Lord Lamont told ITV News…
“I think the PM is just human and Ed Balls is a pretty irritating person”
It should have had piano wire and not rope.
Fair point, but difficult to illustrate.
The government launched HPN2 – that is Hung Parliament Narrative Number 2, only this morning.
HPN1 has faded. So this is the next attempt to prepare your expectations.
some of the base notes have quite thick wire!
Can I be the hang man?
Join the queue,it stretches for several hundred miles up the A1.
Bankers – Hedge Fund Managers first, MP’s second
Climate changer/warmists/fundamentalists.
Oh for f**k sake….
…. if the electorate buy this anti-banker shit it’ll be the most succesful propaganda coup of recent times….
… for those who are hard of understanding:
1) Brown wanted the financial services boom to pay for his spending
2) Brown praised the City for its creativity
3) Brown (and Balls) neutered the Bank of England supervisory role
4) Brown courted the Scottish bankers
5) Brown ignored the IMF warnings on debt
6) Brown set the inflation targets excluding housing
7) Brown allowed consumer debt to balloon in order to perpetuate growth into 2007 for the GE that never was
… and so on.
The attack on bankers is the mother of all distractions…. do not fall for it.
Rexel, seconded. The reason the UK is in a worse position than any other G20 country has nothing to do with “middle class gredy bankers” and everything to do with the shit government and governance over the past 12 years – they borrowed money in the boom and now have nothing left on the credit card.
IMF to knock on the door in 3,2,1…
More than 1,000 bankers are paid £1m every year (…but just don’t ask who they are)
More than 1,000 City workers are paid £1million or more a year.
The admission by Sir David Walker, whose report into banks and pay was published this week, lifts the lid on the extraordinary salaries and bonuses enjoyed in the Square Mile.
The 69-year-old, who is a senior adviser to U.S. investment giant Morgan Stanley, was asked how many City workers take home a seven-figure pay package every year.
Sir David said he had not calculated the exact figure, but added: ‘Well over 1,000 [are paid £1million] and maybe many more in the City.’
His admission comes just days after recommendations made in his report were attacked for failing to tackle a City pay culture regarded by many to be excessive and grossly unfair.
He also shied away from demanding that banks name all individuals paid more than £ 1million.
Instead, companies will have to disclose how many of their employees earn this sum, without revealing their names.
Lord Oakeshott, Liberal Democrat Treasury spokesman, said: ‘Walker Talker was his old City nickname before he became Sir David. Now we see why. This is about damage limitation on the City’s image, not real disclosure.’
Lord Oakeshott said he believed at least 5,000 bankers could be taking home pay packets of more than £1million.
Under pressure: Canary Wharf is home to banks such as Morgan Stanley, Barclays and Citi Bank. City workers are expected to receive a bumper bonus payout this year
‘Four years ago, about 3,000 London bankers were getting bonuses of £1million. Now it is survival of the fattest, the banks bailed out by taxpayers are coining it so there may easily be at least 5,000 millionaire bankers this year.’

Damn right! This is just a means of diverting public attention away from the vicissitudes of Brown and his acolytes. His whole term of office in Treasury has been a complete charade. He has done untold damage to this country. Why does he expect bankers (or anyone else for that matter) to display the moral standards which he and his colleagues have calculatedly and deliberately trashed for a decade?
Agreed. Brown is trying to distract us by blaming a few tiny sprats in banking terms, when the real enemy are the huge international central banking dynasties ruled by the elite banking families. These are the people who create money out of thin air to loan into circulation at interest. These are the people who pull the politician’s and media’s and international corporatocratic strings.
Money is not the enemy, but the fractional reserve banking of fiat money is. This is what turns money from a useful tool of the many to the enslaver of entire societies.
Kilometers please, didn’t you go to diversity reeducation? Miles are racist and sexist and we must be more welcoming of those who wish to change our country.
Kilometres, even.
And the A23
No, that would be a Strung Parliament
Don’t forget the Brown Broadcasting Corporation. Today it’s Labour’s ‘efficiency savings’ v Tory ‘Chainsaw cuts’.
Anything announced by NuLiebour is for the sole purpose of getting a quick headline, and will usually have been announced several times before because they think that we are all idiots. It never seems to occur to them that a ‘saving’ of £9bn here and £4bn there is just confirming the fact that it was NuLiebour profligacy and waste that set up this situation in the first place.
I heard yesterday that they are paving the way for the cancellation of the £12,000,000,000 NHS computer system. And who was it who tried to set this up in the first place, and who ignored all of the advice and warning signs that it would never work?
There is nothing as expensive as the vanity of arrogant and stupid politicians.
The best efficiency cuts will be the ones round Brown’s grotty throat with a very blunt kitchen knife.
Not a fan then.
No… A fan is not as efficient as the kitchen knife.
Understatement
Oh yes, the Biased Broadcasting Corporation.
They got absolutely tanked on their have your say climate change over the weekend, with 1,500 comments still stuck in moderation whilst they try to work out how they manipulate the feedback.
http://newsforums.bbc.co.uk/nol/thread.jspa?sortBy=2&forumID=7310&edition=1&ttl=20091207085110&#paginator
Obviously that hasn’t worked, so they’ve tucked that away and come up with some Mickey Mouse survey and stuck it on the front page.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/8396512.stm
“Concern is rising about climate change around the world, according to a poll by GlobeScam for the BBC.”
They had some stupid Green mong on LBC this morning saying 3,000 people die a year in London according to “health experts”. Nick Ferrari just turned around and said “I simply don’t believe you” followed by caller after caller saying it was all a lie.
I was encouraged further when Joan Ruddock Liebour MP, Lewisham (Minister of State, Department of Energy and Climate Change) came on and said the reason the Copenhagen Climate Conference was taking 12 days because “it was a complex process”.
Ferrari turned around and said: “What, more complex than invading Europe in the Normandy landings?”
She then, naturally, took the on-message stance of saying that the leaked emails were from just one small group of scientist and this didn’t distract from the other scientists who all agree with the proof of AGW (despite the Hadley CRU “results” being the foundation of the majority of the papers produced on AGW “proof”).
Once again, I was encouraged by the fact all the callers afterwards just said it was a cynical way by politicians around the world to raise even more taxes.
Keep going people, the message is getting out there.
Yes, Liar Burne was on Radio 5 claiming that Liebour will save billions sacking some senior civil servants and Nicki Campbell swallowed it hook line and sinker.
If you sacked every senior civil servant you’d only save a few hundred million.
If all these civil servants are now extraneous, why are they getting rid of them only now, rather than several years ago?
They aren’t getting rid of them, they simply shuffle them round, give them a new name and tell the bbc not to mention it for a year or so, jobs a good’un.
The cuts Labour have so far announced only amount to 12bn. It’s a drop in the ocean. Like I’ve said before, the REAL pain won’t begin until AFTER the election. But it’s in none of these fuckers interests (Brown/Camerhoon/Clegg) to be honest about the scale of cuts necessary. It’s simply too scary for anyone to openly contemplate.
Taxes are going up.
Cuts alone won’t cut it.
There’s a reason all of the Parties flee in terror when asked to rule tax rises out.
Taxes will go up, but revenue will go down. These fools never learn.
12 billion? They need more than 10 times that amount to balance the books. The next 10 – 20 years looks very very grim.
We need to create a flexible, dynamic economy based on overseas trade to bring money into the UK.
No chance of that happening whilst we remain in the EU. This country is slowly being economically suffocated.
Sacking all the un-necessary pen pushers would only save a billion or so in salaries, but it could save many times that in the unnecessary bureaucracy that they manufacture.
Looks like the mutant offspring of Guido and Old Holborn with his mask on, en route to shake society to its foundations on 5th Nov
There is a striking resemblance… perhaps it’s a subliminal message
Thanks, MotCO, I was wondering who it was meant to be (again).
Though I think you’ll find both the gentlemen you mention are somewhat portly.
Unless Richard Branson is going to be manning the barricades, leading the peasants in their revolt
Me? Portly? Cheeky Hoon
I’m buying shares in a rope factory.
hey get on the green agenda Blad recycle the rope, more than one hanging a day for each noose surely.
Too slow. Try Zyklon B. Proven effective.
I have written to my local college asking if there is a night school course to learn how to be an Executioner.
There is a grant ,funded by the relatives of Mr Pierrepoint although evidently you need to provide your own rope.
We will use cheap rope from China
Made in labour camps from the prisoners own hair !
Spoken by a Hedge Fun Manager?
Just think that a hung Parliament is actually OK in the longer run. It will be the absolute end of Marxism dressed as Socialism. Because there is no doubt that the current incumbents are all tainted by full blown Communist affiliations. The money has run out, and but for the overhang in the Financial System, this administration would never have been able to justify extraordinary measures currently deployed.
Brown is writing out cheques, the English can no longer afford.
O/T Please Mr Fawkes can you limit the entity variously known as TaT, Mr Slaters Parrot, and Master Baiter. It is entirely possible that this IP address (Probably located at NuLabour Spin Machine HQ) has used many other NDP’s. Or the individual(s) is/are extremely mentally ill.
A-AAAAAUUURRKK! (tweet) ONYERBIKE! BALDIE!!! MAGGIEMAGGIEMAGGIE!!! SKRAWKK!!!
Postal Voting should tip the balance in Labour’s favour. The ballot papers are already printed, marked, and counted.
Vote Labour YOUR benefits depend on it .
I think i’ll go to the dentist and laugh while he drills my tooth !
They’ll all get away with it. Even the fuckers that are booted out at the GE will walk away smiling. All this posturing comes to shite. The scum will walk away laughing.
Ah, but they will have no police protection when they are kicked out – ha ha ha.
I can see some of these pieces of excrement being lynched in the coming years.
Lynched in the coming years? I doubt if it’ll take that long. There are so many compromised Labour ex cabinet ministers floating around that finding a target of opportunity is going to be relatively easy, especially if the Police are otherwise occupied quelling riots.
Yep the fuckers think they have it all stitched up in their favour dont they?
The three big parties more than happy to bank on the fact that people will vote for them rather than ‘waste their vote’ on a small party.
The political parasite class rely on their rigged polls,bent client media,rigged postal votes, yes oh yes, the bastards think they are home dry dont they?
But there is hope despite the field being rigged in the parasite classes favour, more and more people are waking upto the betrayal and stunning reality that the treacherous liblabcon are in fact one and the same, they can lie to us and cheat us, they can bully us and manipulate us, they can use us and betray us but in the end they will fail when ordinary people stand up and say NO MORE.
The political parasite class think they have won?
How long before we have to shell out for converting ALL mp’s houses into “ECO” homes
To show us all that they are leading the way ?
It is the right thing to do.
I’ve already got the contract, from the Labour minister responsible. And I know it will go well because I’m employing him as corporate affairs director after the election.
I’d be happy to convert them to rubble for you.
After watching Nulab hang itself so convincingly it now gives me much satisfaction to see the Tories wobbling towards the same gilbert.
The people of the UK (those that are interested) are not as stupid as they look.
Now we have Belize sleaze Lord Mickey Ashcroft in the spotlight over UK taxes, his generous contributions to the Tory party under threat.
Not one Tory has the guts to say outright “HE is not paying UK taxes!
He is “forfilling his obligations” they whine.
Not paying then!
Same old sleaze same old Tories.
The Tory peer is ploughing millions of pounds into marginal constituencies and has been tipped for a foreign affairs role if the Tories win power.
Lord Ashcroft’s largesse is paying political dividends, a poll for The Daily Telegraph recently highlighted the Tories streaking ahead in key marginals where the money has been directed.
As all his “affairs are on foreign shores” He is some sort of expert !
Gilbert? Green gilbert?
Or d’ye mean gibbet?
ty yes, apologies all around
Gordon Brown – you are hereby found guilty of treason against England
You will be taken from here to a nearby lamp post where you shall be hung by a very thin wire until you are no longer gurning.
Next!
Ah…. Balls,I see you tried to change your name to Zebedee in the hope we run out of lamp posts by the time we get to the end of the alphabet – fear not,we have more than enough for you and your thugs.
Next!
Does anyone think Brown will actually go out and meet We,The People during the election campaign?
I reckon he will be filmed in friendly rent a mobs,like that bizarre East End (West Ham?) hall meeting fronted by the ghastly Harman that he went to shortly after becoming the only PM to be booed by British war veterans in Arromanches.
I am always amazed how people shake his hand when he visits factories etc – especially as they will be bust within days of his visit.
I am going to buy some curtains (re; Selly Oak Hospital experience) and keep them with me in a rucksack,just in case I bump in to him and his bodyguards.
There’s no way that Broon’s penniless party are going to be able to stage manage an event every day for the six weeks of the campaign.
Maybe the campaign managers have realised that his gurning mug on telly every night banging on about the “Tory Toffs” might not be a good thing for his re-election chances?
Make sure it’s a short drop we want to have the satisfaction of seeing them suffer!
Yes, and no relatives allowed nearby to cling on to their ankles and thereby hasten the process. Let’s maximise the value of this spectacle and sell the rights to Sky TV. Profits to go to disabled ex-servicemen – victims of Brown’s illegal war.
That Robin Hood is a rascal – off to catch the Sherrif with a rope! Only missing the bow and arrow.
Good Morning
Wife tells her husband “Yesterday you acted like a jerk at the party and insulted your boss”
Husband: “Oh piss on that sick fuck”
Wife “You did. And he fired your candy ass”
Husband “Oh fuck him”
Wife “I did, you can go back to work from Monday”
And?
Laugh ? I thought I’d never start.
The ignoble Lord Ashcroft is back in the news. I am assured on very high tory advice (ha!) he has fulifilled all his undertakings.
What bloody undertakings are those then?
The Burial of NuLiebour?
What would you like them to be, dear boy?
Rich and Mark.
Poor, Poor stuff.
Again.
Who do we hang first?
My top 10
Bliar and his bitch
Campbell
The one eyed mong
Both Milibands (treat them as one)
Harperson
Lord Fondelbum
Toenails
Sir Michael Shite
Toilets
Marr
Forget hanging – too decent for these crooks.
How about locking the 10 of them in a room with a gun and nine bullets.
Last one standing gets to leave the room (and go to the gallows).
Remember Idi Amin and the sledgehammer? Poetic justice in that.
Too quick.
10 MPs
10 shovels
one bullet.
Whoever finishes their grave first gets to suck the bullet – the losers buried alive.
I like that, but there is a tiny flaw in that plan. Only 10 MP’s? I was thinking more like 600+
Why not send them to the front line in Afghanistan
Make them front each patrol wearing snow shoes and A rucksack full of bricks doing a morris dance ?
Blair’s bitch?
Call me Dave
Bankers
Hedge Fund Managers
That’ll do for now.
You forgot the FSA. Now just who set that up?
What about Smith, McNulty, Hoon, Scotland, Straw? These people have become extremely rich at our expense!
Pedantic- we don”t need a hung Parliament- we need a hanged Parliament.
at last, being well hanged is not the same as being well hung; and for all the piano wire enthusiasts out there, just try cutting and bending the stuff, rope is far easier on the hands and can be obtained at any DIY shop or builders merchants….. piano wire is found mostly in pianos. There is probably agreement that we are more likely to find a DIY shop on a street than a piano.
But do any of the serfs educated under NuLabor know what DIY stands for?
You could try ringing Top Gear – they should have plenty of wrecked pianos around.
Now we know where Tiger has gone to – after some free Danish pastries!
Hope theve got a few “Cream Puffs” For Mangledbum !
In around 10 years time when the history of the past 12 years or so is duly considered the big question will be;
” WHY on earth did the people of the UK not rise up and string the bastards up?”
ANSWER: Cos they were all too busy watching “I’m a Celebrity Big Brother X Factor Contestant normally seen in Eastenders but guest starring in “Corrie” and appearing in the next Strictly Come Dancing Series ??
The Whole Fucking Infrastructure of our country has been “Dumbed Down” And We fell for it ! All part of the EU master plan to get the “BizBum” treaty through !
Now Come The Revolution, Those Bastards Responsable I want to see swinging in the breeze !
I have been saying this for months and months on here but I get shouted down that we need to let Brown be thrashed out of office in an election.
I am ready to take to the streets to help save this country – our children’s children will be calling it the greatest scandal of all,that we never rose up and evicted these scum.
Did our ancestors die in world wars just for Brown and his excrement to ruin our once great country?
Action must be taken.
” WHY on earth did the people of the UK not rise up and string the bastards up?”
When the effects of their policies and the measures required to close the gaping hole in our finances, becomes apparent, then the real action will start.
It will get very bad, very quickly and the clowns in all three main parties, will be fair game first.
Indeed. If you are getting hundreds of folk from EDL and UAF turning up for a toe-to-toe in Nottingham in the winter then you get a feel for how big that will get when the weather improves.
They’ll need the army back from the ST*N just to maintain order on the streets. Who can say how much of that is being driven by agent provocateurs to allow Brown to invoke the Civil Contingencies Act but I don’t suppose Labour are that bothered about rioting if it gives ‘em an excuse to cling to power.
I think the Military should take over for a few years and clean out the Shit House that is “The HoC” !
After all they serve the Queen Not A bunch of c*nts who are there just to see how much they can Steal from us !
It won’t be too long before our troops will be serving the EU instead of the Queen, and from what I have seen of most modern service people, and their dumbed-down, cosy, politically correct, soft training, there won’t be too many of those troops who will complain. They will blindly follow orders as trained.
You don’t get military training anymore, at least nothing compared to what was dished out 30 odd years ago. 24 weeks hard, character building basic training even to work in the stores. Nowadays? 12 weeks of political indoctrination and a bit of P.E.!!!
When one of our serving seamen was captured by the Iranians, and had his ipod confiscated and started crying? Oh FFS!
The powers that be do not want any effective troops left to join the rebellion. The few decent one’s we have left are being sacrificed in Helmand and the rest will be too weak to stand up to the NATO troops currently being trained overseas for domestic clearances.
They want to rid the world of the useless eaters and our military will not stop them!
Sadly, I agree. People seem unable to realise that history shows us that freedoms are won by violent uprising and maintained by the same. Democratic process gets corrupted which results in the erosion of our freedom.
These bastards have stolen our money, lied to us, committed our young people to unjust wars and destroyed our economy. In the great scheme of things, taking fewer than a thousand lives, far fewer than have died due to the evil workings of Blair, Brown, Campbell and their criminal followers, would set an example that would keep the political classes on their toes for a few decades.
Yes but no.
Parliament matters less and less. Post-Copenhagen they won’t even let it have a rubber stamp, as extracting rubber is harmful to the environment.
The magnitude of the lies and chicanery exposed by both Climategate AND the global mainstream media’s two-week veto on talking about it knocks silly squabbles in our own backyard into a cocked hat. Someone or something had enough pull to gag the world’s press for a fortnight. Interesting eh? But then of course, someone or something realised that the blogs were talking about ti *anyway*, and that media silence left a gap that we were filling; hence, the sudden turnaround. The story didn’t change, the facts hadn’t changed, yet it moved from nowhere, to #1 story on the BBC news.
My one consolation in all this tinfoil hattery is that today, Gordon Brown has weighed in solidly on the side of the AGW scammers, ranting against “anti-change” activists. Eh? So, the Curse will save us!
Maybe.
I don’t like this. It’s the scariest shit I’ve ever come across. I dont’ like being forced to believe in global conspiracies.
I am in my mid ’40′s and like you I actually sense the sinister plot one used to read in a thriller novel.
It’s almost as if the world is catching up with the plot.
To watch the extreme emotion of these climate changers on TV when anyone dares to ask if perhaps the whole thing is being exaggerated a little – its incredible to watch them and this emotion can only be driven by financial incentives.
Of course the criminal Brown loves it so he can raise yet more taxes – one might as well drive up the motorway throwing £20 notes out of your window.
It would be fifties, but people are hoarding them apparently, because they do not trust the banks.
As for the climate changers, I am sick of them calling me a climate change denier, just because I recognise that climate has changed naturally, by far greater and more rapid extremes, in the past without man’s help or interference.
They are the ones denying any possibility that the climate now changes naturally. or that there is no evidence of abnormal catastrophic change happening now.
You get used to it after a while. When the evidence piles up so high that the lies told by the mainstream media in the pursuit of their gloabl agenda cannot come close to appearing plausible, then the truth is all we have left. It is damned scary at first though.
The realisation that David Icke speaks more truth than the BBC does is a real shitter. OK not everything he claims is true and he does have some batshit insane ideas, but more and more of the global control grid conspiracy is being implemented every day.
We are NOW living under an unelected dictator in Brussels, the Magna Carta obsolete as the EU now has a legal personality and as this article: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/comment/ambroseevans_pritchard/6744787/Its-a-return-to-the-Star-Chamber-as-Europe-finally-tramples-Magna-Carta-into-the-dust.html makes clear, the EU supreme court can decide for itself and places EU law paramount above any of our quaint ancient documents.
As we have witnessed, this month, the establishment of a Europe wide single nation led by a dictator, This very day we see the start of a meeting in Copenhagen to establish a new global government and its negotiations to create a framework to control all life. Carbon being the basis of all life on this planet, if you control carbon, you control life.
These machinations of an international elite are the core of what Icke and his “tin-hat” brethren have been warning us about for years.
batshit insane
You might do well to prepare for the world to get a whole lot madder then.
Indeed!
Have to agree, when Brown called me a “flat earther” it made my blood boil but I was soon calmed when reminded of the Brown curse – in fact I had a bit of a chuckle
Matched in the last week by the BBC’s complete failure to mention the fact that the US Federal Reserve chairman, Ben Bernanke completely trashed the Maximum Imbeciles flagship regulatory chairman in Congress.
Not a mention – apart from Stephanie wots-er-face buried deep in the sub-menus.
Brown trashed by Fed chairman isnt big news it seems. Brown’s ineffectual, job-creating, boxticking shower of fuckwits and wasters at the FSA clueless on how to deal with Northern Rock just not news at all.
As you say Frank it is not uplifting to realise that maybe those you had dismissed as swivel-eyed loons were onto something after all. The BBC really is an enemy of the people. The scales only fell from my eyes when the bank bailout was reported as ‘Failure of capitalism – failure of Thatcherism’.
They might as well have reported it as a failure of Cromwell for all the relevance Thatcher and capitalism had to Brown’s economic fuckwittery.
It is a global conspiracy. I never used to believe it either, but one day, presented with another piece of evidence – I think it was learning that editors of FT and WSJ attended Bilderberg, yet their own papers said it was a conspiracy theory, I decided to start acting like a grown up and face the harsh truth.
I saw another mainstream journalist have the same journey as he started by writing a left-wing piss-take in the Guardian. He was a free-lance journalist, not an insider and he was writing a daily diary of the Bilderberg meeting in Greece. The week started as any other arrogant prose taking the piss out of tin-hat conspiracy nutters.
However, as the week went on, and he was followed and stopped and searched and detained by conference security staff, and as he spoke to some of the real investigators and some of the staff at the main conference hotel, he changed his tune completely. I don’t think the guardian published the last of the diary pieces.
I think I remember his articles – at the end of the week he was genuinely in fear for his life. I mean, you can’t read this stuff and then dismiss it as tin-foil hat conspiracy any more!
We dont need anymore “Rubber Stamps” You can use half a potato make a stamp then after use wash it under the tap and cook it for your tea !
I’m not sure that it is a global conspiracy. I suspect that it’s more likely to be a global cock-up.
After half a lifetime of studying the climate and watching global temperatures rise, some of the scientists involved finally managed to persuade influential politicians that they believe that the world has a major problem. The scientists probably sincerely believed that, and probably still do. A problem arose for them over the last decade as temperatures seemed to have stabilised and then dropped a little, but by now the political bandwagon is rolling on the AGW theory (and note – it’s a theory, not a proven, indisputable fact). So quite a few scientists’ credibility is at stake. If they now say “Oops, sorry chaps, panic over” they destroy their credibility with the politicians, and possibly quite a lot of funding.
What is the climate going to do next? Despite all the forecasts, it’s already confounded science (or at any rate, some of the scientific community) by having the temerity to cool down a bit. What it does next is anybody’s guess. Unfortunately, the scientists who got their forecasts a bit wrong are the ones with the ears of politicians at the moment. Wiser political heads are still sceptical, along with some informed scientists. The whole thing is just a massive cock-up – nobody intended to mislead, up until world cooling started to occur. Then perhaps, some were so committed to what they were espousing that they became blind to contradictory evidence.
Let us hope that the wiser voices prevail at Copenhagen, and the world does’t commit itself to panic measures that will inevitably hurt the poorest most.
Global cock-up is certainly reassuring, but, the actions of Al Gore in planning cap and trade exchanges with the help of Enron suggest conspiracy.
Sorry Engineer, I disagree. What worries me is that this climate conspiracy is just one of several playing on the world stage. There are reports that the Russians were behind the leaks of the climate data and emails from the CRU. This suggests that there may be at least two flavours of Communist insurrection in contention.
It does not bear too much thinking about what is going to happen when several different factions start to get violent over what form of communist world government should be imposed. One thing is certain – it will have no beneficial effect for ordinary people.
Sadly, I am again drawn to conclude that we should rise up now and simply take power from this vile and inept government. Giving the trappings of power to Call Me Dave will not answer, either. He is a Blair clone and if he has the same moral code we are in grave peril.
Furthermore, I believe that the people should make it clear that we will not be ruled by an unelected European government which, despite what many say, is fundamentally communist in that it seems determined to remove all individual freedoms.
The Unipolarists Vs the Multipolarists. Blair was (is) a committed unipolarist. He wants a single global government. America and the EU are similarly inclined. There is much machination within the head of this group as to who will ultimately take control. The big two being the Rothschilds (backers of the CO2 climate con) and the Rockefellers (Backers of the international war on terror) Both being international conspiracies to defraud the public of their rights, freedoms and ultimately, their lives.
Russia and China have prominent multi-polarists in senior positions. They would like to see a global government, but not a single entity, more a federal collection of dominant states, controlling the planet. After all there is no room for a strong Russia or China at the head of the Unipolar world order. They are reserved for The Rothschild Family.
The dragon’s golden penis will brook no rival.
When you start taking the word of Jesus, sorry, Lizardman Icke remotely seriuosly it’s time to seek medical attention because you have gone well WELL over the fucking edge
The far right has lost it’s marbles since Bush.
RELAX
Here’s a thought, born out of a particularly merry drinking session over the weekend. The idea is simple – “don’t vote for MP’s”. All MP’s are guilty of the summers corruption exposure – the ones not caught red handed stood by watching their pledge to put the public first flush away for fear of their parties whistleblower justice. So you vote for anyone you like as long as they haven’t been an MP in the last 4 years. Just imagine the country doing that! Loud and clear message from the public with a clean sweep to boot – no protracted legislation needed, no false “apologies” accepted – and for once it really is “all within the rules”!
Fantastic idea. My local MP is stepping down anyway, so that has removed the possibility of anyone voting for this incumbent. BUT there are plenty of people still stupid and deeply conditioned into voting for the same party.
Do not vote for the LabLibCon trick ever again.
Break their hold and we can regain our freedom.
I don’t know why we are blaming The Broons for all this – didn’t it syart with Tony Bliar?
The Broons are such pillocks for wanting to take over from the ‘Getoutquick Kid’
Like every retarded jock, the one eyed mong wants to destroy England. He should be given the William Wallace treatment. Chop his bollocks off and then drag the bastard around London before sticking his head on a pole on the gates of London. I was going to suggest sticking the pole up his arse, but mongy would enjoy that.
and then drive every Scot up beyond Hadrians Wall to create a new kind of flood defence.
I dunno It doesn’t need that sort of extreme action as an excuse not to visit London
Surely Cameron – or anyone else – must be stark raving mad to want to become PM after Brown?
It’s only going to be shit followed by more shit every day for the next decade – I would only take the job if I was paid £100M,per day.
DC will be very quickly either made or broken. His first job will be to massively cut spending, with the associated job losses and ecomomic impact, probably a fair few tax rises too.
He then has to hope that he can get things back under control in time for tax cuts running into an election in 2015 (full term) or can have an external intervention in his favour – such at Thatcher got with the Falklands in 1982/3
Bob Crow and his imbeciles-in-arms are just itching for that. The problem we have with Brown is that he lies about how bad the economy is and seeks to destroy opposition with his divide-and-conquer class war but buried in the treasury statements are measures that amount to a 10% cut in spending in any case. Same as Cameron.
But the real problem is that if the Maxcimum Imbecile was elected I don’t believe for one second he would make even those modest and necessary cuts. They’re simply there to give his governmnet some international credibility and to allow him to pretend to be prudent so that the IMF doesn’t pour too much shit on him prior to the election. Not that the BBC would report it if he did. But if by some terrible electoral slight of hand the Labour jackasses were re-elected I’d expect them to immediately decide that actually, the right thing to do, would be to continue borrowing and printing even greater amounts of cash.
Brown is a one trick pony. Borrow and squander.
Taxes are going up not down.
Find me where Osborne or Darling rule out tax rises.
Think they are doing that to deliberately lose votes or because they know they’ll have to ?
It did start with Blair, All conceived on the playing fields of Fettes no doubt! Fucking toff bastard!
A factory who make hairdryers have just had to recall the latest model due to faulty parts causing the hairydryer not to work properly.
Statement from bosses at the company state “its a terrible blow”
“its a terrible blow”
Apparently so is Mandelson.
Brown’s blathering on about something on Sky right now. Fortunately, the sound is so bad I can’t hear what the old bastard is saying. – Better yet they’ve cut the feed altogether now!
Bollocks – they’ve now fixed it.
Apparently Brown’s going to cut bureaucracy by introducing online school reports. We’re all saved!
Another Monday morning – another silly initiative…..
Anything to distract McBust’s client state from reality.
According to the BBC, this government is very well hung.
There’s yet another Marxist leftie love-in going on on BBC Radio 4 right now, with Old Trot, Tariq Ali leading an adoring coven of worshipping useful idiots.
Tariq Ali?? I thought that ‘red under the bed’ was dead …
We can all live in hope.
The discussion basically is:
Soviet Union = good
British Empire = bad
Communism = good
Capitalism = bad
Marxism = good
Conservatism = bad
Black = good
White = bad
I’ve made this part of the National Curriculum
Don’t forget:
Four Legs = good
Two Legs = bad
Im all for a long drop and short, sharp stop but perhaps we could punish them in a manner that will provide infinitely more suffering, how about this: The traitors, troughers and corrupt theives are stripped of their pensions, their personal wealth, their passports. They are to be left with NOTHING
They are then to be forced to live on one of the ‘sink’ estates on benefits for the rest of their natural life. If the estate is improved then they will simply be moved elsewhere. They will not be allowed to:
leave the country
inherit wealth (it will be confiscated by the state)
accept gifts from friends etc.
work
If their partners wish to stand by them, then they shall be subject to the same conditions.
They will be subject to electronic tagging and a curfew.
They will be automatically at the bottom of any NHS waiting list.
Wont that be worse for them than briefly dangling from a rope? Perhaps have them under constant CCTV surveilance, 24 hours a day, to make sure they are watching trisha etc. for the required 6 hours a day.
50 days ago
Gordon Brown said negotiators had 50 days to save the world from global warming and break the “impasse”.
He told the Major Economies Forum in London, which brings together 17 of the world’s biggest greenhouse gas-emitting countries, there was “no plan B”.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/8313672.stm
Today
That said, up until a few weeks ago the goal of the summit was to agree and sign a treaty – a new piece of international law. Now, however, all the key players say that’s unlikely; the best we can expect is a political deal.
He, The Great Leader, is used to saving us, saving the world …… all before breakfast, so no change there then.
How dare you suggest that he will not succeed in his original goal !!
Once McJonah tried to jump on the global warming gravy train, global warming as a source of revenue political force was f**ked.
Since his whole tax policy was based lemonade bubbles (CO2) being verboten, he cannot now say it was complete shite – that would one U-turn too far.
What sort of mong bases his tax revenues on a product that he does not want us to use? 2p extra a litre is not extra revenue when the punters use one litre less – tax loss = 80p.
Brown as usual swimming against a tide of shite as it goes down the u-bend.
Watching Brown on Sky;
Horrifying bullshit about savings just because he says so – this is like watching Hitler standing outside his Berlin bunker in April 1945 and saying that at least the guards in the camps were well fed.
Stalin is in full flow.
My contacts in Labour tell me that Brown knows from pricate polling that he is hated by huge swathes of Labour voters and this is driving much of his fury and dementia.
It is a load of political bollocks. Telling the public that sacking a handful of senior civil servants will solve the national debt.
Comrade, it is not just Labour voters that hate him, some of us from the real world have an almost pathological hatred of him and his cronies……
Oh Gord…Martha Lane Fox is working for Gordon Now….She’ll be in the House of Lords next
Brown is encouraging schools to use text messaging to tell the kids parents that they are playing truants!
Hilarious,you simply cannot make any of this up!
And text messages to patients to remind ‘em to turn up for their NHS appointments. This will apparently ‘save’ 600m quid a year in the cost of missed appointments – the equivilent of 13,000 nurses.
Hmmmm. 600m quid employs 13,000 nurses eh? So 200bn quid (this years deficit) would employ over four million nurses.
Where are they?
I cant stand the imbecile and change channels whenever I see or hear him, or any of his cheerleaders / apologists.
Does anyone question the buffoon properly and in depth ala the late Robin Day?
Quite so. If he’s on then there’s a mad panic to find the remote and get him off. I have seen quite a few PMs in my time, but I have never loathed anyone as much as this incompetent and delusional Hoon.
Ah yes, the late and much-lamented Robin Day, the last of the truly ‘forensic’ interviewers….
So on those figures a nurse earns £46,153.84 per year ?
Fuck Me Where Do I Apply
Brown;
“and every Wednesday,we shall guarantee that at least half of the country’s poorest will win the National Lottery jackpot”
and on and on this Communist drone ploughs,unaware that his political life is finished,no more and utterly gone.
And free weather forecasts for everyone!
I am not making this up – he is saying it right now!
It does rather sound like he’s just discovered the interweb.
Scrapping the useless meteorological office would save £millions for starters.
Whatever happened to the good old days……pre 1997 ??
Things have only gotten better – debt under the Tories was 200 billion, everyone caught diseases in hospital, pensions were destroyed, we were constantly at war, the government was using climate change as an excuse to tax the people, nothing worked, it always rained…er er
Is that OK Mr O’Brien or do I need more education in Room 101?
They are in the past. It is 2009 now.
http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/
It is Free NOW Gordon
guaranteeing another 1M people online!
To watch even more porn!
This is simply bizarre to watch.
He’s reading it all for the first time. He has no idea what is is saying
It is amazing to watch – like watching one of those car crash tests in slow motion where the dummy family go right though the windscreen – and we haven’t got to the side impact test yet!
Are the other cabinet members aware he is saying these things?
His voice keeps cutting out. They can’t have plugged his jaw in properly this morning.
I cannot bear to watch the Maximum Imbecile but it sounds from what you folk are saying that he genuinely hasn’t seen this speech until it appeared on the auto-cue. It reallly does sound as if the Tories have managed to infiltrate Labour HQ and set the numpty up.
Mind you, bearing in mind he was going to cure cancer as his party trick for the Labour Conference, it is just possible that this is the result of his own brain-storming.
Free weather forecasts?
Don’t we get those at the end of every news already?
I have fifty tank divisions waiting in the woods ready to drive forward and smash the …………
I Doubt wether you have 50 tanks let alone 50 divisions out of those 50 49 will be waiting for spares !
Now that turd burgling cock Stone Wacko Jocko has confirmed that Global warming is a fact we are now assured of an ice age in the near future
Brown has just admitted to a “culture of excess”
I suspect he is going for a February election,to be announced in January.
You can be sure he means everybody else’s ‘culture of excess’. Certainly not his own culture of excessively optimistic Treasury growth figures used to justify excessive borrowing and squandering by his imbecile government.
It’s all our fault. All 60,000,000 of us. If only he could take us all under his wing and show us how to be prudent economic planners like himself. National annual deficit 200bn quid plus.
Deluded jackass.
Article in the Ecomomist was very sceptical about UK growth prospects. M4 very concerning apparently
Coming out of recession at all costs not so Eyeron cast
‘Excess’? As in Parliamentary expenses?
“culture of excess”
Softening everyone up for incoming green poverty.
That would take courage – so it won’t happen. Remember that previously he bottled an election he might have won so he’s hardly going to take the risk of leaving office even 3 months early.
If only.
FIRST IN LINE FOR THE GALLOWS
So I was in a hotel last night and feeling a bit lonely, so I got online and found a local escort girl. She looked nice and into the sick kinky shit I am so I grabbed the phone and dialed her number:
“Hello”
“Hi there, I saw your website.”"
“That’s good”
“I’d like you to come up to my room”
“What for sir?”
“Well, I want you to dress up like a schoolgirl, we’ll start by me spanking you, then some oral, definitely anal. After I’ve shot my load over your face I want you to give me a rimjob until I’m hard again. Then I’ll fuck the shit out of your mouth while you use a dildo up my ass.”
“Sir, you need to dial 9 for an outside line”
Funny,keep it up,if you can.
And I can announce today that I am a traitor and a long term communist spy
“Govt will approve salaries over £150K” !!!!!
Er,didn’t Osborne announce this one first!
They’re trying to trump Osborne with his own idea. He said at the Tory Conference that he would personally approve any salary higher than the Prime Minister’s (190k ish)…
Liam Byrne needs his neck elongated by at least another metre
The sociopath Byrne is almost as vile as Brown and Mandelson.
You don’t vote for a hung Parliament. It’s a outcome not a ballot choice.
Well we have never ever voted for a government in this country, a clear majority always votes against them, but we get them anyway!
What’s with young Ossie converting to islam ffs. This is surely a major concern for national security. This soft c’unt has access to people at the top of the shit pile. me thinks its time Adam, or whatever his fucking name is now – the traitor – takes a ride in an open toped car.
Tories lose some votes……..b, n, p gain some.
Bad move by Osborne frere.
Re Rod Liddles anti-multi-culti piece in the Spectator. It now seems clear that many posts supporting Rod are being censored while all his leftie detractors from twitter are getting through.
What does that tell you about the Spectator?
http://www.spectator.co.uk/rodliddle/5601833/benefits-of-a-multicultural-britain.thtml#comments
The Speccie has been going downhill ever since leftie/liberal/diversity-freak Fraser Nelson took over as editor.
There’s an urgent need for a new magazine of the right.
How about “Tractor Stats Weekly”?
Since yesterday I’ve had three reasonably-worded posts in favour of Liddle all knocked back by the Speccie’s mods. I wonder if he realises he’s being stitched up like a kipper by his own magazine’s moderators?
The mod policy at The Spectator is to balance out posts with a right-wing slant with posts with a left-wing slant.
So if there were 20 right-wing posts and 10 left wing posts all 10 left wing posts would be published but only half of the right wing posts.
It’s all done in the interests of fairness and balance.
How can censoring posts in the spurious interests of “balance” be deemed fair FFS!
I saw Frasier Nelson debating a “warmist” on sky over the weekend, he was “playing” the sceptic and even then he said he agreed with man-made global warming theory, just was a bit concerned about the leaked emails. FFS!
If the news was truly impartial they would have had a real sceptic on who would have used the comments in the code and the Harry-read-me.txt file to tear the “warmist” a new one.
The emails, code and supporting data, present clear and unambiguous prima facie evidence of conspiracy to commit fraud at the very heart of the man-made global warming scare. The falsification of data, the corrupt analysis of data upon which these other “hundreds” of peer review scientific papers are based, shows that the science is not settled. It is faked!
Frasier was sucking the warmist’s cock in that “debate”
Christ – have you seen how shifty Brown looks when the people at the conference questions him?
Like a 2nd hand car dealer questioned about the rust on the cars in his front car lot.
help stop Global Cooling. hang a banker today.
latest scientific findings from Skegness University show gaseous bowel emissions from about to be lynched bankers would make a significant contribution to increasing methane concentration in the lower atmosphere, and so bolstering overall greenhouse gases and halting plummeting global temperatures.
Why does the Copenhagen conference need an opening ceremony?
Because it’s the right thing to do.
So they know it’s open?
It’s the reptillian brain. Needs repetitive ceremony. It’s also part of their alchemy. they are performing magik.
The opening ceremony alone should be enough to convince anyone that it’s all a big con.
If they were serious then they’d get right down to business without wasting time on all that crap.
Brown keeps talking about Martha Lane Fox coming to the rescue with this ‘Digital Britain’ agenda of his. I thought the project had been entrusted to the capable hands of that likeable chap, once profiled on this site, Sion Simon? Is he out of favour now? Just because he resembled a smelly, scruffy hippy and is an arrogant little shit doesn’t mean he didn’t have a worthwhile vision for Britain’s digital future.
I see your Dame Kirsty Allsop and I raise you another product of private school education and Oxford (history) graduate and daughter of Old Etonian and Oxford graduate and now Oxford history professor. Martha Lane-Fox.
Because what I hate most is nepotism and privilege.
Vote Labour
Hear, hear !!
Having watched that speech from Brown,I can categorically say that I have never witnessed a bigger pile of bollocks as that in my 47 years of life.
That was the most peurile,mendacious load of crap I have ever heard.
He is so full of shit,he is a one man sewer.
Lie after lie after lie,followed by that bizarre waving of his hands – the idiot is lying so much it is untrue.
Millions this ,billions of that – just numbers from a Soviet spy.
Hmmmmm… I wonder what tomorrow’s headline grabbing pronouncements and diktats will be??
Tory Central Office should have a researcher go through all for the past 12 months and see how many were kicked into the long grass ……
GMTV had a Yank on the TV this morning a very sensible Yank.
The floods in Cumbria were largely a result of the rivers not being dredged for many years. If you don’t fix the drainage then no amount of Carbon trading will stop flooding. Goverments should consider that simple precautions are far cheaper and effective than wasting money on windmills that will have no effect on the climate.
The Climate Is warming..in the sense that the Earth has come out of an Ice age. We can not stop it changing.
Coastal erosion around Britain is nothing to do with climate change, it is coastal erosion and Britain has always had coastal errosion and distribution.
Even Pen Hadow the polar explorer had to correct GMTV, it is not the sea level rising around London it is London that is sinking at 30cm per centuary which creates the effect that the sea level is rising. South East England is sinking.
South East England sinking you say? And Blair’s Deputy Imbecile, John ‘Climate’ Prescott okays the building of 100,000 houses in the Thames floodplain. You would think with a staff of over 2,000 jobs invented just to make John feel important that somebody would have mentioned the floodplain. And the geostatic rebound.
Perhaps they did but he was too thick to understand and too arrogant to ask for a comic book explanation he might have been able to understand.
Doing geography homework with my 11year old on Flood prevention.
Don’t build in flood plains.
Don’t chop trees down, or plant more as they soak up the rain.
Lots of towns always have flooded, always will – blame the Romans.
Er that’s it really
You can go to the Environment Agency flood warning page and when you click on rivers in your area, the historical flood areas for rivers is shown in purple. In my own county ( Kent ) Every one of the historical flood affected areas has been built on in the last thirty years.
It is not global bullshit that is causing large amounts of flood damage, it is plain stupidity of government, planners, local authorities and builders ( eight hundred homes are currently being constructed at Cheesemans Green, Ashford on a floodplain! ).
Apparantly The Glaciers never got to Southern England so Scotland sank under the weight and Southern England rose, now the opposite is occuring. The Fens are now 4m below sea level
I think they did get to Sothern England but the ice was thicker in Scotland so they sunk deeper.
‘thicker in Scotland’ … that makes sense.
What did labour do for us??
Well, they ignored the infrastructure of the country…… and then wonder why things go wrong when we have a little change in the weather.
I recall an edition of “Coast” (I think) on telly which explained that during the last ice age, the top bit of Britain was covered in very thick ice, which pressed it down into the earth’s crust; so the south popped up a bit to compensate. Now the ice has gone, so the country is compensating by popping up a bit at the north end, and correspondingly sinking a bit at the south end. Because the timescales involved are geological, it’s still in progress, so the south end of Britain will continue to sink slowly for a long time. The only link with “global warming” is that the process started when the planet warmed up enough to melt the ice sheets.
The indigenous brits coming out of that ice age had too many 4×4 carts and kept their huts light too long and left their fires on standby too much.
Does anyone know how many private jets are flying into Copenhagen to carry CO2 alarmists in to the conference this next two weeks?
I heard it was about 160!
Indeed – one would think that the biggest statement they could possibly make would be do the whole thing via videoconference, rather than flying people from 150 countries to the same place.
Even half a dozen regional meetings conected together would be better than what they have done.
But the delegates – and all the hangers-on – couldn’t enjoy the all-expenses-paid delights of a freebie trip. All those posh restaurants.
Somebody posted t’other day that Copenhagen’s prostitutes thought they’d be overworked during the conference, and have called up reinforcements from Hamburg. How the delegates put that on expenses is anybody’s guess, but it confirms that these junkets are little more that a paid holiday.
Who gets to pay for it all? We do, of course; the poor bloody taxpayer.
This circus is really what makes the whole Copenhagen circus completely laughable:
//www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/copenhagen-climate-change-confe/6736517/Copenhagen-climate-summit-1200-limos-140-private-planes-and-caviar-wedges.html
Sorry, repetition of ‘circus’ – but I hope you get my drift.
Hpocrisy behind Copenhagen- very insightful!!!

Erm – at the risk of being a bit boring, boys and girls, what do we do after we’ve got parliament dangling?
I’m all for regime change – in this instance – but how do we win the peace? How do we ensure fair and equitable government for Britain, free of meddling by the EUSSR, so that decent people can get on with their lives?
Can’t help feeling that one way or another, we’ve got the least worst political system. All we need is a bit more integrity from the people in it. Well, OK, a lot more integrity….
What a tempting idea.
Useful, too. As it might help boost the UK rope industry.
We already have the law and the system, we just need to use it. Magna Carta, Common law and the Bill of Rights! Job done!
The current gang of criminals, traitors and members of the political class are extremely unlikely to change their spots – how could it be otherwise when their entire lives have been devoted to getting into national politics and self enrichment by the public purse?
The only advantages that LabLibCon have over a random assortment of elected independents is some pre-planning and far better party funding. Most of New Labour’s (relative) competence in the first couple of years post 1997 can be attributed to training potential ministers in the workings of their departments and issues before the election (and Blair vowing to match the Tories’ spending plans). New Labour could also rely on a reasonably competent and comparatively unpoliticised civil service. A ‘none of the above’ government has no time to prepare and a bargain basement politicised civil service.
I still think that a UKIP (or none of the above) government is preferable to the main three parties. Whoever gets into power next will probably spend all of the first year and much of the subsequent ones fire fighting. I may be optimistic in hoping that there are sufficient independent potential Parliamentary candidates with ability, experience of private sector business and integrity.
Any integrity at all would be a major improvement.
I never find these funny.
hey, the feeling’s mutual.
They are complete S**T at drawing
In G_ds name….
Dump these crappy “cartoonists”
