Shock: Blair Knew Brown Was Bonkers

As The Journey hits the bookshelves, the truth about the TB/GBs is seeping out. Gordon was “maddening”, drove Blair to drink and he apparently always knew the nutter next door would be a dreadful Prime Minister. Nice of him to tell us this at the time, and during the election.

Hacks are queuing up to say “I told you so”, except that they didn’t, until it was too late. Even Nick Robinson is having a go:

“Some said it was tittle tattle, others that it was speculation, a few dared to suggest that it was fabrication. I now accept that I made mistakes. Things were worse – much worse – than I reflected at the time.”

Nice to see he was toeing the line as ever – “I did not report then but now can…”

The Tories will make hay of the endorsement for their economic policy. The fact that Gordon had actually theatened to unleash the Cash for Honours storm in a row over policy has confirmed long held suspicions that the dark arts were used there. In the mean time Guido is going to keep reading…

      Hi Guys……glad that Princess Hague is off-headline right now and I’m back!

      Drinks All Round! (whoops, sorry guys but I’m a bit of a lush, apologies to Islam but I do like a bit of the medicine but I didn’t really understand that before 9/11) and I do have a soft spot for Big Bad Al’s Big Balls) and then a tour of all my favourite studios, manned by Labour Stooges. A tough interview with Labour Luvvie Marr…where is Baroness Fiona Phillips and the GMTV sofa when you need it?

      600,000 Iraqis killed? No, surely shome mistake? Got that wrong. Gee, shucks! Never mind. 10 Hail Mary’s and my faith will make it all go away. Yeah right!

      As for Gordon…..well, I started to get worried when he sat eating flies in Cabinet meetings….and his minders would only let him use crayons…….

      As for my Great Legacy…..I just bottled out on the Great Reforms. Only passed 300 laws a week…..gosh!

      Notice that NULab Mirror and the Comrades at the FT want Silly Bland to herald the Great New Age of Socialism. Bribery still pays off!

        The Interviewer points out that Scottish Labour were not interested in the education and health reforms introduced in England but that didn’t stop them rushing down to Westminster to push them through in England, hence English Students pay tuition fees and Scottish one don’t. Typical socialist hypocrits.

      Sir Barrington Minge says:

      So Bliar knew that Brown was going to be a complete disaster.

      That speaks volumes about Bliar’s competance as well. If he knew Brown would screw up why did he not stop him ever becoming Prime Minister?

      That alone prevents Bliar from ever being considered a great PM.

      Dick the Prick says:

      Blair’s main problem was not sacking Brown straight after the 2001 election. The blackmail campaign organized by Brown over the cash for coronets imbroglio is quite illuminating in that Brown used Mr Harriet Harman as a willing lap-dog and Blair let it happen.

      Brown burnt the money, Brown failed to control public service expansion, Brown failed to understand economics, Brown created the benefit & client state culture.

      Sure, Blair was an odious, sociopathic idiot but the difference is that muppets we all know voted for him. Brown had no mandate, ever, and the fact that he’s bonkers just makes it worse.

      On Blunketts resignation Blair stated he left with his “integrity intact”. This was in reference to a man who had been caught shagging another mans wife and who may have got her up the duff and who stole travel warrants for her . Now if Blair thinks that justifies the phrase “Integrity intact” then you cannot trust him on anything since his definitions of words are the polar opposite of what they actually mean.

        You have to ask yourself why people voted for them and why the Tories failed so miserably to offer a real alternative. The three victories were more about Tory failure than ZaNu success. Why even Cameron almost managed to throw a 17 point lead and certain victory, for a scrambled coalition. Could the conservative party leadership itself, not want a conservative government with a healthy mandate?

          With all the coverage on the BBC prior to and during the election which was pro Liebour that may have encouraged sheeple to vote for them together with the boundaries in Liebour’s Cavour you might have your answer.

          Well if you believe Mandelson then Osborne confided to him that they wished “to purge the conservatives of its Thatcherite poison!” . If David Milliband crossed the floor would he be out of place in Cameron’s Conservatives? I don’t think so and that’s the problem – the Tories aren’t Tories.

        • 320
          Blue Lady says:

          The Conservative party did get a healthy mandate, convincingly in England (and 1m more votes overall than Blair in 2005). The problem is England has to settle for the Government the whole UK chooses whereas Scotland, Wales and N.I. get the party of their choosing. These three countries, unlike England, all get to vote twice, once for a Parliament/Assembly which represents their own interests and their’s alone and then they vote for the UK Parliament even though 70% of the time, the UK Government is only governing England. Thanks to Labour, there is no England, only Britain. When Gordon Brown and senior Scottish Labour Ministers made laws on health, education, transport, law and order etc., it was only in England and the English had no way of voting them out. They had no say over these things in their own Scottish constituencies. The Tories had a 62 seat majority in England and yet we nearly ended up with a LabLib coalition aided and abetted by the Nats. The Labour Government treated England with contempt and until we get the same equal status as the rest of the UK, i.e. our own Parliament, then England can never be sure of getting the party it votes for.

      Hugh Janus says:

      And the great steaming heap of manure that is NuLiebour is desperate to get back into power – presumably to dish out more of the same. Bliar, McBust, Mendeslime et all should now be facing criminal charges for their conduct and what they did to this nation. When I see them on TV (thankfully infrequently now) or even hear mention of their names, I have an overwhelming urge to vomit copiously.

      I hope that history will record their wilful neglect and incompetence, so that generations to come will know just what we had to suffer under their 13 years of misrule, and why those same generations will ‘enjoy’ a significantly lower standard of living thanks to their crass stupidity and profligacy. Their very names should be reviled by all sensible people.

          KGB moles?

          Probably not – though their dash for gas in the late 90s did overexpose us to Russian influence, its main aim was to facilitate the rise of the Enrons and the like, which titillated the aspirational Blair and looked like tax receipts to the avaricious Brown.

          Letting Berezovsky and his mates hide out here probably wasn’t in the KGB script either, but Labour loves an oligarch, as Lord Fondlebum of Bouys will tell you.

          No – New Liebour was a mixture of the vainglorious, the sociopathic, the sycophantic and the herd, and 13 years of that would kill an empire, let alone a country.

    Breathtaking. Gobsmacking. Showstopping. This from ‘The Man’ (Mullins) who would out-Pope the Pope! The Man who can never be too rich or too right.

    Britain’s most notable export is sooooooooooo far from any trace of self-awareness, that he can ‘see Brown as others see HIM’ and yet(appear to) have no inkling. Britain made him – Britons elevated him – now the world must endure him.

    It should be noted that Blair admits to putting personal and party interests before the interests of the country. He would not sack Brown, even though he knew that he was a disaster, because it may have made life a bit difficult for him and his party. Just shows what a selfish, greedy skumbag he is.

      Mr Pump – please show me ONE god-botherer who ISN”T a raving lunatic. I do accept they’re not all as evil and slimy as Bliar, but, as the estimable Richard Dawkins demonstrates in his brilliant The God Delusion, even the BIBLE undermines the traditional view of christianity that’s been rammed down our throats for the last five or six generations. The fact that Bliar grasps at religion suggests the horror of the blood-letting in Iraq finally penetrated his perma-tanned skull and he needs a comfort blanket. That he grabbed for Rome, with its institutionalised child buggery and financial hypocrisy, says plenty about his inability to resist his nauseating, repellent wife and her baleful influence.

        Rammed down your throat? So the local vicar knocks on your door every three days to harangue you about religion does he? What is rammed down your (and everyone else’s) throat is marketing, dodgy politics and someone trying to screw money out of the unsuspecting.

        Rammed down your throat? How come five year olds know the plot of ‘Finding Nemo’ down to the last detail but have to be told what Christmas is?

        Rammed down your throat? Easter should be renamed DIY weekend. There are more adverts on TV for B&Q on Maunday Thursday than people saying that you should go to church. OK matey, do away with religion and work on Sunday for single time. Christmas? Nah, just keep working as usual, who needs ten days to eat, drink and spend too much?

        If Phoney Tony had held to the ten commandments we would not be in the soft stuff today. Unless of course Dawkins has his own set of moral guidelines?

If you read what I said in my post, you’d note that I was referring not only to the present, but also to the historical “ramming” down our throats. I for one suffered that back in the late ’50s and early ’60s.

          Theoretically Christianity does offer guidelines on how we should behave, but when you speak to those whose lives have been destroyed by the church, as I have, then you’ll see organised, hierarchical religion for the hypocritical fraud that it is. I haven’t space for more detail here, but would be pleased to provide, er, chapter and verse if you wish!

          • I hate Tesco AND the Pope says:

            Sorry – I forgot to add that Anthony Blair is the perfect example of both the hypocritical and the fraudulent in relation, specifically, to the Roman Catholic church. It was the Roman Catholic version of ‘religion’ which figured in the two appalling incidents I know of personally. One of them featured precisely what you mentioned in your post – someone trying, and succeeding, in screwing money out of a sick, unsuspecting old lady. The item stolen was her house. You called Dawkins a charlatan. I’ll take Dawkins over the Pope and his fucking cohorts any day.

      Was there ever a likelihood that enough people were the slightest bit interested in whatever self-serving shite these jackasses have to say?

      Nope. Of course not. The ‘book-deals’ are just money laundering deals. Like Prescott being paid to lecture about global warming in China. The man who was given a staff of 2,000 to pander to his ego and whose solution to housing shortages was to okay the building of 100,000 homes on a flood plain. What a fucking moron.

      Global warming expert?

      And these payments for services rendered made by ‘publishers’ that nobody has ever heard of with balance sheets that bear no relationship to the amount of books they sell.

      It’s all money-laundering. Cash for access. Cash for services rendered. Possibly even self-authorised bungs via MI5 or MI6 front organisations. Ah, yes, Miss MoneyPenny, have ‘M’ pay me a cheque for 4 million quid via our publishing company ‘Allied Widgets Publishing’.

      What other rational explanations are there? Not one of these political auto-biographies has ever made a cent apart from, possibly, Churchill. Nobody gives a shit what these politicos have to say once they’re out of harm’s way.

    Read on any doubters

    Worries over the fragile recovery among UK manufacturers intensified today after growth slowed to a nine-month low in August.

    The Chartered Institute of Purchasing and Supply’s (CIPS) activity index, where a reading over 50 indicates growth, slipped to 54.3 last month – the lowest since last November.

    CIPS chief executive David Noble said nerves over the potential impact of deficit-busting measures was hampering sales growth.

    “The looming public sector spending cuts are keeping UK manufacturers on tenterhooks and slowing the pace of recovery,” he warned.

    The slowdown in activity was bigger than feared by the market, falling from a reading of 56.9 in July.

    It’s a shame we don’t have the Ceausescu solution in this country for the likes of Blair, Brown and Mandelson. So much more quicker and cleaner, with ultimate effectiveness.

      Blair wasn’t Faust, more like a rather weedy Frankenstein: he reanimated a stitched-together monster, then bitched and squealed when it turned on him. Diddums.

    Interesting that Bliar chose Marr for his Big Interview. Can’t help feeling that Andrew Neil would produce a much more revealing interview. So obviously, it won’t happen….

    Toenails and Jug Ears, strangers to truth, impartiality, and judgement.

    Both trusted not to ask silly questions about D notices, Brown’s mental stability or Blair’s expenses. Marr can be trusted not to ask difficult questions particularly since Blair will be aware of Jug Ears’ court injunctions re love life.

    Blair knew he was bonkers and left us (and the world to him).
    Ed and Ed knew he was bonkers and still pretended they had not lost the election and tried to do a deal with the lib dems.
    David M knew he was bonkers and had the opportunity to do something about it twice and did sod all.

    The whole Country knew he was bonkers and sod all was done about it – it is truly terrifying and this is (amongst other reasons) why I will NEVER vote Labour – champagne socialists trying to further themselves.

    Remember – ” I did not come her to not get what i’m due” vile, vile, vile.

    The BBC are fucking useless.

    Brown should have been kicked out as chancellor when he doubled the tax rate for the lowest paid and then denied it’d hurt the low-paid; that self-evidently demonstrated directly either:
    1) Brown doesn’t understand maths to the level of a 4 year old
    or:
    2) Brown’s a lying bastard who you can’t trust with anything.

    At that time, the BBC should have taken him to task over this, but they never did.

    If a tory chancellor/PM had done what Brown did, the BBC would have made sure they’d lost their job before the week was up.

    The BBC are gutless for not reporting the total insanity and mind-blowing negligence of brown (too afraid of the bully’s threats), but even if there were no threats from Brown they still wouldn’t have reported it because the alternative would have been a tory government and the BBC would rather have Pol Pot in charge than a tory.

    Personally I think the BBC should be banned and put on the list of terrorist organisations, because what they actively supported for 13 years was economic terrorism.

      And now, to top it all, the BBC have banned my blog entry on robinson’s blog which asked the simple question of why all the previous blog entries that mentioned what blair’s just mentioned had always been banned.

      The BBC (especially robinson) were constantly equating Brown with Churchill and jesus, yet all the time everyone could see that he wasn’t churchill or jesus, he was in fact an insane negligent lying evil moron, but did they report that? fuck no; instead it was reported that his towering intellect saved the world.

      fucking wankers.

    It is a wonderful thing writing memoirs when you have had years to look at what happened after your reign of incompetence. Brown was bonkers but I could not get rid of him! The Iraq war killed many people but it was necessary, honestly! etc etc etc etc. Please die Blair and then I will drink in one night more than Brown ever drove you to drink,

One scrounger tries to justify their benefits to the BBC:

‘We get the Sky Movies package because we’re stuck in the house all week – otherwise we wouldn’t have any entertainment.’
