Gordon Sees the Light

Westminster is reeling this afternoon, and it’s not because of the lunchtime Guinness or the tears of laughter at the Liberal Democrat’s new campaign theme tune. There is a sense of bemusement that for once the Prime Mentalist has admitted that one of his lines has unravelled after some gentle probing from Cathy Newman. The spinners are suggesting Gordon might have mis-spoken to Chilcott about defence spending increasing, but the line falls flat given he not only said it at the inquiry but again on radio and television last week and again in the House at last weeks PMQs.  So unused is he to any admission on fallibility from Gordon that a shocked Dave seemed lost for words and didn’t put the boot in sufficiently.

Brown’s dogged determination that he is always right has taken a mighty blow. Perhaps now time to admit a few other home truths. Boom and bust anyone?

    New Labour is on course to win an unprecedented fourth term in power.

    Under Gordon Brown, Britain can look forward to a new decade of unprecedented prosperity, progress and change.

    Bring on the Election!

            Don’t you worry. By the time the BBC reports this (if at all) it will be reported as a ‘clarification’. It will emphatically not be reported as an embarrassing climb-down vindicating those who questioned the Maximum Imbeciles testimony.

            You forget – only a small number of political obsessives watch PMQ and 99.9% of them already have their mind made up either way.

            These lies will go unreported or at best unemphasised by the BBC and Brown will just lie onwards. Fuckwits uber alles.

            We at the BBC will pull our usual trick of leading on this story overnight (0000 to 0530) and then we’ll bury it.

            When questioned we will point out that it was our top headline for, well, hours and hours and hours…

            Yep back onto Lord Ashcroft on Toady. Whelan’s ‘insulted’ to be compared with him, says more about Whelan than anything else – anyway straw man as the true comparison’s with Lord Appall – neither of them are fit to tie Ashcroft’s shoelaces.

            Barely a mention of the PM lying to Chilcott, Parliament and the media about his defence cuts contributing to the death and injury of hundreds of men and women.

          • Here in the World they led with yet more about the Church of the Holy Left Foot and the kiddie fiddling antics of its priests. They followed this with a story about a South African rapper called “Jub Jub” who’s in court on murder charges.

          “Dave seemed lost for words”

          Dave is always lost for words, 1200 patients dying, two utterly feeble questions about the Health Authority, then completely forgotten.

          Bruin lying to the house and throughout the entire media, skipped over by Dave.
          You could write a list ten pages long about the shit this “government” / cabal of thieves, perverts and liars has done in the last twelve months alone.
          Open goal after open goal, yet Dave misses every time.

          It can`t be coincidence, so either it`s deliberate because he will change nothing and does not want to be called out for saying one thing in opposition and doing the exact opposite in power, or he is shit.

          My money is on shit.

          • Disaffected says:

            There comes a time when the most intelligent can only look in disbelief, what a lying, under hand, buyllying wanker McSlug is. Thank God ther is only six weeks to get Dave in the chair and sort out the mess Labour have created and tried covering up. Let’s hope McSlug apologises to the military chiefs he claimed were wrong, let him apologise to the wounded and dead for his grave failings for not providing enough money for equipment. Let’s hope McSlug and McBlaire get properly investigated, charged and convicted for war crimes. let us also not forgoet Bad Al PressSlugretary. he needs a conviction as well. Fuck the unions.

          • Man the boats says:

            Brown cant even tell the truth when he admits he lied – he admitted that in one or two years the defence budget did not rise in real terms but it actually occured on three occassions – how can anyone trust a word he says

          • Brown knows only how to lie says:

            According to Brown, it was 1 or 2. Actually, it was 5 occasions; 1998, 1999, 2000, 2002 and 2007

          • Yet another Brown lie exposed. And they want us to trust them with another 5 years??

            How many more Labour lies??

          • Anonymous says:

            Yeah 5 occassions if you use the fiddled figures but how many years if you use the true figures ??

          • I seems to remember there’s another little fiddle Brown doesn’t mention.

            If my memory hasn’t completely failed it goes like this:

            Every government department pays a sort of land tax back to the Treasury for supposed services rendered. If I remembers correctly this used to be calculated differently for different types of land. Offices in London costing lots, empty fields in Scotland costing not a lot at all and so on.

            Since the MoD owns lots of the latter, but not to much of the former it didn’t used to get whacked too badly. At least not until someone (reputedly one G Brown Esq, purveyor of fuckups to the nation since 1997) apparently changed the formula to something closer to a flat rate per square foot.

            With billions of acres of countryside needed for driving tanks, playing cowboys and indians and so on, the MoD’s land tax suddenly went through the roof.

            I’d be very interested if anyone could provide evidence to show whether this was true and what the effect on the defence budget was if it is.

          • City of Vice says:

            100% agree. Dave is going to have to up his game. Otherwise sooner rather than later -i.e. after Broon and his thieves have been ejected from government – we are going to need a palace coup to replace Dave with someone who is capable of effective leadership and ‘can do’ the urgent tasks needed.

            ‘Not being Brown’ simply won’t be enough in the longer term.

      Repeat after me please

      DAVID CAMERON IS A SHIT

      Tory boot boys show their true colours by going berserk about working people funding Labour.

      But better a party rooted in ordinary lives than a Conservative conspiracy operating as the political front of international taxdodgers and banksters who destroyed the economy.

      David Cameron shedding his huskyloving greenwash to come out as a hysterical union-reds-underthe-bed-son-of-Thatcher is a blessing in disguise.

      From the pantomime foaming and frothing of excitable Cons you’d think they’d uncovered a Labour-union link that’s been kept secret since Keir Hardie 110 years ago.

      Yet by painting Labour as a party that’s gone backwards, the Tories demonstrate their own unfitness for the future.

      Their old anti-union prejudices and instincts to demonise workers are as poisonous as ever in the unmodernised Conservatives.

      Alongside rabid slashing of services, tax credit cuts for the many and inheritance tax cuts for the few, we may now add a hatred of organisations representing people ineligible for membership of the Bullingdon Club.

          Want some more ?

          Cameron will run for Downing Street on a ticket to wind back the clock to the 1980s, an era of mass hopelessness and public squalor. The echo of Thatcher and Tebbit was audible in the Tory robots regurgitating ridiculous scripts about Unite and its political director Charlie Whelan.

          So preposterous are the powers the Cons invest in Whelan they’ll be claiming next he can heal David Beckham’s Achilles tendon with the touch of his hands before picking the England World Cup squad.

          The only conspiracy is the Conservative spin to present Cameron’s party as good for Britain when there’s nothing patriotic about the Cons making the BA dispute trickier to resolve.

          I hope the British Airways dispute is settled or either the company or cabin crew, or both, will get hurt.

          Ba boss Willie Walsh is widely quoted as saying “a reasonable man gets nowhere in negotiations” when he was a union rep for Irish pilots.

          I believe if he’s reasonable and puts a compromise deal back on the table, his planes will stay flying.

          Should Walsh, who earned a fearsome jobshedding reputation as boss of Aer Lingus, try to smash Unite, then BA passengers should make alternative arrangements.

          Logic dictates Gordon Brown cannot be in the pocket of Unite when we all see and hear him condemning the union’s threatened walkout.

          The Prime Minister clearly doesn’t want BA cabin crew to strike.

          Can we say the same of a Leader of the Opposition scoring political points?

          PARACHUTED INTO A SAFE LIEBOUR SEAT, DESPITE IT BEING RECOGNISED AS NEEDING ALL WOMEN AND ETHNIC SHORTLISTS.

          THIS DECISION WAS TAKEN BY LIEBOUR’S DECISION MAKING BODY, THE NEC.

          • Disaffected says:

            Hopefully, Dave can bash the unions like Maggie did. Clearly Liebour did not want to reverse her good work over the last 13years. McBlair wanted to shut the steel industry to provide for his Liebour donor. Corrupt, scandolous, revolting people the lot of them. BBC shold be proud of themselves when they spin this over the next couple of days. Clearly the news has got McBride and Whelan aka Martin Day and Thick as thieves to write frantically.

            You’ve got the wrong bloke, mate.

            Dave and his team can’t manage a knockout blow against the most dysfunctional government in living memory.

            How in god’s name do you think he’s going to solve the most appalling financial crisis this nation has ever faced and take on the unions?

            If Dave wins the election, it’ll be for 18 months at the most before a new election ushers in a decade of ZaNuLabia and annihilation for this poor bloody country of ours.

        LYING BROWN DEMOLISHED
        “Brown is a compulsive liar, he has no truth in his soul.”
        His accompanying comments about “character” appeared to have been scripted by a comedian in need of some fresh material.
        “For better or worse, with me what you see is what you get,” said Mr Brown. It is a line so at odds with reality, so manifestly untrue, so utterly ridiculous that one barely knows where to start challenging it.
        Was this the same Mr Brown whose shameless evidence to the Chilcot Inquiry was dismissed by Army chiefs as “disingenuous”? The same Mr Brown who unleashed the “forces of hell” on his own chancellor? The same Mr Brown who cannot walk past a national statistic without rebasing its measurement for narrow political advantage (crime, inflation, growth)?
        When events defy the Prime Minister’s preferred view of the world, he has a remarkable capacity for applying the Tipp-Ex. History doesn’t haunt him because he either ignores or rewrites it. No British leader in my lifetime has embraced the technique of veracity evasion with greater enthusiasm.
        Mr Brown’s most egregious abuse of our credulity, “no more boom and bust”, has been expunged from the script. In its place is a claim that his genius saved us from the ravages of an American-inspired crash. Rather than expiate his sins of profligacy, he seeks to exploit them. Financial disaster is repackaged as a tactical triumph: his triumph.
        “I won’t let you down,” Mr Brown promises. Too late, old son, you already have.

        Even Mandelson is raising concerns about their influence on candidate selection policy.

        Don’t come the innocent. Unite ain’t standing in any election they are buying a government.

    Unite trade union paying wages of top Gordon Brown official

    One of Gordon Brown’s senior officials at No 10 is entirely paid by the Unite trade union, the Standard reveals today.

    Clare Moody, a national officer for the trade union behind the British Airways cabin crew strike, has been given a desk in the Prime Minister’s political office that deals with policy development and government relations.

    Although she works in the heart of Downing Street, her salary and pension are “100 per cent” met by the trade union.

    The disclosure comes amid serious concern in Labour circles about the massive and growing influence over the Labour party wielded by Unite — and the four-day delay before the Prime Minister directly criticised the union over the BA dispute.

    Lord Mandelson is known to be concerned that the union is carving up Labour selection meetings to win seats in the Commons for its members.

    He reportedly intervened to help a Blairite moderniser on to the shortlist in James Purnell’s old parliamentary seat in defiance of Unite officials who had rejected the moderniser. The Standard telephoned Ms Moody via the Downing Street switchboard today.

Misleading the House of Commons is a very serious matter, I presume that if Gordon Brown does not apologise of his own free will then an apology will be demanded of him by the House of Commons authorities. The Channel 4 summary is “Gordon Brown’s central claim… is fiction”.

    Lord Ashcroft and William Hague

    2 more Tory Shits to add to the collection

    Lord Ashcroft has been accused of “terrible discourtesy” for failing to respond to an inquiry into the controversial circumstances surrounding his peerage.

    The Commons Public Administration Select Committee is holding a special one-off hearing into the “non-dom” Tory donor’s award, but has not heard back after inviting him to give evidence.

    The three Conservative MPs on the committee have said they will not take part in the session to explore the undertakings Lord Ashcroft gave about taking up residence in the UK when he was made a peer in 2000, fearing it would be used for “political purposes”.

    The inquiry follows the billionaire businessman’s disclosure that he had retained non-domiciled status for tax purposes, which meant he has not had to pay UK taxes on his overseas earnings, much of it believed be in the Central American state of Belize.

    Raising a point of order, Labour committee member Gordon Prentice (Pendle) said invitations to give evidence had been ignored by both Conservative deputy chairman Lord Ashcroft and William Hague, who was Tory leader at the time and supported the peerage being granted.

    This may have been alluded to already and if so, apologies.

    In his response today on defence spending, Brown said that it rose at below inflation in “one or two years”. In fact, it rose at below inflation, according to the figure released to the HoC Library in the years 1998, 1999, 2000, 2002 and 2007, i.e. in five years. That’s four out of the ten he was CofE, so infact in almost half the years he held the purse strings it was below inflation. I wonder if he will be taken to task on this at next week’s PMQs?

    It also happens that in 2007, when Iraq was still a battleground and Afghanistan was escalating, and Brown became PM, defence spending as a proportion of GDP hit it’s lowest level since 1930.

    Brown has left himself open to a relentless attack on this front now.

      It proves at long last that Brown has never really supported the Armed Services and it was only when he became PM that he found it politically necessary to do so……. a recall beckons before the Chilcot Enquiry methinks along with his previous boss,Tony Bliar,who is already to scheduled to re-appear to clear up certain confusions in various witnesses recollections and his own recollection of events

    GORDON,

    WHO TOLD LIES, AND WAS BURNED TO DEATH

    GORDON told such Dreadful Lies,
    It made one Gasp and Stretch one’s Eyes;
    His Father, who, from his Earliest Youth,
    Had kept a Strict Regard for Truth,
    Attempted to Believe Gordon:
    The effort very nearly killed Him,
    And would have done so, had not He
    Discovered this Infirmity.
    For once, towards the Close of Day,
    Gordon, growing tired of play,
    And finding he was left alone,
    Went tiptoe to the Telephone
    And summoned the Immediate Aid
    Of Renfrewshire’s Noble Fire-Brigade.
    Within an hour the Gallant Band
    Were pouring in on every hand,
    From Glasgow, Orkney Downs, and John Ogrow.
    With Courage high and Hearts a-glow,
    They galloped, roaring through the Town,
    ‘Gordon’s House is Burning down!’
    Inspired by Scottish Cheers and Loud
    Proceeding from the Frenzied Crowd,
    They ran their ladders through a score
    Of windows on the Ball Room Floor;
    And took Peculiar Pains to Souse
    The Pictures up and down the House,
    Until Gordon’s Father succeeded
    In showing them they were not needed;
    And even then He had to pay
    To get the Men to go away!

    It happened that a few Weeks later
    His Father was off to the Theatre
    To see that Interesting Play
    The Second Mrs. Tanqueray.
    He had refused to take his Son
    To hear this Entertaining Piece:
    A Deprivation Just and Wise
    To Punish him for Telling Lies.
    That Night a Fire did break out–
    You should have heard dear old Gordon Shout!
    You should have heard him Scream and Bawl,
    And throw the window up and call
    To People passing in the Street–
    (The rapidly increasing Heat
    Encouraging him to obtain
    Their confidence) — but all in vain!
    For every time he shouted ‘Fire!’
    They only answered ‘Little Liar!’
    And therefore when his Father returned,
    Gordon, and the House, were Burned.

Much of the drug problems come from Colombia which is on the same continent as Belize, thus proving beyond doubt that it is all down to Ashcroft.

    Even when Gordon Brown is forced to admit he has made a mistake, he still cannot bring himself to tell the truth. At today’s PMQ’s the prime minister was finally forced to admit something most of us knew already, that, as Chancellor, he presided over a cut, in real terms, in the defence budget.

    Mr Brown has, of course, been in denial about this rather important fact for many years. He even maintained the fiction that the defence budget had increased under his watch when he appeared before the Chilcot Inquiry. But today he was finally forced to admit that the opposite was the case, and that he had presided over a reduction in the defence budget at the same time as his government expected the military to fight two wars at the same time, in Iraq and Afghanistan.

    But even when he was forced on the defensive by hostile questioning by David Cameron, Mr Brown still could not bring himself to tell the whole truth. He admitted that “in one or two years” defence spending had fallen in real terms, when in fact official MOD figures show the budget declined in most of the years he was chancellor.

    Now the cat is out of the bag, perhaps Mr Brown would like to come clean on what has really happened to the defence budget during the past 13 years of Labour misrule.

      Brown is guilty of public deception, lying to Parliament and uttering complete lies to an official Inquiry. Can understand now why this was not carried out under oath. He would be in a cell today on the way to the Old Bailey.

      The Radio 4 Today coverage has been zero, on a par with recent events in Glasgow and the Hollie/paedophile activity in Scotland, but their whole team focus is on the non-dom status of one Tory (avoiding the same issues for Labour donors). Pathetic biased journalism.

    BBC CAMPAIGNS FOR NEW LABOUR says:

    Cameron’s response was very poor, he just can’t think on his feet, William Hague would have done a much better job, another golden opportunity wasted, Brown could never have been so relieved to have got a way with it so easily. But whats a Prime Minister lying. Its nothing now. Its not even spin. Its blatant lying. Nobody cares, after all its only politics. Blair and Brown, can you believe it. In 13 years they’ve transformed this country into junk Britain.
    Brown’s lies to Chilcot over military funding are considered such a normal example of his lying by the BBC that they hardly warrant a mention let alone a criticism by the labour crony BBC political commentators.
    No no, lets keep the Ashcroft story going as much as we can and make the BBC news/leaks about it the main news story. It lets Charlie Whealan and all the other dangerous dogs off the hook so thats fine and who gives a damn about our soldiers. Brown as chancellor cheated the forces as much to punish Blair and attempt to prevent his Falklands moment as he did out ignorance and his twisted spite. At heart he’s a closet Scot who hates England and the English and likes nothing more than to heap damage on our country and its institutions. Funny how Blair’s got away with it Scot free.
    After the Today programme this morning the BBC complaints line would not even accept calls about the programme’s bias.
    We all know how dirty this election is going to be and the Torys have got to fight the BBC every step of the way. However it really does show just how panicked No 10 is and once again their contempt for the great majority of the British public.
    Brown nevers fails to produce a new low in British politics, sorry, I think he would prefer to refer to it as Global politics.

    I don’t know why people are calling Gordon a liar ( sorry mispoke), after all he thinks its the truth and if he keeps on telling everybody long enough maybe they will believe it too.
    After all he is the “right man for the job” as he is always repeating in public. That over 90% of the UK population think he is a totally useless wanker does not come into his fantasy world.
    Now we learn that 1 billion has been spent in restructuring government to no significant benefit. How much equipment would that have bought for the military in Iraq or Afganistan.
    The man is Dangerous, he has cost lives and anyone who votes for him needs to have their head examined.

    Pox on 'em all says:

    I won’t be forgetting ‘boom & bust’ for years, just as I haven’t forgotton the Tories on VAT in 1979…

    Or the 3 million unemployed…

    TWICE…

    Or the 15% interest rates…

    Or screening adverts on helping the unemployed during the News At Ten, a favourite program for the groups most likely to be unemployed…

    Or the ‘neutral’ Bernard Ingham…

    Or their ‘bonfire of business regulations’ (just look where that policy under Brown has got us)…

    They weren’t adverse to speed camaras either….
