Max Clifford says…
“Most people want to read nasty things about people, not nice things.”
Maybe if they really wanted to “decontaminate the Labour brand” with business people, they shouldn’t have totally buggered up the economy?
Just a thought.
“Guidogram subscribers saw this broadcast last week…”
..not to mention Iain Dale’s readers
Not particularly funny either. Miss Nomates should be spoof interviewing the New Labour shower of Shite.
Latest from the Socialist Republic of Pontypridd is that the selection “carve up” to choose a replacent for “retiring” MP, dr Kim Howells, has been suspended by harriet Harman. Apparently all safe seats are to fanny only short lists. Zeig Heil…
Maybe they’re planning to parachute a single candidate in because they’re planning a surprise election? Rumours are flying about all over the place today…
http://cogitodexter.wordpress.com/2010/01/25/are-we-in-for-a-surprise-general-election/
No , no, no. Completely the wrong time just now; it will all go wrong.
Just wait a few months and things will be much, much better.
Just think how GB would feel if it all went wrong and everybody started blaming him for not waiting just a bit longer.
Hopefully all the Labour no-tailers will be mainly wearing Haqibs.
That would make a spectacle in the House, and no less than we deserve.
I am just so ‘effin happy about all this diversity, and turning this country into a Caliphate.
Looking forward to the Saudi style of motoring … No wimmin drivers.
No more Harriet Harridan crashing the car while yakking the phone.
Sorted
Except the one she has lined up for her husband, of course!
Nepotism trumps equality!
UKIP are a sorry shower of shit.
true lol!
Even on second viewing the interview with lord pearson still seems a silly waste of time. He’s an intelligent man who doesn’t want Britain to be dominated by islam. And what is wrong with that?
Apologies if i misunderstood it and it is meant to be satire – as in showing the absurd lengths to which labour/conservative types will go to smear ukip.
Exactly Lord Pearson was polite, courteous and correct. What was there to laugh at?
His choice of party, thats pretty amusing.
So is yours.
We use Polonium flavoured tea to make our trouble makers disappear.
When Ms Nomates went off to interview the Moslem Iranian democracy campaigners in Downing Street there wasn’t a burqua to be seen, which is really a (slight) argument in favour of Lord Pearson’s argument for a ban on the wretched things.
I’m not voting for Lord Pearson. I’m voting for UKIP in order that you can elect to vote for a British MP or PPC to our restored sovereign Parliament next year.
Westminster MPs Have £7,000 Postage per Year — But Soldiers’ Postage to be Taken Away
Westminster MPs from the three major parties each get £7,000 per year free stationery and postage — but Ministry of Defence “budget cuts” will soon see the British Forces Post Office (BFPO) facilities closed down which will dramatically increase the costs of sending our soldiers letters and parcels when they are stationed abroad.
Under current Parliamentary expenses rules, stationery can be ordered from the supplier for use in direct connection with a Member’s duties. In the course of a financial year, an MP is entitled to be supplied free of charge with original House of Commons stationery up to the value of £7,000. This includes the cost of the stationery itself and postage on pre-paid envelopes. MPs may also purchase original House stationery (but not pre-paid envelopes) using their Incidental Expenses Provision or Communications Allowance.
Our Armed Forces have however been advised that the BFPO facilities in mainland Europe will be shut from September 2010.
Personnel and their families deployed in Europe currently enjoy the same postal rates as the UK. Withdrawal of this long established tradition will further erode personnel’s ability to communicate with their families in the UK and safe receipt of parcels, etc. through a secure network.
It also means soldiers’ families will have to pay the full rate to send parcels and letters overseas.
In April, the Government quietly announced the closure of more than one in seven military post offices to save £1.7 million. Some 11 mail centres across mainland Europe, including in Brussels, Brunssum, Ramstein, Stavanger, Karup, Naples, Rome, Milan, Lisbon and Valencia, are set for closure.
The wife of a serving soldier has now launched a petition which asks the Prime Minister’s office to reconsider the decision to remove BFPO from mainland Europe. All readers are encouraged to sign the petition which can be found here http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/SaveBFPO/e.

I thought this interview that Emily did with UKIP was a disgrace. You made gorgeous Emily cover up her face, and even hide her new hairstyle. I think someone should be hung drawn and quartered for that decision.
Guy News beaten by the French http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4860987656043166860#docid=3421011027020008894
I find this bourka entirely acceptable.
Guido, an idiot has taken over your blog.
Who the next chairman of the Lobby will be?
Sorry Guido but that really isn’t very interesting to me as scoops go.
Its not a scoop its Guidos usual NWO propaganda, just in time for the comming GE.
guido is here to make sure the Tories get in and pick up where labour left off to kill off what remains of our democracy for a global banking cartel and its political wing – the bilderberg group.
notice how guido has never covered the tax draining communist purpose, even though it undermines every aspect of cilvil service and the media!.
Drat, suppose you know Guido is a lizard as well?
Is that because lizards have fawked tongues?
Guido “V” Fawkes?
Guido, If you really cared you would be doing more to overturn this 70 year secret nonsense, instead your lot are going to just go along with it! and you will let them get away with it too.
Oh and you really need to watch that Islam demographics video that someone sensibly keeps posting and which seems to bounce off your Teflon coating.
This 70 year embargo on the truth of what happened to Dr. Kelly is a disgrace. Why is it not leading the bulletins for the TV and radio news. Nothing to do with BBC bias I hope?
Now I loathe Islam as much as the next westerner ,and i’ve argued for years that Islam should be proscribed in western liberal democracy ( yes I know thats illogical, but the alternative is the message of the video), but are the figures in this video really correct ? For a start is the Muslem population of europe really 50 million, even the SIOE put it at about half that.
A lounge lizard, big G?
There’s nothing like a bit of success to rile the pathetic.
She’s all tied in Notts!
What a twat!
How are things in Belgium this afternoon. Have any more Presidents declared themselves?
Hmmm hunni
And?
Outstanding! The best yet!
How appropriate that Chris Morris has just had his new film shown at Sundance this weekened.

BBC refusing to show it naturally
England swings.
So does Chemical Ali.
Why do the Iraqis get justice and we don’t?
Is that a new name for Alistair the depressed ?
Why am I hearing rumors of an election being called tomorrow?
It’s the voices in your head. Happens to me quite a lot.
It would get Gordon out of having to appear before the Chilcot enquiry before the election.
I doubt it. But if the ONS confirms that 300bn quid has bought 1bn quid of recovery then I expect Brown will be swaggering onto our screens proclaiming that the ‘tough decision’ to borrow 300bn quid (so far) had been vindicated by 1bn quid of growth and that the recession which had fuck all to do with him in arriving is now over. Just as long as we borrow 200bn quid next year as well.
With the BBC giving it a son et lumiere performance, beaming presenters proclaiming an evangelic economic redemption by the Maximum Imbecile, handy graphics emphasising ‘growth’ and completely failing to mention deficit and debt this would be the best chance Brown ever gets to ride a wave of optimism into an election.
I still think he’ll bottle it though. But if he does go for it then it will be final confirmation that all the news between now and June 3rd is guaranteed bad news. And this knowledge has overidden Brown’s natural tendency to do nothing unless somebody lights a fire under him. And even then it is generally the wrong choice.
Naaah. June 3rd will be the election date. If Brown is gathering the cabinet it is only to tell them to booklots of TV appearances to proclaim the economic miracle of ‘grwoth’ purchased for a mere 300bn quid (PLUS interest) of your kids money to generate 1bn quid of ‘growth’. Mob the TV studios. Don’t let those bastard Tories get a word in edgeways.
I think he’s going for March – watch him in the press conference this morning – more spaced out than Hitler and Goerring together.
He’s convinced himself that he is now God and his judgment is all prevailing.
Gordon Brown – call the election so we can increase the unemployment figures by one – the most important 1 !!!
March really wouldn’t surprise me. The Chilcot announcement was what convinced me it was likely (let’s face it, he’s not really going to agree to appear before the enquiry this side of the election), but there is also the little matter of the budget. Surely even Gordon can see that it’s not going to help his election chances to have a budget just before an election that gives out the simple message: “sorry, folks, the economy is completely fucked”.
The increase in terror threat level is a further clue. That is surely political and nothing to do with security.
Hmmm. You could be right. I do hope so. The sooner the Labour Idiocy is ended the better.
But I still expect Brown to cling in there until the last moment. The power…the power…the photo opportunities…the proclamations…
Naaaah. He’ll not give that up until he absolutely has to. June 3rd (or later).
The General Election will be held in March.
It is the only way Gordon Brown can prevent the Tories spending the 18 million pounds they have on posters and watnot.
Propaganda wins elections.
Even an infantile moron like Gordon knows that.
Bob Ainsworth and the other members of Brown’s government who say it will be held in May are dissembling because convention dictates the PM calls the election not diwits like Ainsworth. If it were to be held in April that is only four weeks difference which is insufficient time to wrongfoot the tories as the Conservatives would have spent most of their Election war chest by then.
So that means Brown is going to the country in March.
Am I the only one who does not think they ca take anymore of this total bollocks;
“Our cuts are deeper than yours – oh I can’t tell you what they ARE!”
“Our investment is bigger than yours – oh I can’t tell you what they ARE”
“All people between 16yrs and 90 yrs will be guaranteed jobs paying at least £234,529 per annum – this figure may be tweaked downwards by the odd £234,529 give or take a £”
and on and on.
I am going to save my sanity and ignore every paper,news programme and blog and see you all on the other side after May 6th.
I will be the bloke outside Downing Street on Friday May 7th with a 2 metre wide banner;
“Brown – now f*uck off back to Scotland you evil git”
I’m with you, mate. Drives one up the fakkin wall, doesn’t it?
I have serious concerns regarding Northern Ireland.MCDOOM has just arrived there.
I believe McDoom is descended from Strongbow McDoom who kicked the whole thing off in 1169
Nice to see “Swiss”(we’ve missed him) giving evidence before Chilcot and admitting that he had absolutely no military experince prior to being appointed to Ministry of Defence. Perhaps the panel,whilst questioning him about the “cock-up” in Basra would ask if he found it difficult splitting his time between the MoD and the Scottish Office ? So as well as cutting back on the heliocopter budget,McBust also felt he could have a part-time Secretary of Defence too ?
What about the Head of Doncaster Child Services?
He actually admits that he had no relevant job experience when he took the role – he had previously worked in food factories.
I suppose kids eat food,but I can’t (and neither could he) see any relevant links.
He still took home a £105,000 salary = £5,688 net per month.
Oh, don’t worry. South Yorkshire child services will be fine now.
“The Inspire/Aspire project has been established to test whether social marketing approaches can help us to understand and influence the aspirations, attitudes, opinions and behaviours of children and young people throughout the South Yorkshire sub-region. The LGYH Regional Improvement and Efficiency Partnership is funding the scoping phase of the project because they want to see whether a collaborative approach across South Yorkshire can instigate change.”

More fucking arseholes, bedwetters and box-tickers with their fucking away-days and blue-sky thinking and 50K a year non-jobs.
More of Brown’s fucking 300bn quid of borrowing frantically trying to look busy and deliver 1bn quid of ‘growth’. Where’s Chemical Ali when you need him?
Oh fuck.
Thank God you put that in plain English. Your award is in the post!
Nobody who knew anything about Social Work would have taken the job !!!
You missed it. It was held in secret last week. The people lost and the Government got in. Full results to be released in 70 years time!
Maybe. But the results of the PR referendum promised in the 1997 Labour manifesto should be out in only 57 years. And last years Lisbon Referendum will be out in 69 years.
I’M STILL HERE. BECAUSE I STILL HAVE A JOB TO DO.
THEN DO YOUR JOB ALL OVER ED’S FACE AND THEN FUCK OFF
Indeed, that is the right thing to do. Like marrying my beard, Sarah. That was indeed, the right thing to do.
Save some for me.
D’you know Mr Oaten, I will.
Des Browne at the Chilcott Enquiry.
Now,do I recognise that accent?
Of course – it’s SCOTTISH!
Where’s bloody Hadrian when you need him?
I wake up and the radio and TV are full of them,the journalists are Scottish,the politicians,the judges,the football managers – it goes on and on.
Nurse,the screens!
och eye, I agree wiv ya Jimmy, the fuckin’ scots have taken ore evryting includin’ porridge – fancy a dance or twirl son?
Yeah, every day it seems that we have Naughtie (Scot) on the Toady programme interviewing some Scot.
Scots make up about one-twelfth of the British population, so a Scot-Scot interview should happen once in every 144.
Seems like sound maths to me. Even more staggering is the fact that there are 60 million Britons and 6 Billion foreigners. That means they’re getting 100 times more sex than us!!
Sorry have I miss read this, the Scot’s get 100 times more sex than we do! Whats up with them is the telly crap up there or what?
Pearson may be a decent type, but he comes across as rather stuffy, slow-thinking and old-fashioned and is not likely to win over many voters, especially after the hyper-active Farage.
Loved the bit about euroskeptic muslims.
The question is though – would they be eligible to join UKIP if they refused to takeoff their Burqa ? We should be told
Only if they can prove that they’ve been native British back to the last ice age.
Showing my extreme density here – but what has happened to Farage ?
He is a bloody good media performer, does great speeches in the EU – so what is he doing now ? He hasn’t been sidelined has he ?
He’s wandering round boozers in Berkshire apparently in a bid to unseat the lovely John Bercow.
That explains it all now – “Bercow” – “Burqa” Obviously Farage thought the policy up after that pint of “Fullers” in the Snug of “The Bull and Butcher”
with a leader that sounds like his ancsestors were French?
‘Farage’ is a very olde English name.
Damn!
They hanged the wrong Ali (stair).
Everyone should watch this about Brown:

“I’ll tax you 50p in the pound like that”
The blonde loves the camera. I would most certainly lend her one!
what is this post referring to? could Guido give us a clue? thanks
Good to see at this morning’s presser that Gary Gibbon shows no sign of wanting to be a ‘patsy’..
I see Jonah is now flying off to save Northern Ireland.
Back to the “Troubles” then.
NO ! NO ! NO !
Aren’t they in enough trouble already ??
Surely something can be rescued from this situation ?
As soon as Gordon ‘Everything I touch turns to shit’ Brown turns up, they are DOOMED !!!
By the way seeing Marty McGuinness talking about how he’d devoted his life to the ‘process’ was sickening. That part of his life which wasn’t spent arranging for the British soldiers to be bombed, beaten and killed, natch…
Don`t forget McGuiness`s decades of silence, regarding his raping paedophile father and brother. Something the BBC seems unable to mention, except in sanitised passing.
The way to get rid of all the arsholes in Parliament of all parties is to vote for True Democracy, which would also give we the people the power to punish the Barstewards as well.
Give yourself the power check out http://www.gopetition.com “True Democracy in the UK”
If you like it fight for it.

You don’t have enough bandwidth for streaming this. I get 3 seconds then a 10 sec pause. Before you ask, I have Virgin Media 50 Mbit broadband so it;s your crap computer not mine.
It will probably work fine at 3 am when there are a lot less people using the net.

Does UKIP banning the burqa mean that Halloween will now have to be cancelled? UKIP won’t be allowed to get away with this, I am now launching a Halloween pagan jihad against them so Pearson and that big strange looking man/woman? UKIP member had better watch out. Talking of scary things, Jonah Brown and the Irish Jonah, Cowen are meeting re; Norn Irn. Better get the sandbags up around the gate and the bullet proof vests back on, with these two hapless gobshites sticking their oars in we can be sure it’s all about to go tits up big time and i’m not talking about an Iris Robinson sex position here! I saw two NI ‘politicians’ squabbling like two demented auld hens on the tv earlier, what a pair of wankers! Why can’t they just sort it out and get on with it.
Brown’s “growth” is like a kid spending £300.00 on taxi’s to increase the income from his paper round by £1.00
Nope, it’s like a kid buying 300 quids worth of taxi rides on a CREDIT CARD to raise his paper round income by a pound.
I was gong to stand corrected, but it is slightly worse it’s like a kid buying 300 quid worth of taxi rides on a CREDIT CARD that he has lied to obtain, to raise his paper round income by a pound.
and then tries to pay back with monopoly money.
We are SOO fucked.
It’s worse than that. He’s going to spend another 200 quid on his credit card next year just to keep his extra pound ‘pay-rise’.
oh but he gives all the poor children free sweeties that he has “taxed” from the newsagent.
I wonder what would happen if the newspaper went out of business
no papers, no sweeties for poor children, no extra poond of income, no taxi rides ooooops
5 years = £1000.00 spent
5 years = £5.00 growth
More like, he keeps paying the monthly credit card bill, with the same credit card.
Oh God. Jonah is off to Belfast to sort out the NI Peace Process where the Assembly appears in danger of imminent collapse!! Pray for us all!
After saving the global banking system singlehandedly and ensuring that the UK was best placed entering the recession it’ll be “a piece of piss” for him surely.
What’s the betting that “Toenails” has already got the press release ahead of the 10pm News as “Pravda” leads with headline: “Gordon Brown intervenes to save Northern Ireland Peace Process from collapse”
god wont help you.
Meanwhile Dr North, Delingpole and Anthony Watts bring down the IPCC

Strikes me as odd that the chap who couldn’t comment at Teather’s office couldn’t find anyone to comment, given that he’s her chief of staff!!
Oh dear
I bet that Sarah Teather can take a punch, she looks bobby solid
Chief of staff???? Bit of a grand job title for tea boy perhaps.
Yawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwn.
Nice one, Bagpus.
British jobbies for British MPs
If you want to find out about the really important things going on re our corrupt government ,read The Slog.
Good move by UKIP which will pull in more voters.
People who have a problem with banning the Burqa wouldn’t have voted UKIP anyway.
I myself don’t agree with banning the Burqa.Pretty pointless to tackle the symptom and not the cause IMO.
UKIP will get more votes from the disaffected Conservative supporters and folk not happy voting B&P.
don’t have a view on the burkha issue but doubt ukip will have any relevance in the forthcoming GE.
Witless says it all
Which is exactly why you will wake up in 30 or so years time to a Muslim dictatorship in the UK instead of the Christian, NuLiebor/Cons rotating 4 year dictatorship which we all know and love and have got quite used to.
I don’t ever see that this country will be dominated by muslims…numerically over time perhaps but in real control … not going to happen.
Read up on demographics. Do the math(s). It isn’t rocket science.
Call me Infidel….I know the demographics ..read what I said not what you want to hear…demographics is one thing ..control is another. Rocket science is for space… of which you and ‘I am Sick’ have plenty between your ears. Nobody but disgruntled cons misfits and deadenders gives a flying fuck about ukip.
I
Think a lot of you are underestimating the rise of the B=P, this site removes most posts that mention them but if you go to un censored political sites you will find that they have growing support from all sections of society.Removing their mention from this site is like pretending that we do not have any immigrants. If they are to be defeated they first have to be recognised.
Good nickname, you live up to it admirably.
UKIP are interested in one thing only, making the breakthrough into the HOC, 1 to 5 MP`s is the target. For a party formed only in 1994, that would be nothing less than sensational progress.
Then, as they say, the cats really will be among the fluttering pigeons.
Cameron will win this one, though it is pretty certain he will soon be seen in the same light as both Bliar and McShite.
Thanks do my best..sad to say from 1 to 5 (assuming they get them) MPs since 94 can hardly be called sensational .. uninspirational perhaps. Have you tried upping the tablets to help with the delusions.
UKIP will cost the conservatives dear in the key marginals. I’ve always been a slave to my key marginal but then life on the road is a cruel mistress!
Odd. You say yourself its a pointless law that you don’t agree with.
Have you thought through the prospect of the law actually being implemented – the police going round arresting and fining people for wearing clothes that the state does not like?
I’d hope the one good thing about the UKIP would be a commitment to not cluttering up the legal system with stupid and useless “something must be done” laws.
Sockpuppet:
Don’t worry about the quality feel the width.
Will it lose UKIP votes?
Will It gain UKIP votes?
I reckon the latter.
Whether it becomes law or not, or even if it is adopted as policy is irrelevant, UKIP are getting lots of free publicity and the added bonus of pissing off the PC nazis.
It`s win win as far as UKIP are concerned.
Outside the unholy trinity of the MCB, PC chattering classes and Libertarian loonocracy, most people don`t like the Islamist cultural colonisation of Britain, one bit.

Story
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_prem/8479331.stm
The quarterly GDP to December 2009 was reported as £315 billion by national statistics. To annualise, multiply by 4. That gives GDP currently at £1.26 trillion.
GDP before the recession started in 2008 was reported at £1.45 trillion. The downturn in GDP expressed in Sterling is not 6% but 15%, if the truth be told.
The £ was in 2008 was $2. It is now $1.62. In US$, the recession has taken a GDP of $2.9 trillion down to $2.04 trillion. That makes a 30% decline! If the £ falls again whch is not impossible, we head north from there.
Government revenues to April 2008 were £606 billion. To April 2009 they were £496 billion. Darling forecast them to be £498 billion to April 2010. But we know the recession went on until at least August, and the supposed ‘upturn’ is anaemic at best. It is more likely that the 2010 figure is far too optimistic, despite Darling confirming it in the PBR.
I might suggest £440 billion as a more likely outturn – a 25% decline in government revenues over two years.
Interestingly the government slid a £60 billion drop in their forecast expenditure figure into their December accounts. My guess is that this was done as an accounting ‘fix’, so they can claim their borrowing figure will be on track at the budget, despite a £60 billion decline in revenues.
It could well that the collapsing fiscal picture will persuade Brown to run to the polls before people fully take in the incredible unprecedented fiscal disaster that he has created.
We are so fucked.
So very fucked.
And then the surviving Labour MPs will be shrieking from the cheap seats about Tory ‘cuts’ and how it’s all so unnecessary.
I could puke.
This is the worst economic crisis since 1381
You are right about that!
