Guy News: Mock the Liar

Comedian Ed Byrne of Mock the Week fame is one of those of those extremely punchable lefties, he is also a bit of a fibber. Last night he denied ever promoting tuition fees:

They even press released it. You can’t hide those lyin’ eyes…

UPDATE: “Mr” Ed Byrne tweets: “I hold my hands up. Completely forgot about it. Apologies to David Willets”

      Will you offer a reward for grassing the puncher to the police? Or does your brave stance against violent conduct only count when CCHQ is in danger from twat students?

        Alex says:

        Bit of a difference between describing someone as punchable and actually committing a violent act – most normal people can see that, but I guess it’s unsurprising that a cretin like you would be incapable of differentiating between the two.

          • Alex says:

            Let me put it in language that you can maybe understand.

            Scenario 1: A group of people trash an office building, and one of them drops a fire extinguisher from the roof, which very nearly hits people.

            Scenario 2: A blogger makes the comment that someone who he disagrees with on many things is “extremely punchable”

            Get it now? The difference between actions and words?

            So funny that you call ME a retard and can’t tell the difference between saying something and doing something – what an ignoramus you must be.

            Any person with even the tiniest bit of brainpower knows that if they drop a heavy metal object from the roof of a multi story building, knowing full well that there’s a large group of people on the street below, there’s a pretty good chance that someone could get killed. It was pure luck no one did.

          • Alex says:

            Maybe when you’re a bit older and actually have the right to claim you are responsible for yourself rather than living off mummy and daddy you might have a bit more of a clue about the real world.

            Unlikely though, as you’re clearly a clueless little kid who thinks they know it all.

          • choice quotes from the windowlickers legal team says:

            Because throwing a heavy object from on high on to people down below shows intent to kill. The copper who whacked Tomlinson may have over exerted himself, but he did not intend to kill the guy. You see the difference? Murder is differentiated from manslaughter by intent.

            He should be done for attempted murder

            the yob who attempted to murder those below Millbank?

            Nope, he is the object of an attempted-murdering student wanker hunt.

      The Campaign will feature television and radio adverts as well as web based and podcast material. All channels will point students and their parents towards an interactive DVD providing easy to access information on the Student Finance package. The DVD features four youth celebrities, including cameos from Miquita Oliver (T4), Mark Heap (Green Wing) and comedian Ed Byrne (Mock the Week), and is presented by rising star Nick Grimshaw (E4, Radio 1).

          Although, to be entirely accurate, the betting site would also have the right to deduct the stake, and more if my bet didn’t win, but further on down the line I went on to make lots of money doing something in no way related to my initial, poorly advised bet.

          For example, if I were to bet on American Film Studies, and later in life, was to find that there was an oil well in my back garden, and paid myself £1m a year as head of my own oil refinery.

          • wannabet says:

            Indeed! But you are betting on your own future with a degree. It matters not if you find financial success within the area of study or not, but it does matter if you have received that education (which cost a hell of a lot) and then subsequently made a lot of money.

            If a potential student is NOT prepared to invest in their own future, even the ONLY requirement to do so would be from a successful and easily affordable position of later wealth, then why the hell should the tax-payers?

          • 13eastie says:

            Quite.

            What value should society ascribe to a degree, when the graduate himself is unwillingly to pay a penny for it?

          • Professor Clevercloggs says:

            It is perhaps debateable 13eastie what the benefits of degrees are period.
            Clearly if someone is headed for academia then specific subject study at degree level is appropriate but when you see the types of degrees taken related to evental career chosen evidently subject matter is often very far from useful.

            In my humble experience running very large businesses over 40 years I have employed thousands of gradates… some were incredibly intelligent but completely incapable of applying themselves to even the most simple of tasks..others were the complete deal…but I would suggest regardless of their further education achievements they had what it took to be successful regardless.

            In many ways someone who is well schooled in english …has a rounded general knowledge and a hunger to get on is preferable any day to a graduate…many people’s minds develop without the necessity of degree education.

      Last night Willetts did offer one alternative – in the old days of funded Uni places only 1 in 10 went to Uni, now it is 4 in 10. So we could go back to fund 1 in 10, but guess who that would be? Educated middle classes on the whole.

        jgm2 says:

        The educated middle classes are still going to university. More to the point, still going to proper universities and not some re-badged adult literacy college in Dagenham.

        And the educated middle classes are still monopolising all the good graduate jobs. It’s the unsophisticated working class students who’ve been awarded a sheaf of A*s merely for showing up regularly who are content to get 25K into debt for a comedy certificate from some rebadged catering college. And then whine that there are no graduate jobs for intellectuals of their calibre.

        Weird though that it is only now that they’ve realised that the ‘education’ they’re getting is worth fuck all.

        Let’s face it, if you thought investing 30K would result in a decent job and lifestyle then you wouldn’t bat an eyelid. Just the cost of a mid range BMW. Most people’s houses were making that kind of money every year from 1997 – 2006. Fucking peanuts in the broad scheme of things.

        Unless the degrees are fucking worthless.

          In those days, a man having a trade was respected for it. Skill was hard-won, and that was generally accepted. Unfortunately, the message now sent is that unless you have a degree, you are a second-class citizen. That’s complete boloney, but none the less that’s the perception. Skill is still hard-won, but all too often it isn’t respected; a perception not helped by the lackadaisical approach to customer service of some (not all) home-produced tradesmen.

          Folk walking the (clean) streets not only keeps down crime but makes for a better and safer neigborhood; not to mention helthier people.

            Yeah, but your shopping is so much cheaper and Supermarkets are much more convenient.

            Which is the two things that shoppers want most.

            The sad fact of the matter is, a ‘nostalgic return to a bygone age’ does not rank very highly on the list of shoppers needs or wants.

            Although I would prefer it if supermarkets did not get councils to waive the planning permission regulations and business rates to get more and bigger shops. Make them compete more fairly with small independents.

          Fully agree Mr Plum. I wish I could go back and serve an apprenticeship instead of having wasted my time at “college” (a former crappy polytechnic) doing an HND in a “Fucking Useless in the Real World Social Sciences” type course . It was worth fuck all when I started looking for work and ended up having to start at the bottom rung of my chosen field anyway, along with school leavers.

          My brothers however, did get trades (mechanics) and make a fortune doing off-the-books homers in the evenings and weekends. Therefore have no fear of redundancy as they will always be able to earn. Not to mention not having most work around the house done by mates as a trade off for freebie car servicing etc.

        One is the cost of doing the course, forcing the student to weigh up whether the course will benefit their pay (and thus the country)
        The other is a punishment for using the skills learnt.

          • Mr Plum says:

            The graduate tax seems to have an element of spite about it, punishing you for being successful is this what they mean by progressive.
            Why do most people seem happy to take a communist approach to education, you would not take the same approach in sport, where we reward success and skill. Giving everyone the same chances regardless of ability on a limited budget will never work.

          • AC1 says:

            It’s not the same. FFS are you stupid?

            When you’ve paid the fees, do you stop paying the graduate tax?

          • misterned says:

            It is the reverse in practise and is NOT progressive.

            With the current proposed system, the graduate enters a binding agreement to repay a loan, IF they ever become rich.

            Meaning that only the rich repay a fixed amount of the direct cost of the education they themselves received. The poor pay nothing. Those in-between pay a percentage of that cost.

            Whereas under the graduate tax system, all graduates who earn money will have to repay, even the poor ones, for so long as they are earning money. Except the rich who can afford to move abroad and avoid repaying altogether.

            SO labour want the poorest to pay, whereas the coalition want the richest to pay.

          misterned says:

          What would happen then, (and not unfairly) is that only the brightest would succeed to go to university (as it should be).

          The reason being is that the middle classes are not only wealthier, but by and large they have earned that wealth through being a bit more intelligent. That intelligence is passed on genetically and through nurture in childhood by encouragement from parents to work hard and do their best.

          However, the lazy and stupid left wingers would claim that it is entirely down to financial factors and claim (wrongly) that it is only the richest who are allowed to go to university.

          They cannot grasp the fact that most left wing poor people are poor because they are thick. Not because they are discriminated against by rich people.

            > They cannot grasp the fact that most left wing poor people are poor because they are thick

            I wouldn’t agree. I would say ignorant and have some very negative habits with regard to taking control of their lives (thanks welfare state).

            I did meet some enormously thick people at uni.

          • misterned says:

            Ignorant would mean an intelligent person who is unaware of something, but who is entirely capable of grasping concepts when they are explained to them.

            Poor lefties, by and large, are too thick to grasp concepts when they are explained in very plain and simple terms.

            Just like the left wing socialist students who are still claiming that they cannot find 9k per year, when they DO NOT NEED TO!

            When I am told that I do not need to pay something, then that is a concept I grasp VERY quickly.

            They cannot understand the concept of poor pay less and rich pay more and they claim to be socialists. Yet that is what they are rioting about!

            That is not ignorance. That is braindead thicky stupid gittishness of the most retarded kind.

    Howard Flight is ‘throwback to worst of 1980′s politics’Commenting on comments made today (Thursday) by newly-appointed peer Howard Flight that the government’s child benefit cuts give the poor more incentive to have children than the better-off, Political blogger,Guido said:

    ‘Howard Flight has shown himself to be an insensitive throwback to the worst of 1980s politics within days of being made a peer by the Prime Minister.

    ‘This is exactly the kind of remark that leads to political parties being thought of as nasty, and shows just how shockingly out of touch with the lives of ordinary low and middle income people some supporters of this government can be

      Despite being wholly correct that paying the poor more to have children will result in the poor having more children, labour supporters react with horror to the obviousness of this truth!

      The poor having ever more children means a greater burden on the state and on tax-payers at a time when thanks to labour’s incompetence, greed and idiocy, Labour ran up a deficit the size of a Black Wednesday every week and we cannot afford it anymore.

      What Howard Flight said is NOT nice, or comforting, or tactful, but it is the truth.

    Jamaicaη minorities in the UK have complained that there are not enough television shows with minorities in mind, so Crimewatch is being shown 5 times a week now.

    I just saw my first Harry Potter film. A bit unrealistic if you ask me. I mean, a ginger haired kid, with two friends?

    I had a mate who was suicidal. He was really depressed, so I pushed him in front of a steam train. He was chuffed to bits.

    I was reading in the paper today about this dwarf that got pick pocketed.
    How could anyone stoop so low.

It’s classic left hypocrisy: it’s only right if we’re the ones doing it. If the Tories had been in power in 2003, does anyone believe a single Labour MP would have voted to invade Iraq? Of course not. They’d have called for a vote of no confidence and for the Tory leader to be tried for war crimes. Labour was at one time a principled party, whether you agreed with it or not. It’s mutated into the most criminally corrupt, morally bankrupt and opportunistic outfit for a bunch of congenitally deceitful and greedy crooks. Cancer would be too good for them.
