Sunday Times Runners and Riders
There is no denying that the Sunday Times Political Editor’s job is much coveted. Since the news that Jonathon Oliver was heading to spin-land, there have been all sorts of rumours flying around of hats in rings and silent campaigns. Names that have come across Guido’s desk include The Guardian’s Nick Watt (denied from the beach) The Times’s Sam Coates, the Standard’s senior and junior, Joe Murphy and Paul Waugh (denied flatly, though Waugh said it was “nice to be thought worthy of such a plum job”) Guido wasn’t expecting any other response…

Word is that current Deputy Political Editor Isabel Oakeshott is digging in and has her heart set on the job. She’s had a successful run of scoops and ghosted former Labour Party General Secretary Peter Watt’s grenade of a book before the election. An insider says she is greatly respected Wapping way….














Gissa job, I can do that.
uaf uaf
No not fucking dog back,is this because of that twat Tim Lovejoy.
aint the times going to fold ?
No, they sold a subscription this morning.
Hi , My names Tim Lovejoy and i am a BBC legend who is not in the running.
You’re just a boring bellend whose posts rival those of Fartin Martin Day for their inanity, predictability and rodomontade.
Be gone !! Vanish in a poof of smoke.
Rodomontade – googled.
Ta.
yes. But thats got to be a word that would get you punched in 90% of the pubs of britain.
was you that bloke wot sells antiques and parafanalia a few years back on the telly?
why do folk say you are an eduacated monkey charles?
Waugh gets my vote. Though I don’t actually have one …
are they using the AV system?

A warning about the next economic crisis
You really are a retard of epic proportions Martin.
When is your mum taking you shopping for your new school uniform?
Fartin Martin has predicted 37 of the last two economic ‘crises’.
Correction
“Intergalactic proportions”
And a good evening to you, Sir
Who’ll give me a price on our host?
A price on his head, or on his blog?
A pint of Guinness and a copy of the Cork Evening Echo?
he’s a Dubliner
Not all Dubliners go to Dublin for their beach holidays.
He’s as much from Dublin as i am from Cobh.
Begorrah! You are one as well? (OK at a distance.) I should have guessed! Enough clues. (Goes for my alter ego as well.)
It would be a Murphy’s in Cork.
Blimey! I’ve opened up one here. Yes I have been there twice and had to drink Murphys myself. Prefer Guinness though. Can’t see Him doing the Liffey swim nor Dun Laoghaire harbour.
He’ll float!
Dublin is a good bet for a thrashing drink,use your paddy wikipedia on that,Cork is food,lovely food,great sea scapes,cultured to the nuts,historical enough to please a pedant and the polish locals are well fit,hi alecsxxxxxxxxx
And Mr non-Prius, you can ring the chuch bells there without having to ask anyone. I have done it myself. Would think they would get sick of the noise?
Does anyone read the times ?
Good question. Answers on the back of a postage stamp please.
I don’t any more.
Pay attention, Mental. He said Sunday Times – the bit with the rugby reports and property porn etc. Arguably the only effort from the msm still worth buying.
“Alongside the crisps and cheap wine she enthused that, after a texting poll of 10,000 supporters, she was on 42% and Ken was on 35%……” (TotalPolitics)
there’s no wonder Oona’s failing , cheap wine , outrageous
An man is on an aeroplane and sat next to an Irishman when there is a announcement on the speaker from the Captain:
“Hello, i’m afraid one of our four engines has failed and we will have to fly for an extra hour”,
10 minutes later there is another announcement:
“Hello, i’m afraid our second engine has failed and we will have to fly for an extra two hours”,
20 minutes later, another announcement,
“Hello, i’m afraid our third engine has failed and we only have one engine remaining will have to fly for an extra five hours”,
The Irishman turns to the man next to him and says,
“Well lets hope the last engine doesn’t fail, we’ll be up here all bloody night!”
But my friend Guido is always up “there” all bloody night…
That is the strength of the bugger…
Wow God I had this bloke called Voltaire at the bottom of my blog the other thursday……..would you adam and eve it?
chris is you irish? i is!
An Irish pilot was contacted by air traffic control and was asked: Please state your height and position”. he replied: “I’m 6ft 2 and sitting in the front”.
“She’s had a successful run of scoops ”
How would those of us who dont subsricbe know this to be true ?
Perhaps it’s poop scoops ??
And… “An insider says she is greatly respected Wapping Way….”
Is that a coded journalistic description of a sexually deviant act?
I need a job , I think i will apply .
Your job is to bring up your wife’s children.
God have mercy on their souls.
Your job is to scoopie Gordo’s jobbies
After all he did with you…
That will take YEARS Dolly…Hello Dolly..and to your lovely non-celebrity seeking wifey…
I would be perect for that job .
Your typing and spelling skills suggest that you may be better employed at the Grauniad.
I remember the Sunday Times. It used to be a newspaper.
I thought the Times readership was down? Maybe it was just a rumour.
Who? Who are these people?
Give me the job.
Since the readership of the Times is down we feel is it our duty to use our funds to mass subscribe so it can suvive .
Before we cut your £ 3.5 billion subsidy and then privatise you, you biased mother f’ckers…
I like that beautiful posing man Waugh
But is he for real ?
Didn’t Guido say he’s Bad Al’s best mate?
I fucking urges you to take Cristals Meff, right fucking now.
These pricks make a lot more sense when you’ve used Cristals Meff anyways, specially the filth Tory boy Waugh.
Stop writing for The Guardian you self promoting vacuous Huhnewaft.
Calm down and don’t be rude about my good friend Waugh…
I know that he trades on the family name and that his literary skills are zero.
But he has a sense of humour which is more than the rest of the Dead Tree Press put together…
He does, however, have two problems..
It is difficult for any serious journalist to work for the ex-KGBeesties…
And he has the same eyelash artiste as Andy Burnham…
Isnt the one on the end Harry Potter?
“greatly respected Wapping way”.so she’s a fucking devious shit who spins the news
Hear hear!
I abolished Boom and Bust, let’s be clear about that.
I also saved the World; without me this planet would have disappeared from the cosmos.
I love this video of the freak, I never listen to the sound anymore, can’t bear the loons rantings. I just watch the body language, facial ticks and the micro mood swings as the madman tries to tell himself what his appropriate facial expression should be. Of course his insanity keeps on tricking him into the wrong ones, forcing him to over correct, back and forth. McRuin is insane, utterly insane.
There’s nothing odd about my smile.
Isnt the one on the end H***y Potter ?
Why didn’t this work you bastard Pikey?
I simply pasted the embed code from JooTube
paste the address url.
You don’t need to paste the embed code, just the web address, then press preview to check it’ll work.
A corking bit of advice folks
We should organise a cyber attack on the BBC
To put them out of their cokehead, rentboy, suicidal, arrogant, narcissistic misery for ever…
I’m very good at writing and I’m Prime Minister. When the time comes to accept the thanks of a grateful country, I think I’ll apply, it’ll be a nice soft job when the honours are showered on me after my retirement,
I like nice soft jobs.
You’ve got the Right Stuff. Or is that brown stuff?
charlie is me darling me darling me darling.
Are they my tits at the side there?
LOL!
Guido
As we know, Rupert’s idea of applying a paywall is only an excuse for merging the two loss-making papers, the Times and the Sunday Times
Before I came to this blog, you spoke of the dead tree press…
Both these papers form part of it…
Jostling for “political” positions in the upper reaches of a doomed business seems to me to be a strange activity…
Yesterday’s people (who did nothing compared with you to denounce the corrupt, criminal activities of New Labour) of the Times and Sunday Times seem to be as lost in this new, post-Marxist and libertarian world as the Great Leader Ceaucescu was when the People howled at him on that famous afteroon…
That being said, I do like that pristine Englsh face and track record of Isabel Oakeshott..
She should start a blog…at least…
We do important stuff like this dontcha know?

have you seen the walk on her.I could happily spend a night hitting her with a dumb bell.
In a post democratic society, it’s the job of the press and TV to keep the plebs in the dark.
A diet of mindless celeb trivial, sport and entertainment news does the trick.
The religion of piss strikes again! They love the piss! They are the most piss loving people in the world, just like their piss loving pedo Moo-ham-mad. Alan akbar!
That could be Britain in 30 years. Native Britons are already seen as the ‘occupiers’ in their own country in certain parts of Britain.
I will make a statement to the house about this on Friday
I will make a statement about this topic on Friday to the house .
But how will you get out of the straitjacket first?
To the house, I will comment make, on Friday about this…I think.
I was set upon by three muggers in an alley last night but I did manage to knock one out.
I know it wasn’t the best time for a wank but it could have been my last.

A spate of alleged Gary Glitter sightings in the Kent village of Seabrook has prompted a local politician to issue a public warning.
“I heard he had been seen in a bar, but I don’t know any more than that,” said Keren Belcourt, the mayor of nearby market town Hythe.
curious why a commenter mentioned Lord Mountbatten I went hunting.

I came up with a new bivy device just now, para cord, a karabiner and some well tied knots It takes less space than bungee cord and weighs about as much as a mouse
Still ,its far more interesting than reading about this f ucking w ank

Does Rupert decide who gets the job?
Or is not that important?
Rupert is no longer at the helm,its his son.
Does compliment her on here give you future inside scoops?
Nicely played that man.
Good for her that is one in the bag for women
