroying our Country & making a bunch of Nazi’s look more credible than themselves(mind you NuLiebour are a bunch of facists too)
Don’t forget the mantra “What the Public want” which I find unbelievably grating and has been just as repetitive.
and “the message im getting on the doorstep is…………………”
The message they got on one doorstep was “Oi, you! Is there a sign on my door saying ‘Please push excrement through my letterbox’”
‘… fuck off of my doorstep..’
How true, Fletch. I had to resort to the gin bottle yesterday when Tessa Jowell went off with the fairies at lunchtime claiming that the country held Brown “in affection and respect”. FFS.
How very downfall of her
Just heard another party troll saying the exact same thing on Radio 5 – do you reckon they all get a daily email listing the quotes of the day to spout off?
Gordon Brown now accusing Jane Kennedy of lying.
How low can you go Gordon?
ex Guardian
“Jane Kennedy, the minister of state for the environment, however heaped more pressure on the prime minister by refusing to sign a pledge of loyalty. She was sacked as a minister in the reshuffle of junior posts.
“In the end I could have stayed if I had given that pledge of loyalty,” Kennedy told Sky News.”
I thought ministers pledged their loyalty to the Crown. Is this yest another case of L’état, c’est Brun.
As low as Mangledbum’s ringpiece.
Er, as you can see, I can go lower than whale shit in the Antarctic Ocean
Could she be the first principled labour minister for twelve miserable years to resign for a failure in her department ? – The cow butted Blunkett but failed to finish the job !
Could we borrow the cow for Gordon?
No. She’s smelled the coffee and is thinking what might be the best way to retain her seat.
The rebellion has no chance as there is no obvious person to take over as Leader
Oh, hang on, Elephant In The Room Alert – what if that nice Lord Mandelson kindly steps in as ‘Caretaker” for a month/year/decade or two?
It’s possible I suppose.
Did you see him on Andrew Marr? As smooth as snakeshit but he still came across as a poisonous old poove.
Slight problem there, old bean, as Mandy sits in the Lords. Although constitutionally possible, nobody has seriously thought about having a PM sit in the Lords since Lord Salisbury, so Mandy would probably have to give up his peerage and submit himself to a by-election somewhere, and I wouldn’t want to be on him winning.
Lord Hume??
So long as there’s a Deputy PM (step forward Ms. Harman) in the Commons you can construct an argument for it.
Anyway, doesn’t Mandy have the power already? Wouldn’t it suit him to keep McMental on as a puppet while he stands in the shadows?
My bet is on Vaz as next leader. He seems to be able to slide into any postion with ease.
Brhoon’s appointing Handelsman as ‘First Secretary of State’ is rather like Hindenburg appointing Hitler as Chancellor in 1933. Just sitting back now waiting for Brhoon to be toppled then Mandy will declare himself Fuehrer and Reichskanzler.
Handelsman is effectively ‘running’ the ‘government’ as it is anyway.
After the General Election, shouldn’t there be a “truth and reconciliation commission” to reveal exactly who did what and why?
No point. It’s the Tyburn Jig for them laddy
Agree. Then “necklace” those found guilty.

Sky say PM sacked Jane Kennedy, that would be Peter Mandelson of course.
That’s Ruth Kelly, surely?
An interesting point was made on Sky last night.
Glenys Kinnochio – our new minister for europe (aren’t we lucky?) – cannot be both a UK govt minister and an MEP. There are rules to that effect.
However, if she resigns her MEP mandate before it expires on 14th July she loses significant amounts of pension benefits.
Therefore she seems to want to be trying to hang onto that until 14th July whilst being some sort of “acting” Europe Minister.
Question is – is she an MEP OR is she a minister ? She cannot be both.
Since when have Labour played by the rules, most of the cabinet are unelected as is Brown.
Whatever her current status, Mrs Welsh-Windbag will be like all the rest – noisy and totally ineffective.
not true – her husband got rid of the audit whistleblower in Strasbourg. No doubt she will b required to do similar in Westminster. Explains why Dodgy Dave is so keen to see her in place.
She’s Back as SE England’s UKIP MEP.
Like a fart in a collander.
It’s a fucking troughing dynasty
But my name isn’t Dave, Del
She’s probably thinking old style. What I lose on pay and benefits, I’ll make up on exes.
Am I missing something.
Didn’t it only become apparent that the odious Ms Flint resigned mid Thursday afternoon during the live conference, then Mrs Kinnock took over the same position almost immediately ?
Does that mean Brown had a ready made substitute as he goaded Flint into resigning ? Kinnock’s name, like Flints, was not on the list of “wimmin in the Cabinet” that he read out live on air.
What’s the story ?
Bet she draws both salaries.
this brown v all women thing is becoming a real problem for him.
http://fsn.typepad.com/blog/
What will happen when he runs out of women? Will Brown have to kerb crawl to fill some posts?
Fondelbottom will install some lady boys he Knows.
Nice one!
Yvette?
At least shes got balls.
BBC: “Sources say that sisters Maria and Angela Eagle are to be promoted to ministers of state. ”
On the one hand we’ve got a shadow cabinet mostly made up of people from just one school, and on the other hand we have a government where, it seems, the qualifications for membership are marriage, blood relationship or birth in or around Glasgow.
You might naively think that in a country with 60m inhabitants and an allegedly functioning democracy, that our top politicians would be unrelated, went to different schools and were a little less Scottish. But then, you would be naive.
A pair of raptors in Government. So what’s new?
Government of “all talons”.
Dear Mrs Miggins
From memory the Eagle sisters were very anti-hunting – LACS RSPCA etc – to appoint one as the replacement for Jane Kennedy would upset (to say the least) the farming community
Since when have LieBour had any interested in those toffs who live in the big parks.
Which one’s the lezzer, I can never remember. Is Postman Pat the only straight left in the Cabinet?
Johnson’s LGBT too. He just dosen’t know it yet.
He’ll find out after his first private meeting with Mandy. That’ll wipe the smile from his face.
So naive. Given that incest is a Scottish spectator sport and they recognise each other by the sixth digit you can hardly expect them to be unrelated.
http://library.thinkquest.org/C0112205/stalinsrussia.html
A Totalitarian Government
A totalitarian government is one where there is only one party allowed – the ruling party. In Stalin’s Russia this meant that the Communist Party was supreme. All criticism and opposition is eliminated. The people are expected to be totally loyal to the state and to the person at the head of the government. Stalin ruled as a dictator, commanding his people with absolute power. He conducted many purges against his rivals and introduced a new constitution which reinforced his power. The secret police and even a cult helped to build up his image and keep him in power.
Frank Field will be the next to go then?
If the tories have any sense they would get Frank Field to cross the floor and sort out the benefits system – to put into place his original plan, the one vetoed by snotty when he was Chancellor.

Biased BBC shows number of seats for every UK party apart from … yes, you guessed correctly:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/shared/bsp/hi/elections/euro/09/flash/html/eu.stm
Are you accusing “Brown Bradcasting” of manipulating the results?
It’s probably just an oversight (yeah, right)!
It was an inadvertent accounting error,of a similar type which caused Geoffrey (CLINT) Hoon mess up his property flipping claims.
BBC = Bolshevik Broadcasting Co-operative
Aren’t the BBC alligning the UK parties with their (near) European equivilant i.e. Labour are ‘Socialists’?
Yep, it is by political grouping. Tories are in the No Group category since they left the EPP presumably, as are the far right.
You couldn’t make it up. I followed the link thinking you must have got it wrong even the BBC arn’t that crassly biased. Enough said.

Excellent. Dan the Man is an MEP for my constituency. I emailed him (Write To Them) after his YouTube clip was such a hit and he sent me a very nice reply.

Never heard of her. How many bloody ministers do these idiots have?
Do you think maybe even she has not heard of herself?
This is the woman who launched the campaign to save the bees: ‘Healthy Bees’, a plan to protect and improve the health of honey bees in England and Wales.
Apparently bee numbers are falling faster than Labour party supporters.
The bees were fine until Grim Gordon wished them the best of luck.
He found out most bees were female.
Silly as it may seem to some, bee health is a serious problem that could (if not fixed) lead to massive food shortages.
Until recently, this has been ignored by the government, but under pressure from the opposition and scientists some more money has been grudgingly allocated to boost research.
Just hope it’s not too little, too late…
Gordie will appoint a bee Tsar – (say it fast)
Very true, Dr Feelgood, and well said!
However this government has, since 1997, set out to destroy agriculture and everything associated with it in some kind of warped “class struggle”. The fact that most people on the land work bloody hard, day and night, in all weather for very little return in order to put food on people’s plates is irrelevant to this bunch of creeps.
To give due credit, the British Bee Keepers’ Association was at the forefront of trying to convince this bunch of ignorant socialists that the bee problem was becoming desperate and had to be addressed if we wanted to have anything to eat in future.
I think you will find that your daily ration of Soylent Green will provide adequate nutrition citizen.
Plenty and don’t forget the all the “envoys” too – half the PLP has a job or patronage of some kind to enhance their status within the “grateful” remaining Labour hinterlands of Britain
With all these resignations and lost councillors, I think Labour are going to need a new theme song come the next Conference.
So…in the spirit of comradeship, I’ve written one for them.

Funny you should mention that – I’ve got a version of that already written, but am saving it for a special occasion.
D
Can’t wait.
I think it should be something more like:
The Doors – ‘The End’
I would favour Elvis Costellos “Watching the Defectives” if Dodgy Dave had not already appropriated it in case he keeps Oik as Chancellor.
What, only one minister resigning today? What a disappointment.
The day is young.
The day is yet young. Plenty of time for another hoon or f*cking kinnock to go yet. JD.
Thank you, Wales.
Thank you, Scotland.
North East ? Mmmmm. There’s a lack of understanding in some areas of the UK.
Was the Reformaton only for other people ?
Thank the Lord.
Be fair to the North East, they are not like the rest of us (descended from walrus to provide the blubber needed for their climate, electing Mandelson – he has just been imposed on others)
It was only the Monkeyhangers (the good folk of Hartlepool) who elected Mandelson.
This spawned the joke that on visiting the constituency of the Codheads he went into a chippie and asked for “some of that guacamole” which was actually mushy peas.
But it was a bullshit story. Mandelson has never been to Hartlepool and besides, mushy peas is something they eat in Yorkshire, not Durham.
Yes, the guacamole story wasn’t true. Actually he asked for a saveloy and a pound of lard.
Divvunt tar us all with that shite! You can divide the North East into 5 tribes, broadly speaking. There’s the Geordies, a proud race that filled the world with engineers and craftsmen, 20,000 of whom assembled on the Town Moor to hold back the Jacobites for King George (hence the name “Geordie-boys”), but who are now a feeble shadow of their former selves, laid low by de-industrialisation and 40 years of crap education and easy benefits. There’s the Mackems, who would vote Labour even if they bit the heeds off their bairns. There’s the Tykes and Poolies in Teesside, whom even the Geordies and Mackems look down on. There’s the rural folk – a strange mixture of interbred hill farmers and ex-miners who tend to regard the modern world and its flush lavatories with suspicion and resentment. Finally, there’s all the immigrants, and by this I mean everyone born outside the North East, who take the plum jobs and tend to vote Labour because that’s why they came here from the Home Counties in the first place. So you see, we’re not like other folk. One day soon, we will see that we’ve been voting fodder for Labour and there will be a backlash, unless the Toon get promoted next May, in which case all will be right in the world.
Of course tha Toon will get promoted next season and will win the European Championship the season after that, and then will become the first club to win the World Cup. Deluded, deluded!
Even Gordon Brown is more realistic than you lot.
Actually the first club to win the World Cup was West Auckland in sunny County Durham. Check it oot.
“and then will become the first club to win the World Cup”
Too late, the Hammers did that in ‘66…
She has been forced to resign because her highly trained team of Friesans failed to finish off Blunkett when they had the chance.
The Penguin
She certainly hasn’t resigned because she revealed how much of a Nazi twat she was by wanting someone to “concentrate on solving the Jewish problem.”
Unlike YOU.
I think most people in the South of England disagree with Hitler’s stance on jews but are far more sanguine about his policy on dealing with gypsies.
Ignorance such as your must be such a relief. Except to your parents, of course, who were presumably hoping for better.
The Penguin
North East and to some extent Yorks & Humber the “pin a red rosette to a donkey” syndrome is still alive and well
Twatty Naziboy syndrome is also alive and well since you want people to “concentrate on solving the Jewish problem.” Fuckwit.
Please disregard last post “Be Gone Gordon”
That should clearly have been for The Penguin.
I too am dismayed by such blind tribalism in the North East but on the bright side they are being smashed everywhere else.
Almost no hiding place left for them anymore.
Only a tiny rump and shrinking core vote for the Hoons.
No problem
Given the voting results and the level of turn out, it means that, outside London and its festering welfare boroughs, across the whole of the South of England, less than 1 in 25 eligible voters voted Labour in the euro elections.
Has any mainstream party ever fared so badly as to register less than four per cent of the vote across such a large portion of the country?
… and still they try to suggest this is a message to “get on with the job”. The only job they need to get on with is shooting themselves in the head!
I find it shocking that people impugne our Prime Minister with the scurrilous aspertion that he is a shirt-lifter. Surely there is no evidence of this.
Is there???????????????
No more than there was on Jeremy Thorpe, Lord Mandleson etc etc were.
Until the closet door was opened.
Then it is always said “everyone knew anyway and there were rumours for years – so no surprise there”.
So… no surprise there !
He’s a lifter.
I always thought he might have something on Blair, which is why he kept on being brought back.
Mandleson – I meant.
I actually heard on Today this morning that if one more minister goes, GB has to go.
nope.
I suspect that assertion assumed some sort of integrity on GB’s part, which is not a good assumption to make. He has to go under only 2 circumstances: enough Labour MPs discover some cojones and make him go (my cat has more cojones than the lot of them put together, and that’s after we took him to the vet) or he loses a general election.
The first of those will never happen, and we have to wait a whole fecking year for the second. Given that he’s not going to go unless he absolutely has no choice, I think we’re stuck with him for another year.
How depressing.
It would appear that the only Cojones in the cabinet belong to women. Bring back Estelle Morris, they need education!
Liebore still blaming the defeat on the expenses scandal when, in reality, we all know a huge % of the disaffected vote was because of McMental.
If Milliband had any balls he’d stand against him.
Yes, there would be a GE, yes they wouldn’t win. But Dave’s majority would be much much lower if Milliband were Liebore leader. Possibly a hung parly.
Still. that presupposes that anyone still left in the inner-rectum of Brown’s discredited circle has balls….. and we all know the answer to that one.
Miliband, balls?
Bananas!
Lord Mandelson confiscated the banana, poor little Davina never got it back.
Hattie Harridan in denial.
(Resplendent, once again, in that very fetching giraffe dress)
Feeling the pinch and a result of browsing in local charity shop, perhaps.

She’s got some neck.
Note to myself:
Don’t go out shopping for clothes after having a couple of glasses of wine at lunchtime.
Little Britain? Lord Mandlebum of Fondleboys will soon be the only woman left in the cabinet.
Lord Mandelson is an activo, the other little sissies are his bitches, though I cannot confirm the rumour that he once lost his wristwatch up Davina Milipede.
I’d like to know if there’s any substance to the suggestion that Gordon Brown is a homosexualist.
Can anyone point to anuthing. It has the ring of truth, the public should be told. Maybe that’s why his finger nails are so short?
The skeletons, I mean fingers, are in Mandleson’s closet.
You might think it would be funny if he did jump too low in the leapfrog but as a ‘gentleman who is good with colours’ myself I have to say that he is just not attractive enough.
You don’t think he asks nicely do you? If you are in the cabinet you know you are going to get a red box and there’s no point complaining. Of course, that doesn’t include those strange creatures who smell vaguely of anchovy paste, he could never get the hang of them at all. Still, he’s got rid of most of them, apart from that Eagle girl who wears a dinner jacket and smokes a pipe, she’ll fit right in.
If Gordon doesn’t get the message after the worst Labour election result in history, numerous resignations and plots against his leadership, being held responsible for Iraq with Tony, letting the BNP gain power, losing a whole country like wales, Scotland and England, being marked as a deadman by the sisterhood and destroying the pound and the UK economy by giving the public sector and the banks all the money generated by the private sector…
It’s time to make that phonecall to the nice men in white coats for his own personal good and mental well being. With extra rubber wallpaper.
The Prime Minister is getting on with the job, because it is the right thing to do.
Minister for the Environment has the flooding portfolio….so thats the UK fu**ed.
Best we can hope for is a few more resignations today before the backbench meeting tonight. Will jilted Ed. have the Balls to do so? Brown will bluster his way through the meeting. Labour backbenchers so spineless they will cave in, the go now e-mail seems to be all but buried. The lot of them knw the game is up so why not milk it for all its worth. browns pledge that all expenses over the last four years will be examined within weeks is clearly rubbish. Who will do it? Not even expensive pricewatercoopersecondhouse could do it in time. Annual Westminster expenses bill only £93 million, a drop in the ocean, just print some more.
Normal service has been resumed. If there were any doubts about Gordon continuing as Prime Minister they were dispelled yesterday.
Once the police announced there would be no prosecution of fiddling MPs, normal troughing rules have been resumed. The evidence? A DWP advert announcing that benefit fraud was theft was transmitted yesterday.
While there was a chance of MPs being brought to book for their fiddling there were no DWP adverts ( just in case anything went wrong, unfortunate comparisons etc.). Now they do not care again.
The police and CPS have been brought back “on-side” and there is nothing to stop the Labour party doing whatever they want to. This includes not bothering to understand the reasons for Nick Griffin’s election.
Another year of government spending at the current rate and throwing increasing sums of money ( EU contributions) at Europe for the increase in MEP’s salaries are accelerating the UK’s arrival in the dustbin of history.
Scorched earth is an understatement.
Read it and weep.
CPS : Can’t Prosecute Socialists
Criminal Protection Service
Oh so very true!
Why do they prattle on about expenses being the problem? Far more crap was thrown at Conservative MPs and UKIP had their little fraud problem.
There’s only two choices, they know they telling porkies to the rest of us but can’t get out of the habit – this is bad but understandable. Or, they really believe their own message, which in the current circumstances sacres me to death, two generations will have to pay for this clean up and who is going to keep me in the syle etc?

Perhaps a subconcious yearning for the real thing ?
Meanwhile, back in the real world, the pound and the FTSE are both falling.
Labour cowardice and a collapsing economy are about to collide.

Van fucking tastic! Now I can concentrate on carting that Luton van plant off to the Urals, all paid for by German taxpayer money! Van fucking tastic! Washwood Heath, B’ham? – never heard of the shithole!

I’ve always taken the “BBC is biased towards Brown” line on Guido to be a bit extreme and unfair.
OK, I was wrong.
The scales fell from my eyes a few minutes ago when I read an account of Broon’s photo-op in East London that Guido mentioned over the weekend.
It’s…*gasp*…it’s…*gasp*…it’s…fucking shameful, that’s what it is.

Best story so far today:
Flint called Brown a Fucking Bastard. Ah, she can strip in the Observer for me anytime.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1191557/Caroline-Flint-foul-mouthed-f-word-rant-sexist-Gordon-Brown.html
She might have more credibility if she’d spent less time posing and flashing her legs in the papers and actually did her job. What did she do in Europe?
You didn’t like her legs then?
Give me window candy over Presbyterian moral compasses any day.
Legs like tree trunks actually.
Nice shrubbery though
Legs like a gelding. Would I say no to having them wrapped about my neck? Probably not.
She is fitter than most, but a shite Europe minister. She was shite as housing minister before, running from Eco town protesters, and showing her cabinet notes to the press.
Of course with a gag in, and a few leather straps it might be fun for a while…
She didn’t read the Lisbon Treaty when Europe Minister. That’s pretty impressive.
She talks dirty. Love it. Come to the Ratster, baby.
“But it was also revealed the Labour MP was persuaded to tone down her resignation statement by friends and remove words like ‘devious’ and ’sexist pig’.”
She’s dropped the stilletto and gone for a no nonsense 45 inch machete.
Don’t buy it.
Why would Smith and Blears give any help to this woman ?
She stabbed them both then tried to prostitute herself for her own benefit.
When it didn’t work she played the female card. Mandrist cow.
I detest Brown but she is on an even par.
Over-promoted and an amateur in politics.
RIP
Ha ha ha ha ha – well done Caroline! Gordon you’re a fucking bastard!
In the name of God, GO!
I always find that such women in high dudgeon benefit from a good stiff talking to.
There’s a bizarre sight of a Labour MP for Northampton taking sense on the BBC. How has she survived in Labour?
By keeping her head down?
By lying around in shop windows?
By making the tea
Kate Hoey on Sky:
“Gordon Brown is not a very good communicator, hasn’t come across very well, and has made some very wrong decisions.”
Sounds like she needs retraining Gordon. Perhaps a few months working at the Brown Bullshit Corporation will help her doublerightthink.
Stand by for the Bunker smear operation to swing into action….
If his ONLY fault was being a bad communicator then I think we’d all be happy.
THE wrong decision was that you, Kate, together with the rest of The Party inflicted this incapable, immoral, incompetent liar on our nation without a word of protest.
Kate Hoey is one MP I do listen to.
She talks a lot of sense, seems a very reasonable person and speaks her mind regardless of who it upsets – just what you want as an MP.
It’s just a shame that she is a lefty – other than that, I have lot of respect for her.
I am certain that for the last month the Government has been under the control of a thousand geeks with joysticks who think they have been playing World of Warcraft.
If only, my lvl 80 DK would pwn his a$$
In the EU elections voters moved away from Labour, but they didn’t move to the Conservitudes or WEKIP.
WAHAYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!
You’re late, sucker!
You lot are too easy,
Nationally Conservitudes up 1.0%, over 2004.
Remember what happened in 2005.
The country returned 346 Labour MPs, 208 Conservitude MPs and 67 Limp Dumbs.
Labour’s best assets are George Osborne and Ken Clarke.
So what you’re saying is that yesterday’s results were actually a GOOD THING for Labour?
Fuck me you should get a job for the BBC.
Hey wanker, After the County Council elections Labour have more Members of Parliament than Councillors, interesting huh?
The results were a disaster for Labour.
Labour suffered huge damage but the damage didn’t come from the Conservitudes.
The results were not good enough for the Conservitudes to give them a confident run at getting a majority in a General Election.
Go back to bed Dolly. I’ll bring a new bottle round later.
The damage came from the disallusioned voters.
Gordon Brown a man of destiny
That destiny is to kill the Labour Party
Keep in him in place- the longer he avoids the voters the more they will punish and for longer
OK where ever the damage came from the votes Labour lost didn’t go to the Conservitudes and that is the problem for the Conservitudes in a General Election.
If it isn’t, what is it?
You’re on the same drugs as Broon! Bloody barking you are.
It’s the differential in a first past the post system that counts ( 29 v 15 ) and the fact that conservatives are winning votes in new areas – Wales, North West, Midlands instead of piling up in the South East
For labour as I thought the big bastions Scotland, Wales , Geordie land are cracking and will haemorrage seats and Labour should crap themselves they are absent from huge swathes of the South – particularly South West and frankly may never recover.
Billy Bragg still singing in Dorset ? ( zero labour councillors ! )
The point is that the Conservitudes didn’t do much better than 2004 up 1.8% in Wales and up 1.5% in the North West. Their share was down in Yorkshire and Humberside, South West and South East.
Torys want an election for the good of the Britsh people, not for party advantage.
Having a lie-in after your late night out? Head spinning is it?
Here comes the party line…………protest vote by any chance?
Not at all. It was an affirmation by the electorate that they wanted Brown to continue ‘doing the right thing, ‘making tough choices, ‘helping hardworking families’, ‘through the global economic crisis that started in America’.
And that’s why we lost over 60% of our council seats under FPTP and five out of 17 Euro seats under PR.
Two of them to the B&P.
Because people realise what a fucking splendid job I’m doing.
Only 60% down? That’s a fucking ringing endorsement of Labour policies.
Now off you go Harman, that’s what I want you telling folk on the BBC.
I didn’t vote Labour because I was disgsuted by the expenses scandle (whch affects all parties) and my concerns over the world wide economic crisis.
The fact that Brown is a manic twat was incidental.
Some of ‘em did. But far more of them moved to the BNP. Or stayed at home.
Some of ‘em did. But far more of them moved to the B&P. Or stayed at home.
Ah, mr wanker, did you shred your tiny cock last night after you consoled yourself with an extra vigorous barclays? Mary Palm and her five sisters a bit tired, are they?
He’s gonna get it in the neck today as the only troll stupid enough to emerge into the glaring light of the NuLab inferno.
What I want to know is this, if the voters were disllusioned about the expenses scandal, why was it only Nulabia what got a right royal reaming and not the Conservatives nor the Liberals?
Come on troll!
Nor UKIP.
MB: What were your predictions last Thursday for the election results? TOTALLY WRONG! I think you’ll find. No surprise there.
Were you predicting that the Conservitudes wouldn’t increase their share of the vote?
up 1% how did labour do ?
Very, very badly like all the other socialists throughout Europe. Only our socialists did the worst of the lot.
But this is all good news for NuLabia because according to Mad Bator (and I personally have no fucking idea how) it means they will beat the Tories in the next General Election.
The fact that voters didn’t turn to the Conservitudes but turned to a variety of other parties is a serious problem for the Conservitudes. It means it is difficult for them to expect an outright majority.
I am glad someone was paying attention to Emily Mathlis. Hey! I did NOT mean like that!!!!
Perhaps not. Looks like a lot went to the BNP. Good work Gordon.
‘Ere stop messin’ about!

I am amazed that so many people are surprised to learn of Gay Gordon’s penchant for playing the pink oboe. I thought it was common knowledge that he likes to smoke the human havana. Check out the front page or today’s “Telegraph”. He’s whispering “Your shirt or mine?” to Mince Prince Fondlebum.

Creepier than a creepy thing.
But will they give up their pensions?
Yup, Brown’s blood and soil.

Jane Kennedy on Sky now, laying into Gordon :-)
Stay clear of grassy knolls my dear.
Brown’s problem is he is now both a national and international joke.
No one believes a word that comes out of his mouth.
The incredulity shown by both the public and the hacks at the reshuffle conference regarding the chancellor was (in the King’s words) :
“Without Precedent”
If he will blatantly lie about that then why should I believe him over Jane Kennedy?
He just doesn’t get it – you can’t lie to the public one minute and expect you to believe it the next – Is that some sort of weird Presbetyrian (sp?) ethic?
And to have the audacity to mention “cleaning up politics” in the same conference.
Why does he think the public will accept this?
Why didn’t he spin the chancellor thing?
“We looked at changing Chancellor as we move into the recovery phase of the recession” yadda yadda….”and following consultation it was decided to leave Alistair in place”.
Wouldn’t have been a lie, and would have been more plausible.
I’m sorry, but moral compass, son of manse, whatever.
He’s a blatant liar and there is no place for that.
Tw*t!
He’s pathological about lieing.
Most adult folk will only tell a lie if they have to. Ie to hide or save some embarrassment.
But Brown is like a child. You know, the kid who comes in and announces out of the blue ‘It wasn’t me that smashed the greenhouse window…’
WTF? What window? I didn’t even know it was broken? Whaddya mean it wasn’t you? You are the only one out there chucking a fucking cricket ball around….
Brown is the same. Remember the day before the Labour conference when he announced out of the blue that he would never. Ever. Under any circumstances. Ever use his family for publicity.
Fuck me but the very next day his missus is ’spontaneously’ introducing him on the platform.
‘I will never allow public spending to increase to 40% of GDP’
And then promply goes fucking nuts on PFI and borrowing and totally trashes the economy to the point of 100% of GDP (projected)
‘No more housing boom’
‘Nuff said.
‘End to celebrity politics…’
Srallen. Endless photoshoots with the likes of Rooooooney and Beckham. Desperate to be in the same photo as Omaha.
Brown actually announces his idiocies in advance. He knows what he’s going to do is an idiocy and will fuck things up so he pre-announces he’s not going to do such a thing and then promptly does precisely what he claimed he would not do.
The man is a liar to the very core of his being. If you cut a strand of his DNA in half it will have ‘LIAR’ printed through it like a stick of Brighton Rock. As well as ‘TOTAL FUCKING IMBECILE’.
Tw*t – problem he has is Peter Fondelbum, Ed Balls etc.
Let’s be honest here, Gorgon wanted Balls in the treasury to continue the raids on people’s pensions and savings – something Darling wasn’t prepared to do – and Gordon noticed it. There’s still some paultry private pensions left, would help with Gordon’s bribery of the electorate if he can continue to create more Labour supporters/state employees!
Heard someone saying last night that the Yanks can’t understand why we all hate McMental so much. (Might have been on Al Jebeeba, in which case it would be crap anyway.)
Does anyone know what America really thinks about the little shit ?
President Omaha seems to be well aware that McMental is a complete nutter but what about the rest of them ?
The yanks still think Blair is PM.
Must admit I was wondering how many of them know where the UK is – or have even heard of it. But that would be insulting our American cousins, wouldn’t it ?
So does Blair.
I was in the States when Princess Diana died.
The general impression was that the Yanks regard us as a cross between a museum and Disneyland.

Labour has run their machine this way for years, sware loyalty at all costs, it is only now that the worms are turning and some are saying NO. Now someone go that extra step and for the sake of the country, someone stand up and challenge these dictators. I fear, once again, the opportunity will be lost, move forward, one week, one month or one year and he will still be there, why can’t we put this government down!
They’ve got something to hide, something very, very big,
They need more time to shred the evidence
Does Sir Alan make shredders? I bet his lock-up’s full of them. “This time next year, Rodney…”
Public debt.
They don’t want the books looked at.
And I’ll say it again here too:
There comes a time in the life of any government of longevity when you have simply p*ssed off so many sectors in society that there a just too few friends left to vote for you. Doctors, the Police, the Armed forces, small businesses, the middle classes, taxpayers, car drivers, smokers, drinkers, small shop keepers, pensioners, savers, home owners, the list could go on and on; and now, to cap it all, the white working classes who you’ve ignored for a decade.
It’s simple. We’ve called time. Please bring your glasses back to the bar and go home. You’re not wanted round here anymore.
Our Beloved And Glorious Automaton Leader, Herr Comrade McStalin-KimGabe-Brownstainovich is not in any sort of difficulty. The National Controller, Princess Dwork of Darkness, says so.
A Victory Parade will take place froo Red Sq . . . sorry Parlamint Square . . at 13:00.
The Glorious Leader will read the £ hour speech now being written for him. He will use the silly voice and stupid grin that are fast becoming his hall-mark, togevva wiv the strange jaw movement caused by The Controller’s fist up his arse.
The HaHaHaPerson Lesbian WeightLifting and Olympic Hod Carriers will lead an interminable procession.
Finally, Princess Polytwaddle will make a two hour speech in honour of the Beloved Leader culminating in orgasm.
Old-Noo (neé Noo-Old) BoringLiars – led by a moron. Creators of the world’s most robust economy, bankrupting the UK, TAXING YOU witless, LYING, ‘n WASTING YOUR MONEY on something pointless NEAR YOU!
Yawn
Waht time’s News at Ten?
They’re announcing the resignations one at a time
Ich schwöre: Ich werde dem Führer des Labour Reiches und Volkes Gordon Braun treu und gehorsam sein, die Gesetze beachten, und meine Amtspflichten gewissenhaft erfüllen, so wahr mir Gott helfe.
I swear: I will be faithful and obedient to Gordon Brown, Führer of the Labour Reich and people, to observe the law, and to conscientiously fulfil my official duties, so help me God.
Excellent. I’ve taken the liberty of borrowing that for my blog.
You could scratch the ‘and people’ out of the Labour version.
Election of BNP MEPs; congratulations to the scum of our troughing, anti-union, out of touch, incompetent, venal and self-interested political class. Here is where your anti-UK, multi-culti, eco-looney, anti-human policies have landed us. On the D-day anniversary weekend, where Brown’s eulogy was a thinly veiled Labour help anyone but ourselves foriegn policy speech, while Obama talked about the events and the men who took part, even naming come. What have we come to? Jesus wept
A shame on on all your houses indeed.
See my comments below – I suggest you don’t live near the Muslims, don’t read the number of local newspaper letters arguing for Shariah law, don’t see the rapid rise in numbers, don’t see the attacks on the churches, don’t see the attacks on the christians, haven’t noticed the challenges to British laws to have them modified to suit a Muslim way of life (polygamy is now legal under the social security system – that’s for muslims).
I suggest the point when you’ll wake up to the Muslim issue is when the whole issue becomes completely overt, with the creation of a Muslim Party standing for the HoC. By then – it’ll be all but over!
What we need is a national debate! A rational national debate, where the gloves are off, and we can talk about the immigration issue candidly and without limits!
We desperately need a debate but won’t get it.
The entrenched ruling socialists would brand as politically incorrect anybody daring to utter the first syllable of the immigration word.
My ethnicity is of the majority in the UK, but the time when I will be made an outcast in my own country is not far away.
The more this continues, the more Mr. Griffin’s party will attract recruits.
Some very revealing posts which reflect individual’s preferences and prejudices more than they tell us about the B x P. Griffin is a nationalist not, by definition, a national socialist or a fascist (he does not, for example, advocate a one party state, nor is he a corporatist); and he is clearly not the saviour of the UK as the white van men think. He’s merely a politician who has benefited from the collective failure of the mainstream parties to address a number of issues that concern many people, such as the nature of national identity.
The emergence of the modern nation state was intertwined with stringent efforts to promote monolingualism; a strategy designed to suppress regionalism, and promote national identity. The lessons for today? Multi-culturalism is culturally enriching, but must be subsumed within the prevailing social fabric if the nation is to survive.
You can debate whether UK plc should survive as a coherent entity or not, but if you think it should then much of what Griffin said makes sense; even if the B & P’s ideas about immigrants / jobs, and speculation, and of course colour, are ignorant and stupid.
It is time we had a real debate about nationality, without the dead hand of political correctness.
Agreed – but it will never happen.
Take race relations – with the issue of abusive words.
1 I wouldn’t type them here, they’d probably be censored. But couldn’t the words be reclaimed and the ‘bigots’ deprived of their language?
NO!
Why not? The race relations payouts are in the order of £2bn a year. Where’s the enticement when there’s a fortune to be plundered annually with the status quo. The race relations card is a near perfect gag.
I despise the nationalists, but I’m worried they’ve got a point!
“I suggest you don’t live near the Muslims”
Erm, I’m actually married to a moslem. And the tripe that you spew is typical of the racist right.
The “extremists” that you refer to exist in all religions – oh yes, there are Christian extremist groups as well – oh, and let’s not forget that there are CoE bishops in our unelected House of Lords!
I travel on the tube network. 52 people don’t anymore thanks to islam.
CoE? whats that – oh yeah Church of England – damn them for being in our parliament
I’m a Catholic – extremists exist – yes, I’m aware of the holocaust denier Bishop – at least that’s a thing about the Catholic religion – we’re very quickly picked and picked apart if there’s disagreement. As for the tripe.
Move to Luton and see it for yourself. I don’t read or have any truck with the right – the first speach I heard from B*P was last night. But I can read – and do, the local letters page is interesting for its continuous arguments over the Muslims want for Shariah law and constant imposition of its values on others. Always a new issue arises within a month of the end of the last argument.
My other half was told in no uncertain terms – convert to Islam or Satan will visit you every night! Ignoring the fact that she was offered money £50, plastic flowers, and cheap box of chocolates to marry a muslim to give him British Nationality. (5 years ago). Nor does she get into a private hire car these days without being propositioned, and after asking, finding out that the driver is a muslim! (Wife’s at home).
That’s experience, not read 3rd hand complaints. I’m personally angry but simultaeneously not surprised she did vote B*P, she’s being subjected to verbal abuse ‘cos she’s converting to Catholocism – ‘Satan will visit you every night’. (That’s a quote!).
There’s more… verbal abuse, physical attacks, and when the BNP did turn up in our region – 3 or 4 of them – and they provoked some muslims – where the f*ck did the baseball bat magically appear from? I’m left wondering, do muslims wander around town armed with Baseball bats? I saw the whole incident from start to finish – and I swear, the baseball bat was a magic trick!
Oh point about the BNP supporters – I assumed they were as much – what with being skinheads, and DM’s. Their language was very abusive… not in the least bit impressive, and boy – did they run the moment the Muslims stand up – bit like a roadrunner cartoon impression.
What we need is that debate, public, open, national, without the race card to completely trounce both the issues and the BNP!
I went to Bradford University and lived around that blighted city for four years. Muslim extremism was already there back in the nineties, but politicians were too multi-culti (and scared) to do anything. Labour positively encouraged ghettoisation and exploited it for their own political ends – primarily the vote base since the traditional white working class communities of factory workers and miners were either destroyed, had become more educated and middle class and were no longer malleable or gullible enough, sot he remaining underclass left behind were made welfare Dependant and thrown to the cultural wolves. Result: BNP supporters.
It will all end in tears , just hope he isnt getting off on making the tories squeal , he really loves his nutter title i think , name change by deed poll to joseph stalin .
Bunker Brown Shirt will meet his match
i think jane kennedy is a pretty cool guy. eh won’t take the fuhrer oath and doesnt afraid of anything.
Gis a job
Fuhrer befehl, wir folgen.
The Leader commands, we obey.
Johna Brown does for West Ham, – West Ham United have been taken over by a company controlled by the Icelandic bank Straumur
Blimey ! WE must have had to pay THEM.
That motherfucker Roy Hattersley is currently spraying spit around the studio on the Daily Politics. It seems none of the cabinet eunuchs would turn up, they are too busy swearing loyalty to the Fuhrer.
Isn’t my glove-puppet coming on well?
Stephen Ladyboy preaching “back to the issues” on Brown Broadcasting Clowns – utter tosser
Hain of all people was a no show at the Unite Against Fascism press conference in the commoms this morning. Seen entering a tanning salon in soho instead.
The problem is most people don’t live around the muslim areas – and watch churches being stoned by the Muslims – don’t read the local letters which state shariah law should be imposed.
Don’t look at the elephant! Don’t LOOK at the elephant!
Soon, there’s going to be a Muslim Party – which will win a landslide election – Britain will become a muslim state and all and sundry will utter
“What the F*ck happened!”
We don’t already have a British Muslim Council for no reason. We have had laws changed to suit the muslims – go to your dictionary – look up the word INVASION.
Just for the record – I voted UKIP. Personally, I believe under the law – it’s already too late, and I’m not prepared to vote BNP, regardless. But because I’m living next door to a huge Muslim ghetto, I do see the issues, and it’s starting to worry people.
No one goes to the churches, do they?
I do – and the Methodist church that came under attack is now in the middle of the ghetto, just down the same road of the Muslim centre that subsequently got fire-bombed. (which I don’t agree with – living together is one thing – imposing cultures on each other is another issue altogether).
I live in Luton – and the churches are full, I know ‘cos I went to 3 masses yesterday (9:30 for choir, 14:00 for First Communion, 17:00 for ‘mass/communion’!), every at least Catholic church is full to the rafters, but there again Luton is mostly immigrants anyway – Irish population served by the airport having Ryan Air, and one of (often argued) THE largest Irish community outside Ireland! My mother was part of a large Scottish emmigration back in the 60s when the shipbuilding industry got shutdown in favour of London/England. We have a large Polish/Czechoslovakian immigration population, and large Sikh and Muslim populations. My father’s side is native Lutonian – so I’m well aware that we the natives here in our home town are in the definite minority.
The Polish are mostly Catholic, as are the Irish, then there’s the Italians etc. So we have a large indigenous religious populations. This includes a large Protestant population. Most get along with each other, few religious arguments – but the muslims aren’t playing by the same rules, and there’s physical attacks. I’m well aware the muslims are calling for a muslim state, the letters in the local press are constantly on about the issue from the muslims here. I don’t dare think that this is just a ‘few’ – because there’s no muslims arguing against the imposition of shariah law, nor do I think this is just a Luton thing – friends state clearly that the family networks are spread across the country.
We my friend are sleepwalking into a Muslim State. Luton’s on the front line, but it’s going to go national, and when it does, the argument is over. The Muslims won!
You can take your cross hairs off Brown now Guido. He isn’t going anywhere soon unlike the last person you set your assassins sights on, McBride.
The Blairite plot is rudderless, spineless and shambolic. I’m going to make a princely sum over at Paddypower having bet that Brown will still be prime minister on December the 31st. Only yesterday they had Brown at 1:4 to resign by August 2009. Interestingly that market has now been removed, but not before coining it in from countless punters who have bought into the media frenzy surrounding Brown’s ‘imminent’ resignation.
Mandelson is effectively running the government now, who the hell is going to take him on in the Labour circles?
Labour knives are out at 18:00 tonight in HoC’s.
Interesting poll, can’t win under Gordon – even less with someone else.
Heads they lose, tails we win!
They made their choice in July 2007 despite warnings – they now have to live with the consequences of that stupidity
And so do we!!
Even if they replace Brown – doesn’t mean there’s a GE – example to be cited is Major – voted PM had election year later. If Conservatives can do it, why can’t Liebore?
Can see than one coming a mile away!
Can our esteemed leader please define ‘the people’ in terms of ‘what the people want is for me to get on with the job’
‘the people’ are definitely not the electorate
I guess he must be referring to that bunch of self serving Labour MP’s terrified of putting the question to the electorate.
It is a fitting epitaph that the only people with balls in the upper echelons of the Labour Party (with a couple of notable exceptions) are women
Democracy rules OK.
Like fuck it does.
‘Sally Keeble, a Labour MP who is as low profile as she is loyal has just told the BBC “Gordon said he wanted more time, but there is still a sense of lack of direction. We want a credible Labour party with a clear sense of direction ‘
But that’s the fucking problem. Folk are saying Brown has no sense of directio. But he does. It’s the same direction he’s been heading since 1997.
Borrow billions, squander billions, print billions. Let some other fucker clean up the mess.
Fuck expenses. That’s small beer compared to the 200bn quid fuck-up he’s got in the pipeline so far this year. And that’s just this year.
No mechanism to pay any of this cash back. No mention of how it will be paid back.
The problem isn’t that this Labour government is ‘directionless’ or ‘leaderless’. Quite the opposite. The problem is we’re being lead by a lunatic at full tilt in the wrong direction. And 350 Labour MP’s just sit there and watch him deliberately destroy the economy. It has to be deliberate because it ain’t possible to fuck up on such a monumental scale accidentally. Or, rather having fucked up to date it ain’t possible to fail to see how you’ve fucked up and change tack or at least stand back and think how you’re going to fix it.
But Brown and his trainload of imbeciles just keep throwing more coal into the boiler and racing down the track determined to be the first government to do the economic equivilent of ‘jumping’ a train over a canyon. Walter Mitty doesn’t begin to describe Brown. Well, maybe it begins to describe him… but it’s only a start.
I hope this is not a deliberate ploy by him to sabotage the country so that the people who have to clear up the mess will be deeply unpopular, thereby allowing a gullible public to allow the shysters back in. His 13 Year plan is coming to fruition.
Oh yes,let’s consider the direction shall we.
Case Study:
LDV Vans.
Mandelspin tours the Midlands extolling the virtues of electric cars and how LDV would be well placed to take advantage of Gordon’s brilliant new plan for producing them (gone quiet on that front hasn’t it?)
LDV say help, we have no cash. We have not built a van since December.No-one’s buying them
Government says fuck off. (very sensible as owner is a Russian worth billions)
Government agrees to provide a bridging loan (to a Malaysian company) of £5 million,pending negotiations for sale of LDV. (yes, elections coming,need to buy a few votes)
Sale falls through.
Government is asked for £45 million (unemployment benefit for the workers will cost the taxpayer £53 million) to save future electric car making giant.
Government says ‘too risky’ fuck off ( WTF were Brown and Mandelson talking about then – do we want electric cars or not?)
What direction does that indicate? apart from disappearing up your own exhaust pipe.
The labour response to any problem , whatever the nature, is to say something.
Nothing is ever done, it is always just talk.
It began with Blair and it hasn’t stopped. No actions, just spin and lies.
Brown was doing the same yesterday; he was saying something.
Labour cannot put their words into action and never could.
> and 350 Labour MP’s just sit there and watch him deliberately destroy the economy.
I couldn’t come up with a better plan to destroy an economy than “post neo-classical endogenous growth theory” (i.e. high tax on incomes is ok, cos magic “innovation” will save us).
What I like is the years of ‘Brown’s our best chancellor ever’ line from the Labour muppets on Question Time and not once being taken to task for it!
Now, there’s a back lash – why wait?! What were the Conservatives waiting for?
Gordon may have his problems, like not being the great Neil Kinnock, but he is not, repeat he is not, Mrs Thatch!
This whole control 1984 type method of government pervades every aspect of the Public Services.
I just got back form Bow Magistrates, summons for 9:30 get seen by a duty solicitor at 11:00 having requested a form to claim small business rate relief (which never arrived) and getting a summons instead.
I get to court, queued for an hour and a half to be told that not paying nearly twice the sum that would be actually due was an offence and the costs would stand.
I now have to negotiate payment terms at the full rate and pay it whilst my application for small business rates is processed. This is despite having applied and been granted small business rate last financial year. Guilty until proven innocent. This is all part of the new facist state we live in. NewLiars helping small business? they’ll be telling us the BBC is impartial next.
I fucking hate where and what they have brought this country to.
Rant over.
Keep on ranting ………….
Best regards
I paid a fine last month and then received a bailiffs letter for non-payment.
The state is there to extort, not help.
Sorry to hear about that Canary Wharf Rat.
Sadly though, every day thousands of other people are being put through the same wringer over a myriad of minor new offences and penalties introduced by Labour.
Did Labour really think this wouldn’t come back to bite them on the arse?
What really pisses me off though is that we now know that some of the money raised is being diverted to fill their pockets.
Mr Brown, please do not try to solve the problems and crisis that you and your totally incompetent NewLiars have created.
The crisis is one of confidence now and that will not be solved until we have a General Election.
You and your Party are now the crisis that delays recovery. No matter what you think you can do you are a busted flush which is draining confidence and the lifeblood from this country. Fuck off soon so we can clear your mess(es) up.
PS: We don’t like you either.
Gordon is filled dismay
’cause the world has discovered he’s gay
he whispered to peter
“they know I’m a cock eater”
and I get my shirt lifted each day
UPDATE ON WEST HAM SELL OFF (Sky news reporting)
After his love fest yesterday in east London its just been announced that West Ham has been sold to a load of Icelandic Bankers. WTF?
Hhahahahahahahaa
The curse of Jonah strikes again !!!!
What ever would Alf Garnet say?
Kennedy; “the style of leadership undermines colleagues with smears” going on to say it reminds her of Militant Tendency!
Militant Mentalist !!!
The difference being, of course, that the Militant Tendency were never allowed to form a Government until Gordon Brown came along.
There is no way Gordon is going to get the elbow now from the PLP or whoever, so we may as well calm down, relax and watch the spectacle unfold over the next 12 months. Labour will not be forgiven for this. It’s a pity the cost is the ruin of our country for at least a generation, but utlimately it may be for the best, as by this time next year we will know better what shite we have landed ourselves in, there will be a greater resolve to dismantle the bloated state, and we may be able to debate real issues which the liberal elite don’t want us to debate. Also, the increasing desparation of the “luvvies” will keep us amused.
Fine for you.
But I don’t care what state the political parties are in – I am concerned about what state I’m going to be in though, and the state of this bloody country. I’m sick of being told what to think and what to do. I’m sick of being treated with comtempt by MPs and others who are not worthy of cleaning my shoes. Fuck the luvvies, I don’t want a continual ’show’ or ‘pantomime’ I want a nation that is self-confident and its people generally happy with their lot.
So fascists have finally been voted into power by British voters, and it has happened on Gordon Brown’s watch. How long will it be before we have fascist MP’s in Parliament?
Let’s not pretend that we do not understand why this has happened. It has happened because ALL of the mainstream parties and the media have refused to listen to the people of this country. Quite the opposite in fact. For the past month the public have been told repeatedly what they are supposed to be thinking by Labour Politicians. Do they have ANY IDEA of just how offensive that is?
Labour need to comprehend that the time when main stream parties could control the population by controlling the message are OVER. There are now tens of thousands of opinion formers engaged in politics via the internet. Their voice is being heard directly and uncensored every single day. The public have been empowered.
The main stream parties need to start engaging with voters IMMEDIATELY. They MUST listen to what the electorate are saying and change direction TODAY before the cancerous tide of fascism covers the entire country.
Labour are DIRECTLY REPSONSIBLE for letting fascists gain credibility and power. They MUST immediately stand aside for the good of the country. There may some setbacks in taking this path, but Labour Party members know and the public knows that this is the ONLY path that will start to put things right.
– Troughtastic –
Gordons Required Pledge
Do you know Tony?
Have you got a fanny?
If yes to both questions,FUCK OFF
Seeing as I am a bit thick can someone explain to me why the following doesnt happen:
Tomorrow sees a vote for dissolution of parliament brought by the nationalists; tory and Lib dem will support – presumably that is everyone but Labour. Labour have a majority of 64.
Why dont 32 of the most conscientous / honest Labour MP’s simply vote for dissolution, issuing a statement to the electorate that their duty to the country is more important than any duty to party, and that Labour like this does not serve the country’s interest.
They might upset the Labour party, but they would be seen as heroes by the electorate and their majorities would if anything be safer than they are today because of their actions. When the election is over, I doubt very much that any new leader of Labour would be able to ignore them given the public support their actions would command. It seems to me that with the vote tomorrow, any substantial body of Labour MP’s prepared to stand up for the electorate hold the cards – Labour machine or no Labour machine.
But I am thick, so perhaps someone could put me right.
Would you vote to dissolve your job, your money and your expenses?
1. If I was principled, yes – if my understanding of my job was to serve the electorate in a position of public trust and I felt that the present situation was damaging – which I do. And, in the alternative;
2. Even if I wasn’t principled, yes – if I felt that by coming out on the side of the electorate, publicly, would attract me more votes and perhaps shore up my majority and therefore safeguard the job, money and expenses not just for the next few months but for the next few years. Are Labour voters so tribal that they would not vote for an honest rebel? I doubt it, on present evidence.
Perhaps the party would ban my candidacy? Not a very democratic move going into an election “He can’t stand for Labour because he believed the people should have a say…”
For a proportion of the cattle – yes, you are correct.
But Cassius has a point. The PLP will have to be rebuilt. You can rebuild it from a core of MPs regarded as having some honour and integrity, or you can rebuild it from scratch.
Any Tory will tell you that it takes years to get a presence back into areas where you have been kicked out, never mind build that presence into a possible gain at a GE. No local activists means no local party. The PLP is going to have rebuild trust, rebuild an activist base, find policies that will “resonate” with electorate, select a leader, etc etc.
that is too much/too soon for the next election, so they should just go, lick their wounds, accept the next election is lost (and maybe the one after that) and start the renewal process.
There will be no more expenses, and there is an adequate payoff, Labour should call it a day, greed is a very nasty deadly sin.
They could lose their jobs regardless of how good as an MP they are.
They would forever be seen amongst their peers (no pun intended) as untrustworthy so no career gain there.
Basically, they won’t because they are scared and put their own careers ahead of what is best for the Country.
That is all.
You’re spot on.
But do you really think any of the flotsam and jetsom parading as Labour MP’s can think outside the ‘box’? Really think on their feet? Really think at all?
It will be interesting to see how many of the Labour MP’s that have suddenly found a conscience over the last few days actually use it to vote for dissolution or whether they vote to keep the gravy train running.
I am not holding my breath. The Bisto Express is still running.
> Tomorrow sees a vote for dissolution of parliament brought by the nationalists; tory and Lib dem will support – presumably that is everyone but Labour. Labour have a majority of 64.
Well – the vote’s on Wednesday for a start!
After that – it’s all open to debate. There are going to be troughers who’ll vote aye for dissolution of parliament in the hope that their expenses claim wont come out until after they’ve been re-elected.
This is a case of Election in October is prefered. Trough-tastic for some eh?
I see that the election of Marta Andreasen has gone pretty much unreported.
Someone who knows where the bodies are buried should make EU politics more interesting – and this time they can neither shut her up, not shut her out.
Fat chance of europhiles mentioning that one.
Pravda 24 not making this a biggie then?
Surprise.
Good news!
The Penguin
Some Willie Nelson impersonator (Jeremy Corbyn, Lab) on Beeb News stating that Brown needs to move to the left to recover popularity – good luck with that one!
Assuming the Labour rebels bottle it tonight – wonder how many will abstain in the HoC vote for a GE this week?
Corbyn was a twat before twats were invented.
I was watching him on the telly – does his Mum knit all of his clothes ?
ZaNu abstentions on the dissolution vote ? As near 0 as makes no different would be my bet.
The lobby-fodder will go where they’re told.
They don’t grasp human nature do they? Socialism is a lovely idea, but it isn’t realistic.
What a biff – moving FROM the left is what gave us a Labour government in the first place.
Then again a move to the left will ensure we never have to suffer the muppets ever again.
Crack on Jeremy – GOOD IDEA, thumbs up etc.
What Jeremy Corbyn fails to realise is that Gordon Brown is seen by many of us as a wicked, spiteful smearer of all who are not in his little gang. He is also (IMHO) a troughing tealeaf. He is also an instinctive liar and is incompetent at his job. He talks in stupid soundbites and cliched phrases that insult our intelligence. He is the problem for Labour. They will not get rid of him, however, because the great majority of PLP MPs are in the trough and they want to get their thieving hands on more of our money before they become unemployed. They care not one fig that they are consigning Labour to be out of office for generations to come.
When are we going to be rid of the whole ugly, unprincipled, dishonest, corrupt shower of shits?
It’s nearly 1pm and time for the news.
Can anyone tell me what TV station to watch to get fair impartial news?
Is this blog the only place to hear the nation speak openly.
That’s unless you mention the Brothers Non Party of course
Good luck on that one…
you wont get what you want on tv and dont reach for a newspaper.
sky
Sky is probably the best of the worst.
Adam Boulton has at least stopped cocksucking quite so hard recently. Give it a few months he might even turn into a proper journalist, whatever that is.
Use the internet to look at everything.
Look to the right on this site and you will see “Guido reads”, these are useful pointers.
Read the foreign papers to see what they are saying about us. eg New York Times which has very good web presence. Usually the NYT ignores us because we are a small and insignificant country with no influence.
It seems possible that a lot of Labour MPs might be affronted at the ‘vow of allegiance’ and might possibly grow some tonight.
Stop Press:
We have a female who has been promoted.
Just been told that former Foreign Office Minister Gillian Merron is now number two to Andy Burnham at health.
What did Gillian do to get that I ask?
She’s been used as a sop to keep the sisters from claiming Gordo hates women.
She did nothing at all – she’s just window dressing.
And she knows it.
She’ll have a job keeping Burnham’s sweaty little hands off her make-up. Buy your own mascara you tight bastard.
What’s the odds on her quitting?
This is getting to be farcically funny, almost to the point it’d make a Hollywood satire! Who needs BBC sitcoms – this is far better!
Cameron must having the laugh of his life now, a dead donkey would look a better PM than Brown right now. This is seriously first class comedy.
Pity it’s real, and affects us!
Yvette’s husband will poach her so that at cabinet they can have Merron/Balls……
Ta velly much.
I believe there is a sexual dimension to Gordon Brown’s quest for power, that is the only driver strong enough to offer any explanation to his behavior
Wikipedia : The OSS report states that Hitler was an impotent coprophile
Coprophilia (from Greek κόπρος, kópros—excrement and φιλία, filía—liking, fondness)
The Cleveland steamer is a form of coprophilia, where one defecates on anothers chest
The Cleavland Steamer……………that is going to make me laugh all day………………………
Christ, I was going to have cumberland sausage with onion gravy this evening. That’s put paid to that.
i prefer a walnut whip on the face.
Try rolled up ginger cake and warm lucozade for a real shitty party
John Major looks like a political colossus compared to Brown. Faced with a rebellion he stood down and forced a leadership contest which he won and then lost a general election…….well the last bit wasn’t so great but at least he had the balls and the lack of obsession to stand up to the challengers rather than hide in his bunker
Major had 86 or so votes against him and for his opponent the humming Welsh Secretary John Redwood.
Master wanker, please stop using work time and work bandwidth to post on here. We are paying your wages, after all.
FFS sake, how low have we gone when that political midget John fucking Major is revered as a statesman.
Wait for it – the Teletubbies will be statespersons before One-eye’s finished!
aaaargggg Geraldine Smith if we keep him long enough even the public will see we are right … at what point do they understand its not upto them to decide whats right
…new variation on the previous bunker edict of “they didn’t know what they were really voting for when they voted B&P”
Common theme : The Electorate are too stupid to know “the right thing” to vote for – Ignore them.
Bunker: “they didn’t know what they were really voting for when they voted B&P”
Translation: “they knew what they were really voting against when they voted BNP”
”Resign, Brown!” Says Public
There has to be more “resignations” before the PLP meeting.Doesn’t there?
Just 2 big’ish beasts with a bit of spine will do it.Think of the glory.
Can do you a Nick Brown and a Charles Clarke if you need two big beasts who look like swine, if that’s any good ?
Can’t do you any Labour big beasts with a bit of spine though, sorry.
Sally Keeble MP, “who is low profile” !!!!! No fucking wonder! have you seen her? they just had a clip on sky. what an industrial munter!
I’m hearing that a jellyfish is to join Brown’s team as ‘Cabinet Enforcer’, having sworn allegiance to protect the Leader from all the brave minnows swimming in his foetid pond.
I think Gordon Brown is a pretty cool guy. eh guarantees the absolute destruction of Labour and doesn’t afraid of anything.
Agreed – he will single-handedly and with just one eye destroy labour for at least a generation, and if the labour ruin of the economy can be maintained in public perception for the next 20 years. We can only hope they’ll never be re-elected. (I do want to retire to A PENSION!).
Gordon Brown WILL resign this evening
Dream on…..wish it were true but he will hang on for grim death.
I think you’d be surprised if you knew who i am is a pretty cool guy. eh is deluded and doesnt afraid of anything.
ROTFLMAO!
Are you serious? Brown wont resign – he’s getting on with the job he’s been doing since 97, destroying Britain economically and as a nation!
The man’s a traitor.
Wonder why Labour ended the death sentence for Treason – can’t possibly imagine!
Someone rigging phone ins?
Has anyone else noticed a large number of men of Scottish or Scouse origin phoning BBC Radio 5’s morning shows and supporting Gordon? This behaviour (common when Mandy was Blair’s closest aid) seems to have returned. How depressing.
How very dare you. I am sure that the BBC researchers do not screen callers in any way, and are not swayed when they ask the caller what point he/she wants to make and they say “I want to support Gordon”
No way would that make it more likely that they are given air time. This is the fair and impartial BBC we are talking about here.
Now you know where all the trolls have gone.
Spot on Camulodunum Voter – I heard on the car radio some Glaswegian yahoo giving verbatim what someone had also said a few weeks earlier – about how people have forgotten how bad the Tories were and interest rates of 15% etc. Since the limit of financial undertstanding of your average Glaswegian is that you can avoid duty on bottle of Buckfast and get just as blotto, I suspected he was reading from a script.
Just had the woman liebore MP for Morecambe on SKY. Jesus, you switch them on by asking one simple question, and their natural reaction is to spout the whole of today’s “Liebore line to take with the MSM”. The Sky guy eventually had to cut her off, or she would still have been going tonight.
She is obviously angling for a new job in the “renewed” Liebore government of our Glorious Leader.
They all sing from the same daily spinsheet.
Compulsive reading otherwise they would all be contadicting each other.
Would love to see the e-mail issued from the labour bunker which tells them what line to take today…….anyone got a copy please? If so forward it to Guido?
Has Guido or any of our co-conspirators uncovered the wording of the
” pledge of loyalty” to Der Fuehrer..
In the PUBLIC INTEREST, we should establish the extent and depth of the pledge loyalty demanded by the Demented One and Lord Mandy.
Does it contain a ” until death do us part” clause?
Any references to Rocking Horse?
Any reference to “annointed successor Lord Mandy of Despot” ?
Brown “strengthens” his government by making yet more siblings ministers. The helmet-haired you-know-what Eagle twins. Two wimmen of guaranteed loyalty for the price of one.

Married couples, brothers and sisters, a real family affair + unelected ministers.
What a joke that man has become.
….ELF – it would appear that the joke’s on us…
This is called the YYD style of interview:
“You support Gordon? Yeah, You’ll Do.”
Great article – highly pertinent:
“It’s Something Else Entirely
The Difference Between Leadership and Domination”
snip
“There is an easily discerned line between leaders and tyrants. It would do us well to know the difference.
The main role of leadership is to help people get where they want to go. Leadership is specifically about individuals. It challenges individuals to think in new ways and to try to achieve things they don’t believe they can achieve. Leadership is coaching. It is guidance. It is experience and wisdom. Leadership is never about the leaders because the end goal of good leaders is to become useless; to no longer be needed by others in order to achieve their goals. Leaders empower others.
The main goal of dominators/controllers is to get people to go where they themselves want to go and do what they themselves want done. Nothing is done for the benefit of the individuals they control, in fact those being controlled give much more than they receive in return. Domination and control is all about the dominators and controllers. Individuals become irrelevant when they are controlled or dominated. Domination is undemocratic. There is rigidity in thought and action and a tendency to focus on the letter of the law as opposed to the spirit of the law. Domination and control is about hierarchy and illegitimate power over others. Dominators use others for their own ends. Dominators and controllers jobs are never done because people will always need to be controlled or they’ll be something other than what the dominators want them to be. Dominators disempower others.”

Sinn Fein largest vote in N.Ireland. SNP largest vote in Scotland. UKIP second largest vote in England. The BNP with 2 MEP’s. Wales vote Tory. Is it just me or is it getting scarey.Time for Labour to think about the country,before there is no coumtry to think about.
When der fuehrer says we is de master race We heil heil right in der fueher’s face Not to love der fuehrer is a great disgrace So we heil heil right in der fuehrer’s face:-
Somebody is telling porkies. My bet is it is Brown.
Can’t be Gormless; he said his Presbyterian daddy trained him to always tell the truth….
Hmm! To quote Obi Wan
“It is the truth … from a certain point of view!”
Acording to sky Brown has called cabinate collueges in for an afternoon meeting.
Could this be the penny finaly dropingg, Its over?
Not even a mention of this on the BBC Front Page – hardly surprising seeing as they’re still likely in denial.
Although I do like the picture of Mandleson looking like he’s swallowed something rather sour.
…erm.. isn’t the solution for the Labour back benchers rather simple? Just walk across the House to the Conservative benches, DC can then demand a vote of no confidence and the Labour MP’s then stand as Independents in the forthcoming election against the Labour Party… hang on.. what’s that ringing..oh bugger it’s time to get up.. it’s all been a bad dream
Just seen the news, “it’s terrible” (that Labour has lost) says the BBC.
No one that I have seen on Sky or BBC has any thought for anyone else it’s just bad that Labour have lost.
They did a piece on the Brit Nats winning a couple of seats and it was “only a protest vote apparently”.
Where are the good manners of old? What about a well done Mr. Cameron?
So I’ll say it and to hell with them.
WELL DONE MR CAMERON.
THE NEXT PRIME MINISTER.
WELL DONE SIR.
Well, actually – well done to both UKIP and the Conservatives – seeing as both did well out of the European elections.
Highlight of the election – Labour came 6th in Cornwall.
So well done Cornwall!
Low-lights of the night – 2 B*P seats – all the Labour seats!
Victoria Derbyshire on BBC R5L – “surely, if the Tories win the next general election, Labour must shoulder some of the blame?” You couldn’t make it up.
I cant to see this mentioned on the bbc news website am I looking in the wrong place
If you are looking on Brown Broacasting , yes all true.
