The iCampaign is really rolling, the Tories have been quick to respond to Labour’s advertising campaign on Mumsnet with one of their own and they are live-streaming an Osborne Q & A on Facebook right now. The social media battle has commenced…

“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.
OH to Guido daily scandal report
Julie Kirkbride, Mackay’s wife, has been chatting to several lobbying firms in the last month or so about work post-election. I’m told she is aiming for an annual salary of about £100,000 with flexible working patterns to fit around school holidays
http://blogs.ft.com/westminster/2010/02/julie-kirkbride-looking-for-a-lobbying-job/
I’m anti-social ! Sod this website stuff.
Come on, Gordon. Set out your vision.
He is busy at moment, saving Greece.
He jas just stopped blubbing about Lance Price’s revealations.
No wonder they are in deep shit!
So you can earn 49k and get the taxpayers to pay you for having children?
No wonder our nation is broke and can anyone spot the difference between New Labour and Blue Labour?
Brown’s vision, possibly to punish those who do not look likely to vote Labour –
Recent statistics showing UK property repossessions at their highest for 14 years have given rise to calls that Labour are deliberately targeting homeowners in the run up to the general election.
So, let’s think about this.
A portion (quite probably significant) of those reposessions are being implemented by banks propped up with public money.
The financial aid package, which this Government spent huge sums on promoting, has helped less than 300 home owners. Across the entire country.
Of the properties being repossessed, how many are being sold in public auction and how many are being diverted to either other organisations or individuals? I smell a very large rat here; someone is probably making a very nice nest for themselves through other people’s misery and the taxpayer is taking the hit.

why does Hoon not auto change to Huhne
Hoon standing down at next GE. No doubt has got something good lined up to supplement his 7 property empire created from the “parliamentary trough”.
Too late!

Vote the bitch out!
Which bitch is this, Cameron? What are the Tories extending Brown’s ludicrous “Tax credits” schemes for? Brown’s wheezes are wasteful, bureaucratic, error prone, don’t catch many who are entitled, and extend the power of the state. Oh …..
The tories will NOT scrap the tax credit scheme.
Yet another reason NOT to vote conservative then!
I am no fan of the tax credit scheme but let us examine the socialist time bomb this has become. Millions are now dependent on this to supplement their income -effectively Tesco’s (and others)keep their prices down because the taxpayer subsidises their wage bill.
Removing it will:
1. Crank up inflation -employers will raise prices to cover costs
2. Crank up the deficit and public sector borrowing – employers will sack some staff as they will not be able/willing to make up the shortfall, also fuelling inflation and possible a further bout of recession
Other than buying votes with our money,tax credits are a barking idea and a disincentive to work.
Removing them as they are so widespread would be difficult in good times and harder in a recession. The only way to remove them is to phase them out over time….and lose the next election as a result. Assuming Labour are in opposition,they would simply reinstate them once more.
Yes,they have screwed us again.
Why not just raise the tax threshold from the £4000 odd that it is at present to £10,000. No need for poxy tax credits. No need for nasty letters from the DWP when they over pay you.
But this would give the non-hardworking families something. So what! Aren’t we all hardworking compared to this idle bunch of whiners?
Geoff Hoon won’t have any police protection when he “retires” to his fraudulent property empire will he?
Hmmmm
He will now…
No he won’t my dads pension has gone
Do the train companies do a “Buy a railticket to Hoon’s house and get a free baseball bat” promotion?
Every*one*? I thought it was family income below 50k, not individual income?
why is it so bloody hard to find the osborne webcast?
Can you not see the banner at the top of this page?
Tool.
The link is above Guido is in to hitech don’t you know.
Lower taxes=lower tax credits – much lower.
Tax credits are a bloody stupid system that drags ordinary workers into three different tax systems, income tax, NI and tax credits. Each has its own, inconsistent rules. Income tax is cumulative; NI and tax credits aren’t. Income tax and NI are based on the individual’s income but tax credits are based on a couple’s combined income. Income tax and NI take money away and then tax credits give some of it back. And so on.
They could combine all these into a single tax, with credits for having dependent children, but that wouldn’t fill so many office chairs with public-sector bottoms, would it?
And we thought it was to complex for you plebs to work out.
Cameron can keep that ‘commitment’ simply by rejigging the Tax Return as you suggest Sir William and putting an allowance for each child on the form and calling it ‘Child Tax Credit’.
Job done. P45′s for all the seat polishers administering the present lunacy at HMRC.
Why the fuck should I pay one brass farthing towards other people’s kids?
Karen Matthews, for example, the bitch. Seven kids by five fathers.
Agreed. Gulags for Slags. Bring it on.
Gulags for Slags? How is that flagship policy Labour which the ‘do-nothing’ Tories would do nothing about getting on?
Because Useless Parents take their own Children Hostage and then Idiot governments pay them.
“Pay up or the Child gets Harmed”… How’s that different from Kidnapping?
In the game of politics, “family friendly” policies give all sorts of voters a fuzzy feeling. ahhhhh.
Your example wouldnt be the one they’d use in the P.P.Broadcasts or leaflets though.
How about just scrapping all fucking taxes? It’s my money and I’m keeping it.
That would be a tentative step in the right direction.
Exactly!
Scrap Taxes on Incomes is a good idea. Tax State created monopolies instead.
with credits for having dependent children?
No, they should be fined for having dependent children. The place is overpopulated as it is, why subsidise breeding. Want to have kids, do it with your own money in your own time.
Just stop taxing incomes, tax Government created monopolies (land (discount the Improvements on it) and IP) and Real Pollution(Not CO2).
Then use the Money raised to pay an Equal Citizens Dividend.
Scrap tax credits.
Where is the logic in taking too much money in taxes from the poorest workers, only to force them to fill-in intrusive forms giving PRIVATE financial information to the government (information that is NONE OF THEIR FUCKING BUSINESS, BY THE WAY) just so that the government can spend even more of our money in administering a complex and apparently unfathomable scheme to give these poor workers the wrong amount of THEIR OWN MONEY back to them?
It is a vicious and cruel and insane scheme. It is senseless, pointless, ridiculous, shambolic, crazy and totally fucking knob-end ass-hat backwards fucked up scheme designed solely to trap the poor into dependency on the state!
Labour are NOT helping the poor with this loony left scheme, they are actively HARMING the poor by it.
Why not let the poor KEEP their income? Raise tax thresholds to take the poor OUT of taxation altogether!
labour HATES poor people.
The Conservatives are failing to offer any alternative!
Vote UKIP.
Labour despise the poor, however they need them to stay poor and on the welfare / dependency plantation.
What the tories are doing in this regard is baffling, they should be offering hope and opportunity, instead they are, as on virtually all other issues, offering more of the same.
Quite extrordinary state of affairs, but this is Cameron all over, the heir to Bliar just can`t help himself.
I guess you can take any promises made via the social media with a big pinch of salt. Just like the idea of someone you know from arsebook being a ‘friend’.
Which, thinking about it, makes it the perfect and most appropriate medium.
Politicians certainly need to get out more, and that’s a fact.
Facebook is for teenage girls, men with no real friends and paedophiles.
The UK population has been infantilised – it does not want to hear the truth. As a result of 13 years of Brownomics, the country is staring into the abyss. If public spending is not cut, if middle class benefits are not cut, if the mess and squalour of Brown’s bloated state is not dealt with, then its Greece and worse for us!
Because of Brown’s stupid, stupid public spending incontinence and profligacy, we as a nation will soon be spending 50 billion of hard earned taxes simply to pat the interest on stupid Brown’s debt mountain! That is a scandal!
But you would never know it by listening and watching the BBC. That too is a scandal the non reporting of Brownomics in the media.
Don’t watch it.and don’t pay
My favourite is that if you are registered blind you get £1 (one) off. So you go blind but still have to pay £141 quid for what is now essentially a glorified radio.
Fucking great.
It’s “only” 3,000 pounds per working private sector worker per year.
A small price to pay for Brown’s Britain…

Don’t they get them on expenses ??

LOL
Not for me
nor me
lol the dirty bas****
On one receipt he deleted claims for hair dye and baby wipes but did not remove £5.51 spent on Huggies nappies, and £3.49 and £3.99 on bottles of red wine even though alcohol is not allowed under the rules.
Another shopping trip, claimed for in full, included claims for £5.96 on disposable bibs, £23 on women’s shoes, a £1.99 child’s comic, £1.60 and £1.55 comics, £2.88 on baby wipes and a £5 ladies’ jumper.
He then stopped submitting receipts for groceries but instead claimed the maximum available allowance, £4,800, on food from 2005 to 2008.
Didn’t Prince Charles want to be a tampon? He didn’t know that their manufacture produce a lot of carbon?
I just hope they get the dinner ready on time, and stop playing online fucking bingo.

They’re already on the edge of starvation so when the world economy goes “POP” they’ll be the first to go.
Thats shit I’ve got a mitsubishi zero.
Its the “pearl harbour” limited edition.
Mumsnet is owned by and run for over-privileged middle class bitches supported by their (spit) husbands. I believe in equality, but these kind of women are not the right kind of equal. When Gordon and I win the election, we’ll pump the middle class whores so hard they won’t know what’s hit them.
I hear Harriett’s very good at pumping. Lets face it she is fucking useless at everything else.
Brown is not a tosser young man. Either I, Ed or Peter do it for him depending on what mood he’s in.
Oh she pumps……oh yeah……mmmmmm……pumps hard…….!
With that quality of erotica, you are “Bad Al” Campbell and I claim my £5
Gordon is so inept he wouldn’t know what to pump.
This is good, because it makes the campaigning so much easier to avoid.
Let’s stuff the old polling station mallarkey and decide the election by an online game of World of Warcraft. Might actually give Labour a chance of winning so I’m sure they’d be in favour.
Let battle commence!
Or Call Of Duty Modern Warfare 2!
I bet Dave ‘Take No Prisoners’ Cameron would be a deft hand with the sniper rifle.

No, Mandy would be a’gobblin’.
Osborne would be a fairy (faerie).
For once, Brown would win.
He’s a Dark Mage with a Level 65 Area-Effect “Curse of Jonah” ward.
At the First sign of Danger he’d cast “Bunker-Teleport”.
Also anyone else think Ed Balls looks like a Morloc?
*Chuckle* I had an Orc Shammy called Gornod (ana) on WOW looked just like our illustrious leader but green, shame the Inn I had his Hearthstone set to didn’t look like No. 10.
I hate the way the BBC is covering Iran and fawning ‘oh it was twenty years since their glorious revolution’ bloody hell.
I thought it was 31 years since the Revolution(1979?)although I can understand your confusion as BBC News Channel is also running a separate piece concurrently to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Mandela’s release from prison. “Nkosi sikelel’ iAfrika”………………………………………..
The world will turn again
My mistake Mot yes i confused the two.
Mandela – a nasty, evil terrorist; but the BBC praise and worship him! Double standards, hypocrisy or what!
nope they did the same for that Twat Adams so consistent really. Its only Tories that are dirty baby killers
thats most unfair – most Tories insist babies are cleaned before killing them.
One day they will do a;
“30 years since Gordon Brown’s head exploded live on BBC TV at PMQ’s when asked about being a Soviet Spy”
All the MP’s whose clothes were splattered with the crap that blew out of his head managed to overclaim for their dry cleaning bill – nothing changes.
Just a (very) few more years and it will be 30 years since Dave, George and a few others made the mistake of insulting the girlfriend of a member of the uni rugby team and got beaten to a pulp for insolence. Might explain why they are such wimps today.
Yup, between the Iranian revolution and that black convicted terrorist’s release from prison, the BBC are having a left-wing self wank-fest today.
Mind you, even as a hard hearted bastard, even I have to admit that I was amazed that Mandela manage to forgive the whites and work towards peace and reconciliation the way he did.
I am sure that if any of us had been treated the way he was, we would have been after blood on our release.
Get back on your banana boat and fuck off back home darkie.
Ah, Dick Sniffin. Welcome back from the “Gays for Granny Bashing” rally.
What a stupid twat mandela is
“Under fifty grand eh? Oh goody! I’ll just reduce the ‘salary’ I draw from my small business to say 19k per annum. Retain the profits in the company and claim the tax credits in the meantime. “
let’s face it the MP’s are using the same scam’s notice how they always pay themselves pay rises, just under the tax rates they increase for higher earners so they don’t miss out.
I want to know what Cameron’s going to do for expectant working mothers with difficult constituency officers.
Gay porn?
Busters site?
What on earth have the many users of the web done to deserve a live stream of George Osborne. I have little time for either Gordon or Dave but have to admit that the one thing which endears Dave to me is the story about him and Bonkers shoving George’s head down a toilet and flushing it until he called Oik. Admittedly it was behaviour more becoming of a 10 year old than a 20 year old but what the hell…..
all power to immature adults.
Gordon wants to put sanctions on Iran well with what money?
Other peoples. As always.
Does anyone think Mr Walpole will be re-elected this May
Brown’s corporate tax regime is winning businesses over, not.

Diageo and Unilever both very pissed off, its another fine fiscal mess you’ve got us into Gordon.
The conservatives are committed to paying people for Sex.
That is what Child Credits are at it’s lowest level.

OR as the slogan has it :
Can’t feed ‘em ? : Don’t breed ‘em.
When a hostage is taken, the kidnapper says “Pay up, or they get harmed”…
Doesn’t that sound EXACTLY like the excuses for Paying Breeders?
Like it!!!
Take the “Pill”" and chill
Well my moto is take the “P i l l” and chill
why is (P i ll) modded?
And it’s 2 T’s in motto D’oh
Mr Fawkes alledgedly enjoyed a few p i l l s back in his raver days.
So that’s settled then, have a kid get paid.
What about the single people or married couples who choose not to breed? Where’s our gelt eh? Where’s our deal? Why do we always have to shell out for others? Typical bloody Socialism.
Why should breeders get paid by the state to have snotted nosed brats. This would only be acceptable if we have National Conscription for our armed forces of 3 years, without any opt outs for the rich and wealthy and those who want to go on to higher education, university, etc,. And that will include ALL the ethnic minorities who should have no opt outs and no choices.
Frankly this scheme is a recipe for disaster, like all child payments, it discriminates against the childless, supports the feckless, undermines decency and morals and finally, allows certain parts of our society to outbreed others with the certitude of eventually seizing control.
Have a kid, pay for it yourself, sex isn’t for alms it’s for life of drudgery.
Interesting that when the ruling came in that single parents with children over 12 would be moved onto JSA rather than Income Support (in true Orwell mode, mostly claimed by those who don’t earn) three out of the four serial single mums (total 9 sprogs by 5 different fathers) got pregnant again.
You guessed it, #4′s youngest is still only 8.
If you are married, self sufficient and don’t have children, this Government hates you!
It could only happen to a compassionate Conservative.
A mayor in Kent has been banned from keeping animals for 18 months after admitting failing to get veterinary treatment for his dying kitten, the RSPCA has said.
Edwin Watt-Ruffell also admitted failing to provide flea treatment for the five-week-old pet which ended up dying in August last year.
Watt-Ruffell, the Conservative mayor of Margate in Kent, was given a 12-month community order, ordered to carry out 80 hours’ unpaid work and told to pay £2,000 in costs by Sittingbourne magistrates
Who gives a shit. It’s a fucking cat. How did the RSPCA get involved anyway? Poor bloke probably belatedly realised the cat was sick, took it to the vet/RSPCA and instead of saying ‘thanks we’ll do our best’ they fucking fine him.
Memo to self: If cat gets sick toss the fucking thing in the canal with a brick wired round its neck.
80 hours unpaid work over a fucking dead cat? 2000 quid?
That judge is obviously one of those pernicious of breeds. A fucking cat lover. None but a cat lover [spits] would give a shit about a dead cat.
I’d want a retrial in front of a judge who wasn’t a throwback to some bizarre Egyptian cult of cat worship.
oh do be quiet, I’m trying to sleep.
Private Eye has had a bit to say about the RSPCA getting very nasty and downright vindictive against folk whose animals get sick. Occasionally magistrates and judges see through their manufactured evidence as hapless farmers and old dears are paraded into court to protest their innocence but Private Eye is of the opinion that the whole purpose of these show trials is simply to raise the RSPCA’s profile because they’re not getting the donations they once were.
Possibly because more people have realised that charities for humans deserve support before charities for fucking cats.
They’ll be getting none from this councillor either I bet. Or his (presumably) animal loving family.
The RSPCA are not nice people.
Just another lobbying organisation with their own loony agenda. Should be right up there with the rest of the fake charidees.
One or two others are getting as bad. Some of the RSPB’s actions and utterances are not entirely in keeping with political neutrality.
Private Eye…yes I watched that twat Hislop on HIGNFY repeat last night. He really was self-satisfied with his reply on global warming. Totally proven to be wrong, but still
Last summer a local chavette single mum over the road had two dogs – A staffie and a Rottweiler in her upstairs maisonette. She would disappear for days on end and the dogs howled constantly while she was absent.
This went on morning noon and night. I phoned the local council who advised me to tell the RSPCA but the RSPCA asked me to phone the council again who said they didn’t have a dog warden to investigate the problem – I found out later they did.
Upon phoning the RSPCA again they told me I was not qualified to say the animals were in distress so they would not take any action.
About a week later the Police went in to investigate and the place was full of cats and kittens plus the dogs – Animal shit everywhere.
Damn the RSPCA.
I notice they are very quiet over the slaughter of animals for Halal meat. Scared of the Muslim backlash, the fuckin’ cowards.
I conspired in the murder of millions of people in Iraq, Afghanistan, Serbia… and I got tens of millions of dollars. Ain’t life grand. As Gordon’s hero Stalin once said, the death of one kitten is a crime, punishable by the full force of the Law, whilst the genocide of one million women and children is a mere statistic, to be rewarded by Halliburton, Blackwater, JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs…
That’s okay Tony. You banned fox-hunting. That’s what is important.
All those foxes can now die peacefully in bed surrounded by their family. Just like in Beatrix Potter. And in my fucked up head.
Or, in the hugely increased numbers of fox deaths spotted on streets in the countryside and in suburbia.
Since Tony’s magnificent fox hunting ban, the amount of road-kill seems to have gone ballistic.
Once again meddling with things they don’t understand.
Sod that. I see a fox round here, and it’s out with the 12-bore. Or ring the local hunt…..
Seems a strange approach. As a townie I assume a 12 bore is Dave and 11 members of the shadow cabinet. Got to admit that being torn to pieces by dogs seems more humane than being exposed to that lot.
Is that not – considering his Mayoralty -
80 of his l-o-n-g-e-s-t speeches ?
try a real animal cruelty bastard

Lance Price on Radio 5 with Richard Bacon. Bacon is SHOUTING at Price for possibly ruining Labour’s chances of victory for outing Brown at a nutter.
Any idea of the BBC being impartial shot to pieces, take a listen now.
The BBC should suspend bacon for the duration of their election coverage. He is utterly incapable of impartiality!
Bacon is a joke, he’s so angry that anyone dare risk Labour losing and that the book is fantasy. Yet when he interviewed the bloke who was Bush’s speech writer Bacon never once accused him of sexing things up?
Give him a break, the Huhne’s on smack.
Richard Bacon is a known d*ug a*dict.
I’d like to give the little beeboid toerag a smack round the head with a fuckin’ baseball bat.
I can’t get over the fact Price is being given a platform to promote his book, on the phone with the other Mr campbell, promoting his book, the news paper on the Today programme, promoting the independents coverage of the book (this posting promoting his book – oh sod!). I love the ethics of the beeb, no advertising, however, come on the bacon show and sell your book, some on jonathan woss and sell your film or song or play or book…then the politically impartial bit, well come the glorious day when this lot are out, the beeb is surely in for a lot of change.
It is interesting that Price has ‘turned’ – amazing what the lure of book sales can do.
He worked with Campbell, so you would expect him to be loyal- he always has been when on the State Broadcaster
He worked with Campbell, so you would expect him to be loyal -
or psychologically flawed !!!
AND, not OR
is that a boolean equation
My wife and I were in the kitchen this morning, when passion got the better of us and within seconds I had her bent over the worktop, and we both had the orgasm of a lifetime.
However, the staff at Magnet called the police
I was in the store at the time. Your attempt at love-making bought a tear to my eye. On reflection, I think it must have been caused by your elbow.
Yet again, yesterday’s PMQs demonstrated Gordon Brown’s all powerful grip over the Parliamentary Labour Party. I find it really sinister watching tame Labour MPs, one after another, standing up and asking a question that was clearly penned by Gordon Brown himself. It’s a wonder they don’t give him a 30 minute standing ovation following each carefully crafted answer.
A point well made but fear not – it will still be exactly the same whoever wins the election. The last time a Tory MP voted aginst his party was Eric Pickles when the catering committee took pork pies off the menu.
More than 188,000 people have called a police recruitment hotline to inquire about 60 jobs.
North Yorkshire Police’s phone line crashed on Monday, the first day of a campaign to recruit officers, when it received 20,000 calls.
A new number was issued and 168,000 people called it on Wednesday. The line is only open between 1700 and 2000 GMT.
Source: BBC
Excuse me, 188,000 enquiries from a limited area! What is going on in the jobs market in North Yorkshire?
Surely this is not panic, is it?
And the jobs are actually for their HR dept to deal with the mass redundancies they will be performing in the coming cuts…..
Naaah. That’s just normal when you’re phoning the police. It was probably the same 100 people ringing two thousand times each trying to get somebody to answer the phone.
It’s just ‘conditioning’ the public. If it’s not an ‘emergency’ we don’t give a shit. And even then we don’t give a shit.
The police don’t answer the phone unless it’s a 999.
180,000 people clamoring to scramble aboard the Great Parasite Sector Gravy Train.
I was Banned from B+Q today
the shop assistant asked me if i wanted decking
i got the last laugh hahahaha
i hit him first
This morning I went into B&Q for a hoe. The assistant inquired heh ho?. I left the store hoe-less.
You should have asked for a heave-ho. The entire staff would have been instantly on hand to assist you.
If the Prime Minister would care to visit our well stocked store we’d be more than happy to demonstrate to him our wide range of hoes suitable for all soil types.
Alexander McQueen must have had a recent visit from Jonah.
He really is the Damian from The Omen.
I believe the last straw was when Eric Pickles came to his shop and asked to be fitted for a new suit.
There are no jobs – almost everyone under 25 is unemployed – and they cant go to Uni either…
For once the cuts are going to have a positive effect. By reducing the number of uni places there will be less need for them to lay on remedial classes to get the weaker arrivals up to GCSE standard. Does anyone really think the terminally thick benefit from uni – although their favourite unis (Bournemouth and Chichester) are nice places for them to waste their time.
