Lord Lamont told ITV News…
“I think the PM is just human and Ed Balls is a pretty irritating person”
About fucking time.
Obviously a blatant attempt to scupper the speech that Dave is just about to make.
or an admission of guilt, which it is
Anyone noticed that the country is total fucked?
Poor Dave
Trying to be all butch by saying he will bring in a Law god knows when and yet again Clegg’s made him look like a wimp already by saying we can do it next week amending a Bill and enough with the weak waffling.
Like with Speaker Martin Dave will be forced to play catch up and change his mind and if there’s a ruling that Parliamentary Privilage is inadmissable (expect it soon) Dave’s going to look even sillier.
The Pigs are going to Court.
Parliamentary Privilage isn’t going to cut it.
Er ‘Cleggy etc’
You been on the bananas?
Loon.
you been smoking the naughty stuff again mate?
Today Nick Clegg, the Liberal Democrat leader, will claim that Brown and Cameron are both at fault over this issue.
“Listening to the two of them, anyone would think that they were powerless backbenchers rather than the two parties in parliament which have proved to be the real roadblocks to reform,” Clegg will say.
The Lib Dems will try to amend the constitutional affairs bill, which is currently going through parliament, to make it clear that parliamentary privilege cannot be used to stop MPs facing a criminal trial.
That’s far quicker than Cameron’s ‘act’ that has no timetable and might take years so would let the piggies off the hook.
Unless you are the type of arselicking ‘no mind of his own’ cun’t who likes letting piggies off the hook ? You do sound like it.
Fuckwit.
I’d like to fuck that Campbell scum up the backside with four feet of barbed wire, and then jiggle it about a bit.
Cameron has spooked Brown. Good. Gordon had to have a good old dither first though.
Bananas!
Leadership qualities, as valued by the armed services:
1. Dithering
2. Petulance
3. Sulking
4. Bullying
5. Clinging to a position even when proved wrong
6. Indifference to the fate of those you control
and last but by no means least
7. Utter fucking barking madness
Dave was going to give his great put down of Brown speech at 11.00. Labour have obviusly forced him to postpone and rewrite the whole thing.
First round to Gordon.
Rubbish. In this case Cameron forces Labour to (at last) act.
No points for Gordon, Labour’s bananaman. Following, not leading.
Labour were bleating on about the Tories ‘desperation’. Ha ha. Now Labour are dancing to the Conservatives tune on this.
Bottom of the class Gordon you fat sulking baby.
Bloody hell do the Labour party come up with any ideas any more? First Joanna Lumley sorts them out now every time cameron opens his mouth they adopt his policies / ideas. If they want to become tories they should say so.
didn’t Jim Devine admit to false accounting on TV?
Is the Whip being withdrawn from the tory lord too?
(Ouch!)
Probably busy eating bananas

If the bastard had any shame at all he’d be in a locked office with a bottle of scotch, a revolver and would be contemplating eating a bullet
He would miss.
Or shoot the person bringing in the tray.
He would probably drink the revolver and shoot himself with scotch
Trouble is he’d drink the scotch and throw the revolver away!.
KitKat is some sort of chocolate finger isn’t it?
Yes, I adore them.

We live in a Banana Republic
This is Gordon Brown, he lives in 10 Downing Street.
By day he’s an ill tempered madman, but when Gordon eats a banana he becomes…..
Bananaman!
Ready in his duty to impoverish the UK, and to send UK taxpayers money abroad at a moments notice to any despot around the world.
Remarkable how that snap of Milliband holding a banana and looking a total wally has become part of the political scenery. It did for Millibands’ pretensions to replace McSecretive in one hit.
A tribute to Brown’s dirty tricks department though– the carefully targeted picture was released by them in summer ’09 and Milli was a gonner thereafter.
Now all we need is a snap of Mcmental wearing a nappy and he’s finally done for.
Not just bananas – buying onions! Yes, handy to carry onions to invoke that sobbing for socialism moment. And due to the deman, India raises onion export prices…
NEEDS A NEW VOICE OVER
a freudian interpretation would be to say he is in fact devouring bananaboy milliband…….either in a sympathhetic magic inspired attempt to ingest his youthful non-maniacal qualities(much as warriors would eat the heart of their vanquished opponents in times past) or simply to destroy him as a physical entity before the inevitable leadership bid post defeat.
then again he might just be a bit low on potassium…….
He’s a bit low on Polonium too.
Hollow tipped umbrella on a well known auction website…
“One slightly used umbrella. Hollow point with poison injection mechanism.
Only used twice. Very effective when used with Ricin.
Field tests were carried out against two targets in 1978. One was successfully assassinated, the other made a recovery after several days of severe illness.”
Some of us think Gordo needs to up his dose of lithium…
http://www.medicinenet.com/lithium/article.htm
Lithium is used for the treatment of manic/depressive (bipolar) and depressive disorders. Lithium is a positively charged element or particle that is similar to sodium and potassium
Can we throw batteries at him instead of eggs
Thats KitKats fucked then.
And Fyffes
Another banan republic turns to shite.
The Brazilian wandering spiders or banana spiders are a genus of aggressive and highly venomous spiders found in tropical South and Central America and appear in Guinness World Records 2007 as the world’s most venomous spider, and are considered to be responsible for the most human deaths.
……..any potential Von Stauffenberg’s in either the Civil Service or the Labour party now know exactly which creepy crawly to drop into the fruit bowl.
Nah..if Brown bit the spider it would die.
It’s disappointing that the Smellygraph can’t spell ‘wean’.
Eating brown bananas he has squeezed out of his arse, more like. The mad fuck.

Seconded!
Why did Labour not cut ties with the three thieves as soon as it knew they were going to be charged? Complacency, because Parliamentary immunity might apply, or chaotic disorganisation?
Maybe it thought that by keeping them on board public opinion about them might not be so hostile – until convicted.
Gordon is going bananas. He is now planning to sell Dover to the French to help pay off the national debt that he has created.
http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/2843761/Fury-over-PM-Gordon-Brown-bid-to-sell-Dover-to-France.html
Can you imagine approaching the French cliffs of Dover!
They shoot bluebirds in France. The French do make good wine though, and smelly cheese.
I do a very good line in particularly smelly cheese
It’s about time a few ZanU-Lab ‘Honorable Gennums’ were to be seen breaking rocks on Dartmoor. But it’s a pity that no longer happens. Maybe they will be given ASBOs and sent out doing Community Work scraping up dog shite and other nasty things that appear on the streets after a weekends revely by the Liarbore Doley-scrounging constituency.
Labour PPCs already clear up the dog shite in my constituency, they do as they’re told!
So is Gordon Fife’s Banana?
Nah – he’s finally realised that we’re a banana republic, and is trying to promote (neo-classical endogenous) growth in the economy.
Took them long enough – desperate or what?
So, DC’s criticism of McBust’s failure to do so was “desperation” was it??
Well done McBust, always well behind the curve.
You know me, dither dither dither.
I’m bananas you know!
Any news about Baroness Uddin?
SSSHHHHHH !!!! Aren’t you worried about being called a racist ??
What’s wrong with being racy?
She’s free to go.
she is busy enriching herself….sorry our culture…as we speak…
Yes, she’s currently cooking me cheese on toast, and soaking her dentures in the bath.
They must have been reading on here
Damn.no I was’nt
What about that Uddin woman. Surely she is due to get collared
I think her case has been held up because they found a second case of troughing to the tune of £91K.
Apparently before she bought the miadstone flat she claimed her brother’s house, somewhere down south, was her main home, claiming a further £91K. The Times investigated and found she had never lived there so that also has now been referred to the police for investigation,.
91K! Ninety One Thousand Pounds! For fucks sake!
The thieving bitch!
Oh, and sources Nell? Anything to corroborate?
Take Care Dave: Altering the Act of Settlement may get rid of one problem but introduce another – MPs more exposed to State sanction if they don’t do what no. 10 wants.

gordon may have withdrawn the whip but labour’s legal officers are still advising these three. And those legal officers are the ones who told them to seek a defence under Parliamentary Privelege.
Since gordon is leader of the labour party I assume he has given his approval for his legal officers to support these three and for them to give this troughing trio that advice.
And who is paying for the advice one wonders.
All three qualify for legal aid.
These legal officers of course were nowhere to be found when the evil Labour junta wanted to crush leaks of embarrasing facts by the opposition MP Damien Green.
C*NTS!
Mr Brown eats even more bananas on tough days.
http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/2843206/Gordon-Brown-dumps-KitKats-for-banana-diet-in-Election-run-up.html
I’m surprised he finds time to eat anything after running three miles every day, looking after his sick kid, bawling on camera, talking shit and racking up his airmiles. Oh, and completely fucking up the UK’s economy.
All this and nine bananas a day?
Nutcase.
The average banana has 108 calories. So he’s getting 900 calories from bananas.
That just cannot be healthy (not enough protein).
perhaps he’ll die
Who ate nothing but bananas for a week for a Sun experiment
TAKE it from a guy who knows – bananas are NOT the answer.
Yes they are healthier than KitKats, but eating that many is playing Russian roulette with your health.
Let’s forget for the moment that it will make you feel lethargic, hungry and, eventually, render you impotent.
Eating nine bananas a day will send you, well, bananas. You’ll see the world in banana-vision. You’ll pick one up and put it to your ear when the missus calls.
And don’t look down when you go to the loo. Which you’ll be doing about 30 times a day.
My advice? Chuck in the odd apple.
http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/2843206/Gordon-Brown-dumps-KitKats-for-banana-diet-in-Election-run-up.html
Bad news I’m afraid. Gordon would need to eat 243 bananas to kill himself.
http://blogs.howstuffworks.com/2009/11/17/can-you-die-from-eating-too-many-bananas/
I found this little snippet quite appealing..
“Therefore, the place that people might get the idea that bananas could be toxic probably comes from the potassium that bananas contain. Despite the fact that potassium is an essential mineral, potassium can be toxic in large doses. It is so toxic, in fact, that potassium chloride is one of the substances used to kill people by lethal injection“
It’s the right thing to do.
Not with super genetically modified giant ones. One would take him out, and he wouldn’t have to eat it.you could batter him with it.

Give the *astard some salt with his bananas. Stick him a warm room. That will produce some Potasium Chloride.

Fox News had its best January in the history of the network, and was the only cable news network to grow year-to-year.
FNC also had the top 13 programs on cable news in total viewers for the fifth month in a row, and the top 13 programs in the A25-54 demographic for the first time in more than five years.
• FNC grew in double digits in both total viewers and the A25-54 demographic from January 2009. In prime time, it was up 22% in total viewers and 51% in the demo. CNN was down 34% and 37% and MSNBC down 26% and 38%. In total day, FNC was up 16% and 28%. CNN was down 34% and 41% and MSNBC down 28% and 39%. Last January all networks performed while with the Inauguration coverage. This month, the big political event was Scott Brown’s victory in Massachusetts, which FNC dominated in the ratings.
• Special Report with Bret Baier/Brit Hume was #1 for the 100th consecutive month.
• Fox Report #1 for 100th consecutive month.
• Sean Hannity had his best month ever (since it launched as Hannity).

Just before Cameron’s speech!
hoho. “No labour MPs will be prosecuted”
Wow!.. Labour normally operates in “Geological Time” when it comes to admission of a mistake; “snail-pace slow” is huge improvement, well done, guys.
If this ‘parliamentary immunity’ thing flies then I expect Jonathan Aitken and Jeffrey Archer to be looking at getting their convictions quashed as well.
The Parliamentary privilege argument is a ‘red’ herring.
Parliament is no ‘haven from the law’.
Legislators in countries using the Westminster system, such as the United Kingdom, are protected from civil action for slander and libel by parliamentary immunity whilst they are in the House. This protection is known as parliamentary privilege. Parliamentary immunity from criminal prosecution is not enjoyed by Members of Parliament under the Westminster system. This lack of criminal immunity is derived from the key tenet of the British Constitution that all are equal before the law.
Ref: Dicey, Erskine and May
point
Interesting contrast between Lord Hanningfield, who promptly resigned as a front bench spokesman and leader of Essex council when charged, and three other troughers who started whining ‘paliamentary priviledge’ when charged.
Notwithstanding this point, if any are found guilty of the charges laid against them, they should do time irrespective of their party allegiance. Defrauding the taxpayer is theft from all of us.

“That’s clever”
“What’s you’re name” she asked with a wink
“PussyFuck”
Boo hoo…
My name must be coffeesleep then.
Hm. My first thought is that this is good news, but on the other hand, even MPs are entitled to be presumed innocent until proven guilty.
Given that they have not yet been convicted of anything, was it really necessary to withdraw the whip at this stage?
A case when better late than never doesn’t really count.
exactly! It might prejudice their trials. er …

I wonder if it’s complete coincidence that the government are talking about giving prisoners the vote now that 3 of their own are looking at possible jail sentences?
Strangely enough, I tried to make that point on the BBC’s “Have your say” page on that topic, and it was rejected. I think they have an unwritten house rule that says “Thou shalt not criticise Labour politicians”.
A lot of prisoners owe their freedom to this government.
They really must be desperate.

Labour has always been the party of conviction politics.
The big issue is whether Parliament will acknowledge that Privilege should not extend to ordinary crimes.
Isn’t a whip a jar with lots of cash in it?
No, it’s something that MPs use when they’re with their rent boys. I’m sure there are plenty for whom withdrawing the whip is a harsh punishment indeed.
Why are we surrendering so easily?
“Aaqil Ahmed, a Muslim, thinks that the BBC should not give Christianity preferential treatment in religious broadcasting. Which would be fine, except that he happens to be head of religion at the BBC. It’s something for the Church of England synod to ponder when it debates tomorrow why the BBC’s coverage of Christianity has declined so markedly. Mind you, it’s hard to see why they bother. Mr Ahmed has already said that “we’ll listen to what they say but we’re clear that we know what we’re doing and we’ll stick to that”.

I wonder if all those Jewish Labour politicians like Barbara Roche, Jack Straw, and Margaret Hodge, who led the charge to open Britain’s borders to mass immigration, are having second thoughts about what they have done, now that Britain is becoming increasingly islamified?
Like any other Labour politician they’re gonna fuck off and let somebody else clean up the mess.
as ye sow so shall ye reap
I trust that Mr Ahmed would also support the view that as there are Christians in Pakistan that Islam ought not be granted preferential treatment in the state broadcast media of that land?
Perhaps a percentage reflecting declared ‘religion’ would be the better guide, though hopelessly bureaucratic?
The real issue is the existence and reach of the BBC, paid for out of a television receiver tax.
Reduce the BBC and let the market decide. There are already Mohammedan and Christian radio stations ‘free to air’. There will be no argument about ‘preferential’treatment’ in the market place.
Isn’t it strange? The only ones so far who have used the “tearful act” on TV is Alistair Campbell, and (later this week) Gordon Brown. Yet the BBC keep going on about David Cameron “shedding tears” when he has done no such thing publically.
Is this what the psychologists call transference and can the BBC’s pro-Labour bias get any more blatant?

This simple example of risk management will reduce the opportunities for Brown and the cabinet to slip up anywhere.
However it should be also be noted that even with map, compass and both hands, Brown is unlikely to manage to find his arse in the bath.
on the pace as usual -
Allows the Beeb to refer to the expenses scandal as involving 3 Independent MPs and a Tory peer
It is about time the whip was withdrawn from these MPs. By leaving it so long, Gordon Brown has yet again demonstrated his lack of judgement, and once again shown us why he is unfit to govern.
No wonder there are very deep divisions in the Labour party over Gordon’s so-called leadership. Each little faction is fighting to replace Gordon with its man (or woman), yet none of them has the guts to actually remove him. With the government fretting over coup attempts and in-fighting it has taken its eyes off the ball, and Brown has as good as given his approval to the three disgraced MPs.
