Meet the Man in Charge of Digital Britain
If the above is not enough, here is the classic example of the calibre of his insight: read this New Statesman article and weep with laughter at the twat that is Sion Simon…

….a note to Mr Charles_E_Harδwiδge
Stay On-Topic
Never post off-topic messages, not related to the subject of the mailing list or newsgroup. This takes judgment, and you should ask yourself a basic question: is this posting likely to be of interest to this newsgroup or mailing list, or is there another forum that is more appropriate? You might get a better response by searching for a newsgroup or mailing list more directly applicable to your message.
Trolling is the act of posting a message highly off-topic or otherwise calculated to arouse controversy and hopefully cause a flame war. The best response to a troll’s posting is no response, to recognize the purpose and ignore the bait.
Indeed Netiquette, the best response to a troll is to ignore it. Actually, the same probably applies to nonentities in charge of Digital Britain, especially when they work for failing governments which are on the way out.
I have a hand gesture that the new Chief Digital Dick might understand.
It involves a single rigid digit.
No No No.
A loosely clenched right fist making vigorous up and down motions, is far more applicable.
Scrap that; he would very likely think you are making a pass at him.
Best just to thump him hard in the face, then the belly, followed up by a swift firm knee in the groan area.
222 – ‘the groan area’: I like that phrase, very evocative – ought to be used more often. Please don’t Tm it… too good for that.
Groan area, … groan area… groan area…!
I have an even better hand gesture. It involves the tightening of one’s index finger around the trigger of a pistol aimed at pointblank range at Sion Simonandonandonandon nether regions.
I’m only relying here as message 2 and beyond is about 3 metres (yards!) down the page.
Guido, you describe him as a twat, is he your boyfriend or something? SS is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy beyond twat. Had a read of that New Statesman article…classic, wonderfully ironic.
P.S. I wonder if he realises he looks and sounds far BETTER in his spoof video played alongside him on that Sky News interview.
What a Hunt
Most MPs at least sound polished – this dipstick is barely able to string a coherent sentence together.
Could their polish be Mansion House do you think? Thought I recognised that orange tone.
What a fucking wanker that idiot in the video is.
A complete oaf.
What’s his name? Sion Simon? What a wanker.
But his girlfriend Nicola Burdett is so good – look how she managed Gordon’s performances on YouTube.
sion simon is a total fucking spastic.
oh, and note to netiquette: flame war? who the fuck are you, bill gates?
grow a spine you cripple. I’ve already got charlie boy in my back pocket.
try to keep up you imbecile.
thankyou.
I cant imagine how inadequate you must truly be
what a spastic!
Seriously though, you need help. Or a reasonable prison term.
what a dick!
not very diverse
I object to you calling anyone a “spastic” or “cripple”
Tosspot
Nothing wrong with the word spastic, or cripple. And sion simon is, mentally, both.
How long ago was that interview done? I thought long hair for blokes went out in the 90′s?.
Just checked him in the Telegraph files. He’s not one to go without is he? Stamp duty & the max amount for food in addition to cleaning – too high & mighty to wash his own skivvies is he? Just another troughing Labour MP and – from this interview – rather rude & ignorant to boot.
12 years of reckless spending
by unnaccountable twisted devious liars
and self-indulgent leeches,
arrogant creeps.
who still say they just want to get on with running the country,
and this pitiful invertibrate,
this wretched miserable ineloquent wet youf
doesn’t know what “egregious” means.
Chambers
egregious: prominent, distinguished
egregiously: Lat, chosen out of the flock
He’s a publicity seeking wanker. Can’t even be civil in an interview. If this is the best they can do, pathetic.
If I resided in the Birmingham Erdington Ward and had to admit to being represented by that creature, I would die of shame and embarrassment!
I can gauge the calibre of this tosspots insight,about .177 Gat gun.
Update – I have £30 at 8 to 1 that this spandex will lose at the next GE. It’s now in to 4 to 1. If you want to help with the campaign, you know who to call.
Yes but if we ignored Charles completely, we wouldn’t be able to call him a twat.
People enjoy calling Charles a twat because he is a, well, a twat.
What’s more, he’s a Zanulabor twat!
The words Charles and twat just seem to go together.
Peaches, cream – Charles, twat.
New Labour – twat.
Love and marriage – Charles, NuLabour, twat.
See what I mean.
Please don’t spoil our enjoyment by making us ignore his trolling completely.
Charles, twat.
Sorry, can’t stop myself.
On reflection, I feel the same thing pretty much applies to Mr Simon.
Sion, twat…
Now that just has a certain ring, you have to agree.
That ridiculous wig must be covering something up – almost certainly ginger curls and a big pink ribbon.
Stop Press, the country’s being run by a soft fruit! A blackberry in Corfu.
“…. I’ve been a loyal hardworking MP …. ”
This puir wee Mannie … das Leben ist so schwer -il est si exceptionably hard for this Younker Man to remain so modest and humble when he unembarrrasssedly advertizes his stunningly amazingly high-abilities to us lesser Mortals
My friends play golf, or do things for charideeee as a hobby. I suck off Big Issue vendors, and don’t even take my copy of the rubbish mag afterwards. I’m ‘hard core’ charideeee lovin you cripples.
F*** me! The man’s a midget – look at this picture on his website:
http://www.sionsimonmp.org/
No wonder he’s such an aggressive c*** – he obviously suffers from SMS – Small Man Syndrome whereby inadequate men who are also short arses try to make up for their lack of height by bullying behaviour – another NuLiebore client for Dolly Drooper methinks – a therapist & a client who truly deserve each other – a match made in heaven.
?? Has this Young Man become an MP as a 2nd Career after already being a talented Movie Actor
I seem to recall him (or someone like him) already appearing as the Brilliant Star of a Cutting-Edge Moving Picture with superhuman powers
* he was pursuing a White Rabbit at a Party
* an attractive Young Demoiselle comes up to him at a Party
* she says :
Neo, it ‘s the Question that drives us
What is the Number ?
Currently the Answer is 998
Now what was the name that Film
His eyes are too close together, so close that he looks like he’s got a squint. His hair’s a disaster and he’s got a pipsqueak of a voice.
And someone should tell him ‘don’t wear brown in town’.
His eyesight might be a bit iffy. If the link in his Wiki entry is anything to go by.
He’s a total twat as well – and even uglier.
The reason his eyes are so close together is so he can see at the same time that he is wearing that horsehair teacosy on his head.
Crikey , what an ugly bird.
I’m guessing that patience is her greatest virtue
That’s no bird. That is the ‘AFTER’ monkey in a Wilkinson sword advert.
What Hunting awful writing (just testing…)! How old is this maladjusted metrosexual Marxman? The last time I read anything quite this awful was in the NME c. 1981… A baphetic barrage of hyphenated hyperbole and pseudo-hipster hebephrenia not fit to wrap one’s (scapular) chips in. Truly, truly awful! And so *dated*, in that way that only doctrinaire left-wing tosspots trying to be *au courant* can seem to acheive. It’s out now. It’s politically relevant. Buy this single.
And to think it’s a Welshman! For shame.
357. I suppose he must be of Welsh extraction, but in reality he’s a Brummy. If he’d gone to school in Wales he wouldn’t have lived this long. He’d have been found unconscious at the bottom of a scrum.
Mouth doesn’t close too well either.
Presumably flies have entered and claimed squatters rights in the otherwise vacated cranium.
Sorry take that back – he must be brainy after all
http://www.culture.gov.uk/about_us/our_ministers/6200.aspx/
“Prior to joining DCMS Siôn was Minister for Further Education, at the Department of Innovation, Universities and Skills.”
Ah so that’s what went badly wrong with Further Education here in the UK – Sion Simon’s mentally retarded Marxist guiding hand.
His name is Neil
You say Twat. I think you are being very polite. Thanks Guido
Guido’s far to polite to say cυnt himself…
Yeah. However Hunts are useful and he is just obnoxious
He’s outhooned Hoon, now that takes some doing
Now that is strange, because that was his nick name at school.
When I found out much later what a Hunt was actually used for. I realized why they used to call him that. Silly me I thought it was just because he looked like one.
However what is even stranger, is that when you write Hoon on this blog it comes out as Hoon. Which is a bit of a Hoon, when you are trying to make a very serious point about this particular Hoons past.
If you type c u n t then it comes out as Hoon, but if you type cυnt then it comes out as cυnt….
and if you type in crackhead it comes up as ‘steve the tramp’!
and if you type in “tat”, it comes out “troll”
shut up you fucking crackhead hobo!
tramps like you are getting far too aggressive these days.
fucking cheeky scum.
get back in your cardboard box steve.
before I cuff your ears. again.
and of you type in “thick as thieves” it comes out as “do you not have a life outside this blog?”
stop lying steve you fucking smackhead.
although I am a delinquent who suffers from a particularly severe case of tourettes I am still, against all the odds, a very productive member of society.
whereas all of your issues are self inflicted steve. you are an ignorant smelly tramp who sits around all day with a crack pipe stuck in your gob begging passers-by to give you money so you can buy your next hit.
I shall take no lectures on how to spend my time from a smelly crackhead tramp like you.
you cheeky c’unt.
oh, and everybody knows that if you type in thick as thieves it says
“TOP BOY!”
INNIT
Hunt
no, c unt still comes out as hoon
http://rightwingery.blogspot.com/2006/10/humourless-prick.html
cυnt
how the fuck do you do that?
Look carefully. Sion Simon is a cυnting cυnt.
Steve Expat isn’t actually using a ‘u’ when he posts the ‘c’ word. If you cut and past his comment to a wp and increase the point size to say 36, then view it a few different fonts, you’ll soon see how it works.
Clever.
And to think I was going to make do with “Sion Simon is a cünt”
“Be quiet while I finish talking”
Why didn’t he just cap it off with ‘beeeeatch!’ while he was at it.
And people voted for this rancid cock-socket? Speechless.
Lost for words – almost. But I can just about manage ‘brain dead, gobshite, self-opinionated, typical NuLiebour, intelligence-free pillock…..
To think that this cretin used to write for the DT! Shit a brick. Keep up the good work you utter bastard, you are clearly making a very great contribution to the destruction of your vile little party at the next GE.
Oh yes, and when you say “My job as a Liebour MP is to support a Liebour government….” I think you may have missed the point old son – you were voted in by the majority of your poor unfortunate constituents to represent THEM. Let’s hope they don’t repeat their mistake.
Exactly and whats all this “Shut up” business. Who the Fuck does he think he is the arrogant little Prick. This guy is a dangerous extremist , a fundamentalist leftie who wishes to silence any and all oppostion to his dogma ! Having said that, its good he is defending his precious Government as he will almost certainly contribute to its decline and ultimate defeat within the next 9 months. Go Sion go !
I want to see more of this type of labour idiot in the media. It’s political car crash telly at its best – fascinatingly excruciating entertainment. Wondrous!
Simon is as much to Digital Britain as Dolly Draper was to intelligent debate and sartorial elegance.
Rancion (Sid) Cock-Socket. I’m going to phone his office and ask for him by name tomorrow.
He was in a meeting.
He makes Dolly Draper seem like a ‘nice guy’
Poor little Anna Botting didn’t deserve that “just shut the fuck-up,bitch, I’m talkin’” attitude displayed by Simon. He didn’t (quite) use those words of course, but the implication was unmistakable. Nasty, nasty little man and the personification of supreme arrogance.
All credit to Anna Botting, she just let him go on and hammer a few more nails into NuLabors coffin.
What a twat that man is.
Looks like Gerard Depadieu’s sister.
Phwaooor!
Perfecto!
Someone should show him the red card…
What’s his majority?
There must be a special effort to oust him!
Obnoxious bastard !!!
He hasn’t reached majority yet. Only today they refused to sell him some glue in Homebase.
Agreed, I would even be willing to vote conservative to get rid of that obnoxious, arrogant, shit for brains twat!!!
9,500, in Birmingham Erdington
2005 Election:
Labour Sion Simon 16,810 53.0%
Conservative Victoria Elvidge 7,235 22.8%
Liberal Democrat Jerry Evans 5,027 15.8%
15.1% swing will see him lose.
Not impossible…
Might mean you need to campaign for the BNP to do it, and that’s not worth it IMHO.
15.1% swing will see him lose.
Not impossible…
Might mean you need to campaign for the BaNdP to do it, and that’s not worth it IMHO.
I don’t much like the Bea En Pea but – as a terminally disillusioned Old Labour man – would be prepared to vote strategically for ANYONE likely to kick that twat out of office, and hopefully out of politics. I will do the same at the general election.
Maybe his constituents will take objection to him claiming £5400 in stamp duty as an expense wholly and necessary to his duties as their MP:
http://mpsallowances.parliament.uk/mpslordsandoffices/hocallowances/allowances-by-mp/sion-simon/Sion_Simon_0708_ACA.pdf
French remake of Mrs Doubtfire.
That article is the biggest pile of shit I’ve seen in ages. Note that it’s dated 25 September 2007 which makes it even funnier. It is, I submit, the best candidate for Private Eye’s Pseud’s Corner that I’ve seen in a long time.
What a hoon!
And Labour wonder why every initiative they commence ends in failure! Just look at the shabby Hunts they engage to pursue their loony ideas! Wot a fuggin’ twat.
Onward comrades to the glorious sunlit uplands of the socialist, green, multiculturaly diverse society that only our superb General Brown and his well-drilled by Gen Mandy troopers of the new Labour army can deliver.
When we mount our carbon-neutrual bicycles we shall sweep the rag tag armies of the rabid right wing capitalist swine before us, as the glorious legions of Rome swept the barbarian hordes aside to usher in a land of milk and honey for all.
Bravo. Nuances of C*arles Halfwit there.
It is likely he’ll be looking for a new job soon.
This article indicates RBS is in the market for head hunting talent.
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/banksandfinance/5990966/RBS-to-keep-paying-bonuses-despite-1bn-first-half-loss.html
Perhaps Nick Leeson is the competition for our trendy lad.
RBS=Robbing Bunch of Scots
Telegraph (By Harry Wallop) 14 Sept 2007: “Thousands of panicked Northern Rock customers have rushed to withdraw millions of pounds out of their accounts, as fears for the future of the bank sent shockwaves throughout the City and caused its shares to crash.” “The Chancellor appealed for calm and insisted that both the banking system and the economy were stable.”
Sion Simon in New Statesman 25th Sept 2007: “The young princes who now stride the parade ground with the confidence born of aristocratic schooling can never be afraid. They never have been. Like latter day Pushkins drilled in the elite academy of Brownian blitzkrieg, they are bursting with their sense of destiny.”
It’s priceless.
I could lend him a couple of kirby grips.
No, he wants a Death Grip from a Royal Marine of the old school.
He’d probably sell his mother for Death Grip from a Royal Marine… in your dreams Sion, in your dreams.
It’s a classic piece of stilted, self-indulgent claptrap. This bloke should be an art critic. They’re all fucking useless, fit-for-nothing knob-heads as well.
‘Shortly there will be an election, in which Labour will increase its majority’
Utter wankstain.
That lad (sorry if the person in question is trans gender) needs a ruddy good haircut & some hetrosexual male friends.
If Labour increase their majority it will indeed prove we are living in an “infinite universe”, where anything – no matter how absurd – can happen, and not in an expanding universe, where all possible events are constrained by the limits of probability (aka reality).
Of course one advantage of us living in an infinite universe would be that Sion could be transformed into baboon immediately after Labour win the coming election!
I think that transformation happened at birth.
The scariest thing about that video SORRY, CAN I FINISH? CAN I FINISH? was the revelation (to me, at least) SORRY, CAN I FINISH? that Sian Fucktard is an MP. Who the fuck voted for him? Many things in this world amaze me – Brown as PM after more than 6 months in Number 10, Mizz Harriet Harlfwit as deputy, Dave Vacuous Socialist Twat Camoron as leader of the Conservatives, the lack of assassination attempts against Tony Warmongering Liar Blair, etc, but an utter fucktard such as Sian as MP? Jesus fucking Christ.
OK, I’VE FINISHED.
Ther’s something mellor about him don’t yer thunk?
A Baboons arse you mean !
needs a ruddy good haircut & some hetrosexual male friends
Difficult to find amongst Nu Liebour
OMG, after his last Radio 4 interview I was sure he would not even have been placed in charge of himself.
He is the least talented employed person I have ever seen.
Was every other man, woman, child and family pet in the UK away on holidays on the day they asked for candidates for the job?
Have I got some computers for you
You still owe me my severance pay. I used to manage Barcelona you know. I am driving a cab now.
Good company.
Could be worse – you could be a Labour MP – and your kids would be totally embarrased
Is this the unfortunate creature that filmed himself in grubby underwear & posted it on the net asking other gentlemen of a similar persuasion to do unseemly things with his nether regions?
Poor boy, so confused & utterly without merit or talent – so just perfect for Neo Labour.
No. That was Chris Bryant MP.
Thank you for the correction.
Apologies to all concerned, I am sure.
You were entirely correct ‘righty right’ he is confused and utterly without merit or talent and just perfect for Neo Labour.
“On 5 September 2006 he and Chris Bryant co-ordinated a letter which was signed by 17 Labour backbenchers calling for Tony Blair to resign.[ The MPs failed to force Mr Blair out of office, but the Prime Minister did publicly pledge to stand down within 12 months” – another wonderful piece of incisive and political foresight by Mr Simon
I’ve seen some spanners in my time but this guy takes the biscuit. Can you imagine him taking that tone with ‘real people’? Somebody would surely smack him straight in the mush in short order.
Yes, he’d last about 30 seconds in a certain pub I frequent.
“What’s your fucking game, mate?”
BIFF!
You selling tickets?
I have seen the name ‘Sion Simon’ bandied about, but never come across the guy before. Having watched the clip, I wish I was still in ignorance. He came across as a boorish, ignorant pedlar of gutter politics of the lowest sort, and looks like an escapee from a low-budget 1980′s rock-and-roll sitcom. If this is Labour’s up and coming talent, then they need to be out of office for a lot longer than a generation.
What an utter hoonlet.
He does seem to be peculiarly gauche. Obviously 38 going on 15.
230 Oh, be fair: 48, going on 12-and-three-quarters.
… two and a bit and still cutting his baby teeth – diddums
His IQ is 38 going on 15. You can put a marxist monkey in a suit but it’s still a marxist monkey
Engineer, do you think he could be our friend Charles here? They are as ignorant and rude as each other, no?
I am as stunned as you. He’s apparently an up-and-coming member of the Labour Party. It beggars belief.
I also detect a teensy weensy little bit of latent anger from little baby Sian – I guess it comes from knowing the Dole Queue beckons after the next General Election. “waa! waa! But I’m sooo clever! Waa! I get to be on TV (albeit Murdoch’s crappy unwatched Sky.) Waaa! Why am I going to be on the dole? Waaa! My mummy thinks I’m clever. Waaa!”
I used to think Labour were doomed to 20 years in the wilderness (2010-2030), but I’ll revise it to 40. They’ve lost it, they have not a hope in hell.
I sincerely hope you’re right, but personally I’m very worried that they’ll get back in thanks to a split vote on the right between the Tories and UKIP. If that does happen, blame Cameron for trying to be all things to all people.
I’m voting UKIP because I have a mind of my own concience and happen to believe that the UK is not totally fucked and is savable when pride and a new course is offered to those with hope to invest after their wages and savings have been turned to tax by the current lot. Anyway, if labourcon get back in there will likely be war which also gives hope with which to invest in the possible outcome.
No, blame Cameron for being another EU cock sucker. The majority of this country want out of the EU, while Cameron and slap head Hague still talk of in Europe but not run by Europre, while Patten grooms himself for a nice spot on the gravy train when Dave lets the EU constitution become the law of the land.
Any “up and coming” members of the labour Party are akin to persons on the Titanic making their way up from the engine room to the top deck just before the ship goes down.
The lads that were in the engine room of the Titanic were the last to try and get off. When they were unable to keep the pumps going any longer they went up to the poop deck. When they got there, there were no lifeboats left and they all perished. They stood by the ship until the last. They were brave men who put other people’s welfare before their own.
Can you imagine a Labour MP doing anything as selfless as that? Answers on a postcard please.
@Bottle-fed Triplet
It would be “comrades and commissars first” on the lifeboats when nulabour are involved. Everyone else would be left to drown.
What technical & real world qualifications has this man got to be in charge of digital Britain?
Anyone know?
Is this just another non job with a huge salary for another member the gay mafia at the heart of New Labour?
According to his constituency website, he as “educated” at Magdalene College Oxford. His Wikipedia page states merely that he “enrolled” and there is no mention of any degree or other qualifications.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Si%C3%B4n_Simon
What does he need – Dr James Gordon Brown’s qualifications including his PhD about the history of the Labour party in Scotland (1918-29) were all he needed to become an unrivalled Chancellor and PM?
Any mention of psychology degrees from degree farms in the US?
No, space aliens stole it.
There is a rumour that he has got a 25yard unassisted swimming proficiency certificate awarded by the pool owner(his dad)
He passed his Cycling Proficiency Test.
Ah I might have guessed, Browns PHD in naval gazing. Of course he’s not the only “educated” mp from Scotland who studied themselves at Uni. They have a very narrow education it would seem.
Should not think it is naval gazing. He would not know a warship if if rammed him up the chuff!
Naval gazing – Hello Sailor?
Almost certainly a member of the Boy Scouts, dib dib.
In the Land of the Blind – the one eye’d is King
In the Land of the one eye’d – tossers are!
Cruel but fair – he suffers from a rare genetic disorder choroideremia, a condition that leads to progressive blindness.
Another poor innocent seeing eye dog soon to be cursed with a c**t as an owner then
Presumably he’s only in charge of the middle digit.
11 Incipient Blindness: very useful for a Labour politician.
11. Yes
So which fucking village has lost it’s idiot?
Ugly cυnt just doesn’t cover it. Are we sure this isn’t the real Fuckwidge?
My thoughts entirely !!! Shhhhhhhhit!
Forget Digital Britain, this Hoon would struggle to be in charge of a Digatal Watch!!
‘Vote Labour’- Working in partnership to move decimal points, digitally.
And what’s wrong with analogue?
I think that the NS article is an all-time classic.What a total knob!
It even beats Chris Bryant’s dramatic appearance on the internet clad in his underpants.
CEH
It is impossible for anyone to hand out tax freebies. You can hand out benefit freebies, subsidy freebies or grant freebies.
Allowing someone to keep their own money by reducing tax is no freebie.
Please Charles will you stop these silly postings, not all Labour supporter are daft, you are not helping our cause…
An oxymoronic orison of guided misloyalties as sharp and street-savvy as a Red Wedge concert.
Red Wedge saved the people from Fatcher mate and got the miners their jobs back – and sold a shit load of records to fund my nice big Dorset house. Not that I approve of capitalisim in any form you understand.
Billy Bragg of Barking.Says it all.
Yer, an dont ferget the car factories and steel works and the shipyards and docks what are full of cheerful workers. After Fatcher’s 18 years of Tory misrule, Tony and Gordon have abolished boom and bust and they’re giving full employment to all!
p.s. Not forgetting regular BBC appearances for Pete Seeger wanabees, of course!!!
Put this man in an orange suit and waterboard him.
Or put him in a monkey suit and let him loose in a cage full of randy chimps. He’d love it.
On second thoughts, a monkey suit would be over doing it; he could go as he is.
The only digitals he’s in charge of are on his wanking hand.
Ha! I need to clean the coffee out of my keyboard now! True Class!
Is this nothing more than a wind-up?
You’re a wind up you tossit spoof
Jerk? I bet that’s what you do all night!
He’s obviously part of the ongoing bentrification of politics.
What A Great Guy He Get’s My Vote
I’ve just watched a crude take-off he did of Dave, with unpleasant suggestions about Dave’s wife, on YouTube – what is it about Labour that they have to make themselves look complete twits on youtube???? and then I read that he was forced to apologise over comments he made about sus*n b*yle.
I was very struck by his unsavoury innapropriate smutty schoolboy ‘humour’ and how similar it was to the ‘humour’ being peddled by the people involved in redrag. Coupled to that he is apparently a pal of TWatson’s. Says it all1!!!
He doesn’t look to me as if he’s capable of dressing himself let alone taking charge of Digital Britain.!!
They always seem to have a go at Samantha don’t they? Why doesn’t Harm Men give them all a good talking to, or is she only a ‘feminist’ on behalf of Labour bints?
Tory women don’t count. Aunt Hattie is she who came out with the immortal line while answering Q’s to the Leader of the House, “Margaret Thatcher did nothing for women”.
Come on Susie, Labour cannot bear to be reminded that we once had a female head of state and a female head of government at the the same time despite the “feminist” ranting of the left.
Blair’s Babes = Patronising women
Also, generally, very ugly & often very thick, a bit like No-Ball’s bint at the Treasury.
Brown’s Babes = Disappearing women!!
“My friend Tom Watson” says it all really. This arse was obviously one of Browns stormtroopers used to get rid of Blair !
I thought you flagged Simon last year, Guido? Isn’t this one old news that has got in by accident?
He’s always good for a good kicking.
(He probably called Guido a cυnt as he walked by The Westminster Arms. Nowt like a bit of retaliation).
Exactly – this guy has form-
Have to agree. However, it would be nice to see it played out on a big screen in Birmingham during the GE.
As usual with these NuLabour fucks, no mention of wealth creation, how we are going to get the country moving again, just stuck in their own little world.
The cnut needs a haircut, scruffy twat
Never trust a man with a parting down the middle, and that’s only his pubes.
He’s actually had one – this clip is some time ago
I thought a brown paper bag – make that TWO paper bag in case one rips – over his head would be an improvement? Hide his appearence & muffle his voice.
Wonder if he still thinks Labour are going to increase their majority? Even at the time that article was written, the most likely outcome seemed to be a hung parliament.
Some people have their heads in the clouds, others in the sand. Sion’s seems to be up Gordon Brown’s backside.
It’s getting a bit crowded in here.
This is undeniable proof of how utterly panic stricken NuLab are about Cameron and teh certainty of his Party’s overwhelming victory in the Election. The lisping, inarticulate and rudely agressive perfornmance by this guy will be a huge lift to the Conservatives. Bring on more of him!
What he says proves that his mate Watson was involved in Smeargate, this is more of the same, not that I’m going to watch this ‘juvenile’ shite.
There’s a good point being alluded to here; NuLiebour (at last) are starting to realise the size of the mess they have created over the past years and are (re)releasing this to make absolutely sure that they are in no danger whatsoever of being returned at the next GE because they have no idea how to fix what they’ve created? What a bunch of hypocritical cowards…
You don’t have to be in Labour to be panic striken at the prospect of Cameron and Conservative winning at the next election.
“My… My friend Tom Watson… who put the video up for me…”
Tom Watson (a “proppa Blogga” according to the the scruffy freak) really should choose his friends more carefully.
Oh FFS, who ordered the tripe and onions?
I really think it is time you did something about this grasshopper you keep seeing.
A serious session of therapy might work, but what I think you really need would have a very serious consequence both for you and the person applying the treatment.

Sorry, your time is up.
Dear All
Sion Simon has written what can only be described as the biggest pile of shit on the New Statesman.
He is like an English Eric Joyce clone.
A comic writer is born it seems either that or a guy who is looking to acquire fruit and veg.
Yours sincerely
George Laird
The Campaign for Human Rights at Glasgow University
So him and Chris Bryant are actually MP’s?
Shocking! This man is an MP!! He can’t even talk coherently. There is hope for me yet; I should stand at the next election- If they vote for him, they would vote for me. Just need to hoodwink some party then all the expenses will be mine. nyahahah!!
If elected I will do the right thing; print 175 billion pounds and buy everyone a house..
Sorry, George. I know we’re both in Show Business but I’m assured that just about everybody in the whole country (Luton South included) will be voting for me.
…and a couple of rounds of ‘leaning on a lamp post’ would go well!!
Hanging from a lampost?
I’m hanging from a lampost at the corner of the street
and can’t begin to even understand why
Oh me Oh my
I only sucked my countrymen dry
53 -and a ukelele !!
Sion, like his Wallace and Grommit namesake, could do with trip to the Salon. That mane of his is too much of a distraction. If he didn’t drop Cameron’s name every 5th word then I’d swear he was talking aboout his own pitiful YouTube diatribe.
I’ve got some time on my hands at the moment, let’s see if I can find a better example of oxymoronic behaviour on the net – somehow I doubt it. I think the young lady (sorry, I don’t watch sky news so no idea who she is) will be sending him a xmas card this year – a shit-burger maybe. What a rude little turd he was.
Master Po: Close your eyes. What do you hear?
Young Caine: I hear the water, I hear the birds.
Po: Do you hear your own heartbeat?
Caine: No.
Po: Do you hear the grasshopper that is at your feet?
Caine: Old man, how is it that you hear these things?
Po: Young man, how is it that you do not
Caine: It could be that I’m not a deluded old fucker with dementia.

Did he have his hair styled for a bet?
No, hair style from a bat
No, hairstyle for a twat
If he painted himself green, he’d be quite good as a Shrek lookalike.
Shrek is handsome compared to that
can we use the cliip of this twat like Private Eye use the image of Andrew Neil in the singlet? What a total freakshow this bloke is… not sure whether to laugh or cry…
Err…Charles, you’re still living with mummy remember?
Have look at his expenses
http://mps-expenses.guardian.co.uk
Nice to see him buy a very expensive MacBook Air when they came out instead of the rather more prudent versions available for a lot less money. Or even just a HP/Tosh/Lenovo one instead for about a grand less.
There is no justifiable reason for buying that machine other than “I like it”
Stupid twat.
And who on earth is Susan Hayes and what were the multiple payments directed through expenses to her for?

“Young Persons” cheap return fare. YP railcards are for 18-25 year olds. Was the card for himself or a friend (it doesn’t say), or was he trying to defraud the rail company by claiming he was 14 years younger than he actually was? With his evident behaviour and greasy curtain hairstyle (assuming it hasn’t changed in the last 2 years) I’m sure he could pass for an embittered, stroppy teenager.
What an utter, utter hoon.
I hope everyone in Birmingham Erbindton paid special attention to the bit where he said that his primary purpose was to fight for the re-election of a Labour government. As opposed to representing his constituents, say…
Or even Erdington.
*yawn* correcting other people’s typos is sooo dull.
There is only one o in so.
Ahoy there, leave off!
What is it with these New Labour types? There was a time when Labour was full of down-to-earth honest working people. These days it’s full of pretentious idiots. They have no vision, no ideas of their own, just a desire for power at whatever cost. That isn’t what Labour is about.
Labour needs to get back to honesty and integrity. It needs to get rid of the Sion Simons, the Peter Mandelsons, and the other professional buffoons who have hijacked it. At present, it is run by career politicians who couldn’t give a damn about their party, or even their country. While many of them are very intelligent, there is barely an ounce of common sense between anyone in this shambolic government.
++applause++
Here’s his own version of his life history.
He joined the Labour Party aged 16 in 1985.
After university Siôn worked for the then George Robertson MP (now Lord Robertson of Port Ellen) as his research assistant, before going on to become a senior manager at Guinness PLC. He then freelanced for a while before becoming a weekly columnist on the Daily Telegraph, Daily Express and News of the World as well as associate editor of The Spectator.
Siôn was elected to Parliament to represent the Birmingham Erdington seat during the 2001 election, and was re elected in 2005 with the biggest Labour majority in Birmingham.
In Parliament Siôn has sat on the Treasury Committee. He was also a Parliamentary Private Secretary between 2003 and 2005, chaired Labour’s manifesto group on law and order, the all party group on private equity and venture capital and the all party group on business services.
During his time as an MP, Siôn has worked to represent the people of Erdington both in Parliament and locally. He has led campaigns to secure the future of the Jaguar Plant, to ensure Erdington gets it fair share of lottery funding and to improve youth services. He has also dealt with thousands of cases on behalf of individual constituents and stakeholders such as schools, doctors, businesses, voluntary groups and so on.
In October 2008 Siôn was promoted to Minister for Further Education in the then Department for Business, Innovation and Skills and in the June 2009 reshuffle, Siôn was appointed Minister for Creative Industries, at the Department for Culture, Media and Sport.
He’d be joining Ben (down) Bradshaw then!
Ben bradshaw, ……. you silly boy.
What about a Minister for Destructive Industries? Arms manufacturers and demolition contractors deserve some love, kindness and public subsidy too!
Are we sure he wasn’t appointed Minister for Bullshit?
He worked for George Robertson, you say?
He could be his son.
They both have those odd little mouths and flat faces that make them look like Easter Island statues.
Interesting parallels there with The Parteh’s Joan Collins lookalike Dame Suzi Leather (sic). Degree, researcher, writer, freelancer – all indicative of the bog-standard non-entity’s downward career path. Then suddenly catapulted into a very major job, followed by others with significant political responsibilities.
How did they do that? I can only think 40 days and nights in the desert, and Goethe, as the only alternative is a Borg with far more control than I have previously imagined.
Perhaps they’re just not very fussy about who they sleep with? Round heels & a willing nature (willing to do absolutely anything, with anybody, at any time a.k.a. the Martini Syndrome) still gets incompetents into high places.
I have seen no evidence of ‘intelligence’ amongst the members of the current Labour party – or at least, not from the thieving, lying scum in Westminister. Could you provide an example?
“My job as a Labour MP is to support the Labour government and to work for the re-election of another Labour government…”.
[I split this sentance just to allow you to pause and take it in.]
“…and the way to do that is to point out the egregious, shallow, patronising ways of the Tory [sic] and their leader.”
No it’s not, wankstain. How about instead running the fucking country properly, telling the fucking truth and actually becoming fucking accountable. That’s your fucking job and if you do it properly you will get fucking re-elected. Instead you waste your fucking time and energy on character assasination. Nobski.
I don’t usually swear.

Yin attracts Yin. Yang attracts yang. It’s why I advocate routing around the shrill and partisan by keeping it calm and readable. This may take a little insight and cause a little personal discomfort but a more mature position can be developed.
The Tories are doing a great job of alienating anyone who might have sympathy with them at a national and more everyday level. Sure, it gets attention but it ultimately ends up biting them in the ass.
Be still, grasshopper.
Sorry Charles, but the Sion Simon video alienates me, just like those puggy union leaders did in the 70s. We need to get back to honest debate about our future and the future of our country. Your waffle is not helping.

I don’t usually use language like this – but Sion Simon, WHAT a WANKER! His constituency must be very proud to have such a colossus as their MP! Or maybe not. What an absoulte wanker of the first degree. I think I’d rather MP with “generous expenses”, but gravitas, than a House of Commons full of Sion Simons. I’d forgotten what a wanker that guy is. The mind boggles.
If you want a good example of why Labour are in such dire straits, Sion Simon fits the bill perfectly. It’s these idiots that have messed up so badly running the country.
If there were a Nobel prize for idiocy, I fear New Labour would have had several winners over the past few years. Actually, it’s probably the only thing they would win – at least until the Tories have been in power for a few years.
I could not believe bombastic tripe he uttered was said seriously.
He actually sounds like a young Fred Kite but in his case its for real not a black comedy.
How the fxxx did this obnoxiuos dickhead ever get a vote from anyone?
Birmingham, think of the demographics old boy – the religion of peace (believe it our we kill you) vote, the bent postal votes, the dole dosser vote you know all core Labour voters like that.
Postal voting – it’s what Labour do
75% of his constituents don’t speak English so they don’t know what rubbish he’s spouting. They see the red rosette, and they vote
He’s a different sort of Beast pf Bolsover – sort of!
It does make you wonder just what kind of half-wits would vote for this clown. How bad were the other candidates? The mind boggles.
What do you think of his Conservative opponent at the nest election?

no contest Sir Willy, you win!
At least he washes his hair and doesn’t appear to bite the heads off Sky TV reporters.
But, does he bite his nails?!
Indeed contessa, he may have a poncy haircut and a suit from the best booteek in the High Street but he still bites his nails and probably doesn’t change his socks every day. So much so, that when his mam comes to visit some are better buried at the bottom of the garden than washed.
Looks a likely lad. When does he finish Uni?
BIrmingham Erdington hasn’t had a non Labour MP since the end of WWII – therefore I suspect that the quality of any of Simon’s opponents will be irrelevent, given that we’re talking about voters who would gladly put Peter Sutcliffe or Ian Brady in parliament provided they were wearing a red rosette.
F*** me, it’s Derek Drooper after a scrub down & wearing one of Kate’s blouses. I didn’t know he’s turned Conservative.
Don’t worry Sion, I love rank, unwashed hair and grubby underpants that smell of shit.
And so do I.
Jack Super Trougher Straw Has JUst Released Ronnie Biggs As Of Tomorrow !Wonder How Much He Bunged Straw?

How much did Guido pay the lifeguard?

In fact you could already get free treatment from GPs and hospitals before the NHS. It was, however, means-tested. The NHS for the first time extended free medical treatment to the middle class and the better-off working class. It also nationalised all hospitals and GPs in the name of a comprehensive joined-up service, with considerable success but at a very heavy cost in crushing bureaucracy.
There was initially a big effort at modernisation, but the NHS quickly ran out of money and was only truly ‘free’ for a few months, after which prescription charges were introduced.
Other countries (such as then-socialist France and the Netherlands) adopted different systems to provide universal healthcare, free at the point of delivery, without the deadweight of a centralised command-and-control structure.
This was a reply to one of Charles’ more serious comments. It looks daft on its own – sorry. There’s some gibberish from CEH about yin and yang that I expect will be modded out too.
….and dental charges. And opticians fees. GP’s would only work on a self -employed basis. Thet set the charges and GP’s enjoyed an enhanced standard of troughing only surpassed by the recent settlement giving the crafty £250,000 pa.
Silly boy!
Are you quite sure he’s not Claire Short in drag?
Uncanny resemblance – even the voice is suspiciously similar.
Never see them together, do you?
Well I’ll be ferked! I was composing 105 as you posted. Proves there’s something in it though. We must have them tested!
Might be one of her bastard sons?

Charles
Do you really think that by continuously posting Labour orientated propaganda on this discussion you’ll convince one person to support this government and G BROWN? Frankly I do not think you’ll be successful but please continue as I truly find your posts most droll. I also have been sending them out to people as examples of mindless political monomania.
May I also suggest you pop over to the Labourlist website? I think they could do with your most valuable input.
Oh, and just to stay on topic…Mr Simon methods of dealing with the media are hardly the polished methods that I would have expected of New Labour. Has the demise of T Blair also led to the end of training for MPs on how to handle the media?
Grasshopper? With ketchup please.
Do you think he even reads the posts on this site or any of the replies?
Don’t bother.
Mike – don’t bother engaging with it.
It’s a troll – it doesn’t read or even care about your post.
It’s Clare Short after a testosterone accident.
The lad needs a slap and, after due consideration , a pasting.
Claire Short at least had a modicum of integrity and eventually resigned from the Cabinet. Sion Simon is a man who would appear to be prepared to descend to any depths in order to serve his masters that he might in turn become a master.
Imagine, what Cabinet post this man might be given if NewLabour were to win a fourth term?
Cue Colonel Kurtz….
Clare Short was taken in by that blair bastard, which wasn’t very clever.
Claire Short lost any integrity when she threatened to resign and didn’t
She also always ranks in the upper echelons of expense claims – I don’t actually mind her that much as a politician, but she is amongs the worst troughers every year.

The British tend to be too hooked on beating people into the ground and their social skills are shot to pieces. By encouraging better quality negotiation between management and workforce, and within broken communities and families, the government is developing something useful but it hasn’t, yet, become the dominant cultural approach.
Be still, grasshopper.
I’ll give you about another 5 seconds Fuckwidge.
Bye!
Have some respect for the British, they do not beat people into the ground, most are supportive of their neighbours and communities. They don’t need ANY government sticking their nose in.
They want to hear us being honest, honest about the future with real life solutions they can understand, not the crap that this post writes, nor waffle from Gordon. Where did the Labour party go?

It appears that we socially unskilled oiks are keeping Mr Hardskin from the Ambassador’s reception.
You have to be joking…..that man is an MP?………please no…..
He’s not only an MP, he’s a junior minister FFS.
Oh Great…….this world is turning into that film Idiocracy if he holds such a position……
Yes, being 40, fat and longhaired, allegedly a Magdalen alumnus yet affecting urban “yoofspeak” then having the sheer front to accuse Cameron of the same thing, he’s an unusual thing, an honest advert for New Labour.
He is like some thing of Kevin And Perry………
Well it shows doesn’t it??– how gordon has had to scrape the barrel for people to serve with him in government.
Even Labour MP’s don’t want to be associated with gordon’s cabinet and government – I wonder why??!! I suspect they think too close an association with gordon will make them unelectable next time around.
But then, of course, it means that all those who are serving as ministers, are just absolute trash.
After watching the clip I thought that Gordon had probably scraped the sole of his boot to find this pillock.
The problem isn’t lack of leadership or relevance at the bottom, it’s arrogance and greed at the top that’s the problem. It actively constrains opportunity and marginalises people as it competes for the available capital without restraint, and is a major reason why the financial crisis occurred.
You can see a similar mechanism operate in this blog every day. As the pro-Tory trolls insist their version of the “truth” is right and jockey for attention they get more nuts and unpleasant as each day goes by. Their belief that they’re the only ones who are right and desire to own the whole cake has driven everyone else away.
Be still, grasshopper.
I’m pretty sure some of the policy positions the Tories take and a lot of the negative emotional subtext is just blah. They’re only saying it to get into power and win popularity. It’s typical opportunism and negative campaigning. Again, you get a lot of that around here from the wannabes.
Be still, grasshopper.
The global downturn has created a lot of problems for the UK economy. We would like to hear the truth from the Government that has been in power for 12 years, our government. I believe it when the Tories say there need to be cuts. Why won’t our guys have the balls to stand up and say it as it is…!!!

Be curried, grasshopper.
So you are Sion Simon after all.
I bet Sion would not recognise a bit (binary digit) if it bit him on his nose.

He looks like the bastard son of Clare Short and Worzel Gummage.

I have no idea what you just said you stupid troll. it made no sense whatsoever.
I speak English. write in English you fucking dimwit.
cretin.
If I recall correctly, co-conspirators of yore came to the conclusion that Bhownaggree who used to post various paeans of praise for the New Labour project and its current leader was really Sion Simon. After that, Bhownaggree apparently left the blog although he did rear his ugly head once during the Euro elections.
It’s not so big a jump then to suppose that charlie who is clogging up this blog like triffids in the air conditioning , is probably someone like damian or TWatson?
These Labour people all seem to be tarred with the same brush don’t they?
Are you sure it was his ugly head and not his ugly short-arsed -sorry his ugly vertically challenged arse!!!
At last, although he looks and sounds a complete Hunt, a ZaNuLieborist speaking the truth:
At 3min. 24 secs. “my job as a liebor mp is to support the liebor government and work for the re-election of another liebor government”
No mention there of working for the workers, or constituents or anyone else in fact just an ego based power trip by a narrow eyed, God where do they find them, twat!
On a quiet day you put up Sion Simon.
Guarantees 500 “What a Hunt” posts.
Sly bastard Guido.
Yeah, well sex sells dunnit?
On the ballot paper it must have said, “Please vote for who you think is the ugliest fucker.”
Where the fuck is his constituency and what does it say about those who voted for him, scary, very very scary!

‘Nuff said.
Let’s judge all cities by the quality of their worst MP!

Who Voted Him In ? A Gang Of Nuckle,Draggers One Suspects !
David Cameron sold himself on being a Christian and having marketing skills, and the guy has near zero morality and markets stuff like some office junior sent on a box ticking course. The more he’s tried to look like a leader the more he’s hollowed himself out. It’s a clear case of overstretch.
Be still, grasshopper.
Cnut off, cock-picker.
Voters are turned off by this negative crap, Charles, sorry mate, I suspect you are trying to drum up support for NuLabour but it don’t cut it.
Supporters are honest hard working people who want to hear positive solutions to the problems as they see them.
We should work together to get people like Sion Simom with their stupid remarks out of our party.
Why don’t you people realise its people like you and Sion Simom that will lose us the election and let the Tories in. Just like those Union clowns let Thatcher in all those years ago.
Tony Bliar sold himself on being a Pillock and having marketing skills, and the guy has near zero morality and markets stuff like some office junior sent on a box ticking course. The more he tried to look like a leader the more he hollowed himself out. It’s a clear case of overstretch.
Be fricassed, grasshopper.
130 is not the CEH we know and love. Too much addressing issues and not enough inane flannel. Could CEH be a consortium?
Definitely. They gave the job to ‘work experience’ while the others went down the pub.
A consortium of c***s?
I don’t understand why a nice lass like Lara Croft would want to chase that ridiculous hoon around the world…
Is Sion per chance related to this?
OMG – La-bore have Cloning technology!
That scared the hell out of me.
Only a Mother could love that – and even then, that was only because Old Pa Brown beat her nightly until she did.
The Tories just want lurid claims and negativity to stick.
What they don’t want is a real examination of the management and class issues that played a massive part in the failures that Thatcherism spawned, and how it laid the foundations of today’s financial meltdown.

Positive thoughts for the people Charles Tut Tut..!!
Old Labour, I know many Labour people who are sincere, wellmeaning, honest folk but where the f*** have you dredged up scum like CEH & sion Simon? And why?
And Blair and Brown could not achieve anything in the 12 years in charge because
OK, so what is the secret of some comments getting through the system with the far more apt and descriptive ‘C’ word rather than the hoon word, this guy deserves the full description!
Simon truly is the arch Westminster Hunt among Hunts.
A vacuous, self-regarding, preposterous gobshyte of the first order, and of course a fantastically, extravagantly, magnificently pointless spunk-bubble.
He is therefore the perfect poster boy for the wretched, worthless, empty, dumbed-down, we know best, NeoLabour party
Come on, out with it, no more beating about the bush, get it off your chest….
Can’t be arsed to read any more comments. Most are fairly accurate, but yours has him down to a T. ( Would also be applicable to piggy watson and the rest of the nulab massive).
Don’t hold back, we’re all amongst friends – you can speak your mind.
It’s a fact that under Thatcherism that apprenticeships and middle-management training was almost destroyed. This undermined business skill and savvy, and has led directly to industrial failure and management greed.
By giving people this opportunity the green shoots of a better Britain are being nurtured.
Be still, grasshopper.
Yes its all Maggies fault, and only Labour can borrow money to keep the scroungers at bay, but what about this sion gobshyte

But Charles we have been in power for 12 years, time enough to undo evil Thatchers sins, no?
We should have built a lot more social housing, if you can’t do that in a housing boom when can you?

The Tory campaign is a near identical copy of the Republican approach. They’re making a bunch of fundamental errors in policy and attitude. Their policies don’t add up and their people don’t measure up. Their solution? Press harder on the gas pedal.
The more the Tories insist they’re “right” and the more their desire for power seizes them, the more they’ll look like they’re losing the plot and chewing the carpet. Their ego is now so tinder dry that a mere breeze causes the tiniest of sparks to burst into raging flame.

WE need to be told of these “fundamental errors in policy and attitude” and why our are better, Charles.
The people are judging you.
Labour continue to get under the problem and act as if the Tory party don’t exist. This helps focus all effort on getting the job done, and has the neat side effect that the Tories scream louder as their desperation for attention and credibility reaches ever more dizzying heights.
So much for “Cool Dave” and the Tories. They’re looking more like General Grievous and the Roger-Rogers every day. Master Jedi Gordon Brown is opening them up with his policy lightsaber like a can of beans. Heck, even the C3PO and R2D2 act of Darling and Prescott are cleaning their clock.
Bah. Sith were never too bright…

Its a bit like NuLabour talk the talk but no follow through.
The party will need some time in opposition, time to clear out rubbish like you. We did it in the 80s will will do it again.
It was the ‘clearing out’ in the 1980′s that created a generation of Labour fuckwits like him.
Which lead us to a fucked up Labour government and a fucked economy.
Its a bit like NuLabour talk the talk but no follow through
A dry fart, in other words.
I read this week that Tesco are handing over meat past its sell by date to be incinerated to generate electricity.
Push this useless pile of shit to the front of that queue.
I wouldn’t have labour remnants in my house if they had been made mothballs. facist basturds as you limeys used to say about facist european oriented political misfits and war-ing murderers. Etc.
Prenty Of Dead Meat Affer Next Erection !
Britain is appallingly bad at leadership and teamwork, but by giving people chances to develop proper skills and meet other people the foundations of tomorrow’s thinking and cooperative leaders, entrepreneurs, and community leaders is being formed. Tory paranoia just proves they want to sell people the illusion of success but will oppose anything that really changes things.
Be still, grasshopper.
Britain is pretty good at leadership and teamwork, and by giving people chances to develop proper skills and meet other people the foundations of tomorrow’s thinking and cooperative leaders, entrepreneurs, and community leaders could be formed. Labour paranoia just proves they want to sell people the illusion of success but will oppose anything that really changes things.
Be lunch, grasshopper.
Yeah right there Charles.. look who is our leader…!!!
That is the third time he has repeated this post.
I don’t have to be smart or do anything when the Tories are so dumb and shoot themselves in the back.
p0wned.
Be still, grasshopper.
I don’t have to be smart or do anything when Labour are so dumb and shoot themselves in the back.
Wibble.
Be smoked, grass.
3 minute turnaround, very good.
You do have to be smart, Charles, the british people have put their trust in the Labour and gave us the chance. The chance to undo all Thatchers evil. But no, have we, where is the free milk, the shipbuilders, the dockers, the steelworkers. All we did was create a housing boom that has left this country in the shit. Where is the REAL labour party?
You’re taking the piss right? The dockers? You want the dock Labour scheme back?
Or even the groundnut scheme… Another Labour initiative of yore that’s well worth a Google!
Undo Thatcher’s evil? Your wish is my command. It has been done – Nuliebore has already taken us right back to 1979 and then some.
They’ve been sitting on the newlabour backbenches, being regularly whipped. The spineless milksops.
NuLabour & Gordon McSnot are intent on taking Britain back to Year Zero, along with all the other excesses of Pot Pol’s regime, never mind just to pre-Thatcher days.
The other day I was mowing the lawn when a bright green grasshopper jumped on to the handle of the mower. I was just reflecting on how perspicacious the grasshopper was to avoid being run over by the lawnmower when a robin swooped down and carried it off in its beak.
I draw no conclusion from this and it is totally irrelevant to the thread.
Not at all. I had a huge green grasshopper slide slowly up the windscreen of my car as I drove to the vets with my pet cuckoo the other morning. No amount of saying “be still, grasshopper” was going to work so I put the wipers on and the poor little chap flew over the cuckoo’s nest.
Pure newspeak. ‘…shallow, egregious, patronizing…’
I try not to quote Burns because he’s shit but he does have an apposite quote for this arsehole….
‘O wad some Power the giftie gie us -To see oursels as ithers see us..’
All that shallow, egregious, patronizing… that’s Harmen. That’s Brown. That’s Straw. That’s Blair. That’s this Simon wanker. That’s this fucking Labour government to a ‘T’.
It’s all transference.
Socialism and capitalism are mere perspectives of an underlying reality. The Tao suggests that everything arises from the Yin (or female, or Socialist), and that the Yang (or macho, or Capitalism) always collapses back into the Yin.
You can see a similar dynamic in communication or marketing. The punchy, shrill, and cheap blow looks powerful and get a lot of attention for little effort (like Guido Fawkes), but the more subtle, long-term, and gentle always prevails.

Be shagged, arsegroper.
Charles, I won’t beat about the bush: you talk shit.
At least try to be funny…your crappy purple prose looks like it’s copied and pasted from a combination of Nulabour press releases and the ramblings of an addled acid-head in a group therapy session.
It’s dire stuff, it really is, and if you’re the best that labour trolls can come up with, then they really are scraping the congealed sediment from the bottom of the sewer.
Have one last try: be funny, be creative, be anything but the sad, sorry sack of shit that you come across as.
If he was funny or creative,it would be interesting. The whole purpose of him is to stifle the blog. I don’t think its a Labour sponsored attack,more a random bomber or somebody with a personal grudge.
‘Somebody with a personal grudge against Guido ‘
Hmm I wonder who that might be ??
You need to remember that Guido’s blog is in the spotlight. A lot of people come here for the limelight: some bloggers shamelessly to advertise their own blogs (and I have to say some are excellent) and some to get their name in the public domain.
As for his name, it is ephemeral; for as the hooker said, I was having it rammed into me all last night, it was on the tip of my tongue this morning but now it’s gone.
This is the seventh time he has repeated this post.
This is just my view but, I believe, strong leadership by America and China as economic superpowers, and Britain and Japan as gateways to Europe and Asia, respectively, could be the cornerstones of a new world order that ushers in the global renaissance predicted by the UN.
Buddhism suggests that procrastination isn’t just a matter of being scared of the unknown, but fear of success. People can be so unused to seizing opportunity that they freeze, preferring to stick with the familiar. Perhaps, Gordon’s gamble is the new sensible.
Be still, grasshopper.
You are wasting your time responding in kind to this man’s output of shite.
Let go. Guido will mod him out when he gets back from the fridge.
Quite. He is not here to engage but to lay a log and move on.
He has only repeated this post three times.
I don’t read them so I wouldn’t know. But do keep up the sterling work, Record Keeper.
This Simon individual is a right arsehole isn’t he? What sort of a world are we living in where patronising, vacuous arseholes like this are voted into government?
We are living in a land where the apathetic populace allow themselves to be enslaved by a political class of cretins that have colluded to destroy all freedom to protest. Apart from ranting on a blog.
Don’t underestimate the power of the blog and the internet.
Look at how it exposed damian and played a big part in exposing the MP’s expenses scam.
And if this Labour govt gets elected for a fourth term (God forbid) just watch them as they try and shut the blogs down.
What is that saying ‘the pen is mightier than the sword’
Well it ain’t, “the pen is mightier than the keyboard”.
Well maybe it should be ‘the blog is mightier than the sword’
and the barmy army will rule the stands lad
The penis, mightier than the sword
Wot’d I do? I’m a propa blogga.
Shut up and let me talk shite…
And what’s wrong with my article? I thought it was fucking great… I didn’t understand it, but it did have some big words in it.
Fuck the lot of you… well, my wife will.
It is noticable that after a plethora of posts,and few responses,the ‘entity’ that is so despised here disappears.
Only when it manages to engage the unwitting blogger does it re-emerge with a vengeance.
Moral of this observation?
Ignore the inane and insane… it soon tires and will be gone.
Good shout Mr Sleeper. We are all little fishies and should ignore the worm dangling on the hook.
Here’s a bit of Games Theory we can use: every time the entity posts, don’t bite, don’t react, don’t condemn: just post a verifiable fact about Charles’ fave Partei and/or Ideology, the more unpleasant, unflattering, and damning the better. Dig deep, unearth the obscure stuff they’d thought (or wished) we’d forgotten about. That way, he will serve a useful purpose. Fight spin with truth.
Then, when he’s ordered off the job, we can start on the other parties!
So the pathetic Mr Sion and his boss Mr Timms are taking charge of Digital Britain- not much hope of moving the project forward then ? Because the one thing this Labour government lacks is forward motion.
Interesting that their overall boss is now Mandy – yet another expansion of his growing empire – he must hold the record for the most powerful unelected man in government ever.
Mandy has got “Project Manager” on his CV. Don’t forget he was the man who “delivered” the Millenium Dome on time and on budget.
He’s got 10 months to make Britain “digital”, woteva dat means.
On time, yes (the date not being movable), but on budget? Oh no. The Hinduja brothers, they of the passports rushed through at no one’s particular request (or so both inquiries said) promised £1M for the Dome. They eventually stumped up a third of a million.
Many sponsors pulled the same stunt. The shortfall and the overspend was made up from lottery funds. You know, that money for good causes.
Both targets were manipulated to suit. Like a new hotel in Torrelmolinos the full scope wasn’t actually finished at the end of 1999 and much of the budget was taken off the books.
My Lord has ordained the following in the quest for Digital Britain..The next election count will be done using the Binary Code….All other party votes will be allocated the number Zero, and all the votes for The Great Leader will be allocated the number One..Then all the votes can be added up, and the Great Leader will win…Now how much more digital do you want!!!!
Timms models himself on Brown. He’s even working on the jaw tic.
Timms works from side to side, the Gorgon’s from top to bottom.
Mouth update, – Timms chews the cud, the gorgon, – all slobber and gorram.
there is no more labour , its been hijacked by a cult lead by gordon and tony lads
That’s right Freddie. A cult. Filled with cultists. I wish the fuckers would take make sure they’ve got some change in their pockets for the spaceship and take their final dose of Kool Aid.
no lad just get them shot up the arse lad
All we ever hear from the lying Labour apologists is how it’s a ‘global problem’ and nobody saw it coming. Exactly as predicted. No global dimension required.
Check this out from 2004….

fuck me lads he is the next geoff hoon
Don’t get excited freddie! Rest that knee. Hope you’ve got something cold to put on it?
aye lad nowt stoping me , is hoon in the same league as spitin image ?
Hope you’ve got something cold to put on it?
Aye, a tinnie no doubt. *rolls eyes*
aye lad got jaquies fish straight out the freezer
A c*unt of the highest order. Nothing else need be said.
I dissaprove of him always saying the word “naked”. It seems totally unessecary.
“Be quiet then while I explain it to you”, what an arrogant man. Typical of our governing national socialist party.
The voters of Erdington need to be told what an arsehole they elected.
It has always struck me as odd that ,when you contrast the Labour intellectuals with the old Labour Trades Unionists,the so-called Labour intellectuals like Simon(Oxford etc) tend to be the ones who are as thick as pigshit.
The old Labour Trade Unionists got their experience in the University of Life, holding down a real job etc, the current bunch of fuckwits have mostly never worked in the private sector & would be unemployable outside their cosy world of SpAds. McSnot is a case in point – has he ever held a proper job?
and he done a shit rip of of ” call me dave “
I agree… what are you on about?
O/T, but I make no apologies.
Harry Patch was laid to rest today. At his request, his funeral service had a theme of reconciliation. There were no weapons, though servicemen of his old regiment bore his coffin, flanked by servicemen representing former allies and enemies.
In his later life, he said that war was not worth the loss of one life.
May all the politicians of the world hear his words, and think.
RIP Harry Patch, and all those to loose their lives in conflict.
“Better to jaw, jaw, jaw, than to war, war war.” – Churchill.
rip lad
If we’re going to have a battle, better over 22 yards, with a few pints together afterwards.
Good luck to the lads tomorrow, Freddie.
cheers lad they wont stop me
Fred lad, do you think it will be the English weather not the cricketers that defeat the Ozzies? Much like Napolean and Hitler were defeated, not by the Russians themselves, on their marches on Moscow, but by the Russian winter.
mick lad dont need the weather
And how typical of a silly little Beeb reporter determined to conduct an interview during the minute’s silence – the interviewee politely told him to shove it!! He was a good deal less forceful than I would have been I can tell you.
you think the bbc ( and labour ) support our troops lad ?
Of course not, silly me.
it aint cricket lad , they send the troops to fight and then stab them in the back but hey gordon must be used to it ?
No apologies necessary.
I’m not old enough to remember WW1 except through the eyes of my mother who’s father died at Passchendaele where I believe Harry fought.
Men fight and die because of the ego of Ministers and the folly and failure of governments – and its never truer than now with Afghanistan.
RIP Harry.
A great pity they’ve all gone now.
No-one to remind politicians that it’s not a game and it’s not their careers or ‘legacy’ (Blair take note, you sad shit) it’s real lives, real people, real families. We’ll remember you Harry Patch.
My sincere admiration and thanks to the soldier who played The Last Post, it brought tears to my eyes (again).
I know its a truism but someone once said “in Peace sons bury their fathers and in war fathers bury their sons”. Its a pity our Politicians do not appear to have grasped that War is a desperate,bloody business and should only be entered into as a last resort when all else fails.
You have to remember that although I was already still quite popular in 2003 I wanted to be even more popular. I figured that if I got involved in a nice short, sharp war in some largely defenceless place like, oh, say Iraq, I’d become even more popular like Maggie Thatcher was after the Falklands.
And, do you know, it was the right thing to do. If it had worked. And if it had made me more popular.
But we must put this behind us. Lessons have been learned. It is time to move on.
The BIG question is would it have happened if NuLabour had left the Bank of England in charge?
What? Instead of ordering them to print 175bn quid so far this year? A number getting uncannilly close to the total projected deficit of 200bn quid.
It is almost as if, instead of borrowing money in the traditional sense they have literally printed 175bn quid thereby devaluing all the rest of our money. Mugabe does that. He started off ‘small’ too.
50bn quid here, 50bn quid there, pretty soon you’ve printed a lot of money and devalued a whole lot more.
Some of the numbers being bandied around are eye-watering, and difficult for many people to comprehend.
For example, total Government borrowing for this financial year is forecast as £175bn. That’s £175,000,000,000.
Total National debt is said to be £1.4trillion. That’s £1,400,000,000,000.
The Bank of England is just about to create another £50bn. That’s £50,000,000,000.
Out of interest, does anybody know how many Pounds Sterling in total are in circulation?
No, but there are 2 Kinnocks costing £ 10 million if that helps.
If a Pound Sterling is a unit of currency, is a Kinnock a unit of debt?
A Kinnock is a unit of wind – and very expensive wind at that.
Can anyone change a Kinnock for me ?
I think words speak louder than mere numbers – try one hundred and seventy five thousand million pounds….
And some wonder why British talent goes abroad to places like Silicon Valley?
Mr Cionqunt Valley
hey lads , just a thought , what happens if we have a over mighty pm , would it help if there was no major oppo lads ?
This is the swing of right and left that has fucked this country since the second world war. Political visions of meglamaniac power seeking arses that want people to swallow their dream of utopia. Not managing the country for the benefit of the residents.
why cant they just run the country with out sound bites and spin , the queen copes lad ?????
Do you read any other blogs?
i do lad lady dale and labour list , and i get a mail from con home most days , still dont know who to vote for abl lad
Have a look at Old Holborn to see a different view. Not saying he’s right,but certainly an alternative outlook.
lad we both know the system is fucked , we wont have a real parliment unless torys and labour are finished lad
But the lesson of norwich is that its more of the same. And this blog. I first came here because it was anti corrupt politicians. But now,it seems to be a tory lovefest.
pissed off lad, this aint a tory love in site , it hates all of them the same
I’m sorry mate,but thats not how i read it. Most of the views i see here are content to see a tory government at the next election. fair enough thats their opinion,but i really thought that the expenses scandal would change the political landscape. Norwich would suggest i’m in a minority. 24000 voted for Lib Lab Con.
pissed off lad , we need open local elections not controlled by westminster , that or a shotgun up the arse ,( all mps welcome )
Well,we’re going to get neither. Just more of the same.
Thank fuck i can watch the ashes.
pissed of lad same shit different pants lad
Is that some sort of Aussie bowling change?
its chapple like lad
Chappel,Jardine and Brown. Just goes to prove that ungentlemanly behaviour is often a winner. That’s why freddies such a hero. He plays hard,but he plays fair and with a smile. Who can forget his taking time out to put an arm round Brett Lee’s shoulder in a time of victory. A class act!
cheers lad will come in hard when we bowl
Heck! Give Ricky a break mate. He’s feeling a bit vulnerable.
That’s a good idea! Make sure Ricky gets 90mph in the vunerables – first over.
That’s true.
check this out lads , this is crowd control
We’ve got a freaker! It’s male, and the police are leading it off. It’s seen the last of it’s cricket for today.
lad it aint cricket but is funny lad
mick lad how do we get through a day with out a steaker lad ?
I quite enjoyed the “freaker” deterrent method at one ground – forget which – when security just stood around and wated if an unclothed idiot ran on. After about 30 seconds, the idiot realised it was stood starkers in front of 20,000 sneering spectators, and wandered off to female cries of “anybody got a magnifying glass” and a £1000 fine. Seems to have worked wonders – they are rare these days, thankfully.
Climate Change has reduced streakers to near extinction.
what a massive Hunt this man is.
when the election comes we can wash away twats like this and they will never bother us again.
wait for the election (if we get one lad )
Lord Mandalson and the unelected PM Brown don’t encourage many apart from a few arrogant business leaders, bankers and those who come here to game the system after the tone has been manipulated and set in their favour. This taints the whole and drags everything that was patriotically achievable and many people down even further. The smart money would be on regaining ground within the UK, booting out the traitors and investing in the inherent talant which still lay in our norms and makeup. We know what’s right and proper by instinct. It’s our politicians who don’t.
didn’t watch the video just saw the picture and thought wanker get a hair cut.
lads dont feed the troll
Give it a beer instead!
With a strong laxative and then watch it spout shit.
Don’t waste the beer, just give it the laxative. Not sure we’d notice a difference between pre-laxative and post-laxative, though.
As an engineer,i think that the lit match test will satisfy your curiousity.
Only if I can stand well back, with the match tied to end of a long stick.
Reassuring to know that modern engineering still relies on something tied to a stick. Ah,the timeless wonder of science.
We have very hi-tech sticks these days. Carbon fibre and all that. Sometimes, a good old-fashioned broomstick works just as well. Ask Harriet Harman.
and a kickin lad
Over a year ago, on this blog, I lamented the arrogance of the City and a greedy society and said Britain was heading towards third world status. People preferred not to hear that and let house prices rip. Now the pigeons have come home to roost the same people are looking for someone to blame.
Be still, grasshopper.
Personally I blame IT it’s all a load of shit as are its practitioners.

Hello Damian – it will be good when you start that job at the catholic school in September – you’re obviously fixated on trying to spoil Guido’s blog. Too much time on your hands.
What really worries me is that you should be using your time to get fit or you are going to be a heart attack or stroke victim within the next few years.
Get rid of your revenge emotions and Join a Leisure Club. I can recommend it!!

An excellent choice. It would take years to work out which one had been inflicted on which. Charles with his relentless drivel or Hattie with her gelding kit

He has an inflated view of his talent. Surely a suitable consort can be easily obtained from the specialist sections of the press.

Not even. Feed HH to lions or whatever but there are limits.

I bet that gives Guido a real buzz and so it should !!
i am geoff hoon and i am a hoon , thankyou
There’s only one Geoff Hoon. And i mean that most sincerely.
Some of the smart folks in the city and around the country have accepted they’ve made mistakes. To some extent, I think, a lot of people have to follow that lead and accept their own mistakes and reality. When that hurt passes they’ll stop lashing out and start feeling better about themselves.
Be still, grasshopper.
So Gordon’s going to come clean about fucking up everything ?
Can’t see it somehow.
I bet quite a few are spitting feathers that they were conned and ever voted for Labour number one with number two a bi-product who thinks ‘cos he’s PM is number one but most folk see him as a number two.
Many number twos are brown.

…As we were leaving, the housekeeper beckoned me into the Ceauşescu’s private bathroom and sat down on the fluffy yellow lavatory seat. She seemed to have taken a liking to me. Opening a drawer, she produced a box containing a few gold items and selected something from it. It was a fat Mont Blanc pen, a bit vulgar for my taste. I handed it back to her politely, but she waved to me that I should keep it. Adrian saw the label and translated it: ‘The gift of the British Labour Party’. Later, of course, the Labour Party was unable to find any record of having given Ceauşescu a fountain pen when I asked. How suprising. By now it wasn’t fasionable to be a present-giver yo Comrade Nicolae any more.

Gordon Brown has a plan to deliver a way out of this situation. These things can take a while to understand but when people see what it can deliver and feel comfortable with that the general mood should improve. Heck, in a couple of years some of you will probably be laughing at how worried you were at the time.

The ” . . . Tom Watson [pause] my ‘friend’ Tom Watson . . .” interested me on two counts. Firstly, was he trying to impress the interviewer with his links to the Labour ‘elite’? The self correction was clearly meant to score points with someone.
Secondly, aligning himself with TW gives a clear insight into his own potential for defamation and discourteous behaviour towards fellow MPs – are we about to witness the next wave of sleaze-gate assaults over the interweb? He doesn’t strike me as being smart enough to learn from other people’s mistakes (if he even views them as mistakes).

O/T sorry. Twitter has tonight been the victim of an overload cyber attack and has crashed.
I wonder if this is the work of the new Liebour Minister for Digital Britain.

I suspect charlie/damian/tomW/sion/ are some of them.

Ha ha.
Yes, apparently Charles wrote Doom 10 years before id Software did.
He’s a complete fantasist.
I found this lovely sample of TWatson’s proper blogging, this entry on the subject of privatisation threats to Radio 1.
“When Chris Moyles had the courage to talk about his sense of himself in relation to his weight, it gripped Radio One listeners. Nearly 8 million people clicked on the part of the Radio One web site that displayed the before and after shots of Mr Moyles. The before picture was of a pudgy unshaven bloke in jeans. And the photo-shopped after-shot of Chris with four stones of beer belly airbrushed out of history. Likewise, Kelly Clarkson Osbourne looking like an emaciated size zero model sent out a clear message. It was a unique way of engaging with a younger audience.
A quick Google search tells me that 1.1 million people in the UK suffer from some form of eating disorder. Millions more like me worry about their weight.
Being a fat bloke I think to myself, good on you Chris Moyles. And good on the social action unit of Radio One who, with great creativity and a gentle touch help our nation’s angst ridden youngsters to understand the world that they live in. The work they do has little commercial value but is a quintessential element of the BBCs public service broadcasting obligation. “
When I were a lad fat people were rare. Coz we didn’t have fast food: Big Macs, Burger King, Kentucky Fired Chickadee in fact we didn’t have fat franchises.
We had bread and jam, which we sneaked when mam was out shopping. In between games of 40-a-side footie or cricket played with a a binlid wicket or British Bulldog.
If we “worried” like you do, precious thing, our mams would give us a slap round the ear. Then we’d stop worrying. Aye, we did.
Chris Moyles? He can fuck right off the mouthy fat twat! he’s fat because he’s a lazy lardarse beer guzzling oik. Psychology has got fuck all to do with it. He needs to get a proper fucking job, one that exercises some muscles other than his jaw, and then he might shed some blubber.
“Eating disorders”?
You can fuck off. What you mean is that you eat too fucking much. You greedy slobs.
Give me a fucking break and wire your slack jaw.
Didn’t Jasper Carrott nail this one about 20 years ago?
“This hole bigger than this hole.”
The Tories are just attention seeking and trying to control the narrative that’s circulating. Regular folks and thrill seekers get caught up in that, and lumping everyone in as a Tory just adds to their illusion of leadership and popularity. It’s just a marketing scam to get you to talk about and/or buy their product, like all the cruddy shareware Windows optimisers and junk like that.

FOR THE LAST TIME. DRINK UP GENTLEMAN PLEASE:

Ha ha Guido sold the low and bought the high in the DOW. LOL!!!! That’ll learn you for trasing drunk
oops should say TRADING not trasing
Anything positive about Labour is dissed into the ground, and anyone who says anything supported gets the same treatment. But, any excuse to talk up or high-five anything positive about their Tories’ chosen product is seized on like an alcy returning to the whiskey. Show some doubt and they never attack you but smooch in the hope you’ll join their team.
The Tories haven’t changed. A vote for them is a vote for death and greed.
Be still, grasshopper.
Vote death and greed – it’s less fatal and avaricious than the current lot.
This is the fourth time he has repeated this post but he has added the penultimate sentence.
It looks like he is trying to copy thick as thieves style of slogan writing.
What a wanker Charles is! Thick as thieves is out of his fucking league.
Thick as thieves is a genius innit.
Charles is not a real person – it is a Labour machine blogger, ignore it!
I rip the wires out of machines tricky.
you wouldn’t understand: it’s a propaganda thing.
“taking charge of Digital Britain” be f***ed! It’s never gonna happen! No one is going to listen to Simon because he has stupid name and he is the verbal equivalent of f***ing bad breath! When God made Sion Simon he started with the big toe and then kind of lost interest…
I’ve just endured that YouTube post and in spite of being a live-and-let-live kind of guy I would rather drink a gallon of my own urine than listen to that f***er again. Truly cringe-inducing.
Some serious questions need to be asked of the f***wits that keep voting him in. It would appear that large sections of Birmingham Erdington are in need of a f***ing kneecapping to wake them out of their stupor.
If they are serious about trying to do something about digital Britain, they would send in the big guns, not some embarrasing has-been.
OK
so if Thatcher’s ancestors used to thatch,
Cooper’s used to make barrels,
and Smith’s used to run forge,
what did Stephen Ladyman’s do ?
What did “Browns” do?
Is Mandelson the son of a “Mandel”, and if so, what is a “Mandel”?
The mind boggles at “Darling” – unless it is a small darl.
BRing forth clOWNs
Yer Mandleson is obviously a front wheeler, annit
Mandel comes from an old anglo norman word Man -deli meaning a male prostitute
Darling comes from old norse where “dar” is a penis and -ling is the diminutive from
mince around like crafty butchers and vote Labour
That begged to be googled.
Ladyman: either lady’s servant or ladies’ man (a la Casanova). Harriet will never stand for such sexist language.
What about Darling?
catamite ?
What a arrogant little shit Sion (posh Sean) clearly is.
Someone needs to rearrange his facial features with a baseball bat.
What, again?
Don’t tell Gordon but I have had a great idea….
Sion Simon and Mandy could run Labour’s General Election campaign!
Just when things are calming down and the press are being positive Cameron opens his mouth and runs people down. Put next to Osborne’s inexperience this looks a little deliberate and suggests to me that the Tories would rather talk Britain into a recession and fuel hysteria than focus on fixing things. But, what else can people expect from a nasty and directionless party like the Tories? No wonder sensible leaders and the media are deserting them.
Be still, grasshopper.
Do fuck off you boring little shit.
There is no point telling the turd to fuck off – he (it) isn’t real – it is a carpet blogger from Labour that just spawns rubbish to fuck people off. Ignore it!
Yawn.
He has repeated this post twice. So he has posted this comment three times.
Which famous Labour politician cried when Leonid Brezhnev died?
A national poll in America says that the War in Afghanistan has hit an all time low .
gordon is spinning big time and surprisingly robtgates the american defense secretary has now removed his request for 2000 extra British troops to Afghanistan to provide support to our overstretched troops because of pressure from bob aintbustingagut .
bob ‘a’ does not care about our soldiers. eVIL eVIL man!!!
Good night. God Bless.
God bless you nell.
sweet dreams. you deserve them.
you are a fucking inspiration nell.
sorry about the language.
I hate this Colin hUNT so f**king much… look at the state of it… who are the mongs that elected him? Seriously!! If he came to my front door asking for my vote; I’d politely decline, close the door quickly and phone the NHS Psychiatric Hotline to inform them that one of their soft fruits had jumped the fence. Asides from this Colin hUNT being carpet bombed by the US Air Force, his constituents should be too… we’d probably save a few quid in social payments.
Hopefully he’ll die soon.
Not soon enough.
Sion Simons is MP for Birmingham Erdington.
And I have just found a really fun website, chavtowns, which describes the place thus:
Erdington, Birmingham
The delightful suburb of ERDINGTON [is] the u-bend in the toilet of North Birmingham. Allow me to take you on a journey through this green and putrid land.
Park your stolen car anyway near Six-Ways-to-get-mugged Island. Try and park half on the kerb, to ensure maximum annoyance to anyone with a wheelchair or pushchair. Even better, display your blue disabled badge and stroll on with no problem whatsoever.
When you reach the shopping centre, do not under any circumstances use the crossing. Simply vault over the railings three feet away, which affords you a head start in the queue at the 99p chip shop. Take care to spit vigorously upon entering and leaving the chip shop, and ensure that your companions also have food for the journey. Check on their welfare by saying “Safe” every few words.
By the time the chips have gone (shared with Wayne, Dwayne, Kane and Shane), you will be in site of the DSS. Do not be alarmed – they are there to help perpetuate your lifestyle. Pop in and let them know that you have no intention of working in the next fortnight, and they will do the rest. Don’t forget to thank the staff by spitting at them – they are there for your benefit, after all.
Safely signed on, call in at the Feller pub. This opens at 10am, when you should still be in bed. Congratulate yourself on your active lifestyle with a pint and a game of pool.
Now it’s time for Bulk, a discount heaven. Fag still in mouth, walk round and remark on the increasing cost of stuff in shops. Why bother with household gear when that 99p can get you a double cheeseburger? Thieving bastards, these shops.
Quick look in Woolies, more chips at Michaela’s Plaice, then drinks and scuffles in the Roebuck – the creme de la creme of dolehead pubs. Finally, go thieving in the Co-op, and scowl at anybody who looks at you like you’re a piece of benefit-dependent feckless scumag layabout.
You know it makes sense.
Check out Birmingham Erdington on chavtowns.co.uk. All will be answered. (I tried posting the text but it got moderated on.)
I’m not at all surprised that this retard presides over an electorate made up of even bigger retards aimlessly walking around in Burberry and baseball caps, pushing triple- seat prams in the direction of the local Netto supermarket and “Job” Centre Plus.
Lay off Sion everyone he is my special friend.
It was only with Sions support that I was able to develop dual Java protocols
for the development of that famous game among the Gay Community.It was me that created the success that is Arse Invaders.
Be still Grasshopper.
Is it true you will soon release the follow up ” Fisting Fury ?”
The follow up was actually Arse Bandits return of the prolapse.
Be still Grasshopper.
Then you are only imitating your competitors Fidelity Graphics who first set out the blockbuster ” Tupping transvestitites ” with the famous character Feel Woolarse
Dont forget Chutney Shovers did the voiceover for Bend Bradshaw-master of the Chocolate Starfish 2 thanks to my input.
Fame at last.
Be still Sion.
That was simply a cut and paste of Chopper Cheese 3 starring Gordo
I agree with the Prime Minister that mere tax cuts for creating new jobs isn’t enough. The real key remains business vision and employment liquidity.
People need to let go of being so rigid and picky, and entertain new ideas and lower thresholds to giving people a chance, take a hard, hard look at quality of products and services, and invest in employee and customer loyalty. Skill is useful but a better attitude is fundamental to embracing necessary change.
Be still, grasshopper.
This is the third time he has repeated this post.
Who asked for your opinion anyway retard boy.
You seem to think that people are interested in your mad rantings.
WE’RE ALLRITE! WE’RE ALLRITE!
We all know that Sion Simon is the most egregious sort of berk, twat and arsehole, so what’s new? I could never understand why The Telegraph of all papers, gave him a platform for his ridiculous twaddle before he became an MP. He is an absurd idiot !
He swallows
You got cocaine eyes
And probably nasty shoes, if we could see them…
Forget not that Sion comes from prime sheep shagger stock.
He couldnt speak English until he was 23 and he still hasnt mastered it .
No self-respecting sheep would have him.
The Tories still lack the sort of business vision I’m looking for, and their members and wider constituents haven’t accepted that they share a responsibility and may need to give back to the broader business community and society. By that, I mean valuing the contribution of those lower down the chain in a meaningful way.
So, again, I’m left calling for a better R&D focus and the wealthy middle-class who did well out of the incomes redistribution of the Thatcher years to give back some of what they took. That means better opportunity and fair pay, job enrichment and a little squealing as the wealthy find everyone else getting a free roll of the dice.
Be still, grasshopper.
Like bankers.
You are a C.u.N.t
My Graphics Fidelity program talking bollocks seems to be working perfectly today.
Be still little boy.
Stop grooming
Stop using my name I spent seconds thinking it up in order to bypass the bullshit filter.
At last a living definition of the words “complete and utter C U N T”.
Charles is a FOOL
Labour inherited such a good set of books that the miserable snotgobbler bollocked a treasury official for daring to say so….
What an Arsehole! Take him Down M’lord
Somebody pull the plug out of this machine please.
‘Labour economic recovery’…..but the recession ‘started in America’ therefore it will surely end there also.
‘Labour blogs that have something genuine and meaningful to offer’..Like Tom Twatson, cos he’s a ‘proppa blogga’
YEAH !! RITE !!
The strange propinquity of Labour Councils and state-run brothels, AKA children’s homes…
I can keep this going ad infinitum, Charles.
What a total fucking twat.
New Labour computer memory management: put it all on CD and send it through the post.
Labour. Africa. Peanuts. Failure.
Scion?
Who’s your daddy!
He is a Labour Fool and best ignored – he is a mere pawn sent here to annoy and distract – much like a wasp at a picnic – whilst we waste time and effort hurling abuse in his direction or even trying to get the fool to understand reason or logic he is winning his little game which is, quite simply, to stop us training our fire on the Labour party and the antics of its members.
The ‘Fool’ is not stupid and should be ignored
whats up with posting system ??
they are on strike
Not me & Jess
best laugh ive had all night , bet you wish you had 1997 treasury now
Sion Simon is a Claire Short look-a-likey
Looks like the by-product of a shagging session between John Prescott and Claire Short.
aye lad that not a thought i want in my head
……AND a failed abortion attempt
Ladies and Gentlemen being an elderly old codger and not very good with the computer this my first attempt at a post:
Re the gentleman concerned. He’s obviously emotionally sterile. In urgent need of a vasectomy. Has serious mental health problems, and should be quietly removed to the the nearest psychiatric facility – and shot.
Welcome, sir! May this be your first of many posts.
It is utterly beyond me that he might regard his appearance and demeanour as in any way impressive or attractive to the electorate. Let us hope that he is not representative of the majority of those who would aspire to govern.
Alas Eng I think he is representative of many who are already in the labour government. Worrying.
Nothing much happening this morning according to the Beeb apart from BoE printing another £50Billion – apparently the’ve already used up that £125Billion that they printed – not surprising given gordon’s propensity for hard spending.
Morning Folks
reports of me missing the test match are not to be belived lads
Good on yer Freddie. I’m looking forward to 11 o’clock, but probably not as much as you are.
Please be fit freddie, win this one and we have the Ashes!
Yow cor unnerstand a wehd the fooker says.
Jez: Welcome – may I introduce myself – I’m Grandma B and no longer a young thing, although, last night I surprised myself when I managed to outrun the 18 cows that were chasing me and my dog.
You’ll soon get into the swing of things and recently we have had an influx of more varied and amusing postings. This is mainly because certain individuals who were rather controversial and repetitive have been banned.
Why thank you “Engineer” and “Grandma B” – for the welcome. How kind. I feel at home already.
it’s because your thick as thieves lol
10.21pm thief,
now listen here you retard; think up your own name.
don’t steal other people’s names.
stealing is wrong you thief.
innit.
What a nasty piece of work. Who could vote for someone like that.
I also thought MPs were there to represent theirconstituents not the Labour government.
That’s the entire point of shooting, you knob! Unless you’re some kind of pervo masochi…
I’ll get my coat.
Why does even the maladroit labour spin machine allow him to speak on their behalf? Even Dolly would have recognised what an insufferable prat Simon is.
“Be quiet then while I speak!” Got a bit of a temper hasn’t it?
He’s also got a face I’d like to hit.
Damian McBride was a political troll. He’s very clever and persuasive but he sniffed his own gasses too much and imploded. People like this can look very strong and get a lot of attention but they’re a little too bright and brittle. As people slowly caught up and developed their own view the wax holding his political wings on melted and he crashed to the earth. And you know what? The same thing’s gonna happen to Sion Simon.
You heard it here first, several months ago, since when I’ve repeated it ad nauseam.
Be breakfast, grasshopper.
It’s no small wonder that NuLab will be consigned to the political midden soon if this cretin is the best they can do…
Derek?
so this is labours ” rising star” fuck me lads , he is a hoon of the highest class and he looks like a tramp
Don’t let those fucking vermin put you off the trail. The media are bigging up(geddit?) my ‘compassionate’ release, by the war criminal, father of a drug dealer, scum Jack Straw. Meanwhile the real scum in the City of London are printing your country’s currency and giving it to bankers to buy the government’s debt. It’s what we lags call ‘monetization’. What this means, in technical parlance, is your money’s fucked, and your country.
The bastard, real criminal scum are destroying any savings you might have, your future and current pensions and eventually your house’s worth, compared to real goods. Before next year prices of food, petrol, electricity, gas, basically anything you need will rocket upwards, far greater than that little kerfuffle in 2008. You’ve been shagged and the bastards have got off scot free. They know you’re braindead pussies fucked by lobotomising TV and shitkicking feminists like Hardbint and they have no conscience to hold them back. Glad I’m nearly dead. Better to have fought on your feet than die like pansies on your knees like the majority in modern day ‘Great Britain’.
http://market-ticker.org/archives/1304-BLATANT-Monetization-Uncovered.html
US and UK both at it; two cheeks of the same shit-all-over-you banker’s arse.
Yes. Printing 175bn quid in lieu of actually attempting to pay our debts should be the big story of the century.
But the BBC is right on-side presenting it as no big deal. Gosh. You mean we could have just printed all that money all along? Why did nobody ever think of it before. Apart from Mugabe. And the Argentinians. And the Weimar government.
And the long roll-call of countries who successfully printed 15% of GDP in a single year is listed below in its enirety….
When I was a tiny tot in the nursery at Waad Towers we called this “playing shops”. Toy money paid for toy things. When my little friends were away Left Hand could pay Right Hand.
Nobody should romanticise the real Ronnie Biggs however. He fought that railway guard on his feet all right – stitched him up good and proper.
Jack Mills did indeed die – but 7 years after the robbery, and of cancer. It was GBH, not murder, and the man who struck the driver was generally thought to be Buster Edwards, not Ronnie Biggs.
These days you get as little as 7 years for manslaughter, making it crystal clear that Biggs’ sentence was everything to do with political pressure rather than the crime he committed. I don’t like or support criminal activity, but I dislike the murderous incompetence and venality of our political masters even more.
The driver Mills did indeed die – but 7 years after the robbery, and of cancer. It was G B H, not m urder, and the man who struck the driver was generally thought to be Bu ster Ed wards, not Ronnie Biggs.
These days you get as little as 7 years for manslaugh ter, making it crystal clear that Biggs’ sentence was everything to do with political pressure rather than the crime he committed. I don’t like or support criminal activity, but I dislike the murderous incompetence and venality of our political masters even more.
Modded again. Why oh why?
The driver died 7 years later, of cancer – and Biggs wasn’t the one who hit him. Considering that manslaughter will get you as little as 7 years today, Biggs’ sentence clearly reflects political pressure rather than justice.
I don’t like the man or what he did but the murderous incompetence and venality of our politicians such as Straw (Blair, Brown, Sion, T. Cobbley et al) is far worse.
Did they make a fuck of a sight more money than you Charles? Is Napoleon on the same ward as you? Could you give him a go on the computer too.
I’ve just texted him a picture of my twat.
Text Me One
Have you got any “Chocolate Ring” pics?
I’d have thought you’d have had plenty of company on your ward. It’s not every person who has two Napoleons and a Jesus Christ among his list of friends.
Plus the endless company provided by the many voices in your head.
Guys,
‘Charles_E_Harδwiδge’ is just a front for a bunch of LabourList trolls. Just ignore the comments and they’ll soon get bored and disappear.
I do like the modding effort of this morning. Off you fuck Hardwit.
Yes, I noticed that too.
‘working as a labour MP to support the Government and get them re-elected’ to paraphrase the lank haired twit.
No mention of representing his constituents, but then again what do we expect from our MPs these days anyway?
Has Sion Simons been removed from leading Digital Britain?
6 August 2009 14:26 BST
Timms to lead ‘Digital Britain’
Treasury minister Stephen Timms is to take charge of delivering the plan for the future of the UK digital industry.
Mr Timms, who remains as financial secretary to the Treasury, will report in the new role to Lord Mandelson and Culture Secretary Ben Bradshaw.
[....]
Downing Street said creative industries minister Sion Simon would lead on aspects of the report in the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, with the work overseen by Culture Secretary Ben Bradshaw and Business Secretary Lord Mandelson.
EVERYONE reports into to me now.
Gordon is just a figurehead …or should that be figure dickhead…
creative industries minister Sion Simon would lead on aspects of the report in the Department for Culture, Media and Sport
What sort of a shit non-job is that?
‘Creative industries minister’? Minister for Playstations?
What a fucking no-mark.
Another public sector non-job that no-one would notice if it were abolished tomorrow…
Aye. But Sion will have extra money to reflect his ‘extra responsibility’. It’s why his number one and two priorities are to support the Labour government and campaign for its re-election. .
Is it because he’s proud of their record (destroyed the UK economy in less than a decade). Is it fuck. he doesn’t even give it a thought. It’s all about his next pay cheque.
He’ll have got used to spending that extra money. He’ll do as he’s told to keep it
He looks like Perry from ‘Kevin and Perry’ fame. Sounds like him too.
aye lad perry was funny though
And what kind of a c*unts name is ‘Sion’? I do hope he was beaten as regularly at school as such a C*nts moniker deserves. Like that other hoary-handed son of Labour toil Fabian Fucking Hamilton.
Fucking Fabian. Doomed to a life of c*ntistry by fucking middle-class angst-ridden parents.
Fabian!!!
That’s child abuse.
I’m pondering the timing of that BBC story (above @522). Is there any connection between Gu1do resurrecting that unpleasant interview and the shuffling of responsibilities?
and someone tell the ecb to let phill ” the trumpet” cooper in !
Even Ricky Ponting said that the atmostphere was great at Edgebaston.
There may have been joking boos when he came out to bat, but every man in the ground stood up and applauded when he passed the Aussie runs record.
The stupid cυnts at the ECB are the ones kicking up a storm, have they never heard what the England team get from the crowds at Sydney or Melbourne and their 90,000 Aussies?
Or Eden Gardens. 200,000 Indians who want revenge for the Raj.
it would be like going to test match in the west indies without the steel bands lad , the ecb are hoons , and i have no idea why the media are joining in , wake up we are 1-0 up we need all the help we can get
Cricket is the only sport that the people in charge want to make duller.
Er … I fail to see how any mortal man can make it duller than it already is.
At least it’s not as fucking dangerous as rugby, though, and there’s a good chance of a quiet on-your-feet doze if you’re fielding near the boundary.
He is a modern-day, vulgarised version of Alan B’Stard, a pastiche of everything that is loathsome in British society.
Mr B’Stard would find your comparison insulting and offsensive…
Piers beats an uncanny resemblance to Ed Balls.
I see this morning that madhattie is trying to get her husband jack standing as an MP in a safe Labour seat – if such a thing still exists.
Apparently she thinks this is her due for having ‘run the country so well’ for the last two weeks.
And who is jack? Oh now I remember he was Treasurer of the Labour Party at the time the £3.5 ‘loans’ were made to Labour by people tryng to buy peerages but claims he knew nothing about them. Even some of his own called him ‘stupid and lazy’. Well on reflection then he’s well qualified to be a Labour MP.
is that harmans new equality law hire ones husband , god they make me sick lass
If I could just finish… If I could just finish… I wish you wouldn’t cut across me like that…. The important thing is…. What you need to understand is….
Emminently qualified…. Great servant…. Labour Party….. If I could just finish….
Fuck off Harman. And take your useless fucking husband with you. Enjoy the obscurity of opposition.
I look forward to reports of your arrest in years to come for haranguing the Polish staff at a small town hotel while you refresh yourself with a couple of bottles of white wine for lunch.
Really. Do fuck off.
“532 jgm2 says: Fuck off Harman. And take your useless fucking husband with you.”
No way, her husband (and all taxpayers) are paying my salary…
NewLiebour-style equality in action.
I’d say there’s not a whole lot of safe seats left for them anywhere though. Expect a bigger change in votes than in 1997 at the next election
Well of course I mean £3.5million!
Mornin Nell,you just finished cleaning The Olde Curiosity Shop?
How is Grandad,still gambling,he will never learn.
morning jacqui – hate cleaning – but ‘grandad’ tells me shares doing well this week – so we can afford a bottle of wine for saturday!
Wish Dickens had written novels with happy endings -
modded – let’s try again
morning vote vote – cleaning ugh! – but ‘grandad’ tells me investments doing well this week – so we can afford a bottle of wine for saturday.
Wish dickens had written cheerier novels.
modded again – I reckon the auto mod doesn’t like the word D+ckens
This mod. filter is a Dickens of a thing to fathom….
could be Charl*s?
Don’t mention Charles this early in the day. You will start him off.
For whom the bell Trolls.
Don’t worry.
The LabourList trollers (aka ‘Charles_E_Harδwiδge’) only get out of bed mid afternoon.
You’ve forgotten that to-day is “No Show Friday!” – all the Labour Trolls like “Dear Charles” will be skiving off to celebrate the coming of the Socialist Utopia whilst the rest of us work our b*ll*cks off to pay for his benefits cheque!!!
Well I don’t know then – but I tried twice – there was absolutely nothing in it that the automod should have got. How that automod works is the great mystery of this site.
It doesn’t, for some the ‘C’ word just breezes through, either in their ID or in the body of the comments, for me I always get stuck with the hoon word, just not fair.
Ermmm…. exactly!
The problem is, delivery and capacity are not running together.
One only has to read the economists reports today. The house boom is just a blip and will drop again come the winter.
Government are muttering about selling off Northern Rock, splitting it into a good and bad bank. The bad bank will contain all the debt and the good bank, the savings and solid loans.
They planned to sell the good part off by the end of this year but they need EU approval, ansd theer’s an election around the corner. The sale would also mean that taxpayers would not have an earthly chance of recouping much of the losses.
Faking it? This government are masters at it. They still haven’t learnt that that pumping another 50bn into the economy is futile. The only way this can go is towards inflation.
How about a corperate bootsale… sell the crap to mugs ( not the cup types)
Sorry the government bought the crap!!
Might work…. don’t bet on it!!
“sell the crap to mugs”, Election manifestos coming out soon.
That’s moderating for you
Nothing that a Graphics Fidelity engineer cannot defeat!!!
Be still, grasshopper
Cucking Funt
Gordon Brown’s has christened his new Blogosphere rapid response unit – digital watch
I had one of those once in the late 70′s- complete with red LED numbers !!
You can’t trust anyone who begins his answer to the first question with “Errrrrrm”
This is the most entertaining phase of Labour’s demise – an ever-decreasing pool of talent from which to draw its footsoldiers – and the exposition of the Party’s diseased internal organs
But with another £50bn of funny money being printed during the holidays, with Sir Alan Sugar and Esther Rantzen on board, can things only get better?
“Talent” ? ? !!
Talent ? ? !!
Was there ever ANY “Talent” ?
I cannot imagine what the problems with democracy are if Esther Rantzen is the answer.
What next, a dog that says sausages as Home Sec?
No thanks – we don’t need any more dogs being home sec. Jacqui Five Bellies was more than enough for this millenium ta.
Well the rest of the country wants me. I’m a star celebrity.
“What next, a dog that says sausages as Home Sec?”
I thought she’d resigned?
NO! we don’t want Blunkett back!
Dave’s Dog says: I AM THE MASTER, it’s sausages for tea tonight again.
But could SHE say sausagages?, woof! susages woof! susidge.
I remember many on the left of politics bemoaning the “nepotism of the establishment” when they were in opposition. Now the boot is on the other foot, the left are even more blatant than the old guard.
Funny thing nepotism – which of us would not help out a family member or friend if we could? On the other hand, part of political honour is knowing when one’s obligations to public service over-ride one’s desire to help one’s own. Hattie has missed the ‘public service’ target by a mile, here.
Par for the course with this entire government. Their only ‘public service’ target is to borrow enough money to buy enough votes to remain in power.
And that’s it.
Are we all aware that Harmon has family connections with David Cameron,apparently through marriage of her Aunt to his Great Uncle?
Perhaps this could explain part of her hatred of Men..knowing that her something removed nephew (??) will be Prime Minister when she is consigned to the scrap yard?
We don’t want her.
Can’t you recycle her?
Look on her bum and see if there’s a number inside a triangle.
Some may even say he was corrupt !
You may say that. I couldn’t possibly comment.
A bit like McBust’s denials about the millions that somehow appeared in NuLiebour’s bank account when they were flogging peerages. For the fanatical detail man he is (amongst other things, don’t start me off) he never wondered where the cash was coming from or why?
Tosser or liar??
Yes.
Both.
Sion?
Mean’s cnut in gaelic.
garlic
It’s funny seeing all the Labour boys roll up with their predictable lists of lies and negativity. Flanked by bankrupt banks and a rise in bullying by government-stasi micro-management in the workplace, their ever weakening putsch continues.
I’m looking forward to the inevitable Tory economic recovery sooner rather than later. It’s the Tory bloggers that have something genuine and meaningful to offer. It’s just so much better than what Labour have on show, and “Gordon” and his pal “Mandy” know it.
Be still, grasshopper.
sorry lads ecb over ruled rest up for the oval
Sorry to hear that, Fred, we’ll miss you.
Stick around and keep the lads motivated.
stay out of bar freddie , think what happend to stanford, sorry to hear it anyway
Oh dear freddie, well keep fit and stay out of the Cricketers’ Arms for the next few days, eh?
A thought – have the selectors told Freddie to spin a line in case the Aussie are monitoring Order-Order.com?
Let’s wait for the official teamsheet announcement.
BBC reporting same. Ie Freddie out of 4th test.
Damn.
Stay around the dressing-room, Fred. You’ll be worth an extra fielder and a 12th batsman if you keep the lads going.
Matt Prior is out too – injured his leg playing a warm-up football match
A bit of a false alarm about Prior (a bit like the England team’s hotel fire alarm at 5am today!) – looks like he’s fit enough to play after all..
Interesting thought who is the biggest robber “ronny biggs” or “gordon brown” , ronnie was part of train robbery , gordon is part of pensions robbery .
Still hard to say man with gun or man with pen takes most from a bank ??
David milliband and devoute Ugly betty fanatic (love those hispanic judges ), today says its the end of party politics and we should become envious of what they have in the USA , see hes another sell out merchant with comfy job making grandiose staements about other peoples lives , give us a referendum on lisbon david , see how USA style we really are .
Dont forget david you have changed the way the house of lords operarates without it being in any manifesto , are you sure you understand about Uk democracy and mandates ??
CW has long been critic of lying treasury and mysterious debts in state owned banks that you cant find out about , but last of stae owned banks and the biggest RBS reported a £15m profit , still made £7.5bn loss in retail banking but made up rest in investment banking .
CW knows a lot is Stephen Hester , and like many outside the city wonderd if it was another find a corpse operation for Nu labour . however this morning CW thought Mr Hester was telling truth (change from anyone who useually works for treasury)< also thought his analysis was spot on , still think he paid to much , but delaying bounuses was excellent idea , as was kicking out fraudsters . Impressed , however the rock and lloyds failed to fund anyone to blub sorry as they haemorraghe yet more cash .
just keep track of figures , re voices on nuclear , goverment minister who approves it should live with his family above or near toxic waste dump , which three sites is it ??
Ronnie and co only stole £2.6 million – Broon “the Hoon” has overseen the robbery of billions from pensions and hundreds of billions more in other “Stealth” taxes over the past 12 years.
No question where they both belong, the same place from where Mr Biggs just got let out by more supine government pandering to the tabloid press.
Have I got this right? This Sion Simon guys is so out of touch with not just the electorate but even his own party that he declares an election would be called that never was, he declared politics to be in a period of unassailable Labour dominance just about at the time when it became obvious to all that Labours own “boom and bust” was entering the bust phase, and he assumed only the Tories would have a problem with his “spoof” video, when in actual fact his own party was more annoyed with it while the Tories in the main regarded it as irrelevant.
To cap it all, this guy doesn’t understand that to parody someone effectively, you need to ensure that people recognise your subject as being the butt of the joke, whereas all he’s done is make himself look an idiot.
The one thing I can say in his favour is that his appearance is not deceptive.
Yet this is someone that Gordon Brown considers worthy of a post as the Culture Mininster within his government???!!! And now gives him some additional responsibilities in relation to the “Digital Britain” vision???!!!
Of course we all know it anyway, but nevertheless the frequent reminders of just how desperate and bankupt in so many ways this Government is, remains shocking
Last time we had a government anything like this fucked up we had Spitting Image lampooning arseholes like this every week. Imagine what Labour’s figures would look like if these arseholes were exposed to the same treatment.
Doomed doesn’t begin to describe it.
TV only does Tory satire.
Rory Bremner does a fairly even handed job.
It explains why Britain has one of the poorest Broadband infrastructures in the developed World.
For twelve years they have banged on about Digital Britain leading the World…and done asbolutely nothing about it.
So what do we get?…a 10th rate gutter blogger and MP who can’t articulate properly !
Gives you confidence doesn’t it..
Eh what was that ,just havin a kip
I presume that if you ‘havin a kip’ you are unconscious.
Of course,if you are awake, you were ‘havin a kip’….so I assume that’s what you meant to say.
What was I saying about articulation?
go back to sleep you boring arse.
So polite.
“…..whereas all he’s done is make himself look an idiot.”
No effort involved, either.
the more arseholes like that one the better – easy pickings for DC. That bloke is the quintessential nu-lab twat that has totally fucked this country. Nice that he says DC is in it for himself, what a joke, what a tosser.
These people just don’t get it do they – its pissed me off watching that, who the fuck voted him in.

I suggest all of you write to the BBC Trust asking for those involved to be sacked and an enquiry launched.
It is clear allegation of corruption, at our expense to line the pockets of their chums.
pay you licence tax pleb and fuck off.
No surprises there, the Left are always corrupted in the end.
In the end???
Marxism is a total moral inversion FROM THE START.
So bercow thinks because he shops at ikea, it’s ok to spend £20k of our money to spruce up the free speaker dwellings that gorbals mik had already spent hundreds of thousands on already. Put in place by the liebour party, the same party that denied low paid workers the 10p tax band.
And despite all the furore about mps expenses over the recent months they still shit in your face, because for them nothing matters other than status, wealth and above all loads of money paid for by us.
Why is he not subject to being elected as an mp like all other mps? why doesnt the local conservative association deselect him? why dont they hold an open primary to select their mp? why isnt cameron saying any thing about this £20k? £20k is even above the average annual wage in this country. Why dont they have to work to a budget like every other household in this country has to?
I dont suppose any one will do anything about this and so it just shows you that nothing whatsoever has changed. They are there for themselves and themselves alone. They remain c u n t s every single one of them.
Ikea??!!!!

He looks like a fooking axe murderer, as for his article it just reinforces my belief that idiots shouldn’t be allowed to use the English language.
What a total prat he is, and a very rude one at that. His interview just left me wanting to punch him in the face………..several times and very very hard.
This Deflation meme is really working chaps with the little people, thanks to the trusty BBC. Now we can print fifty more billions for ourselves to ease the ‘credit crunch’, snigger; ramp up share prices and pull it down in a September ‘Surprise’, blamed on the sand people.
But what the fuck do we do with real inflation? Factory prices have risen 2% since the start of the year, raw materials similarly and consumer prices, fuck knows, whatever Tesco’s can get away with gouging. Ah fuck it, no one cares about this shit, just tell ‘em a couple of Chinks got pardoned and some old lag got released; that’ll do it.

Offtopic as always, but the Maily Dail and others are reporting that hackers took 12 minutes to crack the newly announced ID cards
http://www.computerweekly.com/Articles/2009/08/06/237215/uk-national-id-card-cloned-in-12-minutes.htm
If there’s no other reason to get the Tories in, it’s their commitment to scrapping this massive invasion of privacy which serves no obvious purpose but will cost billions of tax pounds…
I’ve bought a number of these cards already from my friend Sergei Aleksandrovich. Everybody should have at least three.
I’m collecting them to play Identity Top Trumps with my children.

UPDATE…@ approx 4.00pm..
It’s official..The ID card cannot be hacked according to The Home Office.
“This story is rubbish” said a HO official,”There’s no evidence to suuport this story”.
Well..that’s alright then…The Government that can’t keep data secure said so.

As if Mr. Simon feels that the yoof of today isn’t smart enough to make up their own minds, but with a little help from New Labour they sail happily off to slog through trustworthy Mr. Watson’s blog, they’ll need some help from a lot of grog to see through the fog.

“praying for rain” steve, for fucks sake you stupid bastard, you are a tramp. why the fuck are you praying for rain you dopey c’unt? your cardboard box house will be turned into a brown mush. you will be extra-homeless you fucking crackhead.
see what happens because you are a crackhead steve?
oh and could all the retards who are encouraging and permitting steve to act out the fantasy that he is an it manager stop doing it, you are not helping him.
steve is just a hobo crackhead alcholic homeless person.
this morning, steve stole a radio after a punch up with a fellow tramp.
on his way to his local crack house to exchange the radio for crackcocaine he listened to the results of the cricket. after exchanging his stolen loot for crack he then went into an internet cafe and stank the place out with his tramp stench of piss and hastily rattled off a couple of short posts before being ejected by the staff who could not stand steve’s nasty tramp smell any more.
note to steve expat: please deal with your issues steve. please stop taking the crack and the cocaine motherfucker. your mum is very worried. she asked if you are insured?
please steve. we are all worried you won’t pull through this thing.
I like you steve, but I know what a weak, spineless person you are.
I don’t think you are going to make it steve.
you are one of life’s losers tramp.
shit happens!

One has to laugh that Mr. Thieves decided to take several minutes out of his day in an attempt to insult me with his words.

Sion Simon? A short-arse, chippy, irritating little labour Hunt. I would like to smite him in the face. With a haddock. Filled with razorblades.
His New Statesman piece is hilarious. Reads like he was under the influence of a white powder when writing it, such hyperbolic, pretentious drivel it is.
Like many others I despise Bliar, but you have to give him credit for his political skills in getting things like Simon elected.
Not so much Blair’s political skills as the local voters’ stupidity.
50 Billion Pounds – “Labour isn’t Working (again)”
“Au- Contraire – Mon Brave!” The latest Labour SpinMeister opinion is that keeping Gordon “incommunicado” during his holiday will allow him a boost in the polls as people will “have missed him” and after having Harman in charge for a week with her slightly “semi-detached” ideas plus the “upturn”(?) in the economy they(we) will welcome him back(??)
If Liebour had and election today or tomorrow the chances are Liebour would win,the suns out it’s a lovely day and the beaches are nice with a bit of a cool wind and all is well,it keeps people happy and away from the the lieing BBC news but not those F**king mobile traffic cameras in those windup cars.
I’m sure we do miss dear Gordon, in the normal way that most people miss a sack of shit when it’s not around (by the glorious fresh air). However, welcome him back? I don’t think so!
I think the drink and drugs are taking over your pathetic life.
Hope you slip down the very smelly dirty mandelson fartpipe, which youve clung onto for so long.
I also agree that this Government is utter finished and hope that not only does it disapear into vast vaccum of space and time.
And oh yes Since when did you stop posting on that BBC Robinsons blog Charles?
Sick of being ignored?
Yet another great success for the government.

It’s getting worse. Labour MP critical of constituents who are hiring a private police force, Miliband apes Cameron, No. 10 panics and suppresses MOD waste report, and Brown holidays through the crisis by hiding in the policies of the past. He’ll wear a Gannex raincoat and start smoking a pipe, next

Sorry, tried to watch it but had to stop half way through. That guy just really turns my stomach.
Bearing in mind the admonishments for trolling above, I’m adding the info below in the belief that this blog is viewed by people with at least some interest in how our taxes are asted.
On a rather tenuously connected note: Being ‘Dole Scum’ at present I get emails for jobs and whilst reading this one just appeared in my inbox with this link – http://myjo.bs/qDOUt
For those who can’t be bothered to read it, it details a government job for “Information Security Managers” paying “up to £60,000 maybe payable to an exceptional candidate”
So that’ll be for someone who doesn’t leave it all on the train on their way home, will it?
A document shredder for Miliband?
I’d need to hand deliver sixty million free newspapers to pay his salary before tax. Or sell a lot of mars bars
They can’t spell “may be”.
Sion Simon? What a complete and utter fucking AMSTRAD
Just got round to watching the Sky video of Sion Simon. I literally had my mouth open (no comments required) as I watched. What a rude young man. His constituents will be concerned to know that he doesn’t appear to want to represent them – his role as an MP being to support the Labour Party and government. I suppose he should be congratulated on his frankness.
As an aside, what was his hair actually about?
So, you think he is a worthless piece of shit then?
Worse than that, an AMSTRAD!
Let’s face it: Baron Shortarse is a cυnt.
How best to let his constituents know what a c*** he is?

Oh my god what an odious and pompous little shit. This is some of the best publicity the Conservatives could get.

I am speechless that we elect such fucking dipstick it should be illegal
Exactly right. Couldn’t have put it better myself, although, I do save the four letter words for special occasions. You can’t help wondering whether that insult of an MP has ever done a decent days work in his life.
(On second thoughts, this fulfills the criteria for four letter words.)

Can someone honestly tell me why we are spending a fortune for radio to go digital? What earth shattering breakthrough will digital radio make that makes FM redundant apart from the enormous cost?
More money to piss up against the wall,sell the space to the telephone companies maybe they can get another £20billion to waste,it’s nothing about quality as they have shoved so much onto the frequencies you may as well have an AM radio,know wonder most people have gone over to listening to Internet radio.
Exactly right. Digital radio fits into a much smaller frequency range than existing analogue radio, even though there are more channels available.
This frees up the existing frequencies to be sold off for billions, just like the govt did with the 3G licences – and we know how that fucked up the companies involved while making 24bn for Brown’s wasteful coffers!
Seven analogue radios in the house, including an excellent FM portable where the batteries last for ages and the sound quality is great, and a tuner-amp that is now 32 years old and is still excellent. Two further analogue radios in the cars, both perfectly adequate. One digital radio only – I was so disappointed with the quality I refused to buy another. It also eats batteries as thought they are going out of fashion.
So it’s off to the tip in a few years’ time to chuck the whole lot into landfill. What a spectacularly, utterly stupidly ludicrous waste of perfectly good radios!!
I once asked a Tory candidate how the Government could sell something it had neither made nor bought, i.e. sections of the electromagnetic spectrum. It’s a bit like selling somebody the Brooklyn Bridge.
Er ….. no.
Besides, most of the FM stations also appear to be available via Sky – except when it rains, like last night. (Pathetic, isn’t it ?)
If it’s going to be anything like the TV digital channels, I wish they wouldn’t bother. The picture is dreadful. We watch analogue most of the time.
Be still, LabourList troll.

We live in Digital Britain and it is a sinister place. Watching the watchers is the only thing we can continue to do until the watchers (of any party) are forced to stand down (by law, hopefully). The watchers will seek to divide and rule, make some people “deserving” of surveillance and house arrest to condition the rest of us to accept it as normal and even beneficial to the greater good. The watchers must be held, perpetually, to account for their actions, and challenged on their lies and misinformation.

Brown, an unelected PM, having tried to hide an MOD report and push through expenses increases just before he fucked off, is bunking off for several months, leaving his unelected pal Mandy in charge, and yet even mandy’s on holiday abroad.
Call me old fashioned, but I think the person running the country should actually be elected, and should also be in the country.
There should be some kind of constitutional rule that when the leading party just take the piss openly like this and shit all over our democracy, then we have a right to physically take it back and hang them all from lampposts.
Why give the bastards such an easy time ?
you can’t polish a turd
mmm 24 point lead in polls for tories and your 90% certain labour will win and have put money on it , i think at those odds ill take them .
question is charlie what do call a win ?? you need 360 labour seats , you were unable to retain even one council , labour councillors non existant in south .
so where will yo get your seats from ?? hwo do you explain to the elctorate that labour have sold them down the shitter , and still hope to win ??
how much have put on a labour vitory then ??
That’s okay. The more people put more money on Liebour to win, the better odds I’ll get on a Tory win (currently 1-12 with most bookies so not really worth it!)
Sion Simon – I had never even heard of this guy until now, and now having seen him interviewed (how rude and arrogant) and having read his execrable prose… well now I fucken HATE him.
How The Fuck did gits like him get their filthy mits on the levers of power in this country? It beggars belief.
They got power because it is possible to fool a large enough number of the people for a long enough time.
I know, but I never voted for them. And nor did three quarters of the electorate at the last General Election.
I think the Tory commenters on this blog might want to take a step back and look at goals versus their own ego.

Personal Insolvency i.e. credit card and personal loan debt is only just starting to work its way through the system.Personal Credit Card debt in the UK is huge and it’s expected that approx £1.5Bn will not be repaid.These figures are just starting to percolate through as people lose their jobs and are unable to make repayments or bounce credit betewwn banks and financial institutions.The third and fourth qtrs of 2009 are going to be pretty bad – the figs for personal insolvency for last quarter shoe personal insolvencies running at 33,000 expect that figure to double in the next two quartiles(and that is a conservative estimate I’m afraid to say)The recession is very far from over – it will take until the second quarter of 2011 before people start to see an improvement in their employment prospects.

I’ve lived like king with credit card debts of £45,000. Of course I would never have done such a thing until New Labour introduced personal bankruptcy, so thanks for that you utter wankers. Now it’s up to every tosser in the country to cover my licentious lifestyle, so fuck the lot of you.

The nuanced aspects of Keynesian economics, the shift in global politics, and world poverty have something to say. The Anglo-American dance with Reagan-Thatcher economics is over. This will be scary for the egos who’ve done well under that scheme but they’re going to have to get used to it.
The mass psychology versus the party psychology of the right have crashed, and the left of centre train is in tune with the underlying national and global economic flow. That means developing success and society from the ground up is where it’s at. The right don’t naturally get this so have a problem.

After the election, Alistair Darling lands a job in the small desert state of Qumran, where he is to revitalise their economy.
The first year there is no improvement.
The second year there is still no improvement.
The third year they run out of sand.
Bit unfair on Darling given the pile of shit he was left with. And it was a pile of shit from 2002 when Brown started borrowing 30bn a year to pay the million bastards, bedwetters and box-tickers he plucked from the obscurity of the dole queue.
Honestly, this level of discussion is like listening to a bunch of armchair footballers argue over whether the goal was open or not. It’s just talk and doesn’t mean a thing.
Maybe it’s just me but I’d rather talk about the facts and see less macho posturing over whose political party has the bigger willy. Let’s face it guys: you’re just atmosphere.
SSSsssssss…
Be still, grasshopper.
Charles, you don’t know the meaning of discussion.
You deal only in monologues. Endlessly talking to yourself. Now, go start a new thread.
Be still, LabourList troll.
He has sex with himself too.
I see that Mandy (even though not in the country) is now officially in charge rather than Harridan Harpic. At least she’s got her wish – there’s still a woman in command.

Ive just dragged this from simple simons bio,interesting stuff(not!)
Born to Susan Boyle in December 1968, Sion Simon the bastard son of Jeremy Kyle grew up in North Birmingham. He was educated at Hansworth’s world renound comprehensive school and ruskin College for mentally challenged students, Oxford. Political from his earliest memory, he joined the Labour Party aged 16 in 1985 at the height of their popularity.
After polytechnic Siôn worked for the then George Robertson MP (now Lord Robertson of Port Ellen) as his toilet assistant, before going on to become a senile manager at Guinness PLC. He then freelanced for a while before becoming a t-boy at the Daily Telegraph, Daily Express and News of the World as well as associate editor of The Spectator.
My brother went to that Grammar School. It was shit.
They had a kid stabbed to death by another kid in his year. Which would be the year ahead of this Sion Simon cυnt. I’d say he stabbed the wrong kid.
This was back in the 1980′s before it became de rigeur to carry weapons in school.
Derek Draper with Claire Short’s voice
What a bitter and twisted imbecile!
He is soooo gonna win Labour the next election……NOT!
Go for it Sion, make Britain Tory!!
To be honest, I thought it was more Claire Short with Derek Drapers voice.
Wanker
That clip was surreal … like some kind of black comedy / Steve Coogan sketch.
What a Hunt
Perhaps there isn’t much talent left in Mandelson’s big tent, he’s scraping the bottom of the barrel nowadays. That election cannot come soon enough. A change of government, and lots of new faces for both main parties will be a fresh of breath air. In that respect I suppose the expenses scandal was a good thing, it has forced a lot of those whose motives were not what they might be to step down. Let’s hope the new intake is better than the old.
Come on, Mandelson – call that election now.

Baltic Dry Index has worst week since October meltdown
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/economics/5990051/Baltic-Dry-Index-has-worst-week-since-October-meltdown-as-Chinese-demand-slows.html
That’ll be the green shoots of recovery then. Record personal insolvencies and shipping rates still tanking due to lack of demand.
And the imbecile in chief printing an extra 50bn quid every three months. Do you remember what a big fuss it was on Black Wednesday when the UK lost 3.4bn quid? Now we lose 3.4bn quid every fucking Wednesday. And have been for years.
It’s fucked. We’re all completely fucked by this idiot government.
The MSM describe diluting the currency as “injecting money into the system”! It’s so partisan it’s scary.
It really is that simple. Diluting the currency. Diluting your savings. Diluting your pension.
And you have the Maximum Ibecile, the man who thought he’d discovered the magic number. 30bn quid. The amount to borrow each year that produces infinite house price rises of 15% a year. For ever.
The Maximum Imbecile who made that decision is now uniquely qualified to figure out how much we must dilute our currency by. Every year.
Fucking comical isn’t it.
Hahahahaha.
Reminds me of the good old days when we screwed Vale of Glamorgan Council. The District Auditor didn’t think much of us, though.
Looks like Sion’s career has done much better than mine since then.
Sion Simon is a square jawed brute of a man or is he a block of sweaty processed cheddar?
Well, since he’s about 4ft nothing in his high heels, I’d say a small turd.

Labour is made up of some real black comedy figures. gordon, hatty, sion……
I now see there is an unofficial ‘Stop Harriett’ campaign underway to stop mad hatty getting the leadership when gordon finally hits the end of the road.
Chief among the ringleaders are a number of Labour women MP’s who reckon her shrill obsession with outdated 1970′s feminism is a disaster for the party. Bit of a laugh really since the party has already collapsed into a heap of steaming cow dung – but there you go!
Anyway colleagues have been heard deriding the fact that she is so obsessively feminist that she has insisted her three children take her surname, not Jack’s.
One Labour MP said of her ‘ she’s out for herself – she should remember all her colleagues aren’t entirely stupid’ Hmm not sure about that …
Probably sensible that they take her surname. You can always be sure who the mother is. A misandrist like her might get up to all manner of silly arsery.
Well you’re quire quite right – a family historian once said to me that one always had to take with a pinch of salt the statement ‘ my father is my mother said..’
I was interviewing a lad who had applied for a job in the stables at Waad Towers. When I asked him if he’d ever shoed a horse, he said “No, but I’ve told a donkey to bugger off”. I think he meant Sion Simon.
He should be hung like a donkey.
He should be so lucky
So mandy has taken over the running of the country from hatty who has gone off to Italy for a holiday – well her vocal cords sure do need a rest. But I bet she hasn’t gone to Berl*sconn*s villa in Sardinia!!
And mandy ? Oh he’s still in Corfu running the country from Nat R*tschchild’s poolside.
I wonder if gordon is now going to phone him up at 5am every morning just like he did hatty?
Italy? Holiday? Hectoring, patronizing woman?
I suspect Toynbee may be involved.
Just imagine pollytwaddle and madhattie together over dinner!!!!
I prefer to picture them burning at the stake.
Add Jacquiboots and the Ginger One, and you’re well on the way to a coven.
Don’t forget Clare Short and Hilary Armstrong , not to mention that Luton North nightmare MP!
Why is it that Labour attracts these hard as nails, uncaring, women
Why do they think that women who believe in nurturing families and being there – just because they’re needed , are wrong???!!!
Hubble bubble = toil and trouble
Nothing wrong with being ‘hard as nails’ Nell. A lot of women are hard as nails judging from the staggering abortion rates.
The problem is not that they’re ‘hard as nails’. The problem is that they’re ‘thick as shit’. Utterly, beyond parody, thick as shit.
By their idiocies shall you know them.

Peter Mandelson
from his holiday in Corfu by Blackberry
This is how low this country has sunk
It’s also probably unconstitutional
But, who cares…..??????
I’ve just read the New Statesman Article.
Ahahahahahahaha hahahahaha haha.
Ha.
Ha.
Fucking priceless. As wrong as wrong good be. The wrongest thing in a big box of badly wrong things from the planet WRONG. The fucking idiot must have just finished reading his Ladybird book of Alexander the Great when he wrote that shit.
Next he’ll be wanting to name a city after his fucking horse.
What a gold-plated, five star, delusional jackass.
The comments after the article, on the other hand, are quite good value….
O/T sorry.
Three paras have died in the last 24 hours , killed by a roadsdide bomb and ambush. A fourth is critically injured. Another died on Tuesday. He was a teenager.!! Total to date 195. What For??!!!!
And where the hell are those Ridgebacks.??? Not to mention properly armoured helicopters????!!!!
Where is bob aintbuntingagut ?? – presumably he’s gone back to his holiday rather like mandy relaxing by his poolside with a G&T.
FFS he comes from a welsh speaking family, chippy fecker.
In all seriousness its just depressing.

Just watching news on TV where the Taliban are having a big meeting.
Militwit says he can win these men over to our side. So why are we putting our soldiers into harms way and watching them get killed???!!!
If you can win these men over Militwit then get our men out and stop pontificating!!!!!
If Millipede thinks that the Taliban are going to roll over and have their tummies tickled, he must be greener than grass. Of course they’ll listen politely – then if they don’t get what THEY want, it’s straight back to RPGs, IEDs and all the other horrors. Two hundred years of history should tell him that. Oh – silly me – Nulab don’t do history, do they?
I thought I told you to fuck off Miliband.
So, fuck off, resit your ‘A’ levels and see if you can improve on a ‘D’ this time.
You can lease their loyalty.
If we can see em having a meeting, then what about a meeting with a missile? Or dont we do missiles any more?
What’s the point? Totally bankrυpt of ideas this lot, and always have been. Hopeless!
Just listening to “Any Questions” on Radio 4. How pleasant to listen to a panel with no politicians on it. The debate was thoughtful, respectful of each others points of view, and quite informative. Eddie Mair makes a good chairman, too – not many interruptions. Best edition of AQ for weeks.
Life without politicians Eng .Lovely thought. Don’t I wish!!
Early start tomorrow.Not looking forward to lots of driving.
Good Night. God Bless. Keep our lads in Afghanistan safe!!
Have a safe and uneventful journey, nell. Enjoy the holiday!
“Are we nearly there, yet?”
Were the audience on mogodon?
Don’t you think I look a bit like John Major?
Hey, blow on this Edwina!
Suck on this Edwina. Suck on this.
I don’t know why it’s called a ‘blow’ job. It’s obviously a ‘suck’ job. Like sucking eggs. Actually, I should probably not mention eggs to you should I?
Anyway, get sucking biyatch – it’ll give you something to write about in your otherwise unsaleable autobiography.
And yet sucking eggs is best achieved by ‘blowing’ eggs. How about that.
Blow jobs – the ‘ying’ to the ‘yang’ of sucking eggs.
‘Blow’ job originated from the early 60′s hippie movement and referred to the practice of nicking a small hole in the scrotal sac and inflating it by blowing through a straw. This had the efeect of giving enhanced orgasms during intercourse.
Ouch….

I’ll have to have a look at that video hubby was playing, it looked like a recipe for toad-in-the-hole but I didn’t have my glasses with me.
After watching an episode of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, I started wondering of something akin to America’s “Liberty bonds” might have some traction. We’re, effectively, on a war footing and it’s one way of raising finance and giving people an equity stake. Indeed, some companies could broker similar deals with employees which might help create more of a “start up” mentality and develop focus and boost morale.
Hmmm. This recession could be fun.
Be still, grasshopper.
Okay, you’ve piqued my interest. Please explain further…

I’ve done stuff and been around, and read stuff, and discussed things with people. Folks with my personality type tend to develop deep interests in a wide variety of subjects, extrapolate and connect the dots without missing a beat. I’m just leveraging that.
Jeez, just let it go.
Be still, grasshopper.
I’m still waiting for a reply to 919…
“There’s an old saying in Tennessee — I know it’s in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can’t get fooled again.”
Folks! Fucking Folks!
Chas wants to be McTwattyboy’s Karl Rove. He’s gone all downhome. When Gannon arrives he’s going to find out exactly what a pain in the arse is.
When people let go, they take a step back and what was previously a big mountain becomes a small pebble, and what was once tightly siezed upon just becomes another thing to throw away. Our certainty and emotions can get in the way, hence the Zen phrase: “Zen mind, beginner’s mind.”
As I commented at the beginning of this crisis, calm was a top priority. Now, I believe, the worst of the shock is over people might be in a better position to “let go”, so focus can swivel to being creative and sociable which will help generate solutions and consensus. Success will naturally flow in its own time, and in its own way.
“There are no problems, only undiscovered opportunities”.

There I was thinking that Labour were just a bunch of crooks, lefties and nutters, then this big-chinned wanker comes along and opens up a whole new category.
no wonder gordon has been apointing lords if sion simon is the best of the talent in the coomons

We put the mmmmm… into mutton.
It is good to know that the ‘Peter Principle’ is alive and well and that people are still being promoted to the level, and area, of their incompetence…
Check out this video of Sion Simon “addressing” a conference — hilarious
Hey, has that dude Brown done another gig on youtube yet? He was such a funny guy.
Not one single coherent sentence in his reply.
The hand gestures alone would be more use to a man lost at sea.
WTF was he on about & WTF was he on? Incoherance personified.
What the fuck ? It is no surprise at all that our education system is so shite when we have verbose whinge-bags being led by donkeys like Sion Simon…
A lot of words that say absolutely Fuck All…………………..
Some people used to think digital watches were a neat idea.
Where can I get a decent cup of tea?
Your all a bunch of useless bloody loonies
At least we know the difference between “your” and “you’re”.
If you want to get this ugly fucker off your screens, there’s a new thread running.
West Wales is full of aggressive little clunts like Sion Simon.
There’s something of the George W about that chap
What a complete and utter total pillock. Please, please put Sion Simon him on the telly more, Labour will nose dive even further. 1% poll rating by 2010?
Great viewing, 100% on the cringe factor scale; I would love to see him perform on Dimbleby’s question time…
Is it Clare Short in a suit???
(Apologies to Miss Short, as I genuinely believe she has more ball’s than Toys R Us).

He is the most extraordinarily pompous man in prose, and an utter berk on TV

The most alarming news this week is that Gordon Brown exists by microwaving meals for one late at night! So it begs the question where is Mrs B. and also explains why Cyclops is a serial nail biter, he’s collecting the ripped off nail and adding them to the microwaved meals for a bit of protein.
What I cannot understand is why Labour who by all accounts will be in the wilderness after the next General Election (unless of course Mandy invokes the Civil contingencies act and cancels the GE next year) is letting matters slide over the Summer and no one seems to give a damn. Something is happening that we are not being told about. Perhaps the GE is being cancelled????
This is my silly season take on matters, perm any three:
Mandy dumps peerage fast tracked into Commons.
Brown formally appoints Mandy deputy
Harmon pushed up to Lords
Lord Sugar drops talk of legal action against Letts as Mail wades in
Mrs Brown discreetly files for divorce (see increasingly strange tweets on twitter)
Cameron will slap on 25% VAT as soon as elected but revised list of exempt products and services will be increased
Non-Dom loopholes will be tightened up by tories on election
Foreign Exchange Controls to be re-introduced
NHS to bid for part of new US Health Service and effectively export NHS model (no one saw that one coming)
Police will extend Duckhouse expenses enquiry as current investigations uncover astronomical levels of political corruption
Outsider takes over as CEO of ITVplc immediately reverts The Bill to previous format, time slots and sig. tune!
STV leaves Channel 3 syndicate
English Cricket team and coach sacked
David Lammy runs for Mayor of London, election halted pending expenses investigation
Railway between London and Norwich ripped up and turned into guided busway (Gorn they seem t’ work when the trains orn strike, so we’ll ‘ave em al the time)
Final chain of gastropubs close They were the last remaining pubs in the UK.
Imported Real Ale from Poland £4 a pint. UK real ale breweries all closed months ago due to Gordon Browns Escalator tax regime.
sion simon needs a shoeing
I recently sat on a committee meeting in the House of Commons where Sion Simon was giving evidence in his capacity as Minister.
He was the only attendee who wasn’t in a jacket and tie – open shirt, sleeves rolled up, arrogantly slouching in his chair. A complete disgrace and an embarrassment as a representative of this Government.
read the link , wtf,sion is tottally bonkers
I think this guy is brilliant, but for all wrong reasons.
Can you imagine going ouf for a drink with him, Balls, Draper, McPoison, they are a truly revolting bunch of gobshite turds, but in the case of SS he really mops up the title for trying to use big words all the time (nice hair BTW).
I am amazed Labour let him on TV and whats all this “shut up” stuff clearly missed the press/media relations training course. Obnoxious, powerless, useless waste of money and space.
What a prick! With the hair and the hard man attitude I suspect he fancies himself! God preserve us from prats like this.
Not sure if the word Hunt is allowed on here, but i’ll give it a go.
What an overbearing pathetic Hunt Sion Simon is. So glad the lady interviewer managed not to lose her cool when talked down to by this Hunt and actually let him ramble on to prove what a complete and utter Hunt he is.
Les in Thailand, the land of no stopping motorists to fill up government coffers for MP’s expenses and where i can use my PC for pretty damn much what i want.
