+ + + Libel Reform Blocked + + +
Details are a little sketchy tonight, but Guido understands that there has been a last minute ambush of Jack Straw’s libel reform bill in the Select Committee on Statutory Instruments.
The ambush was apparently galvanised by Tom Watson, with the support of Chris Mullins, Peter Kilfoyle, Jim Sheridan and Julie Kirkbride.
It seems inexplicable, the reform carries widespread support across all parties. Cynics note that some of last minute opponents had in the past benefitted from Conditional Fee Arrangements (CFAs). Others point to the closeness to former speaker Michael Martin, who opposes the reforms in the Lords. Others note that some of the oppents have themselves been beneficiaries of CFAs . Solicitors Carter-Ruck are lobbying intensely against to keep the no-win-no-fee system. Carter-Ruck won £50,000 for Tom Watson on that basis. Coincidentally.

LIBEL COSTS REFORM STALLED BY LABOUR MPS’ REVOLT
30 Mar 2010
A Statutory Instrument that would have reformed costs in English libel cases was stalled at committee stage tonight after several Labour MPs voted against their party whip to bock a reduction of lawyers’ success fees from a 100 per cent mark-up to 10 per cent. Chris Mullin, Peter Kilfoyle, Tom Watson and Jim Sheridan and Julie Kirkbride voted against the move. Watson and Kilfoyle have both taken advantage of Conditional Fee Agreements in past court cases. Conservative MPs abstained from the vote.
The proposal will now go to a full parliamentary vote.















“Carter-Ruck won £50,000 for Tom Watson on that basis. Coincidentally.”
I bet the fat fuck spent it all on pies.
Julie Kirkbride, Tom Watson, Carter-Ruck ?
Say no more.
We’re all suppressing free speech together.
What is former investigative journalist Chris Mullins doing in that role call of piggery ? He should be ashamed of himself.
Follow the money, Guido

More to follow
Labour MPs voted against their party whip to bock a reduction of lawyers’ success fees from a 100 per cent mark-up to 10 per cent. Chris Mullin, Peter Kilfoyle, Tom Watson and Jim Sheridan…
BOCK?
Is that a typo for BLOCK, or for BACK? The missing letter flips the meaning.
Conservative MPs abstained from the vote.
Exactly – forget the finger pointing at the useless, self-serving present government and explain why the would-be ‘new brooms’ failed to strut their stuff.
If you are looking to explain why this prostrate, crooked corpse of a government is still not in its grave – here is a hint at the explanation.
That’s why, as a member of the Conservative Party, I will be voting UKIP at the election.
Me and lots of others.
Cameron’s corrupt socialist scum-sucking vermin are.. socialist scum-sucking vermin.
I want to vote Tory, but the current parliamentary troughers and the treasonous scum that pass for the Tory leadership have placed my cross firmly in the UKIP box.
UKIP are a marginal party for over the hill, bulging eyed, red faced men who secretly fear the fading of their cardboard, sad way of looking at the world. A joke.
Gordon is a fan if it’s any consolation.
Interesting to see who was involved:
Watson – Labour MP, tractor-tyred ‘man of the people’ who is strangely reluctant to be completely honest and open
Kilfoyle – Labour MP, tractor-tyred ‘man of the people’ who is strangely reluctant to be honest and open. Oh, his website is offline. Surprised?
Sheridan – Labour MP, tractor-tyred ‘man of the people’ who voted against MPs salaries being capped
Mullin – Labour MP, balding ‘man of the people’ who puts his accountancy costs on expenses and doesn’t care as he is retiring with a nice wedge of cash
Kirkbride – Con MP (emphasis on the con), keeps it all in the family. Nice.

Usual suspects. Not one with a crimnal record, yet they have ALL done more to get on that record than most criminals have.
Police accused of trespass after ‘burgling’ 50 homes… to show owners how insecure they are
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1261742/Exeter-Police-accused-trespass-burgling-50-homes.html
It’s a blatant excuse for our
police forceCommunist government’s uniformed militiapolice “service” to snoop around looking for thought-crimes. Or stuff to steal.We all now know what criminals have known for decades; The police in England are scum.
What’s ‘Dave’ going to do about it? Oh.. silence..
Once asked a copper if he had a pen so I could write down his number. The fecker had storm trooped his way into my house uninvited searching for loud music. He told me he was going to stick his pen in my eye. Nice bloke? Not too bright i’d say.
Well, lets look at it this way. Iraq had a police force full of tradition, politics and bully boys much like our own. So we dismantled it and started again. Do you think Dave can dismantle our police and start again?
If you want to be informed rather than buying an orchestrated rant watch the actual debate. http://www.parliamentlive.tv/Main/Player.aspx?meetingId=6276 Pretty interesting if you are into that sort of thing (paint drying watching exercise if you are not). More about access to justice for someone with limited means (most of us?) – on the occasion some murdochian organisation decides to call you a paedo with no justification or invades your private life to sell a few more rags – than trampling on free speech.
Attacking the person rather than the arguments they make is cheap…
Watson’s a Wanker.

The first halal online sex shop for married Muslim couples which complies with Sharia has been launched in Holland (where else)
The site El Asira which avoids any porno nonsense appears to approach the subject of Sex for married couples in a respectful manner and judging by the number of hits it is getting seems already to be hugely popular. For those married Muslims curious about Halal sex the website is currently down presumably because the Server can’t cope with the demand.
Why didn’t I think of that? Perhaps there’s some scope in the nunnery market.
I’d like to see their canes, whips, stones etc.
twatson’s only a friend of anything so long as it brings him a benefit – what benefit does the israeli government bring him I wonder?
It ain’t kosher that’s for sure.
oooooo por de lub oof Allah WHY?
What the hell is a halal butt plug, and how is it different from a non halal one?
Yeah, and what about pork swords and that? How do they cope?
Free felafels for life?

Got to be something in it for the fat troughing bastard.
Was listening earlier to Joan Bakewell (Pinter’s ex-squeeze) on BBC R3 interviewing a ‘sharia banker’ for an hour. She bravely – for the Beeb! – brought up the subject of Islamic terrorism and the London bombings. He smoothly explained that it was all the violence was down to a ‘tiny minority of extremists’, and that the Koran speaks out against all forms of violence….Yeah right.
She’s being doing these religious progs for decades so she must have read the Koran by now. WTF didn’t she say to him, “That’s funny, my copy of the Koran tells muslims it’s ok to kill and rape and enslave non-muslims on just about every page, you lying piece of shit!”
Taquiya (lying to non-muslims for advantage) – it’s what the BBC is for!
Ah, the saintly Bakewell – ‘the thinking man’s crumpet’ as she used to be styled back in the 70s.
Nice of you to inform us of the Islamic position on lying to non-believers – here, for comparison, is a link to an article discussing a book called ‘The Kings Torah’ which discusses rabbinical teachings relating to the treatment of those not of the Chosen.
Funnily enough, it turns out that both ‘faiths’ have similar attitudes to outsiders.
Me? I despise them all.
Taquiyya mostly works on those to dhimmi to get it
What a devious and corrupt world we live in.
But strangely fun… After many, many years of in your face crusadery the impregnable fortress Crac du Chavalier fell to a Muslim bloke with a bit of paper saying do one.

I am just about to get banned by the arch tory Guido Fawkes.
Fawkes never gave a damn about the expenses scandal, he only used it as cover to act as a propagandist for the tories.
now the general election is so close Guido is sweating like a rapist and the reader should expect no impariality from this place from here-on-in.
Fawkes is a tory fifth columnist.

still going to be a Labour win Guido and when that happens I will return to gloat.

Well you aint the real Tat. And the truth is, if that happened, and it won’t, none of us would be on here to support you so the website would be defunct.
That collapse of support is what is happening to labour at the moment but they are in denial.

No referendum on Lisbon (just like Labour).
Standing ovation for Bliar on his resignation (ughh…)

All Tory supporters are living in dream land. They ain’t conservative any more. They’re a part of the grand NWO plan (which will fail).
Labour, Tory or civil war? Labour are guarenteed 100% to fuck the country. Tory can’t be worse, will be an improvement. Anarchy? Appealing but ultimtely counterproductive.
You have a little follower Nell. How sweet.
But you can always put on your strap on and give me a quick bully-ramming nell.
The only remedy for followers like twatson, kevan or whelan, the sort of political troughing vermin that are on here tonight is rat poison , preferably one that leads to a long slow death.

ALL HAIL THE KING
John ‘Banjoes’ Prescott on Newsnight demonstrates his understanding of the situation
“I am delighted that Tony is back with Gordon Brown. Together they created the economic prosperity and social justice”
Prescott actually said om Newsnight that Brown/Blair brought economic prosperity to the UK. What fucking planet does this guy live on? This whole fucking NuLabour experiment is conplere clusterfuck. In different times they would have been strung up and maybe just maybe people will see through their arrogance and send them into political oblivion. For that is what they deserve. These NuLabour so called do gooders make me so angry. Hypocritical sanctimonious bastards.
“Brown/Blair brought economic prosperity to the UK”
That’ll be like how Access/Visa brought economic prosperity to the products of the socialist education system.
Economic properity for him and other sleaze ridden members.
It all sucks

Actually too many voters are mugs and drones.
I’ve always voted Labour and I’m not going to change now just because they’ve ruined the country. Gordon says he’s doing the right thing – it’s what people want.
This is a terrible development. It is so undemocratic. Can these people be targeted, to vote them out of office: Tom Watson, Chris Mullins, Peter Kilfoyle, Jim Sheridan and Julie Kirkbride.

Tom Watson should only be allowed in the chamber if he wins two seats.
He should only be allowed in the chamber if it’s a gas chanber.
Anyone who thinks they’ll abolish or even amend CFA’s with their 100% uplift on fees is kidding themselves.
The politicians recent rants about the freedom of speech being attacked by the libel lawyers is just spin. They don’t want nor ever will they alter the status quo because they know they’ll want their services to quell debate on their robbery of the public purse
Have you seen the BBCs report on Peter Robinson? After Irisgate Shaun Woodward declared Peter completely exonerated by an inquiry he had set up himself working to his own (unpublished) terms of reference.
Now the BBC allege that a developer sold Robinson a ransom strip of land on a site beside his home for a £5.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/northern_ireland/8595547.stm
Robbo and wife then allegedly sold it on to another developer for £5 allowing them to unlock a residential development from which he stood to make megabucks. Strangely too, the BBC seem to allege that all these deals failed to be recorded in the register of member’s interest’s etc, The BBC also allege that interests weren’t declared in the local council when planning decisions were going through and estimate the true value of the £5 strip of land at £75k to £200k.
Even stranger the developer who sold it to the Robinsons was the late Fred Frazer – whom you may recall loaned the blessed Iris £25k to help fit out her lover’s cafe then wrote off the loan as a gift …..as you do when a local MP nips in for what in Ireland has become known as a ‘dig out’.
Now this is a real missed opportunity. Given Mr Robinson’s evident Financial acumen he’s wasted in lil old Northern Ireland. At the very least surely he should be a Treasury Minister where his financial skills could solve the national debt crisis in a few days.
And just why is Labour so supportive of and getting so close to the Democratic Unionist Party. It couldn’t be anything to do with the possibility of a hung parliament and their past support for Labour on 42 day detention?Anyway I am sure that their new friends in the DUP will go down very well with traditional Labour supporters who will just love:
the campaign against the popes visit or as they so delicately put it ‘NO POPE HERE’

A man walks into a bar and takes a look around, he walks up to the barman and says “I can have sex with any woman i want to in here” the barman says “Really? how come” and the man replies “because i’m a rapist”
I think I must be disturbed as well….I laughed.
A woman sits up in an hospital. a man walks up and talks to her. “well, after taking a look at your vagina, I have some bad news for you.” The girl says “really?” The guy smiles and says, “I’m not a gyneocologist”
Bleed the Freaks! (sorry just that mood tonight).
Do the reforms cover imaginary libel writs? If so, shouldn’t you declare an interest?
“Carter-Ruck won £50,000 for Tom Watson on that basis. Coincidentally.”
A libel solicitor leaving his client up on the deal? Whatever next?
I suppose you get what you pay for.
“I suppose you get what you pay for.”
You don’t know how true that is Jimmy.
anyone seen this FFS !!!!!! OUTRAGEOUS. I tell you they will have to drag the man out by the feet and prise his fingers from the banisters to do it.
Gordon Brown could lose and still be Prime Minister
Gordon Brown could continue as Prime Minister for weeks even if he loses the election, under Whitehall proposals to prevent a run on the pound in the event of a hung parliament.
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/election-2010/7539652/Gordon-Brown-could-lose-and-still-be-Prime-Minister.html
Officials under the direction of Sir Gus O’Donnell
Perhaps Brown should refuse to call an election if there is a grave danger of upsetting the financial markets and causing a disastrous run on the pound?
The country can not afford the chaos that a probable hung parliament would cause so why have an election?
Brwon should just carry on as PM until the economy is back to normal again.
Well that should suit him OK as it will take a generation to put this economy right.
Normal again?? Do fuck off, it’s NEVER going back to normal, shithead, ‘cos ‘normal’ got us into this mess. You just don’t get it, do you Tim?
The Universe will die before that happens if he stays
under the direction of Kim Jong Brown more like
Instructions on how to form a Government in a hung Parliament with the pound in free fall, a gilt strike, a credit downgrade, and Brown’s negotiating skills.
Let us hope it does not happen.
And a national strike with over a million people sponteneusly picketing Whitehall!!!!
There is no way that Brown should be allowed to stay in power if he loses the vote!
And I’ll just bet that the BBC would merely call such a situation ‘a quirk of our democracy’.
Any law, statute or rule created by such a losing prime minister would NOT have the force of law as it would not be enacted by the government with the consent of the Governed!
A guy gets home late one night and his wife says: “Where have you been?”
“I was out getting a tattoo.”
“A tattoo? What kind of tattoo did you get?”
“I got a hundred dollar bill on my penis.”
“What the hell were you thinking? Why did you get a hundred dollar bill
on your penis?”
“Well, number one, I like to watch my money grow. number two, once in a
while, I like to play with my money. And lastly, instead of you going
out shopping, you can stay right here at home and blow a hundred bucks

Congratulations ! You win the coveted “Moron Of The Week” award, won in previous weeks by – you ! Dating right back to the week you first opened your mouth.
The country cannot afford Gordon Brown. He must go. Anyone would be better – even you, deranged as you are.
This sounds extremely sinister. Moves are afoot to allow Gordon Brown to remain as prime minister even if he loses the next election:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/election-2010/7539652/Gordon-Brown-could-lose-and-still-be-Prime-Minister.html
Brown should cancel the election until the economy is on firm ground again. All parties should agree with this if they truly have the interests of Britain at heart.
Are you for real, or just a sick satirist?
The Labour Party will never get the economy on firm ground again – to do so would go against their basic principles of egalitarianism, meddling and control-freakery.
If Brown even thinks of cancelling the election there will be civil war.
Jesus Christ on a bike. Are you insane? Don’t give this shower any chance whatsoever to erode our freedoms any longer.
You’ll have the Generals in Downing Street if this happens and quite bloody right too. The Civil Service may well be our best option if this scenario arises.
Are you a Labour Troll?
No – it’s standard practice to allow the sitting PM to attempt to form a government if there is no majority party.
The pound will go south, our credit rating likewise, but the gurning mentalist will still be allowed to try to persuade enough fools to join him to get a working majority.
Remember the 70s? We had the same then, with the Lib-Lab pact in 77. Closely followed by the IMF and widespread strikes and disruption.
paragnostic
The crucial difference with this plan is that Brown will be allowed to remain as prime minister “for as long as he wants” even if the Tories are the largest party after the election.
This is getting increasingly Stalinist. Brown is obviously conspiring, possibly with senior civil servants, to remain in power even if he loses the election.
Cancel the election for a few more months. We cannot risk a run on the pound that a hung parliament would bring.
Hang on BenM…Tim these names are the same as the ones who bait everyone over on PB.
Don’t feed the trolls folks!
The first past the post system may be a less than perfect system, but it is a he’ll of a lot better than the second past the post system.
If brown loses the election and tries to remain in power, there will be civil war!!!
The crucial difference with this plan is that Brown will be allowed to remain as prime minister “for as long as he wants”
Or until there is a vote of no confidence.
I read the article, and got precisely the opposite sense to that which you seem to have.
The main change to current practise is that the Civil Service will be able to assist opposition parties with information while they are negotiating on policies during the formation of a coalition – this would be a good thing, as it would enable the smaller parties to see exactly how fucked the public finances are and how urgent it is to agree sensible policies with any minority Conservative administration.
Otherwise, the situation is unchanged – the sitting PM has a couple of weeks to try to arrange a coalition, then if he does not, the main opposition gets a go at the same.
It’s just more clear now what the position of the CS in the scheme of things would be, and that’s not necessarily a bad thing.
As it says in large pink letters on the cover of the H2G2 – ‘Don’t Panic!’.
Perhaps Gordon Brown should refuse to call an election if there is a grave danger of upsetting the financial markets and causing a disastrous run on the pound?. The country can not afford the chaos that a probable hung parliament would cause so why have an election? He should just carry on as PM until the economy is back to normal again

Great scrap between Prescot, Pickles and Hune.
They started with a graphic of Blair coming out of a coffin calling him the undead.
Esler was out of his depth, the whole thing turned into a 4-way shouting match. I was awarding myself bonus points everytime “Ashcroft” got shouted Prescott.
shouted *by* Prescott.
For Every Ashcroft shouted out by fatty, the name “TRACEY” or “TEMPLE” should have been shouted back at him. It does no harm to point out sleazy hypocrites when you see or hear one.
btw have you read his wiki entry, what a clusterfuck of incompetence and failure.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Prescott#Criticism_and_controversies
How the hell did Prescott get from a ships lacky into politics and then on to Deputy Prime Minister. The man is dinosaur with nothing to say other than Ashcroft. What did he add to the debate – nothing. Obviously NuLabour focus groups have highlighted the Ashcroft affair. Unfortunately the talking points memo of last week was not copied to poor old 2 jags with his mock tudor beams. What a complete low life trougher.
Me as deputy slime minister

And to cap it all, he was once Deputy PM. Just one step away from the nuke button
Mr Pies: “He’s the man that makes the difference”
Mr Pickles: “The betrayal of the British People”
Summary: The difference he’s made is to betray the British People
(Good and Stalwart attack by Pickles – Keep up the good work!)
Who ate all the Pies ?

you fat bastard, you fat bastard
You ate all the Pies
Ashcroft might very well be correct
“It is worth reminding ourselves of something. This is what friends of the Conservative party have got for five years of “detoxifying” insults, sustained political cowardice and a leadership-led abandonment of every issue of grassroots importance. This is all that has been achieved by those Tory backbenchers who have silently gone along with the Cameronians only because they thought it would finally gain them power.
“Cameron and his colleagues have spent the last five years assiduously antagonising everyone who should be well disposed towards them and attempting to woo those who would never like them. They have been chasing unimportant and ungettable endorsements from Martin Day while alienating their sympathisers. I recently spent an unhappy evening with a senior Tory who dismissed one potentially friendly institution after another. The City’s criticisms of Osborne? “Who cares about the City?” he asked. The Telegraph’s criticisms of Cameron? “I don’t bother with the Telegraph any more.” And so on.
“If the Cameron clique had spent more time listening to their friends they might be preparing for power. As it is, they deserve to lose.”
Gordon Brown should delay the election to avoid the risk of a run on the pound. He could call one when the economy has fully recovered in a year or so’s time.

If the Tories really were patriotic they would agree with that suggestion but they are too busy talking down the economy and trying to cause a sterling crisis to care.
To get us through this crisis we need a government of national unity with Gordon Brown remaining as prime minister to give us the stability we need and to assure the financial markets and with Vince Cable as chancellor bringing his wisdom and experience to the situation.
If the Tories refuse to coperate for the good of the country then everyone will realise they are only out for themselves.
The Tories are trying to talk down the economy. We need Brown and Vince Cable in charge of a govt of national unity to get us through the crisis.
Cameron and Osborne are the enemy within. We can’t afford the risk of them taking over the country.
Of course we do.
gordon can then keep our troops in Afghanistan without helicopters, ridgebacks, body armour, IED protection.
At home he can create more non jobs for real nappy officers, eat more fruits administrators, pram wheel counters (remember them?), officers for suffolk jugglers, ( yes for real!), diversity officers, equality officers, climate change officers, eat more veg officers, elf&safety don’t clear your path’s in snow officers……
Yep we really need gutlessgordon in power for another five years …………………
What’s occurring here? A mass attack on Guido’s blog by Labour stalwarts. Getting worried boys?
Tone’s appearance doesn’t seem to have wow’d anyone very much – apart from the Jaffa tinged hue of his splendid tan – must be the rays emitted from his wallet when it flashes open.
Tony has just been contact by Coppertone and ask to be their face for 2010 – 2011 fee to be £250,000 together with royalties of course.
Phil,
No. YOu are trying to deny democracy you evil lefty.
Cameron can then keep our troops in the Afghanistan and I don’t care because I’m a Warmonger who loves splashing about in the blood of dead troops to exploit their slaughter.
Yep we really need the Heir to Bliar in power to do as his master did.
………………..
These “elections” are evidently dangerous things. That’s probably why Gordon tends to avoid them. It’s for the stability of the economy and is the right thing to do.
It’s only the Tories who want an election. The vast majority of people just want stability and we won’t get that with a hung parliament.
It’s up to me if we have an election or not and I haven’t made up my mind whether to have one or not yet, but if we do have one and I lose then I will be staying on as prime minister because it’s the right thing to do.
we cannot have elections when there
is an air of uncertainty…will not
pander to populism.
Its the right thing to do.
Lsbour really are desperate, their trolls have finally lost it.
we know who’s lost it yet again after another drugs binge
that would be you

“Delay the election to avoid a run on the pound?”
I cannot think of any act better calculated to cause an instant economic catastrophe.
It would be Lehmans going bust on a national scale.
Hung parliament, bollocks. Brown staying, bollocks. All spin shit. The markets are not worried about a hung parliament – they are worried about any influence that Brown may have on the economy. All this is utter spin drivel by a bunch of losers. They just need to be ignored. Tossers.
I’m not being paid to say this
Off topic but the FSA have unleashed the final RDR paper.
Financial advice for the great unwashed is officially a thing of the past.
Shouldn’t they have declared their interest?
I have decided to make myself Prime Minister For Life.
Because it’s the right thing to do.
It’s no laughing matter anymore.
After tangoedtone’s performance today I think gutlessgordon may be moving towards a c++++aucescu moment!
I didn’t see it. Was he in full on, looking into the middle distance, ‘hand of history is on our shoulders’ mode?
The fact that Brown has brought the lying, warmongering shyster back to strengthen their election campaign speaks volumes
Anyone else notice Blair’s peculiar accent at the beginning of his speech? Almost Middle Eastern American. Very strange.
Pretty soon I will be the only one with a vote.
How much does Gavin Essler get from the BBC poll tax?
The Beeboid Tax in support of this Parliament of Whores!!!
How many £Millions is it in Total each year?!!
And how unwisely is most of it frittered away as the Beeb slavishly supports this failed labour government?
Time to bring it all to an end hopefully on May 6 or June 3 if gordon really can’t bring himself to be a man and call a proper election until the last moment!
The witch Wark was at Edinburgh University while Brown was the Rector.I have long suspected a monstous and intimate relationship between the two.
Monstrous.
Mr Cameron stressed that he supported the BBC
He said: “The BBC is an important national institution. I want to see it prosper and succeed and be a fantastic cultural asset.”
He added that he was a “supporter of the licence fee”
What a bunch of lying, pathetic, bullying, stupid, troughing twats.
cause a run on the pound?>
my dear- kon- stit- yew -wents………..
i have already cut the pound from $2,10 to $1.48 and the Euro from around Eu 1.45 down to 1.07……….
therefore making lots of money……for all those poor countries outside the UK!
Keep up, Guido. It’s nothing to do with the Select Committee on Statutory Instruments.
A separate delegated legislation committee has debated the order and voted against the motion “That the Committee has considered the instrument”. This is no big deal and doesn’t affect the procedure for passing the order in the Commons.
The motion to approve the order would have had to be formally approved by the House by a vote, whatever the outcome of the vote in committee. That vote is still scheduled to take place next Tuesday: if there’s an objection to the motion then, the vote will take place on Wednesday.
o/t….just had the misfortune to see a clip of the ultra hoon herself,miranda blair,on the tv….
still talking bollocks……..gordon acted decisively??????
talk about trying to re-write history.they really do take us for fools……..so tony doesnt remember the queues of people outside of NORTHERN ROCK???
DOESNT remember gordon brown hob nobbing with the toffs that he hates at a cocktail party in the city (how ironic for a commie)and convinced victor blank (another toff friend) to totally fuck up lloyds bank by taking over hbos?
northern rock?
halifax,bank of scotland?
bradford + bingley?
royal bk of scotland?
none of this was seen by the FSA…
and whos’ baby was that?
yep…….gurning gordon …….
still all it cost was £billions and thousands of jobs……
did you see the way Blairs eye darted around the room?
like a lizard……….
did you see the way Blairs eye darted around the room?
He knew he was lying, and he knew that everybody knew that he was lying.
He has lied so much for so long, you’d think he would be comfortable doing it now.
I may have been a tad worried about http://www.arrestblair.org/
There’s still ten grand in the kitty so one of you bastards might try to claim your share.
Am I ‘bovvered’ ??? Look at the face. Bovvered ????
shame Cameron didn’t know he was lying when most of the public did and call me Dave supported the Iraq catastrophe
I find it very hard to believe that nobody has a photo of Bercows wifes twa t
Its grainy but will a Polaroid do?
Is this it?

The only remedy for followers like twatson, kevan or whelan, the sort of political troughing vermin that are on here tonight is rat poison , preferably one that leads to a long slow death.
O/T. Campbell will be shedding a tear or two now his hero princess Tony is back in town. He is an honourable man. The Labour Asylum is now officially opened.
The BBC are soliciting contributions to pay for billboards opposing BBC cuts to be placed outside their various offices.

Moley has already replied.
And no-one tengentially linked to the Conservative Party by ever being a member or a councillor has ever been convicted of the same type of crimes have they ?
Pitifully desperate stuff.
So that makes it OK then?
Moron.
The cause of all the countries with Lord Ashcroft.
All the countries problems are caused by Lord Ashcroft. Apologies for previous comments, too many spliffs.
One can never have too many.
watched a police programme tonight
they raided an asian curry house in manchester
looking for stolen passports they turned the place upside down finding nothing
i thought well you could hide a couple of passports anywhere
then they went into the suspended ceiling they found 740 brand new blank shrink wrapped british passports
for fucks sake these had come straight from the passport office
just proving that anyone who wants to get in this country can for a couple of grand
25years ago my mates wife worked at HMSO where they printed the pages of our passports
i remember him telling me that if one page was missing at the end of the day
that everybody had to stay and search the factory untill it turned up
nobody could leave untill it was found
and found it would be !
the factory also had police on the gates 24/7 as well
how fucking times have changed !
He was bullshitting you. This is a complete myth.
Brown absolutley fucking hated (tangoBlair) now blair is sucking his cock !
WHY ? there must be money involved
ie blairs non dom tax status or public funds being diverted to blair
he’s not in this for love
the bastards up to something !
Reform and British politics are very uneasy bedfellows. The vermin fight tooth and nail to ensure that priviledge and cronyism remains.
totally agree
I am very, very rich.
And I owe it all to Noo_Lie_Bore.
You could be rich too if you become one of the elite in Noo_Lie_Bore.
For I founded the ‘Party of the Poor’ – (Yeah – right!) – on the founding principles of
mendacity
PC bullshit
lies
empty gestures
cultivation of trash celebs
‘Cool’ Britannia
a belief that you can fool all the people most of the time
funny money
and so on.
And Gorgon carries on my work.
So Trust me – I’m a straight kinda guy.

contingency plans being drawn up if hung parliament
all for the needs of the economy/ city
what about the needs of the people?
vote tory and get Brown out
The thought of Gordoom “hanging on” fills us all with dread. Can not be allowed at any cost. Meltdown would immediately follow…
Smoke and mirrors and the stench of rats.
The whole point of the Lib/Lab/Con trick was to bring the country to a state of collapse.
Today Brown will pontificate, finally, about immigration.
Watch the Tories and the Liberals close ranks with him.

A similar take.

Whatever next!
Lots of speculation in the papers that McDoom is trying to tinker with the constitution to hang on as PM.
Only one safe way to kick the Hunt out for good. Vote against Labour in your constituency.
and replace him with Blair 2.0 ?
fuck that
If he is Blair 2 how come he does not get any support from the beeb or loony left media
ask Hutton and the former BBC D.G.
There needs to be clear majority in the next Parliament for either Labour or preferably Conservative. The risks for the UK of having a “Hung Parliament” are very dire and will have MAJOR economic consequences indeed requiring immediate interest rate rises and massive massive spending cuts resulting in a reduction in front-line services and rise in unemployment
Nobody should be in any doubt that in the event of the UK having a “Hung parliament” on 7 May(if the election is 6 May)the exchanges and markets will go into freefall………
Given how reliant everyone was on Aunty Beeb in 1945 is it any wonder Churchill was undermined by Labour, even then?…
It gets worse.
The Government is now proposing that liabilities arising from an award for libel or slander will not be released on discharge from bankruptcy.
In plain language, this means that if you are the victim of a libel action and get a massive award made against you which so far exceeds your assets or ability to pay it that you have to go bankrupt, even after all your estate is taken from you and divvied up among your creditors, you will still never be free from the libel award and the buggers will be able to pursue you and take successive shirts off your back to the end of your days.
This appalling proposal is buried in an innocuous and technical sounding document called “Proposals for amendment to Insolvency Act 1986 and Companies Director Act 1986″ issued by the Insolvency Service (which still calls itself “A BERR Service” – good to see they’re using up all their old stationery) on 18 March.
B-liar is desperate to hang on to his old contacts
it’s a nice little earner
and remember he was “mentioned in dispatches “
