Get Down to William Hill Fast
Just got £100 on Labour to win Glasgow East tonight @ 1/2. A 50% return overnight? Seems way too generous. Labour should be home easily…

Has William Hill got odds up for them losing the voters register?
only asking..
the idea that all these postal voters miraculously appeared in the last few weeks is one of the more ridiculous ones
Labour have form in Birmingham and other places for being caught red-handed at this voter fraud
a wily investigative reporter has a good story here if they dig hard enough

Electoral Fraud – It’s the right thing to do!
Nice link and article and the blog it gets info like this from is worth highlighting too
Glasgow city council has confirmed that 6,065 people have registered to vote in today’s by-election, up from 2,419 in 2005, according to The Scotsman. That’s around one tenth of eligible voters (62,475).
http://theorangepartyblog.blogspot.com/2009/11/will-postal-votes-swing-glasgow-ne.html
it appears Tebbit is succumbing ever faster to the onward rush of senility as it was UKIP he was defending only a scant few months ago
Someone remind the poor old sod which Party he is a member of
So please tell me who are the conservatives, what is it they seek to conserve other than their own fat arses?
Small goverment? what like the EU making 85% of our laws and controlling our boarders? Dave and his NWO Bilderberg global warming TAX zelots – oops sorry better rebrand the big lie climate change as global warming hasnt happend.
I think it is those who still think there is actually a Conservative party who are the senile ones.
Still carry on, if you stck your head in the sand long enough you won’t notice your children being enslaved by a fascist dictatorial undemocratic imperialistic EUSSR with the aid of a few easily bought traitors and war criminals.
Where’s a postal strike when you need one?
I wish I’d taken the bet!
Labour may have won in Glasgow NE, but they don’t have any reason to celebrate, and Brown may well be less secure now as a result…

betting is Haram
What about stoning women to death who have been raped?
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/7708169.stm
That is most pleasing to Allah, the merciful, the all-knowing. Carry on chaps.
thank fuck it’s only the muslims that produce extremist religious nutcases
you wouldn’t get George Bush executing retards and starting an illegal war based on Lies because God told him it was a good idea
Interesting. That munter who runs Islam4UK noted, when someone posted that Islam stoned rapists to death, that “no, we don’t, it’s adulterers”
That’s alright then,
By gum is it?
So what?
Bet that comes with eggs.
If they stuck a labour sticker on a pig, the bastards of Glasgow would vote for it – so probably would all the ‘ethnics’ Gordo has allowed in
what the fuck are you on about London Muslim – are you being offensive to us lesser mortals [the whites?] – oh, I get it, we MUST all be muslims so that we can go to heaven! BOLLOCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You’re so called religion is the youngest of all the religions and the most bloody dangerous!
Any conspirators know of any MOD civil servants who put their lives at risk?
If any, how many of the 50,000 I wander, it’s Posty’s justification for MOD bonuses, it’s all just piss and wind
It’s Government spin that the bonuses are shared out amongst 50,000 Civil Servants. The £300M goes to a select few.
Same as the bankers, use a few small bonuses to ordinary members of staff to justify and hide the excessive ones paid to the ones further up the food chain.
I have always opposed bonuses except for someone doing something really exceptional.
Why is it necessary to pay bonuses? Your contract of employment should state that you do a particular line of work for a paticular salary.
If you do the job well you should get praise, if you do the job badly you should be sacked.
This policy should be adopted in all departments taking public moneys starting with members of Parliament.
Guido doesn’t do conspiracies and the EU is just a trade agreement with no links to the global banker friends of the Tory and Labour leaders!!
How many MOD employees (excluding those under Queen’s Reg’s, and animals recruited to the forces) have been killed “in the line of duty”.
The total number of fearless desk-jockeys killed throughout all of history should be useful in helping to quantify the risk to which these valiant modern-day bounty-hunters are exposed.
Perhaps the nice folk at TJL Solictors, who helped an MOD typist to a £484,000.00 award for repetitive strain injury could also add some insight here…
Right on cue, an Australian black labrador, listed as “missing in action” after an ambush in Afghanistan fourteen months ago has returned to her unit to claim her “bonus”.
Or should that be Bonio?
Amazing! Dogs are amazing creatures, wish more men were like them.
do you mean able to give themselves blowjobs?
You mean you can’t?
A dog-owner is, by definition, an utter cretin.
Dogs are brave, loyal and affectionate. What have you got?
And as for cat owners.
I want a pet. But I can’t be arsed to look after it.
Why didn’t they just buy a poster of a pet then?
Cat owners?
Fucking lunatics.
You don’t know many sheep farmers, then.
We still have sheep farmers? I thought we’d driven them all out of business. Why was I not informed?
That’s aimed at Beezley, not jgm2. Cats would be damn all use herding sheep.
I’d vote for anyone who’d bring in a cat owners’ tax. Paid directly to those who don’t own cats to compensate them for having to shell out on sonic cat-scaring apparatus. Or else a law to make cat owners clear cat shit from neighbouring gardens. Fucking cats. Fucking hate them almost as much as cat owners. C’nts.
you have been a miserable bastard all day.
top boy says: CHEER UP MOTHERFUCKER.
hey, I’ve had a great idea for what would help to lift your mood, why don’t we all have a nice cup of tea?
two sugars for me please dack.
oh, and if you are making any sandwiches I won’t say no.
got any crisps?
http://www.instantrimshot.com/
Anyway, I’m off work with a very bad cold (or ‘flu’ if I was a bloke). Go and make me a fucking Lem-Sip before I slap you one.
I’m with Dack Blog on this. What we need is a bounty on Cats. The RSPB pays you (say) five quid for every cat’s head you bring in. Obviously this would only affect stray cats because responsible cat owners wouldn’t leave the fucking things to run wild and decimate the native wildlife so no responsible cat owners would object.
Just as no responsible dog owner objects if a farmer shoots some dog that’s rampaging around his sheep.
Fucking cats.
And their fucking owners.
Er, more to the point. After all these years in theatre in ‘Stan and Irak.
How many have these chancers been KIA, WIA, or MIA?
Try NONE.
And, because their accident statistics came in so good (again) this year their safety bonus pool is £300m.
Safety at the MOD. It’s very important you know. You can’t put a price on safety.
Sun fux tory twats!!

Islam Prohibits Gambling
I’ll bet you they do, though.
Islam. The religious branch of the Labour party. You can’t do this. You can’t do that.
And a single punishment for everything.
Death.
It’s like Mohammed was a horse vet in his earlier life.
Oi, Mohamed, this horse has a broken leg.
Kill it.
Oi, Mohammed, this horse has colic.
Kill it.
Oi, Mohammed, this horse won’t stand up.
Kill it.
Suddenly he’s a fucking prophet.
Oi, Mohammed, this bloke shagged my missus.
Kill them both.
Oi, Mohammed, this bloke says you’re talking shit.
Kill him.
If that’s the case, somebody needs to inform all the Gulf Princes and Iranian exiles who seem to make up the bulk of the clientele of high class casinos in London.

They are anti Labour, not anti English.
don’t contradict the window lickers
dont insult window lickers’ inteligence by trying to pretend the scotch aren’t institutionally racist – towards the English, smart arse
you’re the one whining about the Scotch you pussy
I don’t think the Scots are institutionally racist. I have never been racially abused in all my time here (nearly 14 years).
Scotch is an alcoholic drink. It is Scots or Scottish when you refer to the people. Don’t they teach you bigots anything at school?
Does getting head-butted and stabbed by a man in a skirt court?
The stab-wounds affected my spelling, read ‘count’.
Mr Pedantic of Albion, you will find the term “Scotch” used on this blog in a deliberate attempt to wind up the porridge-gargling fraternity.
Meself, I quite like the Scotch, especially at home in Scotchland, but when they come down here and start ordering me and mine around I tend to get a bit annoyed.
Bull, Scotch is a perfectly acceptable English adjective for the unfortunates from north of the border. It’s just that the Scotch themselves prefer Scottish or Scots.
Our other near neighbours from over the channel prefer Les Francais but that doesn’t stop us referring to them as French – except, of course, when we call them Frenchies, Frogs or Cheese Eating Surrender Monkeys (thanks Bart).
Cheese Eating Surrender Monkeys (thanks Bart).
If you actually watch the relevant episode it’s Groundkeeper Willie who greets the French language class as cheese eating surrender monkeys. Willie is of course a Scotchman, and I have to say seems like a top bloke.
Not a chance, places like this are locked into welfarism and everyone knows the “caring” socialists will keep them supplied with free English money, free booze and free housing.
That the dolts who live in the socialist shitholes, never question why they are such awful places, is of no surprise, the scotchers in these festering dumping grounds, have no ambition or intelligence at all.
“I am for doing good to the poor, but…I think the best way of doing good to the poor, is not making them easy in poverty, but leading or driving them out of it. I observed…that the more public provisions were made for the poor, the less they provided for themselves, and of course became poorer. And, on the contrary, the less was done for them, the more they did for themselves, and became richer.”

I’ll vouch for that, Benjie.

There was old codger on TV earlier and when asked who he will vote for today, let out a half-resigned smile to reveal missing teeth and said ‘Labour, Labour’, then went on to lament that ‘they’ should ‘do something’ for the teenagers in the neighbourhood. Has it ever crossed his mind that ‘they’ will do exactly fuck all?
Yes, but a Scotsman voting for anything but Labour/SNP is exactly like a parasitic lazy arse voting for an 06:30 alarm call, shower, early morning commute and a job to go to.
It isn’t going to fucking happen, is it?
The Conservatives used to be the dominant force in Scotland up to about the 1950’s while it was the Unionist Party
But that was before the second highland clearance when they could order their serfs to vote for them or lose the crofts.
A fried mars bar, a handful of temazies and a bottle of buckie to wash it down, is all I ask for, Jimmy.
You have to feel sorry for the poor suckers who live in those shitholes and still look up to their champagne socialist masters. Not.
Paddy Power have it at 4/7 – but Ladbrokes 1/6. Weird.
So bet Labour at Paddy P, and ABL at Ladbrokes, if you can still get the odds
only 1/8 on Betfair
1.11 on Betfair (which is more of an open market) right now. That William Hill price is a good deal!
Shit. And I was feeling quite confident before.
But Brown’s Labour Party has held the area’s seat for 74 years and is the 5-1 favourite with bookmakers to win the by-election.
if Labour can’t win there then they might as well pack up and let the Lib Dems be the opposition in May instead of them
Can’t get them by the pound anymore. Gotta be by the kilo. The EU council jobsworth will be right round to tell you the amount of your fine.

Feed the ducks and get fined £75, Daily Mail.
In the real world, I work as an SQL DBA for a company that supplies, under contract to the MoJ, postal vote verification and counting software and hardware to local authorities and regional assemblies (not saying who I work for or which councils we supply, for obvious reasons) Did you know that a returning officer can declare results on a 20% sampling of the postal votes returned? And that some results have indeed been “fudged” this way, quite legally? Only a direct challenge in the High Court would be able to obtain all the votes cast and see what the real result would have been.
Fuck me! Are you sure about this?
yes I am quite sure. For what it’s worth, i was shocked too when I found out. It’s been the law for some time now, certainly since 2006 which si when i came across it. Nobody talks about it much, I’ve probably only once seen it mentioned in the press, again about 3 years ago during the local elections postal voting fiasco in Scotland. Which i was actually working on at the time, which is how I know. It’s statute though.
to be fair, election officers are to a man, an honest bunch (very decent hard working people) and I haven’t ever been involved myself with any elections that weren’t at least declared for postals at less than 90%, but you can see, even there, there’s a significant margin for error. Most do insist on 100% or as close to, allowing for spoils and disqualifieds, but there have been some that I know of that have been declared for postals at 20%. It’s really quite beyond belief some of the legislation that’s been sneaked through over the years, and there’s worse to come (electronic counting of all votes, not just postals, it terrifies me, it really does.)
Well I know it should be a shoe-in, but given his track record as a pundit, Guido’s prediction has me worried.
Where does he get this whisper from? Pretty depressing.
Probably from the Glasgow Conservative Party. I hear he’s very nice.
They’ve been shat on for 12 years, are they asking for more?
Probably. I can think of quite a few tories with a taste for it.
Call me what you like, but I am NOT a Tory
Repent and follow me
I’d rather reload and follow you.
Mind your moral compass, boy!
It’s a manse world alright!
Aye! As a good samaritan, I will not pass by…(it is the right thing to do!!)
So do we. He’s dead.

I dont agree with this gambling stuff

No.Just cut ‘em out on the mirror,and then i’ll lay my healing hands on you.
Zo! Somesing not to be sniffed at as you English vould say, ha ha ha.
Looks like youve wasted £100 Guido as its the Glasgow North by election which is taking place today. Glasgow East was last year and Labour lost it.
It’s Glasgow North East – a messy compromise.
oops!
Is that so Jimmy?
Which bookmaker?
Durrr!!
That’s right, William Pitt.
No one under the age 50 in E. Glasgow votes Labour.
I am puzzled as to why Guido has not blogged on the MOD bonus scam. Tut, tut.
the MOD Pigging out on Fat Bonuses while soldiers struggle and borrow equipment from the American troops is certainly a big story
just not here
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/politics/defence/6550137/Alan-Johnson-defends-Ministry-of-Defence-bonuses.html
Alan Johnson says the bonuses are paid because MoD staff face the same risks as frontline troops.
Civil servants he said have to go into the frontline to develop mechanisms to protect troops from IEDs!!!!!
I’ve ceased being shocked at the barefaced lies these people tell when faced with more and more scandal.
But someone needs to tell Mr Johnson that if MoD staff are being given bonuses for developing mechanisms to keep our troops safe from IED’s it is a mockery as most of our troops who are dying are dying from IED’s – he’s clearly missed that point.
Science and technology are hardly Postman Johnson’s strong points as we have seen
He probably thinks IED’s are a venereal disease
Insanitary Exploding Dicks.
No, Insanitary Exploding Ducks.
That’s why it’s illegal to feed them.

Hertz,
No self-respecting cloggie woud speak with a German accent (let alone write with one).
You are Herr Flick and I claim my five pounds.
Only my father was cloggie as you so delikately put it, I live in Germany with my ancient German muther and am a fan of Adolf Hitler, so zere!
Maybe Mr Johnson has not missed the point but is sending the wrong people their equipment is duff, and our brave soldiers are being killed. So why are they getting a bonus. MoD has just been given a lousy report over sending faulty planes, years old that should be scrapped. What is going on.
Good point. Do the civvies heading for the war zone also have to buy their own body armour?
Maybe it should be paid for out of their bonuses, the bonuses that those serving and dying on the front line don’t get….
If the civvies get bonuses for designing shit to prevent the squaddies getting blown up why don’t the squaddies get bonuses for having to run the gauntlet?
One bonus they could give the squaddies while in a war zone is no income tax at all. I think its immoral someone fighting to protect us has to still pay to keep the labour voting Wayne and Waynetta and the little brat ‘winettes’ in fags and canned larger
A99 agreed. When I worked abroad I paid no UK income tax, why should our men not be subject to the same rules?
From memory, US servicemen in theatre pay no US taxes.
Civvies don’t design, they procure.
what is going on lizzie is that MOD bureaucrats are being paid bonuses to cut the funding of our soldiers.
that is what is going on.
which in turn means that the MOD staff are profiting from the deaths of British soldiers. the more they cut the military budget the more soldiers die from lack of kit. the bigger the MOD bonus, the more soldiers unnecessarily lose their lives.
such behaviour by the MOD bureacrats is not only immoral and illegal but also, I believe, constitutes an act of High Treason.
therefore any member of staff of the MOD who accepts a bonus payment should be considered a traitor and be treated as a profiteer of soldiers’ deaths and so should be hanged from their necks until they are dead.
and then their corpse should be thrown to the mob for baying crowd to rip the traitors’ corpses apart and then throw the traitors’ torn flesh and bones to the dogs.
all this would require the prior approval of a court, ofcourse.
[sound of gavel]
So be it.
Tat I hate to criticise, but you overlooked the bit about cutting open their bellies, pulling out their entrails with tongs, and burning them. Important to do the job properly.
Send the bastards up the front, that’s what I say, and I’ve been drinking!
Reintroduce conscription (for MoD civil servants) and reraise the Civil Service Rifles.
That’s 185,000 self-propelled IED detection devices/realistic range targets for the troops and an immediate reduction in the bonus bill.
And they think that fucking wanker is a safe pair of hands as a potential post Golum leader???
FFS……………………………….
He knows better.
And ZNL’s pathetic explanations
guess it all depends on how well they have planned the “postal votes”
Wot. With Hamid Karzai advising its a done deal.
We can say without fear or favour the Glasgow North East by-election election was 100% free and fair. Now move along, there’s nothing to see here.
I bet the odds on a thorough audit of the postal votes are very wide
you can take that for granted.
Ladies and gentlemen,boys and girls.
The polling stations are almost closed and as the Returning Officer for the constituency of Glasgow North East I hereby declare that Mr Wiliam Bain (Labour) is duly elected to serve as their M.P.
Thank you and good evening
Ah, my friend – I have taught you well. But even I did not announce the result until after the polls had closed. A detail, perhaps, but to some people, an important one.
It’s the postal votes wot won it!
No you didn’t.
http://news.scotsman.com/politics/Glasgow-North-East-byelection-Decision.5816985.jp
The Scotsman calls Glasgow North East the seat that has been allowed to go to ruin.
Decaying high rise flats, poor educational results, high levels of crime and drug abuse. High dependency on the benefit culture. No sense of community.
Michael Martin and 12 years of labour government haven’t done anything for this ‘most deprived urban area in the country’ . Why on earth then do they keep voting labour?!
They don’t, someone does the voting for them.
For the benefits!
Stockholm Syndrome – make friends with the jailer for fear of something worse.
Untill I see potographic evidence I refuse to believe you exist
Its a tribal thing. And there’s the corruption too. It will not always be like this. I am 48 and voted every time I could. Eventually I elected someone. It took me 28 years of trying.
Eventually the SNP will be the pensioner vote, and Liebour will lose because their pensioners are dead. It is inevitable. The SNP are going to win here. In my lifetime too. So today the battle is lost, but in the future the war will be won.
because they somehow convince the dumbfucks up there its all the Tories fault. Mind you if they did make an improvement that would mean they would lose a lot of their core vote and I suppose just up the immigartion totals to cover ths shortfall.
Labour writ right through them, like a stick of rock.
‘Cos they ain’t very cleva,
Poverty of ambition.
They should read up on Andrew Carnegie. Every fucking Scottish (and Geordie) kid within two hours of Dunfermline should be forced to visit the Museum to Andrew Carnegie in Dunfermline.
This was a kid who grew up with fuck all, left Scotland with fuck all, went to America and became the richest man in the world and financed the building of practically every library in the English speaking world at the time.
The Bill-fucking-Gates of his day. A real-life inspiration to every fucking child on the planet. My dad (born in Ireland) used to relate the tale of Andrew Carnegie to me. No, I didn’t turn into Bill Gates but I didn’t sit dispondently on my fucking arse thinking it wasn’t possible either.
But no. These fucking c’unts just mope around from generation to generation waiting for chumps like Speaker Martin and Gordon-fucking-Brown to loot the rest of us and build ‘em another friggin Library. And a swimming pool. And a school. And a hospital and a fucking jail on their doorstep so they can visit their kids. And supply ‘em with free money do they can piss it all up the wall on Buckfast and temazepan.
Going on about how they vote Labour ‘cos Labour is the party of the workers. When the fuckers haven’t done any work for two generations. The fucking cheek of the bastards. How dare they associate themselves with workers the lazy indolent c’unts. I’ve shit better workers than them.
these Hoons cost the taxpayer some 40 Billion the other week
or was that the Bankers?
AGAIN
I think you’ll find that was Gordon Brown who printed 40bn quid last week. Just as I predicted in September 2004.
I think you’ll find it was the enormous Bank Bailout of RBS and Lloyds that I was referring to
though the quantatitive easing was indeed another gigantic sum of cash
fully supported by George Osborne as are all future Bank of England quantatitive easing measures
innit?
++++standing ovation++++
Fucking well said that man!!!
“poor educational results” is a starter for ten ?
Poor educational input = poor educational results.
I grew up near the old BL plant in Longbridge. The kids I went to school with would revel in their idiocy and how it didn’t matter ‘cos their uncle would get them a job at ‘The Austin’. And their parents would reinforce the idiocy.
Don’t worry Darren, school neva did me any good. But it didn’t really matter ‘cos I got a job down ‘the Austin’. It’s great.
These kids are failed by their parents and failed by a Labour government that panders to their defeatist, self-perpetuating idiot creed. In fact Labour relies on such a mind-set. It is Orwellian abuse of language for Blair to bang on about ‘education, education and education’. The last thing Speaker Martin or Gordon Brown could seriously want for their constituents is that they be educated. Because there is no way on God’s earth that a constituency with an aggregate IQ greater than a fish would vote in a Labour government after the complete social and economic clusterfuck they’ve perpetrated this past 12 years.
These shirkers should have the gumption to work in a Bank so they can sponge of the taxpayer in style and at a much greater cost to the taxpayer
Or they shoud pull themselves up by their bootstraps and get everything handed to them on a silver spoon from their parents like the Eton crowd. That takes real guts and independednce
The only solution is to shove them back up chimney’s get toddlers back down pits and those who can’t make it in todays 100% employment economy should be ground up into pet-food and sold for a profit
Naaah. What they should do is vote in a Labour government that has promised an end to boom and bust. Then they can sit there and watch it rig record low interest rates to ramp up the price of houses and fuel a massive borrowing binge PLUS piss 35bn quid a year in a ‘boom’ into the economy to pay one million arseholes, bedwetters and bastards that we could easily mange without.
And then, when it all goes tits up they can blame the yanks and the banks. And, lest we forget – not blame the banks for lending them too much money soi that they’re now all in hock to their eyeballs. Fuck no.
They’re going to blame the banks because they’ve stopped fucking lending them money.
That’s what they should do.
Reckless borrowing and squandering of un-earned income got us into this shitty mess. So, what we need to do to fix this is to return to the same rate of reckless borrowing and squandering as 2007. That’ll fix it.
Jackasses.
“Reckless borrowing and squandering of un-earned income got us into this shitty mess”
Yes, it was called leveraging yourself to the hilt (40-1 anyone?) to bet on worthless Credit Default Swaps and Collaterallised Loan Obligations so they could reap hundreds of Billions in short term Bonuses while fucking their own companies and the entire economy
look it up sometime when you can tear yourself away from scapegoating the poor
and look up what Dave ever said or did to discourage the lending you seem so upset over and his many wise warning words reproaching the City that gambled on shit and lost
Brown fucked it but Dave didn’t say a peep against it when it was happening
I don’t know what Dave had to say. I do know Michael Howard got stuck into Brown one budget for his borrow and squander profligacy. I’m not Pro-Tory at this point. I’m anybody but Labour. And the Tories are the party best positioned to throw the incompetent bastards out.
I’m afraid it is that simple.
I do know that Brown ignored years of warnings from the IMF. I do know Brown deliberately changed the inflation proxy to justify even lower interest rate back in 2004/2005 in good time for the election when house prices started to flag a little.
I do know I was flagging this up on other fora for years before it all went pear-shaped. And I do know that I was hounded by Labour-party-scripted jackasses.
If I said ‘Look – this borrowing is insane’ they would come back with ‘No, it’s great that people feel so confident under a Labour government that they’re prepared to take on these levels of debt’.
I shit you not.
Prudence was officially defenestrated back in 2004.
I don’t know what the fucking banks were playing at either but countries with sensible regulators like Australia and Canada have sailed through this ‘global recession which started in America and has fuck-all to do with me Gordon Brown’.
I could even forgive Brown for his recklessness if he acknowl;edged his guilt and started to fix the problem. But what galls me to the point that my piss is boiling is that, just as he couldn’t even admit he’s spelled that dead soldiers anme wrong when it was there in black and white so he cannot admit he fucked up totally and so he’s steering the entire UK a further 18 months down the shitter out of sheer stubborness.
The equivilent would be the Tories refusing to admit defeat on Black Wednesday and continuing to pour money into propping up the pound for the next 18 months. Rather than just taking their beating.
Can you imagine Brown in the same situation?
Oh. Of course. We don’t need to imagine it.
Ah you’ve it all sussed out dont ya jgm. STOP EVERYTHING. JGM here has figured it all out!
Fuck, I bet your one of those boring preachy fuckers I always end up next when I’m trying to get a pint at the bar.
Fackin’ hell, jgm’s on fire today…..
Gordon Brown exposed as a liar and a hypocrite again, this time on immigration:
http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/geraldwarner/100016638/gordon-browns-bold-new-immigration-policy-an-aspirin-to-cure-a-pandemic/
Nobody believes a word Brown says anymore.
Au contraire, mon amigo.
MB.
Ragyed
Celebrating diversity there MB, or just schizoid?
I do.I would rather believe Brown than any Tory you could name.
Whoa… Mental !
You admit that on a public forum ?
Get well soon.
Thank you for posting that link, I found it very interesting.
As for Gordon’s statement today, that he was thinking about maybe asking some people to have a think, perhaps, about immigration, just like had said in the past he might have a think about pondering whether or not to have a discussion.. Why couldn’t the wanker just be honest and say, “I am as thick as they get and I’m going to dither. Again.” ? You wouldn’t think he’s been at least the 2nd most powerful man in the country for the last 12 years and the blame for ALL OF THIS can be placed squarely at his feet.
If he thinks his last minute comments on immigration are going to stop people voting BNP he’s got another think coming!
From what I read yesterday the stupid bugger is promising clampdowns on letting engineers, IT specialists and so on into the country.
WTF?
With the state of the British education system, the country needs to import skilled professionals. Even worse, they’re not even the problem.
The small number of educated professionals who arrive in Britain, work, pay their taxes and integrate. The people Brown should be worrying about (because they’re the ones getting the Beans ‘n’ Peas in a tizzy) are the armies of goatherders and tree dwellers who have no chance of ever working, claim everything they can and jump the housing queues (at least that’s what Mr Griffin and his chums believe).
Either Brown is a complete moron who has lost the plot or he’s simply pretending to be concerned for electoral advantage. Either way, the Hoon shouldn’t be in office.
But whats the betting that he wont have shut the loophole that allows the likes of Tata, Crap Gemini, et al from bringing in the 30 rupee a day permie crowd from Bangalore and using them to sub-contract on work over here, instead of hiring UK contractors?
Not enough kids want to do IT or engineering degrees… smacks of another 24hr soundbite that’ll not end up seeing the light of day in reality and if it does, chances are it wont fucking work
Al.
Saw this earlier but thanks,maybe McMental should write to Migrationwatch who will I am sure aquaint him with some realistic figures.
On second thoughs maybe he should phone them and not write.
Bloody hell I missed the T out of thoughts,it must be catching.
You can read the script though,election over the horizon now start telling the sheeple that you know their concerns blah: blah: blah,postman pat was the first of the cabinet with the immigration ploy I think,and now they are going to wheel out Mandelslime I believe to spin his little heart out,oh dear panic panic.
You can bet it won’t be a tory.
Why not just refuse to backstop insurance on all houses built on flood plains! That will cause a huge house price rise and provide need for a massive building program overnight.
Spam, the only thing that will cause a ‘huge house price rise’ is the return of cheap and easy credit. It was that that caused the massively inflated bubble we have now and which will implode with a vengeance once the futility of QE ends. To turn on the credit tap again we need millions of people eager to borrow recklessly and we need the return of the mortgage backed securities market.
Neither are going to happen so you can kiss the house price bubble goodbye. A conservative estimate is that UK house prices will fall 35 to 40% within 2 years. I expect it to be more than that.
Truth.
My have we not had a hell of a lot of anti-money laundering legislation over the this past 7yrs,aimed only at the common gobshite in the street of course-bankers -well their different!
2/15 on Betfair.
this place looks like it’s turning into pb.com for the night!!
One commenter there asks Evening all, is Glasgow NE counting tonight or tomorrow?
The immediate reply: They counted last night. Result embargoed til approx. 2.00 am tomorrow.
Probably not too far off the truth – go with Guido’s bet if you have much sense, but be prepared for the payout to be delayed pending judicial review!
Was it followed by a link to a cute cat picture?
Jealousy will get you nowhere.There are seats the Tories can never win so stop moaning about it.
Eh?
They don’t want it in the media for too long – especially if the result isn’t good.
The weekend’s papers will encourage people to forget.
Only &100? You can’t be that sure then.
Brown Wants Us to Watch the Ashes!
The Prime Mentalist has made his second personal call of the week, this time to Rupert Murdoch to whinge about the Sun. He followed this up by arranging for TV coverage of the Ashes to be re-admitted to the sporting “crown jewels” tomorrow, in order to deprive Sky Sports of its exclusive broadcast rights.
Can we expect another telephone transcript in the Sun?
It’s encouraging to see McDoom rates cricket so highly. This being the case, perhaps we won’t need to pay for his Sky Sports subscription any more?
The nation should be reassured: the demand for “ashes” on terrestrial TV will be met far sooner than the next visit of the Australian cricket team.
On May 6 next year, various members of the Dimbleby family will host us for live coverage of Labour being burnt to a crisp.
62.
Hope he doesn,t wish them good luck.
He’ll be long gone by the time we play the Aussies again…
2005 victory watched by 8 million, 2009 victory watched by less than 2 million, think how many kids got interested in cricket off the back of those two numbers…?
Perhaps he’ll ask Murdoch to fund a few more playing fields to replace those sold off while he was in charge.
Nice sink estates being built where once the kids played cricket and football.
Just see the Sun headline ‘We was roight, we ain’t got any blokes doing sport no more’.
Which world do you live in? Thatcher sold the playing fields not Labour. get your facts right
Try visiting the planet where Labour grants ministerial approval for the sale of hundreds of games fields since ‘97, including an extra 49 since London was awarded the Olympics.
Half right accountant. Thatcher did indeed sell playing fields. But Labour have managed to sell even more.
Because fat overweight kids will beturn into fat overweight adults and be some future governmnets problem.
Short-term political and financial gain. It’s what Labour does.
That fucking Accountant has certainly lost my business, the cretinous сunt.
Whether one agreed with it or not, the Tories made no secret of their plan to sell school playing fields.
I do seem to remember a certain Tony Blair getting elected witha promise to sell no more.
“Economy reduced to ashes”, the cricket reference was just some Freudian slip By the mentalist…….
Not so sure about the Dimbleby presence – apparently David is having trouble with his bollocks.
I’ll even buy a gallon of petrol. That should do it.
A question for the political nerds.
Which safe Labour seat has ever had a substantial increase in living standards?
..or we like’m poor and malleable.
65.
Like gorgon,s cast eyron.
I would say most of them, given the increase in benefits payments over the last 12 years – why do you think they are safe Labour seats?
Is Guido having a larf. ZanuLibor can be laid @1.18 on BF!!! Lets c a copy of yar bet Mr Fawkes or has Graham Sharpe bought you for a nifty!
Wazza
Yep, got over the counter in William Hill.
Just think about, if you’d have put 10 grand on, you’d be 5 grand better off.
A million grand and you’d be 500k grand better off.
Good evening, Mr Darling.
No chance you got 1/2. It was 1/7 across the board this morning.
doesn’t make as good a story though and the aim was to look for a any kind of tenuous positive in a Labour win

Why Dimbleby will be giving bullocks a wide berth
He has been a Question Time stalwart, seeing ‘heavyweights’ like Nick Griffin and Kelvin MacKenzie in the process. But David Dimbleby is tonight missing his first edition in more than 15 years after he finally met his match: a bullock, which injured him in a “farming accident.”
Mr Dimbleby, who is 71, needed stitches after the beast reared, knocking him out and cutting his head as he loaded it on a trailer at his Sussex farm. “Trust my wife’s bullock to take me out. I’ll be giving bullocks a wide berth in future,” said the presenter
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/why-dimbleby-will-be-giving-bullocks-a-wide-berth-1819606.html
And giving party-line bollocks a wide berth by not chairing QT.
Highly intelligent animals, bullocks. Well, this one, anyway.
What a leftie prude.
More like he got rogered by the bull and needed stitches, then couldn’t walk to the chaffeur driven motorcade that takes him the Stasi Broadcasting Corp.
Yea right – so how come Cap Gemimi is employing temporary SAP programmers from India to work
on the Welsh Water contract in Port Talbot ?
‘cos SAP programmers here are like hen’s teeth, and work for GBP800-1000 a day. They’re all self employed and earn as much as they do because there’s a severe shortage of that particular skillset.
Indians will do the same work for a bit (!) less than that… This is what controlled immigration is actually supposed to be about, even though it disadvantages those here by reducing their rather high day rates.
Steve (same industry, different skillset unfortunately)
SAP is shit anyway…never known an SAP installation work properly or efficiently from the start.
Always takes a year for the bugs to be ironed out..and even then it’s still shit.
Maybe, but those guys who earned shitloads putting it in, still get to earn shitloads more sorting it out!!
Good for you if that’s what you do…
http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2009/nov/12/mandelson-politician-of-the-year
This should cheer you all up. mandy awarded ‘ Politician of the Year’ title with the judges saying he is ‘the undisputed alpha male of the westminster village’!!!!!
Poor gordon will be so disappointed they never gave the award to him.
Shouldn’t a politician first be elected before anyone can comment positively on his achievement?
As Labour’s “alpha male”, Lord Mandelson of Rio will enjoy exclusive mating rights.
Not for the first time, I’m glad I’m not David Milliband…
Commented on this on Facebook. I nominated Gordon Brown as “Prime Minister Of The Year”. In the face of stiff competition, as it were.
Surely that competition is between Mandleson and Cameron?
Who is this ‘Brown” that you speak of…?
“Another of Gordon Brown’s lieutenants, the Labour deputy leader, Harriet Harman, was named parliamentarian of the year – a rare accolade for any minister let alone a leader of the Commons.
She was praised not only for taking on and, in the judges’ view, beating William Hague while standing in at prime minister’s question time but for steering equality laws through the house.”
These are definitely not Mickey Mouse awards then, that’s for fucking sure.
Don’t feed me what ever you do!
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1227188/Mother-fined-75-feeding-ducks-officious-warden-says-toddler-son-hes-young-prosecute.html
She’s unfortunately not as adept at steering her car. but of course we know where to find her…
To 143.
I know were i,d like to find Harperson but good manners prevent me saying it here with ladies present.
She is also adept at telling bare faced lies in the house ie her answer to the question concerning Fred the Shreds Knighthood
Alpha male? Shouldn’t that be “half a male”?
Guido, who’s the Tim Harris chappie that has a mention in your ‘Seen Elsewhere’ section? Are you saying that Tom is a Tim?

The Labour rats are out in force on The mail site again
For example the question ’should innocent teenagers DNA be kept for 6 years’ received a yes vote of 21%
Uh?
21% is the immigrant population?
OT – Guardian Alan Travis (Current)
At the same time, the extension of the points-based system to the 130,000 people who apply for a British passport each year will mean much tougher “citizenship tests”, including questions on British history. Immigration lawyers have speculated that this could include questions about the difference between the European court of justice and the European court of human rights, but also questions about the controversial role in Britain’s imperial past of figures such as Winston Churchill and Oliver Cromwell.
the sooner these fuckers in government are gone the better.
Arseholes all of them and knowing thay are going to lose they crate as much mayhem as they can. If you thought it was mad and bad now just wait another 6 months and you will be dreaming of these days.
Gordon Brown: “Local workers will be given additional opportunities to secure available jobs”

Too right matey, we don’t want these whitey British workshy bastard kids taking our fucking benefits, innit?
If it wasn’t so terrible it would be laughable.
This is the dilema socialists always find themselves in.
Educate the masses at it’s like asking turkeys voting for Xmas. Don’t educate the masses and the powers that be remain in power (until the revolution when everybody suffers).
Why oh why don’t the poor sods in Glasgow see the light and vote their masters out?
It will be a disaster for tourism in Glasgow if labour lose, former east Germans are being encouraged by Glasgow city cooncil to come and visit any labour constituancy in jockland to remind them of the socialist horrors they used to live under, ahhh the nostalga
On the William Hill site Glasgow East (currently SNP) is 1/2 to go Labour at the next General Election. That’s probably what Guido has accidentally bet on.
I’m going with the space pig next year.
Yeah, the by-election’s Glasgow North East. Not Glasgow East.
Tonight in a packed commuter train (because the service was as often is, delayed), a large mid thirties suited oik starts telling another commuter who had done nothing wrong to “piss off”.
When asked why he spoke to people like that his response was “piss off twice”.
The oik had red rims to his eyes as if pissed.
What is the relevance of this story? It is that the “society” is like a tinder box at the moment.
Everybody is terrified with worry over money anxieties. No job security, a hopeless, useless, bloated public sector, and elected representatives who fail to listen.
This country is going down the pan.
Everywhere in urban areas it looks like a third world, no English spoken and dodgy dealings abound.
Have a good evening
Well that’s a let-down. The least we wanted to hear there was that the oik in question was Damian McBride, and that you’d lamped him one and flung him out of the train whilst it was crossing a deep, cold, fast-flowing river to general cheers and applause from your fellow commuters.
But no, just another whinge.
Look on the bright side – when the country hits 70 million and slides into civil war at least we’ll be able to frag the fucking MPs with little to no chance of being caught.
They will all have gone to their nice homes in Tuscany.
“Labour should be home easily…”
Oh..I dunno so much these days…
I know working-class Glasgow very well (being one myself), and I reckon if Labour do it, then it will only be by default, since most folk are mainly interested in surviving day to day and don’t watch many political programmes, or are even particularly interested in political yak.
They will vote Labour mainly because their parents and grandparents did so in the past IMO.
The SNP have more of a traditional Labour agenda now IMO and I think they get it across better.
So let’s see anyway!
It would be a disaster if they couldn’t even hold THAT!
Au contraire. It will be a triumph if they can’t even hold that.
To 161.
They have a fine example of what they voted for in the past in Gorbals.
A few postal votes should ensure a labour victory!
British Airways to be renamed and rebadged as Spanish Airways.

Oh good, look it has been pouring with rain.
The plebs don’t like voting when its wet….
It wasn’t raining last week when I posted 2,000 proxy votes. All Labour.
Well done, you may kiss Mandy’s ring.
Oh good, the Post Office was on strike so your Commie proxies won’t arrive. The brown envelopes will all be opened by the the thieving posties looking for cash.
Instead they’ll see Mahmood and his 72 virgins are voting Labour again
The by-election’s Glasgow North East…you sure you got the right constituency?! Might explain the nice odds.
Got odds of 5-1 of the SNP winning
Stuck an tenner on it.
Not bad value on a two horse race……………..
lets be honest here……
this is the party of Gordon Brown were talking about.
You and Guido should pool your resources. If he bet £100 and you bet £25 the other, you are guaranteed a £25 profit between you providing Smeaton doesn’t come through on the blind side.
For years these dummies in Places like Glasgow NE have voted Labour and the place is still a shithole. I just think that they are so fecking stupid they can’t see that labour is the cause of the problem not the solution. Either that or they couldn’t be arsed to do a days work and vote anyone so long as the giro turns up.
If Labour were the solution, how after 12 years in governmment has it actually got worse? No doubt they have all trooped in and voted Labour again today well they will get what they vote for which is just more of the same.
I think they’re rewarding Labour for sending the odd immigrant up there to be stabbed to death. Keeps the old knife skills in trim.
Maybe the smart ones and the ambitious ones have all left. Went to a real university, joined up, whatever. Why wouldn’t they? Possibly what remains is a gene pool with a median IQ of 70 and a few unfortunates who missed the boat.
Welcome to Wales, Liverpool and the other 180 constituancies that vote Labour and are shite
Labour confident of victory in Glasgow North East by-election
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/politics/scotland/6555850/Labour-confident-of-victory-in-Glasgow-North-East-by-election.html
Part of the report states….
“Despite the furore over the expenses scandal that prompted him to stand down, loyalty to him and Labour runs deep in large pockets of the seat, one of the most impoverished in the country.”
Turkeys Christmas etc? Depressing for them I would have thought as nothing will change and Labour will ensure they remain impovershised with no hope as it suits their ends. No difference in the last 12 years so they will just use them as a political football when convenient and certainly after next June. I think such places should just now be abandoned and fenced off. If they are that fucking stupid they just don’t deserve any more sympathy or cash.
Dynamiting their houses while they’re down at an old firm match or watching it on SKY down the pub would be the greatest single act of kindness any government could do.
Because if you forced the indolent fuckers to move away from their self-reinforcing cesspool of negativity they might meet people with actual jobs and actual ambition and some of it might actually rub off.
Sterilise them and move them into ‘camps’!!
then we can work on a final solution for all those others who dare offend me

well, here is an idea for you: if you go to bed now you can avoid all that self inflicted bad stuff from happening and you can avoid making a c’unt of yourself tonight. in short, you can show the reader you are not just a sneaky lying tory wanker but that you do have some self control and you are not just a tribal tory propagandist whore.

Clearly a nell impersonator, and a very poor one at that.
The result was in this morning after they counted those 50,000 postal votes for Labour.
And the total electorate is only 49,500….

Aye. And with the astronomic levels of incapacity benefit and long-term disability benefit the entire place should be fenced off by the WHO. If that kind of level of infectious malingering spread to the general population we’d all die of starvation.
And not because we wouldn’t be able to afford to buy food but because we’d be too fucking lazy to answer the door to let the Meals-on-Wheels lady in.
Hahahahaha!

I blame Gordon.
then why did Scottish Labour lose the election and it’s an SNP executive ruling there ?
if it’s even remotely close tonight in one of the safest seats Labour has and has held for 74 years it means the Labour Party in Scotland is in terminal decline
The British just love to slag each other off, while our country is fast going down the pan thanks to the machinations of our corrupt ruling elite.
Are you particularly drunk this evening? It’s a Scottish by-election so obviously the fucking malingerers are going to be Scottish. If it was in Newcastle then the fucking malingerers would be English.

90% of these people weren’t bone-idle, dole-scrounging layabouts 12 years ago.
12 years of Labour govt have corrupted and degraded sections of the working class who have been ruined by the benefits culture and replaced by immigrants in the jobs market.
there are no malingerers who vote Conservative
ever
many Bank Executives, City spongers and MOD civil servants assure me of the truth of this
so does The Sun
90% of these people weren’t bone-idle, dole-scrounging layabouts 12 years ago.
I think you’ll find they probably were.
jgm2
If you believe that then you clearly have no idea of the changes that have taken place in many working class communities inc Glasgow and the NE, over the past 12 years.
Some places had succumbed to the benefits culture already back then but it has spread hugely under Labour particularly among school leavers, many of whom go straight onto benefits with no intention of even looking for work even when there are jobs on the doorstep.
Such behaviour was far less prevalent 12 years ago.
Anyone who can’t see the degradation and corruption wrought on sections of the working class by years of Labour policies, must be very naive.
hmm
Who will be the first Labour Minister to claim that the Glasgow NE election result shows that ordinary voters trust Labour ,and that it was a crushing result for the Tories?
Balls is my guess.
I’m guessing it will be an affirmation of the Labour Party of the working-class values that has made Labour the party of the hard-working families across Britain.
And it will be Jack Straw.
The Labour Minister for Propaganda,Toenails Robinson, is my guess.
Good call!

Mandy named as “alpha-male of the year”. You couldn’t make it up!

Tom Levitt (Labour) to stand down
“The last six months have been torrid. Rightly, MPs have suffered collective as well as individual criticism for the scandalous mess of parliamentary allowances. Steps are now being taken to stop MPs deciding on our own expenses, pay and conditions ever again. This is the right thing to do. We need to demonstrate that a line has been drawn. New levels of transparency, compliance and enforcement can restore confidence in Parliament and the democratic system.
No Tom. Hefty fines, lengthy prison sentences, forfeiture of pension and barring from public office might restore confidence. Allowing you fuckers to ‘move on’ and spend more time with your generous pay-offs and pension scheme does not ‘restore confidence’.
Do you see the difference?
Disarray in the White House as dithering Obama faces his very own Suez debacle:
“Tomorrow’s Independent claims there are bitter divisions in the Obama camp over Afghanistan policy as the US president rejects all four options presented to him for increasing troops.”
He met Jonah he should be worried they all should be worried. The old rubber glove is no protection against the jinx you know.
A “shitehole” inhabited by dole scrounging , cross dressing alcoholics.
Most of you will know that I usually choose not to use the language of the gutter, but fuck !!!!
Why the Kuntting hell do we tolerate these thieving cock stones?
We bail out their shite banks, send their evil spawn to university for fuck all whilst bankrupting our own children
Fuck Invading Iran,
Invade Scotland Kill most of them then lets get some Yids over who know a thing or two about building a big fuck off wall that keeps the sheep shagging wankers away from us
Its what they deserve
Hadrian
You fucked up
And yes its really me
The answer to why Labour will win is very simple really.
Glasgow North East has just about the highest level of benefits dependency in the UK and who is the party who dish out more benefits than any other party? LABOUR of course.
The SNP never had a chance because they want to do away with the benefits culture.
This theory that Labours vote is comprised of dole bludgers is bollocks.In my experience most professional layabouts,and i meet plenty,don’t bother to vote.They work on the theory that they’ll get on with their business whoevers in government.After all,Thatcher put millions on benefits,but had the grace to leave them in peace to sort out their little scams and bunts,without putting any pressure on them to get a job,unlike Labour’s present blitz on the idle. The turnout in areas of high benefit claimants is usually below the national average.
There is one teeny flaw in that argument though. If the Labour core vote genuinely was ‘hard-working families’ and the bludgers genuinely did not vote (in any meaningful numbers) then Labour has absolutely no economic or electoral reason for paying the idle fuckers in anything other than foodstamps. To be redeemed in person. At Morrisons.
Genuine, hard-working working-class families must be puking atthe thought of supporting several million work-shy bastards who are too good to do the minimum wage jobs that the Chinese will share a shipping container with 100 total strangers to do.
How many middle class,liberal minded,professionals vote Labour?Look at the media,health and education.How many hard working family men and women vote Labour?The Unions.How many pensioners vote Labour?In the belief that only they will protect their pensions.
Benefit claimants as a whole,do not turn out en mass to vote.
“Benefit claimants as a whole,do not turn out en mass to vote.”
Of course they don’t but why let the truth get in the way of a scape-goating rant ?
Now you’ve got me depressed. The thought that middle class professionals and genuine hard-working families would vote for this shower of shit after they presided over the biggest economic clusterfuck since records began just chills me to the core.
You could be right though. I can see that teachers might vote Labour. And nurses too. And ll those one million ‘middle class professional’ bedwetters, diversity co-ordinators, arseholes and bastards recruited since 2001. And I know their recruitment has been targetted into tradiotional Labour areas.
Oh my God.
We are even more fucked than I dared imagine.
jg… I’m sure I’ve said this numerous times – I wouldn’t vote Labour and know of only one Labour supporting teacher at my school. Few of them trust the Tories either, granted – but New Labour have few friends left on the front line of education, in my (relevant) experience.
The Labour meltdown of 1979 in fairness was not entirely their fault.That decade had seen great industrial and social decay. Am i right in saying we had 5 elections in just over ten years? The memory dims with age,but it was a roller coaster ride that led to disaster.However,this government has had virtually unopposed total control for twelve years and has pulled off a political spectacular on a par with the fall of the Roman empire or Adolfs farewell concert.
It’s hard to see future historians not using this example as a classic study in failure.
You have said it before and I take some small crumb of comfort from it.
however,this government has had virtually unopposed total control for twelve years and has pulled off a political spectacular on a par with the fall of the Roman empire or Adolfs farewell concert.
And therein lies the tragedy. They had a free run at it for 12 years. They couldn’t blame having to make compromises or cut deals with coalition partners or internal dissenters.
They inherited a balanced and growing economy. They had enormous public goodwill. There was no devisive class-war undertones.
Politically, socially and economically it couldn’t get more perfect.
And they completely fucked it up. They lost control of the economy, they destroyed our socail cohesion, they got us involved in not one but two wars – at least one of them for purely political reasons, they reignited the class war by spending more parliamentary time trying to piss off ‘toff’ fox-hunters than they did considering the Iraq war, the began the process of breaking up the UK in the belief that while they’d eventullay lose the UK election they’d always have Scotland to practice their idiot policies in.
In short it has been a 12 year masterclass in devisiveness, disingenuity and utter incompetence. It’s been like Lord of the Flies – like letting some adolescents loose with A-bombs and a printing press.
It’s been a fucking disaster.
And all Labour have to say for themselves is. It’s not our fault. It’s the yanks. It’s the banks.
Risible.
And do you know the biggest joke of all?
In fifteen,ten or God forgive,even five years time,they’ll be back.
Genuine, hard-working working-class families must be puking at the thought of supporting work-shy bastards
They do, which is why they loathe Politicians and Bankers
Respect!
Here’s a live blog from Glasgow NE. It’s a low turnout so the result could be around midnight or sooner:
http://www.snptacticalvoting.com/2009/11/glasgow-north-east-live-blog.html
Looks like Labour’s postal votes racket has pipped the SNP to the post.
The battle for third place looks interesting!
You’ll lose your 100 quid.
I think the years of drug-taking have taken a toll on Will Self. He looks like he’s just emerged from a coffin. And he’s wearing a mid-life crisis jacket.
Five arseholes and an audience of cretins.
Could almost be X factor.
Has Dimbleby still got his head stuck up a cow’s arse?
No, that’s his face.
He was right about the fucksup incentives culture though. Pay a reasonable wage and get rid of those who aren’t up to the job. Not losing your job should be incentive enough.
…but the public sector don’t have it in them to sack anyone just for being incompetent.
Hopefully the coming clearout will sort the wheat from the chaff – in the private sector you either swim or you sink, why should you get a bonus for not fucking up?
I agree. As a public sector worker I’m not blind to the problems. I’d love to see the incompetents thrown out of my workplace. But the sun shining out of the arse of the private sector is bullshit. Fucking hell we’ve just spent billions bailing out the private sector, and little/no accountability. Privatisation of previously public services hasn’t turned out to be the promised land in many cases. I don’t blindly defend the public sector just because I work in it. A bit of balance and a reality check would be good from both ’sides’.
Unfortunately,lots of the rabid right wingers seem to believe that public sector workers are all PC obsessed scum.Just because a man emptying your dustbin doesn’t require a high intellectual capacity doesn’t make him any less of a key worker and member of society,than the doctor or dare i say politician.
DB, I agree with you to a point.
A certain sector may have been bailed out in the last year, but the vast majority of the private sector are staring at redundancies (I was without work for 6 months) and pay cuts – while some of those employed by us go on strike because their pay rise wasn’t high enough!
I’ve seen both public and private sectors. Both contain dedicated, hard-working people, and both contain incompetents and malingerers. The difference seems to be that whilst many (not all) companies in the private sector cannot afford to ‘carry passengers’ – and consequently doesn’t, the public sector (again – not always) is often prepared to tolerate them. Also, there tends to be more direction in the private sector, because a profit has to be turned, but fatter bureaucracies in the public sector tend to slow things down, and tend to breed tasks that would not be regarded as essential in the private sector (e.g. the oft-quoted ‘diversity co-ordinators’ etc).
Some do, yes. But tarring a whole sector with the same brush isn’t (if you don’t mind me saying) very intelligent. Anyway, not all said strikes are about pay. I’m sure some in the private sector would be justified in withdrawing their labour in some circumstances, but then unions are not allowed/encouraged for that very reason. I’ve worked about half and half in the public and private sectors, so I do have experience of both, and neither was ‘all good’ nor ‘all bad’.
A lot of the bureaucracy,health and safety,diversity monitors and the like,is down to the litigious nature of our legal system.How many cases do you see of people sueing public bodies over often perceived injustice?Trip on a paving slab?Turned down for promotion because you’re a c’unt?Where there’s blame,there’s a claim.
Yep- he is looking a bit rough. Still managed to spear Pauline Neville Jones though. I prefer Humphries to Dimbleby.
I find Humph unbearably smug.
I fid him more incisive and less partisan than Dimbleby.
Humphreys is a complete prick on Mastermind when he reads back the passed question answers in a voice that suggests the contestant was a retarded spud for not knowing the answer, you are reading them off a card yourself, tit.
Agreed.
He’s ok on Today show, but he’s too confrontational and full of himself to be chair on QT.
He thinks the show is all about him and doesn’t give anyone else a look in.
The william hill bet is for the general election
not tonight
check the closing time on your tick
Bunch of cnuts the lot of them. Standby chairman doing a pretty good job so far though…
http://newsnetscotland.blogspot.com/2009/11/glasgow-north-east-surge-in-postal.html
The Dead have spoken: “Labour ‘gain’”.
Another Glenrothes?
Huge spike in postal votes in the past few days. Most of them are for Labour:
http://www.northtoleith.com/2009/11/some-postal-facts.html
Don’t write off the SNP just yet! ;-)
From the Indy….
“”Lord Mandelson was dubbed the “undisputed alpha male of the Westminster village” today after scooping one of the top accolades at a Westminster awards ceremony. “”
Not much good being the Alpha Male unless you spawn some sprogs!
I reckon The Sun are polishing their silver bullet as we speak….
QT
More banal than ever…
Brown has brought the country to its knees. Humphreys gives us half an hour of twaddle about the PM’s handwriting. FFS
Pauline Neville is quite hopeless. Dave needs to ditch her ASAP.
It’s official. Labour have turned the UK into a scrounger’s paradise:
“1.2 million households get £15,000 in benefits
More than one million households in Britain are receiving more than £15,000 in benefits every year – double the number since Labour came to power, official figures have revealed.”
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/politics/6555759/1.2-million-households-get-15000-in-benefits.html
How many are called Jimmy I wonder?
That is 5% of households are addicts to Labour.
Are there any words in the English language more beautiful than “Labour Gain”? I think not.
I’d almost forgotten how good those words sound
I hope you’ve got a good memory. You may need it in a few months time.
“Are there any words in the English language more beautiful than “Labour Gain”? I think not.
I’d almost forgotten how good those words sound”
And indeed completely WRONG
If they win it will be Labour HOLD
They can hardly fucking Gain a seat they’ve held on to for 74 years
Piss-Poor spinning Jimmy
Not at all. As I’m sure all the students of the constitution here will point out, the seat was previously held by the Speaker, who is non-party, hence those magical words [drum roll]: “Labour Gain”.
What a load of old tosh.
Please arrange these words into a well known phrase or saying…
straws at clutching.
We’ll gloss over Martin’s gross incompetence, piggish expenses, bringing Parliament into disrepute and being a shameful disgrace to the area and those honest working class men and women who work their way up from the bottom
Did Michael Martin first win the seat as a Labour MP ?
Yes or No Jimmy
stop wriggling, spinning and hiding behind a technicality jimmy
it’s most undignified
No. Michael Martin has never won this seat as a Labour MP.
General Election 1997: Glasgow Springburn
Winner – Labour Michael John Martin 22,534
General Election 1992: Glasgow Springburn
Winner – Labour Michael John Martin 20,369
General Election 1987: Glasgow Springburn
Winner – Labour Michael John Martin 25,617
General Election 1983: Glasgow Springburn
Winner – Labour Michael John Martin 22,481
General Election 1979: Glasgow Springburn
Winner – Labour Michael John Martin 18,871
Fuck off Jimmy
and spin Labour holding onto one of the safest seats they have and one they’ve held for 74 years as some kind of glorious victory somewhere where the very gullible and simple-minded might fall for it
Brown’s out the fucking door in May. Buh Bye!
I know it, you know it, everyone knows it
Unless you have another weaseling technicality to hide behind ?
The name of seat being contested last night was Glasgow North East, first contested in 2005.
ps. I’d just like to say “Labour Gain!” again.
Labour Gain!
“Unless you have another weaseling technicality to hide behind ?”
“The name of seat being contested last night was Glasgow North East”
I’m just embarrassed for you now Jimmy
stop making such a complete fool of yourself it’s fucking toe-curling
P.S. I’d just like to say Buh Bye Brown again
Buh Bye Brown!
‘Labour Loss’?
Oh. They already did. 800bn quid at last count.
Careless.
and the Bankers had nothing to do with that did they?
Careless.
I’m afraid blaming the bankers is mere parrotting of Labour deflection propaganda.
Did you not see those ads they put on before the last election to try and encourage folk to vote? People giving it ‘I’m not interested in politics…’ and then finding nobody would talk to them about any subject because, guess what, politics touches practically every aspect of our lives?
Do you remember? Well that’s what we have here. If the banks were lending money recklessly to the point where it could crash the entire economic well-being of the UK then where was the government while all this was going on?
Massive boom in consumer indebtedness going on. The IMF warning them regularly about the levels of government deficit and consumer indebtedness and they (the government) simply ignored it?
Why do you think that was?
Incompetence? Recklessness? Stubborness? Political expediency?
All of the above?
No, blaming the Bankers is placing balme squarely where it lies
The public know this so why you would try and shill and excuse these greedy sacks of shit is anyones guess
Brown’s an incompetent cun’t for getting into bed with them and doing everything they wanted while turning his back on actually regulating the Square mile branch of Gamblers Anonymous so he could reap the growth and ask no questions about it’s long term viability
But Dave and the other Conservative leaders said sweet fuck all about properly regulating them or slowing down growth or unaffordable consumer spending while it was happening either. Did they ?
They weren’t the Government so they rightly don’t take the electoral hit
but it proves they were as clueless as Brown
High credit levels were just a small part of this
The orgy of Bonus hunting reckless gambling on CDS and CLOs was what turned it into far more than a mere downturn and into the worst recession in decades
You can blame Brown for failing to reign in the excess and you’d be right
but you can’t excuse the Bankers and City from their clear culpablilty
jgm2 just to really depress you,some will vote Labour simply because they paid £200,000 for a house in Brum and cant pay the mortgage without crack, sorry tax credits (its hard to know which is the more addictive)
Methinks Labour see the IMF as a social welfare club for nations!
Ever heard of a false Dawn Jimmy? A right little prick teaser.
Comrades, this is the turning point.
How did the Bully do?
Whoops. Bully to finish behind B&P. Lost deposit?
So sad.
They could pin a red rosette to a turd and still win…….oh, wait a minute, that’s what they actually did the dirty fuckers!
sad that they had to rig the vote with postal fraud isn’t it ?
Update: B&P neck and neck with the Bully – Guidophiles in “split down the middle” shock!
Yeah, looks like you’ve fallen for the auld bitch you dopey twat.
Not half as sweet as “Labour Loss”, excepy maybe “Labour in Opposition”
“Gordon Brown died suddenly”
Reply to 379
Question Time. Why don’t they just put up a load of hand puppets and call it The Muppet Show?
Don’t bother watching it then. Stick to Strictly Come X Factoring.
Fuck off Miss Piggy.
Aw chr*st.
We thought He was gone.
“Sun exploited mother of soldier Janes”
A certain A Campbell is on This Week, now.
Campbell spinning “How can they (being us) beleive McDoom did it deleberately to upset Her”.
Tw*t, we never said it was deliberate, we just think He’s a useless sociapath that doesn’t care.
Turnout in Glasgow is down approximately 15%, only approx 30% turnout so Labour on a low turnout, no great win then…………..turnout in 2005 was 45.8%.
The lowest turnout apparently in a scottish westminister election ever. Good luck spinning that one, Labour.
I have heard unsubstantiated that Labour has won only by about 2000 votes compared to a majority of 10500, in 2005.
lol.
And an extra 4,000+ postal votes.
Funny that eh?
The Glasgow East result is a reflection on the stupidity of the electorate that live there. For no other reason than a sense of shame about why the by-election came about a vote for anyone other than the labour candidate was needed This would speak volumes and send a strong message but hey that is just pure wishful thinking on my part.
Cannot disagree there.
It appears that the voting for labour gene is well entrenched in that particular population.
Obviously theyre stupid fucks to keep voting to be held down, but hey, fuck em, they seem to like getting jammed in the ass by “the party” so long may it continue i say.
Some people never learn, never, the labour voters of glasgow east are testament to the total interbred idiocy thats inherent within them.
Voting to keep being assfucked and taxed and kept in poverty whilst their “betters” keep on raking in the cash.
Michael martins just loving his wealth and position now and you dumb twats voted to keep it going…still, youre paying for it, you can fucking eat it, dont choke now…….
But there was discomfort among all the mainstream political parties at the Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre, with early reports suggesting the (party we cannot name) had clinched third place.
This is despite the Conservatives dispatching a series of shadow Cabinet heavyweights to the constituency, including David Cameron and George Osborne. Ruth Davidson, the Tory candidate, was also perceived to have run a strong campaign.
Furious Tory and Labour sources claimed the BBC were to blame for providing the party with unprecedented exposure.
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/politics/scotland/6557627/Labour-wins-Glasgow-North-East-by-election-as-SNP-concedes.html
The conservatives are never going to score high in this seat, if they did, i’d die of shock.
The conservatives would NEVER win Glasgow East. The issue from the beginning was whether the SNP could pull off something but clearly they have lost support and that would worry Salmond. There is a few seats up for grabs come the GE and the Lib/Dems will fight hard to get them from labour and SNP.
It’s not all bad news then. If Labour can’t get out the vote in Glasgow then nationally they are completely fucked.
It makes the Glenrothes result even more suspicious if turnout is so low this time though.
Nick Griffins lot have beaten the Tories, the LibDems, and the Greens by the sound of things.
Perhaps the SNP would beat Labour if it weren’t for the postal votes scam?
can someone please in Glasgow go and kick that gobshite Jim murphy in the head and tell his annoying ass to shut up.
Turnout is 33%, absolutely woeful.
So much for the dole bludgers vote being strong.
so you can compare, this was 2005.
Speaker Michael Martin 15,153 53.3 -13.8
SNP J John McLaughlin 5,019 17.7 -0.5
Socialist Labour Doris Kelly 4,036 14.2 N/A
Scottish Socialist Graham Campbell 1,402 4.9 -3.2
Scottish Unionist Daniel Houston 1,266 4.5 +0.3
BNP Scott McLean 920 3.2 N/A
Independent Joe Chambers 622 2.2 N/A
Majority 10,134 35.7
Turnout 28,418 45.8 +1.9
They’re all shitting themselves on the beeb that the beenpers may have come third.
What Larks!
tough titty chum
Fatboy lost his deposit and came 4th
how sad
ALISTAIR CAMPBELL!!!!!
“How callous the Sun was… how vicious the Sun was…”
How about leaving a boy to bleed to death in the dirt — legs gone, hand gone, face blown to bits — BECAUSE THERE WASN’T A FUCKING HELICOPTER DUE TO CUTS! How vicious and callous it that Campbell?
Campbell is a burnt-out, alcoholic psychopath. It’s a sign of how low this country has been dragged to that creatures like him are presented on mainstream TV as political commentators.
and he supports Burnley and never mention the word Kelly!
How about starting an entire war based on a complete lie. How vicious was that?
The BBC NuLab wank breaths are in overdrive tonite – ‘Gordon’ this, ‘Gordon’ that.’.ain’t the Sun a bitch picking on poor Gordon’ etc etc. Please God let the Tories grow some balls and cut the BBC’s funding off at the knees when they get into power…but I’m not holding my breath.
A Campbell is a smug,smarmy thug.
His performance on This Week showed him up a this…”The Sun was evil blah blah”..yes,perhaps.
“The Tories have a contract with The Sun” etc etc etc
But when Portillo mugged him over his own abuse of the media, when it didn’t do as agreed,did you see his eyes darken..then he duffed up Diane Abbott.
No doubt he knows hows to manipulate,as he admitted when saying..”I can persuade people that Labour won’t lose”.
BUT YOU WERE THE ARCHITECT OF WMD..YOU MANIPULATIVE BASTARD.THAT’S WHY YOU ARE HATED BY THE PUBLIC.
Campbell squirms as Howard calls him a liar but does not deny the accusation.
That video is an excellent demonstration of how gracious tories are in defeat.
Widdecombe had his number.
it’s an excellent demonstration of a war criminal too
does the death of Dr Kelly keep you awake at nights you despicable cun’t ?
You think I’m Andrew Gilligan? Bizarre.
They’ve now have wassherface from R4’s womans hour saying that she wont be able to keep her lunch down if the Sun don’t stop berating the great leader.
F*cking Hell.
What part of ballanced politics in the broadcasting code don’t the BBC get?
And so tasteful of the programme producers to juxtapose the Remembrance of the carnage, past and ongoing, with fatso Murray stirring a pan of raw meat.
They are psychopaths.
Very true Susie.
They needed meat for the shot and not vedge, as to a beeboid, that would be seen as cannibalism.
Alistar Cambell had a nose full of coke!
OT but has anyone seen the front page of ‘The Sun’ yet? Can’t find it anywhere. I’m wondering if they’re being coy about a pant-downed blonde exclusive – could it be a Labour chap? (Are there any blondes)?
You’re right, it’s absent. Even Sky News front pages doesn’t have it.
You might be onto something.
maybe the sun is going to drop a labour bombshell to kill off the glasgow win. Be so funny, Brown would be fuming.
My guess would be they are waiting for the result of Glasgow East. Strange because its clear Labour will win and really never in doubt. Maybe it could be about third place and the BNP showing which might be big news!
In other news, Beeboids are reporting a 7000 majority for Zanu in Glasgow.
Maybe an early election from their positive results? we can but hope.
positive, its majority is down in a die in the wool labour dead red stronghold.
lets face it, its Glasgow North East, that seat could have a labour guy go out and shit on the constituents heads and they’d still vote for him.
Labour did and then made him a Lord
“Voter turnout has been confirmed as 33.2%. It has also emerged that police are investigating two alleged incidents of voting fraud in the contest.
Turnout is the lowest of any Westminster by-election in Scotland.
It has been predicted the British National Party will take third place.”
Glasgow North East Results
Labour – 12,231 votes (59.39%)
SNP – 4,120 votes (20%)
Tory – 1,075 votes (5.22%)
BNP – 1,013 votes (4.92%)
Solidarity – 794 votes (3.86%)
Lib Dems – 474 votes (2.30%)
Total votes cast – 20,595
Voter turnout – 32.97%
Rejected ballots – 43
Funny watching Zanu and their mates at Pravda trying to spin this as a great victory for Labour. If Glasgow North East ever became close then Labour would really be in trouble. The locals would vote for a corrupt half-wit in a red banner and come to think of it they did with Michael Martin all these years. A predictable win for Labour.
This is really a census of the number of self-declared thick mugs there are in Glasgow North East.
So now we know – 12,231.
Pity you only had a ton on, Guido!
The result cannot really have been in any doubt;a traditionally Labour seat,one of the poorest in the country;massive increase in registration of postal votes; if Labour lost this one even with the SNP snapping at their heels it would be catastrophic for the party with the likelihood of them holding less than 100 seats after an election. Interesting for the fact that the BeanNpee came close to overtaking the Tory vote. Labour has real problems in their “traditional areas” with this party hence Gordon’s “new” immigration stance yesterday
Interesting as the result is and no doubt Labour and its “Master’s Voice” the BBC will be trumpetting it as a “famous victory” – the general election will not be won in Scotland.The Midlands where there are significant numbers of marginal will I predict will go Tory in droves as will some parts of the North AND what about Wales where strangely the Tory vote is starting to worrry sitting Labour politicians.
Labour may hang on to Scotland but it’s unlikely they’ll hang on in England and Wales
Pravda spinning this morning “the Labour majority was far higher than expected”.
Not, “Labour hold onto seat with a majority reduced by 20%”.
It’s going to get messy running into the GE, methinks…..
Postal votes. Dontcha just love ‘em?
12231 – 4120 LEIB – SNP
1075 – 1013 CON – B&P
Funny how most newspapers bottled it even to announce these raw statistics.
Both main parties narrowly avoided a bloodied nose in such a low (33%) turnout.
Is this also a conspiracy?
No!
DRINKS ON GUIDO!
The william hill odds were for the next election dumbdumbs
Odd how they paid out for me then….
Good info here about Glasgow East…
“around half of the working-age population of the constituency are without work, many of them in receipt of invalidity or disability benefit.” http://www.wsws.org/articles/2008/jul2008/glas-j24.shtml
Thats the Labour voters then.
These thick scots would vote for a bucket of shit if it had a red rosette.
They did before – Michael Martin…
Perhaps getting free prescriptions , free university places, free care for the elderly and god knows what else ( courtesy of us despised english ) could have something to do with the result ? or am i being cynical.
