+++ Baroness Scotland Reported to Bar Standards Board +++
Bookies William Hill are offering odds of 9/4 that the Attorney General, Baroness Scotland, will resign or be sacked before the end of this year.
The headlines don’t look very good for her.

Good… who by?
Before the end of the year???? They are fleecing the public just as surely as the hoons!!!
9/4 seems pretty good considering there are 102 days until the end of the year – I’d give her a week max, I’m sure every Sunday journo is looking at her very closely as we speak
I’d love to be there when McFuckwit reads the front page of NOTW:
“BROWN GIVES SCOTLAND P45″
I’d love to be there when McFuckwit reads the front page of NOTW:
“BROWN GIVES SCOTLAND P45″
anon 62, that’s headline of the year if it’s ever printed!
Did you see her lying on the BBC? Does that shorten the odds a bit?
Law breakers by the Law makers.
Isn’t it great how technical errors and mistakes can always be an excuse for breaking the law. This precedent should be put to test through the courts not in the Press. It is great and fortunate to see the rafts of legislation perpetrated by these individuals come back to haunt them. I am hoping for a bit of Anti terror legislation catching bliar for the ongoing debacles in foreign land. I am sure lying should be an offence especially when our good troops are being killed for it
You can’t beat the Brighton Argus for headlines though. My favourite being ‘Porn Star Loses Appeal’.
(That wasn’t about the Baroness, btw…)
She should be swinging from a tree.
How can anyone be ‘bitterly sorry’. Does that mean she is not sorry, but bitter or bitter about having to be sorry, or bitter and sorry only because she was caught out breaking the law?
4/9 odds better make
such a Hoon
She’s taking the piss out of all of us.
Describes it as on par with not paying a congestion charge and then says she’s ” bitterly, bitterly sorry”…yeh we all apologise like that when we forget to pay Boris his 8 quid!
MI6 has a point – maybe we should get Chris Galley to persue this Labour trough swilling female like he’s after prosecuting Jackboots Jacqui! Then maybe Blears…Beckett..and we haven’t touched the backbench babes yet… MAKES YER PROUD TO BE A GAL EH LADIES?
Time to Beam Up, Scotty.
Not paying congestion charge is the same as Hiring illegal immigrant workers.
ROFL……. HOONS>>>>
Not paying the congestion charge is ok? I am, like, so there!
We have to rely upon m’learned friends to become the moral decency for the country because Macavity was off on his latest “Save the World” tour
I wonder how many Tory “home helps” quietly received their last pay packet this week, with just a little extra to “keep quiet”?
112 this isn’t a party political matter. It is a troughing do as I say not as I do general political matter.
Well said Sir Reg. Aquinas has clearly given up his halo.
Typical socialist: never a ‘mea culpa’ always a ‘well the Tories did it too’. The point is she steered this law through the Lords, was told about its faults, ignored them, and was caught by her own law. It couldn’t have happened to a more worthless person.
This woman is in charge of the law but does not even know a law she introduced herself. She claims she saw documents which she either didn’t see or were false so that is not much of a get out. I think she is lying. All she claims she did was forget to photocopy said forged/non existant documents. Complete and utter incompitance. Is it any wonder the new laws in this country are so crappily written when this is who we have in charge.
If Dave gets in at the next election, the first things he needs to do as a matter of the utmost priority is to nullify and make of nill effect every Act and Statutory Instrument passed between 1997 to the present day. Furthermore, DAVE (are you listening, Dave?) you must abolish ALL the Peerages created under Nu Labour and reverse the procedural rules for the enoblement of commoners. This is the litmus test, folks. If Dave doesn’t sign his name in blood next to this pledge then don’t even think about voting for him.
You may have noticed how they have tried to gain sympathy by suggesting that it could happen to anyone.
Have you checked the papers / passport of your plumber or builder?
Sorry, I may use the services of a plumber or builder but I don’t employ them in that sense.
Of course some wealthy MPs and Lords may well employ their own plumbers, builders or for that matter a full time moat cleaner.
After all it can go on the expenses!
How many Tory attorney generals are there at the mo?
The correct number.
How many will there be this time next year ? ;)
Or even “attorneys general”
GOOD. SO how do these champagne socialists justify having servants in the first place?
It just so odd that Gordon has not sacked her already. The Ditherer is going to have to sometime soon, so why the fuck is he prolonging the agony for all involved?
“M M M Mr Sp Speaker,” regurgitated Gordo McD..D..Ditherer
I take full responsibility, that’s why I have not sacked the person
responsible.
He’s not mentally capable of making rational decisions, that’s why. His judgement – if he ever had any – is shot to bits. The fallout for all this will come down on the Labour party as a whole for decades to come. Good, innit?
Socialism finally gets what it so richly deserves: oblivion. Thanks, Gordon!
Broon’s too busy worrying about dithering
I went out with a careerist lefty-wimmins* some years back. Her Czech “nanny” was paid £40 p.w. and was on-call 24/7. The justification for why it was okay to listen to this poor girl crying herself to sleep each night was that the lefty considered her “work” to be so “important” that she had no time to bother with the tedious job of bringing up her brats. And anyway, full-board was included. And it was more than she’d get back home… etc. etc.
* A minor name… who I won’t name.
Where did the brats come from? Turkey-baster or discarded husband or unknown collective member?
It’s your duty to name this despicable tVVat, dear boy.
Bazza, good to see you have seen the light. I had a similar experience, a few years ago. Wouldn’t shut up yapping, even when shagging.
Wouldn’t shut up yapping, even when shagging.
I find if you flip ‘em over and give them a good bumming that usually does the trick.
Name and shame Bazza .
It doesn’t surprise me in the least.No career is as important as being a mother to your children.If you don’t want to take care of your own children then you shouldn’t have them in the first place.
Well at least she didn’t beat her! I remember the trouble my Dad got into after he thrashed the stable boy for walking mud into the library carpet!
He was almost kicked out of the Labour Party!
No beatings that I witnessed. But then, the nanny was banned from entering the main house unless summoned by the lefty wimmins-effort.
No need to name this particular individual [market-value currently insufficient to override scruples] … but I believe such employment of domestic-servants to be rife amongst the Labour sisterhood.
Is ‘thrashing’ a euphemism, dear boy?
I notice that this criminal bitch has previous – a conviction for ‘careless driving’, which may well mean she mowed down a family, but received affirmative action consideration. How DO convicts get to be A-G?
Would an assination count?
Sorry – s/b ‘assassination’
Funnily enough, it used to be criminal offence
She changed the law to make it a civil offence.
Interesting.
That’s a coincidence. One of the first things Bliar did upon assuming office was to make High Treason no longer punishable by death. Perhaps there’s some connection?
Whaaat! you mean to say ihave supplies of ammo and piano wire I cannot legally use?
She should go straight away.
We had the “Community Payback” boys in our village this Sunday morning. I noticed that they weren’t wearing chains, does this mean the’re crimes were a ‘technical breach’ of the law?
When I made a technical breach of the law I had to fuck off to Brazil for 30 years
quite right too….. why don’t you go back and stop taking up a badly needed NHS bed.
I now realise that all the child pornography I downloaded was a technical breach of the law no worse then walking on the cracks in the pavement.
And all those tarts I buried wuz a teknickle breach of a badly-draughted law desined for dem Other People.
No Fred. It was simply a breach of the Building Regulations. That patio could have collapsed with only a young girl for foundations. You should have been fined.

Having read that the Attorney General has broken the law regarding the employment of illegal imigrants how can she justify remaining in her job? The honourable thing to do in such circumstances would be to resign, to remain in her position undermines all legislation. From now on anyone breaking the law can claim it was just a mistake pay a fine and remain at their post and those who have recieved heavier penalties for simlar offences must now have good grounds for apeal
You have blown your appeal for sanity out of the water by introducing “honour” into the equation. How can you be so stupid?
Anon is right – honour is no longer part of the vocabularly of Labour politicians, indeed it resides in very few of any stripe. I wonder what a Govt minister would have to do nowadays to resign without being forced? – murder, child pornography? What a tragic decline we’ve witnessed in this generation, in the morals of the body politic
Their sense of entitlement – of ” one rule for us ” – is utterly breathtaking
Yes, tell us more!
Will she let herself off?
So long as she doesn’t on a crowded bus
I knew she’d get off Scot free.
The Great Queen of Hardol’poo and Boy says any mate of mine is alright!
Is the Bar Standards Council anything like my gaff, if so, she should be able to get through this unscathed!
On November 5th.
Amazing how ignorance *is* now a defence isn’t it? To which other laws does this radical, seismic new concept apply?
The Nulab Defence Rule…….. to be used sparingly only when ‘caught out’
Yes, hmmm…. seismic …. that technology uses vibrators the size of a tank … shurely shome mishtake …
The laws regarding corruption and fraud as applied to Parliamentary allowances.
The language used is pretty calculated :
If I have this right, she admitted to “inadvertently” breaking the law – not being ignorant of it, you understand – she just broke the law by mistake.
Be interesting to see if some celeb’s lawyer tries to get a high-profile drink driving case dismissed that way.
“My client was aware of the drink-drive limit m’laud but inadvertently went over it. There was no intent….”
Any speculation as to what else could get the “Scotland defence” ?
I didn’t know it was a technicality that you can’t defend your property against intruders without being arrested
“My client was aware that he had to declare an income on the mortgage application but inadvertently wrote someone else’s income down not his own. He bitterly bitterly regrets that the wrong figures were input by the broker. He realises now that the broke’s reputation was less honest than he first thought, he appeared to be a nice fellow.”
Peter? Peter?
Is this you?
Sorry I bitterly regret to inform you, No. I simply was rehearsing the excuses when CommissionerSmurf gets his arse into gear and starts prosecuting some of the troughers.
the ‘ignorance is no defence’ argument has now been turned on it’s head. we are now in a position where we can all use this defence – the Baroness Scotland ultimatum.
she really is dim and by suggesting it’s equivalent to missing a congestion charge fee is taking the piss out of the electorate – nothing new there then. sorry – she’s only sorry she’s been caught – now where have I heard that before…….????
It’s the best possible outcome. Brown’s refusal to take action and Patty’s comparing it to not paying the congestion charge. You can’t buy a farce like this. They’ll have to pay for this at the election which is exactly what we want.
Yes, I do hope these quotes from Patty the Fatty appear on the opposition Parties election leaflets – ‘Labour, the Party that says………..’ etc
I’m as ignorant as they come, but believe me, I rule at defending myself.
Have you got a moat?
@450
If I had, you could pay to clean it.

7. She’s in the pink in that photograph, but secretly she’ll be more worried about her huge fat arms than her £5.000 fine!
Fat arms = Bingo wings.
Is that a national or a local term?
Alternative jobs for the Fat Baroness:
Prop for Harlequins
Kick starter of jets at Heathrow
Professional Arm Wrestler
PA to John Prescott
Bingo wings does NOT mean ‘fat arms’, esp not the firm fat arms of young and middle aged people: it means the wobbly dangly bits
of fleshy tissue and wrinkly skin that hang down from the upper arms of persons around 65+ and move about under their own steam… very visible in sleeveless tops. Older people play bingo (mostly women) ergo ‘bingo wings… It is normal Britspeak.
Just so’s you know…
Bored Secretary
I’ve seen many a turkey’s neck better looking.
She could also kick cows to death
Speaking of “in the pink”……..! Just wondering.
Well done whoever!
4. Yes, hmmm…. seismic …. that technology uses vibrators the size of a tank … shurely shome mishtake …
no one likes you, no one likes you, hey hey hey, you’re a hoon!

SHE IS HANGING BY A THREAD AND NEEDS TO BE FINISHED OFF…
THIS IS WHAT THEY WOULD DO TO A WHITE MAN – BUT BLACK WOMEN ARE TOO SCARCE IN GOVERNMENT FOR THE PC LABOUR CROWD TO WANT TO MAKE THEM SCARCER…
FINISH HER OFF !!
They didn’t prosecute any of the white men who stole our money. No, this is not about black women and white men. It is about the establishment and the proles.
Indeedlydoodly Sir William, tis not about black/white – for anyone brave enough (including mods/Guido) – bottom line, it’s all about this as presented by the wonderful Jordan Maxwell:
Awake and Aware in LA, 20th Sept 09:
http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/2199536
agree entirely sir!!
There is also the small matter of the £170K she claimed for ‘living out of London’ – which she now admits she doesn’t. Obviously one of those labour ’super-troughers’.
I do wonder why crooks bother being crooks & risking jail etc – they should join the Labour Party & then commit their crimes & they’ll never be brought to book.
London was inadvertently moved, she’s in the clear.
I inadvertently thought that the London referred to was the City of London, it was a technical error similar to overstaying in a parking bay by a minute or so. I am bitterly, bitterly sorry for this and of course have donated all of the money to charity, which I think everyone would agree, was the best thing to do.
What does that mean? Does that mean that within her legal profession she can be ‘ struck off’ and not permitted to work in a legal capacity?
That’s a cheerful thought. Then it would be even more difficult for her to keep her job as AG, wouldn’t it?
The gorgon says, – (BBC), that it would be too damaging to sack her! That’s what you call damning with faint praise.
Too damaging because Brown wouldn’t be able to find a half-way credible replacement who could be persuaded to take the job.
Yet more evidence that it’s time for this failed government to throw in the towel.
Please: print the ballot papers now, and get it over with.
Don’t worry – we’re printing ‘em by the truckload
Just to confirm that we have completed the first batch of postal votes with the Labour box already X’d. Hopefully this will make up for the fall in Party activists who usually fill them in for the aged and infirm.
Seeing her interviews, she is very, very uncomfortable and knows just how serious this could be for her career…
Guido, prove to her just how serious…
Especially while Gordon is out of the country and so she has no ‘air cover’…
Yeah. Get those crosshairs on her fat mug.
Do her.
All right.
Sigh
Why can Mandelson not just arrange a back-dated passport? He has form in this area.
Takes the heat of Brown. Well done Mandy. Who’s next?
At least it’s taken the heat off “the knob” (Straw) for a moment.
Gordon is where he always is when the brown stuff hits the fan absent-searching for his moral compass.
Average time from Brown expressing confidence to resignation: 61 days and 9 hours. I must get on that bet…
Pound to a penny Loloahi has reported her for her defamatory comments. After all she is married to a solicitor who will know the system.
I’m sure Loloahi must feel quite embittered by being played out as a pawn in the public eye and I’m certain her husband is advising her to bide her time while the bigger picture plays out. Question is, is Loloahi the kind of lady who keeps her counsel or, once Scotland has gone, bang, up pops old silver locks and says “I’ll get you £50k for an interview with the red tops” ?
doesn’t stop a complaint being made though. These complaint procedures are well drawn out.
Illegal immigrant? I should co-co. Keeping shtum now should go no small way to ensuriong the granting of that nice British passport. Perhaps Mandelson can advise on this one.
Co-co in this thread could be thought racist. I wish people would get it right — it’s Knockers Out, Knickers Off.
Had she been in any other walk of life .. she’d have been out on her ear long ago .. and quite rightly so too ..

301. A barrister must have regard to paragraph 104 and must not:
(a) engage in conduct whether in pursuit of his profession or otherwise which is:
(iii) likely to diminish public confidence in the legal profession or the administration of justice or otherwise bring the legal profession into disrepute;
…..well for my 50p worth, I think that if the gormless Baroness Scotland gets away with this, the profession of “BARRISTER” is a crock of worthless shit
Barristers – don’t make me laugh …… ha ha ha ha ha …….. more like an estate agent in a wig ……….. ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
That’s more than a little unkind. But I admit that if she’s allowed to stay on in her current position, it will drag down the whole of the legal profession beneath her in the public’s estimation (and that includes not only her own Office, but that of Queen’s Council, Treasury Council, Senior barristers, Junior barristers, Solicitors, Legal Executives, Paralegals: in short, all lawyers.
All it needs is just one more teeny weeny sniff of scandal/corruption and this old bird will topple over just like top heavy JackbootsFivebellies did.
So in the immortal words of the Seven Dwarves, Dig,dig,dig,dig,dig,dig,dig,dig,dig the whole day through.
She is on the ropes and should be counted out sooooon.
Never give up(Barbara Streisand 1973)
“I made an administrative technical error for which I am bitterly, bitterly sorry”
NuLabour -> Normal English translation:
I broke the law that I helped write and I am very bitter to have been caught out.
The odds have already shortened to 11/8
[...] General, Baroness Scotland, will resign or be sacked before the end of this year” writes Guido on his [...]
Did you see the expression on her face when she said [in effect..] ” I am BITTERLY, BITTERLY sorry I got caught..”
Synthetic regret, pertaining only to the fact that they know as well as we do that this is a law designed to avoid all that inconvenient effort on border control and replace it with a few dozen people raiding chinese and indian restaurants who are doing their best to provide a service most of us enjoy in a competitive business market.
Something the fuckers in the Government know little or nothing about..
She actually tries to equate her negligence and double-standards with OVERPAYING congestion charge. Does she think the little people are really that stupid?
This government are crooked to the core.
I’m just a Northern Monkey. Our roads are free. Is it an offence in Londinistan to overpay the congestion charge? Please enlighten me you shandy drinking, congested southern poofs.
Yes NM we pay for our roads as well as for yours, your houses, your benefits and everything else you good-for-nothings enjoy. The UK would be a third world country without the South East, but perhaps that’s what you want.
Stop whinging, Mongrel, and cough up some more of that luurvely Barnett Formula cash!
With OVERPAYING the congestion charge ??? Does this mean she took multiple copies of these invisible documents or employed multiple illegals ???
Back in the Fifties I was prosecuted for riding a motorcycle without a licence and insurance. I pleaded guilty by letter and was fined £5 – 10 shillings a lot of money for a sixteen year old to pay. About 2 years later I applied for a driving licence and on the application form the question was asked “ Have you ever had an endorsement on your licence?” Never having had a licence I naturally put no! However I was told that a licence is automatically endorsed for the type of offence I had committed and I was charged with making false declarations on a licence application form. I wrote to the court explaining that not having ever had a licence I was unaware that a non-existing licence could be endorsed. I was informed in NO UNCERTAIN MANNER THAT IGNORANCE IS NO DEFENCE IN LAW. And duly charged with the offence.
Ah but you’re not an immigrant ethnic minority Labour Baroness are you?
If she were also disabled, a single mother & a lesbian & she’d be playing with the full pack of Labour ‘Get out of Jail FREE’ cards. Is she any of those?
You could consider appealing. Try The Criminal Cases Review Commission find them here http://www.ccrc.gov.uk/
Have they just let you out. What a Miscarriage of Justice… The AG should be well disposed to looking at your case again… might be worth a few bob in compensation.
Another “technical offence” committed by Government employees.
Presumably they will announce that they are “bitterly sorry” and will keep their jobs with Gordon Brown’s support.
http://dizzythinks.net/2009/09/nothing-to-shout-home-about.html.
(Thanks to Dizzy)
and what pray is the Attorney General doing about it???
She’s supposed to be a legal wizzard, yet she can’t even follow her own rules and regulations. A travesty of justice.
Not only that but a clear example of sheer arrogance. She tried to argue this afternoon that her misdemeanour was akin to forgetting to pay the congestion charge (like the Mayor of London recently) but if that were the case, why the continued hoo-ha?
Has she not paid the congestion charge? Classic.
Oh my! You fail to understand.
Our lawmakers make laws to curb only OUR behaviour – not theirs.
The laws they frame don’t apply to themselves. They live by an alternative set of (very much looser) standards. I’d assumed this was obvious. It’s a rather obvious perk of the job!
She needs a new cleaner so…
Ah, g’wan, g’wan, g’wan, g’wan, g’wan, g’wan, G’WAN
The rictus grin of Mcmental and the arrogant leer of scotland and all the rest of those newlabour turds, you would think that you would get used to it but its getting harder to control my rage every time I see these people prance and preen, gloating over their untouchable status.
All the money they steal, all the lies they tell, all the smears they plan, all the treachery they indulge in and all the while that smirk/leer/grin is a permanent feature, as if they are laughing at us, laughing at the poverty and misery they are heaping on the UK.
The rats have their escape plans settled of course, the quangoland swamp is ready to embrace them and the house of vermin in ermin is ready for the elite of the elite, the EU is making space availible, they are laughing whatever happens.
They will not suffer as we suffer, out of one parasitical sinecure and into another more secure one, not for them the shame and humiliation of standing in line at the job centre or having to go before a grilling for a pittance in dole money, begging for scraps from the table of the new overlords!
Its not the words they utter, I have long since stopped listening, its that collective leer that burns my toast.
Its not the words they utter, I have long since stopped listening, its that collective leer that burns my toast.”
Cassandra-over the course of the last 2000 years of human history, when was the last time a corrupt system(such as we have in the UK) EVER overturned by well meaning voters such as yourself patiently awaiting to put your X in the allotted square in the ballot box??

What is it with Brown?
Why does he always,always dither dither then do the wrong thing.
He must realise his conference is only days away. A media storm blows up and he does his usual dither..bit more dither..half hearted no comment – then dither – then full support for the badly damaged AG.
Is he really so dumb he just thinks – well last time I didn’t support Blears and that turned out bad for me, so this time I”ll support her.
He hasn’t an ounce of strategy.
The 10 pence PM is legacy.
Why does he always dither and then do the wrong thing? Because he is genuinely, innately, congenitally, really, honestly, truly, assuredly, undoubtedly, irrevocably, absolutely, unmitigatedly crap.
Say what you really mean Talwin, don’t hold back.
Simple. He has managed to get himself promoted way beyond his mediocre abilities. David Brent is a genius compared to this tool.
No, no you have it wrong. Gordon McSnot is wonderful & is tonight receiving his World Statesman of the Year Award – according to Rab anyway

She has the full confidence of Hoon-so she’ll be off soon!
As I understand it, if a barrister commits a criminal offence she must report herself to the Bar Standards Board. This is quite routine and doesn’t menaan the Board has to do anything. “301. A barrister must have regard to paragraph 104 and must not:
(a) engage in conduct whether in pursuit of his profession or otherwise which is:
(i) dishonest or otherwise discreditable to a barrister;
(ii) prejudicial to the administration of justice; or
(iii) likely to diminish public confidence in the legal profession or the administration of justice or otherwise bring the legal profession into disrepute;
It’s hard to see that any of these apply. Pattie Scotland’s actions might diminish confidence in her personally, but hardly in the legal prfession as a whole.
how about “likely to diminish public confidence in the legal profession”
Bollocks – I have diminished confidence in the legal profession, how can’t you?
Many people would (wrongly) interpret Baroness Scotland is head Barrister – this is why there are rules against fucking up because it will bring chaos in court if people are taking the piss out of the Barrister – how many people are going use the “technical breach” defence – would would bet serious money it will become known as “Scotland’s Defence” or the “Scottish Defence”
I couldn’t have experienced diminished confidence in the legal profession, because I had none to start with.
Ah – the Scottish Defence.
Hoon to Hoon’s pawn 4, check!
That would be the legal profession of ambulance chasing legal aid shysters? They are lower than a snake’s anus. The only confidence I have in any member of the legal profession is that they would take you for every penny you have given half a chance. How else do you explain the preponderance of shysters in the HOC?
As far as I am aware the “noble lady” has not commited a criminal offence. At least not one that can be proven. Though until we get the cleaners side of the story I remain hopeful. If she had any integrity she would resign, but Nu Laybeh don’t do “integrity”
Lawyers have ruined this country with their sophist pedantry !!!
Thank goodness I have a dictionary.
Now, just needing to look up ‘ruined’.
What are solicitors charging these days about £200 an hour plus additions for any letters that they write on your behalf.
Good work, great con, if you can get it.
It depends on how good a solicitor you get. Doesn’t it Guido?
I thought it was Labour ministers, lords and baronesses who needed the solicitors at the moment.
What, exactly, are they soliciting?
Yes, and how many solicitors are out there fighting the Taleban? I’ll tell you: none!
I don’t agree with that at all.
This is just getting desperate now. Is there no-one else you can pretend to go after?
Shall we come after you Jimmy? would you like that?
Who’s “we”?
More to the point, who are “you”?
The consensus seems to be Draper, although one theory suggests the Baroness herself. I like to keep an open mind.
Come back when you’ve decided.
Since you seem incapable of making your mind up, that would tend to point to Brown.
Hoon
Darling
Blears
Smith
Cooper
Balls
McNulty
Martin
Morley
take your pick.
No he’s already pretended to go after Smith. It’ll have to be one of the others.
Where is smith these days?
Haven’t seen her around for a while now.
Jimmy, you do talk tosh.
She’s quivering in terror at the private prosecution being mounted by the Gobshite Centre. Any day now. You’ll see.
Could you be less specific Guido?
Yes, the ‘Sunlight Centre’ does sound like a drop-in for the over-80s in, well, Port Sunlight.
More of a halfway house.
well you wouldn’t have to live in a half way house if you weren’t a crackhead now would you jimmy?
stop taking crack and start living your life you dopey fuck.
look at steve expat the tramp, he used to be a useless crackhead c’unt who lived in a cardboard box but with my help, support and encourgement he stopped using. and steve’s tory scum for fucks sake.
be like steve and put that fucking crack pipe down and choose life instead of just being a skanky new labour war criminal crackhead whore.
You missed Hain and McBride – Guido’s two biggest scalps to date surely?
Nope. Already pretended to go after them too.
Jimmy, will you fix it for me that you have a reality check?
Long hair, if I were looking for a reality check, a thread about how the Bar Council is going to discipline the Attorney General would hardly be my first port of call now would it?
oh I get it jimmy, you use crack and heroin because you are depressed.
but don’t you understand that it is your substance abuse you junkie that is causing your depression!
you stupid fucking cripple.
PUT THE FUCKING CRACK PIPE DOWN MOTHERFUCKER!
You forgot uddin.

Bitty!
Balls, because he’s worth it (not) and it makes me laugh.
Can we add Cash, Osbourne, Taylor, Duncan, Butterfill, Barker, Beresford, Binley, Blunt et al to this list please?
For God’s sake, I was just starting to get over it. Now I’ve gone all bilious again. The thought of that lying little turd McNulty……
And fuckwit Balls who’s just remembered his department has been wasting £2 billion a year, but don’t worry we can still run it just as badly on a load less. Little slimy shite!
And is it coincidence that “Tonga” rhymes with “Wonga”….? And will the dusky maiden pay us back the £170,000- odd she had away in x’s.
Yes, our wonderful faux police.
“its the same as not paying my congestion charge” says the Baroness
erm , how’s that work then?
the fine alone dictates the seriousness of the offence.
even under Ken £5,000 would seem a bit steep to drive round Piccadilly for the day.
Time to check whether she has ever been done for not paying her congestion charge?
If she’s so clever at avoiding full weight of the law what else has she been up to?
She gets congested?
Ye gods…
I listened to her “defence” A administrative, techincal blah blah – that she is “BITTERLY BITTERLY sorry for”.
The two terms bitter and sorry do not really seem to belong with each other…. But I think she was speaking the absolute truth….
She is bitter and sorry for is being found out!
I think Cherie Blair will be the next Attorney General.
Why not?
In this terminally corrupt, God-forsaken country anything is now possible.
She’d better fucking not – Imagine if the Tories had to get rid of her once they got in!
Only till May!
As I mentioned on another thread, if you are looking for a slippery f***er here he comes:

Does a passable Bryant impression I believe.
At least she only forgot to pay her tube fare.
What with her expenses troughing she brings even more odoure onto Westminster. Go, woman and go now!
Not that i give a shit about the Baroness, But this blog is turning into a rightwing racist ranting read. Is that enough R’s?
nothing to do with race
in fact I would prefer it to be a white male then you can get really personal
Turning? Are you new?
Awa and boil y’heid!
Admit it, Jimmy, you love it here!
What’s not to love? This is the future of political debate you know. It says so in all the papers.
Not new Jimmy just fed up with the recent “hang by the bollocks” replys to Guidos post. Used to be some great informative posts on this blog.
Anonymous: 22/9 @6.45pm.
There is still some superb informative stuff here, even if one has to wade through all the troll bollocks and bullshit (you know who you are) to get to it, it’s worth it – just !
50 Great isn’t it? You can always move to a leftwing loadsa limp, lazy, loathesome, lacklustre, lagubrious, lightweight Labourites. Enough Ls for you?
Barefoot, I hate labour as much as you do but slagging each other off is just getting boring. And i’d bet must of the “Fuck you” replys are posted by middle class men waiting for their dinner to be cooked while little tarquin is playing his violin in the background and if their wife found out that they swear so much online they wouldn’t get their monthly leg over.
I’ll bet most of them are posted by Tarquin
Hahaha! Guess they have to get all that bile out somewhere though. Saves the cat getting a good kicking.
Don’t take it so seriously. Only having a laugh. Got to get the spiel out some way, otherwise might run in to the street screaming like that painting by Munch(e), anyway catharsis is good for the health. I’ve had to take a load of personal abuse, you get used to it and all the swearing, part of life’s rich tapestry I suppose. Take but don’t give is a good maxim on this blog, and it’s never boring. It used to be worse, but some contributors have been restrained!
Fuck you anonymous – too fuckin scared to give yourself a name. Wanker
Tarquin’s Pater, I stand in awe at your courage and indefaticability in bravely giving yourself a name with which your identity remains anonymous. Such bravery will get you into Commisar Browns Little red book of courage. I salute you sir !
Sounds a bit tetchy. Maybe the monthly legover’s overdue.
Obviously it’s the right who are racist lol. Remind me again who is voting for the BNP.
Have to tell you about this event – it was called the 20th century. During it, across the globe, socialists and communists took over many countries and promptly set up dictatorships. Aside from the starvation and destroyed lives, another feature frequently found was ethnic cleansing.
Read up on this “20th century” and you’ll soon find that racism is sadly the preserve of no single political ideology. It is, however, most common among modern leftists who tend to view people in groups.
Now go back to the BBC website.
Res
Now go away
Nothing to do with right wing either.
I suppose “read” is accurate anyway.
You lefties burned the race card when you shot a Brazilian electrician because he had brown skin.
I love it when tories pretend to give a shit about that.
I’m well pissed off with both Labour and Conservative Tarquins.
Where’s my bloody supper woman!
I did give a s*** about that. Still do.
Now why don’t you try and explain why it happened under a labour government and why the people responsible will never be brought to justice.
It’s just a reflection on what a fucked up society Labour has created.
Also you’ve got a problem with people who keep their anger and annoyance bottled up and vent on the internet?
So is that the green light to act like our feral youth and ethnic friends now from labour??
We can all run riot in society kicking and screaming and swearing at everyone we met??
How does that fit into the ”equalittttttttttttty and divvvvvvvvversity” society plan.
Not to mention it’s abit rich for you SMEARERS to be judging anyone.
Fucking hypocritical lefties.
It’s one way of dealing with illegal immigrants. If he’d stayed in Brazil he might still be alive.
Iz it coz I iz Labour?
Nope its because she has broken the law and is trying to avoid the consequences.
And therefore it is because, like many of her labour colleagues ( field and hoey excluded), she is corrupt.
no coz you’re a cowardly Hoon
OMG! These blacks are filth.
The only black that is filth is dirt.
You really should wash more often.
Arrogant and dismissively impudent. Fancy comparing what she did with failing to pay the congestion charge? Like all the other members of this maladministration there is no self-respect, no pride, no honour, no shame, nothing but snouts in the trough for as long as it lasts.
Isn’t there one honest upright member of the newlabour party? They can’t even sack a bent lawyer right.
nope!
I’m bitterly sorry, old fruit.
She’s very keen on the congestion charge as well

You live and learn, I never knew it was Lord Sainsbury of Turdville
Dear God – how many baronesses are there on the Marxist benches in the House of Fools?
Too many!! Not to mention Labour Lords who think it’s fine to whore yourself out for loadsamoney in exchange for altering legislation.
You’re only saying this because you’re all racists.
If the Attorney General had been a white, conservative male and had committed this crime, and been found guilty of it, as she has, and had been fined £5000 for it, what would you say then?
If he had a duck castle, yes.
At last some sense. It’s not a race thing, it’s a thieving, lying, hypocrite thing.
M White,
I think you may have overestimated your audience.
Another example of the elitist caste system devoloped under this Government. Remember YOU are the little People.
“New Labour, New Aristocracy ! “
That’s what marxism is really – a bunch of people who want to recreate feudalism with them as the aristocrats.
It’s why these ZNL ex-marxists take to troughing so easily.
Why don’t they tax luxury cruisers and yots? Answer-it’s their territory
“Bitterly” sorry?
“Very” or “extremely” will do.
But “bitterly”?
You can take the girl out of Walthamstow, but you can’t …etc.
Well, the elecution lessons were a decent investment.
Don’t blame Walthamstow for her misdemeanours! There are plenty of other things to blame. Her inability to know the difference between truth and lies, her lack of courage in stepping down, her dodgy personality, her greed, her stupidity,. Her inability to understand the difference between a technical error and a more serious offence. I could continue. Will she claim the fine on her expences?
I’m always suspicious of people who wear make up or moustaches (unless they are just lazy) becuase they are hiding their inner self and are not happy with their true personality or capabilities.
Granted most of the Arab world, but would you include Allan Brooke and Montgomery in your scenario?
Electrocution lessons would be preferable.
How can anyone be ‘bitterly sorry’???
one combined meaning = with feelings of anger, injustice, and resentment whilst expressing regret for an action that has upset or inconvenienced somebody, or for a similar future action
Beats me how she can do this.
Pay me enough and I can do that.
For the slow of viewing, the good lady was shown on ITN introducing her law, which she has technically and inadvertedly broken.
A very helpful little clip…
Had she not been in a law office and had she not introduced the legislation herself there might be an argument for letting her stay. Neither apply and therefore she has to go.
And pretty quick as well if “Brave Brown” is to avoid yet further bits of his political person falling off.
Oh let her stay! Watching ‘bits of gordon’s political person fall off’ is proving rather fascinating in a horror-struck sort of way.
I agree, Nell; witnessing ZaNuLab falling apart is a bit like standing on a motorway bridge and watching a multiple pile up in the fog. Fascinating.
Gordon has more urgent things on his mind like licking Chineese arse in the hope they give him some money to save our economy. Even if they do he will spunk it up against a wall cause his a spendaholic the fucking Viv Nicolson Chancellor !
Once again its new liebores third way in action:
One can be unaware of the law, break it and are thus guilty.
One can be aware of the law, deliberately break it anyway and so be guilty.
OR we now learn this amazing new situation where you can be aware of the law but break it inadvertently.
Yup, even if its a law you pushed through yourself – so you can hardly claim ignorance. “M’lud, although fully aware of the law I didn’t break it deliberately.”
I inadvertandly Robbed a Train on a technicality cause Im a working woman My Lord
O/T
DT Economics guru Jeremy Warner reckons we are bloody close to losing our AAA credit rating, with debt interest set to be nearly 10% of government spending – if this happens we are pretty much guaranteed a visit from the IMF
http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/finance/jeremywarner/100001015/britain-within-a-whisker-of-losing-its-triple-a-credit-rating/
Even worse:-
a) The budget figures were extremely optimistic
b) Once investors demand a higher rate of interest, which they inevitably will, the interest charge will go way beyond 10%.
Still I expect he is only saying it because he is a right wing racist!!
The budget figures were worked backwards.
What figures do we need to put in to make sure we appear to be staying below the 10% figure which would trigger a downgrade?
Brown knows he “must” keep spending at a high level until after the election otherwise the cuts in public spending will feed into the GDP figures and show a contraction in the economy;
i.e. no recovery.
Continuing recession.
The only reason we’ve still got a AAA rating is because of Cameron, Osbourne, Clarke.
True story.
And high inflation. Mind you with the way they’re printing money, this will probably happen anyway. I hope everyone’s got their gold stashed away?
It was’nae ma fult ye un’stan
An’ ha’e come she has a name like that?
Away wi’ ye – she’s an imposter!!
YOU FAT WHORE
I wasnt “a civil matter”
No peron sued you over a debt
You broke the very law that you made you fucking slag
It was apparently a civil offence, unlike Prescott who is an uncivil offence.
Does the baroness thinks she’s whiter than white? or perhaps a whited sepulchre? Or even purer than the driven snow?
Does she think she’s ‘whiter than white’?
Black is the new white
Racist!! I can find out where you live
She’s tending in that direction. She could just about pass for an Essex girl after a stint in the tanning salon.
Apart from the obvious what do you reckon that there may be some beneficial side effects of this high profile case… and maybe some bad ones.
Good First
Illegals will find it harder to remain in work
Thus some will leave to go to their home country
Indigenous unemployed may find work where none existed but for the illegals
Bad
Illegals sign on the dole
illegals turn to crime
more illegals in prison
please add as above
Life on the dole is better than life in many an illegal’s home country. I’m afraid they’re here to stay.
BTW, if they are illegal can they sign on?
If the Honourable Baroness paid tax + NI, the cleaner must have had a NI number.
If so why did not the Inland Rev/DHSS identify the fact that she was an illegal?
They hand out NI numbers like confetti to any tosser who can be arsed to go to the dole office.
Illegals realise the state hates the english and is wilfully destroying it.
Illegals dictate to english how to live their lives in their own country.
Illegals become legal and disenfranchise english from their homeland.
THE END.
Indigenous unemployed may find work where none existed but for the illegals
And that reveals that you know nothing of the labour market whatsoever. You’re a blind and bigoted hoon.
I saw this hoe in the house of Lords a few weeks ago
Fucking hell

Boring bitch
BBC cocksuckers now making much of the fact that she’s the only “individual” to have been fined for illegally employing, umm, illegals. Daniel “Shill” Stanford seems to feel she is being persecuted. Daniel, she’s the fucking attorney general. She introduced the law. She broke that law. If we’re talking about the principle of the law applying to all, then she is, and should be, number 1 on te bloody list of people to keep an eye on.
And, how *thick* must she be not to grasp this?
Congestion charges… fucking arrogant bitch.
But, she’s worth it!
bc, the only thing she’s worth is the sack!
or maybe another length of piano wire hanging from a lamp post on Westminster Bridge…
She is one totally arrogant bitch who does not care, does not give a toss about the electorate.
Why?
Because she doesn’t need the electorate to give her position and status, she’s got that from the new labour peerage scam
Watch the interview again She also attempted to turn this into an issue for “working Woman” shameless opportunist that she is !
New Labour, New Aristocracy !
Interesting that Stanford has managed to find this out so quickly (assuming, of course, that it’s actually true). How did he achieve this swift analysis of data – and is it in the public domain so us proles can study it?
Furthermore, given that everyone recognises a very large proportion of illegals are being employed in the South East, not in filling stations and whatever, but as domestic staff for haughty, lazy rich folk (like Scotland) why are individuals a low priority for the absurd ‘enforcement’ arm?
Gordon wants to sack her but dare not .He is worried that she has got the full
SP from the security services ablout his unlived-in flat for which he claimed
thousands of pounds’ cleaning expenses ‘.
This latest intervention gives him more time to find a way of protecting
himself.
Do you mean the flat he bought at under-value via Geoffrey Robinson which was part of the asset disposal around the collapsed Maxwell estate?
The one that was charged to the taxpayer, exploded in value and which he gave to Sarah just before entering No.10?
The one she immediately subsequently mortgaged with Lloyds Bank to release a huge wad of cash, regardless of her having nil income to support said mortgage, and after which she is said to have spent the cash on woolly jumpers?
Lloyds Bank being of course the suitor of choice for the takeover of HBOS as arranged over a cosy cocktail?
Is that the one you mean?
Mmmm…I couldn’t comment.
Is that the ame one the invisible cleaner spent all day cleaning in, that being the same one his brother also benefited from out of the public purse, that one ? Surely not !
New Labour New Aristocracy !
I thought the thieving gits could only claim for second homes, not third or fourth. He’s got a place in Jockland, 10 Downing Street, and Chequers. How many more does he expect us to pay for? Or is it another ‘technical breach of the rules’?
Mr Melanie Phillips now putting the boot in on the BBC…
Someone called Sarah on the BBC saying she could be in the clear ‘if the media spotlight moves on’ or words to that effect..
Let us make sure that the spotlight remains on her…
But surely no-one on earth can survive the crosshairs?
Oh Jimmy!! You need to discover a sense of humour.
Soon as I’m finished on here.
Sees you Jemmy!
Aye wor Kev, see ya.
Hand your resignation in today it is your duty!
They don’t make them like that any longer, TF. What the chinese [see subtitles]make of it I can’t imagine’ hopefully they will see the Tartan and consider them Scots rather than British. Sorry my Scots friends, but any port in a storm.
“but any port in a storm”.
errr…. no … sometimes it may be better to die
The other side effect of this row is to ensure that no positive coverage of the Lib Dem conference emerges from Bournemouth…
They could be heading for electoral oblivion at the next election..
No positive coverage of the LibDems conference has resulted, because it was a mish mash of nonsense policies and a rather silly attempt to character assassinate the tories which failed.
I’m really disappointed in the LibDems. Until this conference, I thought, really thought, that they had the potential to take on Labour and become the 2nd party. I don’t believe that now. I think they’ve blown it.
Maybe UKIP can do better.
St Vince of Cable has landed on his arse with that hairbrained expensive house scheme. According to Brillo, see links at the side, the hoi polloi didn’t know about it until they heard it from the Gob of Vince, live, realtime, in all its idiocy. I bet he thought it was such a ripper they would swoon in admiration. He is now thought a pillock.
Opinion polls show that nobody in the country expects the LDs to win the next election!
Nokia shares are up
Pound’s down against the euro.
It’s amazing. Gordon has dithered for days over this. You could almost hear his desperation. Please let the story go away. Don’t make me make a decision. Please let it blow over. Then…..Should I sack her, should I keep her – oh what should I do.
Then finally he decides that not sacking, not doing anything is the best course of action and hopes that will make the story die.
And still it dominates the media. Now it’s overshadowing his trip to the G20 in America where he wants the media to portray him, again!, as the saviour of the world.
Breaking news Cybil – the earth passes through phases of warming and cooling.
Did you know there are about 50 different varieties of the herb Basil? And if you grow it in your greenhouse, as I do, it deters green and whitefly. It’s really great in a tomato salad with some olive oil.
I am mostly eating our allotment beetroot these days – the beets are great and apparantly boost vitality, and you can use the stalks and leaves as you would spinach. A real superfood.
BTW, did you know Gordon was a fucking Hoon of the highest order?
Frank I didn’t know you could eat beetroot leaves!
Vis-a-vis gordon – I wonder why Omaha has declined to have a meeting with him whilst he is in America. Seems strange that he’d decline to meet with someone prezza calls the greatest international statesman of our time, doesn’t it?
yes Frank
but is Gordon a beetroot?
Of *course* you can, and very nice they are too. A slightly earthy metalic flavour, chock full of potassium, iron other trace elements. Nice with lamb or in a curry. We grow loads of them precisely because they’re so versatile and they’ll grow in manky soil with little direct light. And of course, thanks to labour, we can’t afford to actually *buy* food now – not for ourselves and our children at elast, but we do manage to buy a great deal for troughing politicians and doley scrotes, as well as supplying them with copious quantities of drink and drugs via their disability living allowances…
Ah, life is fun in England….
Don’t be silly MadMan the beetroot is a very useful vegetable. gordon is ……nothing very useful.
Got 2 varieties of basil in my garden, but the best one (don’t know the name) has large green shiny leaves and is the commonest. Chop it into cream of tomato soup – home made – (tomatoes without basil are like a day without sunshine!) Don’t know how I can connect this with the erring Baroness.
Beetroot makes a very good borscht. Not sure about the leaves. Perhaps they can be combined with basil to make a salad.
I had two magnificent vines in my greenhouse this year. Fabulous grapes, but the leaves attracted dozens of bloody wasps. Does Basil deter those evil bastards.
Yes, Nell. Only some 16 yr old who’s been studying home economics at secondary level for the last 2 years will be ignorant of this fact. The two year certificate only tests for a candidate’s ability to do the washing up iwthout giving her guests an acute dose of the shits off the plates she serves up on.
Yes indeed!
Baby beet leaves are those ones with red stalks you get in your ‘mixed baby leaf rainbow’ salad, or should I say used to get, at £2.60 a pack they’re beyond my budget nowadays… but still when you can grow your own why worry? Or should I say used to grow my own, my plot’s been ruined by contaminated manure this year, the govt says it’s still ok to eat, but the problem is the plants don’t grow enough for you to eat them as they’ve all been zapped with systemic weedkiller beforehand… which they’ve just re-licensed again.
Super place, East Anglia, Great Britain, The World.
Some tit at the lib conference today accused someone of beind a climate change ‘denier’, which obviously puts them in the same boat as holocoust deniers. Therefore if you deny global warming, sorry..Climate Change..you are a Nazi. Simples
Please get it right Anon, it’s “GLOBULE WARMING”!
Thought deniers were the measurements of the thicknesses of womens’ stockings.
Well those of the green faith do want to spread International Marxism.
That’s the theory. Some of these nutters want to make denying that man made global war….. sorry, climate change , (it’s actually getting colder these last few years) a criminal offence as it is in denying the nazi holocaust.
Mind you, there are plenty of deniers in government who will blissfully tell you that everything in this country is hunky-dory and that we should give Labour another shot.
Not being senile yet I can remember our science teacher back in the fifties telling all us spotty herberts this very thing.
Indeed, tonight Brown is collecting his “World Statesman Of The Year” award in New York (as awarded by some lefty foundation no-one has remotely heard of)

Would that be the Sarah Brown Foundation for beards ?
World Incompetent Twat of the Year more like.
How convenient to “forget” to take a copy of the papers. This woman must think we were born yesterday.
To take a copy – you need a photocopier. As we all know Minister’s office expenses are parsimonious and therefore don’t stretch to buying a printer/copier.
Well the Bank of England has a nice one – plenty of copies there these days…
Shows how dim she is.
She should have blamed it on the civil servant who shredded Bliar’s expenses.
Does anyone think it possible that the Attorney General, being a female immigrant herself, took pity on her cleaner and employed her knowing that she was an illegal immigrant, and relying on her position to make sure that there would be no repercussions?
Makes sense to me.
You do inhabit a “nice” world, dont you?
Makes more sense that she put her gay lover on the payroll and bought in another cleaner.
Someone needs to look for the other cleaner.
I’d hate to clean up after those two.
yes, not too many solicitor’s wives working as cleaners are there. And who the fuck would marry that anyway!
But having to stump down to the newsagent at 7 o’clock for photocopy and then the copier is broke when you get there, is a right bummer.
If she loses her job she’ll make a great defence counsel for anyone facing the same problem.
She might be feeling ill by the end of the year, or, she might be wanting to spend more time with her family soon (especially if she’s got to do all the cleaning.)
This is how arbitrary the ‘rule of law’ has become:
“A spokeswoman for the Home Office said the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999 provided extended powers to immigration officers “allowing them, in certain circumstances, to search persons and premises, to enter premises for the purposes of searching and for arresting persons and to seize and retain relevant material”.
“The provision of these powers to immigration officers is necessary to allow the immigration service to make use of existing powers of arrest and to operate, in appropriate circumstances, without accompanying police when conducting operational visits.”
The spokeswoman also said that a warrant must only be served by a police officer or designated arrest trained officer of immigration officer rank or above
Since when were warrants issued by ‘police officers, etc.’? Once they had to be issued by magistrates.
Charterd Accountant, stick to sums and give the Law a miss. Serving a warrant isnt the same as issuing one. Nowhere in your post does it mention Police Officers Issuing warrants. They serve them or execute them thats what they have always done. What exactly is your point ? Where you at the game ? Do keep up at the back
And you, Sir, should stick to being anonymous.
Play nicely children.
Dear Mr Warrant officer your parents must have beena couple of half wits to give you a name like warrant officer !!!
Just to clarify .. Warrants are not “served” by Police .. they are “executed” .. Process is “served” by Police (as in a Notice of Intended Prosecution) ..
When a Warrant, whether for Arrest or Search is executed .. it is clearly marked “Executed” by the Police Officer executing said Warrant ..
Warrants are still issued by Justices of the Peace …
Many thanks for the clarification, Captain
only half right Mr Haddock the full term is actually “execution of service” and they can also be issued by magistrates and in Scotland, Sheriffs. So B minus must do better.
And Crown Court Judges with Bench Warrants etc we could go on all night Yada Yada Yada.
The first (and second) plod that tries to put his foot through my front door will get the shock of his insignificant life.

Alex Salmond bypassing the Foreign Office and establishing relations between Scotland and the USA on his own terms.
Whoops, there goes another pair of Nokias when Gordon reads that.
I have a strong gut feeling that aspects of this case could become miles more embarassing for ZNL.
What? Are you suggesting that the Baroness, the cleaner and the serbian Lawyer know each other on closer terms than we had hitherto been led to believe or that the cleaner didnt actually clean despite expenses claims being made for her, or….. you cant say that as there is no evidence of such scurilous remarks. Dont even think !!!
Don’t worry, he won’t.
Nothing like that – just ancillary aspects of the case that have nothing to do with Scotland that will prove much more embarassing than a quick exit would have done.

Keep Gadaffi clear of the house barber, he’ll make him look like a right knob.
Just a note.
“BBC Home affairs correspondent Daniel Sandford said he had been through the list of all those fined under the new laws and he believed Baroness Scotland was the only individual – rather than business – among the 1,156 to have paid fines.”
Must make her uniquely stupid or incompetent or both ….
She wasn’t fined as an individual either; she was fined as an Officer of State.
officer in a state you mean
Errrr no Moley, she is an individual who employed a housekeeper at her home, and simply should have known better. End of….
So public servants are above the law now Pedant?
Every cloud has a silver lining.
Once Baroness Scotland gets the heave-ho, she’ll be able to do her own cleaning.
Now where’s them marigolds?
…and if she gets really good at it, she could hire herself out.
She could pop round to Mandy’s for a once-over with the Mr Sheen.

Interestingly, the take on this is that it damages St Blair’s chances of taking on the EU Presidency: as he laid the foundations for Brown’s banana republic.
Some good may yet come of this.
Good point Mr Snafu (I love that term – there’s another one which complements it, but I can’t remember it…).
Bliar and Ms Letterbox are desperate for the EU to beg them to become another expense. It was his grand plan all along wasn’t it! Wait till the runes for GB inc are crap, then pass the baton to the dickhead who still claimed the ‘credit’, and has now failed dismally!

No wonder the world’s in the state it is with such people running it. Protestations over misunderstandings, mistranslations and even outright forgery just don’t stack up in the age of the Internet. Judasim is a religion defined by a visceral hatred towards all outsiders. There must be no place in public life for people with such abhorrent beliefs as these:
1. “Only the Jews are human beings; the peoples of the world are not human beings but beasts…” -Saba Mecia 114, 6
2. “Jehovah created the non-Jew in human form so that the Jew would not have to be served by beasts. The non-Jew is an animal in human form, and condemned to serve the Jew day and night.” – Midrasch Talpioth, p. 225-L
3. “If a heathen kills a heathen or a Jew he is responsible, but if a Jew kills a heathen he is NOT responsible.” -Tosefta. 9boda Za,-a 8, 5
4. “Every heathen who studies the Talmud and every Jew who helps him in it, is deserving of death.” -Sanhedryn, 59a, aboda Zora 8-6, Szagiga 13

OMG What a jewish rant.!!!!!1!
I guess the followers of islam could rant in the same idiotic vein.
No wonder the israelis and the palestinians are still trying to lead the world towards the abyss!!!!!
I´m afraid the internet is rife with antisemitic hate speech. Same thing happened to NIck Clegg´s blog the other week. He had to block comments over it.
It’s what the left are good at. I wouldn’t read the Guardian these days if you where a jew.
Nell do wake up old girl – that’s an ANTI-semitic rant not a Jewish one! The author has picked some 3000 yr old strictures by obscure Jewish authors and tried to pretend they represent all/current Jewish thinkers. And he clealry thinks we are ‘governed b y a conspiracy of the Jews’… He’s a nutter
27………..This didn’t apply to Bernie Madoff did it? I thought must of his clients were of the Jewish persuasion.He shafted more Jews that Gentiles.
THE SUN HAS JUST PEEPED THRU!
Nice comment in the Daily Telegraph unhelpfully spelling out to the great Gordon Brown that Bill Clinton had to sack two Attorneys-General for employing illegal immigrants.
They have also woken up and printed that given that she was involved in piloting this law through the Lords, she should go.
Looks as if Guido will be laying down some more good Bordeaux.
Brown couldn’t sack a potato.
He’s had his chips
I hear you – time to get my coat …
Did at least one of them not do the decent thing and at least resign since in the States they still appear to see that no one is bigger than the office !
Can I use her excuse for not going to prison for forgetting to pay my Council tax or compulsory BBC tax?
She’s a fucking old dog that needs the boot now.
Yes, I reckon you can man

try writing a book… be interesting to see what readership you attract
The Tongan Lesbo Love Triangle edition?
I know you. You wrote that book, “How I Wanked My Way Through Glasgow.”
Pubic recognition more like, you gay fuck.
The Attorney General being exposed as a criminal is like the Chancellor of the Exchequer being exposed for fraudulant accounting or a doctor being accused of multiple murders. Never happens.
Wait a mo’ ………
Come off it, next you will be saying that the Chancellor of the Exchequor flipped homes to avoid paying tax !!!!!
unheard of – he’s a nice man, a very nice man
A bit late, but nonetheless…..re those arms
She is fat.
But inadvertently fat.
in fact she was not at all aware that she was fat, even though she had checked
Thank fuck she didn’t photocopy that.
Dear Mr Guido – could you please consider taking that b*nkr*pt word out of your auto modding??
She is an acknowledged legal expert , who wrote a law and the piloted it through government.
Then inexplicably she commits an act that breaks that same law that she understood absolutely word for word.
Now she’s trying to say there are mitigating circumstances for her, but that those same mitigating circumstaces cannot be applied to the numerous small business that have been prosecuted, and in some cases bankrupted, by her law!!!!
Arms ?? I thought you meant her Coat of Arms? All Labour people have them y’know. It’s a great status symbol – can’t go to the Labour Conference without it.
Unless of course you are a TUC person (Like Simpson or Whelan) . All they need is the subs of their members so that they can book into £400 per night luxury hotels and enjoy £100 per head meals in the best restaurants.
It’s great being a socialist. Never been better!!!!
Technically they are Bingo Wings.

Jeez, a bingo wings virgin no less.
Oh!
Look up chaos theory Nell. I blame them for the shit we find ourselves in now.
Dack. Chaos theory? Is that the one which says that the flapping of a butterflies wings will create a cyclone somewhere?
Oh – is it butterfly wings?
Is it? I’ve been hurling groundless abuse down at the Gala queue. I feel bad now.
Technically thin you mean…
This is a variant of the Wendy Alexander – I didnae ken – defence over her criminal breech of PPER 2000 for a cool £20k for her ‘election campaign’ to be leader of the Labour Party at Holyrood which never happened because she was ‘anointed’ by Macavity Brown.
Unfortunately the Courts do not allow the ‘Alexander Defence’ for us plebs as we are not their bosses and we can not simply go and apologise to Parliament like the Hoons and Hains of this world.
How about the late Labour MP for Glasgow North, Mr Marshall, and his estimated £500,000 of back pocketing – not even an apology there and Glasgow’s finest will not investigate as it is a matter for Parliament.
Then there are Gordon’s banking pals who are still happily waving two fingers at the OFT, the High Court, The Appeal Court, the Master of Rolls and hiking customer bank charges to pay for their mistakes – even after having been told they are unfair, excessive and in breech of a fair contract with their customers.
To expect anything less than a ‘it wisnae me’ defence from Baroness Scotland is naive.
PS: As a Scot, I would happily accept the P45 for Scotland from Westminster :-)
Letter of Probate better still.

Joyce you’re talking to damian not george!!!!
I may be wrong (sadly not having time to be an anorak) and maybe this has been said already (don’t have time to read all I miss when at work either)… but wasn’t this law brought in because too many were claiming to have ’seen’ documents that later couldn’t be proved to exist? Suggesting they were – gulp -lying? So isn’t the photocopying aspect the most important, and the one you’d think the person responsibile would be least likely to forget?
Exactly, the arrogance of this woman is gut wrenching. Resign madam !
Shouldn’t that be, “Resign you dopey cow?”
Let us maintain a degree of politeness and decorum. “Resign please, you dopey cow” – if you don’t mind.
“Fuck off please you dopey cow, with respect “
The mad thjing aob ut it all is, that we all know that photocopies are easily gorged, which is why they are always inadmissible in law! If you claim any benefits etc etc you have to produce original documents,m inc your borth certificate, any bank statements etc etc
Every law these hoons have brought in has been ill conceived and badly drafted, let alone unfair.
apologies for typos, time we were all in bed!

O/T I know but some of our Czech Mates might be scuppering Mandlebum and Tone’s plans to carve up the EUSSR between them whilst we’re still under the “rule” of the (soon to be departed) pig’s bladder on a stick.

I just laid a fresh cable, anyone want dibs on it?
BARONESS SCOTLAND WILL NOT STEP DOWN.
On no account will she be allowed to quit. It will be the blood in the water for the media sharks who will start another ‘Duck Island’ style investigation for the inevitable casualties who would result from exposing other MPs, Lords etc. who have used casual labour without checking the immigration papers, even if it was for a cockney builder whose business has been in the family for 5 generations.
This ridiculous law could screw dozens of Parliamentarians so she will be instructed to hang on until the election, no matter how much embarrassment is piled upon her.
It’s like something out of Stalins USSR. Making it up as they go along now.
Yet another headline involving a government official which shows its going to pot and they are hell bent on staying in post, we need a revolution. Now
I think you will find that the Tongan cleaner in question will dispute Pattie’s claim to have inspected her documents.
Fat Pat could be facing some further questioning.
She’s had the frighteners put on mate, no chance of that any time soon.
That’s why Labour are such fans of immigrants because they can easily be misled and the fear of god put into them.
Presumably she’s been deported to Tonga by now.
She will have been given 2 options:
1. Go to papers for money, dish dirt, but be on the next plane out for good.
2. Say the right things, keep away from papers, hope for rapid citizenship to be fixed.
I think she has gone for 2.
Max Clifford might have something to say about that!
It’s a shame all your stuff is gonna be deleted. You’re making the rest of us look like literary geniuses.
Iz it coz she is black?
No. Its because she’s a fat, ugly, incompetent, lying, cheating, nulab piece of shite. The only good to come from this is that the longer her odiuos presence is in people’s consciousness, the greater damage for nulab and gordoom.
Long may she stay there!!!!
Can I use some intemperate language here?….Nick Robinson, he’s finally commented today on this whole sticking rotten- to- the- core shite heap.

Toenails is right up Brown’s stinking arse. He’s on the BBC to read out Labour briefings.
True no party seems to really want to be lumbered with the now poisoned chalice of the UK at the moment.
Baroness Snotland has just dishonestly claimed on BBC news that anyone employing an English person has to take a photocopy of their passport.
Are there no limits to her lies?
That is just plain dopey. If perchance the UKBA knocked on your door and interrogated your workers…. if they ARE UK nationals, born, bred, naturalised, then there is no offence. They have a right to live and work in the UK. It is only the illegals that have to fear and the employer who gives them a job and can’t prove that they did all the necessary checks.
No wonder our laws are in a mess if Baroness Dopey of Scotland can’t differentiate.
This is what happens when you let ’special interest’ groups hijack our systems. Fuck them all and their self serving agendas and manipulation and empire building.
Generations of the past must be breakdancing in their graves over the state of the UK today.
Not all English people have passports. What then Fat pat?
“Are there no limits to her lies?”
We’re talking about New Labour here, which kinda makes your question redundant.
As far as I am aware as a British National born in the UK there is no legal requirement to apply for a passport unless you plan to go abroad although of course Labour would like us all to have compulsory id cards. If the Chief Law Officer of the Uk doesn’t know even that fact should she actually be in the job in the first place ?
SHE MUST HAVE A PASSPORT, SHE WENT TO THE US TO NEGITIATE THE MOST ONE SIDED EXTRADITION DEAL IN HISTORY.PLUS SHE ONLY CAME HERE WHEN SHE WAS THREE YEARS OLD
Yes I noticed that to and went huh? is that right ? I take it she is talking shite but if so its not as if she is the Attorney General or something ….er…..whats that …SHE IS ! WTF!!!!
It’s FOREIGNERS who have to show their passports when applying for a job – the rules are the same in any country.
Stupid bint, go now for the sake of this country
Fat Pat Snotland is lying for Jamaica on telly right now. The Tories must be laughing their heads off at the Labour shower of shite.
Is it cos I is black?
Nope.
Are you sure?
Yep.
Gordon Brown is the most hated figure in the country and he’s white so i’m afraid race isn’t the issue.

Has the illegal immigrant been deported yet? If not, why not? They could get rid of her cleaner at the same time.
Perhaps they should deport you first. What’s the name of the leader of UNITE ? He said he wanted to retire to Cuba, ‘the ideal of communism’. Fancy trying it out for him?
Bet he’s got a fat wad if not millions stashed in the bank robbed from his union members to be able afford the kind of lifestyle he wants in Cuba. Bet he won’t be living in a barrio or be going hungry.
Like every communist state the divide between rich and poor in Cuba is tear inducing.
http://therealcuba.com/two_cubas.htm
Yes, I plead guilty. My ancestors came over as illegal immigrants from Denmark in the 9th century. I wouldn’t mind being deported home.
Apropos the “cleaner” – sorry to disappoint but I think its unlikely that she will actually be deported as she could claim under Art 8 “Right to family life” and Art 12 “Right to Marry” of Human Rights Act 1998 that as she has married a British citizen(irrespective of whether should have applied for permission or not) she has a right to remain in the UK and deportation will affect her rights under the Act(sweet in view of Labour bringing in the legislation to British Law in the first place).If she is perchance also pregnant then she is totally bomb-proof.She could also apply for permanent right of residence as she has been in country for 2 years after her marriage. As her husband is a lawyer I would think he knows all the loopholes and ploys to delay deportation anyway This saga could run and run.She hasn’t even sold her story yet to NOTW or some other rag but it can’t be too long before she does especially if the UKBA or government start to try and deport her. And if she appoints a well know publicist Gordon might as well give up now – as this will break right in the middle of the Labour Conference and push all else off the news cycle.So much for Gordon’s re-launch mk 15. Still think the Baroness is worth hanging on to – Gordon ?
She’s not been deported.
It was reported that she had married a Brit, in which case she should be free to stay – assuming the marrriage wasn’t some sort of a sham (as some have suggested)
This may well have saved Scotland, as the cleaner is only illegal on a technicality (not having the paperwork sorted) rather than being someone facing deportation.
it’s not the cleaner that’s the problem here
Why would a man in his position as an Immigration Lawyer marry a bi-sexual person whose only means of support is working as a cleaner?.This just doesn’t addd up.Once married did she really have to work as a cleaner?Perhaps they are not really married in the sense that the local C of E vicar, his congregation and the general public thought constituted a marriage.Perhaps he married her so she could stay in this country and she paid him for this.Whilst it is said he was born in London,he has a Serb background.Funny how all these foreigners marry each other so they can stay in the country.I personally know of eastern Europeans who had arranged marriages to stay in the UK long before their countries joined the EU.They all married gay people and money changed hands,This scam has been going on for decades.
You’re a beautiful person – you just don’t know it.
Like gordon you’re a little deranged and need counselling.
Fortunately, unlike gordon, you are not in charge of anything.
“Reported To The Bar Standards Council” Why ? Did She Flop Her Tits Out In The HoC Bar ?
The Bar Standards Council reports it would take 15 cans of special brew and then she would still only rate as a maybe.
nasty but funny :-)
Is it cos she is Cack?
If you dont want a lawyer for a neighbour
dont vote Labour
It’s not the fact that she’s a lawyer that’s the problem. It’s the fact that she’s a hypocritical hoon, and a trougher to boot (though it seems that the rules have been retrospectively changed on the troughing allegation, so she’s only a has-been trougher).
Wait for it – the law in respect of employing illegal immigrants will be quietly amended as well , just as soon as gordon thinks we aren’t watching any longer.
Sorry, of course, I mean mandy.
Indeed.
The real hypocrisy is begging to keep one’s job with a promise that one’s small and meek “co-conspirator” has been summarily dismissed.
What a troughing, cynical, cun†.
That rings a bell. Wasn’t it a campaign slogan in the 50s (with a different word instead of lawyer). You must be nearly as old as me.
£5,000 ha ! Wheres My Purse !
You left it on top of your photocopier.
Scotland – “She said she was confident that “having seen the example made of me there won’t be any woman in the country who won’t be now reaching for that passport and making sure she’s got the copy”.
Just catching up with the Wolverhampton Businessman who for years has known even a minor breach of regulation = financial crucifixion

Not a very nice way of referring to her former employee.
It seems that those working on government service certainly do begin at Calais.
With 250 people on every square kilometre of land in Britain and the sea coming in – inexorably – somebody will soon have to start limiting the population by legal means.
Those who, in the future will have to apply to ‘have’ children and the people who will ultimately be in charge of giving out the permits is a cause for real concern, especially when one espies the wig-wearers of today – how ethnically unrepresentative of the population they have become.
Brown will doubtless take a major leap of confidence in that.

Brown standing behind Baroness Scotland was greeted by these sources with dismay as they bemoaned a terrible decision that would come back to haunt Brown and was proof of his increasingly out of touch attitude.
Brown’s going to have a nightmare conference if the plotting continues.
What she did was no worse than working in a shop and selling alcohol to a five year old. It was only a technical lapse after all. No harm done.

Tourism minister Barbara Follett has moved to a junior ministerial role at the Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG), the Government announced today.
The move was triggered by the return to office of Margaret Hodge, who will resume the position of tourism minister. ”

It’s so sad for the deep pool of talent available to Brown that he can only shoehorn two desperately over-rated ex-ministers back into his team. What about all the other poor souls who need a ministerial top-up just before losing their seats in a few months time?
Rumour has it that Follet’s house is looking a bit dirty since she had to pay for her own window cleaners – tight-fisted as well as useless is not a good combination.

[...] +++ Baroness Scotland Reported to Bar Standards Board +++ Bookies William Hill are offering odds of 9/4 that the Attorney General, Baroness Scotland, will resign or be sacked [...] [...]
Oh let the little lady keep her job.
What would Gordon Brown do with an honest minister?
Let her stay so she can incontrovertibly prove that lies, deceit & dishonesty are best for the chief law officer of the UK.
If she stays then it is absolute proof that dishonesty pays.
After all Gordon Brown says so.
Rumour has it that the ‘document’ was the employee’s Tongan passport, which contained not a working visa, but a student visa that had already expired years ago. So photocopying it was irrelevant, since it was clearly invalid and expired as well, to all except a dimwit. If a photocopy had been produced by the A-G, it would show that she was either incompetent or guilty of gross negligence and incapable of serving professionally in the government.
So obviously it was quite opportune that no photocopy could be produced, to ensure a ‘technical’ breach only.
Very convenient. and why did the Border Agency raid the cleaner’s home?
“Very convenient. and why did the Border Agency raid the cleaner’s home?”
One assumes, to remove the evidence which you mention and to leave the fragrant ‘Baroness’ with ( in proportion to the size of her trough) a trifling little fine.
No government agency is going to act against an AG.
Just wanted to add, the Baroness seems to be accusing the housekeeper of forging identity documents – a serious offence surely. We do need to hear the housekeeper’s side of the story.
If William Hill are offering 9/4 that she will be gone by the end of the year it must be odds on that she will stay.
9/4 yesterday – they appear to have pulled it today – she’s toast.
Congrats to everyone who got money down yesterday – not like the bookies to balls up like that.
I understand that in the 1950s John Christie (formerly of 10 Rillington Place NW1) was hanged for several “technical breaches” of the law of murder.
Has the passport turned up yet?
Scotland knew that she had to take a copy of it, so why didn’t she?
Did she know that her skivvy was an illegal immigrant?
That would be a little more serious than “failing to pay the Congestion Charge” as the arrogant cow suggested yesterday.
I have a feeling that the press bloodhounds are on the trail and her days are numbered.
Whether the overweight, arrogant, out of touch, Domincan British Attorney General did or did not have a technical breach this event is just another nail in the coffin for our one eyed Scottish idiot PM
After all, “all women up and down the land will be checking the paperwork on the housekeepers they employ” to quote the Baroness. Salt in the wounds to the masses.
Keep it up milady. You are doing more harm remaining than leaving your office.
What I find interesting is that beyond some sarcastic posts here, nobody has played the race card in Pattie’s defence. Could it be that even the usual suspects accept she’s bang to rights?

The UK’s wRetched Government’s default position is that, if it moves, over-tax it and over-regulate it until it colllapses into extinction
…… and however much misery they cause others, they think that they are immune and that their inflated Ministerial Salaries, Pensions, Limousines & Expense Allowances will continue to flow in
This Young Lady has done very well – how many Employers outside the ANC can afford to pay BY RETURN OF POST a £5,000 fine …. err … “Administrative Penalty” is a better translation from the original Zulu
BUT as the most ancient fragment of Greek Philiosophy observed :
“To every inJustice, there is Justice”
This Young Lady has inflicted Legislation that imposes on UK Employers burdens Grievous to be Borne
I hope that she now realizes her Cruelty and her Folly
TOT SIENS

This judge did the right thing and stepped down, although it took him breaking the law twice for it to happen.
With Baroness having a more prominent position, once should be more than enough!

Does anyone else think Miss Tapui and Patricia Scotland look rather alike? Possibly same height and build? Certainly as unatractive as each other. And the Baroness is a supporter of LGBT issues.
Is there some rug-munching going on here?

Can anyone tell me exactly which documents she said she checked, and if one was the housekeepers passport.
As I understand it the passport would clearly show if the housekeeper was able to work and stay in the UK.

She should be swinging from a tree……
She was before she came to this country.

The last picture demonstrates the correct way to salute me. Carry on.
