Labour Looks in the Mirror and Knows It Has Lost

Torn subGuardianistas and the unpopular parts of the blogosphere are raging about the Sun’s full on assault on Brown and all things Labour. When Labour delegates were ripping up copies of The Sun on prime time TV what did they expect the response would be? There is a logical inconsistency about their rage; on the one hand they said the Sun wasn’t important and on the other hand they froth about it almost continuously.  That they keep on repeating the mantra that it isn’t really important tells you it is really hurting and they fear it.  The Mirror is an avowedly Labour supporting paper whereas The Sun is the biggest swing-vote paper, and it has swung decisively to the Tories.  That is why Bad Al Campbell and the rest of the Labour spin operation are bleeding so badly over the Sun’s shift…

This morning’s reporting of Brown’s conversation with Mrs Janes was a good news story, news is after all what people don’t want you to hear, the rest is spin.  The left is now in full on “Murdoch is evil” mode, Fox and the Sun will be characterised as liars.  They will take presenters like Glenn Beck and columnists like the great Kelvin MacKenzie and make out that this is biased news – it isn’t, it is opinionated infotainment.  Audiences like that, it is provocative and entertaining, Jon Stewart and Polly Toynbee do the same thing from the other side.

Murdoch does not have a monopoly on bias, the BBC and the Mirror are not exactly objective – though only the BBC pretends to impartiality.  Look at the Mirror and every day you see made up news, not just opinionated comment.  If you think the Currant Bun is tough on Gordon here is a selection of recent Mirror headlines resulting from a site-search for “Cameron”:

Cameron Choker, Cheap Cameron, Confused Cameron, Slippery Cameron, Bad Joke Cameron, Big Guns Turn on Cameron, David Cameron: Cheesy And Sleazy, England – It’s the Curse of Cameron (bloody hell, Kevin Maguire’s nicked the idea of a political leader who is a sporting jinx) and Cameron’s Credit Crunch Christmas.

The Mirror is no different from the Sun, yet you don’t hear the Tories whinging about it…

            Strange how Auntie feels the need to preface the word “Sun” or any associated journalists with the words “Tory supporting”, but feel no need to apply the same standards to the Mirror, its journalists or the numerous sycophantic guardianistas that litter its news and current affairs output.

          • cogitodexter says:

            For Labour to complain about the Sun’s coverage just misses the whole point about the government’s woeful record in supporting the military. The Sun are telling the story in a way that is a: accessible to their readers and b: gets the issues of Brown’s betrayal out into the open.

          • The Sun backs Blair says:

            The Labour leader is the ‘breath of fresh air’ that Britain needs, the editorial says. The Tories are ‘tired, divided and rudderless’ and no longer deserve support.

            The paper declares: ‘This is the election for the millennium. In six weeks’ time, Britain will vote for a government to take it into the 21st century.

            ‘The people need a leader with vision, purpose and courage who can inspire them and fire their imaginations. The Sun believes that man is Tony Blair.’

            Editor Stuart Higgins said last night: ‘This is not a decision we have taken lightly. We consider Mr Blair has all the qualities of leadership required to take this great country forward.

      “though only the BBC does pretend to impartiality

      Now that is the biggest sin of the lot at least the Sun and Mirror are honest about their bias.

      A very odd thing occured on PM this evening. The Top of the programme played part of the taped telecon between Gordon and Mrs Janes but the content of the programme featured an actor voicing Gordon for “legal reasons”. It was the same part of the interview, so perhaps they messed up the intro but I somehow doubt it.

      • 229
        jgm2 says:

        You’re shitting me. Voice of an actor ‘for legal reasons..’. Maybe they’ve re-enacted that legislation they had when Martin McGuiness et al had to be voiced over to deprive IRA terrorists of the oxygen of publicity.

        In Brown’s case that makes solid sense.

          The BBC have been stating all day that because Gordon did not know his phone call was recorded then they can not broadcast his recorded words but have to use an actor to say them.

            they did use Brown’s own voice for the intro but not the feature

          • Anonymous says:

            It is nothing to do with normal peoples laws: It is the broadcasting code of conduct:

            “If at a later stage it becomes clear that a call that has been recorded will be broadcast (but this was not explained to the other party at the time of the call) then the broadcaster must obtain consent before broadcast from the other party, unless it is warranted not to do so.”

            So keep on recording.

            Challenge for a virtual bottle of your choice: Where in RIPA does it say that you can not disclose to a third party a recording made using private equipment of a phone conversation. I can not find it. It seems it is misunderstanding of the restrictions of other intercepts.

          • Anonymous says:

            The weird part is: How did he get the phone number or address?

            Under the DPA the personal data has been used for a purpose outside the original intent. It is given as a contact for the army in the case of emergencies.

            DPA: “(2) For the purposes of this Act each government department shall be treated as a person separate from any other government department.”

            Unless there is an exclusion I missed, that allows crazy PMs to try and dig themselves out of a holes by annoying people on Sunday nights, there is no way he should have contacted her. A letter forwarded by the army would be correct.

      One has to Question why Gordon was cold calling Mrs Janes at 10 O’clock on a Sunday night. If he really was intimately concerned about the death of her son then he has had a month to phone her but within hours of hearing that the Sun was publishing his ill scrawled letter he was on the blower to Mrs Janes. Surely that is Political?

      Whelan – DT 13.4 2009

      He resurfaced in 2007 with a new job at the top of the labour movement, working for Unite, the country’s biggest union. As political director of Unite, Mr Whelan’s precise duties are nebulous, but he controls a large budget and staff of press officers and public affairs specialists, giving him considerable political clout.

      Few are in any doubt that that influence is used to benefit his former employer at least as much as his current one.

      The revelation that Mr Whelan was privy to discussions about setting up the Red Rag website will only strengthen suspicions that he remains very much an active part of Mr Brown’s inner circle.

        The Brown operation will be sophisticated enough to ensure they are spoofing IP addresses, and their system will allow each user to work with multiple personalities across many media channels.

        There are traffic analysis techniques that could be deployed by the Mail etc to identify stories which are being astroturfed. It’s also possible to analyse text to identify which posts are likely being made by the same individual. The easy way to do this, though, is for the Telegraph to offer 50K to first intern to come forward with hard evidence. The Telegraph gets a story to rival expensegate and we hire a lawyer to sue the corrupt Labour motherfuckers. Mandy, are you reading this? I’d be a worried chump, lmfao!

All of them, and I mean all of them, said The Sun was bad, Mrs Janes was wrong and Gord was a great guy doing his job, writing personal letters and we should leave him alone. I have met NOONE in the real world who says this. GB’s letter was appalling, badly written and looked as though he scralled this off in a hurry because someone had said it was good PR to do so. This may not have been the case, but anyone with a brain can see why Mrs Jane thought they way she did.
      Over on the BBC’s site loads of bloggers are trying to smear Mrs Janes, and defend the Gord. I agree this is an obvious concerted attack and we suspect is organised by the socialists

      Of course the BBC are emphasing strongly that the mother had accepted the apology and lined up a load of NuLab simpletons to say ahhh poor PM. BBC also just pointed our with stopping the film report with click of camera photo taking noise) that he is being scrutinised in every word he said. Funny that seemed not to happen with Cameron or anyone else.

      They have now stated in this news broadcast on BBC world and I quote:

      ” We are not broadcasting Browns conversation AS IT WAS RECORDED WITHOUT HIS KNOWLEDGE?”. Hahahahahahahaha so they won’t repeat his conversation for that reason but will record our emails/ calls conversaions etc and repest then at their own convenience. That quote should be recorded and repeated everytime these guys even go near the subject. Proof enough this government has to be thrown out along with the BBC.

      Either way it’s all out war between The Sun and Labour now. Brown missed the opportunity to eat a little shit and do his best impression of an apology over the phone. It would have been the obvious, natural thing for most people to do, given that they’d mis-judged the effect their ’sympathy letter’ would have.

      ‘Mrs Janes, I’m so sorry for upsetting you at this time. That was not my intention, etc etc etc…’

      He’d have gained some kudos (had he twigged that ‘The Sun’ was recording it). But no. He just couldn’t manage it.

      You know, like when you’re splitting up with somebody but you want to avoid an unnecessary stand-up row so you just give it ‘It’s not you – it’s me…’

    Toenails was talking about how Gordon’s eyes were glazing over today (probably bored not being able to raise a new tax and having to talk about dead soldiers) then Toenails launched into a full on attack on the Sun. Like I say I don’t EVER remember the BBC sticking up for George W Bush when Cindy Sheehan was attacking Bush on a daily basis.

    The whole BBC narrative today has been to allow scumbag rent boy using lefties to come on air and claim that this is all some Murdoch ploy to kill the BBC.

          • VH says:

            Mrs Janes ‘taped’ the phone call from Brown by simply switching on her answer-phone when she realised he was coming on to argue the toss.

            There’s nothing sinister about having an answer-phone. Millions of us have one. They seel them by the thousand at argos.

          • Jimmy says:

            It wasn’t meant as an insult. You are trying to suggest some meek little woman being browbeaten, which is nonsense. I think she came over very well, far better than he did. It was simply not appropriate for broadcast

            transitive verb 1 : to scatter or sow (as seed) over a broad area
            2 : to make widely known
            3 : to transmit or make public by means of radio or television

            I assume we can take “for” as read

            The decision is generally taken, as in this case, by the broadcaster.

          • Unsworth says:

            OK Jimmy, so you’ve demonstrated that you can look things up in some form of dictionary. Now, put these three words together into your phrase ’suitable for broadcast’ and tell us WTF you mean. After all, you coined the phrase.

            And, if it’s the broadcaster who ‘decides’ presumably you agree entirely with any such decisions – maybe you are the broadcaster.

          • Jimmy says:

            Unsworth, the point is that these are ordinary English words. You know what they mean as well as I do. I think it’s a matter of judgment and taste perhaps incapable of being reduced to an exhaustive formula but as a general proposition I cannot conceive of any case not involving serious criminal activity where the public interest would ever justify the broadcast of a secretly recorded private telephone conversation. The subject matter compounded the lapse of judgment here in my view.

            “if it’s the broadcaster who ‘decides’ presumably you agree entirely with any such decisions”

            I’m afraid the logic of that proposition escapes me.

          • Budgie says:

            Jimmy, it comes down to you wanting to cover up Brown’s bullying. That is typical bully mentality – a method of controlling the victim – it’s classic.

          • Jimmy says:

            Well all I can say is that if what you heard was Mrs. Janes getting bullied then you should get your hearing checked.

      Rexel 56 says:

      Ah yes, Jimmy. Good of you to remind us.

      Those who cry foul at the heartless attacks on the poor defenceless Prime Minister are surely the same thugs who co-ordinated the Guardian onslaught against Coulson.

      The difference of course being that the Brown-soldier’s mother story is based on facts whilst the Coulson attack has proven to be somewhat less substantial.

      Wasn’t it McBride who rang Guido at the time to declare, somewhat optimistically as it turns out, that they were going to “get” the Tory spinmeister? How far the mighty have fallen into their own effluent.

      • 104
        Jimmy says:

        Attack the PM all you like. He’s fair game, as is Coulson. It’s politics, but if you can’t see that a line of decency was crossed here I genuinely don’t know how to explain it to you. As to what sweet nothings may have passed between Guido and McBride I have no idea and even less interest.

          The line of decency was crossed when Labour sent men to the front line that had to buy their own protective equipment. Go on DENY IT HAPPENS!!!

          Oddly enought something the government HSE department would shut be down for if I did such a thing myself (Which I don’t by the way and never have but there again I do actually care)

          • Jimmy says:

            I’m aware that a large section of the press take the line that standard issue military equipment suddenly became inadequate in 1997. Yhe cause of this transformation has yet to be explained.

          • Budgie says:

            It didn’t “suddenly became inadequate in 1997″ it became non-existent due to Brown’s cuts and Bliar/Brown’s incompetence at running the MoD, whilst starting two regional wars that we weren’t in in 1997.

          • bmp2 says:

            got it wrong sonny

            the cut and paste dossier was discovered to be bullshit very soon afterwards

            “the bulk of an intelligence dossier heralded by Colin Powell at the UN yesterday, was copied from three different articles – one written by a graduate student.

            On Monday, the day before the US Secretary of State, Colin Powell addressed the UN, Downing Street published its latest paper on Iraq.

            It gives the impression of being an up to the minute intelligence-based analysis – and Mr Powell was fulsome in his praise.

            Published on the Number 10 web site, called “Iraq – Its Infrastructure of Concealment Deception and Intimidation”, it outlines the structure of Saddam’s intelligence organisations.

            But it made familiar reading to Cambridge academic Glen Rangwala. It was copied from an article last September in a small journal: the Middle East Review of International Affairs.

            It’s author, Ibrahim al-Marashi, a postgraduate student from Monterey in California. Large sections do indeed appear, verbatim.”

        We should think that B’liar was transferring his own ‘Walter Mitty’-ness onto David Kelly – that being his own alter-ego Miranda.

        We should of course now insist upon a Miranda character in every Xmas panto. Just as commedia dell’arte got a crocodile when it became Punch and Judy, so the crocodile now comes into its own, chasing ‘Miranda’ at intervals through the action, tearing bits off here and there, before biting Miranda’s head off and tossing the remains into the audience. (Scope there methinks for a few half-size Elfin Safety puppets as well).

        No, it’s because the Sun is not a leader of public opinion, it’s a bandwagon jumper. As in 97 it has already decided the next election is in the bag and wants to take credit for the result. The Sun endorsement was a sign we were going to win, not a cause of it.

      As a dyed in the wool Tory (no labour IP address) my take on things:

      PM writing to the families = Good idea (W@nker Bliar never bothered). However, a typed letter with a hand written salutation and signature would have been better/safer.

      PM rings mother = Not too sure. Gordon does not do empathy nor does he accept blame. Any politician speaking to the public, especially on a sensitive subject, should work on the principle that it is being recorded.

      Sun publishes letter = Rough and tumble of politics.

      Sun publishes phonecall = A step too far perhaps, certainly published too quickly.

          Absolutely correct.

          Labour NZ had the same strategy and tactics.

          They also had come to the end of the road. They also couldn’t help but interfere with everyones lives and really started to push into the house.
          Smacking Ban as law, Shower pressure regulations in the pipeline.

          Their bloggers were a highly organised team working from the 9th floor of the Beehive. Paid for by the taxpayers, and NOT by the Labour Party.

          They were decimated in the election, and had it been FPTP and not a German style MMP there would only have been 6 full constituencies returned for Labour.

          All centred on Bludgers or Quangocrats of course.

          Since the election, the Tories down there have consolidated their position in the polls hugely, and what a relief to have a happy, balanced. and smiling Prime Minister. Rather than a dour, embittered freak that was Helen Clark. The parallels are very spooky.

    Charles Wheelon DT 13.4.2009 says:

    He resurfaced in 2007 with a new job at the top of the labour movement, working for Unite, the country’s biggest union. As political director of Unite, Mr Whelan’s precise duties are nebulous, but he controls a large budget and staff of press officers and public affairs specialists, giving him considerable political clout.

    Few are in any doubt that that influence is used to benefit his former employer at least as much as his current one.

    The revelation that Mr Whelan was privy to discussions about setting up the Red Rag website will only strengthen suspicions that he remains very much an active part of Mr Brown’s inner circle.

    The key point is that our papers are all run by crooks and cowards. I remember as far back as 1985 or 86 being on holiday in Dublin and the leading paper reporting the emerging scandal of a senior UK cabinet minister involved in child molesting. It never surfaced in the UK. I assume a D notice was issued but any proper press would have made sure the story appeared and damn the consequences. Similarly, I was told by a tabloid staffer that all the papers had the real story of what happened to Stephen Milligan and who really was first on scene – but they were scared off printing. I am no conspiracy theorist and do not brand all politicians as either evil or incompetent, but our press do us no good by focusing on the trivial (expenses, affairs) whilst suppressing major scandals which go to the heart of a few leading figures fitness for public office. If Guido or anyone else wants details on the kiddie scandal I suggest a quick search through the Irish press archives.

    Guido is quite right. The shitzkrieg coming from an overnight hatching of ‘I dislike Gordon Brown buts…’ is proof positive that Brown and Labour have finally realised just how much they are hated in the world outside their little bubble.

    They’ve obviously all been concentrating on the BBC HYS and Tony Robinson et al’s blogs without realising that the censorship had forced all dissent to move on to other places. Where we happily swap ideas and then ‘poison’ the minds of everybody we meet in our everyday life by explaining exactly what kind of a clusterfuck Brown and Labour have made.

    And nope The Sun has abandoned them too and they’re like lovers scorned. They’re the ones claiming custody of the kids and threatening to poison them rather than hand ‘em over come the courts decision hence their utter destruction of the economy and their systematic botching of every major decision that needed making this past 12 years. Even now their ‘fast-track’ nuclear power station planning proposal is just to defer the decision onto the Tories without giving ‘em any time to get anything built just so they can claim that although the lights went out (in say 2016) it wasn’t their fault.

    The astroturfing has moved into seriously corrupt territory now. The BBC Radio 4 news at 6 closed its hopelessly partisan report on Gordon’s letter/phone fuck-up, or Spazzgate as I like to call it, with an announcement that emails to the BBC strongly supported Gordon. This will no doubt feed back into other “supportive” mails, in what I term carousel propaganda.

    It is absolutely beyond doubt that there is an orchestrated campaign afoot to fake public support for the PM in online fora. Fine. If little old ladies are impersonating hesitant tories on the web, fine. If they pay for it all themselves. But if *we* are paying for wholesale lying, a national campaign of lies… then that’s a very different matter. Guido, you da man. Winkle this out. This is *as* important as the expenses scandal. This is about subverting the entire modern media, manufacturing consent, based on lies.

    Sure, they do it all the time, but this is so blatant, so slapdash, that I reckon they may have exposed themselves. These are not bright peopl e- they just think they are.

      That woeful situation has two things going for it:

      1. Elected MPs taking responsibilty back from unelected and undemocratic quangos is the right thing to do. Advisers advise not dictate. The whole lot of sorry shitstains in the Government and Parliament have dodged their duty to us by taking only two important decisions – to delegate matters to their chums and to accept what their chums decide. I am not keen on the current practice of us electing MPs who then hand over all our authority to other people just in an attempt to stop the shit sticking to them. Let Alan Johnson make the decisions and let Alan Johnson carry the can for them when he gets it wrong.

      2. There are plenty of experts who disagree with Prof. Nutt and his panel. Science and statistics can be interpreted many ways. Coincedence is not causation and there is no such thing as a consensus in science.

    Unlike the press, which has a free hand (don’t mention PCC, they are a spineless bunch of insiders), the BBC *has* to be unbiased. They have a requirement to report the news in an unbiased way. When they are accused of even the smallest amount of bias there is a seismic response – look at the fuss over Gilligan.

    Your accusation about bias in the BBC is simply because it exists in your Reich-wing mind. But if you truly have evidence then do the British public a favour and make a complaint to the BBC Trust, and if you are right then we will be yet another seismic inquiry. You won’t complain, of course, because you are a coward. But that is a trait of all you self-proclaimed “libertarians” whose form of liberty requires that the rest of us suffer.

    BBC now trying to spin that jacqui janes accepts gordon’s apology and desperately trying to deflect attention away from her brave attempts to highlight equipment shortages.

    All this afternoon’s ‘astroturfing’ has been aimed at that too. Message from slippery al and cwhelan to trollers – “Concentrate on gordon’s handwriting and his poor eyesight to get sympathy for him – don’t concentrate on Jacqui Janes real message that men are dying because gordon is failing to provide helicopters, equipment and enough troops to do the job.”

    Just listen to the end of the video where she says that gordon does not understand the anger and grief of a parent who loses a child, needlessly bleeding to death because there was a shortage of medevac helicopters. She says she is sending him a detailed report of the last hours of her son’s life and that she hopes he has sleepless nights over it as she does.

    Those are not the words of a mother who accepts his apology for not properly equipping her son before he sent him to war. And that is what this issue is really all about.

      In amongst this every anti SNP story that the media can muster from the likes of Maddox ,Barnes and even the loveable ,blubber ball Brian Taylor.
      Add to the list those Scotsmen and women who write scathingly of Scotland and the SNP in such revered papers as the Times, Telegraph and Guardian, and even if Scots were inclined to think the Union worth saving, the sheer barrage of anti SNP propaganda with which the media deluges the folk of Scotland on a daily basis , would convince that independence is the devils work and we should all tug our apathetic forelocks and accept a distasteful status quo.

    “Its great to see self righteous Lefties and Guardianistas squirming and frothing with anger over this. The bottom line is that this rotten New Labour project has made a living out of smearing its opponents in the last twelve years. Now we are supposed to feel sympathy for Brown after everything he has got up to, (smeargate for one example) I dont think so.

    There has never been the slightest reticence among the left wing establishment, (the BBC, channel 4, the guardian, mirror etc etc etc) to get stuck into the tories at every opportunity but when the bully Brown gets a taste of his own medicine then its indignation all round.

      What fucking despicable people. Not all of those are astroturfers, I recognise some of those names from my time at CiF. This is the true fac eof the Left. Bitter, hateful, envious, ignorant, cruel. There are the death camp guards, there is the dark heart that plots genocide. Monstrous people. And so convinced of their purity, their rightousness – that’s why they are so dangerous. In fact, I saw some of those same names screeching hate at Jan Moir for her mild criticism of that Gately feller – angry that his relatives were being discomforted; yet now, they screech hatred at a mother whose son has been, literally, blown to pieces, because she dares to face up to their darling fucking labour party.

      There is nothign in this world I hate more than socialists. I keep telling myself I should meet them half way, try to find common ground. But it just can’t be done. Theyr’e utterly alien to me.

        They miss so many points. They don’t question Brown’s motivation for writing these letters in the first place. They don’t question why it was Brown himself who, when none the relatives had failed to credit him with taking time to write decided to ‘leak’ the news about what a caring chap he was by informing the world that he writes letters to the relatives of the dead. Which rather gives the game away about the real purpose of the letter writing. What’s the point of taking time to write private letters to prove what a great chap you are if nobody hears about it eh?

        All bed-wetting about Mrs Janes recording a private conversation. No revelling in the fact that under Brown all our conversations are prone to be recorded by any little shit-arse council apparatchik.

      British soldiers are volunteers.
      Soldiers are there to “export violence” to quote an US Marines commander in Iraq.
      The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are part of an American policy agenda which has problematic motivations, to say the least.
      The way Western high-tech armies wage war results in significant civilian casualties and material damage.

      If I were Brown I wouldn’t apologise at all: The young man took a deliberate risk and died in the process. The only regret is that he did not live long enough to consider his own morality in all of this.

      gruenebaum does seem to have a tenuous grip on reality. Either that or our Armed Forces are fighting wars by themselves without instruction from the Labour goverment.

    Transcript of BBC News today:

    Beeboid: we now have Yvette Trotskyballs of the independent charity Army Wives’ Association for Labour. Mrs Trotskyballs, what do you make of this row about Lettergate? It’s not Gordon Brown’s fault, is it?

    Mrs. Trotsky: I feel sorry for Gordon Brown because he has tried his best. This is just an attempt to smear him. He has bad eyesight, that’s all. He put more money into military spending whereas the party opposite will cut funding to our brave boys.

    Beeboid: Thank you. Dame Suzi Leatherpants is an eminent graphologist and she is in the studio. Dame Suzi, what do you make of Gordon Brown’s handwriting, bearing in mind he has poor eyesight?

    Dame Suzi: Well, he has poor eyesight but his writing is superb: it shows compassion, leadership and inspiration. I know the prime minister has these qualities because he made me a life peer, even though I am a completely non-partisan member of the Labour Party.

    Beeboid: Thank you. I am joined by Lord Mandelson. Lord Mandelson, The Sun is just Murdoch filth, isn’t it?

    Mandelson: Yes, and I would just like to add…

    Beeboid: That it is just a plot by the Tories to smear the prime minister, who suffers from poor eyesight?

    Mandelson: Yes, and…

    Beeboid: Thank you. I am joined by Kevin Maguire of the Mirror. Mrs. Janes is just a Tory stooge, isn’t she? Gordon Brown is a honourable man who just suffers from poor eyesight, surely?

    Maguire: Yes. This will backfire on Druggie Dave.

    Beeboid: Thank you. So the Tories have real questions to answer about this so-called Lettergate incident. Nick Robinson, can David Cameron avoid a split in his ranks? Should he resign?

        I think what saddens me more than anything else is that I can’t help feeling that someone high in government is trying to spin the whole thing. I don’t really want to comment about Mrs Janes, because grief is incredibly personal, and different people react in different ways. Maybe Broon tried to do the right thing in writing a letter of condolence, but bungled it by making the letter look so poorly put together. But for me, the really insulting thing is the use of the bunker troll team to spin and smear. Broon should have accepted that he’d caused offence, even if it was inadvertent, made a public apology, and left it at that – but no, it has to be ‘damage limitation’, ‘news management’ – which just makes it so much worse.

        I gather that most of the telephone call betweem Bruin and Mrs. Janes was her expressing her anger at equipment shortages. Well, that’s a well-discussed topic here of course, and the buck stops very firmly with Bruin. Even he has to accept that.

    It’s going to be a very dirty election campaign.

    Labour have no valid defence for all the things they’ve done (and continue to do). The only approach available to them is to lie, cheat, and smear, using the BBC as their mouthpiece.

    Murdoch’s no fool though; he knows that if people have a choice of believing brown/labour, or sky/sun, they’d tend to believe sky/sun, so labour’s approach will end up making their own situation even worse.

    It’s a win-win situation for murdoch; if labour tell the truth then nobody would ever vote for labour again. If labour lie then murdoch will expose the lies and nobody will be listening to what labour say. Either way murdoch wins.

    Murdoch chose the perfect story this week; the letter and Brown’s refusal to apologise about it has turned a massive proportion of swing-voters against labour, and it showed even more people just how much labour refuse to admit when they get something wrong.

    That story and Brown’s reaction showed perfectly how labour put their own personal media-image above everything else, even if that means arguing with and lying to a beareaved relative of someone who died for the country.

    Brown argued with and lied to that poor women purely because he didn’t want to admit that he’s ever capable of making any mistakes. It was absolutely unforgiveable. Who in their right mind would ever vote for a bastard like that?

    Final comments on the main story.

    Number of issues have come to the fore.

    First is if we go to war soldiers will die.
    Second, in war shit happens, we cannot run a war based on individual events.
    Thirdly, bereaved parents are not the correct people to develop strategy.
    Fourthly, for any aprent to lose a child is a huge tragedy.
    Fifthly, did this all start in the last week, month, year, decade?

    On the specifics, will we ever know what happened and on the principle that if yer auntie had balls she would be your uncle, would extra helicopters have saved the poor guys life? Will we ever know for sure?

    This story is very much one of its time.
    The Scum is throwing its weight about with GB firmly in its sights.
    Semen and his acolytes are going to rant no matter what GB does.

    Consequently why has this death played out the way it has?
    Is it only recently that political failings have caused casualties?
    If yes then people have forgotten about Gallipolli.
    If yes people have forgotten about Dieppe.
    If yes, then why is that when in all other areas of life a “Health and Safety” culture has reduced death rates in a whole swathes of human endeavour?

    My answer is that we are only hearing about it because it suits not the grieving parent but the agenda of specific papers.

    Where was the press outcry over Suez when the paras were forced to jump without a reserve parachute?
    Where was the press outcry over Suez and the lack of carrier based performance jets?
    Where was the press outcry over the Falklands where mistakes meant that the whole fleet of Chinnooks was lost due to the Atlantic Conveyor debacle?
    Where was the press outcry over the Welsh Guards being caught onboard un protected LST’s?

    One thing for sure is that in both these conflicts squaddies bled to death on the battlefield due to a lack of medical care / enemy action. However I don’t think the issue ever made the front pages of the papers.

    All I remember about the Falklands was the promotion of Simon Weston as the only injured soldier to make the TV. Why was that?

    Given all that happened, a political failure leading to the loss of territory followed up by their retaking on a wing and prayer, surely the papers should have been full of questions over why it happened and who was responsible for the heavy loss of life?

    The issue becomes why not then and why now?

    The MOD has a long track record of failing the people on the front line.
    Consequently why is it only now that we get to hear about in terms that show that it is the politicians to blame?

    Somebody is playing games here?

    Why is there no debate about the use of MOD funds to send the sprogs of the officer corp to private schools?
    Possibly because so many in the press, or more appropriately their parents have used it to their advantage.

    Something has to give.
    We have a high cost low output Armed Forces.
    Those at the bottom are on shit money and live in shit accommodation.
    Somebody somewhere is benefitting from a culture that measures procurement in terms of decades of delay and billions of cost overruns.

    Consequently I accuse the MOD desk jockeys, the MOD middle class welfare state and British Waste of Space.

    Afghan war is bad for security, voters say says:

    The main justification offered by the Government for keeping troops in Afghanistan is rejected by the majority of British people, a new opinion poll for The Independent shows today. Four out of five of those questioned do not believe that British involvement in the conflict, with its rising toll of casualties, is keeping the streets of Britain safe from terrorist attacks.

    The findings come as senior commanders have begun warning that the next few months will see intensifying military action, and that British forces will be expected to play a full part. There is no question of British troops “retreating to safer areas”, senior Nato officials stressed.

    In direct contradiction of the Government’s position, almost half, or 46 per cent, of those surveyed held that the presence of British forces in the US-led war actually increased the threat of attacks in the country by creating anger and resentment among the Muslim population

    The “fink” has made perhaps the most direct attack yet on the nectar gathering of David Milliband , CW thinks its question is devastingly correct , having delivered lisbon via a commons majority pistol and hand over of the valuables and not by any respect of Uk democracy , kicking back the chair waiting for lisbon to kick in to make hay from , sums him up quite well .All too remiscent of being made chairman when you have betrayed your own company into the arms of the competition . CW thinks Dm doesnt really know much about anything and therefore cannot make the case for the job , he was just another Blair add on , who had found that words can bamboozle people rather than make society , and you can make plenty of money as well .

    NN was interesting in that yvettes case started to wobble as soon as paxman found the failiure within the failiure , which Therresa missed , those blair era words that come back to haunt , however Paul Masons look at the figures was interesting as it made me think how dangerous immigration was from 1985 being as we started the great delayering and into modern slim effeicent multitasking workforce , which gave us a competaive boom and began putting the finaces in order after the callaghan disaterous ending of labour .
    Yvettes case was startling in that it was ignorant of the fact that saving the banks meant a depression and that this goverment just meanderd on trying to stablise the meltdown yet keeping the fuel source going CW is convinced that Labour have wasted at least 18 months of vital time in mitigating a national diaster , it isnt so much that hoping these toxic debts would turn slightly sweeter , its the dithering and incompetance at the rate at which they could turn sweeter , and the resultant borrowings to bodge the error .
    the ruin now has created massive borrowings on top of slow sweetening of the toxic , and created a truly impossible gap for the next governemnt to try and right .

    The idea that globalisation would float all boats totally missed individual countries exposure to finance and manufacture , as some countries were clearly carrying more of the risk of globalisation than others , but Cw thinks it always did whiff of marxism hence its inability to tackle planet death pollution senario and its whacky corporate solutions .

    So is it gonna be mean and dirty ?, Cw thinks the ruin is incredibly lucky in that dumbing down has meant that people no longer know how to make pitch forks or use them and instead play it on a console, for if they did, you could almost picture this lot joing Ben Elton on an idi amin hurridly arranged special flight out of here into exile .

    Does anyone read this blog so early? Only insomniacs or persistent worriers!

    Yes I just read the Times article. I remember in the 1960s the Times stood up proud to be the “History of the future” – I even remember the billboard ad. of a microfilm (anyone else remember that?). In those days the Times was not overtly socialist from what I can remember, more a boring sort of broadsheet, with very rambling articles, but it had principles that were to my best of knowledge apolitical.

    There seems to me a sort of Griffinesque public sympathy developing for Brown out of the lettergate story, even though we would not put a blind man in charge of a train. The political correctness of this country has, I fear dimmed the eyesight of the many.

    I suppose the more erudite of us who try to keep history and politics in perspective remember the films of the Yalta conference where able bodied Churchill was humiliated by Stalin in favour of the wheel chaired Roosevelt. but we are, at length talking of a Communist dictator who was manipulating the US to get control of Eastern Europe; so even there the disability of Roosevelt could be argued to have compromised the free world for at least 40 years.

    Parties begin to move policy on Afghanistan says:

    Fresh pressure over the mission was put on the Prime Minister on Tuesday night when 19 Labour MPs backed a call for him to lead an urgent Commons debate. Among the backers of the motion is Kim Howells, chair of the Intelligence and Security Committee who dramatically broke with Government policy last week by calling for the phased withdrawal of the bulk of Britain’s military force from the country.

    Expect this to be the first of many such motions and it will get support from the backbenches of all 3 main Parties. Some now, far more every month from now on.

    To those Party Leaders going into the election without setting a withdrawall date or calling for a rethink, in the words of Admiral Ackbar, “IT’S A TRAP!”

    When Brown goes his replacement will be far more sceptical on the Afghan War. Calling for a complete withdrawall by a year or so may well become the set policy of Labour and the Lib Dems.

    Angry Englishman says:

    Labour have obviously fallen out big-time with their former mates at The Sun, and Guido’s analysis of how much it hurts seems plausible. Remember that Mandy called them “Chumps” in a fit of pique, and we still await R Wade’s phonecall recording to prove that’s what he said. Surely Labour would be better off just ignoring it, rather than rising to the bait – but the bunker mentality and Mandy’s/Campbell’s personality traits won’t let them. Brown souinds like a man who holds a grudge as well – so they are doomed to months of pointless cat-fights over every little piece of tittle tattle.

    Turning to weightier matters, I see that “Trust Me” Jack has slipped through his secret inquest rules, so watch out anyone who is on their list of undesirables.

    Finally, can someone please tell me how many additional helicopters and crews have arrived in Afghanistan this year as Ainsworth and Brown have been doing “everything possible” to get them there? What was the number on 31 Dec 2008, and what is the number now? I know of at least one that has been destroyed, so let’s just hope they have replaced that one. Surely Brown will have a good answer with this to show how he has delivered on his promise and regained our trust…………?

    You think the Mirror is bias? you should start reading the Scottish papers
    especially the Daily Record (aka Daily Retard) and the Scotsman
    The Retard continuelly supports Labour regardless of how bad Labour is and is a joke. The Scotsman have a conveyor belt of anti SNP stories kindly supplied by Labour’s press office. The Scotsmans 2 political ‘editors’ David Maddox and his side kick Peterkin exclusively put their names to anti SNP stories, which are clearly from the Labour party. Not surprisingly both papers circulation is dropping. The Herald (Glasgow based) used to be bad, until their political editor Douglas Fraser left and unsurprisingly joined BBC Scotland (which also employs his wife, another Labourite on Radio Scotland)

    You want Bias – go to Scotland and see , hear and read in spades all in favour of Labour

    Nick says:

    I heard on PM that Peter Mandleson was accusing News International of siding with the Tories in the hope/expectation of future advantage. This overlooks the efforts that New Labour (& Tony Blair in particular) made in cultivating News International, to the extent that Blair actually attended two NI conferences. In addition, according to Peter Oborne’s book ‘The Triumph of the Political Class’ the Labour spin doctor Lance Price’s book draft had to be vetted by No 10. Apparently a third of their objections to the first draft related to the mention of Rupert Murdoch’s name. I wonder why Labour would be so concerned at their top level interactions with Murdoch being revealed?

  134. Have you seen Bea Campbell?

  135. Al says:

    Is that Beatrix Campbell of that infamous leftie trio inc. Hilary Wainwright and one whose name escapes me at the moment?

    Popular with Guardian and SWP/Trotskyite types in the eighties, as I recall.

  136. looter says:

    Once seen never forgotten. What a fucking mad old bitch. What’s she done or said now?

  137. You banging the bars on my cage, GF?

    For 20 years that bitch has been fantasizing about child abuse where none existed and thus helping to split up families – all the while missing where it was really going on. She has a particularly nasty line in victimizing women, then claiming to be a feminist. When the Stasi files are opened I’m going to personally find out who nominated her for a gong (bet it was her girlfriend) and the prawn who approved it when a quick google of her name would have shown that she ought to have been put firmly in the “We’ll let you know” pile.

    Bea Campbell is madder than I am. Bea Campbell is madder than Polly. There are times when Bea Campbell makes Julie Bindel look like a model of rationality.

  138. nell says:

    I take it this is the level of the beanpea’s political debate??

    Other than griffens backyard pigs, on his welsh farm, that are named after children who were painfully murdered in hitlers Belsen, what can the hasbeenpee offer us as an electorate???

  139. Jed says:

    Nell, do you believe everything that the professional liars of Searchlight tell you or do you ever manage to think for yourself?

  140. HF says:

    Ignore her, she’s thick.

  141. nell says:

    Actually Jed I’m an Independent thinker. I don’t believe anythmmming anyone tells me.

    I go away and I research all sources before I make my mind up.

    I would most like to know WHY griffen has two pigs in his backyard named after Anne and Frank to remind him how painfully this child died in Belsen at the hands of Hitler.

    Why does he think this makes him worthy of holding public office in Britain???

  142. nell says:

    ‘ She is thick’

    That is really enlightened political debate.

    So tell me what can the Beanpea do for middle of the road people like me (middle england) to make us vote for you??

  143. jgm2 says:

    I would most like to know WHY griffen has two pigs in his backyard named after Anne and Frank to remind him how painfully this child died in Belsen at the hands of Hitler.

    Are you sure that’s true Nell?

    Surely he’d call them Abu and Hamza. Or Mohammed and Ali.

    Dissing the Jooz is so old-B&P. I thought Griffin was Nu-B&P with new improved bogiemen who even go to the trouble of actually killing British commuters on British soil. Bogiemen you can really get your teeth into (or at least pick out of the underground with tweezers) instead of some nebulous conspiracy.

  144. Jan says:

    Well Nell,if you researched so much how come you can’t even spell his name correctly???? It’s Griffin not Griffen

  145. nell says:

    If what I said was not true jmg, they would not not attack.

  146. sigh says:

    Some obsessive poster who calls herself/himself ‘nell’ seems to believe that anyone who disagrees with him/her is either a “beanpea’er” (sic) or a “Labour troll”.

    It’s no wonder it’s quiet round here at night when this idiot is posting.

  147. nell says:

    Still waiting for an explanation of those two pigs that griffen keeps in his backyard called Anne and Frank.

    When we have that explanation, we middle englanders, floating voters, the one’s who will carry the election, will make our choice.

    Go on griffen!!!

    Explain why you have named two pigs in your backyard after the sufferings of a poor little jewish girl who died a painful death at the hands of hitler in Belsen.

  148. Obama is a twat says:

    I’ve got two dog turds in my garden, one called Gordon and one called Toenails.

  149. We'll believe any old crap that's in the papers says:

    In the smear i read,it was two rottwielers.

  150. Farmer Giles? No,just the way i walk. says:

    Nells gone to bed.She’s got to get up early to milk the pigs.

  151. nell says:

    griffen and Two rottweilers hmm??

    Did he call them call Anne and Frank as well???

    Why is he going to such lengths to remind himself of the painful death of a little girl at the hands of hitler in Belsen???

  152. BRING THEM HOME says:

    Give it a rest “old timer” You are starting to repeat yourself ! Dont believe all the shit you “research” in the papers ! i am not a bnp voter but after the rigged set up on question time i did feel i wanted to hear what they had to say as did a lot of people as they wern’t given a chance on the prog . so lets wait and see what if anything they have got to say over the next 6 months without reading the shit they put in news papers !

  153. Nell's best mate,Damien says:

    Nell! I’m sorry to disappoint you,but it’s a made up story.A smear.Not one of mine.I’m more imaginative.

  154. Mr Nell says:

    It’s “Griffin” you idiot.

  155. nell says:

    Damian . I’m sorry to disappoint you but those two pigs,called Anne and Frank,do really live in griffens backyard.

    Like gordon. He really really is a sick man!!!

  156. ONCE A TORY (but not any more) says:

    Of course it will be “moderated” and thenremoved because it has the words of BEELZEBUB in its content
    But just look at this point ,since about 8 o’clock when i posted that griffin was there nearly all the posts are related to my comment but dispite this it was removed
    even though no one has posted a comment supporting him or his party

  157. I A Tollah says:

    Nell! Have you got some sort of pig obsession?FFS.Give it a rest with the pigs.This isn’t Trotterblog.

  158. ONCE A TORY (but not any more) says:

    As you, dear girl live in cuckoo land
    “it must be true” i read it in the daily mirror !

  159. The Sleeper says:

    Uh??

    Make sense or go to bed..please.

    PS..try brushing up on your grammar.

  160. nell says:

    Why would anyone post a comment to support grifffen?

    Time to go to bed Tat.

    Absolute, total and utter support for our troops in Afghanistan.

  161. Mr Nell says:

    That’s not all she wants to brush up on!

  162. nell says:

    Well go on then …..what does the beanpea party want to say about the afghanistan war??

    go on…we..middle britain ……are listening….what do you want to tell us.???!!!…

  163. Babe(Minister of Defense and Scratchings) says:

    Nick will send in a regiment of crackling troops.

  164. Trotter's Independent Traders says:

    That will stymie The Taliban.

  165. ONCE A TORY (but not any more) says:

    He could supply the british army with pigs blood
    if they fired that at them out of a paintball gun they would soon surender !

  166. nell says:

    As you say ‘It must be true’

    Griffen really does keep two pigs in his backyard which he has named ‘Anne’ and ‘Frank’ to remind him of the little girl who died a painful death in Belsen at Hitler’s hand!!

  167. nell says:

    WOW Tha Daily Mirror.

    Toilets Maguire and all that!!!!!

    Everythnig he says ‘can be believed’???!!! NOT

    You are a complete idiot!!!!!

  168. The Fenlanders. An everyday story of Tory folk says:

    Night Nell!
    Night JimBob!
    Night Nell’s cousin,Mr Nell!
    Night Jim Bob,Night Jim Bob’s pet pig!
    Oink!

  169. Gordon Brown Remembrance Day says:

    wtf!?

    You have to read
    http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/comment/columnists/melanie_reid/article6911600.ece

    “How charming to pillory disabled Gordon Brown
    No one deserves the vindictiveness being directed towards an accident-prone Prime Minister

    Forget, for a minute, that he’s the Prime Minister. Set his job aside. Let’s imagine instead that he’s G. Brown, an ordinary, partially sighted bloke a bit down on his luck who makes a mess of filling in one of his benefit forms.”

    Go on force yourselves to read it. I have to force myself to read it to the end.

    WTF!?
    Anyone would think the 11th November 2009 is “Gordon Brown Remembrance Day”.

    If this is what the UK public really think and agree with then there is absolutely NO future hope for the UK.

  170. stinky winky says:

    it is not a benefit form and Brown is the PM in charge of a country with nuclear weapons…….dozy bint

  171. I hate new Labour says:

    Good grief.

    Either his disability is no impediment to doing the job (badly), in which case don’t mention it.

    Or, his disabilities prevent him from doing the job in which case, get out and let someone else do it.

    Can’t have it both ways Brown.

    I don’t remember Blunkett being given special dispensation because he’s blind, or Prescott because he’s obese…

  172. Turfing the Web - Early Shift says:

    They’ve “transmogrified” into other aliases probably – this site is an “astroturfers paradise”.Everybody is somebody else posing as another person taking different views.There’s probably in reality really only 10 people posting on it and one of them thinks they’re not themselves anymore

  173. Mr Chips says:

    Well here is an eleventh blogger.

    I sold 192 Labour seats in a spread bet at £50 per seat at the next general election.

    Any views?

  174. Reality check says:

    Not true.

    “John is John” after all!
