Guido has learned that on the wall of the first floor of BBC Millbank there is a self-congratulatory note saying that they sold 100 cakes for Children in Need at £1 each. However, the note points out testily that there is only £80 in the honesty box. What Guido wants to know is who stole the cakes from Children in Need?
Millbank is the base for the BBC’s Westminster Lobby correspondents. Trust is the key issue in political reporting…

So it is not surprising that Copenhagen is now in chaos.

I wonder if the place got jinxed when Jonah last visited.
Certainly chewed on my minge heartily.
Oh FFS, i’m trying to eat lunch!
and you brought them all up again, didn’t you?
Brown has stolen all our money,our children’s money,our children’s right to a fair future,our right to a fair society and the right to be protected by the police etc etc etc.
I pray very fervently that the Copenhagen talks result in absolutely no result.
I hope it will result in a resolution encouraging people to make more use of fuels like coal and peat which produce carbon-rich fumes and hopefully will in time give rise to milder winters for our struggling old people who, thanks to Brown, can’t afford to heat their frozen, dilapidated homes.
there’s no justice or sense anymore
why can’t brown and the whole of his government just spontaneously combust – fuck, it would make great tv
I’ll leave it up to nick brown, he’s good at that sort of thing
It would probably contravene the Clean Air Acts.
Clean air did not bother the labour government when they filled the countryside in burning cow carcasses in 2001.
Entirely unnecessarily one might add. Just more Marxist control freakery.
Memo to World Leaders attending Copenhagen Sunmmit:
I am prepared to give another £1 billion(or a higher figure if you deem it necessary) on top of the earlier UK donation if you will all just all admit that I personally have saved the World(again) and that all World leaders will give me a testimonial to that effect and endorse me as the only one that the British people can afford to re-elect in 2010
Many thanks

Then we can divert the £1.5bn of our money so generously given by McBust to a much more worthy cause – the purchase of 22 Chinooks for our troops in Afghanistan. And still have £0.6bn over for other essential kit.
You know it makes sense.
Fingers of fudge are free at the point of delivery at the beeb.

Perhaps Brown has promised the £20 for the African nations – after all,getting a Mercedes S Class with blacked out windows serviced can cost quite a bit and Brown boy will pay up for the bill – c*unt
I’d just like to wish everybody a very merry syphilis and a happy gonorrhea.
That is all.
Perhaps, but it’s more acceptable in our current PC world than “Happy Christmas”.
I have just been told by a colleague that his child’s primary school has banned the word “Christmas” and the children have to say the phrase “the C word” instead.
How fucking crazy is that?
“Hey Johnny, what do you want to get for the C word?”
unbefuckinglievable!
Meanwhile, menorahs are becoming increasingly ubiquitous at this time of year, I’ve noticed….
What a bunch of Christmases.
Ubiqitous – you see that word everywhere now.
Dear Santa,
I’ve been a good boy this year, please can I have some Hunt.
Loads of love,
Little Jonny
Suggest you obtain the name of the school and publish it here if that’s the case.
p.s. and some Cuunt.

Oh-oh! A Viz reader!
I’ll see you a crate of 8-ace and raise you a Brown Bottle.
Is 8 ace actually real?
I thought Viz made it up.
Snow – An Inconvenient Truth
is it acid snow tho isnt it?
We need to promote the use of carbon-rich fuels as a matter of urgency, before we descend into a new Ice Age. Why can’t Brown see this?
oh not another one – i’ve just thrown me duffle coat away
We just had a bit of global cooling but now the snow is melting so its back to global warming for now
Doh! cancel that its snowing again, back to global cooling
Do please make your mind up. You’re playing havoc with my projected carbon footprint.
Your right you cannot determine whether the planet is warming up in one afternoon by looking out the window.
I will give it the week round and report back.
OK GUIDO stick the £20 in and let’s see how much coverage we can get from it…Onbe of thosae big cheques would be good…
Oh darling! You must stop imitating me
xox
What do you expect from the the Establishment’s scribes in the BBC? They will simply do what their puppet masters have always done yet only recently have been found out:
PARASITES: http://eotp.wordpress.com/?s=parasite
My mole has just seen Mugabe’s wife asking Gordon Brown for an early £100K credit extension so she can hit the shops in Copenhagen.
Brown replied;
“Don’t be so bloody stupid – here’s £250K”
An aide had to sign the cheque because Gordon Brown,Prime Minister of Great Britain (unelected) cannot write.
I like spending taxpayers money. I am here in Copenhagen looking for good causes.
It’s so easy, just borrow billions and then give it away to anyone…..Do you think they will give me a nice shiney Nobel Award like my good friend Mr Obhamahamaha
My great-grandfather was just like Brown. He used to go to the pub and buy everyone a drink, until eventually he had spent so much money that his farm was sold and the family subsided back into the industrial proletariat.
So when the economies have to be made, after the election, let’s start by economising on the police protection for one Dr. JG Brown, AKA the Snot Gobbler.
LOL last night watching ITN news at Ten – Bradbury was praising Brown’s negotiating skills!
No harm done on this occasion. Cheques are due to be abolished later today, so by the time Mrs. Mugabe presents it, it will be as worthless as Brown’s premiership.
Back from the gay bookshop where you work mornings?
Biased BBC: http://biased-bbc.blogspot.com/
Gerald Warner, writing in the Daily Telegraph, yesterday:-
“The BBC, or to give the corporation its proper name, British state television……….. No intelligent or inquiring individual believes, respects or trust the BBC”.
Quite.
‘trusts’
finicky bastard
Oo you callin’ finicky?
I no longer use the BBC TV or their news website – it is simply untrustworthy.
Another nail in the plank that is Labour.
Ditto!
And, just to wind up the TV licensing people, I download un-encrypted BBC TV & radio programs using the (free) IPlayer Downloader program!
http://po-ru.com/projects/iplayer-downloader/
Same here. The BBC is history in this household.
Nick2,
Does it work outside the UK?
@Anonymous Misogynist
If you can access iplayer content via your browser, then the ipdl program should work. If you can’t already view iplayer content then you need to access it via a UK based proxy server.
I find this one better:
http://linuxcentre.net/getiplayer/download
Don’t worry, it runs on windows as well, if you insist. Can download HD too, which I couldn’t get through an aerial (if I had one)
Me too, my blood pressure can’t cope with their lies and deceit.
Yeah because the MailyTelegraph is really a great source of news these days?
Too bloody right – and they bollock around London in taxis cos the tube is too common.
Those diesel taxis are not exactly environmentally friendly are they? certainly less so than the tube, but then we cannot have the BBC employees mixing with the real plebs can we. They need to stay separated and distant from their viewers, in an insulated world of falsehoods all of their own making.
How big is the BBC’s carbon footprint?
The biggest source of emmissions (sic) isn’t so much the BBC itself as the 108″ flatscreen gracing every council dwelling up and down this foul land.
If the BBC were serious, honourable, etc. about the nation’s emissions they would have a single TV channel that broadcast only from 1800-1805 daily, giving us an update on our glorious Leader and the war with Eurasia. Or is it Oceania?
But then they’re a bunch of hypocrites. Smegma. Gleet. Pestilential, suppurating buboes.
P.S. Don’t pay the telly tax. It’s for mugs. Google “TV Licensing” for linkies to subversive sites.
There shouldn’t be any carbon tax, tat, as the CO2 modelling industry is completely fraudulent, from the core data through the black box models to the presentation. History will label Phil Jones another Lysenko.
Meanwhile cap and trade (invented by Ken Lay of Enron) has already made Lakshmi Mittal £1 billion and now Tata stands to make £600 million by closing the Corus plant in Teesside and moving production to a less efficient plant in India. The whole thing is yet another scam.
sorry, just farted again, how much is that?
Black cabs?
‘Europe’s most polluting public transport’ I was told by Europe’s leading engine designer.
And that’s health-damaging pollution, not life-giving Co2.
Seen the tumbrils of black soot coming out of the exhausts? You lot are breathing that in.
Doesnt’ FREAKONOMICS have something in it about ‘honesty boxes’ ???
It certainly does. “SuperFreakonomics” has a bit on the global warming scam as well – it’s worth reading.
The rioting great unwashed MMGW devotees in Copenfrauden look remarkably like the anti capitalist devotee rioters we see regularly.
From red to green to red to green to…….
Why are all these climate change protestors carrying expensive video cameras?
are they hoping to catch a copper clubbing somebody over the head so they can sell the jpeg to the press?
Feckin marxist scum!
Er, they’re Trotskyists actually. That’s where their internationalist agenda comes from.
And the difference is????
You are Jimmy Reid and I claim my €5
Marx was reasonably happy to keep Communism within Russia; Trotsky fervently wanted to export it worldwide.
Glad we sorted that out then!
Marx died in 1883 so he clearly would not have thought about keeping Communism within Russia as it did not become a Communist state until 1917.
Indeed, I do piss myself at them protesting against globalisation at the G20 and then protesting for a lot more globalisation at Copenhagen.
Can’t these fuckwits make up their minds?
“We hate the international fascist corporate elite! We must give them more power and money to do something about themselves!”
For fuck’s sake!
“Why are all these climate change protestors carrying expensive video cameras?”
They are for beating the baby seals.
This story is a year old but seems relevant…
http://freakonomics.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/12/12/smashing-the-honesty-box/
W0gan in greed wasn’t as successful as last year due to the recession, and being caught red handed fiddling his fees a while back. This is his stealth tax?
Twenty quid? That’s the entire budget for an edition of Toady!
Not quite – it’s the sum total of what’s left over for programme making after paying McNaughtie, Humphrys, the guffawing Sarah, the interrupting Davis, and Webb their enormous salaries.
That noise that La Montague emits every 5 minutes on the Today programme is the most obnoxious noise on the radio. Does she look like she sounds anyone. For her sake I hope not.
3 dead in copenhagen global warming riots. – froze to death
Boom-tish !!
If they put the water canons on them they won’t have to bother with the zip ties just leave them as they are until they thaw out in the spring.
Very little chance of getting a plane ticket to Copenhagen at this late stage. Pity as I’d really like to thump those protesters.
Expect to hear soon the allegation that the culprit is a Tory supporter and that the misappropriated cakes were for rich people.
Guido, you are making a mountain out of a molehill – when I first read this story I thought [and believed] that the amount was THIRTY POUNDS – about par for the course with this Government.
It turns out the actual amount is FIFTY POUNDS more than that.
Maybe later in the day they offered a ’3 for 2′ offer to get rid of the cakes more quickly when they were not quite at their freshest – it all brings in some cash and is better than chucking away 20 cakes.
Perhaps Alistair Darling has been helping out with the accounts.
Or were they using the CRU data manipulation program?
Nah, then the raw amount of cash missing would have been £20.00, but the total according to the program would have been £250, rising to £300 next summer!
Yep, but who gets hit over the head with a hockey stick?
These aren’t ordinary cakes…..these are BBC cakes costing ten times as much as the same thing in Tesco.
They all get paid for working on Children in Need and then brag about their charitable endeavours too. Scum.
Shut it down.
You’d have to be bonkers to contribute to any cause the Beeb promotes! Filthy, conning bastards.
What would you do?
Co-op worker mistakenly paid £1m
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/tyne/8414712.stm
telling my employer about their mistake might not be first on my list
wifull ignorance and heavy drinking might be further up
wilfull ignorance, heavy drinking and some dirty women would be even better
Run to the phone,call Sicily and ask for a RELIABLE hitman to hot foot it to Copenhagen – none of this statue throwing bollocks – the full monty – agree a fee of £999,990
And you won’t have to give him a photo of the target,just tell him to look for a miserable, nose picking,gurning,one-eyed shyster – even in that crowd he will be standing out as there will be a long line of African dictators queuing up to get their cheques from him.
And with the other £10 left over from the £1M,I would book myself on a tour of the Carlsberg Brewery in Copenhagen.
A most excellent suggestion!
Amazing, I’ve only been here a few hours and already they have named a museum in my honour.
I missed that, where is the FuckWit museum in Copenhagen?
It’s where they ‘re holding the climate change conference!
Police are looking for an Edinburgh man who was mistakenly handed £600 billion by his employers in the expectation that he would spend it sensibly on their behalf. The man, described as in his 50s, thin, with silver hair, bushy eyebrows, a hangdog expression and a droning voice, is believed instead to have frittered most of it away and deposited the rest in his favourite bank.
Copenhagen talks “messy and chaotic” says Miliband
That’s what happens when Gordon is involved Ed
http://page.politicshome.com/uk/preview_article.html?article_id=4608
“messy and chaotic”;
Only because they can’t beat,tax and blackmail to get their own way,like they do with all of us poor downtrodden scum Brits.
Because they are not dealing in truth. They are trying to sell lots of mutually exclusive and contradictory lies to people with different agendas. The underlying agenda being that the rich nations want to starve or freeze hundreds and hundreds of millions of the poorest people on earth, to death!
They are having one hell of a time selling that idea to the poor nations though. However with a few more billions (of our taxes) for their corrupt tribal leaders to buy jewels, luxury cars, yachts and gulf stream jets, they might get a deal yet!
If the scoffers concerned were highly-paid ‘journalists’ like Mr Toenails, I would be disgusted (not surprised – sometimes the higher-paid are the biggest chisellers). However, if the scoffers were the downtrodden and relatively more lowly-paid cleaners, sound technicians, engineers and typists, I might have a bit more understanding. Not much more, but a bit.
So, one in five Aljabeeba staff are shameless troughers. How about withholding 20% of the telly tax next time?
Why not just send ‘em a load of feckin cakes instead of the licence fee with a note explaining they are to replace the ones stolen by their public employees.
Don’t pay the licence fee at all. Starve the fuckers.
Starving sound technicians??? Hahahahahahahahahah
Whoever steals from charity boxes should have their fingers chopped off. Or bring back the stocks, for some ritual humiliation and rotten egg throwing.
So it was you who scoffed the cakes and didn’t pay, eh, TaT? Methinks you protest too much. Still, I suppose cakes made a pleasant change for you from cold baked beans.
TaT – You’re projecting again.
I’m in the North. I have long arms, but they’re not long enough to reach Millbank.
It’s like the Sunlight Centre all over again.
What,the Sunlight washing up liquid?
20% sounds about right for many fundraisers. Were Termite and Dec around that day by any chance?
I think they were in the land down under at the time that Liebour in need of a distraction was on, if I recall correctly?
Gordon on TV now.
“Only 48 hours to save the earth.”
Something about taking the kids to school in a snowdrift..must achieve consensus … promises to pledge the same amount of money as he pledged last time but he really means to hand it over this time… he was the first one to agree to something.. a photo-op with Obama I think .. something about flood pants.. started in Antarctica..
Can’t listen to anymore I keep dropping off.
The man is a pathetic, miserable little turd. An international joke. He thinks he’s a world player. He’s on Sky right now trying to seem important.
He’s a nobody; a fucking embarassment. He makes me ashamed to be British when I travel abroad. I wonder what the prospects are for a UK citizen claiming asylum in say Sweden?
Zero – your application will be laughed at and you will be blacklisted – or is is BROWNlisted?
According to Gordon’s website. Time has run out.
http://www.actoncopenhagen.decc.gov.uk/en/
Great news! So we’ll hear no more about all this nonsense, then.
Says Brown is a major world leader?
Harman got a good laugh from the chamber when she applied the term “world leader” to Brown during PMQs today. That c*unt’s an expensive joke.
what am I going to do with this M+S turkey and fucking mince pies now?
Is he offering to sell-off military assets to pay for climate change now?
Doh! bought me christmas presents already.
I heard him on the news this morning promising a deal at Copenhagen would prevent bad weather from ever happening again.
Seriously, He promised an end to bad weather, floods and storms and hurricanes.
Has he never read the story of King Canute?
Brown, and all the other hypocritical, lying and delusional twats in Copenhagen really are the most imbecilic of fuckwits!
brown is king cnut!
i believe that is the accepted spelling.
Right letters wrong order for the middle two though I’d say.
He can do this, he got rid of boom and bust isn’t it.
Canute, or Cnut, or Hoon (as his detractors called him) did not claim to be able to halt the tide, Mr Ned! Instead he demonstrated to his courtiers that he could NOT — to counteract their notions that he was infallible and divine.
This was in the days before professional PR. Silly bastard. Serves him right that people have got the story arse-uppards ever since.
Copenhagen: Some foreign looking bloke has just proposed “attacks on airlines” as a possible solution. Seems a bit extreme.
Sorry, but he actually suggested a tax on airlines!
Same thing?
Rolling on the floor laughing at that one!!!
But Brown this morning was told that surely the BA strike was a good thing as there will be fewer planes flying,whereupon the most unpopular man in Britain replied that actually there will be more planes flying in the future and we need to get more people on trains too.
So WHO IS going to design the world’s longest railway bridge from UK to East Coast USA?
If I could get to within a yard of Brown,I would make a citizens arrest while holding a strait jacket.
Really?
I was thinking of doing a Berlosconi on him with a miniature St Pauls if I got that close.
try a real size blackpool tower – that’ll work
Nothing is too extreme for the Green Marxist Alliance. They are killing a few today so that the many may survive tomorrow. Its for our own good.
Those passengers knew the crime they were committing when they decided to fly to Spain on a two week package holiday & are obviously enviro-crims & are asking for it.
I am sure that David Miliband can justify it with some neo lefty moral equivalence as he has in the past when he condoned terrorism after declaring that there were circumstances in which it was ‘justifiable’.
Didn’t his dad know some “freedom fighters”, so I guess he can pontificate from a position of knowledge.
“They are killing a few today so that the many may survive tomorrow. Its for our own good.”
————————————————-
Actually, according to the words of the environmentalist movement, you have that the wrong way round. They are killing the vast majority so that an enlightened (illuminated?) few can survive and thrive on the global plantation.
The Cycloptian Snotgobbler is obviously trying to carve out a little world climate statesman niche for himself after he is ditched by the electorate for giving all our money away, robbing our pensions, flogging our gold, socially engineering the population and generaly fucking things up for the next 20 years.
No Christmas decorations at Harrods
Fuggin diablolical liberty, innit?
It was disgusting, they had the nerve to display tea towels when everyone knows we should not encourage nativity plays.
That is all

Don’t forget,Brown’s drugs work 100% for the first 6 hours of the day and then they decline in their effect – by 4pm GMT he will be a deflated bag of wind – THAT”S when we wheel in Adam Boulton to trigger another evil 20 second stare.
This Copenhagen thingy – it’s like a bloody opera that hasn’t been written yet – they are literally making it up as they go along.
Perhaps by Friday,Robert Mugabe will be PM and Brown will be Second Assistant Secretary For Internal Affairs in The Congo.
GORDON BROWN: GLOBAL WARMING CRITICS ‘IGNORANT’
http://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/146264/Gordon-Brown-Global-warming-critics-ignorant-
That’s it. Gordon has gone too far this time. I am going to write and ask for an apology and I hope others do too.
There seems to be a campaign to make those who question if Global warming(if it exists) is caused wholly by man, look as if they do not care abot the environment and I am getting to the stage where I am not going to take it on the chin anymore.
“GLOBAL WARMING CRITICS ‘IGNORANT” Claims Brown.
This, coming from a man who claimed on the news this morning that if we get a deal at Copenhagen, then we will not have any more bad weather.
I shall repeat that, in case you missed the seriousness of his statement first time:
He claimed on the news this morning that if we get a deal at Copenhagen, then we will not have any more bad weather.
The man is clinically insane, He is a delusional, fantasist and has lost all grip on reality.
“Pot calling the kettle black” if you ask me…
I’m not ignorant I just don’t know what’s going on
I might be ignorant — what does the word mean?
I am ignorant and so is my wife!
When they stop travelling by plane and fuck-off sized giant limos I might listen. Until then, don’t even think about trying to con me.
http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/Flatearth-insult/
A Petition has gone up concerning this.
A bit mild but never mind.
Listen you lot, global warming is happening I tell you, I moved to Spain 2 years ago and since then, it has been much hotter than when I lived in Doncaster- why don’t you peeeple get it?
Signed.
Er.. Brown does not do apologies and if he DID,you would never be able to understand what he wrote,cos he certainly never does.
You lot are mental. MMGW exists, now get over it.
multi media great wank
So does Santa Claus.
There are plenty of scientists that say there is doubt. Wanting something to exist because it’s politically convenient doesn’t necessarily make it true. The only true statement anybody can make about MMGW is that it’s a plausible, but unproven, theory.
Thats fair enough. I’ll go with plausible then. More plausible that the evidence on the other side.
Still unproven. Certainly not proven enough to ruin the world’s economy over.
And your evidence for AGW is…?
Next week, how to nail a jelly to the ceiling
It’s all bollocks.
Seeing as we live on a planet and not just on a dead rock in the middle of a universal vacuum, climate change is an intrinsic part of living on a planet.
If the climate didn’t change then life never would have evolved.
The climate does change, a lot, and often. Just because we didn’t have the BBC to report on it a thousand years ago that doesn’t mean it hasn’t happened before.
I take the “science” of the scaremongering stalinist twats with the pinch of salt that it deserves.
Are we having an impact on the climate? Probably. But then again the magnetic poles could reverse at any moment, or the sun could start an unexpected phase, or we could be hit by a meteorite, there are an infinite amount of other situations that could happen. a 2 degree increase caused by us is fucking nothing compared to what nature will inevitably throw at us in the near future out of sheer fluke.
Our impact on the planet is like firing a water pistol at the sea, thereby making it rise by a fraction of a nano-metre, whilst a comet is on its way which’ll double the depth of our oceans.
BBC CAVES IN TO CARTER-RUCK THREATS OVER TRAFIGURA
Iain Dale 6:34 PM
Carter-Ruck have succeeded in persuading the BBC to remove all reference to the Trafigura story from its website, according to the New Statesman. They really don’t learn do they – Carter Ruck or the BBC. You cannot suppress things like this in the modern media age. If one organisation caves in, there will the dozens more only to willing to step up to the plate.
So do enjoy this Newsnight film, which I really wouldn’t bother to have posted had the BBC not caved in.
Could I encourage every single UK blogger to embed this video in their blogs too

BANKERS ARE THE LATEST TO BE ADDED TO CARTER-RUCK’S MOTLEY CLIENT LIST:
From Financial Times–
‘..Lawyers at Carter Ruck and Schillings, London’s largest law firms specialising in defamation, privacy and reputation management, have taken on privacy actions for “a lot” of corporate figureheads since their role in the financial crisis moved from the business pages to the front…’
‘..It is not nice being targeted as the scum of the earth and the entity responsible for the financial crisis’ ‘The government is changing the rules of the game while the game is still being played’ ‘The bonus is an incentive system for people to work hard and smart. I would rather they killed salaries than bonuses’ ‘When I am sitting there at 2 in the morning, I need to be compensated for the fact. I am also not going to do it for a bonus that is 20 per cent of my salary….’

I also think we should be allowed to set Brown’s EXECUTION date.
Everyday
BBC News;
“Brown prevented from leaving Copenhagen conference centre”
What is it all the African “leaders” demanding more cheques from him to support their er.. green lifestyles.
Err… shouldn’t that be “greenback lifestyle”?
Maybe a fat blogger stole them.
Lets get off the trivia. I have just seen the story that Cyclops has phoned Tzipi Livny (the Israeli Radovan Karadzic) to tell her she is welcome in this country despite the arrest warrant issued by British courts. Whatever you think of the rights and wrongs of the Israeli actions has Cyclops not heard that the courts are not beholden to the twisted opinions of the Prime Mentalist (or is he suggesting he is going to set up as dictator to avoid an election). I always thought Thatcher was bad suggesting Pinochet was above our laws. This is worse since he is in office.
Quite. I’m very concerned about this story. The courts have jurisdiction for these offences, it is not up to Broon or anyone else what a presiding magistrate decides is a good case to answer. If they reckon on the evidence put before them that there is a reasonable enough case, they can issue a warrant, and so should they.
it’s fuck all to do with the government. If the govt doesn’t like it, change the law – don’t start this SHIT about “israel is our friend so don’t issue warrants” what kind of despotic crap is that? Either the law applies to all equally, or it shouldn’t be applied to anyone.
More like Zimbabwe everyday
Or not. You insulting twat
That’s right, Brixjac – Zimbabwe’s leader actually won an election.
Brixjac, Harman stated quite clearly that the courts are not subject to political interference. So, if an arrest warrant has been issued then how can the Prime Mentalist reassure someone that they are welcome to visit the UK?
Answer in your own time.
No doubt all the poor, peace loving palestinians will want to make a noise and a racket in London. More overtime for the Met. Police .
Not the point. The point is that if Golem can ignore the courts on one issue he can ignore them on others. He might make being a prat a capital offence in which case you are in deep shit.
Handbags at 5 paces??
I support the Israelis over the Palestinians any day…… I cannot see any of our judges covering themselves in anything other than sh*t….
Funny how the Arab countries that have the palestinian’s squatting in their country dislike them intensely……..
No one is even admitting who brought the prosecution, is that covered by Carter Ruck too, or Millibland made a mistake?
O/T
The strategy of robbing peter to pay paul with our armed forces is dangerous.
Britains whole defence policy will now be dictated by our war in Afghanistan.
High end, war winning technology that can protect mainland UK will be cut in favour of low end,low level war fighting technology that does not gaurantee winning.Least of all in Afghanistan.
The answer is simple.
Withdraw 90% of our troops from Afghanistan and the remainging 10% hunker down like the other EU troops.
Only the vanity and pigheadedness of a politician would sacrifice the future security of our country just to save face.
I am not a cakey person
My 8 year old Newphew told me that my large BMW was responsible for killing polar bears
I told him a bin bag of food waste and Barrett M107 was far more effective
If you want to kill a Polar Bear you dig a whole in the ice and surround it with birds-Eye peas. Then you wait till a Polar Bear comes up for a pea and you kick it in the ice-hole – Simples
“In 1922 Peppy the polar bear was introduced to both packs and advertising as the icon for the Glacier Mints product and he still remains on pack today not only on our Mint packaging but on all the variants of the Fox’s Glacier range”
don’t eat yellow snow or a polar bear’s liver
Polar Bear is delicious, but needs long, slow cooking, especially from frozen. Serve with a side-dish of freshly-clubbed seal pup. Don’t try to eat a whole one at once.
has anyone worked out the carbon foot print of all those morons in copenhagen is?
Foot print? It’s more like a mile print.
Labour, failing to pay up, wanting something for nothing? thieving barstewards??……….. no change there then..!!
Paul Gascoigne arrested last night for drunk and disorderly. Gave his name as Suzanne Moore
allegedly
the clue will be in the waist band.

Judith Townend asks on Journalism.co.uk “Where has the BBC’s Trafigura feature gone?”, and reports that a spokesperson for the BBC said: “We haven’t got anything to say on this. As discussed earlier we are often not able to comment if there’s a live legal action.”
Meanwhile, Trafigura is buying relevant sponsored links on Google’s search page to promote its side of the story.
Searching for Trafigura on Google brings up links sponsored by the the oil company
As mainstream media has fallen silent, the buzz about Carter-Ruck on alternative media is getting louder again. Links to the BBC Newsnight report to YouTube are blogged, the video has been published on Wikileaks and the keywords “Trafigura” and “Carter-Ruck” are all over Twitter again.
You wonder if they will ever learn

oh come on Nick, we know it’s you you tart
All above board, move along
You clearly didnt read the small print in Gordon Browns PBR and the reference to ‘cake tax’
Ah, yes. Nulab to a tee. A tax on charitable donations. Nice one, Mandelscum. Not.
The £80.00 would be to cover luvvie expenses. Thes people are only generous with the money of others don’t forget. In the best tradition of champagne socialism.
I meant £20.00 of course. I musn’t be unfair to them.
But they’re beeboids, they’re never going to spend any of their own money.
When the ‘enviromentalist mob’ can arrange the simple tasks such as emptying my bins, cleaning the street drains and sweeping the streets, maybe we can discuss other matters, like graffiti. Until such times best to ignore. One would expect global temperatures to be rising, we are, geologically speaking, in an interglacial period.
this kind of lame beeb-bashing is normally associated with murdoch and rothermere owned news organisations
