Labour’s Dirty Dozen

This is the line-up of Labour figures who are either facing criminal charges for theft, have been suspended from the party, suspended from the Lords, found to be expense fiddling, offering to whore themselves out or some permutation of all of the above.  Byers, Hewitt, Hoon, Devine, Chaytor, Morley, Baroness Uddin, Lords Blackburn, Truscott, Snape and Moonie, last but not least, Margaret Moran.  To describe these people as morally flawed fails to capture their essence.  These are just some of the Labour politicians who have been caught.

The majority of Labour MPs were ordered to repay expense “over-claims” – fiddles in normal language. In the real world employees caught fiddling on this scale would be fired.  MPs are supposed to work for you, remember that on election day…

        Have a look at his take on the horrible profile written about his boss on Sunday. You don’t have to be a UKIP supporter to sympathise with Nigel Farage on this. I’ve seen some wretched pieces of journalism, but to attack a man for having had can-cer is exquisitely disgusting.

            All this on top of :

            - misuse of Commons headed paper to defend her spanish hideaway AND
            - using it to get support for her company, eQuality Networks Ltd
            - getting the dry rot fixed in her mate’s home (after just flippin’ flipping); and
            - using her COmmons expenses to pay Carter Ruck to defend the above

            Why is she not locked up?

            And still the BBC is wittering on about their story of 20 MPs travelling abroad and not regisitering it. Pure deflection to help Liebour claim that they are all it rather than focus on the ex-ministers failings. Un-fcuking-believeable, propoganda. Mandelslug still has the temerity to be the Liebour spokesperson to the BBC on the issue after what he has done- why don’t the interviewers ask him what right he has to voice an opinion. He also helped ruin the career of Elizabeth Filkin for daring to investigate his dodgy mortgage with Britania with the help of Geoffrey Robinson, when it was her job to clear up corruption in parliament for which he was part.

            BBC propaganda- sub-standard reporting for the welfare state.

        Don’t froget BARON MANDELSON (of Foy, Herefordshire & of Hartlepool, Durham). Sec of State for Business, Innovation & Skills. First Secretary of State and Lord President of the Council. Privy Council member.
        The current New Labour government has been in power for over 13 years. It failed in its duty of care to ensure appropriate, rigorous oversight of the City and high finance and of Parliament itself. This was its responsibility, but then it always viewed the tax receipts it gained from the City as its own personal cash cow. It conveniently ignored the reality that ultimately everyone pays for this, none more so than the poorest in society, who despite New Labour’s efforts it has failed on an epic scale.
        This revenue source was crucial to New Labour as its answer to everything is to spend money. Just the other week New Labour held a fundraiser in the City aiming for its financial support, and Brown told the City “I will not let you down”.
        Theirs are empty sentiments and false words. Face facts Britain. I make no case for the Conservatives and rather expect some of their ranks to do the same in time should they gain power. But we have all been tricked by a bunch of con men, claiming to be ‘whiter than white’, champagne socialists who never believe in sharing the same rations as or of marching shoulder to shoulder with ‘the people’ they say they care about..
        In truth they hold the ordinary voter in utter contempt, lying through their teeth as easily as sipping tea whilst feathering their own nests at any opportunity. Such has been the nature of this government that not only has opportunity frequently arisen, it has been the primary objective of the architects of New Labour.
        I once heard a wise old man describe such hypocrisy something like this:
        “The stench of hypocrisy is overwhelming. It is like the rank smell of a gigantic open sewer, or of being in a field of week-old corpses, on the hottest day of the year”.
        In what we call a democracy the electorate have one chance every five years or so to remind ‘honourable members of parliament’ that they are the salaried employees of the people and that their job is to serve them, not themselves. When they fail on such an epic scale and have been found to have been lying and feathering their own nests while others suffer, the people must punish them.
        What can the people of Britain do? Not much many would argue, but what you emphatically do not do is vote the same government back in again, regardless of whether or not you regard them as ‘your party’ and dislike the other lot. There comes a time when a different party deserves a go for a change.
        This is more than simply the minimum requirement. It is a moral duty.

            Besides, it’s far from given that the Israelis would share such intelligence even if they had it.

            Add to the mix the current settlement expansion, and it’s time to ratchet up the pressure on the land thieves – trade sanctions will be next on the agenda, after Omaha Beach gives Netenyahoo a bollocking today, of course.

        @Certified Independent!
        Firstly, study Mandelson’s face very carefully. This man, like Blair and the rest of New (Age) Labour, is a congenital and habitual liar. Study him.
        No, we haven’t forgotten miscreants from other parties, but the majority are sleazy New Labour liars and hypocrits. More to the point however, it is Labour who (rightly, I voted for them) won in 1997 complaining about Tory sleaze. That was nothing compared to the state of things today.
        It is the New Labour government who have been in power for almost a decade and a half and who undermined and forced out Elizabeth Filkin, Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards, ‘because she attempted to tackle the prevailing culture of corruption in politics’.
        It is the New Labour government whose Speaker tried everything possible to stop the Telegraph blowing the lid on the expenses scandel because so many MPs across the board but including Ministers of the Crown were ripping the public off, and who conducted a witch hunt against the whistleblower (may he/she be showered with heaven’s blessings).
        New Labour & The City have bankrupted the nation. Poor oversight of dodgy practices allowed it to happen…New Labour’s responsibility. Failed again.
        ‘New Labour will rule’ said Brown on becoming our unelected PM, along with ‘British jobs for British workers’, whilst New Labour deliberately instigated mass immigration whilst lying massively about the figures…driving down wages and standards for their own traditional voters and creating a powder keg in future in Britain…or should we say England, for I’ll bet you the population of Scotland has not risen at all.
        It is the New Labour government who slipped young lads a couple of grand to die abroad serving their government’s call to arms, whilst the government and its supporters stuck their noses in the trough containing taxpayers’ money and started a feeding frenzy.
        This is the most dishonest, disreputable failure of a government in recent British history by a mile, and that’s saying something.
        And you’d vote them back in again would you…? For shame!

The very same one that saved the NHS with 24hours to go or is it the one where sleaze is an acceptable word until you get caught, the one where 16 year old’s leave school unable to read or write, or could it be the one that let’s out murderers on early release because the prisons are full of pensioners unable to pay council tax, or the very same one that supports over 400 deaths on its wards where no-one is accountable and people are dying of infectious diseases caught in filthy hospital wards, if not then it surely must be the one that has bankrupted this country with the biggest debt ever over it’s mishandling of the economy..We must be told…….

      There are two possible solutions here.

      (1) have many many fewer of these people, which will have the effect of “taking government further from the people”. This will be good. They will have to be aged 55+, have worked in an employment sector which was a net tax-contributor to HM Treasury (and NOT a ne tax-consumer) all their lives INCLUDING pre-Uni-”internships”, OR been self-employed for a minimum of TEN years. They will be paid allowable expenses (this is reasonable) but no actual “salary”. They will be housed in special barracks across the road from Westminster, which will be paid for so there’s no scammy-hammy, and they will be EXPECTED to vote in person on every Division – missing three deivisions in one year except for illness certified by one of their own constituents (not a “doctor”, these will not do) will be grounds ofr dismissal. there will be no “pairing” allowed.

      A corollary of this is that Socialist Rotten-and-Pokcket-Boroughs in the “inner cities” will be merged, will contain between 650,000 and 6,500,000 electors each, and will return ONE MP (for each “vibrant multicultural urban community”) – I’ll allow that, rather than “just ONE MP OVERALL” for the lot of them). Just like Tory rural ones have to do now.

      (2) The second solution would be having many, many MPs – thousands and thousands and thousands of the bastards. Every street will send one to Westminster. We’d need at least 700,000. No law can be passed without absolute unanimity. These will also be housed in barracks: the flats in Peckham, built by some earlier Stalinist ones would do nicely. Oh, and every division will have to be attended too. The MPs themselves cannot suggest laws. Laws will be proposed by Free-Holders.

        Poll: UK Conservative Party Lead At Four Points Over Labour

        The U.K. opposition Conservative party was four points ahead of the governing Labour Party in the latest YouGov poll commissioned by The Sun newspaper.

        The poll, published late Monday, showed the Conservatives picking up 36% of support, Labour with 32% and the smaller opposition Liberal Democrats with 20%.

        The Conservatives have seen a once double-digit lead slip in recent months ahead of a general election that must be held by June 3.

        Most commentators believe the Conservatives may need as much as a 10-percentage-point national lead at the election to be confident of commanding a parliamentary majority. YouGov is conducting almost daily polls through the election.

          The IMF is coming says:

          Will somebody please publicly state the difference between DEBT and DEFICIT

          Halving the deficit is not the same as halving the UK debt which is what Brown wants you to believe he will do

          The DEBT will continue to rise even when the deficit is cut

          It is driving me mad. Halfing the deficit is NOT ambitious

          Why doesn’t a Tory ask a presenter or a Labour MP to define Deficit and debt and see if they know

          • Halving the defecit is ambitious, though – that is just a measure of how fucked the economy is.

            Even assuming a 4% growth in GDP and in the tax take, the public spending cuts required to halve the defecit over a 4 year period amount to around 16-20% in real terms, and that would still leave us with a 50% increase in overall d*bt.

            And that’s without factoring in PFI/PPP off-balance commitments.

            We have been Enron’d, WorldCom’d and BCCI’d for 13 years, and the economic pain required to get out of this hole is far, far worse than anyone is prepared to admit to the electorate.

            So much for ‘Thiiiiings can only get betteeeeer…’

          • Bird with small brain says:

            On debt and deficit:
            In everyday terms, I assume it means that I have spent all the money in my current account, I have no savings and I have some regular income but have overspent on my credit card almost to its limit. There are some things I have to do with my income – such as buy food and pay fuel bills – and having done so what is left is not enough to pay the monthly interest on my credit card, let alone reduce the total amount owed on that card. So I am accelerating down the drain unless I can drastically reduce my outgoings on food, fuel etc. Or earn more!

            So my debt is the total amount on my credit card, and my deficit is the extent to which my monthly payment to the card company is less than the interest charged that month. Say I owed £4,000 plus £100 interest on my card and I could only afford to pay £60 each month, the deficit would be £40. So next month’s bill will be even bigger.

            I get that I can’t go on like this. The credit card company is threatening to put up the interest rate it charges me and may pull the plug completely unless I do something about it now. Some of my not so clever friends say, wait and see – pretend everything’s fine for now because you might earn more next year, My sensible friends say you’d be stupid to wait because the credit card company is going to hit you hard soon if you don’t, and anyway there’s lots you can do to reduce your outgoings that won’t affect your income next year.

            Is that it?

          • The IMF is coming says:

            Yes

            The deficit is the difference between the tax revenues recieved and the money spent in any given year.
            The debt is the accumalation of these deficits.

            So if you say the deficit will be halved in 4 years then it means it will be circa £85bn. However the deficit of the preceeding 3 years will be added to the national debt which will have gone up not down.

            What Brown wants people to believe is that the National Debt will be halved which is a completely different thing.

            Unfortunately most people are taken in by this.

            The Tories either don’t get it or are keeping quiet as they would than also have to commit themselves to how they would reduce the debt rather than the deficit which would scare off voters.

          • The IMF is coming says:

            The UK national debt is the total amount of money the British government owes to the private sector and other purchasers of UK gilts.

            From figures published February 18th 2010, UK public sector net debt was £848.5 billion. (or 59.9% of National GDP) – Source: Office National Statistics

    “…It is high time for me to put an end to your sitting in this place, which you have dishonoured by your contempt of all virtue, and defiled by your practice of every vice; ye are a factious crew, and enemies to all good government; ye are a pack of mercenary wretches, and would like Esau sell your country for a mess of pottage, and like Judas betray your God for a few pieces of money.

    “Is there a single virtue now remaining amongst you? Is there one vice you do not possess? Ye have no more religion than my horse; gold is your God; which of you have not barter’d your conscience for bribes? Is there a man amongst you that has the least care for the good of the Commonwealth?

    “Ye sordid prostitutes, have you not defil’d this sacred place, and turn’d the Lord’s temple into a den of thieves by your immoral principles and wicked practices? Ye are grown intolerably odious to the whole nation; you were deputed here by the people to get grievances redress’d; your country therefore calls upon me to cleanse the Augean Stable, by putting a final period to your iniquitous proceedings, and which by God’s help and the strength He has given me, I now come to do.

    “I command ye, therefore, upon the peril of your lives, to depart immediately out of this place! Take away that shining bauble there, and lock up the doors. You have sat here too long for the good you do. In the name of God, go!”

    Were ever truer words spoken.

    SCOOP !!! COURTESY OF MARTIN DAY

    EXCLUSIVE BUDGET LEAK……….YOU SAW IT HERE FIRST FOLKS

    Banks are to be put under an obligation to provide a free basic account to every UK citizen under new measures to be unveiled by Chancellor Alistair Darling in tomorrow’s Budget.

    Mr Darling is thought to believe that inability to access a bank account can prevent some of Britain’s poorest people from joining mainstream society by making it more difficult for them to receive pay cheques and pay bills.

    Not having an account can also make life more difficult for people who are watching every penny, as they are unable to buy cheaper goods online or benefit from the reduced rates offered by utility companies to customers paying by direct debit.

    And people with bank accounts are thought to find it easier to find and keep permanent employment.

    Recent figures from the Treasury’s Financial Inclusion Taskforce showed that 1.75 million adults have no access to basic bank accounts – more than half of them from the poorest fifth of society.

      I did think that those folk blaming Clinton for forcing US banks to make cash and mortgages available to the plankton of America and thus fuelling their property boom/bust were being a little harsh. The law of unintended consequences and all that.

      But now we see the Maximum Imbecile teeing the UK up for another boom and bust.

Of course, british banks are “cheap/free” because on the whole we put money in, and don’t go to the branches. Those who do go into the branches a lot get a subsidy from those of us who do not. I can’t be bothered working out, but a couple of minutes of counter staff’s time has to cost as much as the 20p small post offices apparently used to get for handing out giro money.

        So, banks are being forced to do give that cross-subsidy to the kind of queue one used to see in post offices on a friday morning.

        PS: The british bank’s problems had a hell of a lot to do with gambling on money markets and takeovers, more than a few british mortgage defaulters.

          And you don’t think the MI’s response to this is to bring in 2 million or so folk with no prior experience of borrowing several multiples of their annual wage just to start the debt-fuelled illusion with a new bunch of people?

          • Bush promotes national minority home ownership plan. says:

            Jet, July 1, 2002

            President Bush set a new goal of helping 5.5 million minority families buy their own homes before the end of the decade, hoping to end what he called a “home ownership gap.”

            “The difference in home ownership between Anglo America and Black and Hispanic America is too big,” Bush said at St. Paul AME Church in Atlanta.

            The president recently was in the city to promote his home ownership program, which calls for the building of 5.5 million new homes for minorities before 2012.

            Citing high down payments a major obstacle to home ownership for low-income families, Bush wants a $200 million expansion to the American Dream Down Payment Fund, first outlined in January and awaiting action by Congress. Grants from the fund would help about 40,000 families a year make down payments or pay closing costs on houses.

      It’s another fucking plot to get everyone onto The Database and stop us working for cash. If you have to have a bank account you cannot refuse to be paid into it directly. Then they’ll release your details to the HMRC who’ll simply deduct any tax they think might be due and tell you to fuck off or ask nicely if you want it back.

      Having screwed Sterling they think that they can do without all the hassle of actually making any actual money.

      Plus it will hand lots of lovely charges and penalty opportunities to the banks as these poor buggers are forced to use the dreadfull DD system when benefits get paid in late and DD set up to pay out do so, even though the funds have not arrived.

      For the poor and ‘financially challenged’ the DD system is the best bank money maker ever. This stupid initiative will make it worse.

      Plus, wasn’t it forcing the banks to lend to people who couldn’t afford to borrow a large part of what caused the US mortgage market to go haywire? And who will pay for these loss making accounts? Us, the other bloody customers, that’s who.

    But so far as one can tell looking at the evidence, the only person he misled was the TV company that for its own financial gain – a contract with the Sunday Times and Channel Four – was anyway misleading him about what it was doing”

    And they all get away with it!!!

    Unlike the hard working responsible citizens of this country these people have no sense of right and wrong. Therefore, how can they claim to represent us?

    I used to want my country back. But will let them keep it, provided they reduce my taxes to a conscionable level.

    Only Cromwell or The Queen can save us now.

Norman Tebbit has a humble brag:

“We Maastricht rebels were derided and abused for opposing the single currency by the wise, clever, Guardianista soft centre left establishment from whom we now hear so little on the matter.”



The last Quango in Paris says:

Mr Bryant and Mr Watson managing to make the whole hacking affair look like a farce – the more they moan the less I care about the whole subject! So partisan it beggars belief at all costs. They cannot rise above it ! If I was to call the PM a ‘liar’ I would want to be VERY sure.
