Who Will Be Celebrating the Revolution?
It is the 40th Anniversary of the Libyan Revolution next week (Tuesday). This is a very big deal for the socialist dictatorship, invites have gone out from the Libyan Embassy to cabinet ministers and normally the foreign office would ensure that someone senior up to and including the Foreign Secretary was in attendance.
Tricky given current circumstances with all that untapped oil and those defence sales opportunities. Don’t forget the military training we provide to the Libyan dictatorship. A lot of money is at stake. Who from the government will risk the paparazzi? Guido is betting on Ivan Lewis…
Miliband will go to cement his high profile fuckwittery.
It will be a source of endless mirth for the photo opportunities and verbal gaffs the fucking idiot will manage to create.
The yanks are just going to love this.
It will suit Gadaffi to drive a firther wedge between the Little Satan and the Great Satan by making sure there are high profile contracts awarded to UK companies. The rest of the arab world will be pissing their dish-dashes with laughter too.
We socialist dictatorships must stick together, donchano. Does it count if Alex Salmond goes as King of the Scots? He’s got one o’them ethic dresses he can wear and a ceremonial Braveheart wig.
Isn’t “socialist dictatorship” a tautology by now?
Serfdom – coming to a neighbourhood near you.
Of course the Great Satan is in there too.

Why is a Minister of the devolved Scottish government dictating foreign policy for the whole of the UK? Is it not the case that the Edinburgh parliament only has responsibility for internal, Scottish, affairs; and that anything connected with foreign relations is handled by the UK Foreign Secretary? So whilst the ‘Lockerbie bomber’ was tried correctly under Scots law, his release – being a matter of foreign relations – should have been handled by the FCO.
Yeah, let the scotts people drill their own oil and let the english and welsh drill the middle east. FCO Fossil Carbon Orifice is it?
I think that you are correct and Edinburgh has devolved responsibilty for internal scottish affairs and as far as I know has no brief to handle foreign relations on behalf of the UK.
I cannot believe that anyone in the Scottish Parliament would have been stupid enough to have ruled on this case off their own bat without consulting Westminster because it involved the repatriation of a prisoner to a foreign country and raises serious questions of an international nature not the least of which directly affects our oldest ally or am I being old fashioned?
Our oldest ally? The Portuguese? WTF have they been saying about all this?
I vote for Peter Mandypoof yo go, he will sell ANYONE out for personal gain, and has NO shame in it. He has no shame in trying to stick dirt on innocent people so long as he can get away with his crimes.
I vote we send the entire cabinet. We can then prevent them from regaining entry back into this country because they fraternised with a known terrorist sympathiser and supplier of illegal arms. We don’t want scum like that coming to our shores, do we…?
They’ed Get Back In Via The Back Of A Lorry Through Dover Hidden Under Boxes of Fags and Drugs !
Fags, did I hear?
Yes, Mandelslime is the one to go – after all he knows the Gadafis pretty well by now. He could travel there in Deripaska’s yacht, since he is also his crony and Rothschild’s too.
He Prod-ably Knows Gaddafi’s Son “inside And Out “
You cannot send Mandy unless you can stop him nipping over the border to Marrakech, so why not send Hattie?
Can you imagine the fun she’d have telling the Libyans that men are a bunch of f**kwits?
He’d have to let Gadaffy shake his right hand. I’m just off to vomit at the thought.
Send Russ Abbot He’s Got More Credibility ! Seeeeee yoooooo Gadaffi !
Send for MaCavity aka as MacBeth aka McDoom aka Jonah aka Broon aka the worst Prime Mentalist in living memory, presiding over the nastiest most imcompetent bunch of crooks, liars and thieves in modern history……if you can find him, that is…..
If you don’t like James Gordon, why don’t you say so plainly, without all that obfuscation?
I say we should send the following members of the New Labour Crime Syndicate – on a one way ticket to nowhere:
The Hand of Mand – the consiguileri to the unpleasant little Godfather – Don Bruiniari, father of Mikey & Sonny Boy Milibland. Other reps of the crime family: Hattie the Hat, Fatboy Prescott, Lefty Benn, The Postman, Fingers Darling, Baby Face Balls and trigger man Ainsworth are all bound for Sing-Sing or Alcatraz.
Miliband will try and sneak in under cover of a large black burqa – keep an eye out for the lady with the banana. Fnarr, fnarr Mrs Slocombe……..
Damn, you already have guessed my proposed disguise. I guess that it’ll have to be that banana costume after all.
How about a ride-on emu?
Just send Kevan fucking Jones.
I would send Ainsworth.
He can’t possibly suffer a further fall in his rock bottom credibility and if the Libyans decided to trump up some charges and hold him in jail for 7-8 years who would care.
Not after those two goals at the weekend surely?
I was offered a job in Tripoli a few weeks ago – with an American Oil company – which I declined.
Not for altruistic reasons but because Salt Lake City sounds like more fun than Tripoli. It is easier to get a stiff drink in Saudi than in Libya.
Hah! I can beat that. When US sanctions were full-on in Libya I know of one US company not 100% unconnected with Dick Cheney which was carrying out seismic research in Libya. And importing state of the art US gear (carefully rebadged in Malta) to do it.
I’m surprised the Democrats never took him to task. The Republicans under Bush seemed very keen to prosecute individual US citizen ‘sanctions busters’ who use their revered greenbacks on holiday in Cuba.
Mind you, state of the art US gear at the time was the MDS16 (might have been MDS18) which had line boxes which were the size and weight of two car batteries. Real handy for dune work.
NOT. Fucking pieces of shit.
Meanwhile, the rest of the civilised world was using Sercel. Including the Chinese who’d done their usual trick of buying one, dismantling it and making their own for next to nothing.
Could we send Gordon to them!!
What Is An MDS16 Or Even An MDS18 ? What Is A “line box ?
Socialism produces the best Reverse Engineers.
Thick Cunt – if you have an hour or two to spare…
http://www.patentstorm.us/patents/4908802/description.html
Sorry for being a thick c*nt but we dont have any of those behind our counter at McDonalds ! If someone came in and asked for an MDS18 i’d have to reply “Do You Want frie’s with that ?”
Fuck me Wouldn’t like to get in a conversation with this Huhne in the pub ! Talk a glass eye to sleep ! i haven’t got a sercel ! Or an MDS16 Or 18 Neither have any of my mates Is it like an EX box ? Wonder if my mum will buy me one ?
He might feel the same about you titfer
Sercel:
http://www.sercel.com/
This information was brought to you by Google. Enjoy.
Sercel is, I understand, rather like Circle – but slightly less round.
Probably a good move.
Gadaffi ain’t daft. He’s got his man back now he’ll get his revenge.
He’ll just turn from West to East.
I do not know how true this is but I was told the Arabs have a saying about us: ‘The British will buy their enemies and sell their friends’. It makes uncomfortable reading.
Phil O – you should go to Salt Lake City. Lots of good micro-breweries. And in conference season, plenty of crumpet.
Who will joing me in sending a WHITE FEATHER to Gordon Brown the Coward of Dowing Street?
I doubt the majority of people reading this will understand what you’re referring to. The WW2 generation are a vanishing breed.
Sorry to be a c*** but wasnt the white feather from WW1? Who are a positively dead breed now.
The White Feather as an emblem of cowardice is even older I think.Wasn’t there a Zoltan Korda film – “The Four Feathers” based on a Rudyard Kipling stroy in the 1939 and an remake by Shekhar Kapur 2002.That was based on the Sudan War of the 1880′s AND those “Fuzzy-Wuzzies are definitely dead by now.
Also ‘Storm over the Nile’. Anthony steel, Made @late50′s. Great film.
I prefer the black spot, miself
Will strip our canards tomorrow!
X-proud X-pat
A very good idea. Where the fuck is the big feartie?
There’s so much going wrong it looks like Gordon has done a runner. He should be running the country, but instead he’s going to hide under the bed until all this Libya nonsense has gone away, and the economy’s fixed.
You’ll have to make do with the odd Twitter from his missus.
He’s gone to his ‘happy place’. Fucking Kirkcaldy. And if you’re ever unfortunate enough to visit Kirkcaldy then you will understand how truly fucked up your life is if this constitutes your ‘happy place’.
For those of you who don’t know Kirkcaldy – it is shit. It is even more shit than Dunfermline and possibly even more shit than Alloa and Lochgelly. Although as these fucking places approach the limit of shitness it does get difficult to distinguish between them. Perhaps a logarithmic scale might help.
More shit than Swansea?
I got lost in Romford once, looking for the Dartford Tunnel – no SatNavs in those days. If Kirkcaldy is as shit as Romford, it has got problems.
Dear Mr 34,
Swansea is not shit, it’s going forward not back.
Now Flam (Noggin the Nog land) is shit, or maybe thats because I lost a case there once.
No, you’re all wrong. The most shit place in the UK is Corby, by a mile. Mind that’s full of Jocks, too.
H.M.S. Rodney
Tony Bliar said “Forward Not Back”, do you still want to use that phrase?
Dear Anti,
Wash my vent out with carbolic, what I meant was “up not down”
Yours with horror
The most shit place in Britain is Northampton, in fact you
cannot have a shit there the council has closed all the public
toilets. They are thinking of erecting a giant suppository as
a peice of public art for the town as it is now the sort of place
where a supository should be put,
the biggest shite placement is Harleepool or Fooy
But nowhere – nowhere – is as shitty as Glenrothes.
He’s planning a party in Downing Street for the England cricket team. Ot was that some udder speaking on his behalf.
A STATEMENT PLEASE, GORDON
It wasnae me!
Here’s two more statements:
“It started in America” and
“it’s global” as if we didnay ken.
Brown says he wishes he hadn’t sent that letter to Gadaffi telling him to keep things quiet. Red rag to a bull that one.
It started in the FSA, not the USA.
Unofficial Statement: I’m getting on with the job and predict a 0% increase in horse $hit. British Jobs for British workers & Bank Jobs for people who wear balaclava’s.
And The Scotish Justice Minister Thought “It Was The Right Thing To Do” And I Had Nothing to Do With It As I Was on Holiday And On The Day He Decided To Do It My Phone Was In For Repair !
Not only wis it no me – the toories wid ha’ done nothing.
Reuters, London, August 24th:-
Police in Kirkaldy are investigating the grotesque discovery of a man’s body by the banks of a local river. The man, estimated to be aged in his late 50s was wearing a dark-coloured lounge suit and a red tie. It is believed that he drowned.
Police describe the carcass as hideously bloated and very, very ugly. They estimated its decomposition had begun several years ago.
The only clue so far as to the man’s identity is a note found on him which reads: “Please tell Rothschild, Kissinger and Rockerfeller that ah did my best to try to brang in the New Global Order but it wuz ahl too dufficult. I’m very, very sorry it did’nae work oot.”
The body was found by a local fisherman who initially mistook it for a stray Beluga whale. They are also searching for a man desribed as in his mid 50s wearing a panama hat, beige slacks and brothel creepers who was seen in the area at about the same time.
Well, this obviously cannot be the missing Gordoom because he never apologises for anything.
“Our brave troops have all the equipment they need, and if they tell you otherwise, they’re liars.”
“No you can’t have a referendum on the EU constitution. I KNOW I promised one, but I was lying.”
He’s got much more important matters to attend to, like twittering and watching X-Factor.
I Wonder If He’s Knobbed Susan Boyle Yet ?
Susan has standards.
The gorgon should go, it would round off his career perfectly.
On the other hand, perhaps newlabour could send prezzer, he could try out some of those tasty Libyan goat pies, and Pauline could attend in the new style hareem trousers. They’d both have to squat in a tent, there lies the rub.
He Could Stay Here and Get Some Goat Cheese From Mangledbum’s Bell End !
Help me bob – it wont be the Broons?
the boy Miliband will go and will probably insult the Libyans as he did the indians. we then have to send mandleson to apologise for the yts foreign secretary … and then have to send the met fraud squad to investigate what mandleson got up to in ‘secret’ meeting with the Libyan govt.
we could send gordon and mandy
Yes Down a very deep mine shaft.
Guido, I am a pedantic, old-school military type so please excuse me.
“Invite” is a verb. The word you needed was invitation.
Apart from that; keep it up!
Be more specific, Johnny G., old chap: keep it up whom?
Ivan Lewis? But he’s a…
sex pest.
Ha ha, you thought I was going to be unkind and anti-semen.
PS send organs.
We need oil and gas, don’t we? We would actually starve, or freeze, if we didn’t have any. So sucking up to the Libyans – or making war on Saddam – make sense. Let’s look after our own interests here.
dead right fella. Your name has been forwarded to Army Recruiting. Report Helmand ASAP. Best of British, Mr Dickwad.
Please explain how your comment follows from mine. Afghanistan has no oil.
Actually, Afghanistan does have some small proven reserves of oil and gas, and is thought to have larger unexplored reserves. It is also on the best route of a pipeline from oilfields around the Caspian sea to India, an increasing oil consumer.
Probably not a major factor in the original post 9/11 decision to take military action in the area, but now….who knows….
Can you imagine laying a pipeline over the Hindu Kush? If it could be done the cost would be prohibitive and it would take 15 years.
Almost anything is technically possible. Whether or not it is economically viable, and whether political stability could be guaranteed for long enough, are other matters.
From memory,bags of gas in The swampy bit round Bangladesh, but fuck all industry to make it worthwhile developing. Even the economics of getting it to India was a non-starter, so forget building a pipeline across Afghanistan.
ps. Labour are a bunch of Huhnes. Pps, have they actually touched anything , without it turning into a snafu ?
It’s a pipe line they want to move the oil Right through Afghanistan. So what’s the difference oil isn’t much good without a pipeline.
126 Engineer: if anything is technically possible, how come those Mk 3 Chinooks cant fly?
In this dog eat dog world, selling stuff or buying it is the name of the game.
Knowing Labour we will get the worst of both worlds out of this Libyan fuckup.
A bad reputation and no contracts.
ZaNuLiebore will have the FCO to ably assist them in negotiating defeat.
‘Snatching Defeat from the jaws of Victory’ – it’s what we do…
[sound of insects, occasional roars of tigers, faint beating of drums, barely-audible chanting from distant crowds of massing natives, hiss of Tilley-lamp]
‘Well, Carstairs, I think we did well.’
‘Of course, Merryweather, of course: I’ve sent a dispatch to the Orfice, well, two, act’lly…’
‘Two, Carstairs? Well, I’ll be deuced!’
Yes, Merryweather, you see, one to the Inja Orfice, and one to the Foreign Orfice.’
‘By Jove, old chap, what thinkin’! I mean, Inja Orfice, obviously, but, hang it all, it’s not as if Inja’s really foreign, is it!’
‘No, I know, Merryweather. Peckin’ order though, donchasee? [the drums are sounding nearer, the maddening sound of insects more persistent, some words from the miasma of chants float clearly through: 'Kill the foreign devils!' 'Your knives are surely blunt, Chai.' 'Exactly and of course, Din: the honourable gentlemen would not wish but to die heroically, now, would they?'] This is a climb-down of such immense significance, that it’s bound to be of interest to the F.O. – Just think! After all this, we could be part of the F. O. Manual: ‘How to let people Down Gracefully.’ [a shot whistles through, the chanting is now insistent, enraged, and close, there are sounds of things being ripped up and things being smashed]
‘Yes, Carstairs: stroke of genius that was! We had them at our mercy, surrounded, and ready to grovel, no more gunpowder… ‘Go home, we said. We will not harm you, your wives, or your children. We will be beneficent. And, to show our good faith, we will give the Garrison orders to return to Imla at first light.’ And hark, how the natives are celebrating our good-nature!’
[The mob obviously breaks in, the drums and chanting now deafening. There is one faint cry of 'I say...!' stopped by a slashing sound, some groans just heard under the wild rejoicing, and sounds of the place being set on fire.]
“It’s worse than dog eat dog; it’s dog doesn’t return other dog’s phone calls!” (Woody Allen)
Any nice looking birds in Libyas Embassy? I’ve this thing about older ones.
I haven’t got ime to go the Libyan do. i’ve got my hands full here, what with naive secs, PAs, interns, the odd tasty old bint. It’s a hard life.
There is a dead good looking bird in uniform outside.
… “dead good looking…”
There was a young fellow called Dave,
Who kept a dead whore, in a cave.
You might think it takes pluck,
To have a cold ****,
But think of the money you’d save!

Who said true socialists never got fat on politics?

Do they do goat pie?
Send bloody Flintoff; he’s no use to the cricket team.
What a complete proof that devolution has failed. The Scot Govt cannot be bothered to protect it’s own people from terrorism. The message is that if you are a terminally ill fanatic, you can commit an act of mass murder in Scotland and you will be released once convicted.
interesting letter in today’s Times. Apparently Scots law allowed the release of the mass murderer but the the national border agency of the UK sanctioned him leaving the Uk. Brown and Labour are on up to thierry necks. With a bit of lick the Scottish whiskey industry will collapse because of the US no longer wanting to buy the wrethed stuff. The UK isn’t going to the dogs, we’ve been there since Labour were elected and we are broken socialy,economically and as a consequence of this “release on compassionate grounds” devoid of any honour.
Compassion, COMPASSION!. Balls
We’ll just Bomb the bastards from our bases here in olde England. Then we’ll bring democracy to these oil producing Jocks..
Whisky surely?
Shit politicians surely.
The Scots and the Irish spell the word differently.
It’s no different to the pardoning, release and courting of those involved with the IRA. Other than of course, there is the doubt that they got the right man in this case.
Litre of petrol £1.20 by end of year. Bankers’ bonuses don’t pay for themselves.
Hell. So Gordon is STILL Missing in inaction, is he?
Surely somebody has lost the key to the bunker. He must be hating not being able to hang on to the Ashes teams tails.
im a wee scotsman frae leith –sitting here with my wee terrier getting ready too hear–scottish parliament debate on lockerbie bomber re-lease.
the UK PM has already bottled it–hes a fearty–NAE B-ALLS–NAE STATEMENT
Speaking of Alex Salmond. What the fuck has he NOT been eating this past year. Having finally escaped I’ve been religiously avoiding Scottish news for over a year now but I caught sight of the pie-based one in some report or other yestarday.
For Salmond to get so fat there must be some people starving to death in Scotland.
He looks like Mr Mangetout. His belly goes all the way up to his ears. He’s like Cyril Smiths lovechild.
You know if you stretch a surgeons glove over your head and blow through your nose then you end up with a fucking great comedy balloon with a teeny little fringe on top of your head? Well Salmond seems to have climbed into the fucking glove and blown it up from below.
A fucking great balloon with a few withered limbs sticking out.
He looks like one of the Tweedles on ‘It’s a Knockout’.
All Hail Fatso. King of the Nasties.
“…Cyril Smiths lovechild” (sic).
Glad there’s no space between the last two sylables.
Excuse the spelling.
After that vile diatribe, I would like to say I like Alex Salmond! And I’m sure he’s a damn site cleverer than you.
Sorry, sight. and me!
I doubt he is cleverer than me but if he is then it’s a shame that he, like Brown, decided to use their ‘gift’ for evil.
But I have no doubt he’s more mendacious than me. And he’s definitely a fuck of a sight fatter than me.
The big fat pig.
I saw Alex Salmond quite recently, (about 6 months ago), and he certainly was not overweight. His dream is to make Scotland independent, and I support him in that dream. Scotland on it’s own could be a great nation, problem is, a certain type of educated Scot who profess to love their native land but insist on seeking fame in England, and elsewhere. You have to admit he has winning eyebrows!
Your vindictive comments make me think you have some personal grudge against him?
239 I saw Ruby Rubberknees recently (about six months ago) and she was pretty trim: saw her last week, my gore, like the side of a house! If she doesn’t drop in the next few weeks!
By the way, I won’t comment on your grammatical faux-pas’s: “it’s”, when it should be ‘its’; “…a certain type who profess…”, when it should be ‘professes’; “you make me think…?” when a statement, not a question, is concluded with a question-mark. Then there’s “Scotland on it’s own could be a great nation, problem is, a certain type of educated Scot…”: try “Scotland on its own could be a great nation: the problem is, a certain type of educated Scot…”
“I won’t comment on your grammatical faux pas’s”, ….. not consistent, why did you?
No subtitles in English but here is the pie-based First Minister With Special Portfolio For Hating The English. I’d say he was a fat c-unt based purely on the evolutionary defunct second chin.

I mean, if you can live without your appendix, what is that extra two or three kilos of lard hanging off his jaw used for?
Eh? Eh?
He looks like a million Scottish alcoholics before him. His face and eyes puffed and swollen and just on the cusp of bagging his very own roundabout for swearing at the traffic.

I think the queen should go.
Gotta be Prince Andrew surely – oops no hang on – belay that – delete- we’ve already dealt with that one !!
You’ve had enough knife and forkers this year already. Let young Bryant go, in his pants of power.
Jeeezus H,
Back in the states this thing has really taken off and got some legs.
If the British Government sends anyone to this socialist revolution celebration you may as well just take the stars & stripes out onto the Mall and crap on it.
The “released at a pace in time for Ramadan” is going down like a shit sandwich stateside as are the oil deals Gordon Brown has done behind the scenes.
Is it true Gordon Browns brother works for a big French Energy Company?
This is really getting bleak for Scotland – and Britain in fact coz the American public are no longer in listening mode. You cannot reason with the American public when they are in this mood – and are likely to be so for some time.
Hadn’t you heard Brown has just announced a “National Holiday” on that day for the UK.
Always a popular move – we Brits just love taking a “sickie”
You know what – Jeez – the British public are getting pretty pissed off with the yanks too AND we’re starting to get especially brassed off with their double standards.
Jeeez, I was just saying you stuck up arse.
the americans are never in listening mode.
that is there problem.
they should listen more to intellectuals like the great and merciful thick as thieves and they wouldn’t make such a pig’s ear of everything.
innit.
For Ten Million People In This Country EVERY Day Is A Public Holiday ! They Sit On’th Arse All Day And The Public Pay For It !
Surely some mistake. Only 645, I think you’ll find.
NOTW recons at least 10,000,000 out of work in one way or another ! Just shows how a lying scum government can “cook the books” !
Then that’s probably the total of not just those unemployed and on disability benefit, but pensioners, civil servants, MPs, teachers, council workers, coppers, doctors, nurses, carers, parking attendants, agents and middlemen of every sort, lawyers, journalists, burger-flippers, taxi-drivers, the non-employed nobles and everyone else who doesn’t actually create wealth for the country. In that case, I’d be amazed if the figure were only 10 million. No wonder we’re so badly in the shit! Who’s actually manufacturing anything for export???
Next time the Yanks want a bit of backing for a UN Resolution on something, they’ll be all over the Brits like a rash. Best buddies, special relationship – you name it.
Well when push comes to shove you can get into the trenches with the ruling liberal EU Islamonazis.
Me?
I will be in the trench with the dudes in the stetsons & cowboy boots.
Have a nice day y’all.
Dream on. When the Yanks need a mates, they’ll be all over the Brits. They always are.
Whether Britain is wise to follow the Yanks in all their adventures is another matter.
Well fine. If they’re not happy with us maybe we should just pull our jolly old troops out of Afghanistan and the surrounding shit-holes. The Aussies and the Canadians would find it increasingly indefensible to keep their troops in if the Brits up and left. Give it 6 months and the Yanks would be entirely on their own.
good point sod ‘em all,
the yanks would get their arses kicked without the support of British troops.
On the Fox News website this is the most commented on subject.
Some good points about survival rates of Prostate cancer being 98% in the USA so Socialised healthcare in the UK must be shit otherwise whatshisbollocks would be fit enough to carry out his sentence.
He’s More Chance Of Surviving Under The Libyan health service !
Dream on.
And Then They Would Have To Do A Runner ! Just Like Vietnam !
Thanks for the laugh.
That’s rubbish tat – the Americans already do most of the fighting.
The USA is big enough, rich enough and resourced enough to pull up their drawbridge and let the rest of the world stew, if they were so inclined.
It is pompous and pointless to criticise the USA for being a foreign country that looks after its own interests. Every country does, though the UK is spectacularly bad at it.
they do it using military force budgie.
they could conquer the world peacefully with their culture.
they have chosen not to be the police of the world, but to be the world’s number one warmongers.
afghanistan is the new vietnam.
are the american and British people up for it? after all the lies we have been fed that led to the attack on Iraq I think not.
I would say we are not willing to consent to the continued illegal occupation of Afghanistan.
it is time to leave and to disengage from what ranks alongside the illegal invasion of Iraq as the worst foreign policy decision made by any British government in the last fifty years.
our foreign policy is self defeating and must be immediately reversed.
and brown must resign.
TROOPS OUT NOW
The Canucks are moving out, they’ve had enough.
Yes, what about a boycott against the Americans?
Boycotting whisky won’t matter.
Boycotting our gilt sales will.
the americans dont have any money to buy our gilts………california is bust and chicago is resorting to desperate money saving measures………..
the u.s is run by criminals and ours by hoons that have never done a days work.
Exactly.
Still, could always sell them to new best friends the Arabs – they seem to own most of Londonistan anyways.
well i dont know where to check the gilt holdings by nation but the u.s t bonds are owned by the chinese,japanese,russians,arab nations and even venezuela!!!!!!
it’s probably similar here in wankistan………
all protecting our way of life!
ffs!
when will the people of the u.s and u.k stop watching fucking soaps and wake up to the fact that our countries are headed for an almighty fall?
” the American public are no longer in listening mode. You cannot reason with the American public when they are in this mood ”
You can’t reason with them at the best of times, since most of them are idiots and are completely ignorant about anything beyond your own shores. ( Politicians included )
Thats just racist.
You stereotype a whole nation based on your narrow bigotted views?
How many Americnas have you met to form this opinion?
I cannot imagine anyone in Britain saying that about any other nationality – particularly those of a certain religion – you are conditioned not to, except for when it comes to Americans.
I blame the BBC for brainwashing you, and you for being a little mentally challenged.
God bless.
It’s xenophobic not racist. But he does have a point, like.
” Thats just racist.
No it’s not. It’s the truth.
You stereotype a whole nation based on your narrow bigotted views?
Not at all, it is well documented that given a globe, your kids don’t even know where they are on the map, let alone anywhere else.
As for the ignorance of your politicians, I will give you, ( just offhand, as I don’t have time now, to go on at length ) one Sarah Palin and please do keep her, with our compliments, preferably locked up somewhere, before she does any real damage to international relations.
For all she may have relinquished the governorship, she still has designs on office.
I will then raise you a Hilary Clinton, who thinks she can tell us what to do. ( Reference to the sharing of sensitive information, most of which comes from Menwith Hill anyway. I’d have given her 48 hours to get the your boys out of there and then we’d see who was in control of the information. New Zealand has no problems sharing the info with us, so quite honestly we don’t need you there, anyway. )
” I cannot imagine anyone in Britain saying that about any other nationality you are conditioned not to, except for when it comes to Americans.”
I just speak as I find, thank you. However, you show your ignorance by not mentioning the French at this stage. Also, your own attitude seems to be confirming what I said, to be fair.
” I blame the BBC for brainwashing you, ”
Is that really the best that you can come up with? D -, Very poor, must try harder!
Since I am quite capable of drawing my own conclusions, I don’t need anyone to tell me what to think, tyvm. In any case, I only watch the BBC news, when there are no other comedies showing, that I want to watch.
As for me being a little mentally challenged, I’d throw that back at you for making a post riddled with nulabourisms. Can’t argue/debate rationally, so just make accusations and try to smear your opponent. Sorry but that just doesn’t impress me one iota.
” God bless.”
There is no such thing as god. So perhaps that makes you even more dillusional. You know, you should write to the gorgon, he might give you a job, it sounds like you’d fit right in.
” It’s xenophobic not racist. But he does have a point, like.”
Sorry I just don’t buy into the attitude that we should follow the US at a drop of a hat. After all, where the hell were they when we needed help during the Falklands war.

Calm down dear!
Yes they have, they’ve said it over and over about the Scots! On this blog! Unfortunately Americans lack a sense of irony. On the whole newlabour, our useless government, and the tories before were totally subservient to the great I Am – America.
Far too many BBC readers here today blindly swallowing anti yank propaganda.
Blindly regurgitating nonsense(*) and thinking you’re superior for doing so is IMHO rather dumb.
In general I think Americans have the same spread of intelligence and knowledge as the U.K. (although they know a whole lot more about our constitution than we g[e|o]t taught in schools). Americans also carry less government burden, and that’s why they tend to be wealthier.
*especially when it’s from a institutionally marxist organisation.
I am frequently in North America and have been for many years and I can tell you that the vast majority of Americans are staggeringly ignorant about anything outside of their State! They certainly couldn’t find Scotland on a map.
What about Blair’s tent agreement with Gadaffi to exchange prisoners We only had one. Bet his lectures go down like a lead balloon from now on. So will his fees.
Gordon says its all “too sensitive to comment on”
Translated this means ‘we have let the SNP fuck this up at horrific cost to international relations but what the hell there may be a few votes in it and when you are this desperate …………

Anthony Linton Blair of course.
He must be laughing himself to sleep at night seeing all the trouble he has caused for Gordon.
Never mind Ivan the Terrible.The only man(?) for this job is MANDY. He’s worked for it and he’s earned it-now it’s time for a grateful nation to express it’s thanks.
Why did Margaret Thatcher overruled her transport secretary, Cecil Parkinson & stopped a public inquiry? It was claimed this was because the US administration did not want an inquiry into Lockerbie, http://bit.ly/QcAmv
That was a very interesting and informative piece.
BUSH DID LOCKERBIE
Releasing terrorists in exchange for oil contracts etc is the kind of thing that most governments do from time to time.
However, most of said governments are competent and manage to get away with it.
Is this implying that our gracious, intelligent, un-money grabbing, trustworthy, concientious, unselfish, and unstinting-servants-of-the-people are incontinent?
Oops, sorry, that should read incompetent.
No, as you were maybe.
Germany’s Constitutional Court says police speed traps unconstitutional. Mass video surveillance of citizens in traffic contravenes a citizen’s constitutional right to go about lawful business unhindered. All fines and penalty points to be anulled.
Meanwhile in La La land Britain Busyies and jumped up muppet Safety Camera Partnership operators can do as they please, receiving payment per number of offenders caught and fined. UK, shithole.
Germany’s not exactly the hub of the free world, though. You take issue about the Holoc***st and question the actual number of dead and you’re looking at up to 10 years imprisonment. Wait until this new European arrest warrant comes in. Your grandad says something on his blog about his belief that only 5.5m died rather than the “official” 6m and the next thing you know, he’s being whisked off to good old Deutchsland for a long, drawn-out show trial.
Seriously ? Any links ?
You are seeing the old Foreign Office dictum in all it’s glory.
“no permanent friends, no permanent enemies”
Business as usual, nothing to see here, pass along.
FO? Camel Corps we called them.
Camel shaggers now though, taking it up the bum from Gaddafi and loving it, apparently.
One thing that has been a little surprising during the Al Megrahi affair and it’s ongoing aftermath is the silence of Dr Jim Swire, the father of one of the Lockerbie victims and a long-time campaigner for the truth of this matter. One suspects that the MSM are conspiring to keep him quiet.
His website, despite some slightly offputting sensationalist language, is interesting:

Gord drags it out again…..”It all started in America”
sending the jewish millipede might be a faux pas?
so that’s probably what they will do then!
as for oil and gas……..we have spunked nearly 40 years of oil and gas money and are beholden to the russians………..
so off we go and cosy up with gaddafi!
you really couldnt make it up……….
still gaddafi doesnt pick his nose and eat it or hide behind a beard or tell everyone that he has saved the world.
I’ve heard though, that he does other unmentionable things!
But none of them is true! All his camels are virgins: I can avouch for that, personally. That he uses boys is a gross slander: his women-guards might look perhaps a little masculine – but what do you expect highly-trained women-soldiers to look like – Victoria Beckham? Many visitors to his tent have attested to the supreme accuracy of his spitting – unlike that of a certain former leader of the Chinese! – and as for wind, you have a saying, ‘the wind bloweth where it listeth…’ so it is with the Leader: roses, we think, Gardenia, orange-blossom…
Don’t know how to draw attention to this any other way Guido so from the Scotsman,
THE head of the Army, General Sir Richard Dannatt (right) bought £5 a head meals from Lidl and Tesco for official entertaining, according to his expenses. Labour’s Lord George Foulkes, a critic of the general, had tabled questions about his expenses in an attempt to embarrass him prior to his retirement.
But they revealed a modest man who purchased bottles of wine for £1.49. His total claim for the past four financial years – including 18 months as Commander-in-Chief Land – came to £19,290.77.
The disclosure came after defence minister Kevan Jones was forced to deny reports of a plot to smear the general in retaliation for his criticisms of government policy
They make me so angry!
Small Change To The Troughing Party’s Scum
Check out Jones’ own expenses – he is consistently one of the greediest pigs at the trough.
He also vehemently opposed the publication of MPs expenses.
Shameless.
It’s projection.
What and how they attack, tells you a lot about what motivates them.

Mandelson may just go to rile the yanks. Obama’s administration doesn’t care for the UK anyway as we add no value to their priorities.
I wonder if some of mandelson’s recent behavior has something to do with having his protate professionally nudged (instead of his usual promiscuous prostate nudging). We all know how irrational and short tempered people become with urinary infections, especially with BPH.
Having had mine re-sectioned a few months ago I can vouch for this. If it’s a success he’ll be pissed off – no need to spend so much time in public toilets.
City guru David Buik saying on Sky that recent rebound in equities is strikingly similar to that seen in 1930 and parallels with the Great Depression remain entirely valid. I for one will be leaving shares alone for a good while yet!
What amazes me about all this “green shoots” of recovery and inflation is on the way rubbish is who is supposed to have the money to buy all the goods.
Until consumers start spending again, the economy is not going to get better. banks are making money because they borrow from the government at 0.50% and speculate with it, not because they are making money out of their core businesses.
Deflation is coming and we have not yet seen the bottom on stock markets in this cycle. Study Japan from late 1989 to see the debilitating effects of a financial crisis caused by overburdening debt (the stock market is still down 73% from the Dec 1989 peak after 19 years of government stimulus). The worse thing this time is the debt are bigger and the crisis is global.
Adjust to the New Normal of lower economic activity and get out of debt as much as you can; this will not be over soon.
What are you talking about? Japan is out of recession. Stimulus spending works! Just ask my ideological chum, Paul Krugman.
That’s me fucked then!

Perhaps they should ask him if he enjoyed his meeting with Nick Griffin back in the 1980s.

OK let’s go and burn down the fucking glorified boat shed now. After all, we paid it.
Naw – it allows them to have the impression that they actually are involved in government- the Scots were Blair’s first victims of his “snake-oil salesman” routine that is before he suckered the rest of us of course with his “straight sorta guy” act before dis-appearing into the sunset to earn millions leaving dear ol’ Gordon in the shit.Let’s face poor old Gordon was Blair’s Biggest Dupe. First he shat on him at Granita and then dumped on him in 2007 whilst making him believe he’d actually achieved something that was just really a “crock of shite”.
Fat Prime Minister Gordon Brown should lose weight, says diet expert
http://www.mirror.co.uk
A US diet expert has slammed the Prime Minister’s anti-obesity campaign – and told him to look in the mirror.
“When someone like Brown is overweight it sends out a message to millions of young people.”
He’s on the deep impact fried mars bar diet. No pain, no gain.
Dear As

You can get an even cheaper one out of the waste bin fixed to the lamp post just along the road.
McMental ain’t been seen for so long ,he might not be such a fat bastard any longer.
Probably still on the “bog” especially after McAskill kept mentioning the UK government involvement and the fact that they declined to give advice prior to the release or acquiesce on the request of the Scottish Executive refuse to allow the Lockerbie Bomber to be excluded from the Prisoner Exchange Agreement with Libya – knowing that Scotland only had ONE Libyan prisoner ;the fact that the calls by MSPs for an enquiry have been firmly knocked into Brown’s court and that the impression has probably been left in the minds of Americans that the names of Blair’Brown and Mandelson (and that the name of Jack Straw came up too – the yanks establishment have already question marks over him after he showed “Condi” Rice around his Bradford constiteuncy when he was Foreign Secretary ). Also that the americans feel that they had an agreement from the British Government that when convicted Al-Megrahi would remain in Scotland until he died(strangely the UK Government can’t find any record of that)and that the UK government aka Brown has reneged on that agreement.It’ll all end in tears for our “Inglorious Leader” I fear !!
“Also that the americans feel that they had an agreement from the British Government that when convicted Al-Megrahi would remain in Scotland until he died(strangely the UK Government can’t find any record of that)”
It could be in Glenrothes with the rest of the lost and not found stuff.
It’s with the piece of paper marked “We Must Give The British People A Vote On The Lisbon Treaty !
He’s probably strangling some organic chicken at this very moment.
The irony of the Americans preaching to us about obesity. And what does it say about them when they twice elected the only president in the Western world who made Gordon Brown look competent and clever. George W Bush.
Here’s a tip yanks. If you don’t want the whole world thinking you’re thick, ignorant yee-haw c-unts then don’t elect presidents like George W Bush.
Just sayin’.
Al Gore was A LOT thicker.
Don’t tell me you swallowed the whole AlGor is clever bullshite (They didn’t even try to pretend Lurch was capable of thought)?
Of course Al Gore is thick. Why do you think they singled him out to promote the cult of global warming?
Bush was a misunderstood genius
And the new messiah is a genius? take your media fitted specs off you fuckin idiot.
Or Barack H. “Wee-wee’d up” Obama.
Kenny MacAskill is just an underling for the Holyrood mafia and probably has no real power.
C’mon, guys, this one’s easy. Send Kenny McCaskill to Libya to represent the whole of the UK (what’s new in another Scot speaking for us all?). Come to think of it this may not work: he’ll have his own, personal invitation anyway, won’t he?
The name is MacAskill , if you can’t get that right the invitation won’t get there.
You must work for the BBBC , they can’t get the Scottish Governments names right either.
Come to think of it neither can Westminster politicians.
Strangely, perhaps, if you do not know how to spell the Scottish Justice Minister’s name (why the fuck would you?) and Google (as I did) Kenny McCaskill – BBC, on the first page you get three BBC websites featuring, wait for it:-
Kenny MacAskill
Kenny McCaskill
Kenny McAskill.
I shit you not. Try it.
Incidentally I don’t work for the BBC: just hope to get the name right from them so I don’t get bollocked by the blog prefect. Thanks anyway.
I Bet His Bank Account Has just Been Enhanced By A Fucking Great Cheque From The State Of Libya
How about Kenny McTwatface? It would be hard to misspell that.
GOD Has a funny sense of humor ! he gave the developed world a bit of oil each ! but gave the bulk of it to the”RAGHEADS AND CAMEL JOCKIES” Which for 90% of them is of no use what so ever ! he also gave us all the arable land we need and stuck all the chosen ones in the fucking desert All the infidels live in nice houses drive nice cars wear nice clothes whilst the arabs ride camels and donkeys dress the same as they did 2000years ago live in tents and mud huts
Dear All
Someone has to go and show face.
Fake outrage is the mood of the moment so someone junior.

Dear George
I suspect you are also a Labour coward whoes income derives from the taypayer
what is it that it is – this decision of mine. Well, this is what it is – my decision that I have, that is to say, which is mine, is mine……
Who are you pretending to be ?
There is no one of that name in the Scottish Government.
That clears that up then.
Your Decision Was Not To Go Against Gordon !
This is the only revalution I am interested in;
Lovely to see someone making the snotgobbler squirm. It’s a shame that Call Me Dave doesn’t give him a similar rollocking in parliament. Maybe it’s because they are both really on the same side…
Do you realise they accepted the word of (ex?) – terrorist Gadaffi that there would be no public homecoming celebration. Can you believe it – such breathtaking naivete??
I take my hat off to MacAskill – at least he said “The decision was mine!” – “I take responsibility for my decision”. Let’s face it – you’d NEVER hear Brown saying that in Parliament or anywhere else
I could murder a Big Mac right now, and you’re it MacAskill.
Genius!
Why don’t we sent Macaskill to Tripoli? He coud take the proclaimers and sing 500 miles to the bomber. I wonder how much compassion the SNP wish to show Labour who left them to make an impossible decision with no guidance. meanwhile Gordon ‘fart in a trance’ Brown has nothing to say, about anything.
The whole affair is disappointing, but hardly surprising. The SNP have proven themselves capable of ineptitude of a very high order. As for the UK government’s response, yet again we have seen nothing which inspires even the slightest degree of confidence in the present administration.
Watching Mandelson trying to run a country is like watching Frank Spencer put up a wardrobe.
Aye. After tearing up the roads to build themselves a comedy train-set to take the folk of Edinburgh to their main escape route at the airport they’ve now got into a contract dispute with the contractor apparently. Never mind that there was already two train routes running within half a mile of the apron anyway. All they needed was a few truckloads of cement blocks et voila Edinburgh International Airport Station.
Now, apparently a new bridge over the Forth is going to cost four billion quid. They must be going to build the fucking thing out of solid gold. The French knock up a bridge 300m high for 250 million quid but it’s going to cost 4 billion quid to build a bridge over the Forth? It would be cheaper to fill in the fucking Forth as far as Kinkardine and they could all walk over the fields to fucking Fife.
Well if the level of fraud stays constant £4bn will hardly cover it.These stupid socialist twats have insisted that its cost plus on all major contracts, as I quote one female nulab MP “the best price isnt necessarily the best value”.This is the margin for social engineering written into major public contracts ie, how many are brown,black, indian no religon,sexual orientation etc
Costs plus is that scam where the contractor makes a defined profit on every pound he spends typically 11% added on,the real effect of this is that to make £1100 the contractor must spend/waste £10,000, under the nasty thatcherite system if the contractor wished to make an extra £1100 they added it to their tender bid and took their chances with being undercut.
But surely enough money has been spent on Edinburgh to date,tell the contractor to put his drawings on micro-file for 20 years hence the next socialist spending orgy.
I think it might be for defence secretary Bob Ainsworth to make the sacrifice and go – in fact it might even be time for him to make the supreme sacrifice.
Hmmm….I wonder how many times he’s escaped death with a noose around his neck in a wardrobe and a satsuma in his mouth?
What? A goat?
No, not a goat; if it’s the supreme sacrifice then surely it will be a chicken ?
As in Chicken Supreme.
I’ll be at ‘ome, supportin’ our Troops as they toil away in ‘Elmand.

What IS going to be grisly is all the journos writing ‘isn’t he dead yet’ articles when we get to the three month predicted date of the Freed One’s demise.
As for those actually going to the Libyan forty years on do… They should be careful not to be seated too near to His Nibs in the inevitable posh tent, because he is supposed to be a horrendous farter… or was it burper…
what’s with the collective amnesia here ?
we know exactly who was supposed to represent the UK at the Libyan oil party
Prince Andrew
he who was as busy visiting little Qadaffi junior as Mandelbum was
The socialists never miss the chance for a great big back-slapping circle jerk, especially if there is some free food and oil contracts in it.
For a while they can fantasise how England might have ended up if Numarxists weren’t going to be voted to oblivion in the next general election. No time left to put that final 5 year plan into action, eh, and free the population from the shackles of capitalism… Ah well, move to Libya or North Korea when you’re jobless, NuLab MPs….it’ll feel just like home…
I look forward to Cameron enacting sanctions on Qadaffi and Libya and cancelling all BP Oil contracts
Please can we all stop being so naive,all British oil companies carry US interests this is just piss and wind to show clear blue water between Obama and what he damn well should know. Megrahi probably agreed to an 8yr spell in jail at the outset to buy his country international redemption,probably not going to die for quite a while yet
Pity he did ten plus then intit?
He must be a pissed off patsy right enough!
cobblers
Perhaps, after 40 years, they can find a more appropriate flag to celebrate the revolution?
A green version of the Saltire perhaps?
They could have got Ponce Andrew to raise the Royal Standard had he not been rumbled as shilling for BP and Gadaffi.
