Just in via email from Liam Byrne:
“My letter was a joke, from one Chief Secretary to another. I do hope David Laws’ sense of humour wasn’t another casualty of the coalition deal.”
The problem is that many will think “In Humour Veritas”…

Andrew Pierce on Ed Balls…
“Porky Shadow Chancellor Ed Balls sweet-talked guests at a fund-raising dinner by saying if he wasn’t a politician, he would be a chef. That’s not surprising, since he was accused of cooking the Treasury books when he was Gordon Brown’s boot boy.”
is there anyone in the world that Tony hasnt screwed in some way?
so there is money left? fabulous.
Perhaps he can tell us where.
fuck off and bring me a coffee
Ok that’ll be £2.50. In advance!
Patronising, bald-headed c**t.
Many a true word said in jest.
I hope Laws has the letter ostentatiously framed and put in a prominent place in his office
What a follicaly challenged pratt. I hope he is opposition for the next twenty years. Thats how long it will take to pay of our debts.
So he thinks the biggest deficit in the EU and 15% of EU total debt is just a joke?
I’m so glad he’s in opposition!
The party is over, now the hangover payments….
No c**t – it’s in Vino veritas. You must have been pissed to write it.
Did you really think that note could possibly be funny under ANY circumstances.
The problem is that it is said… “Many a True Word is Spoken in Jest!”
This time Liam Bynre’s was telling the truth…… were ‘a fooked…. don’t panic Captain Osbourne… don’t panic…..
Afraid Baldemort is being truthful for the first time in his life. I’m Starting to feel a lttle sorry for ZanuLiebour supporters. No Really. The Marx brothers are planning to take charge. For Eddie and Dave read Groucho and Harpo, or Karl if you wish. Only competition is Adolf Balls! Now it’s OK to get yourself a Polish builder for your new extension, or a Polish plumber when the central heating packs in, but porentially running the country.
Do not feel sorry for LieBore. Remember their crimes!
Irony dear boy, irony.
In which case I’m feeling sorry for irony.
If Polish people, or any other immigrant could turn up and apply for an MP’s job at below the current rate, and be given it on that basis alone we would have legislated against immigration years ago. Labour – other peoples jobs for foreigners.
Stanislav the plumber for PM.
Up against the wall, motherfuckers.
His presence is sadly missed.
Two sons of Polish immigrants are applying to be leader of labour.
ugly couple of fuckers too
I’ve got a tap that needs mending.
Millipede 1 or 2 come on over – you rats.
He will tell what he did with the treasure when put through a little rendition.
Baldemort might think it’s a joke – Those of us who are going to have to pay for their marxist experiment don’t!
The joke’s on him.If he had eyes on the leadership,he’s just blown it.
Sadly it is not a joke, it is true.
OT
Your chance to have multicultural fun and celebrate our “diversity”, thanks to New Labour!!
http://www.crimestoppers-uk.org/wanted/search/12/1/drug-crime/87/beginning/all/5/
One of them looks hideously white to me.
I spotted two. Do I win a prize?
Here’s a better list, it’s Scotland Yard’s 12 most wanted, unfortunately someone has stolen two, because there are only 10. Look at how we’ve been culturally enriched.
http://www.met.police.uk/wanted/
12 in base 8 = 10
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, CSE maths! Never leaves me.
Thoise two may be white, but they are not British.
nor thoise two f*cking foreigners can spell
Which one? The one named “Arian MUCAJ” or the one named “Nadim HAKIM”?
That’s the guest list to Gordo’s leaving do…
THIS ISNT WHAT LIAM BYRNE SAID TO THE INHABITANTS OF KASHMIR IN THE LEAD UP TO THE ELECTION WHEN HE WAS WOOING THE COMMUNITY LEADERS THERE WITH MILLIONS OF POUNDS. IF YOU WANT TO KNOW HOW HE INCREASED HIS MAJORITY LOOK NO FURTHER.
Indeed – many a truth is told in jest.
We should have a few public enquiries – and maybe a trial or two – that look into financial negligence. That would test Baldemorts’s sense of humour……
Tha’s nae tha oonly joke. Wait teil yon cameroon lairks in the bog!
Best stick to English, Bill.
Ha bloody ha!
I fear it is the epitaph that will appear on the gravestone of New Labour and will be used evermore against the Labour Party. Mr Byrne would not have been remembered for his contribution to government at the Treasury but he will now have a place in history. Sad.
Oh my aching sides.
Trust NuLiebour to suggest that bankrupting the country is somehow amusing.
A joke? No that was the Labour government’s over spending and Quango coalition of get rich on the tax payer, alliance! Liam Byrne is a complete and utter idiot if he finds that amusing!
Looks like the antisemites have started to come out of the woodwork re labourleadership.
Guido, please remove comments from English john
fuck off the j’ews are not a race it is an invented identity.
I seem to recall, quite accurately, as it happens, that no sooner had Michael Howard become leader of the Conservative Party, Labour-supporting papers suddenly started banging on about him being a Jewish immigrant.
And there was the “pigs might fly” labour poster.
He was born in Gorseinon, Swansea. I suppose it might be argued that he immigrated into England from Wales, as did Presclott.
These hand over notes have been quite common over the years.
However past politicians with wit, intelligence and humour have written much better notes rather than a limp attempt that will come back to haunt him and his party
Guido reports: Just in via email from Liam Byrne:
“My letter was a joke, from one Chief Secretary to another. I do hope David Laws’ sense of humour wasn’t another casualty of the coalition deal.”
No Liam we are all laughing our socks off, just as I have found out this morning that Lord Treason has not only killed off the UK World Cup bid for the next 100 years, but at one time he was a fully paid up member of the Communist Party! Perhaps Soho Square will now remove the frosted glass at their flash Soho Square Offices.. we need to see how many red flags are flying ..all together now …”The in the Red Flag is….
You would have thought MI5 would have spotted him.
I mean, the names a bit of a giveaway isn’t it?
Alot of us knew this more than fifteen years ago and told you all in 1997. That voting for Labour was voting for communists.
More than half of the front bench where former commie party members. The information was freely avaliable.
Indeed it was. Shame no fucker wanted to touch the fact with a bargepole.
UK world cup bid? When was that then? I thought it was an England world cup bid – designed, as are the London Olympics, to shove the obsession with finding a post-colonial role for the failed state that is the UK down the throats of the people of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, while making us pay for it.
Liam Byrne for leader of the Labour party- and I’m not joking!
I’m not joking either – I’ve backed him at c180 on Betfair.
But he is a sick joke, like his party. Imagine the mindset which can leave a message like that, and think it amusing, given the massive debt in which these hoons have left us.
The same mentality which found the proposed japes for the Pope’s visit funny, I suppose – ie infantile
Vote banana, you know it makes sense…
didn’t Liam Byrne write the hugely hilarious “10 point guide to a new MP” of something similar a few days ago?
No that was one of the other top hoons, Dennis McShane
That one thinks jokes about ripping off the taxpayer are funny
I remember him giggling with glee when being interviewed about the 10p tax fiasco. (I think it was on “Daily Politics”).
Let’s face it, he’s a bundle of fun.
Lets have the final ACT.
The OLD BAILEY TRIAL.
THE SENTENCE.
THE LINE UP.
THE PULLING OF THE TRIGGER.
NEW LABOUR GONE FOR EVER.
Squeeze the trigger. You don’t want to miss.
I am still trying to precisely locate the humour in this. Son of Himmler (as Byrne should be known) is responsible, in part for allowing our nation’s finances to be destoyed. If it didn’t appear too frivolous I would almost go as far as to say that the entire Labour government should be indicted for Treason.
To laugh and joke about a matter such as this clearly demonstrates the contempt with which Labour regarded this nation.
Yes, he does remind me of Heinrich Himmler. He is a nasty spud indeed. He personifies everything I detest about smarmy, ambitious, left-leaning arseholes who live like feudal lords whilst espousing socialism to the rest of us.
OK, ELF. You’ve Ed Bollox and Leeeamm Byrne up against the wall. There’s one round in your revolver. Which turd bites the bullet?
Neither – I’d save the bullet for myself just in case either of these biffers ever got into another position of power.
“Espousing” means “getting married to”. I imagine you mean “spouting”.
Ed’s special handwriting lessons had a very quick payback.
We left a surplus after Gordon saved the world. This talk of a huge deficit is just Tory spin from the Murdoch press.
“I do hope David Laws’ sense of humour wasn’t another casualty of the coalition deal”
If David Laws has sense of humour… doesn’t seem the type to me.
And it’s pretty clear that most of the contributors here can’t take a joke either… A pretty mulish bunch if you ask me….
……comes from too much reading and believing the Dail Mal…….Headline of the day, every day….”We’re all doomed…”.
Cheer up lads, you’re in power now you can sell off the NHS with impunity, bring back clause 28, pretend France is cordoned off, ban garlick, drive up poverty, sack nurses, make Lord Ashdown legal…
It’s a brave new dawn, enjoy…..
You are the guys who sack nurses. Your NHS commissars managed to get your “Economy measures” retaliation in first for being soundly rejected by the county of Kent. (also known as the “All Blues”). The long nightmare will not be over until the socialist cancer is finally expunged.
No we can’t take a joke about this, because too many decent people are going to have to pay for what labour have done. I despise them.
Do you mean garlic? as we are not sure what garlick is
Do you mean the Daily Mail?
Do you mean Lord Ashdown (as in Paddy) or Aschcroft?
just checking.
Labour has already started secretly privatising the NHS.Several ex Labour MPs receive cash from private health firms.
Labour privatised the railways.
Labour introduced university tuition fees.
The gap between the rich and poor widened under Labour.
Several multi millionaire nom doms contributed Labour party coffers and were rewarded with peerages.
You’re a bunch of fucking hypocrites and that’s just one of the reasons you lost the election.
If we are guilty of reading the Daily Mail – what have you been reading? The Ladybird book of New Labour Lies it would seem. If any public sector workers do lose their jobs don’t you think that might be related to Liam Byrne’s little side-splitter? Unfortunately we can’t pay people with New Labour lies. If only we could – we’d all be as rich as Tony Blair.
DJPNZ; “I am still trying to precisely locate the humour in this. Son of Himmler (as Byrne should be known)…”…
Might just be clue in that sentence why you don’t see the humour DJPNZ.
Try reading it again, a bit more carefully. See if you get the point……
ah Liam so here you are – go and get your hair cut
Fuck of back to Hollywood you blue-painted Scotch twat.
Hi Mr Byrne,
If you’re still reading, can you please get cancer as soon as possible? Thanks.
Words said in jest often have a more subtle undertheme……………………
Uuh, I think Liam did, uum, a tewiffic job in govewnment. He’s, uuh, a man of gweat integwity and, uum, gweat pwobity. Uuh, I will be wunning for leader and, uum, I would be vewy pwoud to have him in my, uum, shadow cabinet. Uuh.
What a complete and utter — I am so glad this “note” was made public, says everything you need to know about Byrne and his disgusting scorched earth party. The note was not in the least funny – it was a spiteful, crowing little missive and he was too utterly stupid to realise it would be made public.
Yup dismal little wretch. Anyone with half a brain would have known that it was in very poor taste to leave a jokey note of that nature when the money really has run out and we are facing meltdown.
Could it be that Labour lost interest in the Libs when they realised the joy of cheating the Tories out of their election win was not as great as the misery of having to sort out the dungheap they themselves have left behind?
let me out for the day i’ll go to his house and tell him some of my jokes
What the note should have said is ‘Labour woz ere’. That would kind of sum up their fiscal policies and edjukashun.
Your majesty, give the word and I will remove the enemies of the state known as Labour and New Labour. For Queen and Country.
Please proceed, but make it slow and painful, thanks.
A joke,. Yes that’s what this country’s economy has been to Labour. This is the respect they show the people. The biggest debt for decades and they leave office with one sentence.
Its a relief not to hear their barracking defence of the indefensible party lines anymore. What a relief to hear the coalition government talking sense and debating intelligently and with great knowledge.
Hopefully that sentence will be life without parole.
Where’s that burka wearing muslim bitch who stabbed Timms? She could have at least gone after a c-unt who deserves it.
He was pissed, but in vino veritas.
Great slogan for the Tories in the next election though.
Just leaving the subject a moment to note what my better half says re the Millie’s.
1. Dave Millie has the face resembling a monkey.( spot on i reckon)
2. Ed Millie is a dead ringer for Wallace’s nephew in creature comforts. What a pair of Bozo’s.
And Tessa Jowell looks the spitting image of Wendolene, Wallace’s love interest in one of the animations.
Cough up Labour.
Liam is such a wag…I bet David Laws was rolling on the floor laughing when he read Liam’s note! It is little gestures like this that make one realise what a prat Byrne is!
Suffering from Byrne out, no doubt.
http://fxbites.blogspot.com/2010/05/byrne-out.html
Oh, he’s a real wag that Liam isn’t he? He was always well known for his witty one liners and comedy acts during the New Liebour catashtrophe, particularly when viciously smearing an opponent.
We’ll really miss him I feel
What a spiteful little note.
Maybe, as another hilarious little joke, Byrne’s constituents can be the first to sack their MP.
WHEN HE CAME OUT TO PAKISTAN HE WAS SPRAYING MONEY ABOUT LIKE THERE WAZ NO TOMORROW
Yes, that’s just the sort of joke that Chief Secretaries make to each other, but you should hear what Prime Ministers say to each other – it’s fucking hilarious.
Bit harsh to label this pair Polish. Harsh on the Poles that is.
It is true that grandfather Miliband was a resident of Warsaw. However his jouney west started when he allied himself with the soviet invasion of Poland in 1919. The soviets were defeated and grandfather Miliband pitched up in Brussels.
If they are Polish then they have a traitor in the family.
Polish? my arse. Their only loyalty is to international socialism.
Many truths spoken in jest. Liam old cock that excuse will not wash.

“joke” not gone down well…
How can we finally get rid of Balls & Baldymort & Brown & in fact the entire ex labour cabinet?
On another issue, does anyone know the name and contact details of the woman who attacked a very tall male Labour MP the other day?
No, but if your search fails I’m willing to become an assassin.
Directors can be unfit to manage companies and get banned for set times.
High time a criminal or similar charge was brought forward to deal with MPs that waste taxpayer money and leave countries finance inthis condition.
It started over there won’t wash as a defence byrra way.
Liam Byrne has let the cat out of the bag…Joke my arse… Labour(aka Brown’s) management of the nation’s finaces over the past 13 years has been cavalier to say the least and possibly even criminally negligent since January this year . Once Sir Alan Budd has investigated the situation there needs to be serious consideration given to bringing Brown;Darling Byrne to account for their actions….at the very least they should be charged with “misconduct in a public office”.
Brown’s reputation for prudence and the hubristic….”I saved the Global Banking System” needs to be debunked and the public told the truth about the worst Chancellor and worst Prime Minister this country has ever had the mis-fortune to ever have had. I wouldn’t give him a job as a Parking Attendant on Fife Council………………….
I didn’t know Liam Gallagher was Treasury Chief Secretary in the outgoing government. But now he running for Labour Party leader against his brother. This is very confusing
Aren’t jokes meant to be funnY?
Lovely letter.
Must be the first time a labour mp has NOT lied!
We all deserved it for believing their casual lies. So very many times.
Liam Byrne has something of a similarity to Officer Alex Murphy aka Robocop, with his visor / helmet removed.

Liam Byrne is an insufferable, self-opinionated prat of the highest order who deserves a right royal kicking up the backside.
The usual note is one which proffers congratulations/advice – not this “joke”. And, no, I haven’t had a sense of humour bypass, I just think that people have deserved better than the last thirteen years of Labour’s contempt crowned off by Byrne. Nothing could better epitomise their attitude towards us. Bastards all and I’m glad they’ve gone.
I’ve found a nice little lamp post that would suit this cretin almost down to the ground.
All we need is some piano wire…
A lying tosspot till the bitter end.
A true statement would have read: “There is a lot less than no money left”.
2015 campaign slogan:
New Labour: We Meant it All As a Joke
Brokenhearted here I squat
we’ve had to flog the ‘piss-in’ pot.
It is bizarre that he should joke about this crime against the country given the suffering that will result from it. And he has the gall to wag his finger over a paltry £6 Billion of cuts when this only reduces the New Labour spending frenzy from £704 Billion to £698 Billion. Byrne’s letter should be on every Tory election leaflet in 2015. “How every Labour Government ends – in their own words.”
My note to Woolas when I left the Home Office;
Dear Phil,
I’ve ‘tipped the balance’ and let more illegals in that we’ve removed, there’s no more to let in, that is all.
Fuck you very much.
Liam Byrne
I see David’s irony bypass was a success.
There really should be someone looking at whether blind stupidity and pride are a good enough reason why all those arrogant toxic-mouthed fools should not be charged with treason and sabotage.
Arrogant, self opinionated TWAT
Sums up the whole liebour culture in one sentence.
A great slogan for the next election
