Rejoice! Rejoice! Balls is Officially Nominated

As the convenor of the grassroots internet-based #Balls4Leader campaign it is Guido’s pleasure to inform co-conspirators that Balls has now been officially nominated by 33 MPs.

Onwards to victory comrades…

UPDATE : Could a co-conspirator come up with a suitable logo for the campaign?

          MPs’ Expenses: Treasury chief David Laws, his secret lover and a £40,000 claim
          The Cabinet minister charged with rescuing the Government’s finances has used taxpayers’ money to pay more than £40,000 to his long-term partner, The Daily Telegraph can disclose.

            He was charging the taxpayer less than he would have if it had been a joint mortgage because he didn’t want to be ‘outed’. Apparently the taxpayers should hope for more closeted gay ministers.

          • Look – I’m as tolerant as the next man, but the idea of having an arse bandit running the nation’s books is just disgusting.

            Surely there are straight MPs who can add up (and subtract, which is more important in these times of total fuckedness) – why allow an uphill gardner to fuck up the economy again?

            Haven’t we learned from 13 years of the Cape Cod Cruise-AIDS-er?

            The last thing we need at this time is 9 bob notes…

          ‘balls is never going to win’.

          PLP – around 30%
          Union vote – controlled by Unite, around 90%
          Liebour party members – who knows?

          If Go-Balls gets more than 20% of the members vote, he’s in, and there’s nothing that MiliMossad or MiliGreen can do about it.

        Also: how the fuck is Floella Benjamin in any qualified to redraft and revise the law? Jesus wept… Is she seriously the best person the Lib Dems had? A washed up lightweight kids telly presenter is their contribution to the revising chamber, their champion to protect our rights and constitution against the executive. Floella Benjamin.

      Just when I thought my day was going to be good the first news worthy note I see on the screen is that fat oaf Prescott getting a knighthood. Just about sums up everything wrong with politics. Apart from being elected by the peasantry of Hull (they would have voted for a sheep if it wore a red rosette) the man never achieved anything of note while in office except keeping his secretary happy with working class ‘roughie’sex. He was a total disaster at every Department he invaded. God give me strength so I may get through this day without kicking the cat.

        27 …then, of course, there’s the initiation. Does he know that ever since the Tudors, Yorkshire Peers have been required to bring, and eat, a white rose, saving the stem and its prickles till last?… and has he also yet been told that the Feudal duties of Yorkist Peers include that of ‘executing a Bumbulum’ before Her Majesty, and that it was failure to observe this rite that caused the First Queen Elizabeth to banish her ‘naughty Godson’ – inventor, as it happens, of the flushing loo, or jakes?
        I can be in no doubt but that The Earl Marshal will at some point inform Mr. Prescott, that, for the first year of his sitting, he will be expected graciously to allow any and all of his Peers whose Peerages are more senior to his, to enter their food and drink expenditure in the House against his name, while, for the greater unity of the Realm, all and several Lancastrian Peers shall have the added hospitality afforded them of use of his Wife – whether in London, or in the County of Yorkshire, or in any of her Majesty’s Dominions, including Calais, Canada, the Revolting Colonies, most of Africa, the Indies (both East and West) and other such places as may by Her Majesty’s will be from time to time determined. To him will fall, annually, the signal honour of bearing before The Heir Apparent his Easement Piece, and of loyally disposing of the contents of the same…

    YC’s journal

    Went to John Prezza’s BBQ. He had loads of people there to celebrate being made Lord of Hamm. D.miliband kept making jokes about the strength of his punch and everyone was very jolly. Well, almost everyone. Ed was being that aloof, cold person he has become lately. He refused to congratulate John, saying he could have been a lord but he didn’t want to be one. He wouldn’t have anything to drink, just pepsi as “it started in America”
    As he took a bite out of a burger a wasp flew into his mouth. He started gasping and puffing and holding his throat. “Stay back..I’ll dislodge it” he said. He hunched his shoulders and began doing a jaw drop breathing method that seemed very familiar. The wasp flew out but Ed was still troubled and he continued to do that odd breathing thing all evening.

    Are you all right? I asked him.
    “I’m fine. Actually, its quite good breathing like this. Helps my sinuses,” he said.
    “Keeps the bad headaches away. iI may keep it up. It doesn’t look odd does it?”

    “Enjoying the party Nutssack?” called Prescott.
    “erm, well, i erm, am not party leader yet, but when i am i will be not so much enjoying as leading the labour party to new heights and reaching for..”
    “I meant me Lordship party tosstwonk, you’re as fun as one of my farts in a pillow case. Leave that windsock there girl..’ere..Cooper..wanna see me hide the Richmond in some XXXL ‘y’ fronts?”

    Ed insisted it was time to leave. “I’ve work to do in the cellar, erm, I mean office.. Its the right thing to do..”

    He really isn’t much fun since he began … changing.

    In return the unions donated some of those £millions to the very hard up labour party. (money laundering)

    Now that cameron and cleggie are in government the taxpayers £millions to the unions are going to cease.

            Period.

          • Precognition says:

            Saying something with mock authority will not make it true
            assertion is no substitute for the facts and the facts are this is a coalition between two very different parties forged out of nothing other than the desire to cling onto power
            What possible reason would the Liberal Democrats have to stay in a Government if they fail to get the electoral voting system changed ?
            Just staying in so they can get more unpopular with each passing month and tax rise and cut to then get annihilated under the old first past the post system in 5 years ?
            or cut and run while they still have some popularity left and a Party that hasn’t all but disappeared or split in two ?
            electoral reform will break this even if events and the backbenches don’t
            nobody is naive enough to think this coalition can end in anything other than widespread acrimony and blame and end it will
            the question is how long it last and 5 years looks wildly optimistic after tonight

    David Laws was apparently offered a new pot plant for his Treasury Office when he arrived there for the first time.

    That he asked while doing so how much the Treasury spends on pot plants.

    That he got an answer quickly.

    And that the Treasury no longer has a budget for pot plants.

    “It’s not the sort of thing we comment on,” a Treasury spokesman tells me guardedly, when I ring.

    David Laws – don’t you love him?

    In September 2007, the married couple and Labour Cabinet ministers, Ed Balls, the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families, and Yvette Cooper, then the Housing Minister, were accused of exploiting the Commons’ allowances system in order to pay for a £655,000 house in Stoke Newington, North London.

    The couple subsequently declared this to be their second home, despite spending most of their time in London in order to fulfil their ministerial responsibilities and their children attending London schools. The declaration of the Stoke Newington property as their second home meant that they became eligible for a reported Additional Costs Allowance (ACA) of £44,000 a year to cover the property’s £438,000 mortgage.

    Although some feel my politics are a shade to the right of Martin Bormann & that I have a strong homophobic leanings – I think it would be a shame to lose David Laws. He seems one of the best Libs I’ve seen and would be a genuine loss – the idea of getting the Libs to share the association with the necessary cuts to come may just ensure a proper Conseravative majority next time as it will make Labour smears even harder to sustain, even with a complicit BBC, when two of the main parties are defending them.
