The ‘Donkey Jacket’ Remembered
For many younger people Michael Foot is most famously remembered only for turning up to a remembrance service at the Cenotaph wearing a ‘donkey jacket’.
It was the Press Association’s legendary Chris Moncrieff who broke the story after receiving a phone call that day after the pubs had closed. Walter Johnson, a Labour MP with little love for Foot, had called Moncrieff to complain “I was watching this morning and was disgusted to see that the leader of Her Majesty’s opposition looked more like an Irish navvy than a party leader.”
Moncrieff put the story with quotes out on the PA wire. A couple of hours later, perhaps after having had a nap, Walter Johnson called again asking “Have I said anything today?”
Moncrieff had to explain to him that it was too late to do anything about it as the story had gone around the world…
He would have sold the country to the lowest communist bidder.
Let him rot.
Anyone else surprised at how much coverage he is getting?
Seeing as most of it’s on the BBC – no, not really.
One down and all of that
Hopefully todays news about shorter days puts the election closer and the total decimation of Labour
The powerful earthquake that killed hundreds of people in Chile on Saturday probably shifted the Earth’s axis and made days slightly shorter, a Nasa scientist has said.

Vore anyone but Labour Donkeys (Jackets)
If Foot had been PM, Britons would have been lions lead by donkey jackets.
Look at the photo.
Mr Foot is not wearing a donkey jacket.
The only donkey on this thread is you, you blind c u nt.
We don’t care. He was still a scruffy deluded twat donkey jacket or no.
May God forgive you for your sins Infidel.
But first you will have to beg him for forgiveness.
First I would have to believe in sky fairies you soppy hoon.
Sticking by your principles and ideals is fine. Unless they are shown to be totally wrong in which case you have wasted your entire life devoted to a set of misguided beliefs.
A bit like most labour voters. Tick, tock, tick, tock goes your sad, little lives, forever tortured in the knowledge as your schoolbook ideology inflicted on the world produces nothing but poverty, increased crime and misery to millions.
A socialist is a loser that should be ridiculed, poked with a large, pointy stick and stuck in a cage so children can laugh at them, like they do when they see a masturbating monkey in a zoo.
On a more cheerful note, Guido’s Live Chat PMQs Highlights are now available for fellow windowlickers.
Well put BOGBG.
Never spoke to the Foot, he stank of BO and stale piss.
Remarkable really how well this analysis fits the Mozzie Fellowship.
Just replace ‘socialist’ and ‘labour’ with I*lam.
I wonder if the two are related, I think we should be told.
This window is tasty!
And yet, despite all the bile that is being poured upon this man and his beliefs by arseholes like trevor skint, a coward who himself smells of shit and spunk, despite such cruel and and false attempts to traduce and smear a man who has just died and who, unlike David Cameron, did not whore himself to the highest bidder, nor, like Dave, change his views every five minutes, the Tories still cannot muster the popular support of the country.
Says a lot about what a bunch of wankers the Tories are, doesn’t it.
Foot achieved nothing and was on the wrong side of all arguments. He was quite hopeless. Why he recieved so much air time is bemusing.
No, now move along there’s a good chap.
Don’t trouble yourself Sir Trev, I have brought Martin’s light sabre just to calm him down.
But you Tories are a bunch of wankers.
That is merely a statement of fact. And every reader who reads the bile the Tory scum have posted on this thread about a dead man will not vote for you.
You just shat in the punchbowl you idiot!
Dave has been preparing that punchbowl for ages and he has put all sorts of lovely ingredients in it and you dopey fuckers have just crouched over it and curled up a big turd right in the middle of it.
Who is going to drink from a punchbowl with a turd in it?
Nobody.
Now that’s funny.
You’re my kinda guy.
You are a banker, right? Merchant, I might add, too

I can’t stand twitter or any of the c.nts who use it, and normally avoid talking about it for fear of the self loathing it might lead to, but… have just seen this elsewhere:
RT @SallyBercow Michael Foot’s death has prompted me to donate to Lab GE campaign. Will others do same?
Sally Bercow using Michael Foot’s death to try and bolster Labour’s election coffers… nice. Real classy, Sally.
http://twitter.com/SallyBercow
It has made me think about donating to Labour too, would a bucket of piss be appropriate?
Send some turds.
i think it is undeniably true that mrs bercow has shown her true stance here – and what a cow she is
just follow the link, you arsebucket. Of course it’s true
In a previous existence, I think she had admitted to frequently being a bare cow.
It may well have the opposite effect. Had I cast my mind back to the Foot era, when I was casting my vote for Bliar in 1997, I may well have avoided a monumental mistake which will haunt me to the end of my days.
Yes one doubts even God will forgive you.
Does she give – or receive?
She takes it in all three holes, and will do a two girl show with Caroline Flint. Contact my parliamentary escort agency for more details. Mr Speaker is available in his gimp suit for the kinky, but there’s no Oaten stuff, we have limits.
Thankyou Peter for illustrating, yet again, what a vulgar bunch of wankers the tories are.
You have just dropped another t u r d in the tory p u n c h b o w l.
Who will drink it now?
Good work!
Ah Pierre, so you have sampled the delights? I hope you used a protective – I wouldn’t want to catch anything.
I’ll do either, both at the same time, if you wish.
Don’t forget to book early for Christmas!
The slag will dig up Foot and steal his wrinkly little knob to use in her sex games with Tory clients/perverts (she’ll stick up their arses as she shits in their mouths).
Cameron is gagging for it.
Be fair, I would give her one.
Best stick something big in her gob to keep her Tongue in action on something productive.
I’d give her a few quid to spend on what she wants.
Aunt Sally (Bercow) needs to ask Wurzel if she can borrow a head with a brain in it.
He was right, why do men think they become respectable by putting on a suit!? He was a pacifist, wish there were more around now!
He was the People’s berk.
Bad Al says: Foot held the party together during the time of the SDP split in the early 80′s.
No Campbell you depressed hoon, Foot split the party!! The gang of four left because Foot had gone too left wing.
Campbell you cretin, how can you say he held the party together FFS???
BFC no one is saying he wasn’t respectable because of his dress, but, because of his treachery and devotion to the soviets during most of his post war political life-time.
Britain’s industry was destroyed by the unions who were funded by the soviets. The soviets enjoyed destroying Britains’ industrial capacity and Foot secured the finances for the unions.
How can that be seen as good?
I can see what you mean about him being a pacifist, the man destroyed a nation without taking us to war if that’s your angle.
It’s when they think they’re respectable by not putting on a uniform when the country’s very existence is at stake that’s the problem. Where’s Foot’s war record? He was 26 when it started.
At least Tony Benn was in the RAF.
He volunteered for the forces but was rejected because he suffered from chronic asthma.
Campbell knows fuck all history – except for the stuff he wrote.
Let us stop telling lies and stop living in the past, eh?
What proof do you have that Mr Foot was a traitor? Fuck all.
What proof do we have that David Cameron is a traitor?
His own words. David Cameron promised a referendum on the EU and then broke his word. The fucking treacherous liar.
David Cameron is a Traitor, not Michael Foot.
He should be hanged for his treachery really.
Given that McDoom also promised us a referendum on the treatyand then reneged, presumably you would be more than happy for him to be hung as well? Of course, you could add in that Brown has also fucked over the economy as well. Perhaps we should hang, draw and quarter our nbeloved Prime Minister?
The fact that Brown signed us up to the Lisbon treaty in order to make Cameron look like he retreated on the promise just shows what a trecherous c*unt Brown is. He knew Cameron could not hold a referendum if the treaty was signed before Cameron became PM.
Brown should be hung by the nads in public for such trechery.
@Susie 4:21
Foot may have been a pacifist but he wasn’t a conchie. He was medically unfit to be called up and instead worked for Beaverbrook.
Its Nae me faul y’hear tha’ broon dun it it’s nae me fal!
Pacifism is ONLY good if everyone else is also a pacifist, otherwise they’re either slaves or a parasite of someone braver than they are.
Pacifism works until someone takes a pop at you, then it starts to hurt.
Pacifism is good ,but not if you aspire to government. The prime duty of the state is to defend the community and administer justice, all else is foot notes. (excuse the pun)
I laud pacifism of the ‘my kingdom is not of this world’ variety but not in the government that commands the armed forces.
The best that can be said is that he was a well meaning dunderhead, the worst that his pacifism was ‘partial’. Fascists fight, Communists no fight.
I have always doubted Foot credibility.
Pacifism and illegal pre-emptive acts of aggression are the two extremes of the spectrum.
They are as invalid as each other.
Britain’s industry was destroyed by the unions who were funded by the soviets. The soviets enjoyed destroying Britons industrial capacity and Foot secured the finances for the unions.
Yes, but it is worth pointing out that COMMUNISM is effectively run, was invented, and still is being financed by, the owners of so called capitalist banking system. Which has always had as little to do with traditional banking as it could possibly get away with. Is certainly not capitalist in any sense most people would understand the word. While also certainly not being any type of free-market system, more a criminal conspiracy if ever there was one.
The so called Cold War was indeed an EXTREMELY profitable and reasonably murderous money making, and population controlling scam.
I have no idea whether Foot knew this to be the case or not. However even if he partially did, please remember this
THE LIE IS DIFFERENT AT EVERY LEVEL.
Therefore he would have satisfied himself that socialisms end would always have justified its means of getting there. In that the end would justify having to jump and jive to the tune of many of the most murderously nasty bastards this planet has ever produced. Taking bribes from wherever they ULTIMATELY came from, which was predominately large multi-national corporations through Union subs, and more indirect finance from The Establishments COMMUNIST co-conspirators.
As far as destroying British manufacturing industry is concerned.
There is much evidence that plans were secretly drawn up by the establishment to transfer the vast majority of the ENTIRE WORLDS manufacturing to COMMUNIST China as far back as the 1930′s. 1936 to be more precise. Foot, Scargil, Galloway and Thatcher have many more things in common then one may like to imagine. One of the more worrying things being, they were, and in Galloways case still are, working for exactly the same British/World establishment, while having little clear, or no usefully well informed idea that they have always been doing so.
Capitalism as we now know it, and Communism as we are about to, are in the end the same thing. That thing being FASCISM is all of its worst respects, and very little of its best.
As the communists only took power in 1949 in china, the above is clearly bollocks.

Susie says: 4:21 pm
“Where’s Foot’s war record? … At least Tony Benn was in the RAF.”
He volunteered for the forces but was rejected because he suffered from chronic asthma.
Will Michael Howard get this much coverage when it’s his turn? No
We are planning some nice things for Mrs T. honest!
….assuming you’re still here, of course.
go to truthseekers website, theres a little article on labour. pass it on
Even I would have been proud of his reply to the “donkey jacket “jibe
Here it is
But Foot always denied that that coat was a donkey jacket, merely a short overcoat. It was actually admired by the Queen Mother when she met the then Labour leader after the Cenotaph ceremony.
Did I write that bollox above, my new chip has failed again.
I have a Crombie coat that’s not dissimilar. By no stretch of the imagination would I call it a donkey jacket. Still doesn’t change the fact that he provided a pleasant persona to hide behind for all the commie scum infesting the Labour party through out its history and continuing into the present day.
It was a DONKEY JACKET. I watched the ceremony and clearly remember him turning round at the end and revealing the plastic bit round the shoulders.
Yes. I remember that too.
I thought it was something to do with an up yours to the dead — I’m with the miners, as it was clearly meant to be.
Mind you, if he had to do that today it would be dayglow high vis.
Rot and balderdash. You’re delusional. It was an overcoat.
http://u.nu/5ak27
Those words were actually spoken by his wife.
You have got to admire her loyalty to a man who was out shagging another woman for part of their married life and remained a very good friend of a man who raped her. That’s socialism for you.
Not like Gordon, Euan and Cherie then.
Crazy tie, too. Plus an inane grin. He was another public school socialist.
WTF is a donkey jacket anyway and why is it offensive?
Miners used to wear them with NCB, writ large, across the back at shoulder height.
Yes-An NCB donkey jacket used to be known as a Coal Board fur coat.
A practical, warm, short overcoat – in fact, ideal wear for a cold November day.
It wasn’t offensive, but the media storm whipped up by the Sun was.
RIP Michael Foot – you may have been wrong, but at least you weren’t a duplicitous shower of shit like your successors in Liebour.
“at least you weren’t a duplicitous shower of shit like your successors in Liebour”
Wait till the biographies come out.
Taken in context of the time — waves of various strikes lasting months unions at war with the democratically elected government — I can assure you it was VERY offensive on what was supposed to be a national non-political day of remembrance.
Apart from all the KGB stuff, eh?
What KGB stuff?
Any chance of him being buried in it?
Looked like he had been buried in it when standing at the Cenotaph. Two pounds of shit in a one pound shit bag and tied in the middle.
A man with principles and ideals.
Something none of you on this site seem to have…
If “principles and ideals” lead you to act like he did, then I am thankful that I, apparently, don’t have any, and that 71.7% of the 1983 voters didn’t have any either.
Why do we want to know anything more about a deranged surrender monkey who had our spies killed by the soviets and supported fat communist lesbo’s who smashed down the fences of our nuclear defence bases.
You are a treasonous fuckwit now kindly leave this blog.
Mate, do you think you could get the hyphenation in your named sorted out (because “Looney-Leftie Hater” and “Looney Leftie-Hater” have very different meanings)?
I’m all for the former, but he latter interpretation implies that anybody who hates Lefties is a Looney – and clearly that’s wrong. (See anything Martin Day writes for proof that hating Looney Lefties is a sound policy.)
splitter!!
I must dash bahh!
I agree, sticking to his principles was honourable, and it also made it easier to realise that his ideology and policies were total bollocks.
Hitler stuck to his National Socialist principles.
Just Sayin’
That is true!
Ah! Godwins fourth protocol stkies again.
How about Stalin? Mao? Pol-Pot?
Treasonous principles & naive utopian sixth form political ideals.
The man should have been shot – but I must commend him for his “principles & ideals” – they kept Labour out of power.
Scratch any British red (or green these days) you find a an anti British extremist underneath.
georgeallwell…you need to up the dose
Don’t worry, George. When Thatcher buys the farm, you’ll have ample opportunity to exact revenge by making similarly spiteful and tasteless comments.
If it is any consolation, I am sure most of the more vile stuff has been posted by Labour activists in order to discredit Guido’s site and, by extension, the Tories. It’s just the usual rough and tumble of politics, eh?
We are quite capable of our own bile thank you.
Yes and after we have won the election the socialist scum at the BBC and every other filthy pit of Labour sleaze will feel it. The forces of hell will seem timid we can assure you of that.
Let’s hope so!!!
Quite.
What’s so fucking good about that? ‘Principles and ideals’? Well hoo fucking ray. He was an incompetent traitorous devious arse.
No, David Cameron is a duplicitous, incompetent, devious, treacherous arse.
David Cameron is an EU collaborator.
We used to shoot collaborators in the back of the head in the war.
So you’re that fucking old, eh? First or Second World War – ‘We used to’? Time for your medication.
‘We’. I doubt you leave your piss-stained chair very often. Why don’t you fuck off to a commie country you stupid Hunt
I’d shoot you two fucking EU collaborators in the back of the head no problem.
You fucking traitors.
You couldn’t shoot your own jizz on to your hand, you lying little c*nt.
You only shoot people in your wet dreams, sex offenders probably.
Ah, another Tory EU stooge traitor.
You Tories are a bunch of fucking traitors.
No wonder 2.5 million people voted UKIP.
The Tory party is dead, it is the same as New Labour, there is no difference between the two parties.
Ah, a reply from a thread ‘hard man’. Got your gun out have you?
Giving it a polish?
You pathetic piece of shit, i’m not a Tory. Try and make your stupid assumptions count.
FAIL!
Btw, you wouldn’t know one end of a gun from another.
FAIL x 2.
C*nt.
Which war, which country? I always thought ‘we’ (the British) took ‘em to the Tower, tied ‘em to a chair, shook their hand, then shot them from the front, with rifles, like civilized people.
Nah. He had principles. He’d have given it away to them free of charge!
He sold his own wife’s dignity to appease a comrade.

For colour footage of Foot in that coat check out

He created the impression, flicking his head, looking skywards, as if the whole event was something that did not really interest him.
I remember watching in amazed disbelief at the time.
That coat was cut like a donkey jacket. Older men did not wear them as it made them look silly.
At his age a decent coat would have made him and others feel more confortable.
I realize now that it was a political statement, which back-fired ,of solidarity with trade unionism, more visible than a get maggie out badge, given the camera angles of the event.
Couldn’t have happened to a more deserving person.
Commie traitor, his mum should’ve done us all a favour and aborted him.
Well that got you boys talking… You do get yourself in a twist about these things – and if this was a playground, and you were a group – would that constitute, erm…
You can disagree with someone completely, on principle, forever, but do you really need to act like ‘packs of dogs’ or non-human, anonymous, retards? It’s like you are all foaming at the mouth, rage, rage, rage ‘oh, ill use a brain cell’, ‘oh, fuck it, I won’t bother’.
You complain about ‘broken Britain’ and ‘yobs’ but act exactly the same once your behind a computer screen.
The guy has just died and served his country for 50 years, refused peerage because he disagreed with the system, and acted on principle. Try it sometime.
‘Respect.’ A popular word the Tories. Clearly not with their supporters.
served his country for 50 years,
Pity his country was the USSR not this Country.
No link eh AC1.
You’re so full of shit it is coming out of your ears.
Now, if we want to talk about traitors, let’s talk about the EU collaborator, David Cameron.
Hear, fucking Hear. Let the commie wanker rot in hell.
You are a traitor Mike.
Fuck off to your EU communist heaven and leave the country of this country to protect ourselves against the corrupt EU.
We have no need for traitors like you in this country.
Fuck off to France or Germany you fucking communist.
You are not deluded George, you really do beleive the shit you write here and on your venemous blog. I suggest our readers here visit your arse-wipe of a blog and read the bile you spew about the Conservatives.
Better get busy deleting George, on second thoughts, why, your credability is shot anyway.-
‘venomous’ I assume you mean. I hate the Tory party, always will. Created by the rich, for the rich. I will highlight anything that highlights the hypocrisy and inconsistency of the Tories.
That was not the point though was it… I argued today about my reaction to when Thatcher fucks off, and my hatred of her is political and principled, not personal. But you boys can’t argue about principles because you have not got any.
Your the deluded one by calling me ‘venomous’. Glass houses? This is a thoroughly calm, considered, thoughtful and analytical comments section eh?
What badly written rubbish. Must try harder. Funding may be denied if you cannot improve the quality of your posts
You all hide behind anonymity. If you really believe in the posts you are making, then put a blog up of your own, highlighting what YOU think.
Oh, sorry, you don’t appear to be thinking.
Stop hanging off the cock of Guido, “oh Guido, we love you Guido, what shall we say next Guido.”
The Tories here are nothing but Guido’s dancing clowns each looking for affirmation from their master and trying to outdo each other with their ever increasing cretinous remarks.
I think Guido is even realising his tactic of whipping up the Tory mob is backfiring and just making him look like the ringmaster of a bunch of fucking retards.
They aren’t even going to win an outright majority for fucks sake, so all Guido’s propaganda has been a waste of time.
He would be well advised to just concentrate on the commercial side of things really instead of grooming and pandering to the baying mob of Tory idiots.
What a bunch of losers.
You penis George. I hear you have a boatload of personal ‘issues’. Oh dear
Public school, Oxford, privilleged upbring, Soviet sympathiser and ‘politician’ from age 22, so no real-world experience really, much like so many of current day Labour.
Can’t say I’ll miss it.
Does anybody else recall that “Private Eye” magazine labelled him Worzel Gummidge after the donkey jacket affair at the Cenotaph one Remembrance Sunday and that a wag from Channel Four T.V. scheduled Worzel Gummidge for the following year’s Channel Four programmes at 11.00.a.m.on that Remembrance Sunday?A fact.
Imagine what the country would be like today if he had become PM?
We couldn’t blame Thatcher for everything
I dunno – he could have saved us 30 years in our quest to get thoroughly fucked, fleeced and fisted by Labour. Bit of a waste of time all in all.
..And how many channels and radio stations would this require?
The sick man of Europe would have become the dead man of Europe.
Dead Donkey = Labour
Cheap Car Insurance = Simples!
Michael Foot is sadly not remembered that widely. If he was there would be far fewer Labour voters.
A work colleague said: “Michael Foot? I thought he’d been dead for years!” She wasn’t joking.
Only from the neck upwards.
Whoo hooo first for Labour again
Oh Martin!
Come on love, time for your medication and afternoon nap.
But I was first, I know I was, I was first. You people are getting Guido to change my post number, I hate you Tory trolls you make me look stupid all the time, I hate you do you hear me, I hate you!!
Would you like me to switch on the light sabre now Martin, its in rather a long way this time?
Labour go Forth!
Again.
..Go forth and transmogrify / falsify – whatever it is that Labour is actually good at doing
Labour go Fourth – is this a re-run of the EU elections??
We have received an extraordinary number of postal votes in the last few minutes which I am assured were here all the time but have been overlooked. I feel duty-bound, now that this apparent error has been pointed out to me, to cease the count and discuss the matter with my colleagues. It has been proposed that the newly discovered votes are counted so that these citizens are not denied their electoral rights. I will return later in order to inform you as to whether Martin Day has indeed gained the No.1 slot. The matter has been communicated to A Firm Pair Of Breasts and the lady is aware of the situation. Thank you.

Michael Foot? I am seventy but don’t remember him, was he before my time?
I’m hoping David Cameron turns up at The Cenotaph on an out of control hunting horse from his bleoved Heythrop Hunt
Tally Ho David and pass the stirrup cup please
Followed by a resounding chorus of the Galloping Major and Drink Puppy Drink.
You are a thief who steals other people’s names.
You sad c’unt.
Too dim to think of your own name?
Yes you are. What a fuckwit.
He was a talented journalist and a politician of some standing, he stood firm to his beliefs and gave a straight answer to a straight question.
The sort of drivel above is piss poor even considering the chorus of morons who frequent these pages.
Yes he lost by a landslide but remember in those days the Labour manifesto was the product of a committee of politicians and the membership and include the likes of Eric Heffer etc.
Whether you despise Labour or not Michael Foot should be remembered fondly.
Oh my aching sides
Foot was a communist killer who would have sold the nation to Moscow for shilling and a seat in the Duma.
Do you hear me, he was a murderous cretin, communist slag, destroyer of industry.
His bile filled body will do more toxic damage to the earth than any Chinese carbon spewing factory.
He was a classic hateful fucker and I am unanimous in that now stop talking about him.
shit haircut too.
Do you mean the way leftist`s will when Thatcher passes on? Though not.
sloppy (14) wrote
“drivel above is piss poor even considering the chorus of morons who frequent these pages”
does that include you then moron
I don’t like being talked about behind my back.
Me neither
Count me in

This could go on for some time, please do amuse yourselves everyone
Infidel, very soon the pound will drop so far I shall be able to buy your country.
Mr Foot imported his jackets from Spain
Was it made from the donkeys the Spanish like to chuck out of church windows, or something like that.
Any coat in a storm
These coats jokes must stop, it’s not funny
I agree
seconded
Disgraceful
Ha ha ha
Bloody weather eh?
Make like a tree and get out of here.
Wrong thread? Sorry.
Chocolate COATed treats for everyone!
If Foot had ever become PM, this country would now be classified as third world. Sorry, can’t mourn a man who wanted to utterly destroy this country’s ability to create wealth. Was a Union pygmy, a disaster as his party leader, and looked like Wurzel gummidge’s scruffier cousin.
A gift for the Tories, though.
Pop you down as a maybe then?
” ….a man who wanted to utterly destroy this country’s ability to create wealth. Was a Union pygmy, a disaster as his party leader, and looked like Wurzel gummidge’s scruffier cousin.”
Oh, how history repeats itself.
lol nicely put. Brown is easier to detest than Foot ever was, though.
So what happens next. A great conservative leader and another falklands war?
I’m calling the boys back from Afghanistan to have a little trip over to Brussels…
Sadly, his successors have done the job for him. Third World? You bet.
looked like Wurzel gummidge’s scruffier cousin.
Outstanding best comment so far!
The one thing with Michael Foot you knew what he believed in right or wrong but with NuLiebour what do they believe in, e.g. a virtual communist (who order the Red Flag to fly on Sheffield Hall became one of the most right wing Home Secretaries), Broon, B’Liar etc
Yeah, he just got them the wrong way round. So many famous leaders did that, dontchaknow, Lenin, Stalin, Khurshchev, Pol Pot, Mao.
You knew what they thought was right too. Perhaps I’ll stick to leaders with an ability to self-criticise?
Authoritarianism is the very soul of Marxist faith.
Go tell that to the Afghans whose weddings are being bombed by the US Airforce you fucking arse.
Have you heard the music they play at these fucking Afghan weddings?
It’s the same music they play on those videos that show some poor c*nt having his head sawn off by a ‘soldier of peace’.
If i was flying over Afghanistan with a couple of bombs, i would definitely aim for the public address system at a wedding.
Did the Taliban tell you it was wedding that was “bombed”, there’s the sign of a sucker every day!
And you believe what the Americans tell you do you?
You sucker.
More than the Taliban.
But the Americans used to fund the Taliban AC1.
Oh what a tangled web you weave, you’ve gone and tripped over!
You cretin.
The CIA called the Taliban freedom fighters and now they are the enemy.
How the fuck did that happen, eh? What did the Taliban have to do with 9/11?
Fuck all.
Jesus wept AC1, you just made yourself look like a right wanker there mate!
And let us not forget Donald Rumsfeld was the guy who sold Saddam Hussein the mustard gas he used to kill the Kurds.
Keep talking AC1 you are making a right fool out of yourself.
Well done.
No the Americans funded the Northern Alliance.
They also gave money to the Pakistan ISI, who used it to build up the Taliban.
Let’s see who sold arms to Iraq…

Never mind comrade, sleeper Brown is performing as planned.
On the positive side, he did so much good work for the Thatcher government – His presence as leader of the opposition made the voters well aware that there really WAS no alternative.
David Cameron is a charlatan even the Libs hate himm “This kind of vacuous spin is fooling nobody.” #nevervotetory
Sorry again Martin. Not convinced. Will not be voting Labour
To be fair though, how can anybody write anything sensible with a light sabre up their arse, give us a break lads!
Martin,calm down dear -the Lib Dems hate everyone.That’s not news.
As you say’ “This kind of vacuous spin is fooling nobody.”
If the Libs hate him, he must be a top chap and worth voting for?
“Muslim women who refused to take ‘naked’ full-body scan are barred from Manchester to Pakistan flight”
Oh bugger, and I had it all set up to record too!
It has to be better than a bomb squad Spaniel with a wet nose up yer hijab…cor blimey!
Poor Dog, having to go near unclean muslims.
Stop wanking over that keyboard and clean your bedroom, it smells of spunk and shit you dirty little fucker.
Tat, I know you like wearing a dress but you’re not my mum.
Now stop wanking and shitting in my room.
Don’t talk to your mother like that. You might go on order order acting like an armchair general but if you speak to you poor old mum like that you will get a clip round the ear.
Now clean your room up. What are all those disgusting crusty tissues doing littering the floor.
You dirty bastard.
I will throw you out and you will have to live on the streets again if I get any more back chat from you my lad.
Until you clean your disgusting room up I won’t let you use my computer again.
Sorry Tat but I really must insist you leave.
There is nobody else in your room AC1, stop talking to yourself and trying to blame your messy room on other people you mad bastard.
Right that’s it, I will have to call the doctor and we will have to have you sectioned again son.
Sorry but there is no other way, I’ve done my best for you but you are not able to look after yourself and so we will have to let the mental health authorities take care of you.
Sorry Tat, You’re projecting again…
I always wondered if you’ve been sectioned for not being able to look after yourself, and now you’ve confirmed it.
It must be a real burden for you.
Take your beating like a man AC1.
You’ve been outclassed sunshine.
You get beaten every time and after being given a good hiding and you know you’re beat you start whining and playing your scratched record line about ‘projecting.’
You’re a one trick pony who regurgitates the same old rubbish time after time.
You lose, I win.
Again.
The doctor will be with you soon. No scratching and biting or they will have to use the straight jacket like last time.

They’d love it. Old Arab saying: “Women for children, boys for pleasure.”
Gordon must be an Arab then.

Are same machines installed in Karachi Jinnah Airport for the Pakistan to Manchester flight?
This is very, very important as the Begum is due over next month.
A man goes to the curry house one evening and orders a red-hot chicken phall.
Of course he pays for it the next day with guts on fire and wind like Satan’s breath.
The problem is there’s a woman he’s fancied for ages and he’ s taking her out for a drive in the country that day.
He picks her up and all’s going well except he’s having to hold all his pump gas in and he’s starting to feel like he’ll explode.
Eventually he decides he’ll have to let one go and tries to let it slip out quietly but misjudges and it comes out a real rip-snorter with a stink to match.
She coughs and splutters and puts the window down while he sits there feeling mortally embarrassed.
By now there’s an uncomfortable silence which he’s trying desperately to fill.
Eventually, thinking to ask her about current affairs he asks “Have you seen today’s paper?” to which she replies “No, but if you stop in a layby I could find you a couple of dock leaves!”
Haha! I was wavering but not you’ve got my vote.
Obviously misunderstood
Why did he not sieze the opportunity to retire to a Communist Utopia like North Korea ?
Hampstead is a communist utopia.
But it’s populated by us ??
We shall be playing old videos of Michael Foot across all channels up until Labour win the election on May 6th as a mark of respect to our soviet comrade.
We have informed David Cameron, the leader of the enemy, that we shall have no air-time left to show his poxy Party Political Broadcasts, in fact we have returned them to CCHQ. Andrew Marr and John Sopel wanked on them before they were despatched to Fatty Pickles the norther betrayer and Chairperson of the enemy.
There will be ample time to show
our Party Political BroadcastsLabour Party Political Broadcasts as they are pure and edifying – showing a future fair for all.Now fuck off everyone and send us your telly tax NOW!!!
Exactamento.
So pissed people could make a fool of themselves worldwide even before the internet.
Does this also mean that no-one on the day thought it looked like a donkey jacket?
Perhaps a slightly tarted up Duffel coat, but that was pretty good going for the scruffy old sod.
Ah well. politics is so much better today because all the politicians have image consultants and spend more on clothes. Makes you glad its the 21st century. Twats.
He isn’t home yet, I’m getting a little worried.
A cup o’ tea and a slice o’ cake.
Bit over the top?
Most of the Labour MP’s are just not standing again and retiring from public life
Michael Foots funeral doesn’t need a 21 gun salute, it needs this.
Reminds me a bit of vietnam. Of course it doesnt really because I have no experience of war in vietnam, neither did my dad or uncles.
Surely you don’t need THAT many bombs to exterminate the Lefty extremists at the ceremony? (I mean, they are an endangered species.)
One daisycutter. Job done.
Yeah, that whole Napalm thing really worked out in Vietnam, didn’t it?
Oh, hold on, no it didn’t, the Americans had to cut and run with their tails between their legs.
So it didn’t work out so good really.
Nope after they pulled out a million vietnamese were murdered by the communists who enslaved them.
Ah, so the Americans are guilty for allowing a million civilians to be killed because the US cut and run?
Thanks for setting that one straight AC1.
1. Learn the difference between napalm and a daisycutter.
2. Vietnam was a clusterfuck of humungous proportions. Too many political bullshitters not listening to the Chiefs of Staff.
3. Slim Pickens is cool.
I predict that sales of donkey jackets will take this country out of recession. Will the Leader of the Opposition support our Bill to guarantee all school leavers get training, a job and a donkey jacket. As I thought, he’s a novice. He has no policies on donkey jackets.
may the traitor rot in Hell
Who is John Galt?
At the outbreak of the Second World War, Foot volunteered for military service, but was rejected due to his chronic asthma……… traitor ……? Wrote a book about the danger of appeasement of Fascists … apparently a best seller in the early forties.
Foot was also opposed to the EU and wanted to take the UK out of it: something you right wingers are still crapping your pants over.
In the wake of the communist seizure of power in Hungary and Czechoslovakia he took a strongly anti-communist position – OOOps there goes all the he would sell the UK to Stalin jibes. PS – He won massive damages from the Sunday Times over him being an alleged KGB Agent.
But folks why let abit of reality stopping you crapping all over a man’s grave who most of you are not fit to lick the soles of his boots of dog crap.
Brown admires foot for his sense of humour.
I guess we shouldn’t be surprised. Have Labour
ever had a leader who wasn’t a bit weird. Thats really why
they hate Bliar. He’s too normal.
My husband. My weirdo.
Pity that Cameron also admired Foot’s “wit” .
I was completely normal and everyone loves me.
Makes him a *wat.
Except you kinda know that Brown was genuine.
That’s true, even though he sucked up to George Bush and got us involved in illegal wars, he was still the least embarrassing Labour leader on the world stage they have ever had.
Blair is “normal” ???
I recall as a teenager around then that donkey jackets were very fashionable.
But only if you were a student, not leader of the opposition.
…or in borstal.
Or on a building site
Or at a memorial service as The Leader of Her Majesty’s Opposition.
What strikes me more than the irreverence of the notorious donkey jacket was that the twonker couldn’t be bothered to show a modicum of respect for the Dead of two World Wars at the Cenotaph by even wearing a black tie .
Now, he may have been like a lot of the leftie scum such as Brown,Balls, Mandevilson etc but AT LEAST wear a black tie at an annual Ceremony which is broadcast worldwide !
Exactly. People said, and are still saying that he wasn’t being disrespectful by turning up looking like W.G. but he didn’t think or care about his appearance.
Well in my book if I was representing millions who relatives died in these conflicts then I fucking well should think about my appearance and show my respect by dressing in an appropriate way.
Bet he could write a legible letter of condolence though
exactly. It’s a bit like Brown turning up at the Mansion House dinner in a lounge suit
Watch the video – he couldn’t focus on the ceremony or even _hold the fucking wreath properly_.
AFAIC the green jacket was a multi-colour “Up Yours” to the establishment. Burn in hell, Michael.
Why do we want to read about this BORING OLD SHITE !
The UK is better off without the likes of his retarded thinking.
Now how long before bong-eyed Brown has a stroke !
Hasnt he already had one? That may explain a few things…
My mother-in-law had a mild one a while back and now shes a gibbering imbecile with the memory of a goldfish pissing her money away to scammers in europe….
**I truly hope my lovely partner doesnt see this or Im for it!
Wedgewood-Benn will be running out of fellow travellers to hold hands with, during those jolly choruses of Keep the Red Flag Flying Here, that all good champaign socialists enjoy.
S45 of the Criminal Law Act 1977 prevents me from saying PRECISELY what Tony Benn deserves…
It is this fucking disgusting and shameful lying at the time which needs to be exposed. Heaven knows I disagree with him about his CND support, but it is loathsome to suggest that he was some sort of ‘enemy within’. And even more shameful to resort to ‘dirty tricks’ and smears because he didn’t support giving unequivocal support to rapacious corporations and asset strippers.
For a more measured view look at what that well known lefty firebrand Hannan says..
http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/danielhannan/100028285/michael-foot-gods-englishman/
Guido could learn A LOT from Foot’s speeches on Freedom of the Press and the responsibility that comes with it. But I suspect he is too thick for that.
…But I am too thick to think up a moniker for myself
yeah Freedom of the press during the run up and in WW2 just what the enemy needed
the guy was an arsehole of the first order.
don’t tempt us
The bloke WAS just like Tony Benn a useless bulwark against the EU.
He was however a twat in a long line of twats who sold out the core working class man to a multiculti fucking hellhole just like Benn.
Rot in hell you old naive bastard, your stupidity has helped fuck this country.
All the old Commies are dying off; Jack Jones last year and now Michael Foot. There was a time when the UK Establishment, including the BBC, took them very seriously.
C,mon Hattersley you fat fucking prick, DIE!!
“Of the many knee’s belonging to wizened old socialists my dad made me and David sit on,Micheal Foot stands in my memory most.
The smell of stale piss mixed with stories of his exploits in WWII trying to disarm the British forces and his ability to receive radio signals through his fillings,which of course turned out to be true”
Worsel Foot deed? Wonder if stephen Gately will be on top of him by nightfall, what a bummer!
I bet BB Pravda will cover the funeral live.
Many people say that I was the best Welsh Labour leader since Michael Foot.
Not a lot of piss taking over on LabourList.
alllllrighhhhhht
He’s fallen in the water!
Ooh all these vultures pecking a corpse. The man is dead. Are you all frightened he will haunt the tories and regain power for old labour? Wheessh. Let the man R.I.P.
Woooooooooooo it’s me Michael Foot the friendly ghost.
fair comment RIP but he was a silly old bugger. At least labour has something to talk about that brings memories of Old Labour to the surface …is it right Gordon phoned him two days ago to wish him well ?
Yes the bastard finished me off over the phone.
He has a phone-in wank line?
said it all about labour at the time..dressed by oxfam, educated by rote, indoctrinated by commies..an irrelevance in political history.
A note form the gov to all astro’s new wording can you now use ” I didn’t agree with [insert foot ]!”, but use the new improved ,” I’ve never voted labour but !” .
Martin can you call the office as gordons lost he’s phone again ?.
Sorry i’m late everyone, had a nap after checking the dole came in.
My top ten of socialist wankers who are dead or bloody should be,
Roy Hattersley.
Shirley williams.
Roy Jenkins.
Ken livingston.
Germain Greer.
John Prescott.
Micheal Foot.
Eric Heffer.
Kevin Maguire.
Polly Toynbee.
Let not one of these putrid heathens live!
Hey, what about me?
And me!
Don’t forget me.
oi you 2 sling yer hooks…preferably round each others necks
Dont be silly Neil, you are a multi millionaire as is your wife.
How could you be a socialist with such ghastly wealth?
You forgot about me!
I’m a socialist doncha know. How on earth do those poor people cope without 2 bottles of bollie a day and a visit to Harrods?
I’m guessing you want George Galloway to stick around purely for comedy value?
Yep…
One foot gone, so nine feet left, oh!, add kinnock to that list, back to ten foot.
I’ve spent many hours wearing donkey jackets in the past, and Foot’s famous coat most definitely isn’t a donkey jacket.
Bet he didn’t claim for his poppy on expenses, either – he had more integrity than that.
That said, most of his policies were daft.
Well said Engineer.
Private Eye dubbed it a donkey jacket. It was in fact a ‘shortie’ car coat, quite fashionable at that period but wholly inappropriate for such an occasion.
He put little thought (for an apparently great thinker) into his attire and therefor deserves all the flak given then and now.
Some people have the unhappy ability to look like a sack of spuds when dressed in a Saville Row bespoke suit. Sartorial sharpness was never Foot’s strong point. That said, as a senior politician, he might have taken a little more care, but don’t forget that that happened before the age of slick presentation took hold of politics.
In a way, I rather prefer the age of substance over style that Foot inhabited. I’m sick of PR drowning proper politics. I passionately disagree with most of what Foot advocated, but at least he was sincere and honest in his beliefs. It’s difficult to think of many senior politicians you can say that about today – Brown is just in search of a good headline and smearing anybody who gets in his way, and nobody is quite sure what Cameron believes in yet. Sad.
Not at all, look at Footwit from the 30s and 40s – he cut quite a dash in DB pinstripe suits.
Not bothered about him at all though, he did some real damage to this once geen and pleasant land.
Not at all! People who give little thought to their attire are usually preoccupied with more important things. Foot was an intellectual,………
and when are men going to STOP thinking that by donning a suit they become respectable? Usually they are spivs.
Come on Contessa, what’s with this tortured genius cliche?
He was a Labour star – he enabled Mrs Thatcher to continue her work.
Hmmm, not sure about that Barefoot. By your reckoning Onslow or old man Steptoe are the deepest of thinkers…
Probably Labour voters all the same though!
As I said before it WAS a donkey jacket. The next year he wore one of those rather odd Loden coats.
You are correct CL. There were vinyl shoulders — I remember them clear as day.
You are blind, you stupid woman. It did not have plastic shoulders. It was a quite expensive coat which, as has been said, was admired by the Queen Mother.
You are blind, you stupid woman. It did not have plastic shoulders. It was a quite expensive coat which, as has been said, was admired by the Queen Mother who didn’t think it at all inappropriate for the occasion.
The Queen Mother was being polite and respectful. Foot however………
Well said Engineer. Some sanity on this site at last.
Who cares whether he lives or dies? Bury all of Labour with the old scrote. Did anyone ever tell him that the devil’s a sodomizer? No? Nice surprise then.
Hi, my name’s Dave, Dave Cameron.
I said I would hold a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty.
Then I changed my mind.
I’m a traitor, Mr Foot was anti-EU but I am pro EU.
Mr Foot was more of a patriot than I will ever be.
Who’d have thought, eh?
Foot was just anti EU not patriotic.
A marxist not a Nazi if you like, but not a fucking patriot.
Oh but Dave is patriotic but also an EU stooge.
Does not compute.
Your argument is shit. Fuck off you twat.
Dave Cameron is an EU collaborator. He should be hanged really.
Um, didn’t Foot back Maggie in 1982 Falklands conflIct? He was anti EU, and a founder of CND. All good things, IMHO. And don’t make him a traitor. Anyway, he put his manifesto to the Great British public – who roundly rejected it. And fair dos.
Please re-submit in English. This is an English speaking site.
I’m not rewriting my informal colloquial colonial comments for your ‘pleasure’ you ninny.
I am a New Zealander; every one who voted for the EEC membership in the Labour referendum of 1976 is a traitor to Britain – and the Commonwealth. As was Ted Heath.
That’s better, your last post made a lot more sense.
Very Well Done!
Michael Foot – a leg end in his own lifetime.
Conservative Home is missing an idiot.
We’ve found him. He is scuffling around order order and posting under the pseudonym Tears for Piers.
Could you please come and collect your retard?
T4P:
LOL
You tory trolls trolls shat in the punchbowl.
No-one’s going to drink it now.
ROFL!
We’ve found the other one aswell.
Please collect your two idiots.
Thank you.
… even if he did have to ankle for it.
I taped up my NHS glasses with gaffa tape myself you know. Never took a time from the public purse to replace them.
You’re all a bunch of Hitlerites!
The schadenfreude is so thick I can taste it. And it tastes like bile.
Although death may have claimed me, I can still recognise crap when I see it and to be honest your blog is crap.
I meant:
It takes one to know one, and who cares what you think. Aren’t you supposed to be dead?
Death is just the beginning of another journey my craptastic friend.
You seem to have a real corncob up your arse about Iain Dale.
Does he owe you money?
Make no mistake, the more the public discover the fascist, bile filled underside of the Conservative party, as illustrated on this thread regarding a man who has just died, the less voters will be inclined to vote for them.
They are literally throwing victory away for the sake a few hundred spiteful, hate filled posts.
They just couldn’t wait until they got into power and as a result of their putrid, vulgar outbursts people are turning away from the Nazi Tory party and their possible victory is slipping away from their grasp.
The harder they clench their fists, the more the chance of power slips away.
The tories are fools to themselves for by behaving in this way and attacking a dead man they have effectively taken a big dump in the punchbowl that Dave Cameron and his spinners have so carefully prepared over the last two years.
Who is going to drink from a punchbowl with a big turd in it?
Nobody.
It is quite funny when you think about it.
Well stop gagging on c0ck, then. The only collectivist socialists posting on this site are the likes of you, dearie.
Please re-post in English.
Thanks.
> You’re all a bunch of Hitlerites!
Don’t Insult us by accusing us of being Socialists!
Open up your blog to unfiltered anonymous comments and tell you how I feel about YOU and YOUR blog.
Go on. I dare you!
You can write anything you want on it. All you have to do is put in some kind of handle. It’s not moderated.
I left a comment on his blog, check it out.
It’s as witty as could be hoped for from a witless tosser.
And the sniggering “I left a comment on his blog” is quite shockingly inane.
I was the greatest leader this country never had
He was the socialist’s worzel. May he rest in peace.
well it’s exceptionally good that Foot’s death has taken over the news. even more opportunity for the economy to be forgotten about and the bbc and new labour (they’re the same you know) can carry on as usual – wasting our money
Piers Morgan will again be out and about on our screens next week. He plans on interviewing Michael Foot, one time labour party leader, just before he dies as a means of increasing the vote for leader Gordon Brown before the forthcoming, impending general election. Flowers can be sent to Broadcasting House.
Let it be that mister Morgan will be interviewing him soon. I was never more at home than I was at battle
He can still interview me, It may be more exciting than when I was alive and kicking. You never know I might make some sense for once.
When I wer a lad a spent many an hour with comrade michael down the Scrumpit and Squit with arf a bitter and a pasty..he wer a right lad and you could tell even then he wer heding for higher things shame he wuz such a boring scruffy sod.
Another eccentric bites the dust. Shame
Michael Foot’s Donkey Jacket appearance at the Cenotaph:
1. It wasn’t a donkey jacket, it was a wool coat
2. It was green when it should have been black
3. It was unbuttoned when it should have been buttoned
4. It was plainly two sizes too big for him
What a load of tosh!
Sorry, I assume as a labour supporter you feel the need to reinvent history. He wore a donkey jacket, the next year he wore a green Loden coat.
and under todays H & S rules should of been hi visability!
That was the following year.
I stood next to him on that day and I can honestly say he looked like a sack of shit. The man was a disgust.
Yes,but was he a trougher like his protogee Lord Windbag of
Walesland?
He made a bag of shit look smart.
We went for a nice holiday the Labour Party and I and now look how productive we became for it, three elections back to back. They say Michael you where a genius for taking us on a nice rest so we could come back fighting, I am a modest man though. I’m even being buried with my favourite Donkey Jacket and NHS glasses I’ve owned for over forty years.
My patient, Michael Foot, left a message to be read after his death. He wrote:
“Dear Comrades
Please don’t let that c’unt Gordon Brown win the next general election”
I always said never trust a man with one eye, I wore glasses but both of my eyes where on the ball.
His wife had many affairs, so I assume that jackets were the only thing that he had in common with donkeys
His wife was also raped by his good friend who quite astonishingly remained his good friend. Strange people these socialists.
You say raped, I say sharing the wealth equally with the comrades, what’s mine is yours and all that.
Vagina Redistribution.

And, I realize I got the wrong Tory blogger. I meant this one.
Hello wait your turn for the limelight sunny jim, this is my day today.
oh dear I wouldn’t bother again
Who?
heard that when brown called Footie two days ago it was to ask if he could help him for the Tv debates and wish him well
He wanted to swap notes on being the worse labour leader well since me, I guess.
The working class can kiss my arse
Hours of coverage – I’ve gasped my last
McTwat may cry to close the poll
You can stick New Labour up your hole
So watch SnotGobbler on TV
(It makes fuck all diff’rence to me)
You can take the piss and you can sneer
But you’ve still got the Gorgon here…
Lets set the record straight.Foot was undoubtedly a decent man but just because he lived until a great age does not mean that he was not wrong on a great many things during his political career (not least in giving in to the unions when he was Minister) and that he was an ardent supporter of unilateral disarmament.He was also Leader of the Oppostion in 1982 when Argentinina invaded the Falklands and was against any attempt by the UK to sieze them back and wanted the UN involved and would have negotiated away sovereignty. I remember him spouting off live on the Sunday lunchtime politicl show hosted by Brian Waldren about the need for negotiation via the UN when news broke that the Royal Navy had sunk a Argie sub and the Royal Marines has siezed back South Georgia.His face was a pictire,He had been proven wrong on all his preceding arguments he had just espoused live on national TV.He never really recovered from the Falklands episode which was not his finest hour and of course went on to disastrously lose the 1983 General Election on a far left Manifesto dubbed “the longest suicide note in history)
It is no doubt a personal tragedy for his family and friends but he was NOT a great man or politician and we can all thank our lucky stars that he did NOT win the 1983 election or rather than see the collapse of the Berlin Wall and Communism we would have seen them marching down Whitehall. So shed tears by all means for Michael Foot the man …..but definitely not for Michael Foot the politician
SKY BREAKING NEWS
As a mark of respect to Michael Foot, Gordon Brown will wear a donkey jacket during the forthcoming live TV Debates with the other party leaders. Gordon Brown’s donkey jacket will bear the word “UNITE” in large yellow letters on his back.
Michael Foot’s dead! Jeeez, I thought he died years’ ago. And now the news coverage is boringly prolific and they’re all coming out of the woodwork to say what a great leader he was, even the champagne socialist Kinnock has been on – now there’s a deadbeat from the past if ever there was one.
So is Foot worth all this toadying and condescending tripe? Well NO! Foot was a disastrous leader, a shambles of a man without the decency to show respect at the Cenotaph. The main thing I’m concerned about is his media coverage is stopping much more important news.
No he hadn’t died,he just smelt that way.
Poor Worzel
Interesting that there has been virually no MSM coverage of the death of Winston Churchill yesterday, not even a mention on ITV or BBC news at ten last night!
That’s because he’s a Tory. There’s an election campaign underway so most of the media are in full-on pro-Labour mode
Well in fairness he wasn’t THE Winston Churchill but the grandson although you would have expected a brief sentence etc
I was the worst Labour Leader ever!
Sorry Gordon, but you’re the worst Labour leader ever. In fact you’re the worst leader ever.
Leader?
Alright then, not leader, turd.
I thought THAT was Ramsay MacDonald
I hope he put the poppies on expenses.
I could never understand why a man said to be as principled as Michael Foot did nothing about it after his wife, Jill Craigie, was seriously attacked by his friend Arthur Koestler. Instead he just carried on his friendship with Koestler as if nothing had happened:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/244230.stm
That’s “socialist principles” for you.
I only married her because no one else would.
Der goy bitch wuz askin fer it!
Did she spit it out?
So Foot’s wife was raped by his friend Koestler who was well known to be a serial rapist but Foot just carried on his friendship with Koestler as if everything was normal?
I bet his wife was a bit miffed or was Koestler’s behaviour the sort of thing that passed as normal amongst socialists, communists and zionists in those days?
I was doing my bit for the deprived of good looks.
A spineless wanker like all socialists.
When a socialist uses the term ‘Fight’ or ‘Fighting’ it will only be figurative.
As in,
“I am fighting(sitting in my Hamstead home)for equal rights.”
Foot was just another pampered upper-class armchair communist windbag. All piss and wind. Infinitely preferable than that sociopathic slimebag Brown, though.
WTF???
A marxist fellow traveller is for life, a wife is just a cover.
The general election campaign has already started but the BBC has decided to exclude the Tory Party.
It looks that way, but no change there, it’s what they do!
AND SOOOOOOO THE END IS NEAR BUT I DID IT MYYYYYYYYYY WAYYYYYYYYYYYY
You Tory boys are disgusting. It just shows you scumbags haven’t changed one iota.
When that monster Thatcher dies I will piss on her grave.
Remember to take your condom off first.
You helped him put it on John, so you should help him take it off.
Only fair.
So, it’s OK for you to make this sort of comment but not for others? Typical hypocritical Socialist.
Thatcher is vile scum. The decent people of Britain will celebrate when she croaks.
Michael Foot on the contrary, is a great socialist and man of principle. This is a very sad day and you Tory scumbags should show some fucking respect.
‘Decent people of Britain’? What all two of them?
Fucking idiot.
How very socialist – lefty invective is fine, but righty invective isn’t.
Says it all.
Tory boys,
Sorry if I was rude about the vile scum Foot but
I will not lower the tone of my piss with his grave.
The man was a twat. You are a twat. Fuck off.
Not only was he a scruffy twat, but he spent 96 long years being wrong about everything. Ninety Six fucking years…
Fuck off you self-righteous tit!
Take you incandescent raging hypocrisy and piss off from whence you came.
I’ll start showing some respect for the knobjockeys in Westminster when they start to respect me. Until then, they can take a very long walk off a very very short pier.
I have a not very clever impersonator – none of the above comments were mine
Not before Eric Pickles has parked a coiled stool upon your bald pate.
Your hair fell out when you were nine years old as a result of eating too many beefburgers.
Now begone.
We’d expect nothing less from socialists
I’ll piss on her grave, dig the old bag up and distribute her remains around the locale.
Wow, you’re really going to have a good time away from your Playstation aren’t you!
Surely you wouldn’t be able to do that in Westminster Abbey ??
Did his donkey jacket have WIMPEY written on the back of it?
No but it had a Millwall badge discretely positioned under the collar.
Not Millwall – they’ve had occasional success.
No, Old Don Qui-Coatey was a Plymouth fan.
A match made in mediocrity heaven since they’ve been crap forever, too.
No, UNITE
It had WIMP on the back.
No,it just had a WIMP inside it.
Someone sewed C*nt into it actually.

A powerful quack has shifted the Conservatives political axis to the left.
Who’s shifted the Axis of Evil ??
I hope Oleg Gordievsky can contribute to his obituary now
A decent man
If you are referring to Foot he was a disgusting, smelly old tramp with no respect for the war dead.
As long as you’re not referring to that pikey twat John Terry
WTF!
Foot was a crypto-communist who would have softened this country up to a Soviet takeover had he ever become PM.
As far as traitors go he is in the same league as Philby, Burgess, McLean, and Blunt.
What about David Cameron? He is a crypto-EU whore who is allowing this country to be overtaken by the anti-democratic and corrupt EU.
He promised a referendum but the liar broke his word.
Never mind fighting yesterday’s battles, let’s lynch that wanker Cameron for betraying the country by failing to allow us a referendum and allowing the corrupt EU to overrule the parliament and laws of this country.
The fucking traitor.
Maybe but Foot was still a Commie traitor.
I am not a Cameron supporter but even I know that it was Labour who were in power and reneged on their manifesto promise to hold a referendum.
The leader of the opposition has no power or ability to call a referendum.
It was Brown who signed the Treaty after everyone else when he thought no one was looking.
Do get your facts right.
359
Whatis the point of posting innaccurate information when everyone who understands English knows the actual facts of Cameron’s promise ?
If you do not understand English there is a vacancy to be filled on the editorial staff of Labour List, so ‘oppit.
You are a traitor, just like Dave.
If you do not want to defend this country then the answer is simple, fuck off to France or Germany where they kneel at the altar of the EU parliament and suck its cock.
Go on, fuck off and suck the EUs cock, cocksucker, there’s a good spastic.
Gibbered the cock knocker.
Very few people on this thread are pro EU, dickhead.
Keep polishing your bellend.
Suck that EU cock.
Suck it good bitch.
So farewell
Michael Foot.
You were before my time
but I imagine you
dropped the dead donkey,
mangled the worzels,
wanted to be Bigfoot
but only ever were club foot -
like Plymouth Argyle -
the epitome
of an oxymoron,
as in sham pain
socialism.
Clap.
It is amazing how the dead are remembered in a different light to when they were alive. Foot is a fine example of this. He’ll be remembered more for his donkey jacket than his influence on British politics & lets’s face it the Labour party was dire under his leadership!!
After death the civil laws of slander and libel no longer apply, give it a week, get past the eulogies (from some) then expect the character assassination in the press, its oh so predictable (and maybe justifiable).
Please don’t boo John Terry at the match tonight even though he is a lying, cheating two-faced turd, a money-grubbing, gambling-addicted, scumbag, and a dirty fucking lowlife, pikey Chelsea twat.
Thank you.
Please don’t boo John Terry at the match tonight even though he is a lying, cheating two-faced turd, a money-grubbing, gambling-mad, scumbag, a dirty fucking lowlife, pikey Chelsea twat, and a useless pile of crap who has recently given away half a dozen goals and cost his shitty over-rated team 5 points
Thank you.
michael foot,ted heath,wilson,blair,brown,prescott,mandy,fattersley…..
embarrassing the uk throughout the world.
Michael Foot a pacifist?
He was trained as a “Scallywag.” FFS!
For that reason and that alone he had my respect.
My Dad was a pacifist !!!
First he ran away from serving his Country. Then he ran away from supporting his family.
Unlike “Spliffy” Jack’s Dad, “Footy” was considered reliable enough to be supplied with Arms and Ammunition, Explosives, Poisons and an assortment of other “nasties” but only two weeks supply of food. The “Scallwag’s” estimated survival time after the German invasion of England was no more than two weeks. Working alone they were expected to deal with as many quislings and Germans as possible using whatever means were available.
Pacifist? I don’t think so.
The “Scallywag” arms dumps and hidey-holes still turn up quite regularly in my part of the country, no record of their locations were kept by the MOD.
Amazing. I thought that he was militarily unfit.
The communist wanker did not want to appear to be part of the establishment. So instead he chose to disrespect the dead and wear a f***ing donkey jacket to make a political statement.
What a moron and doesn’t it say a lot about all the fawning socialist creeps who are currently singing his praises.
“The communist wanker did not want to appear to be part of the establishment. So instead he chose to disrespect the dead ”
The irony!
Yeah, and what about that traitor Cameron allowing the socialist EU to boss this country about.
Cameron is worse than Foot, Foot was anti-EU and David Cameron is pro-EU.
Cameron is by far a worse traitor.
Cameron’s a fucking socialist EU stooge, he must be stopped at all costs.
I’m definitely pro- Patriotic Traitors!
Strange that because at that time the we were also anti EU. and wanted to abolish the HOL. We have both seen the light and now receive millions of your money from both institution. Funny old life aint it.
Polygamy & safe sex won’t feature, obviously. And it’s white tie. So all in all – miles out of my comfort zone
Many a time when I sat on my grandpa Herbert’s knee we’d talk about the first thing that came up and then he’d give me a werthers. Michael Foot was a regular topic but grandpa said he was a scruffy leftie who should be watched.
In 1963 when he led our great party to the worst defeat in 60 years he was out on his ear. Gerald kaufman was great fan too and you don’t get a more ascerbic mealy mouthed shitbag supporter than that saving moi of course…. sorry must dash to get my brazilian reshaped.
…you’ll come to a sticky end, young man!
I met Michael Foot when voting at the same polling booth during the Mayoral elections. He chatted to me and patted my cheek, very sweet, kind man.
I’d just wiped my arse with that hand as well.
Luckily you weren’t married to him.

BREAKING NEWS.
Boris Johnson to appear on Question Time, 10.35 tomorrow night, but the only Labourite prepared to face him is Lord Adonis. Too hot to handle is he, guys? All unavoidably detained? Scared he will run rings round you?
Sad news about Mr Foot. I may be too young to properly remember him as Leader of the Opposition. One may not have agreed with his Old Labour politics, and from the result of the 1983 election neither did most of teh country at the time – but let us at least show our respect to the man on the day he has died…
O/T, just in from w**k and watched PMQs – Harridan Harperson was absolutely PWNED by Hague, superb to watch her squirm and try in desparation to be the one asking the questions rather than answering them. Respect to the Honourable Member for Richmond, Yorkshire, and to the Squeaker for at least trying to keep the debate in order.
Thanks for the respect now do me a favour and vote labour you know it makes sense.
His intellect was exaggerated, he was a Plymouth Argyle supporter and as most Pymouthians will tell you, they are the thickest of the thick.
Green Army
I will have you know, I had a very fine mind, barely any cobwebs at all.
micheal Foot dead just watched PMQ Harriet Harman she looks fucking dead on her feet,what a complete twat as is the fucking Speaker
May well be but the only clip the voters will see will be of Harperson giving Hauge gip about Ashcroft. A woman standing up for the many against the rich toffs you see. No mention on the Beeb of her shear hypocrsy and NuLabours own party funding. So, for all those hard working families who only have the time, or inclination, to gather their daily news via the Beeb, its Tories bad, NuLabour good. Still no strong rebuke or leadership from Cameron. This country is sleep-walking into poverty.
A Labour victory =
a run on the pound within hours
a gilts collapse within days
emergency interest rate rises to 8% within 2 weeks
UK bankrupt and the IMF coming in within 3 months
anyone be able to get a link ive only watched on Labors media arm BBC
http://news.bbc.co.uk/democracylive/hi/house_of_commons/newsid_8537000/8537496.stm for PMQs video – on the Beeb!
A sad day. Can’t say I agreed with Foot’s politics, but I respected the man. Don’t think I can say that about many politicians today.
Having been led by a man allegedly in a “donkey jacket”, Labour have sunk so low as to now be led by the donkey itself.
Why would you respect someone who wanted to turn this country into a satellite of the Soviet Union and who did nothing about it when his wife was raped by one of his closest friends?
McMental MK11
Turns us into a satellite of the EUSSR then allows his wife to be raped by his best turkey baster
She was shared not raped. She was doing her bit for the comrades.
Foot was shagging some other tart at the time, this was an era when Labour statesmen were still famed cockateers and not vaseline smeared bumboys.
I blame the oestrogen in cod for the Mandys and Browns.
The Drunken Ramblings of a Disillusioned Voter
The D*unken Ramblings of a Disillusioned Voter apparently
Please don’t boo John Terry at the match tonight even though he is a lying, cheating two-faced turd, a money-grubbing, gambling-mad, scumbag, a dirty fucking lowlife, pikey Chelsea twat, and a useless pile of crap who has recently given away half a dozen goals and cost his shitty over-rated team 5 points
Thank you.
Please don’t boo poor Jonnie Turdy at the match tonight even though he is a lying, cheating two-faced turd, a money-grubbing, gambling-mad, scumbag, a dirty fucking lowlife, pikey Chelsea twat, and a useless pile of crap who has recently given away half a dozen goals and cost his shitty over-rated team 5 points
Thank you.
No mention on PM by Caroline Quim about PMQ as Hague decimated the unanswering Harpic ! CMD does the same to Broon who never answers but Beeb mention how Broon counters CMD with petty jokes and tractor stats.
Al-Beeba , cnuts!!!
what joke Foot was. A communist clown that made a generation anti-Labour.
Hopefully the communist/economic muppet Brown will be remembered in the same way.
Is wearing a donkey jacket at the cenotaph less respectful than putting in a claim for £33 for remembrance service poppies, or come to that matter going full nazi? :
http://order-order.com/2009/12/04/ed-balls-privileged-education-in-eton-not-at-eton/
What’s ‘going full Nazi’ me dearios ?
Is it perchance a new term for ‘back, sack & crack’ ?
nothing so tastefull, Balls just dressed as a nazi for a laugh, although going by the picture…
http://order-order.com/2009/12/04/ed-balls-privileged-education-in-eton-not-at-eton/
Well at least I will smell abit better now than when I was alive……
Fucking die you Labour bastards
Why are all Labour leaders fucking foreigners?
Mong
Blair
The other jock bastard that dropped dead
Kinnock
Foot
No wonder we’re fucked, piss off you foreign bastards
Foot was from Devon?
Cameron is Scottish.
Devon/Wales all the same to me they don’t speak English and have rotten teeth.
May be they see the english as donkey that need to be led ?
We only want to be led by English Donkeys.
Shouldn’t you be sucking your boyfriend’s cock?
Sky News are reporting that Michael Foot died at 7.0am
Which bright spark felt it useful for the country to know immediately after the most disastrous PMQs for Harman?
New Labour always seeking to take advantage for themselves …….
The last thing I did was shit the bed.
Could be taking conspiracy theories a bit too far, yes the old **** snuffed it on the day of PMQ’s with Harman and Alastair Campbell was seen sneaking off with a pillow under his arm…. fight for it…..Angela Landsbury V Hercule Poroit.
More important than all this, why is the slimy little peanut toothed shit Straw not telling us what Jon Venables did to be locked up again, its to protect public safety? What the fuck can that mean he did?
I knew Michael, see, and he didn’t sound very Welsh. But then Brown doesn’t either.
Does anyone have a video link to today’s PMQs? I tried to find it on the BBC website but they only seem to have their personal selection which is “Harman attacks Hague on Ashcroft”. Typical beeb! From other accounts I have read, Hague actually wiped the floor with Harman. Trust the beeb to show their apparent bias.
He wiped the floor with her – the difference in intellect was so vast it was actually painful to watch.
Harman: 50% of our helicopters are lesbian helicopters.
I did not realise anybody could be worse than Brown at pmq’s but Harman has triumphed today.
Not sure if it is me but she has started to talk in the same manner as Thatcher but without the brain.
She was just nagging, god imagine being married to a hag like that.
Michael Foot nearly died 30 years ago when he stepped in front of my Dad’s car. My Dad missed him though.
De mortuis nil nisi bonum dicendum est, chaps. Let’s not rag the raggetty old fellow too much. He tried very hard to preceive what was right and put it into practice.
Might is right, but those militants had to almost destroy the party and leave me to clean up the mess. If only my mate Stalin was still alive he could of helped me purge the barstewards out.
Well done Waad.
You obviously realise how bad this thread makes the Tories look and you have wisely decided not to dump another turd into the Tory punchbowl that Dave had tried so hard to make look so appetising to the voter.
Which is just as well because your Tory troll friends have shat so many turds into the bowl already that there is no room for any more faeces. The surface of the punchbowl is thick with Tory troll shit.
Nobody wants to drink from a punchbowl with a turd in, do they? But after reading the shit on this thread I doubt many people will want to drink from the tory punch bowl now, do you?
dic-end-um…fair description of what he would have done to the uk had he become PM
Fair description of what of what he would have done to the uk
Look what fucking Blair and Brown have done to it
Oooo By gum I just luv this time o’year
http://www.britishpieweek.co.uk/
Will I get a state funeral? The Queen Mother and I where old drinking buddies.
Will I get a state funeral? The Queen Mother and I where old booze buddies.
This has really made your day hasn’t it?
Your new here aren’t you?
Welcome to the party.
Why do we have to pay our “respects” and say nice things just because he died. The man was a hoon who advocated poverty for all. You can dress it up in all the socialist propoganda you want, the happyness and prosperity of the country was not his goal. The only positive thing about him was that he was open and honest about his communist leanings, unlike todays blood sucking leaches in ALL of the main parties.
You do not have to pay your respects to the man but it is simply decent to not say anything if you have nothing good to say on the day a person dies.
The behaviour of the tory trolls on this thread has really let down the Conservative party. I am sure the undecided voter who reads this thread will recoil with horror at some of the posts Conservatives have made here today.
And I think it might make them decide not to vote Tory.
Bloody Footy!!
Can’t get away from it today. AljaBeeba News – Pure Footy
C4 More Footy
C5 Footy Newsflashes
SkyNews – You guessed it – More Footy
Even on ITV at 7:30 What do we have?
Egypt V England – Yet more footy!!!!!!!
I’m sure that Peter Hain fellow, lying toad and bullshitter par excellence, was going light and dark orange whilst being interviewed on the news over this matter. He looked extremely sweaty too. Has he been trying some of that strangulation sex stuff again?
I thought that’s how Tory MP’s check out…
So angry son of a bitch did you have to practise to be such an asshole or did it come naturally like it did for me.
I’ve learnt all about it in the last hour or so just by reading the comments here, ARSEhole!
I hope you remember to vote labour young arsehole, you will make me proud.
Guido, FFS that turd in the punch bowl line is fucking genius.
Give me a break eh?
Put your money on big Iain Paisley joining me this year.
none too soon fucking nightmare of a man
Gordon Brown did a you tube smile whilst he was giving his Michael Foot tribute outside No.10 with Hattie. I dont think Brown knows he is smiling in the wrong place! Maybe Brown thought he might get some advantage in the polls?
Whilst anybodies passing is sad for the family and friends he lived to a good old age. I thought his politics dreadful yet he seemed to be a gent- even if he was much derided. The same could not be said of some of his succesors as Labour leader.
NEVARRRRRRRRR
NEVARRRRRRRRRRRRRR
NEVARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Once literally bumped into Iain Paisley in a cocktail bar in the West End – he was scary… (and so were all the bodyguards who materialised from the 4 corners of the room when he left with Peter Robinson).
God bless him he came from a time when politicians went in to it
“to make a difference” to other peoples lives
regardless of his policies i believe he was a lovely gentle man
another of a by gone breed of people with morals and a back bone
to stand up for what they believe in
not like the shit we have today who are only in it to line their own pockets
RIP Michael Foot
I bet they keep his will quite to stop the public knowing about all the £millions the fascist Hunt thieved from the poor while in politics.
He was tireless in helping jews imprison, torture and slaughter Palestinians, and other Muslims around the world. And tireless in driving public assets into the hands of the jews, so the poor could be raped and enslaved to enrich the jews.
The filthy old bastard always wanted the complete destruction of Britain (education, culture, race, and son on), and hung on to his evil life till it was done by Nu Liebore fascists.
Foot was dirty evil animal.
Burn in Hell you fucking evil Hunt.
It’s quite comfy down here actually made loads of new friends already with Stalin, Hitler and even some Arab guy called Mohammed who keeps calling himself a prophet.
Can someone bring a bath towel to wipe the spittle off this one?
I would much rather prefer a Hitler moustache and pink Goering bra.
I bet you would.
Just listened to that ginger skidmark Kinnock on R4 news, jeez !! what a fuckin knobend to believe him ole Foot was the best man who ever lived and never hurt a fly and was right about every little thing.
But hey kinnock was another epic failure.
RIP Micheal Foot might have been a nice bloke but his ideas were truly idiotic.
One Foot in the grave!
You mean it took you people 455 posts to come up with that one?
あなたのインターネット日記の混乱、愚かなクソ男だ
One FOOT in the grave the other kicking a slave ooooooh it’s been a wonderful life.
I keep thinking of the Victor Meldrew music now! Also that picture of Foot playing the Violin – Sorry but that is what I keep thinking!
Fair cop; I will fess up, I never touched my wife’s vagina again after my mates had passed her around like yesterdays news.
I would just like to thank Gordon Brown for doing a sterling job and being a worse Labour leader than me and taking the stigma away from me so, I could die in peace.
Nick Robinson, “Harriet Harman wiped the floor with William Hague today”
Is this a joke? I watched QT and the opposite was true. Harman was dithering and stumbling over many questions. It was Hague who wiped the floor with Harman. Nick Robinson is so extremely biased it is a farce that he is employed by the BBC – on the other hand the BBC is also very biased.
I hope when a Conservative party gets power it uses that power to drastically reduce the licence fee from this top heavy, over paid, arrogant organisation.
Red Robbo thanked the forces of Communism for defeating the forces of Fascism during WW2 during his teary eyed eulogy for yours truly today during the news at lunch.
Really!!! Is Red Robbo still alive and kicking. The man who destroyed the car manufacturing industry in Britain. Fooking prick.
He might be haven’t seen him down here getting red hot pokers stuffed up his arse by Satan yet.
Watched it too. Hague handled Harperson well and was certainly in command. He was authoritative, she struggled to remember her lines. He off-the-cuff, she wooden. He calm, she shrilled. If Cameron had more bollocks perhaps the BBC would think twice about such partisanship. Meanwhile, they represent the Tories biggest threat to a fair election.
Sorry, the postman represents the Tories biggest threat to a fair election. If you’re granted an election, that is.
Everyone knows that William Hague can kick Harman’s arse around the Commons – but why wasn’t Dave there to do the same?
Brown may have deemed it expedient to welcome the war criminal Zuma rather than face PMQs – but why did Cameron & Clegg play along?
Why didn’t they MURDER (metaphorically) Harriet? If they can’t then they don’t deserve power.
Always good to see the wimmin doing some housework…
I some times wonder where some of you people get yours idea’s from
to trash an old man in the way you do is disgusting
some of the comments show you haven’t got a fucking clue
what you are talking about or indeed about the politics of him or anyone else !
One Foot in the Grave? I hope not because that means the other one’s sticking out.
Put your left foot in
your left foot out
Put your right foot in
your right foot out
In
out
in
out
shake it all about.
Do the Hokey-Cokey and you turn around
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH THE HOKEY COKEY
Some said I lost my marbles near the end but at least; I won my leadership election fair and square.
The BBC reported Michael Foot died following a long illness. I’s not news to most because socialism is known to be toxic and lethal.
Which ever guise you take your still not funny dave(cast iron0 cameron ,Gordon brown etc etc Your jokes just arn’t funny
I have to say that some of the comments on these Michael Foot posts have made me question the sanity of many who post on here.
‘Michael Six Foot Under’ prime suspect number one, been posting non stop for 5 hours now, do you have a life/job/family/wife at all?
Did Michael foot deliver some embarassing fisticuffs to your face sometime in the 1940s?
This is just the warm act lads, I’ve saved my best stuff for later.
He’s probably the same person who used to post as “Dead Baby Cameron”. If that’s the case, at least he’s impartial.
Couldn’t agree with you more
the guy is a c*nt his jokes (if you can call them that )
are pathetic
he’s most likely some 10 year old fucking about on his dads computer !
I wonder if the mourners at his funeral will be dressed in donkey jackets? The way Foot disrespected the war dead at the Cenotaph showed what his real character was like.
The barstewards are only coming to see if anything has been left to them in my will.
I bet you disgusting Tories celebrated when Pol Pot died.
Of couse they did, the evil vampires.
I for one held a candlelight vigil for the dear Pol Pot after his sad passing.
He was my guiding light. Everything I’ve ever done is based on Pol Pot’s theology and mentality.
If my beloved Pol Pot is looking down from heaven now, I’m sure he’d be proud of what I’ve achieved.
God bless Pol Pot, and God bless the BBC and all who sail in her.
Amen.
Didn’t he win Britain’s got talent
Your confusing Pol Pot with me, Piss Pot.
Not mine
Is it true that Jonah Brown paid Foot a visit and wished him well not so long ago?
He came with the lawyer and two heavies and made me change my will to leave everything to him and labour, he said don’t worry old Foot has lost his marbles he won’t know what has gone on.
I died in alone in poverty with a black eye and pissed pants after being Gordon’s pleasant visit.
But remember Socialism is the caring side of politics and humanity, please vote for Labour.
Well, sorry, but I’m not going to sing the praises of someone simply because they’ve died.
The man was a shit of the highest order, his general approach was identical to Brown’s; “fuck the country, I’m going to secure our core vote instead”
Nothing really changes in labour. Push away the veneer that Blair created and at the heart it was/is still the same “just kill everyone who wants to get on in life, lie to everyone, bribe our voters, fuck everyone else, fuck the country, and, most of all, fuck our soldiers.” mentality.
Fuck foot, and fuck the rest of labour.
Come on. Be nice. At least read out the press release about
how amusing he was.
I’m sure Hitler had his moments of humour too, but I wouldn’t sing his praises just because he died.
”
hey, that Adolf, eh, what a card!
He may have killed millions of people, but he had some great one liners, we’ll all miss him, very sad loss that.
”
see, it doesn’t really work. praising the dead just because they died, and ignoring their bad-sides which made them horifically dangerous is not the right thing to do; doing so rewrites history, and I think history should remember people like foot for what danger (or potential danger) they posed to their country/people.
don’t rewrite history just to be nice. tell future generations about the dangers that all the labour leaders posed/created and then let them decide.
Is that what they wear in the Irish Navy?
Ermm. Irish navvy – defined as a manual labourer who works on major civil engineering projects ie building railways and canals in the 19th century.
the best you could say about foot was that he was an eccentric anachronism and a scruffy old bastard. the worst? a communist fifth columnist who – no better than guy burgess and his pathetic, childish mates – would have sold us down the river if he had been in a position of power and if the cold war had perhaps taken a different turn.
not my cup of tea of at all. goodbye.
Where the fuck do you get your deluded idea that foot was a communist you fucking plank
he was ANTI communist
Anti EEC ?
aAnti nuclear weapons
Get your fucking facts right please !
and i am not a Labourite
you people are like a pack of cowardly dogs
as soon as the prey is down you all join in but dont have a fucking clue why

Yes and
he was there to try to get them to reduce the amouny of nuclear weapons they had
of course he shook his hand it’s what you do !
You may find if you choose to research the subject in rather more profound detail that foot and lenty of other die hard labourites rising in that period had very distinct communist leanings if not very close working relationships…the article quoted below is only one of many documented associations between labour and particularly the ruskies.
Well the Nuclear Weapons didn’t get me, but the lack of a winter fuel allowance helped bump me off you useless labour c*nts.
Hayek argued that the social control over distribution of wealth and private property advocated by socialists cannot be achieved without reduced prosperity for the general populace, and a loss of political and economic freedoms.
Bang on the money !! foot like kinnock , brown and the rest of the lefty fucktards just dont get this or they think that they and their families will always be at the top.
It has worked so far mate

and it takes a foot.
He was a wily old Trotskyist who cultivated the image of duffer. During his time at the Tribune in 1938 (from which he was sacked for not following Stalin’s comintern instruction to pact with other non-communists parties against fascism), this was the line supportive of Stalin’s show trials.
The birth pangs of socialism in backward Russia argument common to excuse Socialist genocide at the time.
At the height of the trials, in February 1938, Tribune argued, ‘Many socialists may be horrified by the suppression of those in Soviet Russia who are critical of the regime. But who can believe that the transformation of old Russia into a socialist society could proceed without severity or without error’.
I see no evidence that Foot was anything other than a fellow-traveller of the internationalist wing which split on tactics with the new socialism in one country wing as put developed by Trotsky’s rival for the socialist soul Stalin.

Talking about pubs, I have a suggestion.
We are surrounded by pubs boarded up in this area. The breweries must have had enough by now, of this government destroying their way of life.
Why do they not put in planning applications for new signs on these pubs. Would not cost much. I will pay for a few.
They could all be called “Labours legacy”, or “Brown Out”. Followed by “They got the boom, we got the bust”
Nice Idea, two of our pubs have closed recently, both have been burned by Labour’s children.
We had the power drop down to 40 volts for 5 hours one night last week, our neigbour agreed it with the joke that it was “Brown’s Britain”
“Just going for a quick one in Mad Hattie’s Arms.”
No, perhaps not…..
Don’t think I could look at any pub called The Cooper’s Arms in quite the same way, now, either…
How about “The Browns Cow” ?
Pick up a Daltons weekly. Most of the pubs for sale are listed as “currently closed “.
Many more, and the National Trust will be saving the last ones for the nation.

No, my dear fellow. Duffel (better so spelled) coats are made from a coarse cloth with a thick nap (originally from Duffel in Brabant, hence the name), and fastened with wooden toggles.
The “donkey jacket” in question seemed to be cut from a good quality woollen cloth, like Crombie, and was fastened with buttons. Its length was the source of the solecism: on such occasions a full overcoat in black or very dark grey shows the proper respect to the dead.
This is one of those inaccurate stories (like Tebbit telling the workless to “get on their bikes”) which has acquired currency because it is, in a deeper sense, true: it sums the man up. One should not speak ill of the departed, but his founding membership of CND might tell us something about his attitude to the military.
It is (Better So spelled) DUFFLE see google !
And i do know what a DUFFLE coat is
as i have worn them and ive worn donkey jackets and crombies !

now that is rare !
David Cameron has just described Foot as a British hero on an equal footing to Churchill FFS! Is it possible that Dave cannot remember the utter hatred shown by Foot his entire life for conservatism and the right in general? Is it possible that Dave somehow forgets that Foot tried to sell out his own nation to the USSR?
In a gushing tribute to Foot Dave on the BBC Mr Cameron actually praised Foots fight against the nazis in the 30s and comparing him to Churchill FFS!
History is not really Dave(standing ovation 4 war criminals)Camerons strongest point, Foot did more to hold the fight against fascism than any BUF activist, Foot fought against re armament in the 30s and actively sabotaged the war preparations and indeed untill the Molotov/Von Ribbentrop pact fell apart he was opposed to the war and organised union activity against the war. While Churchill tried desperately to warn of the nazi menace Mr Camerons hero was fighting tooth and nail to prevent the UK from getting prepared.
So remind me again just why any real Tory would want to vote for this braindead traitor loving prick?
Dave is running out of minorities to fawn to.
Every time he finds a new minority voter with one of his grovels, he loses two core votes.
The truth hurts, but it has to be said.
“So remind me again just why any real Tory would want to vote for this braindead traitor loving prick?”
Yo mama’s a braindead traitor loving prick!
They wouln’t which is why he is going to loose the election and be an even bigger failure then Iain Duncan Smith. He’s just a silly rich kid playing in politics and pissing the family money against the wall.
prey tell when mr Foot the ANTI COMMUNIST tried to sell us out to Russia ?
Historical revisionism and transference seems to be strong traits with you leftists, allied to stunning ignorance of course.
Foot the right wing freedom fighting hero bravely fighting the USSR and the forces revolutionary Marxism while Thatcher plotted with her right wing friends to disarm the nation and pull out of NATO cease the alliance with the USA.
If you do not know what revisionist deconstructionism means then frankly you should be sent to visit the gulag museum.
Read Daniel Hannan post re Mr Foot on post 563 just below for a very balanced view
How about co-founding an organisation (CND) that sought to undermine our national security during the height of the Cold War whilst taking large donations from “unknown” sources?
Britain should not have declared war on Germany but just left them to invade Russia and remove the Bolshevic menace from Europe. Germany posed no threat to Britain. It’s enemy was the Soviet empire.
The Nazis. Trustworthy bunch weren’t they? Posed no threat to us. If we’d only let that nice Mr Hilter have what he wanted it would have all blown over like a doodlebug in a teacup.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought Britain was under very real threat of invasion by that nice Mr Hitler and his happy henchmen. Only decided against when his softening-up by blanket bombing and attempts to wipe out the RAF failed. If we’d lost the Battle of Britain, we’d be speaking Kraut now, as would the rest of Europe most likely.

angrysoba – I was agreeing with you, you daft ha’porth.
We soon will be speaking kraut thanks to McBust
The krauts decided to invade us after we declared war on them
Dan Hannan on Michael Foot.
A kind and accurate tribute.
http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/danielhannan/100028285/michael-foot-gods-englishman/
In the first days of Parliamentry coverage by radio, i heard him have the House in convulsions when, in ripping the piss out of some unfortunate opponent, he regaled them with a tale of the hapless magician who borrows a watch from a member of the audience, wraps it in a hankie and batters fuck out of it with a mallet. Comparing this trick with his opponents presentation left all the members roaring with laughter.
A witty and erudite humanitarian but probably too idealistic for pragmatic politics.
Dan once again shows his class. We should admire Michael Foot as a politician who dared to think differently and speak his mind, the opposite from the Labour party hacks of today.
That said, the best thing Michael Foot ever did was to lose the 1983 election to Margaret Thatcher.
An end of an era, riddance, I’m sure he is resting in peace knowing that the socialist/marxist agenda has been implemented beyond his wildest dreams.
State morning from the Beeb, the MSM are really showing their true colours.
Mourning!
On the other side of the fence an equal or greater number of people upon learning of Thatcher dropping off the perch will say, Rejoice! Rejoice!
Wait till Broon falls off the twig – the collective cheers of relief from Britain will be heard in Japan.
And if we think there’s something nasty about that then we won’t be hypocrites by pointing and jeering at those who died on either side of the fence.
All dead politicians are little better than crocodile shit – forget revisionism – they’ll know whether they made a difference or not before they’re cold.
OTish, or not, depending on your view of the glutinous encomiums heaped by Al-Jabeeba on the old fellow who has just been snatched from us at the cruelly early age of 96 …
I see on Facebook there is a group of illiterates who are pledged to withhold their collective telly tax. They numbered 554,607 just now. If each of these really does withhold the tax, that works out at:
554,607 x £142.50 = £79,031,497.50 or about £79m.
Add to that all the refuseniks, like me, who don’t belong to that group, and we may begin to get an idea why the BBC is “reallocating” £600m. “Spending more on programmes”, says Thompson. I think we may have heard that before.
Google “TV Licensing”, ignore the first few results, explore, have fun, save yourself £142.50, and watch the BBC eat itself. What’s not to like?
State broadcasting has been killed off in other countries by people refusing to pay.
Was it Australia?
It is time we followed in their footsteps.
Political bias, drug abuse, Jonathan Ross, tax avoidance and obscenely inflated salaries are why it has to go.
One could argue too that there is an extreme bias against white, heterosexual, centre right, employees.
After a dismal first-half display, England’s overpaid prima-donnas are getting beaten 1-0 by little Egypt.
ROTFLMFAO!!!
Is shagger Terry getting booed?
Yup.
LOL

It is kind of sad that the biggest thing he’ll be remembered for is that donkey jacket, though I guess that’s more than most of us get.
Donkeys rule!
Thanks for that – I laughed till I was hoarse.
Dan Hannan gave a kindly tribute to michael foot and defended foot against that historic accusation that he had been a kgb infiltrator of the british labour party. As always dan’s piece was well written.
But I think dan hannan’s too young to make such a categoric statement. What I will say is that whilst there is, at the moment, no categoric evidence that foot was a kgb infiltrator, there is no doubt that the labour party, on his watch , was infiltrated by kgb/communist/troskyite people and at very senior levels. And being the canny operator that he was, he surely knew about it.
Furthermore the infiltration that was happening then, still influences senior sections of today’s labour party at the highest level.
You mean Comintern is running Britain!!!!???!!!eleventy!!!?
I think Trotskyism has been far more influential in forming the current British labour party than comintern.
But in the present day the IFE is much more influential in labour’s evolution.
You only have to look at gordon’s laughable statement a couple of days ago saying that he would prevent the police force from ever becoming politicised and then look at the evidence of (labour’s) Sir Ian Blair having signed an agreement with an IFE supporter
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/politics/lawandorder/7339604/Sir-Ian-Blairs-deal-with-Islamic-radical.html
The problem for labour through recent generations is that it is vulnerable to international pressure groups because it doesn’t have a national interest.
So it wavers between trotskyism, communism, Islam/IFE, republicanism and at the same time it’s members trough the state big time – 5 star hotels, champagne socialism, limousines, expensive houses, 1st class travel.
The French and the Germans are patriotically for their own country’s.
The british labour party are only out for themselves and their corrupted ideals of international socialism.
They don’t give a toss about Britain. That is our problem!
Well said. Spot on.
And being a politician works wonders when you’re trying to pull.
The commies were always funding the unions and doing anything they could to undermine this country. There are some people, in the labour party, past and present, who should hang their heads in shame for shitting on their own country. But they won’t, because at heart they are still marxists, but they knew they’d never get elected under a commie manifesto so they because “New” labour…the rest is history…
Thank God for the CIA black ops here in the ’50s. Without that Britain could easily have been coerced to renounce nukes.
I heard some talking head on the Beeb mention Michael Foot in the same sentence as Jack Jones as committed members of the Labour party. For years, Jack Jones denied his involvement with the USSR and after he died left wing sympathisers repeated this. The day after his obituary appeared in the Telegraph, Oleg Gordievsky wrote in to state that as KGB man in London, he, Gordievsky, had paid Jack Jones money from the Soviet government on two occasions.
I await what comes out of the woodwork now that Foot has died.
I came across Foot twice in my life. On both occasions I was not impressed. Sorry, but in my book, anyone who wants to be Prime Minister of the UK has to be an outstanding person.
I don’t think there is any reason to insult him or speak ill of the dead but I met him whilst he was alive and I didn’t think he was up to the job.
With regard to the “Donkey Jacket” incident, it wasn’t a donkey jacket but it was inappropriate for the Cenotaph. He was wealthy enough to have bought a decent overcoat and he certainly should have worn a black tie. He either didn’t appreciate what he was doing or he possibly didn’t think it was important. Either way, not the actions of a potential statesman.
I sincerely hope God will forgive the sins of the Tory posters here today.
Let them ponder upon the unchristian comments they have made regarding Mr Michael Foot and wonder about the sickness and ungenerosity of their words.
Attacking a man on the day he died is a below contempt and by doing so they have let down and degraded only themselves.
Maybe if they go to confession and get down on their knees and pray for forgiveness and really mean it then they will be forgiven for the sins they have committed today. Admittedly it is a big maybe but God is all forgiving so at least they have the chance of redemption.
Amen.
Go in peace.
Where do you think they got the tag of “The Nasty Party”?
If I were you I’d hold tight when Mrs, Thatcher passes on. I predict that the lefties will make some pretty outrageous comments, many of which will make the comments about Michael Foot seem polite.
I hope and pray that Mrs Thatcher does not drop dead before the General Election but should she do so I would implore Labour posters to not attack her memory as the Tory posters have attacked the memory of Mr Foot today.
I am shocked and saddened by the disgusting comments made by the Tory posters on this site and I feel that the owner of this site bears some moral responsibity for letting such nasty attacks on the memory of a dead man to go unmoderated. The owner of this site should be ashamed of himself and should also get down on his knees and beg forgiveness form our Lord.
If the type of unchristian, Satanic behaviour I have witnessed as a new reader here today is what comes from a blog that is not moderated responsibly and shows no consideration whatsoever for the feelings of others then perhaps a Godless site like this is something that good and decent people should avoid at all costs. The author of this place would do well to pray for guidance on this matter.
Again I would like to say may God forgive the Satanic Tory posters who have made their hate filled attacks upon a dead man on this site today.
I will pray for your souls and I suggest you pray for them too.
Good night gentlemen(?) and God bless.
Just wait ’till McBroon falls off the twig…..
Goodnight all.
do fuck off!
foot was a twat!
and i am not a tory……………
ooooooooh let’s start prattling on about the nasty party again then?
we all know that thatcher impaled 100 children every morning and then ate their brains raw with some soy sauce and wasabi!!!!!!!!!!!
and there is no big sky pixie……….
take the blinkers off………think for yourself.
come up with something original…………..
Foot was an atheist.
What do you think god’s going to say to Mr.Foot eh?
“see – I do exist”
Jesus and his Disciples were traveling through a rugged, provincial part of Judea, when they saw a medium sized crowd gathered on the outskirts of a small village, obviously agitated about something. Politely pushing his way into the center of the mosh, his faithful friend Peter close by his side in case of any trouble, Jesus saw, with a sinking feeling in his stomach, that a poor young woman, covered in blood, was the obvious main attraction.
‘What in the Lord’s name are you up here?’ He asked, already fearing the worst for the poor girl’s safety.
‘She’s an adulterous whore!,’ said the largest and ugliest of the scruffy villagers, presumably their leader, ‘We’re stoning her to death!’
This is terrible, thought Jesus, I’ve got to come up with a good one, before something terrible happens here…
‘Look!,’ He said, thinking on his feet, ‘Let those amongst you who are without sin themselves cast the next stone!’
It worked. The shouting and commotion stopped, and some of the villagers started casting sheepish and guilty looks at each other. One by one, the stones they had been holding thudded harmlessly to the ground.
All of a sudden, half a housebrick came arching out of nowhere, spun over their heads, and hit the poor, battered woman square on the head; she dropped like a sack of spuds, stone dead.
Jesus spun round to see who’d thrown the housebrick. When he saw them, his shoulders slumped in defeat.
‘Look, Mother,’ He snapped, ‘I thought I’d told you to stay out of this…’
Such a joke only makes sense if you follow Roman Catholic Theology which declares that Mary Herself as well as her son Jesus is without sin. This is the true meaning of the doctrine of the Immaculate conception, which you will notice is often confused with the Doctrine of the Virgin Birth which is another issue entirely. This Mary without sin doctrine was not apparently a belief of the early church and in fact is rejected by Protestant churches as unscriptural. I trust this hasnt spoilt the your enjoyment of this joke.
OK then. “Dad – You bastard!”
Now Protestants can get it too.
“The Labour Party is a moral crusade or it is nothing ”
Well guess it is nothing then !
The Labour Party is now bankrupt and its leader seems to be like Breshnev! On life support and likely to follow michael Foot as Gordon Brown has one foot in the grave as well!
Is this a titfer free zone yet?
Jeez, the little squirt had more comebacks than Gary Glitter.
I am sure he will be here long after you’ve gone.
M8.
E’es busy. Soon come.
Foot would not have associated with this fellow:

Even Margret Thatcher said that Foot was always a Gent to her, yes Foot was a leftwing trot and I am not a fan of communinst/socialist surrender. He was still a gent and even though i dispise socialism, he was a hell of a lot better than Gordon Brown who allowed the scum bag in the link to be a cllr representing Labour and a load of silly fuckwits who always vote labour!!!

From the latest poll it ooks like the continued sight of Labour and Tory reps slagging each other off for the same offence has benefited the Lib Dems.

If you had a fucking clue about the legal system, then you’d realise that he faces a parole hearing and – if he’s committed further offences – potentially a trial. He’s a sick, twisted individual that should never have been freed in the first place – but, given the situation we’re in, he has a right to a fair trial the same as anyone else.
Now, you’ve joined the bandwagon with the rest of the tabloid press because you would rather selectively apply the law to individuals to satiate your curiosity. Prior to yesterday, you didn’t give a fuck about Venables when he was out and about in society, at large. Does it really matter to *you* if he was recalled for shoplifting or taking a baboon up the arse?
Michael Foot brought the trotskyite/labour dreams to an end when he lost the 1983 election. gordon is following a very similar international course with different / IFE/ people. In terms of lack of popularity he is very similar to foot.
gordon is going into the 2010 election as the IFE/labour candidate.
I paraphrase Rawnsley’s last paragraph’s in his book ‘The End of the Party’ and hope that he will forgive me.
“gordon is liked even less than labour. His personal ratings are uniformly dire. Opinion polls suggest that less than one third of the electorate are satisfied with his performance as prime minister.
bliar and mandy thought they had rebuilt labour’s popularity after foot etc and now it is collapsing again!
The founding father’s (bliar and mandy) of new labour are watching the crumbling away of their personal and political dreams ( shorthand = gordon is trashing everything they built)
At least the unions don’t call the shots anymore…
Oh! don’t think so. UNITE is very powerful – and Charlie Whelan one of UNITE’s most senior officer’s has unlimited access to gordon and no.10.
He is, in fact, alongside edballs , gordon’s personal attack and smear squad.
And then there’s UNITE’s jackdromey. He has just blasted through labour’s all women MP shortlist to be parachuted into sion simon’s , Labour Safe, Birmingham Erdington seat.
Don’t underestimate the corrupt influence of the Unions on this weak labour government!
Any intelligent suggestion as to why we, middle britain, should vote for labour hmm?
If labour wants us to vote for them – then they must tell us why in sensible sentences that are free of offensive language.
I appreciate that that is difficult , since gordon and even the Chancellor’s wife speak in the most foul expletives imaginable in every other word that they utter.
I guess that is what labour stands for.!!
In the rough working environment i inhabit, boys call each other the most obscene names imaginable and yet it is all said with a smile.
It’s not the language used, but the intent behind it.
There are indeed rough working environments where extreme bad language is regarded as acceptable.
I do not believe it is acceptable for the head of our government, representing our country to the rest of the world, to be heard, publicly using, the most foul, gutter language that gordon is using!
And it most certainly shouldn’t be the case for the the Chancellor’s wife to be using the most offensive language known to man!!!
What an absolute disgrace this labour government and their spouses have made of Britain!
There are indeed rough working environments where extreme bad language is regarded as acceptable.
Farage seems to think the European Parliament is one.
Swearing does not define class !
While stitching up the hand of a 75 year old Devon farmer, who cut it on a gate while working cattle, the rural doctor struck up a conversation with the old man. Eventually the topic got around to Gordon Brown and his appointment as Prime Minister.
Well, you know,” drawled the old farmer, “this Brown fellow is what they call a fencepost tortoise.” Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him what a fencepost tortoise was. The old farmer said, “When you’re driving along a country road and you come across a fence post with a tortoise balanced on top, that’s called a fencepost tortoise.”
The old farmer saw a puzzled look on the doctor’s face, so he continued to explain, “You know he didn’t get up there by himself, he definitely doesn’t belong up there, he doesn’t know what to do while he is up there, and you just have to wonder what kind of idiot put him up there in the first place.

Well aintbustinagut/labour/ internatonal socialist – I can tell you now – the men who have died in Afghanistan and Iraq because of labour’s failures -will not be forgotten.
And neither will labour’s absolute, abject failure in providing them with the right equipment.
The scandal of labour’s failure to look after our troops in the field in Iraq and Afghanistan will keep rumbling down the generations for years to come!!
You’re not supporter of brown or cameron – but you are afraid to say who you are supporter of – hmmm?
Well perhaps those reading your comments should vote liberal then should they????
You need to have the courage of your convictions sweetie – if you want people to vote for you!!
Tell us what you stand for? You are in good company. gordon’s not doing it either!!!

Foot was shit. Brown is real Labour and he’s going to destroy Cameron’s C’untservatives. Deal with it, Tory McBrides. You fuckwitted CCHQ c’unts. Brown will win and we’ll introduce AV and you’ll never get power again.
Brown’s a bullying cock who likes to scream at women in his office.
Rawnsley says you’re full of shit, son. Never happened. FAIL.
These CCHQ trolls are fucking fuckwitted c’unts. When Brown wins, we’ll bring in AV and give peerages to Blunkett, Hoon and Beckett just to wind you fuckwits up.

Hayek argued that the social control over distribution of wealth and private property advocated by socialists cannot be achieved without reduced prosperity for the general populace, and a loss of political and economic freedoms.

At the height of the trials, in February 1938, Tribune argued, ‘Many socialists may be horrified by the suppression of those in Soviet Russia who are critical of the regime. But who can believe that the transformation of old Russia into a socialist society could proceed without severity or without error’.
I see no evidence that Foot was anything other than a fellow-traveller of the internationalist wing which split on tactics with the new socialism in one country wing as put developed by Trotsky’s rival for the socialist soul Stalin.
These two unconnected postings on wednesday quoted above are well suited to define the development of the socialist ethos as it still prevails in the Uk today… in the Russia context of the day there was no democratic freedom and thence no need to persuade just coerce demand and as necessary remove dissenting voices to reduce the remainder down to the lowest denominator..state dependancy.
In transposing that culture to the Uk the ability to quell our democracy was impossible so the strategy of seeking to neuter the wealth bearing class and it’s ability to influence events developed. The perpetual crowing of inequality was defined by wealth or lack of it regardless of purpose but merely to promulgate the socialist creed. The ‘we know best’ dogma ‘because you are poor and thus done down’ has remained ever since.
The current labour government inherited a very healthy economy and have spent 13 years steadily dismantling that to a point now where they want us to think about the future disregarding their past, ignore the outdated way in which they seek to rule and divide and believe they have plausible ways forward in which we can have faith. They are as deluded now as Michael Foot was in 1983 when they had the worst loss in 60 years.
What a pleasure it would be to see that statistic changed to the worst loss in 86 years on May 6th to finally nail this shower of hypocrites.
Can I have wot yr on ?

What a pleasure it would be to see that statistic changed to the worst loss in 86 years on May 6th to finally nail this shower of hypocrites.
The BBC’s reverential valedictories to abject political failure”Wurzel Gummage”, as he was fondly known to Private Eye, are sickening, and a sad contrast to its sarcastic coverage of Ted Heath’s demise a few years back. But I suppose only to be expected.
A message for all the cowards who think that libelling a man just after he died is the appropriate thing to do – when someone dies if you cannot say anything nice the best thing to do is to keep your mouths shut, the silence will speak far more eloquently than you are able to do.
Haven’t read anything here people haven’t said many times before when Michael Foot was alive apart from several conspicously nasty comments from perpetual plebs.
Nobody of a civilised disposition would express anything other than sorrow for his family and friends but he was no shrinking violet and I am sure he would relish and indeed be flattered that he could still excite such diverse comment..good or bad.
Good riddance!
