It’s all hands to the deck as the HMS Big Society takes water below the bow. Luckily someone is tooled up, hoping to plug the hole:
What a coincidence that today after sustained attack on the BS, Mrs Cameron was out and about visiting a social breakdown charity in Reading. Apparently “it is very exciting to see a social action project so successfully bringing together different elements in the community to help young people struggling with mainstream education”. Activate the Sam Cam…

First !
Which number was she though?
2,8 and 17
Bending over for another tight screw!
Her index finger is on the sensitive part. I feel movement.
The work not properly jigged and clamped, a minor’s hand in dangerous proximity to a power tool handled by a non-certificated person, no eye-shields, no ear defenders, no protective clothing. The Safety Elf will have a field day when some lefty prod-nose files a formal complaint.
You know the whole B.S. idea is fucked when they have to wheel out the posh bint to mix with the Oiks in a lame P.R. photo-op.
She does not want to do that too often her hair will get caught up in the chuck, she would then have a bald spot, mind she could be just posing.
I taught Gordon Brown everything he knows about economics. Did you see me in the House today. I was brilliant!
No, you really weren’t. You look and sound like a detestable slimy snake that you are. You owe all of us an apology for your stupidity. Crawl back under a stone Mr Balls.
Slither, not crawl.
Sorry Ed you might have the theory, trouble is old cocker, but the practice is in the real world.
Well she is an estate kid!
Have to say I would rather see Sam Cam tooled up than Gordon’s beard any day.
She’s just said that she wants me to put my enormous tool in her box.
If you REALLY want to scrape the shit from the bottom of the barrel, look no further than the scented saint, Her Blairness. She’s detestable, and manipulative, and shrill, and supported evil in human form, namely her equally loathesome husband, but she CAN chew a corn on the cob lengthwise. Not many people can do that.
She went to Seafield! Enough said.
The hoodie kid is clearly immature. Had he been slightly more on the ball, he would have taken his fingers away from the drill bit (probably covered her hand with his, just to cop a feel and be a bit in control), and be staring at her tits, jiggling away ever so gently.
I know I would.
A New broom sweeps clean.
Good to see that Sam is prepared to help white kids. Labour would never have done that, they always used a black or Asian kid in their PR stunts.
This is just unheard of. For the last 13 years we have never seen a politician or their spouse photographed without an ethnic kid in the foreground.
Is it OK to be white again? I emigrated out of shame for my colour.
Actually, I don’t wan’t to come back – except for a visit.
Well it feels that way. White is the new black.
Probably Polish or something …
Prosecute Prosecute Prosecute.
Sam and the Sprog ain’t wearing goggles.
The Sprog ain’t wearing Chain Mail gloves.
The Observer in the background is NOT wearing a hard hat.
Sam is not dressed in a Kevlar frock.
I think we have enough evidence here to bang the three of them up for life.
They all should be wearing dust masks.
Sam’s hair should be tied up in a bun.
The sprog should not be wearing a bracelet.
Looks like they is all exposed to Live wood glue fumes too!!!!!
The young fellow being so helpful has a hospital identifier strapped to his right wrist . Probably just had his adenoids done and is still under under the influence of anaesthetic. Poor chap- typical of the media and the Tories to exploit him at a vulnerable moment. I hope he survives the experience.
Which is more than can be said of the mad driller.
Yes all well and good you health and safety experts but you are missing the real crime. There aren’t any ethnics in the photo.
I’d drill her myself. Ding dong …..
Should have gone to specksavers!!
Talking of being banged up for life…
Looks like alleged rapist Julian Assange is trying to get off on a
technicality.
Either he’s got something to hide or he’s a spinless c*nt.
Call me simple, but how is having consensual sex without wearing a rubber Johnny Rape?
Sweden
Got to say even before this Health an safety shit came out. As an apprentice in the seventies we had to never wear jewelry, never wear loose clothing, always wear eye protection, always have short hair and never operate a machine with others in the vicinity not similarly protected.
And the biggest NO NO was to scratch our balls with hands covered in Lathe cutting fluid.
Having said that I would expect the piccy was posed.
Sarah Brown often had a “Tool” in her hand! Oh, wait, that was her husband!!
I would!!
Agreed, Billy. In case others need persuading:
http://www.ethical-hedonist.com/?p=42
I mean, would you rather have Sarah of Canterbury? Yvette Balls?
Sorry chief, I’m the wrong Gender for either of those…
Ahhh. nicer dreams tonight.
But who donates to that charity then?
Taxpayer ?
yes. I was wondering. That would be quite an incredible own goal.
So I must be wrong because Dave’s machine would not allow such a thing to happen because they aren’t that bloody useless.
‘Who donates’
Well a quick trawl over at the Charity Commission reveals that 6% of it’s income is by way of private donation, 34% from fees they charge, 41% direct government grant and the remainder from what they describe as ‘sustainable sources’ whatever that means.
Wierder. So who pays that 34% of fees? Schools?
Jeez, they’re certainly talking the talk when it comes to NuLab speak – ‘social action project’ ffs, “community”, social justice, progressive, fairness. Can these c*u*n*ts speak a language I understand.
Anyway, far from me to crab all this but it is nice to see Sam Cam helping a scrote to build a kennel for the mange ridden cur that’ll accompany him when he starts selling the Big Issue.
He wouldn’t get a job selling the big issue unless he’s a Rumainian woman around our way.
it’s just nice to see her bent over – and Dave’s flaccid cock nowhere to be seen
I would drill her box if she wants.
I’m sure the invitation’s in the post.
Yes along with a dozen or so from the Squeakers wife
No-Ball
The letter postmarked “Brussels” is from Baroness Ashton.
Enjoy!
No-Ball Final warning
>>> Reaches for mindbleach
That’s just sick. My tea is now severely jeopardised.
I hope she didn’t get her hair stuck in that kid’s chuck. Could’ve scalped her!
That photo should give an elf’n'safety person the collywobbles. Loose hair, no goggles and the kid with his finger on the drillbit.
What are the odds?
|This is utterly nauseating. It is like government by Magic Roundabout.
Compared to Brown, Campbell, Mcbride, Balls etc?
We’re all in it together!
Zzzzzzzzzzz…………….
Surely preferable to government by Nightmare on Brown Street.
Nice bit, chuck !!
Sally has gone for a screw.

Thanks, you just turned out my lights!
Sal-ee has gawn four a scroo
it would be OK if she didn’t have to have her face quite so near to the drill.
Clearly the young man shouldn’t permit her to do any drilling like that. I mean, by comparison blind people are perfectly capable of crossing any road on their own.
Her young victim also appears to have his fingers within a mm or two of the (spinning?) drill bit.
That teenager is either as thick as a brick, or trusts her a lot, or the drill’s battery is as flat as a fluke. Still, never mind, no doubt there’s a Big Society first aid kit to hand.
I hadn’t noticed that (fingers almost touching the drill bit).
I personally don’t like the look of the supervising adult, with wierd sweatshirt and odd staîns on his jeans.
Not a drill bit, she’s securing a fastener, thought Engineer would have noticed that..
That T-shirt is showing a photo of his probation officer, mate.
Three serious HSE fails there: no eye protection; the daft kid steering the bit with his fingers, not even with gloves and that bint with her long hair flowing everywhere. And I suppose you could add the supervisor on the right, not stopping the job.
The supervisor of the country isn’t even starting his job.
But what a grip!
Nut screws washer and bolts!
I hope that is Balls coffin they are building. It can’t be Sally Bercow’s. It would be Y shaped.
Ha ha ha…
Applause!!
Looks like it might be big enough for her husband though.
MILF!
Quite agree, Billy. I saw those photos of her modelling dresses and TBH she looked too forced and uncomfortable to be sexy. This one though…
Must up the meds, or climb aboard the old trout later on tonight. Not sure which is less appealing.
Under a Labour Govt she’d be done for elf n safety. Using a power tool without a safety helmet
No goggles either. Long hair. Kid with no goggles or safety gloves.
It’s an accident waiting to happen.
That’s it three minutes to five. I’m off.
I’ll do a ‘STOP’ card in the morning
Piss off, you’re fired.
Mr. Naughtie on line 1 for you!
Gloves and drill bits do not mix. He’s just too close.
HSE will close the place down ,FFS fancy letting that one go through as a pr picture,kids,drills,long hair,and using your fingers to hold the bit,sometimes I wonder but then I think what the hell,another ambulance chaser gets his payday by getting his own taxmoney back as compo.
Is she making the gallows for Gordon and his gang so that they can be hung ?
No such luck Billy. This is a mere (and very empty) photo op, nothing more nothing less.
As Dave meets the Hoff, Sam has to look interested whilst doing woodwork
She can work my wood
how many health & safety laws can one person break in an afternoon
Proper use of the hand drill requires that the user focus on the task without distraction. Hand drills are hazardous tools that can cause injury if one fails to utilize the drill correctly. Drill at a slow and steady pace. Allow the tool to do the work by minimizing added pressure. Pushing the hand drill too hard can result in injury if the drill breaks and you lose control of your grip. Wallowing, or moving the drill side to side, is strongly discouraged because it can cause the drill to break.
Do not attempt to reach underneath or around the items being drilled. Never use a hand to stabilize the piece being drilled because it is not strong enough to hold on if the drill catches. Refrain from lifting the hand drill by its cord. Do not operate the drill in damp or wet spaces. Place the drill and drill parts back into their boxes and containers when finished. Refrain from leaving hand drills on tables or on the floor. Clean up debris from drilling as soon as you complete your task.
Working with a power drill requires safety wear to prevent shards of wood, metal or other harmful debris from causing injury to the face or other parts of the body. Wearing loose-fitting clothing or gloves is strongly discouraged, because the drill can easily snag or catch on material. Safety goggles should be worn all times to prevent shards of wood or metal from hitting the eyes. Wear ear plugs if drilling is too loud.
I would have to discipline SC for behaving in such a foolhardy manner
Send her to see me afterwards in my quiet secluded office.
Do not pass GO. Do not collect £200.
I must remember all this…… when I’m fucking dead
Good grief, you’re a barrel of laughs, aren’t you? Do you do a full risk assessment before brushing your teeth?
It’s a battery drill, and a small one at that. Might give you a nasty nip needing a plaster stuck over it, but that’s about all. It isn’t a 6′ radial arm drill.
Risk assesment: Would you rather have a power tool in the hands of someone who probably has never done any DIY ever, or a yoof in a “social breakdown charity”
Actually, in that photo, what happens if the drill bit breaks? Its fairly likely by the looks of things, and the lad gets a drill bit straight through the finger?
It’s unlikely, she’s not drilling through steel. Looks like chipboard. You could shout your way through it.
Or into an eye. It happened to a friend of mine.
You can imagine the damages she’d get stung for by the kid’s parents, and I doubt insurance would cover her.
What happens if the drill bit breaks? They’ll have to get another one. Another 10p down the swanee.
Erm … I’ve done it. (In the first week of having a battery powered drill your honour) All you have to do is change the angle you are drilling at half way through.
Well you might snap the drill but since the business end is now in wood the worst you’ll do is stick the other half through his finger. No loss of sight necessary.
Anyway, this will be a ‘staged’ photo. No evidence at all the bit was actually turning at the time. Looking at the switch on top – which presumably shows direction the bit is turning it looks to be at the back which would suggest the drill is on its way out. No pressure at all, bit unlikely to snap.
It could be a B&Q drill bit. They’re liable to break if you drill through thin air.
Get her one of these. It’ll hold the drill bit square at all times.
Actually she is breaking a lot of health and safety regulations and putting a young ( untrained? ) person at risk.
She clearly has undertaken no training, taken no risk assessment and is ignoring her duty of care both towards herself and the youngster.
When a multi-millionaire bimbo like Sam Cam involve herself in such cheesy, patronising shite, they should at least do a little homework on the task at hand, while the chauffeur drives her between photo shoots.
That looks cool. Do they do one with a laser beam?
jgm2 -you say about it being in reverse – so actually she might just be taking a screw out, no drill bit in the picture at all!
But that would be boring. No pun intended.
WE WANT TO CONTROL EVERY ASPECT OF YOUR LIVES.
You tried that once, now Fuck Off.
sockpuppet #4,Iam daft enough to use Irfanview and magnified the lad is holding a screw while madam is screwing it into the wood or should that be pretending for the camera.
Ah yes, but it’s all about them doing as they say.
There should have been hairnets, helmets, goggles, gloves and breathing apparatus because of the mdf dust and tetanus injections in case of scratches.
Are she and the kid insured for doing this kind of thing? Is she qualified?
There should also be all manner of warning signs. They are clearly manufacturing something so what about the tax implications?
I forgot the trained first aider on standby.
Engineer, you can’t defend that. At the least it could take the tips of the kid’s fingers off. A few woodchips in the eye?
Are you a proper engineer, or a PC bound carpet-dweller?
Oh, for God’s sake, get a sense of proportion. It’s a bog standard DIY type battery drill. Do you wear a suit of armour when do a bit of routine household maintenance? If it was an industrial machine tool (see Youtube clip above) then a risk assessment and use of suitable Personal Protective Equipment would be in order.
Agree with you Engineer… the only two things we had to watch out for when operating a post drill and lathe – in both woodwork and metalwork classes – at Grammar School in the early ’60s was to roll our shirt sleeves up and tuck our ties into our shirts a couple of buttons down from the collar. Oh, and chemistry lessons with goggles? Do me a favour… it was a boys, not a girls school!
What, no compulsory apron Mr Doff?
Ours must have been a right sissy school. And we got health & safety advice from the metalwork teacher.
It was limited to the fable that, when he was a lad, his school’s metalwork shop had a human scalp mounted in a glass case on the wall nearest to the lathes.
Mr Doff, In my 1960s boys’ (grammar) school, our chemistry master was a real Scottish prick. We were doing the boiling point of water experiment one day, but he had forgotten to put a cork with a steam outlet in the mouth of the test tube. One lad who put his hand up to remind him of this was told to shut up and watch what the thermometer was doing. Glass went all over the classroom when the tube blew up, but being British bulldogs we just fell about laughing at his stupidity. Them was the days my friend. Pity they had to end.
Isn’t amazing how, not so many years ago, we English were admired and respected across the World for our bulldog spirit.
After all the social engineering from all the left wing, right-on socialist nannies we are now scared of our own shadows.
Your post is stressing me out, get me a lawyer.
Nah, using it to our advantage,by taking the piss,this mob here know how to do a windup and participate in the same.
Don’t wipe your arse with a broken bottle.
Don’t knock it ’til you’ve tried it.
Fuck me. A whole section showing why we, as country, no longer thinks for itself and looks to the state for advice on what to do. It ‘aint a factory, it’s a battery drill, it’s soft wood. It’s 100% supervised. The kid ‘aint in control. Sam is all growed up. The kids at greater risk of his teacher pushing out of school to join a fucking anti-cuts demo.
But have they filled out the right risk analysis forms? The job just isn’t done right unless the forms are filled in. Have you taken a 15 minute break from the monitor to allow your eyes to rest?
And lo it comes to pass that the act of filling in the form becomes more important than the outcome of any given action.
It would be laughable until you think of this mentality in the likes of Social work where after the death of a child, the heads of department breathe a huge sigh of relief when the subsequent investigation reveals all the paperwork in order, all the ticks in the right boxes.
The small detail that the child is dead is secondary.
+1
Well, if you’ve fulfilled all of your employers expectations in a proactive and holistic manner, if the child is dead then it was obviously the result of the system, which must therefore be tinkered with at great expense.
Ok , what about if the big society works ?
Then she can give the drill back to the kid.
“The old prime minister’s wife was here last year Sam, and she said she used one on Gordon to help him get wood.”
Looks like a screwdriver bit rather than a drill bit but even so shouldn’t be held, but it’ll stop when it tangles her hair so the lad won’t get hurt.
Slightly worrying as the kid appears to be wearing a hospital admittance tag already
More pointless stuff as Broken Britain goes down the plughole. Bet she brought that drill in her Mulberry bag – Anya Hindmarsh ones are crap for heavy gear.
Broken Britain? More plan ‘B’ from Brown and Balls.
Our plan B was to have the ratings agencies downgrade UK government debt from
AAA to single B
Like that one. Surely Osborne will use it at some point.
I’ve heard around 2015, as government spending is set to rise year on year until then.
Fuck. Spending to rise you say? Fuck. We’re so fucked.
Spending rising till 2015 ??? That’s OUR solution to the debt problem.
“Mr Osborne said public spending would actually rise from £637billion in 2010/11 to £711billion in 2015/16.”
It seems Osborne shares your vision Herr Bollocks.
bet the bit in in the wrong way
” Get the sub on!”
I bet Justine ” Chick with a dick” Miliband is jealuos…..
She should be careful using a drill like that, she looks like she’s about to get her hair caught in the bit. That could be messy.
Is this a SamLeak??

I do , I work and have my taxes stolen from me .
And while you’re out to work, Billy, I’ll be round yours to do a bit of breaking and entering. Innit.
I wouldnt , Mrs Bowden is very keen on defending her home.
I’ll stick to fiddling then.
You a busker Benny?
No need. All those caring socialists will be doing it – them being so caring and big-hearted and all.
That’s the neat trick with being a socialist. You don’t have to lift a finger or dip into your own pocket. You spend other people’s money and organise other people’s time.
Nor do you have to justify your views. “I’m a socialist” you say as you sup your second Bolly and folks will nod reverentially.
Fucking arseholes.
The big society has charities that gets people free of charge to help the communities, with charity management costs into the £100,000 range and company cars,when we get real charites where management costs drop to zero or just assets then maybe,I exclude the RNLI as we can see the assets being used the rest can go and collect silver foil or jam jars or tap Bliar and Brown and the gang up as charity HAS to begin at home.
Isn’t it nice to have a foxy PM’s wife? Slotgob and Magda were gruesome. I also remember a story going round in 97 or 98 that Slotgob was demanding to be referred to as the First Lady! Did I imagine this or was this a real story?
No or it was
“First Lady” … is a title which does not exist in the British Constitution …if it did it wouldn’t be the PM’s wife anyway it would be either the Queen Regnant or Queen Consort……..but if you google Cherie Blair First Lady you’ll be amazed at the number of entries it returns so your memory appears to be correct insofar as Ms Booth(aka Mrs Blair)did seem to favour this title be used when being addressed by the ordinary public…thankfully neither she nor her husband have received any honour from the United Kingdom and let us hope that that remains the case although tis’ strange that Mr Blair who is credited(?) as “saving” the monarchy in August 1997 on the death of Princess Diana has not received any favour of esteem from Her Majesty which bearing in mind every single PM before him has and has been awarded the Order of the Garter as a matter of course within a few years of vacating Downing Street(there being several vacancies used by death since he resigned)Indeed Mrs T not only received the Order of the Garter but also the even more select and prestigious Order of Merit and even John Major got a KG for services to the Crown on Diana’s death
I seem to recall that Blair hasn’t taken a Lordship because then there are disclosure rules to be adhered to. More than likely the non-award (or more likely non-sought after) KG is for similar tax-efficient reasons.
What is so pleasant is that SamCam is a normal, attractive and intelligent woman
With no chip on her shoulder
No intention to make money out of her position
And not in the business of lies
The contrary of Slotbob and the Beard…
We don’t “do” normal attractive and intelligent women in Zanu Labour
We just do weirdos, liars and hypocrites…
Like our husbands..
“This is how we drilled my husband’s brain together.”

They are some of the most feared, respected and controversial men in Hollywood… and now they are facing off against each other.
On Monday, Oscar-winning filmmaker Michael Moore filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles against power producers Bob Weinstein and Harvey Weinstein for allegedly cheating him out of $2.7 million from the hit 2004 documentary “Farenheit 9/11.”
Moore is seeking punitive damages from the Weinstein’s Fellowship Adventure Group, who he claims agreed to split the profits 50/50 from the film (the movie pulled in $222.4 million worldwide at the box office, making it the most successful documentary of all time), but instead hid a portion of the money from him.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Moore’s lawyer, Larry Stein, released a statement regarding the breach of contract lawsuit, which read, “An independent auditor came in and discovered that the Weinsteins had re-routed at least $2.7 million dollars that belonged to Michael Moore from ‘Fahrenheit 9/11.’ This is the first time Michael Moore has ever sued anyone in his 20-year career as a filmmaker. That should be some indication about how serious this is. It’s very sad it had to come to this. Michael believes the Weinsteins have been a force for good when it comes to championing independent film — but that does not give them the right to violate a contract and take money that isn’t theirs. The $2.7 million is just the floor of what we believe is owed. When this goes to discovery I wouldn’t be surprised if the amount of what was taken goes much, much higher.”
The Weinstein camp has responded to the claims, as their lawyer Bert Fields told THR, “The Weinsteins have paid everything they should have paid,” adding, “Mr. Moore has received a huge amount of money from this film and we believe he is overreaching. He should be ashamed of himself.” Fields expressed his outrage to Entertainment Weekly as well, telling the magazine that the claims of “accounting irregularity” are “absolute baloney” and that, “he’s not entitled to another dime.” Fields has also argued that Moore has already earned upwards of $20 million from “Farenheit 9/11.”
THR reports that the Weinsteins and Moore have reportedly had a number of meetings to discuss the issue at hand, but the parties have had troubles with one another’s claims. Moore has claims in the suit that there were “grossly excessive and unreasonable” costs by the Weinsteins, including a private jet to carry a single passenger to Europe.
Ha! Serves him right can’t stand him and his “I’m right and I’m not listening if you don’t agree”, hope he has a new one ripped in to him and is ostracised by the rest of the Hollywood producers for the rest of his life.
Sounds just a tad like Dodgy Dave and his big idea!!
Are these the Tel Aviv Weinsteins by any chance?
A bunch of interfering idiots meddling & messing up people’s lives. Count me out.
I cannot decide which is the saddest or most depressing aspect of these comments; the need to produce a ra ra big society poster picture or the health and safety pedants who get off on being able to list the greatest number of health and safety infractions.
This country truley is fubared.
The simplest linenfold style is “parchemin” (also known as “parchment fold”), a low relief carving formed like a sheet of paper or piece of linen folded in half and then spread out with the sharp centered fold running vertically, and the top and bottom running out to the corners of the panel, with something of the appearance of an opened book. This style of linenfold can be created using a plane and a pre-drawn pattern, with a little finishing chisel work required at each end.

Sarah Brown gave up a successful career in business to serve the country
http://www.ayewrite.com/programme/events/Pages/sarahbrownevent.aspx
How odd I can’t recall Sarah ever serving the country or standing for election (like her husband). The only event that comes to mind is when she tried to save Gordon at the Labour conference by calling him her hero.
Don’t forget the lachrymose performance when Gordoom bared his soul to the Nation.
You on about the GMTV sofa or Piers Morgan?
Either way it makes no difference. She was NOT serving her country, she was serving SELF. As a professional PR bod she was trying to save her husband’s career. But she ignored the age old adage that You can not make a silk purse out of a pig’s ear or the more modern vernacular that you can’t polish a TURD.
They just don’t get it, where is any humility; are they so hard-skinned that they feel no embarrassment; do they read their own publicity; are they so driven by money and fame that they cannot see through it; do they really think that they inspire people from their political publicity!!
Cool. So Sarah’s not at the Scottish book festival her husband’s attending next month? And he’s not at ‘her’ festival in March?
Hmm… Marriage going well, is it?
She is serving the country?

That Osborne bastard has cast aspersions on my judgement in selling loads of Bullion !!!
You still cannot cυnt you count.
Sorry, I’ll say that again…
That woman sitting behind bullyballs looks as though she fully expects him to turn around and smack her one .
It’s noticeable that ed ‘gordon’balls’ team spend much of their time telling anyone who will listen that balls is an economic genius. Balls of course spent much of his time, whilst in brown’s government, saying exactly the same of gordon. So he obviously believes in the tactic, tell a lie often enough and the public will believe it.
It’s quite clear when balls opens his mouth on occasions like these that his capacity for rational economic judgement, just like gordon’s, is completely lacking.
You couldn;t trust him with pocket money!

Finally he gets it! Disgraced MP Eric Illsley resigns seat in the Commons after £14,000 expenses fraud
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1354961/MP-Eric-Illsley-quits-Commons-pleading-guilty-14k-expenses-fraud.html
In a way I can understand his frustration as many many more MPs stole much much more but they have walked free and continue to walk free.
Why was Jacqui Smith Never prosecuted?
so when is Bill Wiggin going to resign and have his day in court?
big society equals big bollox
Wonder if HMRC & the local council will try to have a slice of him,just in case plod missed something
No actual date when his resignation takes effect from , is it today, tomorrow or next week ? This news won’t be carried by the Biased BBC on any of there networks all they said last month & misleadingly IMO, he had resigned.
Hope the media rubs fu*king Red Ed’s Nose right in this.
The LABOUR crook Illsley as predicted will have his snout in the trough feeding on public funds right upto the very last minute.
Hope the HoC officials double checks he most recent expense claims just in case he tries to fiddle again, would not put that past this conceited low life.
A right thieving LABOUR scum bag & hope he’s gets the maxium prison term !! (And he’s not allowed any KY gel!)

Eric Illsley, who has admitted making dishonest expenses claims, formally resigns as MP for Barnsley Central
Barnsley Central MP Eric Illsley has resigned, two days before he is due to be sentenced for dishonestly claiming parliamentary expenses.
The MP had come under pressure to step down after admitting £14,000 of expenses fraud last month.
Illsley had earlier said he “deeply regretted” his actions and would resign before his sentencing, which is due at Southwark Crown Court on Thursday.
A Treasury spokesman confirmed that Illsley had resigned on Tuesday night.
A True Socialist mind you, he kept screwing the tax-payer for all he could get to the bitter end.

We need to trigger a by-election in Piggy Illsley’s constituency. Can someone find a pile of doggy doo and stick a red rosette on it ? The voters up there will still vote for it.

Simon Heffer produces an article with more thoughtfulness and insight than his usual offerings. There is disquiet in the ranks of the Conservative party about the quality of governance, and Heffer explores some of the reasons. Interestingly, they accord closely with sentiments often expressed by Guido’s windowlickers – poor presentation of policy, inexperience among ministers, and he additionally highlights the poor standards among civil servants. His views are, apparently, informed by a fairly senior minister not noted for going off message.
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/comment/columnists/simonheffer/8311969/Conservative-MPs-are-biting-their-tongues-but-for-how-much-longer.html
Heffer is a fat ginger poof
Dear Engineer. I agree that Heffer is more composed than is normal for him, but the message is not altered. The disparagement of Cameron and all his works, together with the overemphasis of the ripples on the brillig pond that is the CPP, are still his key themes. Heff, though hopelessly bigoted, nevertheless does us a service by highlighting that which the Muscular Liberal and his acolytes would rather was kept hidden. He is a puff of smoke on the wind, not the crackle of a fire..
The last time the blue rinsed, twin set and pearls activists like Engineer revolted, they stabbed their hero in the back as i remenber.
The whole festering stink pit needs carpet bombing. Don’t you infidel cock sucking bastards ever learn anything? Even from your hero George Bush and Tony Blair?
Allahu Akbar!
Bit too much sherbet tonight, old boy. Let the anger flow -toddle off and beat one of your wives.
I look at where ‘toddling’ along with ‘democracy’ in your shit hole of a country has got you and laugh in your face.
Allahu Akbar!
Be on the first plane out of Heathrow tomorrow, to Riyadh! Leave the infidels, never return to their land, and I will be happy with you!
Still so much anger. Why don’t you go and sit on the stairs until the nasty carpet city goes away and the nice carpet city comes back?
You say I am angry yet I am the one laughing. It is you who are the angry ones my friend.
Plane. Riyadh. Tomorrow. Me happy. Don’t disappoint. OK?
If democracy is so terrible, why have 4 North African Arab nations had popular revolts to change to democracy from dictatorships? And how long do you think Lybia will last with Gaddafi in charge?
I hate democracy and your laughable shitty country so much, I live here rather than living in a Muslim nation!
Also, my penis is very very small.
Perhaps too much information. But it was Allah’s Will that my penis should be very very small.
Ah! so you are angry because your penis is very, very, small. Do your wives gather every night to laugh at your penis? That is called freedom of association. They are allowed to do that in a democracy. Do they mock your miniscule manhood? That is called freedom of expression. That too is allowed in a democracy. Also allowed in a democracy is your right to have an operation that will leave you with a penis the size of a sex-crazed camel. Your wives will not mock you. They will fight to share your bed, and you will be happy. Peace be upon you my brother in democracy.
The burqa: God’s gift to wifebeaters. The general public can’t see the bruised mess underneath.
I have followed politics for all my adult life, Engineer. I have to say that I would be beaten if I found myself in Cameron’s shoes. The wreck is beyond redemption in my view. That is one reason that I no longer live in the UK. I do not approve of Cameron as regards political philosophy as he has not spelled any out. But I also recognise that their are limitations due to being in coalition. He is good on his feet and may in time prove to be good.
I imagine that you are not far removed in age from me, maybe slightly younger. I grew up appreciating that there had been a World War without experiencing any of it, except the privations that followed. I saw much bomb damage when I was very young as I was born in Plymouth. I know that we never want to see a return of that again in Europe. To that extent, I am an EU enthusiast. Or perhaps I should say, an EEC enthusiast. Political union has been much more vexatious than economic union and the common currency has been badly handled by those predictable states.
It is easy, especially as a legitimately proud island race, to pour scorn on the EU where it patently has been mismanaged. But hey! We have also allowed ourselves to be mismanaged in a different way. Tearing the whole thing up may seem attractive for now. But if it means that our children and grandchildren end up killing each other, the blood will be upon our hands.
We have to improve our game. Heffer is right on that point. But he also refers to curbing the EU. Quite right as well. In that respect, we should be doing so from the inside – if we pay any heed to our history.
We are inside the EU but what difference have we ever been able to make.
Why should we continue to support a corrupt institution whose finances have never been approved and which daily gathers more powers to tell us how to think and act in insane detail.
I too grew up surrounded by bomb sites but I didn’t conclude that we had to be governed by an undemocratic european organisation set up for the benefit of the Franco Germans, and I don’t buy into the hypothesis that we would been at war again without the EU. From the 1870 to 1945 the wars were the responsibility of Germany which has now achieved domination by other means, not discounting their own not inconsidearable efforts.
I do agree that the UK has been largely misgoverned but that’s part of a European problem of not understanding our place in a changing world and how the world works largely because of the general malaise of socialism throughout the EU.
1. I didn’t conclude, either, that we had to be governed by an undemocratic european organisation.
2. An economic union was a way to ensure that war would not break out again by making the member countries more inter-dependent. That is not the same as to state that we would been at war again without the EU by now (you only use the past tense, I note).
3. A longer reach back into history will show that we experienced eight centuries of war with France. And at other times with the Spanish and the Dutch. The Germans did not enter the frame until recently in historical terms, following their unification.
4. Socialism must accept a large part of the blame but that does not involve others of a different nominal persuasion.
Has the EU really given us peace? Or is it that, today, if Germany kicked off like it has 3 times in the last 130 years, the war (and Germany) would be over in about 2 minutes?
There were those of that persuasion during the interwar years. The war to end all wars had been fought. Only Churchill feared otherwise. He was rewarded with his wilderness years.
All of us travel to Europe. The notion of being at war with these civilised people is unthinkable. No chance that the European movement has played any part in this though! Allowing us to think that war is impossible – AGAIN.
Look at our recent history at going to war in far enough away places. Walter Mitty Prime Ministers talking to God about what they should do – and then doing as they were told by a US president.
Like many commenting here, I am perhaps a little more Eurosceptic (sometimes bordering on Euroseptic). My reason for this is the difference in political tradition between Britain and most of the more politically significant EU countries. We have a long history of personal independence, hard-won in many cases, and that reflects in our attitude that we are Sovereign and our politicians, whether they like it or not, serve us by acting in the country’s best interests. The continental tradition is more top-down, with people accepting more readily the diktat of government. Many of the EU institutions are modelled on the latter tradition, and that sits uneasy with me.
Had the EU stayed as the EEC, a free-trade area bolstered by the seperate security provided by NATO, and perhaps with frequent summits between the senior politicians of the nation states, I could have lived easily with it. That would have been sufficient to guarantee European peace, which was supposedly the object of the exercise. Unfortunately, mission creep has set in among the unelected bureaucrats of Brussels, and things are going too far, too fast. We are in danger of losing our cherished independence; given how long it has taken us to shape it, that shouldn’t be given up lightly.
I am not far away from you here. There is more than one continental tradition if you compare the Germans with say the French. With the latter, it may have seemed top down but, in reality, the people tend to do what they will so there is an enormous “papering over the cracks” process in order to save appearances. Italy is two countries of producers in the north and lawyers and civil servants in the south. Many from the south work their way into positions of authority in the north. The outcome cannot be compared to either Germany or France.
Too far, too fast is exactly right. However, we have to start from where we are now. Pulling out would win back some powers admittedly but I think that most in the UK would find it a pyrrhic victory within the medium term.

Not a bad article for Simon “scratched record” Heffer.
The civil service is certainly a major national problem – it has spent the last 14 years hoovering-up the unemployable to keep the unemployment figures down. As noted below, it needs carpet bombing.
Or even above.

Have you noticed what word the BBC has left out of that piece? That’s right… LABOUR!
Not once has the gloriously impartial broadcaster mentioned that he was a LABOUR MP.
FFS! They are such a joke.
Ah, now I thought that, too. But he’s not in Labour any more, he got chucked out last year.
You can see the thought process at the BBC, though: “shall we say ‘former Labour MP’? Oooh, no, better not.”

How do you read an audiobook ???????
she means she’s been recording her book as an audio book.
I tried to record Gordon’s latest
bogbusterblockbuster of a book but kept falling asleep as I was reading.Sarah’s dulcet tones are being used as the voice on the CD of the book.
Here’s another attention seeker like sally alley.
Except this one keeps putting herself into the public eye for the purpose of hyping that ‘book’ she’s planning to publish on mother’s day.
Of course she’s just trying to earn a pretty penny to keep the brown household solvent until gordon lands that big job that he says is coming his way quite soon, looking after the world’s finances, with lots of first class travel and generous salary and pensions.
Bearing in mind he’s on PM’s retired pay, I don’t think the household is on income supplement just yet.
I’m surprised the yanks haven’t shot the Hunt. He released the Lockerbie ‘bomber’.
To be Frank. I am very disappointed with the CIA, IRA, Al-Qaeda, Barry Obama and Mrs Duffy.
Every one of them has a good reason to assassinate Gordon and Not one of them has done it.
I think we all share your disappointment.
I like that Tawny Blur!
