Calamity Kenny Spinning for Ed Miliband
In a quick update to the Labour Political Advisers list, Guido was most amused to hear that omnishambolic press officer Kenny Young has managed to keep his job. If you reward the slavish loyalty of greased-up party hacks who come up through the youth ranks with cosy press office jobs, you may find they don’t exactly have the talents required for such a high-pressure environment. Kenny is about as loyal as they come, a co-conspirator reports that he openly told people he styled his hair on Gordon Brown’s while chairman of Labour Students. So loyal he was assigned to be Gordon’s political press officer for the election campaign. Which went well.
First there was the infamous door opening for his hero Gordon, which the Tories quickly turned into an attack poster:
If that wasn’t bad enough in late April young Kenny was accompanying the Prime Minister on a trip to Rochdale. What could possible go wrong? Well any experienced press officer would have checked that their boss’s microphone was switched off after an event. Kenny was inside Mrs Duffy’s house as part of that hugely successful contingent of Brown staffers begging her to come outside after the apology.
Instead of firing this inept and useless spinner he’s got a new job. He’s now Ed Milband’s Head of Press… what could possibly go wrong?
UPDATE : Punters give Ed a 25% chance of becoming Labour leader versus a 62% chance for his brother David. No odds available on Kenny’s chances one day.
an ‘ally’ tells me your svelte figure is a homage Eric Pickles
Your ally is badly informed, it is an homage to Guinness.
Which is why you look like a barrel?
A Firkin hogshead?
Has that English-hating cu*nt Andy Murray been knocked out of the tennis yet?
One can never completely relax until he’s been knocked out.
Here’s another Scottish arsehole with a typically modest approach to sporting brilliance…
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/world_cup_2010/8774163.stm
Scotland would have got through to the quarter finals this year. If they’d qualified.
Just like Denis Law reckons Scotland should have won the 1966 World Cup. If only they’d qualified. And been parachuted into an England-Scotland final without any of the silliness of preliminary rounds or quarter finals, semi-finals, trivial shit like that for players of his stature.
He’s serious too. He really means it. Scotland robbed of the world cup in 1966. Just because they failed to qualify and because England didn’t just play their way through to the final and then substitute Germany as opponents at the last minute.
And, yet again, Scotland robbed, robbed I tell ya, of a quarter final place.
No wonder they keep voting for lunatics like Brown. They’re all fucking mental.
The Irish, who really were robbed of a World Cup by the cheating French, don’t whinge half as much as the Scots, who haven’t produced a footballer of international class these past 20 years.
Sir William, what players of international class were evident in the England squad again. Please run their names past me again I must have missed them.
And whilst on the subject how many managers of international class have the English produced in the last 20 Years. If the answer is Harry Rednap then God help you.
You don’t half have a high opinion of yourself, do you jgm2?
jgm2 is a well known blowhard on this blog. He went awol on election night for some reason. Wonder why hmmmm
Come on England!
Jgm2 your rather chippy are you not. Last thing we need is another Englishman with an inferiority complex. Your Team were shite, with only 3 Goals scored in the entire campagne put on the worst display by a British Team at The world cup in living memory. Deal with it you bigoted little Englander. Oh and yes I see Murray is now in the semis : )
Made the mistake of reading one or two of your posts before. They’re shit.
No point repeating the experience.
Pip pip old bean.
My first paragraph was worded wrongly.
The rest stands.
So what was it; Daddy, home schooling or (if you went to school) the PE teacher?
EVERYTHING WE HOPE!!
I PRAY FOR A DAY OF TRUTH AND RECKONING> FOLLOWED BI A TRIAL OF THE GUITY!!XX
Shoot the miserable turd. Put the arse licker out of his misery. WotaHunt.
“Kenny is about as loyal as they come, an old ally reports that he openly told people he styled his hair on Gordon Brown’s while chairman of Labour Students.”
He’s got to be a wrong’un on all levels.
Especially as it was their pubic hair we are talking about.
( apologies to anybody having lunch )
Here’s Kenny
Such talent!!!!!!!
I dont get out much these days
He openly told people he styled his hair on Gordon Browns…………..LOL!
Really?
Btw, ‘omnishambles’, what a great word.
It’s yet another one nicked from The Thick of It.
Not.
while *writing* today I spent much of it thinking about what kind of new background I would like on my Twitter page #nowaytogetabookwritten
http://twitter.com/SarahBrownUK/status/17361408803
Siberia?
Lesbos?
Axminster?
P45?
What a deep thinker she is indeed!
Poor Sarah. Suddenly she doesn’t get any invites to the celebrity rubber chicken circuit.
The phone never rings any more. No more new dresses.
All those ‘friends’. Gone. Just like that.
How sad.
Sez jgm2, who doesn’t even get a shag from his missus anymore.
Oh fuck.
You mean she’s not my missus? She certainly looks like my missus. Fuck! Are you sure? Oh fuck. My missus is going to be really pissed off if the woman I’ve been shagging isn’t my missus.
Oh fuck.
boring. do something on the new spads, and their humungous salaries, if you have to concentrate on staffers. bit low grade though. there are 600+MPs and a similar number of peers to focus on.
Wind, hydro and other renewables supplied 6½ per cent less electricity than in the same period last year, with hydro down 44 per cent as a result of less rainfall. Wind, hydro and other renewables accounted for 6 per cent of the total generation.

Yeah and look at what OfCon ain’t doing – not fit for purpose – thanks to Liebour incompetence:

Brown: “Kenny, while you’re down there……”
Kenny: “mmmm, mmmmph, mmmmph”
These are mere predules to the magnificent return of McBride!
Its only a matter of time. You fucking RACISTS!!!!
So the higlights of his life involved styling his hair like our Dear Leader and placating a pissed off pensioner.
Clearly his well of talent is yet to be tapped.
I wonder how much this utter waste of blood and organs gets paid…
“Instead of firing this inept and useless spinner he’s got a new job.”
Good, the more incompetent idiots in the Labour Party the better. Shouldn’t be difficult.
Good, the more incompetent idiots in the Labour Party the better.
I’m not sure about that. We just had 13 years of testing that theory to destruction.
All Big Wheels need a bitch and such is wee Kenny’s niche.
How about wee Bercow?

So there is a 62% chance of a war criminal who is guilty of running a torture programme winning the Labour leadership contest.
Sounds about right.
I wrote my similar comment before your’s appeared. Sorry for the duplication.
Perhaps that’s why there’s no sign of the Maximum Imbecile. He’s effectively housebound now that there’s not a constant parade of sycophants to hold doors open for him as he walks around. He just keeps bumping off the walls as he tries to find his way out of the house by trial and error.
Either that or he’s a craven yellow cur who is sulking.
“….Brown staffers….”
Says it all, really.
So David Milliband is the most likely to succeed (well, succeed Brown)? It will be interesting to hear what he has say, as leader of Labour, about the complicity of the Labour government in torture and rendition whilst he was Foreign Secretary. Won’t the brothers and sisters like that.
He’ll take a leaf out of Abbott’s Bumper Book on Debating.
‘I have nothing more to say’.
Meow! A saucer of milk for Table 1!
Phwoar! Caroline “Shagger” Nokes has her yummy cleavage on display in PMQs.
Labour are in planted question overdrive today. Even Michael Meacher, who once had principles, has joined in. The gutless Hunt.
How the flying fuck can the opposition “plant” questions? That would be known as “opposition”.
The process of planting questions involves backbench MPs on the GOVERNMENT side flooding the table office with questions inspired by the department being questioned, thereby increasing the chance of “good” questions making it through the shuffle and thereby giving the answering minister an easy time plus a good idea of the unknown supplementary questions that can be asked.
And, in in any case, that process applies to departmental question times, actual specific questions are rarely tabled for PMQs.
Ye fucknugget.
I’ll be back…
…to collect my payslips, before returning to the Killkiddies and Cowdungbeef General Hospital.
Ed Balls will become labour’s chief gunner. And let’s face it, he’s a good campaigner who can speak in outside-25 lingo, off the cuff, with down-to-earth accent. If Whelan gets Balls a safer seat, one in which he’s less dependent on postal votes, I think Balls will prove quite a formidable campaigner.
holy smoke, forgot to touch the M-key whilst typing ‘outside-M25′
Its all good. I forgot to touch your missus up before poking her earlier. She didnt grumble.
My finger touches mine all the time…..Mmmmmmmmmmm
Labour delenda est. Oh and the Tories as well.
thats not saying much. you’d go with a pig in a wig for fucks sake.
Well any experienced press officer would have checked that their boss’s microphone was switched off after an event…
So that they could slag loyal supporters like Mrs Duffy.
Arseholes every one of ‘em.
What is this leader elections you talkings about? We do not believes in democracy. It is most unholy. Elections are for western kafirs.
