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.
crap cartoon and in very poor taste
Ruffley was greedy – but if it really was a suicide attempt then the cartoon’s kicking a man who’s already on the floor.
But if he was depressed for getting caught robbing us wouldn’t it have been kinder to charge him and then put him into care. The rest could have gone to jail and got TAKEN care of.
Loved it when you did it to Brown.
Be hypocritical to complain now.
Not on.
Incredibly poor taste, Guido.
Bugger the poor taste. It’s just a crap cartoon.
Very nice boys. Why the fuck does Guido keeps posting your cartoons? Are you his nephews or something?
Do let us know if either of you have a personal tragedy and we’ll all come round to take this piss.
Crap and sick
Guido, you lost it on this one
Guido, are you on holiday or on “substances” – the postings have gone south lately
So badly drawn I thought it was supposed to be Gordon Brown. It doesn’t look like Ruffley at all.
Anyway he paid it back and his claims were disallowed — ok, maybe he shouldn’t have made the claims in the first place, but most of the other MPs were too. At least this shows he’s got a conscience, unlike some. Are you listening Moran, Blears, Smith et al.?
What’s sick about it? The guy is a wanking politician – kick the bastard all the way down.
AND a politician who was more than happy to trough it while he could – no doubt his only regret is being found out. Sorry, can’t feel any pity for freeloaders like this.
David Miliband thinks that Labour left a great economy, so much so that the cuts the Con-Lib coalition are making now is “vindictive”, surely we should instead print more money to prop up the public sector…. savers…. who cares about them, they were stupid to save for a rainy day, they should have all their money take to bail out the feckless. That’s more or less the Labour line all their MP’s are pushing before the coalition budget.
They’ve slipped into being in opposition like a hand into a glove haven’t they.
The feckless HAVE alraedy been bailed out.
My thoughts are that numerous banks and institutions offered sub-prime loans to the feckless.
Only if they failed to meet their proomises or commitments then the contract is broken and their houses were reposessed.
Unless this happened then the bank’s investments were underwritten.
ie. No bank bail-outs.
So… we now have to pay for the feckless once again – they were a major part of the crisis and now the rest of us pay for it again.
Now, why should the feckless have their “schools, hospitals and benefits” protected or be excused from paying additional tax to correct the situation ?
Banker is aware of the feckless so he knows he will get a default. Yet he continues,makes him feckless in the least and a criminal at the other end, me I say both
Look here!
We’re a couple of guys (interns?) on a government-sponsored apprentice scheme for a Satirical Cartoon – Content & Composition – Level 2 – examination we’re doing and Guido is kindly supporting us in our endeavours!
And it’s not easy – what with having between us – no sense of humour and a profound lack of any talent in the drawing department
Our mums think that all things considered – we’re rather doing well
that’s what Rolf Harris said
Guido…I am normally a supporter but this is too far.
You have upset a lot of people.
One day you will fall.
And you will have to expect reaction to yourself and your family.
What goes around, comes around.
I am all for satire..but this goes way over the line.
Absolutely disgraceful
THESE HuntZ CANNOT DRAW!!
Why must the use such an ugly style? Someone give them lessons.
WHY DOES IT TAKE 2 PEOPLE TO DO IT?
Tasteless, terribly drawn and not at all funny.
Please try harder.
Sick
Oh boo hoo! I didn’t see anyone here complaining when jokes like this were being made at Gordon Brown’s expense.
It’s just words on a page. Nobody died.
You have no ‘right’ to be offended.
very apt. Hope some more do the same
He was clearly of the rails… but the cartoon is on the right track!
The cartoon rather misses the points, it will end on the buffers
He was trying to get his ticket online.
Never fancied it yourselves Skid and Mark ?
After all if i was as unfunny as you two i would !
my kids can draw better,
this is F**kin terrible
You two should jump under a fucking train
That would be funnier than your humorless cartoons
The best Tories are dead ones.
Morning Frankie! Nice to see you back. Where have you been?
Hi pal
I’ve never really been away
i have just not been posting as much
not really a lot to say now after the election
give it three or four years as the next one draws near and i should have alot to say by then !
Its a great problem with politics, and other thigs in life, that the many big things that were bad under Bliar/Broon eventually became so obvious to all that they got the boot. But some of those big things (not all) stated off as small, almost unobservable ones. They then developed a momentum of their own and became monsters.
Here we are, with nothing much substantive (until tomorrow), but somewhere out there, there are new monsters incubating right now. CGT is one, but people are already howling over that. It’s the ones that people aren’t howling about, until they find that they have been stitched, that we need to uncover.
Guess my point is, there is something worthwhile to do even now. The problem is finding out what exactly it is.
Try shutting your trap
OK. My fox-trap around your goolies would be a good start.
fuck off tat you schizo lunatic
Never fancied it yourselves Skid and Mark ?
After all if i was as unfunny as you two i would !
I am not a fan of rich & mark – but any one who criticizes a cartoonist subject should be shot.
Ruffley ran for re-election he is a public figure – he can fix that in an instant… if he chooses not to then he is fair game.
If we aren’t careful we may end up with a full blown mental as PM, and that would be disastarous we could end up at war all over the place, bankrupt etc…
Oh…
They can draw whatever they like….
Equally, I can call it the shit, tastless, unfunny doodling of a couple of mongs.
Of course it helps if you spell tasteless correctly before you accuse someone of being a mong. DUH
see, we’re all only human ST, with all of life’s frailties, ups and downs, pluses and minuses, ins and outs. Now, tell me , what do you think your problem is cos we can help you here? it will mean some confrontation but hey, we’re all in this together aren’t we? Some come on tell us, when did you have the sex change…..?
ST, did you decide to leave the punctuation out of your post on purpose?
The poor sod should resign
MPs are supposed to set an example…
lets hope he’s set an example to skid and mark
Lets hope the rest of them do the same, saves rope
Yeah as if thats going to happen!!
I’m more interested to know the reason he did this? Personal tragedy, work related, criminal? Hopefully the story will come out soon.
Why would you be interested to learn if its a personal tragedy? Criminal, yeah I can see why you’d want to know, but personal?
Well, with so many nutters pulling the levers of governement I want to identify those who are predisposed to go mental. Ruffley went mental – I don’t want him governing me.
Good point.
Have I missed something, did Nigel Lawson throw himself under a train?
A Tory MP, David Ruffley did on Thu. Missed the live rail though.
Thank goodness for Dave’s good judgement in not making this incompetent twat a minister. Couldn’t even fall in front of a train properly!
The Penguin.
I’ve not been following the news either, but do you mean to say this guy not only missed the live rail but he missed the train, too? I mean, trains are like, you know, big.
Surely if you’re going to top yourself, you make some sort of effort to get it right, and you’d really actually have to work pretty hard to get “jumping under a train” wrong.
What puzzles me is that he chose to do in a terminus. I mean, how fast was the train going? 3mph?
Maybe it was the wrong type of train.
Wrong type of politician on the track?
The Penguin.
It was called the victoria express.Now thats the cartoon.
Epic fail, I’m afraid.
Now, if it had been Gordon who had tried and failed ………………
Are there any trains in Kircaldy ?
Hmmm…….. its getting to be like ‘The news of the World’ around here
– can’t we all be rude about Gordon or Mandy again?
No but they do have a store that sells Anti English Merchandise
http://www.zazzle.co.uk/
Go to this site and design your own ‘Anyone but Murray’ T-shirt.
Do they sell any merchandise that says, “Thank you English taxpayers for the £20bn+ per annum you give us so generously because without it we’d be screwed”?
Or how about, “Thank you, dear English friends, for bailing out Scotland’s banks”?
Just wondering..
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/article657700.ece
My T shirt says fuck off jock your on your own
The campaigne for an english parliament shot it’s self in the foot. Should have left them on sale.So you have to ask yourself what they really want.
I don’t mind pushing one there…
Hard lines,eh?
I think we should all ‘Rail’ against Guildo for being on the wrong ‘track’ we should ‘signal’ our displeasure and ‘guard’ against making ‘second class’ ‘points’. A true ‘conductor’ of mirth would perhaps show Ruffley as a ‘sleeper’ with a guard standing in ‘station’ over him. A ‘first class’ cartoonist would ‘mind the gap’ between good and bad taste but with ‘tunnel’ vision and wanting to ’tilt’ against authority he probably thought the subject matter was just the ‘ticket’. Some will get up a full head of steam but some will say he was lucky to miss the train.
I bet you’re chuffed with that!
Shouldn’t that be ‘chuff’ed
**applause**
Not bad.
Better than the cartoon, certainly.
Take the cartoon down..it’s in poor taste…having seen someone throw themselves under a train..it’s not funny I CAN assure you !!!
Yes agreed i saw one years ago
yuck !
them trains really make a mess of you
biggest piece of whats left of you would fit in your pocket
Get back ‘ome Prezza an take me to the airdessers in one of them Jags. I’ve ad enu of you and your Traycee
Robert Green would probably let the train go under his body.
got any pics?
Knew someone whose job was to clean up the underground trains afterwards, was about one a week as I recall.
Now that’s a job where you can name your own salary…
Funny he never married !!!!!
Yup, I wonder why?
Hmmm.being blackmailed for something nasty?
Is the man in the white coat Malcolm Rifkind?
That cartoon is clown shoes, actually it’s worse – it’s monghat.
Monghat on a girls bike, wearing clown shoes.
Monghat on a girls bike with flat tyres, wearing clown shoes with no laces
I hope ‘rich and mark’ are only one person! if its takes two of you to think up and scribble down this bunch of bollocks every week, then its pretty poor really – innit!
“if its takes two of you to think up and scribble down this bunch of bollocks every week, then its pretty poor really”
I’m reviewing an grant application for the EPSRC today, I think I’ve just found my comment.

Yet another bloody excuse……

It wasn’t a serious attempt at suicide. I understand he bought a return ticket.
** CLAPS **
So it was a cry for attention? That’s more than his constituents get, from what I’ve heard. He’s too busy filling out expense forms, flipping houses, brown-nosing the Whips, and sucking up to the Blue-rinsers of Suffolk County Council to pay much heed to the hoi-polloi.
Jumping in front of a train?
That’s one fucking loud cry for attention.
and missing both the live rail and the fucking train is what?
Yep, take it down GF. Enough…
The day a Minister or some webmong sets the editorial standards of the blog is the day Guido retires.
But a webmong clearly does set the editorial standards guido, YOU!
Do not get above yourself, you are still JUST a blogger!
And what are you, Mr Ned?
Oh, Mr Ned is a Tory stooge. Any Huhne would know that after reading some of his posts.
I am JUST a reader of this blog, just like you, Unsworth.
And Anonymous, if you read my previous posts, you will see that I am independent politically, as I have criticised the tories more than I have praised them. I do consider the coalition government to be far superior to the previous malevolent labour maladministration and it was very important to get labour out of power.
If UKIP had stood any chance of getting more than about 4% of the vote in my constituency, I would have voted UKIP. But they came NOWHERE here, beating B&P by only one vote!
Labour won here AGAIN!!!
get off his case I asked for it.
GF you lose people when you publish this sort of shit. Ppl who generally like your work. This is the sort of crap that MacBride would draw and snigger over with Whelan and Co. That’s the sort of bile you’re peddling. Take it down, apologise and learn the lesson.
Bye.
Now that’s nailing your colours.Theres no going back from that.
No he shouldn’t take it down. If Guido thought it was appropriate to put up then he shouldn’t be censored, it just, in my opinion, reflects badly on him.
Still as the man himself would say, I can always accept a refund and fuck off.
“No he shouldn’t take it down” – Exactly.
“…reflects badly on him.” – Your opinion, not mine, but thankfully we live in a (relatively) free country to express our thoughts and feelings.

Phew! Thought they’d be taking the piss out of my stay in hospital!
Very poor taste. You may wish to consider removing this.
was he looking for a platform to re-launch himself ?
The best so far!
He’d be on the Circle line then?
Circle Jerk Line.
Families. Where would we be without them?
It’s a crap cartoon, but i don’t share the horrified responses to the actual subject matter.
Don’t like it…………………freedom of speech etc…..
Freedom of speech allows those who like the cartoon and those who are utterly unmoved by it and those who are horrified by it to all air their views.
They all have the same right to spout their opinions.
Lets all have a laugh
Just got a new african girlfriend. I’ve just discovered if I write ‘VUVUZELA’ down the side of my cock.. She can blow it for over 90 minutes
Buy her a fucking England shirt and ask her if she can play for 90 minutes
because i know a bunch of c*nts that can’t !
90 minutes? Shit! England only needed to play for 5 minutes against Algeria to win and they could not be arsed to do even that much!
What the FUCK happened to Rooney? Standing still on the pitch and just watching the ball dribble past him on several occasions. Letting the Algerians take the ball off him at will… Lampard was just as bad.
In-fact the whole team (bar maybe the goalie) was just abysmal. WTF happened to them?
They deserve the folllowing joke:
All future televised England matches have been moved to the Gay adult channel – this is because the sight of 11 arseholes getting hammered for 90 mins was far too explicit for terrestrial television.
love it !
Looking like France v England for the final.
England are now 16/1 to win the world cup. That means if you put £100 on, you will lose £100.
England team visited a Cape Town orphanage today.”It’s heartbreaking to see their sad faces with no hope”, said Jamal aged 6.
The England team has gone back to basic’s in training this morning starting with dribbling the ball around dustbins
at halftime the dustbins were 5-0 up !
Did you hear the one about the Muslim with a sense of humour?
No, neither did I.
Have you not read the Qu’oran? It’s a hoot!
I particularly like the bit about not eating pork. I mean, if you were an omnipotent being who’d created the laws of physics and then a universe of a billion galaxies, each with around a billion stars – a trillion unique stars in total – wouldn’t you sit and wait for 14 billion years before writing a book that says, “don’t eat bacon sandwiches”?
Yes I would. It’s irony.
But at the time pigs could be the carriers of unpleasant diseases that could affect humans. Banning the eating of pork was a simple aid to survival.
But pigs fly dont’ they ?
Straight from the slurry pit into the oven
Tapeworm me dears – Tapeworm!
When the “Taenia Solium” emerged from the backend of a fellow member of the tribe he / she was sent into the wilderness for as many days as there were ‘eggs’ – the effect was similar to being on a starvation diet.
This was a kill or cure solution and if the person infected with tapeworm died – he was said to have ‘had his bacon’ or ‘lost his chops’
I also remember that the person infected with the tapeworm always has an itchy arse hole – this condition triggered the phrase – ‘pork scratchings’
Why did Allah create unpleasant diseases?
A bit silly really, wasn’t it?
omnipotence doesn’t imply lack of capriciousness………..just ask peter mandelson….
Of all the muzzys I knew as soon as no other muzzys were looking it was “Gis a bite of your bacon sarny”

+++Claps+++

what do you call a muslim lesbian MINGEATER
Asif.
Unacceptable.
I find most of your comments on your website entertaining but this is totally unacceptable.
Could only be prepared and publised by people with no empathy for others or those who have never experienced pure pain.
I presume you think that the child or family of such a person would laugh and giggle at this?
Unaccpetable. And I hope that your sponsors agree.
Look I agree with you about both the low quality and bad taste, but if we’re really that offended then we don’t have to visit do we? His sponsors would leave etc etc.
If you really think GF is that big of a twat and that your that offended then stop visiting.
I think its tastless crap, and that GF is acting like a wanker to put it up and I wouldn’t put it up on my website – but then it’s not my, highly successful, website is it?
ok ST.
If your wife dies just let me know. I’ll make some good jokes cos..hey…it’s free speech init.
We all have the freedom, it would be nice if some people were able to not use it with abandon for other.
I agree, and I take your point about (my non-existant) wife. But where do we draw the line, what about those Mohammed cartoons is that acceptable or not and why?
As I said, if this appeared in some shitty chat room we’d write GF off as a sick, tasteless mentalist venting posionous bile into his keyboard and think nothing more of it. He’s successful that’s why you feel the need to demand he takes it down, if he wasn’t you wouldn’t. How do you stop this blog being successful? Answer: stop visiting.
The alternative is we have to run everything by you to make sure it is not offensive. It would be nice if GF and Rich and Mark had as much empathy as you and me, but clearly they don’t, the question is how strongly do you feel about this? I don’t like it, BUT it won’t put me off visiting as I am clearly not that morally outraged.
ANYWAY:-
What I’m saying is we have the power to turn Guido into an unimportant, rambling lunatic (who I imagine would also probably soil himself) – so come on chaps we can do it!
DM, YOU have no right to write such things you evil bastard! You want freedom of speech restricted? Then it is NOT free anymore is it??? And that means it is NOT free for you either!
You only want freedom of speech restricted based solely on what YOU find offensive? FUCK YOU!
On and For the record, I also find this “cartoon” to be sick and in very poor taste. But Guido has EVERY RIGHT to post it and YOU have every right to condemn it. But NEITHER of you has the right to stop free speech of others.
Guido can, of course, censor whomever he chooses on his own site, that does NOT prevent free speech, as those who he does censor can easily post elsewhere.
My own Brother killed himself in 2001. I am therefore particularly sensitive to humour based around suicide or attempted suicide. I do not find it funny AT ALL, However, I would NEVER attempt to BAN someone else from enjoying that humour if that is what they find funny.
Fucking hell, what happened to live and let live, and defending the other persons write to objectionable opinions???
DM, if YOU cannot handle freedom, FUCK OFF!
What he said.
I concur. Guido should leave the cartoon in place to prove what a sad fuck he is.
Yes Guido: Ned, me and the Bish will all die for your right to be a twat.
PS. hands up anyone who comes here to read what Guido has to say?
I come here to read others comments – they are the funniest thing on the interweb.
I’v got to hand it to Guido. I have said plenty on here that would have got me banned by other so called free speech sites,incidently I have been banned by every free speech site in the land of the free.The USSA
Go read someplace else then.
Where does he go to next week?
Perhaps a cartoon mocking DC’s disabled dead child?
it’s all free speech init.
Guido. You are one fat c*nt.
So thats your problem you don’t like fattys.
Where’s Jonah’s beard? Is she in Kent visiting her special friend?
according to the last post she and the children are staying with friends in the London area Whilst McBust is staying in Killkiddies
i said months ago she would be off like a fucking shot as soon as he lost !
ha ha ha ha!
She’s had a shave recently..
To flog her book…
Judging by the pious tone of some commentators, one might think MP’s were just ordinary people with real everyday problems instead of mealy mouthed, self serving, greedy, hypoctitical, thieving, lieing bastards who deserve to be run over by a train..
Too right- there are some really insensitive people here.
Just think of the anguish so many suffered at having their train delayed. And then you’ve got to check if it was damaged – no doubt yet again all at the publics expense.
‘Elf and safty innit
I got cheated out of a penny
Robert Green tried to jump in front of a train !
But the fucking train went under him !

Stupid Huhne couldnt even get his suicide right,

Hunt
Nope… I thought that maybe the auto censor had replaced the word “cunt” with the word Huhne. Not the case, it is still using hoon.
Huhne is the new Hoon
You are sooooooo last year Mr Ned
but that is not an automatic word swap like Hoon is.
Hunt
Extra funny (true) but I read that the train reversed after he jumped
check the daily mail website
Probably a voter wishing to make extra sure
Yes, backwards and forwards five times, but they still could not get the bugger.
Thoe MPs always are a slimy lot, slithering away from the wheels like that.
Ah wah gwan? Me hope you all gonna vote for me. Me support private skools an’ ting. Well, only for me son. As leader, me will do da bogle bogle in a dancehall stylee at every PMQs. Rice an’ pea, rice an’ pea.
Many years ago “The Late Great Bernard Manning” almost caused a riot at a catholic club when he walked out on stage to see a massive crucifix with jesus on it
he said”I see you got the c*nt that nicked you telly ”
sick but very funny !
Why have they done a cartoon of Carina Trimingham?
I bet that the troughing Huhne bought a first class ticket on expenses before jumping
Train drivers obviously need retraining
Not one of their best. Not one of their best at all. The worst of bad taste.
Time to re-consider posting these alleged cartoons.
I see Pavlos was arrested by 14 armed plod and interrogated for 5 hours. Would be a nice touch if Beckham turned up at court and put in a good word for him.
The fucking plod are out of control,treating everyone like fucking terrorists,hope their budget is cut to fuck tomorrow.
Never a Tory supporter!!!!
I have to admit he is one of the Tory MP’s that actually works hard for his constituency, he has on his own admission made a few silly mistakes but unlike most has taken it to heart.
I suspect his career may be over in Bury St Edmunds but they will be the poorer and hopefully he will recover, he is a decent bloke!
I just got on a bus when a gorgeous woman next to me started breast feeding herbaby. The baby wonttake it so she says “Come on, eat it all up or i’ll give it to this nice man.”
10 minutes later the baby is still not feeding so she says it again. I got pissed off so i shouted “listen love, can you make your fuckin mind up? I shoulda got off 4 stops ago”
All MPs should be sent for re training
If they dont get it right the first time

This morning, I had meetings with ministerial colleagues. In addition to my duties in my room, I shall have further such meetings later today.
Don’t forget to wipe your arse this time. I’m fed up with trying to remove skid marks.
Has anyone seen “outnumbered”? Those brilliant scenes where the little girl acts out scenes from X factor, (or other shows) with her toys on her bed?
I’ll just bet that Gordon Brown is doing the same thing.
It’s a pity, and I’m as much to blame here, that we have commented on the rather nasty little cartoon. I feel sure if we had just ignored it then the cartoonists would have to pack it in and grow up.
Still very pleasing to see a Brit winning the golf last night – a good way to stick two fingers up at the Yanks – cant even win their own tournament (or come in top 3). US is not centre of and does not rule the world.
But why cant they play it a a sensible time of the day – I fell asleep before the end. So selfish of them
Lord Anthony Hayward OBE, BSM, BP, UK – should be the next UK ambassador to US

my mate has a Thai bride he filled in all the correct forms before she was allowed to come here
she can now live here for good
only restriction is she can’t work for two years
so there is something wrong with your mates story!
my mate has a Thai bride he filled in all the correct forms before she was allowed to come here…
What forms were they? Add to basket and proceed to checkout?
she would be allowed to apply for a permanent resident’s visa but would have to pass The British Test to get one. Chances are she won’t. If they have kids, mum’s being sent home. Bad luck.
Only 3 posted comments?
There must be hundreds that failed moderation. I am glad that they are making immigration tougher. It should be far tougher still.
Shut the gates, we are full!
No, i’m English.
Today’s cartoon maybe in poor taste, but when I think of all the money those fecking troughers stole from us, I would be at the front of the queue of volunteers for pushing the piggies off the platform!
Phew there was I thinking for a moment that here was a straight Liberal for once. Good to see that Huhne is a proper Liberal afterall.
Turns out the woman that Huhne dumped his wife and children for is a Doc Marten wearing Lesbian who even had one of those civil partnerships and is at the moment shacked up with another woman. Mrs Huhne is going to have her work cut out explaining to the kids their Dad’s odd behaviour

I’m waiting to hear from Tony Blair whether it’s OK to laugh at this cartoon. I don’t do anything until I get his orders. Rather like when I went around TV studios trumpeting the invasion of Iraq in return for being made human rights envoy to Iraq (I did a splendid job of that, don’t you think?).
Never kick a man when he is down. One day it will happen to you and you will not understand the intelligence of the person who sank so low.

i went there once on my holidays
it has a train station with the same name
That’s the funniest comment for a month… cracked me up… ROTFLMAO
It’s called a railway station, not train station!
Yes you are right and the railway station name is nothing like what the poster posted
it is humour
maybe not to your tree hugging standard
but it is to mine so fuck off and spot trains at your railway station
while i take the piss out of some welsh guy at my train station
you fucking anorak

the moronic tendency will stay: the more discerning will move on. Beware Guido. (I mean Guido beware, not beware of Guido, although that might be apposite..)
Right, that’s it. All over to Dale’s place for a more genteel atmosphere, where we can sip tea and discuss homophobic issues affecting the coalition.
And West Ham….fap fap fap…..
My other half’s Audi’s conked out, so Mrs Dale can fuck right off.

As Ruffley used to be a lawyer
this could be seen as a “Miss-carriage of justice”
A troffer and a lawyer.2 reasons to justify this post.
Suck my vuvuzela.
I like being spit-roasted.
She’s been Triming-em for years !
I’m still here…in Killcalldee. Writing my memoirs and planning my return to public….hold on. What do you want? I told you, I don’t like taking those tablets. They make me feel all funny…No, I won’t. I’ll hurl my Nokia if you’re not careful.
Brazilian player Kaka was sent off last night. Funny. I thought only the England players were kaka.
Rubbish even by Rich and Mark standards. Why is Peter mandleson in a bed talking about throwing himself in front of a train?
To draw political cartoons you need to have
A)the ability to make a recognizable likeness
B)something incisive to say
…and preferably…
C)some sort of a sense of humour. Rich and mark have none of these.
Which does the drawing and which does the colouring in?
Bresznhev and Bill Gates?
This is in such poor taste, and not even funny.
To call this a “satirical” blog is an insult to satire.
You dropped the ball on this one Fawkes
The Mail reports –
A three-year old boy has been attacked by a fox in a school playground.
Police called the RSPCA and an inspector attended
A school in my area paid £30,000 to have its play / sports field to be protected from infectious (TB) badgers – with fencing that went FIVE FEET BELOW ground level!
Kids today? Well I don’t know!
We’re paying money to have schools fortified against TB riddled badgers?
I’m sorry but have I fell through the fucking looking glass?
I used to be President of the UK badger protection society, but after they linked badgers to TB we had to go underground!
is that the same TB who took us to Iraq?
I am in favour of controlling fox numbers and would love to go shooting foxes, so could hardly be accused of being a soft, wussy liberal friend of these furry vermin, but, Of course he was attacked. He grabbed the foxes tail and gave it a good yank. Of course the fucking fox attacked him!
What did he learn at school today? That foxes will bite when attacked. Serves the stupid little shit right!
gang of people running screaming down the road
a guy says whats up ?
a lion escaped from the zoo was the reply
which way did it go he asks ?
you dont think were fucking chasing it do you ?
Can’t blame the Fox, the kid was trying to drag him out from under a building by his tail.
Mr Gordon Brown is writing another book could you please submit titles for his latest offering
thank you !
Gordon Brown: A Life: Straight in the Bin
Gordon Brown: Remaindered.
gordon brown: scot of the arse antics
Oh gosh, that is too much. Anyone who throws themselves under a train must be in total despair, I can’t look at the cartoon.
Nor i.
Got any photos?
Me and my brother pulled a couple of cracking birds last night.
We took them home and had sex in front of the fire.
The girls just watched.
love it ! FAF
fap fap fap to that image!!!
With such a dainty, feminine squeeze one clearly has no need for a trouser press: http://tinyurl.com/326urzu
…as a welder’s bench.
With a mug like that she could pass as a royal.
I thought they were going to share his £119 claimed for on expenses Corby trouser press?
He must have been told “dont stand to close to the edge
the train will suck you off !”
I’d love to have seen the internet comments for the Hogarth cartoons in their day… would have been pretty similar.
MP Ruffley will never make it into th 2012 Olympics
He has been undertraining
I posted this the other day but it still makes me laugh!
Irishman walking passed a pub
he sees a sign that says
PIES 50P
WANKS 10P
he says “I’ll have some of that !”
he enters the pub to see a stunning blond behind the bar
he says “are you the girl who gives the wanks ?
she says yes
he says
well wash your fuckin hands and give us a pie !
You’d get a bigger laugh on this blog if you changed it to Prescott.
meanwhile, in South Africa the World Cup continues to blossom, as does FIFA’s questionable and corrupt practices …

But hey, it’s only a game
Ruffley goes on Desert Island Discs
Asked for his favourite tune he says
“I might as well jump” by Van Halen
First Timms, and now Ruffley,manage to cheat death.
Is there anything they won’t fiddle?
Blunkett failed to get trampled to death while cow-baiting.

Theres no fucking justice
Why is everybody so upset about
one MP’s attempt to derail the coalition
I got cheated
Why do you give blog space to these cartoons? Today it is in amazingly poor taste, as well as not funny. Where as usually it is just not funny.
Do they pay you to use them?
This blog has become so bad since the election that it’s become embarassing to read. From the best political blog on the web to a third/fourth rate one.
You can’t dine off the McBride affair for the rest of your life.
SORT IT OUT.
Take a refund and fuck off.
just fuck off without a refund.
Goon one lads. Almost as witty as the cartoon
What kind of moron makes “jokes” about suicide?
Police officers
Ask one
Lots of people on this blog it seems.
Full queen ahead
Shit and sick.
No – I don’t like it .
Then you know where to go.
The Penguin.
Appalling.
He should have thrown himself under Shagger Noakes. They would have finished him off.
Never been bothered to make the effort to write a comment on RichandMark’s monday ‘humour’ before (usually just crap or wide of the mark, rather than in deep bad taste) but now been prompted to say what I and many others will have long thought:
DEAR RICH & MARK
Can I suggest you swap roles? It can’t get much worse. One of you can’t draw very well and the other one has precious little wit. Or do both of you have to put your combined brains together to eek out these ideas? The only entertainment value usually to be gained from these is trying to work who they are meant to be (even with the help of the crashingly unsubtle clues).
GUIDO: Largely enjoy your site (and yes I know you don’t read the comments, and can understand why, but here goes anyway). You will probably claim to exert no editorial control, or worse still, claim this is fair game. But as I’m given to understand you had your own brush with a nervous breakdown I thought you might have a bit more understanding of mental health issues and have told your inferior sidekicks to go back to the drawing board.
You thought wrong.
Hurrah, a small triumph. Obv reading the comments today to derive extra satisfaction at all the offence caused? Anyway I feel alot better now.
Have the New Labour Politically Correct Outreach Workers been visiting this blog? This wasn’t some poor sod who’d lost his job & was now about to lose his home & family that tried to top himself – this was a thieving expense claiming MP, one who figured in the expenses scandal & who’s now feeling hard done by for all the criticism he’s received about it. Also, as he did it at the terminus where trains are going slow & he’d bought a return ticket seems like it was more a sympathy ploy (akin to Prezza’s bulimea stories) than a serious attempt to top himself. Particularly as the train missed him – twice.
feed him to prezza
What doesn’t destroy you males you stronger eh?
shit.makes
Being stupid he probably misunderstood the announcement
“Ladies and Gentlemen First class is AT the front of the train”
as being
“Ladies and Gentlemen First class is IN front of the train”
People committing suicide under trains are amongst the most thoughtless, self-centred bastards imaginable.
If they want to top themselves they need only buy themselves several packets of readily available drugs, take to their beds with a bottle or two of whisky and send a second class letter to the coroner detailing where they can be found before they start stinking the place up too badly.
Delaying several hundred thousand people by hours, causing untold trauma to the poor train driver, platform full of witnesses and ambulancemen, firemen etc that have to bag these fuckers up just because they’re having a bad day or a shit life displays such a thoughtless disregard for others that if this was a suicide attempt then we should wait until he’s better and then toss the fucker under a freight train at 4am in the morning where he can cause the minimum of disruption.
As for anthropomorphising MPs – in my opinion you couldn’t kill enough of them or toss enough of them in front of trains.
Useless cu*nts to a man. Or near enough. There might be the occasional good’un but it wouldn’t be statistically significant.
Extend the milk of human kindness to an MP? I’d sooner shit in their drip.
the govt could supply, if there’s any left from afgan, a free body bag with a one way pill inside

So, you don’t like MPs then? How long have you had this problem?
Since the Brownian Imbecility destroyed the UK economy. Although I wouldn’t call it a ‘problem’.
Selfish bastard
Perhaps we should set up a special section of railway, easily accessible from London, where trains just drive over and back on a mile of track with a handy ‘Leaper’s Platform’ half way along.
That way they don’t disrupt a million people trying to get home on a Friday night.
The trains could be driven by psychopaths who wouldn’t lose a wink of sleep. I suggest ex-MPs.
I like the cut of your jib !

Heard you the first time.
Just in case any scyzophrenics fancy droppping by.
According to Wikiwoodles, he was a spad to that fat fucking Bilderberg c-unt, Kenneth Clarke, and then became an MP.
The parasitic sack of shit has never had a job!
David Laurie (whats up Ducky?) Ruffley is a dirty evil malignancy eating taxpayers money. He is utterly worthless shite, and so incompetent he failed at throwing himself under a train.
The NHS will now sped tens of £1000s on the bastard giving him gentle therapy, while gangs of psychotic nutters stalk the streets with axes because there is no money to treat them.
Die next time mugga fugga!
We are not like that. We are just hungry

be great if the MSN get on board giving Guido lots of negative free publicity
shouldn’t list your name and address on whois when you upset the cartoon police
Well done Fawkes that got the hits up.
but this is a TORY!! so it must be in poor taste
Thank you for reminding me why I avoid your blog. As somebody who’s suffered severe depression, I think your taste stinks. I was tempted to post this anonymously; but if you want to have a go, come ahead.
Yes, we don’t want any depressives round here. Suggest you don’t come back.
Guido we are all fucking depressed after 13 years of Labour
thats why we come here

You have to wonder how different his blog would have been if Ruffley’s suicide attempt had suceeded?
Or, for example, if a member of your family had done something similar and had a “satirical” cartoon on it?
Really think about that.
