Ed Balls Thinks Footie is “Wholly and Necessarily” Etc.
Ed Balls reckons we should pay his football subs. Why?
Perhaps because Gordon thinks we should pay his Sky Sports subscription his homunculus thinks we should pay for him to watch football as well? The parliamentary Green Book says expenses claimed should have been incurred “wholly, necessarily, and exclusively” in the performance of parliamentary duties…















What a wanker
the prick refused to cooperate with the parliamentary authorities
he’s clearly knee deep in the expenses pig shit
He’s even worse – he sponsored the match ball then claimed it back on expenses. Fucking cheapskate.
His writing (printing) is almost as bad as Brown’s. Clearly they didn’t make such a good job of teaching as a child.
Hang the fucking Hunt and his bitch whore of a wife !
The twats need to be ousted at the election !
GUIDO : CAN YOU MAKE UP SOME PLAYING CARDS FOR THE TOP SCALPS AT THE ELECTION ! JUST LIKE WE HAD FOR IRAQ!!!! ta
Ed Balls = Twat of Clubs !
Just spotted that Balls sponsoring the ball for £58.75 was reported in the Guardian on 18 June by Julian Glover (http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2009/jun/18/mps-expenses-speaker-parliament)
Is this another one?
Got him! Surely this one will stick. The huge salaries and claims for extra food that he and his awful wife rip us off for seem to have slipped away from attention, but this one is easy to digest and is completely indefensible. As it happens so it Gordon making us pay his Sky bill. One of the things I have cut from my own budget is sky – i miss it but make do with freeview while times are tough, why can’t politicans understand the same??
Outrageous.
Aside to Mr GBsmpasmyg: don’t pay the BBC (see tvlicensing.biz). Put the £140 towards your Sky sub, if you want it. Sky won’t divulge your details to the BBC/TVL.
So far I have saved about £600, which I have spent on better things, like drink.
Maybe as Rupert Murdock – in 1997 – sponsored New Labour and lumbered Britain with this “dead duck” Chancellor/ Prime Minister – Gordon should get his Sky subscription Free.
Speaking of Ducks and Duck Islands, Zacharia Goldschmidt, who admits he could not be any more corrupt, ducks tax.
He could be far more corrupt. He could be MIchael Martin, driving his mates to the footie at our expense, blocking all investigations into expense troughing, and abusing House procedures at every turn. Or he could be Baroness Uddin, lying about her residence so she could steal expense payments for her main home while pretending to live in a flat outside london. Or he could be Peter Mandelson, Tony Blair or Alastair Darling, who have become wealthy not by hard work or even by inheritance but by using public money to be a property speculator. Or he could be Tony McNulty or Jacqui Smith, enrolling family members in fraud against the state.
Need any more examples fuckwit?
Tell me is Blair a non-domicile for tax purposes? – He acquired his fortune on the back of war,death and lies. Much worse than Godsmith but I see no comment from you on this.
Exactly Sarge, I still to this day cannot find (in the commons) a more odious, extreme example of a foul, extremist, corrupt politician than Blair. He is primarily responsible for the war-crimes and the corruption between the banking and governing sector. He was the Prime Minister when all the Banking unregulation was implemented, he lied blatantly to the Commons and the British people over the need to go to war, He is the most foul and evil man in British political history and he is profiting massively from his time as the most prolific, mass murdering, criminal in British History. Harold Shipman is nowhere near close to Blair’s bloody record.
Brown supported, and paid for, EVERYTHING that he allowed Blair to get away with, so is a very very close second.
Quack Quack Zac Ducks Tax
Quack, quack, Brown murders people, quack.
Parts 0 – Rest of the World 3, try another angle.
Bloody well said, Mr Ned.
Blair is foulness personified.
I believe Skynews is on freeview so why the hell are we paying his sky subs anyway?
As is BBC news, and CNN I think. He can get all the news he needs from the internet too.
……So he can watch the footie. Has anyone checked exactly what packaage he has signed up to? If we’re paying for it, we should all be allowed round to his place to watch it.
It’s the equivalent, to him, of “Rubber Chicken”. Ask Michael HeselTraitor and Geoffrey When, about rubber chickens, and what they are for.
Balls thinks he has to be seen to like football, to be “local” for “local people” (are there any other kinds?) and “show facetime” in what he thinks in the environment of “working people”.
As he regards politics as a career, he sees the costs of this as an “expense”.
This is why there should no longer be any “politics” or “PPE” degrees, and why anybody with a “political qualification” should be forced to sign the Politics Offenders Register, and be barred from “working with people” and also barred from coming within two Parsecs of Westminster or any Council Chamber.
We should only allow old ladies who work in charity shops, and retired colonels and lieutenant-commanders to “enter Parliament”.
“Politics Offenders Register” Brilliant!
And their ID cards should be “turned off”, they should not be allowed bank accounts or cash, and the POR prohibitions are for ever.
what a wanker?
what a thief.
ed balls is, as the document above proves beyond any doubt, a thief.

How much more of this utter pissing in our faces while we suffer and sweat to pay the fucking bills before there are riots in the streets.

Assassination is too fraught with logistic difficulties.
Why not just garotte them in the Lobby, haul them outside past the metal-scanners, then barbecue and eat them?

Firing Squad detail fall in.
I think it’s disgusting that a minister of state can behave in such a manner in a public interview.
Ball’s performance on Drive was sickening.
His thinly-veiled threats showed us the swine in his true colours.
I thought Peter Allen did rather well for a beeboid
I remember Peter Allen interviewing Blair once and asking some pertinent questions that Blair took umbrage at. Presumaly the producer told Allen to end the interview just as Blair was about to lose his rag totally and throw the teddy out of the pram. Congratulations to both Allen and the producer on Drive yesterday for giving Balls the rope with which to hang his pustulent self.
I dunno so much. What a choice? Sub-talent local footie versus up to the back wheels in Ratticus Cooper. Either way ‘spose the feckers could pay for their own fun. Its all balls.
FUCK OEE
I’m so sorry , my post at 2 should have read
FUCK OFF
You were right the first time with “Fuck Old Etonian Ed” (Balls)
The Green Book of Parliamentary Salaries, Allowances and Pensions says “that any expenditure claimed from the allowances has been wholly, exclusively and necessarily incurred for the purpose of performing your Parliamentary duties”
How can Gordon Brown justify spending £175 on gardening as wholly, exclusively and necessarily incurred in the performance of his Parliamentary duties
Also, exactly where does Darling think he is going to get the tax revenue to pay for his largesse.
Britain’s greatest tax income is from financial services, which Darling and Brussels want to emasculate.
Yes Britain should reduce its reliance on financial services, BUT killing the industry to reduce its importance is folly without providing incentives for other industries to grow in its place has all the hallmarks of Iraq War planning.
Brown still governs by focus group analytics and reactive posturing, there is no vision or purpose to this government – everything he touches turns to dust.
I had to laugh at Darling’s response to Osborne yesterday when his first attack was that the Shadow Chancellor had not mentioned growth. Not four minutes before, Osborne talked about how the Tories would promote growth.
This was typical of the “tell a lie often enough” mantra of New Labour and just insults the electorate that we are not supposed to recall Osborne’s comments a few seconds before.
New Labour can’t even be bothered to tell the truth as they know that the chumps at the BBC will not pick it up and expose the lies
Excellent example of that this morning on Toady. Evan Davis interviewing Dahling, who was going on and on and on about reducing the borrowing. I was waiting for Davis, alleged to know something about economics, to ask the obvious “How exactly can you reduce the borrowing when you’re not making a surplus you fuckwit?” – but he never did.
If anyone sees fuckwit Davis’s brains lying around, please send them on to Bush House. Or throw them in the nearest rubbish bin.
Scibblegate
Anyone know what was written on Darling’s door, that we had to pay for it to be repainted?
This bloke had a better idea than painting on Bliars’s door.

Must try harder.
“The attack on the US consulate on April 30 this year was in protest against the war in Iraq. Red paint was thrown on the building in Regent Terrace, and ‘Out of Iraq’ was spray painted on the door.
The incident, which US consul Lisa Vickers described as “wanton destruction”, followed similar attacks on the offices of Edinburgh MPs Nigel Griffiths and Alistair Darling.
And on March 20, the fourth anniversary of the start of the Iraq war, staff arrived at Mr Griffiths’ offices in Minto Street to find four smashed windows and anti-war slogans painted on the walls and front door.
Mr Darling’s offices on Rutland Square, which he shares with MSP Sarah Boyack, were similarly attacked and Stop The War leaflets were scattered around the entrance.”

I also said that we were not making cuts in Education as we wanted children to have a ‘weller education’
His Toady performance was pitiful. Still, I suppose reading his PBR jottings off the back of a fag packet isn’t easy.
With so much thick black felt-tip it looks more like a bar code
Tory troughing is always more inventive and to a far better standard.
And more likely to do the honourable thing if caught in a scandal
Three more clicks and you would have seen he actually sponsored the match ball at £50+VAT. Surely that should have come out of the Comms Allowance?
I’m Brown’s Butler!

ah but who’s Peter’s back-scuttler?

It was the right thing to do.
OINK.
Guido,
Are we surprised about Ed?
This is a man who not only enjoys nazi fetish dressing up, but also had his offices redecorated at great expense to the taxpayer (£3 million of the Queens English Pounds).
His offices now have a post modern neo nazi theme – all dark glass, lchrome & rooms for weird beliefs to be ritualised, apparently.
A mere £91 English Pounds would not even register as an amount to Ed & hios lady boy wifee.
PS – Guido – I can help with those urges regarding Mrs Balls in green leather boots – a new aversion therapy.
it is no surprise ed balls is a fascist: he is a member of the bilderberg group, a group of individuals who meet every year to discuss how to profit from the sale of the sovereignty of the countries they hold public office in.
it is entirely inappropriate for members of the British government to attend such anti-democratic proceedings for their own personal profit.
ed balls is corrupt and he is a thief. the sooner the c’unt has fucked off out of public life the sooner the level of integrity in public life will be raised.
It can only be a matter of time before we are asked to pay for the the top of his car being cut off so that he can travel around London in the standing position with his arm in the air…
At least it’d make him an easier target…
Don’t let us forget the hoon of all hoons
DOUGLAS HOGG……..TORY TORY TORY
Tory MP Douglas Hogg, whose bill for moat-clearing came to symbolise the expenses scandal, switched the designation of his second home in 2008 from his Lincolnshire manor house to a property in London.
In addition to what he described as “core expenses” of £1,091.42 a month – including £759 service charges and £40 a week for cleaning – he put in a series of claims for household items.
These included £20 for a toaster, £19 for low-energy lightbulbs, £4.99 for weedkiller, and £2.99 for refuse bags.
three wrongs do not make a right, gordon.
ed balls is a thief, gordon brown is a thief and hogg is a thief aswell.
it is nothing to boast about or use as mitigation you fucking cretin.
Bang on tat, that’s exactly what these party stooges all miss.
Back in line Mcruin, hoon of all hoons remains the only and only Geoff Hunt.
“Harriet Harman made the public pay for a digital camera bought by her assistant while on holiday in South Africa, it emerged yesterday.
The Leader of the House, who is in charge of Labour’s response to the expenses scandal, claimed £132 for a Fuji Finepix J10 camera and a 1GB memory card picked up by her assistant Charlotte Montague in Cape Town.”
Daily Mail
Cost of the same camera on Amazon UK plus memory card £90 of which about £13 is UK Tax.
Why is an assistant on holiday in SA buying a digital camera for office use only?
Charlotte Montague is not a very plebian name.
This would be the same Charlotte Montague who co-ordinated Harman’s deputy leadership campaign whilst being employed in her parliamentary office.

harriet harman’s assistant is a thief who has stolen money from public funds.
and so they must be sacked.
if harriet harman does not sack this thief then she is condoning the theft of public funds.
innit.
Like Baroness Scotland she is not so much condoning the behaviour as being an accomplice. Wouldn’t want to see the little toff hung out to dry while the boss and instigator gets away with it.
So many fucking labour toffs – unbelievable
Meanwhile the increase in incapacity benefits announced yesterday will in fact be recovered from amounts due in 2011. Lovely.
She just wanted to send hubby a picture of her posing in her new ethnic thong, made out of coconut matting and string. Nothing wrong with that.
All this shite has managed to push my blood pressure up once more. Utterly sick of the way these crooks claim for completely unnecessary garbage and do it without remorse. What should be a noble and alturistic calling has been turned into a gravy train for the political elite.
I hold every single politian in contempt- those that steal, and those that have said nothing. The lament of Pastor Niemuller springs to mind. The worst of it is that we, the electorate, can do nothing about it other than put our cross in a box once every five years.
If anyone is thinking of a demo/ riot to oust this government then count me in.
And me.
Dishonesty or fraud are no longer the serious crimes they once were……. only Thought and Hate Crimes are worthy of investigation under a Labour Government !!
The Thought Police can take me away.
I have always been a ‘good’ bloke. Paid my taxes, fought for this country, obeyed the law, in short I have done my bit. The only payback you get for being ‘good’ is to see your taxes rise, your standard of living fall and more and more dictats from idiots telling me what to think and do. Never has a democracy been so badly served by its elected officials.
I honestly have no pride left for this country. I am thankful I didn’t die for this land (unlike some of my comrades) as it does not deserve one drop of blood to be shed for it.

In that case you, Sir, are an enemy of the State. NuLiebour only looks after its own – the lazy, the feckless and the spongers. By your honourable conduct it is entirely your fault that you have made yourself a very easy target for these greedy, fleecing, profligate bastards.
I see your point Angry, but the toast is still “The Queen” and I presume as long as it remains so, blood will be spilled in her honour; certainly not in fucking unelected Gordon Brown’s honour, nor that war criminal whose name is so despicable I wouldn’t even spit it at a burning room of troughing MPs.

Comment on the PBR.
http://conservativehome.blogs.com/centreright/2009/12/the-pre-budget-report.html
Perhaps one of the most significant features of this is a comment that inflation of 10% is expected.
In my own mind I am clear that savings are going to be decimated and that money should be spent now on outstanding maintenance and replacement.
Keeping savings for old age is impossible.
and interest rates will rise in an attempt to control inflation.
it’s going to be horrible, my friends….
Hence more expenses claims for the aforementioned
As a small, but thrifty saver, how can i protect my meagre scrimpings accumulated through hard work and self denial? At present it earns zero interest in a bank, and not having accountants and dealers to invest it, is only open to deterioration.

There are also N, S & I Index Linked Savings but then you have to rely on the word of the British Gvt to honour the index linking pledge, all a bit dodgy right now.
Alternatively you could invest in wheelbarrows to transport money about in future.
I presume as we all paid for the match ball sponsorship, it was our name that appeared in the programme and not Ed’s? Also I hope all the members of the public at the match were invited into the clubhouse for the hospitality provided to the match ball sponsor that match, it being their money after all?

Not sure what we could use the duck house for, though….
it could be the new olympic stadium
At first glance, the most interesting document published today is the designation of ACA homes spreadsheet. MPs are only allowed to claim expenses on their second homes. This form should reveal the “flippers” – those MPs who decided to change that designation in order to have work done to more than one home at the public’s expense. It looks as though John Bercow, the anti-expenses-sleaze Speaker, and Douglas Hogg, the moat cleaner, were among MPs who started charging for improvements to a new house since 2008.
9.04am It’s a phrase most of us have encountered at the cash machine: “insufficient funds”. George Osborne, the Shadow Chancellor, failed to marshal his own budget carefully enough this year and was rebuffed in April for spending more than his maximum expenses allowance.
8.52am David Cameron fell foul of the less than rigorous expenses rules in September 2008. He put in a claim for £194 he says he spent on utilities without any supporting evidence.
8.43am There are thousands of pages of documentation – we have a team of people combing through the information and will let you know when we come across anything interesting throughout the day.
8.34am Gordon Brown wins the award for quickest mea culpa of the day – he pledges to repay £500 for a re-painted summer house.
8.27am Good morning and welcome to Expenses Reckoning Day IV (or is it V, VI anyone?). At 6am this morning, the latest set of MPs expenses were published on the parliament.uk website. The latest documents include the Additional Cost Allowance claims from 2008-09 and the first quarter of 09/10. There is also a spreadsheet showing the designation of MPs’ second homes and whether they flipped between listing their London home or their constituency home as the one they could make claims on.

You don’t just get the reflected glory of sponsoring the ball for £60 at Ossett Town FC, the payment includes perks:-
“Match Day Hospitality costs just £30 per head – Match Sponsor (Min 5 people) £150
Ball Sponsor (2 people) £60. Additional visitors are charged at £30 each (all + VAT).
The package includes Ground Entry, 10 Beers or 2 Bottles of Wine per person and a Cold Buffet, in our Hospitality suite equipped with SKY TV news and offering panoramic views of the pitch. There is a Tannoy announcement, and guests are acknowledged in the matchday programme.”

Two bottles of wine per person? Jesus, the footie must be that awful, the spectators must need to be shitfaced by half time.
It’s because going to football matches makes him FEEL good, and we want our ministers to feel good, don’t we? That way they do better work and don’t get depressed and become say… incompetent, forgetful, corrupt or hoonish. Now I, if I were a minister would claim for an awful lot of gin and tonic, because that makes ME feel good, and so less likely to become… etc.
