Evan Davis: IDNSHC
Guido was on the Today programme this morning talking about the formerly anonymous blogger suing Google for revealing her identity (under Court order). Just before we went live Evan Davies started Googling to see what had been written about him on this blog (“ego searching” is the term), Evan found a few references to body piercing. Guido offered him, since he was there, a chance to quell the rumour.
He appeared not to hear, but he did smile…














he still a hoon
Quite!
The best piercing for Davis would be a cranial incision to be used as a conduit for the injection of some fresh grey matter.
The highly-overpaid Al-JaBeeBa ‘Economics Editor’ said nary a word about the UK’s debt problems during the period 2003-2007 when borrowing escalated madly under McDoom!
Fortunately for Guido, Evan must have missed the comments I posted about him a while back here about him being a shite economics correspondent and that Peter Jay was vastly better. Sorry, Evan, but there’s a well known business maxim that states that every employee is promoted to the level of their own incompetence and you are just one such employee.
Bugger.
But your incompetence, like so many of your ZaNuLieBor predecessors, Ainsworth, knows no bounds, so you could get even closer to the top of the slippery pole.
Down, Lady Mandlebum, down!
In the sci-fi classic Dark Star there is a scene where one of the astronauts confesses that he is was just a maintenance bod, and right before take off the real astronaut panicked and the janitor was involved in a mistaken identity and ended up replacing the professionally trained astronaut.
Whenever I see Ainsworth I think of that scene.
You think Ainsworth has the skill to be a caretaker?
We all love you Evan!
duke of york cancels libeeya trip
wow!
God almighty! Don’t tell me they have a golf course out there.
Er, you don’t speak for everyone here, BC – quite obviously not judging by the majority of comments on here.
You are getting creepy.
Not very nice! And it was a wink actually, not a smile….
nice ring
Why thank you
is gordon being inconsistant, he has opinions published about susan boyle, ashes win…..
but
a) lockerbie bomber release …. nothing
b) lastest war dead…. nothing
c) when glasgow will get an election for its new MP…. nothing….
welcome back guido hope you refreshed
One wonders which body piercing sent Davies so cross-eyed……
I am told it was the Albert
Not The Peston Ball Rings
An Uncle Albert?
Evan, give us a ring and we’ll talk about it.
I saw Evan at Leicester Square tube, off for a night on the town dressed in his civvies – tight jeans and a metal chain swinging over his rear. A few years ago now.
He looked very pleased with himself.
Must say I enjoy his broadcasting. Much prefer his delivery of economic analysis to Robert Peston’s sink draining impression. Peston’s stock has fallen since the
return of the formidable Stephanie Flanders from maternity leave hasn’t it?
Once Zanulabour is out of office Peston will lose his contacts and will be shunted off to local radio in the shetlands.
Crikey. What have Shetlanders done to deserve that?
I once saw Mr Davis on a Circle Line tube train and he was wearing extremely pointed shoes.
Peston looks like he has been sleeping rough of late and Flanders has no eyes.
Put them all together and you have Gordon Brown’s current description.
is he a man’s man?
“Good with colours…” “walks with a squeak…” It may be so
Leicester Square tube is the nearest to Soho, isn’t it?
I thought Stephanie was a bloke.
Smilie, agree with you that Evan’s broadcasting is preferable to the drudge Peston. He’s also superior to the liebor luvvie Humphries or the cultured Naughty.
Glad to hear you intended to continue holding all the political classes to account without pulling your punches i.e. being rude about them.
Just leave it to me.
Pravda Toady is the mouthpiece of the anti democratic liberal nazi’s.
Sorry Guido, it is the enemies broadcaster of choice & I dont listen to it anymore.
Me neither. I find that Humphries person particularly objectionable for his anti-English views and his invariable slag-off of everything English every St. George’s day. Yet another BBC Commie bastard.
Indeed.
BBC Pravda has to go.
Antiques Roadshow is good
I d give Fiona Bruce an old master
She is an old master. I get the feeling that there’s more than just a split sausage in her pants.
Whois evan davies? Today must be scrapping the barrel and its not as if there isn’t any news at the moment either. FFS.
It’s a pretty “slow” news day to-day apparently
I always thought Evan Davies was a lightweight political spoof creation by Paul Whitehouse; he certainly doesn’t warrant taking too seriously.
Lets see if he can grasp the important issues rather than spoon fed Labour spin during the run up to the election.
Evan Davis looks a bit like that meerkat……………….
The Kalahari one or the eastern euoropean one?
BTW, If a meercat wants to be top bitch of the pack, she eats her rivals’ new born litter.
Black eyes, big ears and square forehead……… is this a Kalahari?
http://news.bbc.co.uk/olmedia/290000/images/_293990_evan150.jpg
Or is it the Eastern European one that has piercings?
Bloody hell! separated at birth!
It’s true – Aleksandr Orlov and Davis must be one and the same!
I must say it’s quite refreshing to hear politicos being interviewed by a numerate economist instead of an opera buff or a Welsh windbag.
I preferred him when he was in Eastenders.
Should that be opera bouffe?
O/T but a real nice spoof letter back to McFuckwit from the English cricket team posted as a comment in the mail
Hat tip Mou Ning, China (very subtle)
Dear Gordon,
Thank you for your congratulations which I accept on behalf of the boys. Our success was due to real team work and effort and our motivation was driven by a determination to fulfil our supporters’ desires and expectations. I thank you for your individual remarks of me :- ” leading England from the front with patience, resolution and courage”
You may like to try that yourself sometime. It brought me success..who knows? you may manage to get your team in some sort of order AND even win back the odd supporter. ( Personally, I doubt it..but the alternative is oblivion.)
Yours, VERY sincerely,
Andrew
PS. please forward another address for the celebration party on winning the Ashes…I fear you may have moved by then.

has gordon turned up yet ?
Doubtful, he’s only good for downturns.
Cowardly git that he is.
I really hope he gets a savaging when he crawls out from the rock he’s bunkered under.
+++++++++++++Breaking++++++++++++++++
BBC announces that GB will be giving joint press conference with Israeli PM when talks end
Brown is pretty relaxed about Libyan Release and will respond to questions IF they are asked !!!!!!!! Apparently nobody has asked him for his personal opinion yet it seems. So there you are once again its the media’s fault for NOt asking him.
will he dare let the journalists ask Netanyahu questions about compassion for terrorists, or is it oil for bombers?
Will the Israelis just walk out?
BBC saying that the press conference will take place “Very Shortly”
Could be an interesting one…
Could it be that Gordon has had a make-over, been to a health farm, had plastic surgery (maybe a face lift), remember the last time he disappeared, back with resurfaced nashers and slimmed down a little, i wonder who will be paying for it, it’s not cheap private health care.
Private Health Care is vastly less expensive than waiting for a bureaucrat to hand out a ration of treatment.
Iv’e said before,
he’s re-training to be Mandelslimes
‘head’ gardener.
Maybe had a spine inserted.
I don’t know why everyone’s wondering where Gordon’s got to…
We were told last week that Mandleson went into hospital because his prostate was being operated on; Mandleson went in to visit him.
The wonder of private health care. Arrange your appointment on a day you don’t want to be around to answer questions.
this chap for the no 11 downing street ? http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/politics/article6807146.ece
It’s a matter of breeding, ZanuLabour seem to confuse wealth with class
dont you mean wealth and debt ?
And he’s had Kevan Jones for breakfast. After a career spent cobbling together the few manky bits and pieces the MoD manages to supply our troops the good General will have learnt a thing or two about economy.
Would love to see him stand as an independant in the election, the only question being whether it’s best to go against Jones or Ainsworthless?
Or Broon?
Difficult to have a good chat in three minutes flat but Mr Fawkes straight and direct, the other bloke sounded as if he was in Madagascar.
Where did my “pip” go. Always a bit rushed lately approaching 9, makes me go all “Horatio”.
Gutbuster and Scarecrow
I’ve heared it rumoured that Davis is tatted to fuckery under the whistle. As befits a Tatlockian.
There were nought of that sort of talk in’t Rovers snug in my day
are we still in silly season ?
Yes – the “Silly Season” doesn’t end until after the Bank Holiday weekend i.e. 1st September and then re-commences on December 21st and ends again 5th January. Consult your diary – it should be in there
Is that like the hunting season and we can therefore shoot anything defined as silly? In which case, I suggest Gordon Brown is silly and I am therefore borrowing a 12 bore to hunt the useless fecker down.
Sorry not allowed he’s been declared a “protected species” by the WWF. Apparently he’s unique(Thank God for that say I)
Indeed we must be
Otherwise why did Guido lower himself to be interviewed by the BBC before 9am
I wouldn’t get up before 9am for less than £5 million, especially the BBC
Picture the Bbc on election night , doubt there will be as much of champayne around this time
Not so sure – Cameron is “their sorta guy” particularly if/when he becomes PM.
Follow the power has always been the BBC’s Motto for survival
Just like the Labour Party the BBC has no plans ready for an election day or night, the swingonometer has been consigned to the cellar at Broadcasting house.
Quite liked the way Davis chopped off the loathsome Denis Macshane this morning on Today, thus enabling John Redwood to have the last laugh on our EU contributions. Redwood referred to Macshane as being in his “anecdotage” – wish I could get lines like that out at 7.30 AM! I expect Macshane is still spitting feathers even now!
theres sure to be some shit in the gaurdian round about miday then
I always shit in the Guardian around midday.
I’ll bet that leaves a nasty taste then?
Indeed – are the Beeb finally getting the message about political bias or am I just reading too much into some poor timekeeping?
They won’t budge, Steve. The BBC needs government to give it what it wants, in return for pro-labour reporting.
It may be that they can see the writing on the wall and are softening their position a bit, to reduce the risk of Dave taking revenge via the licence fee/selection of governors.
McShane is a poisonous snake in the grass. Who else would defend the EU at that time in the morning.
By coincidence, the good folks at biased-bbc ran a piece on Davis this morning, they feel he is unlikely to trouble the admittance adjudicators at Mensa anytime soon.
“Get Evan Davies Off Drugs !
The subject, that is. Susan and I listened with mounting incredulity as Evan Davies of the Today programme came out with these gems while interviewing an anaesthetist on the subject of the abuse of prescription drugs and painkillers :
“Do you – (pause) – if you were – (pause) – if you had a – (pause) – teenage – (pause) – son, and you were trying to advise this – (pause) – person what sort of drugs to take and what sort of drugs to avoid – are the illegal drugs safer ? – less safe ? than the painkiller type ?”
Followed later by :
“And among your colleagues, and even your friends, do they abuse the drugs that are commonplace in your profession ?”
I was wondering that myself. It seemed as if Mr Davis was trying to get a few leads.
Working for that scabby outfit would drive anyone to drugs. It must be like walking on eggshells trying never to say anything that might offend a ‘minority’.
well if he hooks up with gideon’s dealer he will be able to try all types of drugs and decide which ones he likes best.
but whatever you do evan, go easy on the superskunk mofo.
is there a prize for coming 50 th ?
Or even 51st ? You must be a “newbie” otherwise you’d realise that Guido’s number sequencing is “shite” !
long time reader , new to comment
Fair enough. But Guido’s sequencing goes out of “sync” quite regularly as does the”timing sync” i.e. a post made at say 10.04am will be posted next to a post made at say 9.24pm the previous day even though the post bears absolutely no relation to the earlier post. His moderating software also seems quite “idiosyncratic” as well allowing “obscenities/profanities” to be posted but often innocuous phrases to be moderated. But that’s why we love him !!!
“But that’s why we love him !!!”
Speak for yourself!
i think love is a tad over the top
I never get modded.
I am top boy.
The only way to smoke Brown out is to give Susan Boyle a dose of the shits
Brown won’t be able to contain himself in offering expressing his concern and giving the nations support
No doubt Evan Davis will be glued, goggle-eyed, to this blog for at least as long as this thread lasts. Not often I get the chance to address a BBC presenter, so here goes.
I could not give a fig about your alledged body piercings. It’s your body, you can do with it what you will, within reason.
I could – and do – give a fig about Britain and it’s economic woes. Please be aware that many of us with busy lives are trying to make our contribution to the economy by paying our taxes, and believe me it’s tough at the moment. Many of us do not suck on the teat of public money, as do the BBC via. the license fee; we have to supply it via. our taxes, and we want the public service broadcaster – the BBC – to be straightforward and unbiased in their reporting and analysis of the news, including the economy.
You know – and we know – and you know that we know – that the public finances are in an almighty mess. However, you continue to give an easy ride to government ministers and spokesmen, and attempt to crucify opposition shadow ministers and spokesmen. (In fairness, you aren’t the worst offender.) Yes, it’s subtle (sometimes) but it isn’t unbiased. Remember your responsibilities under the BBC Charter, and remember that you are not – repeat, not – supposed to be an extension of the government spin machine.
Take a leaf from Ed Stourton’s book. He is about as unbiased as BBC presenters come. (No doubt that was why the BBC tried to sack him.) Eddie Mair is pretty good as well. However, why on earth the BBC allow the naked bias of the likes of Naughtie, Paxman, various Dimblebys et. al. is beyond me. They do a disservice to the British public in allowing their political leanings to colour their journalism. We expect better.
To make something clear, I have no political axe to grind. I am not, and have never been, a member of any political party, and my politics are fairly centrist. (I find many of the comments on this blog rather extreme for my taste, but it’s a free country, people can express their views as they see fit here.) However, I find that these days, I can’t always take BBC output at face value without checking against other sources of information, and I’m concerned about that.
Me too. Very frightening. Needs a shake-up.
scrap the bbc , if people want to watch it then they can pay for it
We already do. Or at last some of us do.
Well said Engineer – I think the BBC are shit-scared of a change of government, they know that “Mr 10%” will take a knife to their budgets as much as the rest of the public sector.
It’s now too late for them to be Liebour chearleaders, the best thing they can do is go back to being the impartial and authoratitive source of political news, as much as other subjects that they are rightly famous for around the world.
The labour lot may as well stand as labour candidates. There’s not much else out there for them. Incredible how many labour MP’ s are ex BBC
It is beyond redemption.
The secret loans from the ECB should tell you all you need to know about their treasonous political allegiances.
It is the enemies broadcaster of choice & must be completely dismantled.
Totally agree, Fred. Successive governments have shown this evil organisation (yes, EVIL) has morphed into a monster that simply cannot be reformed. All attempts over many decades to correct its blatant bias and the poisonous messages it puts out have singularly failed. It should be scrapped, broken up, and its entrails incinerated.
Only after a silver bullet through the “heart”
Well said Engineer! The interventions of Noughtie, and the Dimblebys in particular are very obvious when opposition spokesmen are interviewed but Government spokesmen are able to spout their narrative at length.
Nicely put Eng. Let’s hope Evan prints it and staples it to the senior management’s foreheads.
With silver bullets
Sorry, Engineer, but you might as well piss into a force 10 gale for all the good your appeal will do. Let’s just axe this monstrosity altogether. It’s become an affront to human dignity.
You’ll miss the BBC when it’s gone. Bit like the programme last night on tv about the demolition of houses in Bath in the ’60s and ’70s, people only realised how precious they were when they were gone.
Agreed BC, the BBC news is world class, it’s somewhere that people all over the world turn when there is a breaking story.
A lot of the “Entertainment” stuff like the pointless talent shows are all bollocks and could be dropped to the commercial sector, but a large core of their output is of a very high quality.
It’s just such a shame that their UK politics coverage can be biased.
To those advotcating scrapping of the BBC, look at the US “News” channels to see just how badly others do it
Yep, I’ll sure people will miss the “threats for entertainment” model that funds AljaBeebya.
The BBC is handy for a quick look at what’s bothering the left.
I haven’t watched any of their drivel for years! I don’t miss it one bit. The only way I know the monster remains unreformed is when someone posts a link to one of their crappy articles and I inadvertantly follow it, or their RSS shit-feed mysterious installs itself on my browser toolbar uninvited and I’m forced to remove it. The BBC must be scrapped as a matter of urgency because aside from anything else, it glamourises crime, celebrates dissolute behaviour and encourages drug abuse. It has contributed enormously to the breakdown of family values in the nation as well. Fucking Trotskyite bastards.
No Steve, the BBC USED to be world class. It used to be the epitome of world broadcasting. Now, they are no longer imparshal, as the powers that be have allowed this once great organisation to be dictated to by government, and it is no better than the gutter press.
If the Directors had any balls, they would report the news as it is, and not as Gordon would like it to be. What’s the point of that? Complete waste of time. I want to be told what’s really happening, and not what some jumped up civil servant would like me to believe.
Contessa – I will not miss the BBC. I haven’t watched it in months. Nothing it broadcasts interests me in the slightest, and the so-called news reports interest me even less, which is why I’ve switched to another channel.
The BBC is a has been.
This is bang on the money, well said; trust of a free press and the content of their output, TV, Radio and in print is important, for the first time in my life I truely have a doubt in what is being broadcast and printed. I would say the quality of presentation and content at the BBC and Sky has declined, standards must be improved ahead of an election
Agree about Mair & Posh Ed Stourton being pretty fair really, Engineer.
Humpty & Numpty are a pair of ZaNuLiebor cocksuckers like ToeNails and, like him, incompetent to boot.
Although his incompetence as Economics editor has been manifest until recently, at least Davies has started, albeit belatedly, to question the ‘government’s spin and slime. Ke told Mandlebum he couldn’t let him get away with one of his more outrageous slurs when Mandlebum was Acting Queen a fortnight ago.
I think you’re a bit unfair on Humphreys-remember that Blair’s creature,Alistair Campbell thought him”a problem.”Naughtie,on the other hand,is simply unbelievable.
Mandelson doesn’t act the part of queen .
These people, Dimbleby, Naughtie, Paxman, Wark, etc, have just got too big for their boots. I couldn’t damn the whole BBC because they step out of line, and still, quite frankly live in the past. Gavin Estler is moving in that direction too. Martha Kearney is too soft and sweety sweety, the ubiquitous Stephen Fry drives me crackers with his Mr. Kipling voice. The BBC tend to light on somebody ‘safe’ and then flog them to death. Ross, toenails, peston, etc. There must be a huge pool of talent out there that we never here about.
Sorry, hear.
Well said, indeed. I think the BBC really does try to be ‘balanced’, indeed puts more effort into it than any other purveyor of news and comments. It probably sincerely believes that it is unbiassed. As long, however, as the BBC only recruits and promotes people with a certain, narrow point of view it will remain about as unbiassed as Fox News, though more intelligent.
The BBC is further to the left than Fox is to the right.
As for intelligent? AlJaBeebya still believe the most murderous force of the 20th C is a good thing.
the BBC news is world class, it’s somewhere that people all over the world turn when there is a breaking story (133)
yeah and they pretty quickly turn it off again.
Breaking propaganda more like. Except during the war…….it was to our benefit
Good interview Guido, and welcome back from your well-earned holidays!
Keep up the muck-raking, as you described it!
talking of al- beeba .did anyone see the 10pm news last night?
the propaganda machine was in full flow-spew edwards almost ranting about the CIA…….went on for ages ………
on itv they mentioned it for about 30 seconds………..
stop the bbc funding now!
Seconded
3rd-ed

It’s what the BBC does – you Silly Boy – they are institutionally anti-American – they have been since “Vietnam” – half the “senior people” were students in 1968 – 1978 and look back on the “Grosvenor Square Riots and those days at Berkley” with a warm happy feelings although addmittedly they had a schizophrenic moment they had with their “Obama Fetish” they’ve now reverted back to type
Lord Reith’s Ghost: it’s a pity they weren’t given the same treatment meted out to the students of Kent State; then we wouldn’t be in the shit condition we are now:

Did you see Kirsty on Newsnight last night? She was quite happy to attack Alex Salmond, then the ?Head of the Libyan business association (can’t remember his name or title), he’s always spot on and gives very intelligent answers re the Lockerbie disaster etc, then let the American Mr.Bolton (Mr. Pastry) right off the hook!
seconded too
fifthded…
Hear! Hear!
Watched Mock the Week instead. . Very funny sketches of Brown with voice over. Worth a watch.
I used to think that the bbc comedy shows were really daring, but following my conversion to the truth I have seen with new clear eyes the extent of what is not allowed to be said and the placemen to ensure’ balance’ eg Jeremy Hardy, Russell Howard, Stephen K Amos, Gina Yasheray etc. They largely make me wince now.
Why didnt you take a magnet with you ?
You could have had him by the balls you thick Huhne

I finished with the BBC when it published the poetry of Osama Bin Laden.
That still sickens me.
I dont want to sound like a loony conspiracy nutter, but there is something rotten and corrupt about the BBC.
It has to go.
Broadcast lies and left wing nonsense “it’s what we do”
Between weather and sport and more sport and more weather we might give you a titchy bit of real news. If you’re lucky. That’s the BBC News
nonymon…we are not alone…beeboid pro-lab bias is now an accepted fact among the msm and oposition MP’s. The only problem is how to deal with the issue, without upsetting the horses. ( Hence the platitudes about them from time to time.)
Sorry O/T but did anyone see that horrific little toad Lord Foulkes last night on Newsnight?
Vile.
Yes, viler than vile.
no was watching fox news , what happened?
He spoke.
Coffee gone! thanks contessa!
That is the little lord who FOI’d General Dannatt, I look forward to the General finding a neat hiding place for his bayonet.

“British” Broadcasting Corporation?
Thats rather like the North Koreans using the word “Democratic” in their title.
Its the pro EU propaganda that really irks me – and we pay for it and go to prison if we refuse to fund their internationalist propaganda.
I have not paid the license fee for 3 years now and never intend to again, inpite of the threatening gestapo letters they keep sending..
Threatening letters is all they ever send in my experience. No fucker ever comes around – nor do they want to for the sake of their own well-being.
As for pro-EU; they’re fucking pro everything but British. They hate the English and Englishness. All they ever blab on about is fucking smelly Africa, Africa, Africa – like we really give a shit about that stinking cess-pool of corruption! Fuck the BBC and their Afro-centric agenda to hell and back.
Had the buggers round here the other Sunday – despite the fact that I was watching telly at the time (so couldn’t be arsed answering the door to unexpected visitors), they poker round the back of the house to try to see in and then pissed off.
I can only conclude that their much vaunted equipment can’t pick up any emissions from my 37″ flatscreen.
Since they have no right of entry, good luck to them if they try to collect their TV poll tax from me! And if they take me to court, I shall insist that they prove, without access to my residence, that I have a TV.
140. Tip of the Day: I embedded my flatscreen into the front of an old 52″ microwave oven and I’ve got a screensaver of a Haddock Pie ready meal spinning round.
You are perfectly entitled to have a TV and do not need a license for it if you only watch DVDs, Videos or use it for gaming.
The BBC Gestapo has to prove that you have a TV and are watching broadcast programmes on it.
Bit difficult really because as soon as you go to the door to answer the knock of the spy, you are manifestly obviously not watching TV.
Trespassing to peer through people’s windows is an offence.
Writing threatening letters to households with no license constitutes blackmail. I reported the BBC to the police for this and I urge others to do likewise.
(They didn’t do anything of course).
Moley, I write threatening letters back telling them that visits constitute “aggravated trespass”, and invoice them for your time in writing the letter.
If Crapita can make money out of it, so should we.
I won’t have anything said against Afrika Bambaataa on this blog.

The downside is that if you are as handsome as myself the poof would probably get a sick thrill from having his nipples and balls ripped off.
So far better that some ugly twat does it.
lol, just make sure you’re not wearing a watch, and don’t put it in the same pocket as your phone!
Warning – if the body piercings are made from an austenitic grade of stainless steel (and I believe many surgical items are), the magnet won’t work. Austenic stainless steels are non-magnetic. If it’s in a ferritic grade, you’re on to something.
Don’t say you never learn anything on this blog.
Bloody engineers!
You’re right of course, stainless steel pirecings won’t work.
Titanium ones would though
No they wouldnt.
Yes, I do have personal experience.
Just point a magnetron at him and watch him squirm then ;o)
What an amazing site! I note they’re selling all sorts of super-exotic stuff (including even a DIY “death ray”!)
Yes Guido, I heard the interview this am on Radio4. You have a surprisingly quiet voice with a Londonish accent, thought it would be deep, with an Irish twang. You were very guarded in your answers, and so was – Evan? (thought it was Ed Stourton)! Evan is quite a good interviewer now, but the good old days with the forensic J.Humphreys, I’m afraid are gone. Why shouldn’t Evan have pointy shoes or ear piercings? It’s not a crime….new labour would stop him if they could! Evan sounded as if he was walking on eggs!
Why would Guido have an Irish accent? He was born and brought up in London.
Ah, to be sure, to be sure. Plastic paddy. That’s him.
‘forensic J. Humphreys’!
The only forensic examination he is capable of is the ToeNails habit of examining BLiar/Brown’s asshole from the inside!
Having lent ToeNails a torch, I understandably declined his offer to return it
I know that Guido is reputed to be a rat-arsed Fenian get 24 hours a day but even he couldn’t have been so pissed early this morning as to confuse Meerkat Davies with Posh Ed! Could he?
Well thassarumun! I have the Today prog on between 6 and 8, after which I go over to over to BBC News on TV as I attempt to ‘get up’… Too much! Too much information!… but I didn’t hear Guido! Damn! Was Guido on later? Was I more than usually hung over? Very much agree with Steve Expat at (60)
OOOOoooo How I love to read what Engineer writes (58)… He is so earnest…
Don’t worry about Evan Davies and his Prince Albert… I seem to remember it and him all over one of the heavier Sunday supps YEARS ago… Evan is working his way to being a national treasure, (he’ll be the new Stephen Fry 20yrs down the road) and he is a nice voice to wake up to in the mornings.
Stourton unbiased, Engineer? He is full of religiosity… very damning in my book… (Yes I know Guido’s catholic) and he ‘swallows his words’ so he is hard to hear… but I grant you that he seems politically even handed, and a certainly good journo, and it really annoyed me when the BBC tried to dump him.
I’m not Ernest, I’m Engineer!
If Davies is going to be the new Stephen Fry (a “national treasure”) someway down the line from now, we’d better put a bullet in his head right now.
did Davis steal a credit card too, perpetrate fraud and get banged up? Or just the latter?
Seconded, Thirded and Fourthed
Remember that particular national treasure voiced his comely support for mps and his opprorium at the meaness of electorate at being offended at the extravagance of the fuckers. He’s been pretty quiet on the subject since then – the old lizard.
Bandersnatch, folllow the link at the top of the page to the Today Prog and you can hear it there, link at the bottom of the page as it was the last story covered.
One thing the BBC deserve some credit for is making as much of their output as possible available onilne, it’s not perfect but it’s way better than anyone else right now.

That anodyne chit-chat, preceded by somebody sounding like Alan Partidge on a choppy mike, wasn’t worth broadcasting in the first place.
If that’s typical of BBC radio’s news flagship’s output, make them ladle it out on Long Wave alone, not clutter FM and digital, let alone the Net, with it.
Yes Guido, heard your interview with ?Evan D this am on radio4 (thought it was Ed Stourton). You have a quiet Londonish accent, I thought it would be a soft Irish drawl. You both sounded very guarded in your comments, and you certainly didn’t give anything away! Don’t care a fig if Evan wears pointy shoes or has body piercings, he makes quite a good fierceless interviewer, but the days of J Humphreys and his forensic interviews are sadly over.
Sorry, appear to have repeated myself! V pleased that Ed Stourton was taken back into the today prog fold.
come over here Mrs and I’ll show you my soft Irish drawl.
John Humphreys was, and is, a cunt of the first order.
is there any impartial people at the bbc

As far as I am aware it originated from the once trendy Popbitch site. It also adds to my belief that the various C&P trolls around here are an invention of one person not entirely unconnected with this site.

So what’s that then – 8 episodes a series per year, £142.50 for the telly tax, that’s about £18/episode.
It’s cheaper to cancel your telly tax and buy the £14 DVD.
For me since the Ross/ Brand debarkle the Today programme (and BBC as a whole) has dumbed down and rather then grill politicians they talk to them like old mates! For me Nick Ferrari and Jon Gaunt knock them into a cocked hat!!

Well done fawkes , hinted a bit of stasi to me , should people who post offensive material be exposed and sued ???
but then again we are back at the freedom of speech debate .
While ever the little person can tell the powerfull bully to F off we will have democracy.
what they are trying to make the case for is while ever the polite fraudster is smarming his way through life do we have the right to use offensive language or argument to spoil there dinner party ??.
these people are elected and if they dont fear what the voters think they will abuse power .
I can treat any politician who is honest and isnt fiddling with respect , some are very learned men and women , but when you get bluffers and decievers that enforce state fear whilst busily lining there own wealth for a wonk idelogical theory imposed by stealth , they should be grate full that all we have are words !!
They carry on with this farce and words will come to an end
its the goverments tatic , like the dan hannan nhs stuff , say something they dont agree with and you are a traiter

But sodomy doesn’t upset the record / film company parasites, as most of them are at it already.

If you make anything available in digital form, and it escapes from your control (e.g. by you selling a copy of it at extortionate prices), then the laws of the market inevitably lead to other people distributing it, especially if the costs involved in doing so are effectively zero.
Whether imposing draconian punishments on non-commercial copyright infringement is justified is a matter of legitimate debate – I fully support the punishment of copyright infringement for personal gain, but see any punishment of non-commercial infringement as a step too far towards corporatism.
Mandlebum obviously differs – but then he is inclined to legislate for favours, and his stance should surprise nobody who has seen the actions of the venal, self-aggrandising queen over the past 12 years.
I’m a great believer in Geonomics (Property Value Taxes), as was Adam Smith.
If they want property defended by the state (i.e. the right to exclude) then they should say what it’s worth and be taxed on that.
Nice idea AC1 – we’d soon see the inflated estimates of ‘billions of pounds in damage to the economy’ disappear under such a regime.
The real problem, though, is the ability of corporations to hold copyright at all – copyright should only apply to the individuals who create a work (and by that I mean the author / screenwriter / musician or whoever), and that copyright should be strictly limited in term and non-transferable. Corporations who bid for the right to distribute a copyrighted work would be able to fund individual cases brought by the copyright holder, but would be unable to hold the rights themselves. A proof of gain by the copyright infringer would also be required – sharing a song with your mates isn’t sufficiently bad in its wider implications to require sanction, in my opinion.
Bent NuLiebour bastards selling legislation, on the other hand, is sufficiently serious to warrant piano wire suspension therapy.

There are perhaps five films which I have felt are worth re-watching and thus justify my hard cash purchase of them.

i say the one thing that fucked gordon up more the everything else was the 10 p tax change , if he hadnt done that i think the polls would be closer even with mcbide who was sick pisshead , but that one mistake ruined browns relationship with the labour party and more widely the british people
“LA coroner to treat Michael Jackson’s death as a homicide.”
Police are looking for an eight-year-old boy with an interest in pharmacology.
So gordon has snuck back into no.10 today to meet Mr Netanyahu.
Then apparently he’s going back to Scotland to polish off his plans for the Autumn. No.10 is leaking that gordon is going to start talking about cuts and about abandoning some projects (ID Cards?) because he thinks that this will win him a fourth term.
Poor deluded soul.
he can say whatever he wants , no one is listening
gordon is going to start talking about cuts and about abandoning some projects (ID Cards?). That would be the New Labour project Gordon is going to abandon then, and it only took 12 years for it to sink in.
Brown’s compasionate cuts…
one ‘n’ is missing.
Well I haven’t got it.
Brown’s an incompassionate cunt, surely?
£200 miliion already gone on Id cards , in case anyone rushes to believe the bullshit .
Little john done nice comment in the mail

Abandoning the War in Afghanistan would save a few billion for a start as would ditching Trident(which is pointless pice of kit anyway – cos’ a) Its the weapon of last resort b) The Yanks wouldn’t like it if we used it without asking their permission c) They would have launched – first(probably at us if Gordon is still in power)
Looking at BBC News, it seems all Mr Netanyahu’s bodyguards are packing some serious firepower. Can’t just one of them have an ‘accidental’ discharge and get rid of Brown for us?
Would certainly give me a very Happy Ramadan.
An “Accidental discharge” is how he came to be in the first place.
It was a dark day for us all when the Rev. Mr Brown said to his wife “I’m feeling a wee bit frisky the noo, Morag. Let’s have an airly nicht.”
And an ‘accidental discharge’ could take him away, time to review the troops Mr Brown or as they affectionately refer to you……. Cyclops.
Strongly suspect that Brown was the result of meticulous planning and (probably) rather clinical execution of the deed. Hard to imagine Brown being the result of a “lunchtime quickie”, or as it is known in engineering circles, a “grub screw”.
Or, as his father would refer to it, “an immoral cum puss”.
He comes from a presbyterian family, they don’t do things like that.

The Israeli’s on close support overseas are said to carry hollow tip ammo as well for knocking you down in one.

Wouldn’t like to meet one of his bodyguards on a dark night! Their mouths were so turned down at the corners that they met their jaw bones coming up.
Oh please is NetanYAHOO gay too ?
He has a wife, as does the gorgon.
I thought that’s what Cameron was going to do. Gordon is a copycat as well as a miserable coward. Who are these people who vote labour. Are they real?
Guido your phrase “ego searching” has me intrigued.
Surely no-one that gets talked about on here, like gordon or bob aintbustinagut or TWatson come on here “ego searching” – do they?
Seems to me that there is nothing they would hear on here about themselves that would bolster their already over mighty egos.

We have the very worst situation with Brown, an unelected dictator who shits his pants as soon as anything goes down, it’s like the plot of some Norman Wisdom Stanley Unwin drama
Our “Inglorious Leader”is issuing statements (via the AP and some assembled selected hacks and hackettes ) it appears for his “waiting citizenry” so they are made aware of Brown’s “Anger and Repulsion”(weird word surely he meant “revulsion? )Definitely NO live Press Conference only selected highlights showing Brown being tough on the Israelis over the West Bank Settlements.
No comment regarding whether the Scottish decision was right or not THAT is not for him to comment on(apparently nor is the US reaction )- over to you Alex in Edinburgh
Well spotted, the press conference was indeed not carried live – Rather unnusual,
I wonder how many times Jonah was asked about the Lockerbie bomber, and how close he got to throwing a Nokia at the assembled media?
Brown is such a coward. He so wanted to be PM, yet doesn’t do live press conferences. I thought that went with the job.
What a weird, nasty little man he is.
“…..it’s like the plot of some Norman Wisdom Stanley Unwin drama,”
Still no laughs then.
Ok,
We will stop building on the occupied territories “Prime Minister” Brown,
once you get your State Broadcaster & Chief Propaganda Arm the BBC to publish the Balen Report.
The building of those houses does give employment to lots of palestinians so its really doing both sides a favour isnt it? Moishe gets his house built and Mohamed gets regular wages, its a win win situation.
Perhaps the UK can send over a few brickies to move things along a bit.
And cutting down olive trees – employment generating too? How about employment opportunities for Palestinians in the human organ donation business? Bit fucked long term without kidneys, s’pose, but still, just a bit of fun eh?
Take your Swedish proto-naziism some-place else.
The subject of Netanjahoo and Israel is one I can’t bring myself to talk about I feel too strongly about it! Except to say, up with the Palestinians!
Sky via AFP:
Brown “angry and repulsed” by Libyan welcome.
Did they mean Angry and Repulsive?
It’s taken a week to come up with this phrase, well done the back room boys in number 10, well done.
‘angry and repulsed’ – sounds like Britain’s next, scaled down nuclear deterrent submarine class.
how about HMS Busted and Bent to reflect Britain’s economic and political status?

The discussion with Dr Vince Miller referred to ‘the illusion of anonymity on the internet’ and I found it a bit strange to say the least. If you work at it enough it can be made pretty hard for someone or organisation to track you. You have to be a bit techno in understanding the basics of packet technology, message formats, proxyservers, web tunnelling etc. But it is possible to set up complete false identities and anonymous e-mail accounts that will allow you to set up a third party blog. I am rather suprised that the Doctor chose not mention this. An illustration if this was when the government went potty over King Roy’s plans to set up a server network on the principality of Sealand (Knock John Fort) a few years ago.
It’s a bit slow, but
http://www.torproject.org/
will do the job.
The government will never sucessfully legislate against technology like Tor, Encrypted P2P, VPN connections etc for two simple reasons -
1. The technology is moving way faster than legislation ever can, and
2. There are lots of really brainy geeks living in countries where freedom of speech is non-existant and governments persecute and torture people for their online activities.
First there was Napster, then that was shut down. Then there was Gnutella, then that was shut down. Then there was The Pirate Bay, which is about to be shut down, and allofmp3, which was shut down. Now there are darknets and encrypted P2P, it’s a big game with the governments and media companies against the other 3 billion of us on the web…

I’m afraid that everytime i see his unwired deformed jaw bobbing mug, spouting “World Player” moral lectures,my blood pressure rises and i have to take a walk in the garden to calm down. Why can’t he see he’s possibly the most hated man in Britain.
Why can’t he see he’s possibly the most hated man in Britain.
Possibly? What the fuck is wrong with you? Possibly?
Who could be more hated? Ian Brady? Ian Brady gets valentine cards.
Gordon Brown is not only indisputably the worst prime minister ever, he may even be the worst Briton even – in fact, I’m wagering he may be the worst human ever born. More people rate Hitler than Gordon Brown. There are Japanese soldiers still fighting WW2 on remote pacific islands who can boast a wider circle of friends – and who may get a better share of the vote. I have shat things with more character than that “man”.
“Possibly”…. How much did Mandy pay you to spin that?

second that number 246, (I am not a number I am a free man), not in this country your’re not!

couldn’t agree more mate.
He can, I’ve just watched him on tv. He’s had a lot elocution and facial movement training. Instead of his jaw dropping between sentences he’s been taught to clamp this lips together after each pronouncement. Watch him (if you can bear it), and you’ll see how obvious this new facial movement is.
Was it actually a live, open press conference? If so I missed it and there are no highlights* on BBC or Sky. All I saw was Brown and Netanyahu shaking hands outside No.10.
Incidentally, good old Israel know how to deal with terrorist scum – the only chance they have of going home is in a prisoner exchange. Usually at an exchange rate of 100:1. God knows what they make of the pathetic coward Brown.
*I use ‘highlights’ as only the very broadest generic sense if it has anything to do with the Scotch twat.
Clip at http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/8219960.stm
Definitely wasn’t live, the ‘full’ version was some 20 minutes later than it happened and looked like all the difficult questions were edited out (probably from both sides, the Israelies are just as paranoid)
More and more like communist Russia or China every day…
So it appears Brown refused permission for a “live feed” – or even a 3 minute delay to enable obscenities to be bleeped out ?. AND as the BBCs delightful Political Correspondent and Robinson stand in(Don’t hurry back Nick ) Laura Kuensberg said “Thats it ! The matter is dealt with. Downing Street aka Brown will not be making anymore comments for the Briitish Press nor the Yankee Media either. So unless someone somewhere has the “smoking gun” which is always a possibility the yanks and us will have to live with it !!!
Good ol’ BBC. Always there to report the news as it is………….NOT!
The other way Israel dealt with terrorist scum in the past was to make them Prime Minister, but only if the terrorism in question was against British troops.
We should never forget that Israel was founded on terror against our own people, even if we do have to deal with their evil apartheid state.
‘good old Israel’ – the same as the one whose ‘founders’ murdered British troops in Palestine and performed terrorist acts including the blowing up of the King David Hotel or the attempted sinking of the USS Liberty, in order to have the United States fight a war with Egypt. Must be two of the fuckers.
We have reached a deal with Gordon Brown to get Britains builders back to work.
They are coming back with us to start work on some new houses in Jerusalem.
We have agreed to allow Brown to fake outrage when this becomes known, just as he is doing now about the Lockerbie mass murderer he bargained away in exchange for Scottish citizens getting good oil jobs in Libya.
Oh, & he let me have a copy of the Balen Report to sweeten the deal – no wonder the BBC spent hundreds of thousands of taxpayers money suppressing it – the anti Jew bastards.
Below is a classic comment by an Israeli spokesman hours before Brown’s meeting with Netanhayu:
Following Mr Brown’s plea to Libyan leader Colonel Gaddafi to ‘act with sensitivity’ when the bomber returned home, Israeli foreign-ministry spokesman Yigal Palmor-said: ‘Anyone looking for discretion-and sensitivity or sensibility with Muammar Gaddafi stands a better chance of finding the Loch Ness Monster.’

All hail the dear leader!
Our “Inglorious leader” and part-time Prime Minister has already said he can’t comment on a “Quozsh-eye legal agreement” made by the Scottish Government.

“The princes of Judah have become like those who move a boundary; on them I will pour out My wrath like water.”
As there has never been a palestinian people (it’s an arab invention) are you arguing for an Israel with it’s Zero AD biblical borders?
There wasn’t an Israel in AD Zero, AC1 – there was a Roman province of Palestine. The area ruled by Herod the Great (a misnomer if ever there was one) as a client king at the time was mainly Judea – much smaller than the current state of Israel.
Can’t we just give the Zionists Utah? It’s not as though God or the Bible are reliable sources of information, after all…

Detainee reporting has helped thwart a number of al-Qaeda plots to attack targets in the West and elsewhere. Not only have detainees reported on potential targets and techniques that al-Qaeda operational planners have considered but arrests also have disrupted attack plans in progress,” the report said.
It describes how interrogations of alleged 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed yielded information about al-Qaeda’s attempts to obtain anthrax and crash commercial airplanes into London’s Heathrow Airport. It says that other detainees, when confronted with information learned from Mohammed, revealed more about the plots and members of al-Qaeda.
One of the documents on Mohammed titled “Khalid Sheikh Mohammed: Preeminent Source on al-Qaeda,” noted that he was the most valuable source of information on the terror network. The report notes that the planner of 9/11 was forced to rethink second-wave attacks he envisioned after 9/11 because of increased security efforts in the United States. “KSM stated that he had planned a second wave of hijacking attacks even before September 2001 but shifted his aim from the United States to the United Kingdom because of the United States post-11 September security posture and the British government’s strong support for Washington’s global war on terror,” the report noted.
The CIA report states that Mohammed “dramatically expanded our universe of knowledge on al-Qaeda plots … [and] leads that assisted directly in the capture of other terrorists including Jemaah Islamiyah leader Hambali.”
The report on detainee information says that information learned from interrogations of al-Qaeda operative Abu Zubaydah revealed plots against “targets abroad and in the United States — including the White House and other U.S. symbols.”
Zubaydah was the first senior member of the group to be captured in March of 2002.
The report describes gaining “invaluable insights” into “al-Qaeda’s current organization, the personalities of its key members, and al-Qaeda’s decision-making process. His reporting has contributed to our understanding of the enemy, how al-Qaeda members interact with each other, how they are organized, and what their personal networks are like.”
The report describes how intelligence from detainees revealed al-Qaeda’s inner workings, including its hierarchy and financing. “Detainees have been particularly useful in sorting out the large volumes of documents and computer data seized in raids,” one section said. It later describes how one tip from an interrogation was able to pry open other sources to reveal more information.
Sorry I copied a bit too much there.
What’s the betting there’s another terrorist threat (or two) soon. Labour need people to need them, and what better way than to (allegedly) feign an attack.
They can then tell us how wonderful they are and how they have (allegedly) “found” the houses where b*mbs might be being made. Then we can all feel safe again, thanks to the fast action of our wonderful government.

He added that he is thankful to whoever had written this tune which he had never heard before and naming it after his wife was a tribute indeed.

Maybe he likes South African coocking ! he’s definitely going to find Meat And Two Veg There ! Frank Bruno Looks More like a woman that that !
With all due respect to Guido, wouldn’t the time on the Today programme have been better spent trying to get to the bottom of who exactly was found up Mandelson’s arse? Marr? Webb (Just in)?
A thorough examination was made. It was quite an affair.
“Evan found a few references to body piercing.”

GUIDO Ive Spotted The Link Between The Two Blogs Evan Davies And Peter Jones Both Appear On Dragons Den! Do I Win A prize ? Oh And Evan Davies Looks Like A meerkat

Some of my closest friends are gay men and have intimate body piercings. It does not stop them being really nice people. However their body jewellery can easily cause damage to expensive black satin sheets, and chafe the skin on occasions.
