How to Lose Friends and Alienate People II
Guido did mention last week that the gentlemen of the Lobby are as thin-skinned and status conscious as a gaggle of gay hairdressers on a night out, and that Craig Oliver will need to up his game. It seems Craig takes the opposite view. He is treating them mean to keep ‘em keen.
At the Conservative’s Spring Forum in Cardiff yesterday Coulson’s successor arranged to meet a group of political editors in a hotel on one side of Cardiff and then went to another hotel to meet a different group of political editors. Guido admires the casual contempt implicit in his handling of the jumped up copy takers…
“C U Next Tuesday” will be in the hacks thoughts!
Well you may admire him Guido but I think he looks a complete toss pot. What does the hiring of this liberal lefty gayer say about Dave’s judgment?
It says ‘keep your friends close and your enemies even closer’ – not such a bad strategy. Still, I agree, does this 41-year-old realise what a berk he looks?
Much more importantly, though, if Claire Perry is offering her services, I’m free:

Meanwhile Nick suddenly finds Sheffield a very lonely and hostile place…even the Sheffield cutlery manufacturers don’t want him……………..

“But sources say tickets for a fundraising conference banquet, aimed at leading business figures, are selling badly – despite party chief executive Chris Fox promising ‘a very enjoyable and informative event as well as a useful opportunity to network with fellow business people’.”
This is just the sort of crap Blair did and still does. The Cons do it. Dirty money grabbing whores the lot of them.
Apparently Mike Handycock said ‘they’d have to pay me to go to this sort of thing’. He’s probably got a previous engagement wth a Russian spy.
From the Wail: Ms Perry stormed in and declared loudly: ‘What have I got to do to be called by the Speaker? Give him a b*** j**?’
If Ms Perry would like to speak into the pink mike, I would be delighted to provide her with the facility.
He’s supposed to Dave’s Spindoctor not an enemy you stupid twat.
As long as there was a decent bar in the hotel then I doubt the cuckholded political editors would give a toss.
Dunno, don’t think that would be enough for Baldwin. Get the Columbian marching powder and a few ladies of the night and we’re in business.
That’s Cardiff man: the ladies of the day are bad enough.
Colombian.
Ha ha ha.
Thanks Dave. You are welcome to him.
Call me Dave has nominated Douglas Hogg for a pierage !
yes the same thieving fucker who charged the tax payer for cleaning out his moat
Shame on you you shallow wanker !
talk about cleaning up politics, You are all the same !
Enjoy your twelve months in the spotlight Dave you will be gone next year when the coalition crumbles
Is this Brighton pier or Southend pier – Do tell!
Is he going to be the new west pier in Brighton?
Fuck me so many talented comedians on one blog !
peerage ! is that ok
Thought it was because he can’t bear to be far from water.
Go with the flow, I say.
To be fair, whilst Doogie may have egregiously fucked up his expenses he also does possess one of the most forensic constitutional brains the Tory party has. Not much consolation if you’re on about principles of conduct but for the Tory party to lose that man from its network would be an act of petulance and a short termist oversight.
He hasn’t got that good a forensic constitutional brain if he can “egregiously fuck up his expenses”, has he.
If a completely out of touch troughing tosspot, albeit with a brain, is the best they can do God help us.
Perhaps his brain would be more usefully employed tackling a crossword or two at home in his dotage.
If Hogg was Labour, I’ll doubt they’d be many here proclaiming his alleged ‘forensic constitutional brain’.
Just shows the depths of the party tribalists.
F him and his party.
I am a man with a moat to clean
I have no money – unlike the Queen.
So I’ll put the cost on my expenses claim
(I know other MP’s would do the same).
And if I’m found out I’ll splutter and flounder
But will not confess to being a bounder.
In months to come, when people are bored
I’ll be erminated into a Lord.
If Prescott can do it then so can anyone -
Why, even that slimeball named Mandleson.
“……….you will be gone next year when the coalition crumbles”
Unlikely for two very good reasons:-
1. The LibDems are tied to the Coalition and cannot afford to walk away yet and risk a General Election in which they’ll be annihilated.Their only hope is that the economy picks up and the good times are starting to appear again in 2015.However if we’re still in the economic doldrume and there has been no improvement in the economy or employment they may well decide to walk in 2014 to try and put some distance between the Tories and themselves before the election to try and salvage their party….however IF that happens Clegg will not be the leader of the LibDems going into the 2015 election. Equally all the present LibDems Cabinet Ministers and junior minister who took the “Tory Shilling” will be dis-credited with the LibDem membership and guess what step forward Mr Hughes who is in a strong position and will be mainly untainted by association with the Coalition
2. For all their fighting talk Labour actually don’t want to be in government anytime soon….they now just what a mess they left behind and have no appetite to do what is necessary and are content to let the Coalition take the hard decisions whilst they snipe and carp and build up their base for re-election in 2015 when hopefully the corner has been turned
Just about right.
Just one thing, Hughes is as unelectable as Ed the Gimp, more than just unpleasant, odious.
Good analysis. If Call-Me-Dave shows any sign of growing a pair he should now be moving the agenda onto proper Conservative territory, safe in the knowledge that the Limp Dums will have to stay on board for the duration.
Growing a pair?? Being a Conservative? Shit, it’s just not going to happen, is it? Situation normal then – yet more of blue Liebour….
You are overlooking the first rule of the political class – the bigger the f*ck up the better the reward.
I see both Miliboys have now grown beards on the top of their heads.
No Billy yet?
Probably gone for a walk along the pier.
If Guido’s here then Billy wont be far behind.
There’s cricket on at the mo
Piss off.
Fake @ 10:28
Another mess by Dave and co.:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1363424/Eight-SAS-men-undercover-mission-seized-Libya–rebel-forces-went-help.html
NOT the only one either …all this “loose talk” from his LibDem Ministers about splitting up banks has also made the UK’s largest and most successful(no taxpayer bail outs either) to consider returning to its roots with the possible loss of jobs and tax revenues for the Treasury

What the fuck are ‘we’ doing there?
If it is for oil then Cameron should at least be honest and not hide behind the cloak of ‘promoting democracy’ and other pathetic sound bite.
“What the fuck are ‘we’ doing there?”
My thoughts also. I think this is indirectly about oil. Either they are trying to find the dirt on the previous governments shady dealings with the Mad Dog of the Middle East. Or its an attempt to bury it. Either way I doubt the SAS were happy about undertaking such a hare brained mission.
As if there aren’t enough problems back here. Our thieving corrupt political class just can’t stop themselves interfering and creating yet more trouble.
Whichever faction these dopes support in ‘our name’ will only end up hating Britain’s guts.
It’s about time our armed forces started to seriously think about just where their loyalties should lie: to a self serving corrupt political class, or the increasingly disenfranchised British people.

“Comment of the day” in the right hand side box !
as a punchline to “Skid@Marks”Monday morning cartoon
“How is Toynbee so rich ” That to me is about as funny as their shite cartoons
can someone explain how that is funny or clever ? am i out of touch ?
No Frankie your not out of touch, their cartoons are total and utter shite.
Sockpuppet.
Dave call me Big Talk Cameron
“we will impose a no fly zone !”
we already have one fuck head you scrapped all our fuckin aircraft !
A giant spray can is on its way to Libya even now.
Cameron is a large Aerosol
Can’t fault you on that one.
“Dave” should realise that its “Walk Softly and Carry a Big Stick !” not “Talk loudly and carry no stick !”
Nice collection of sockpuppets talking to each other here
From his appearance I assume he is a special chum of, and was recruited by, Boles, to join the rest of the gaggle.
Oh do bugger off back to huffing and puffing in your garden shed. Its bad enough seeing your narrow minded, tiny Englander toss over on the Speccie site.
Not keen on other people having opinions contrary to your own eh?
How very ‘new politics’ and encompassing of you, quite the opposite of being narrow minded don’t you agree?
As for ‘tiny Englander’ if by that you mean standing up for this country and it’s inhabitants, then yes, guilty as charged and always will be.
Now fuck off, your masters are calling.

Hi Guido
Not only does the Guardian avoid tax as much as poissible
But BBC presenters have their tax avoidance schemes also
http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/2011/02/07/david-cameron-s-new-spin-boss-craig-oliver-helps-wife-avoid-tax-115875-22904947/
So all those BBC leftie luvvies are avoiding tax as well ??
Like everyone else here, I am disgusted that while all these fucking Labour and leftie luvvies give us lessons about tax avoidance, they practice it en masse themselves
Like the Conman Blair with all his offshore companies..Is he non-dom now BTW?
Who knows. But you can bet your arse that he has had the very best tax avoidance advice.
I wonder if they’re all good little Socialists and pay their propaganda tax ?
We should call the Beeboids TONTOS
We speak shyt with forked tongues
Last time I looked, the parasite class claimed their tv tax on expenses and their Sky packages too.
Look taxes are not for the likes of us..they’re intended for the “little people” who believe the shite we broadcast ……ok ?? Now back to the “Cuts” and how nasty the Tory-led Government is to “Ordinary” working people…………
You’re doing well spinning for Dave aren’t you Mr Oliver ?
This comes across as rude, petulant and arrogant. It is behaviour increasingly typical of the political classes and their hangers-on.
Always great to see minor celebrities with an audience doing their bit for homophobia. Oh wait…
But, but… the public has a right to kn… er… get treated to their partisan views as if they were news.
Henry polished my helmet this morning.
Kick the historically indigenous population for long enough and they will bite you back with great vengeance.
Lab, Lib and Con should prepare for the supreme kicking of a lifetime.
Politically correct thought police will produce fa*cism throughout Europe
Europe is already moving sharply right
The Left and fellow travellers” cannot fool all of the people all of the time”
So you’re saying a move sharply right is the way to Facism?
Erm, Fascism is a far left, collectivist doctrine and the French FN are as far left as the moonbat PS and our very own idiotic B&P. Right wing they are not, in any shape or form.
Far left, far right… woteva.
The circle is joined somewhere however.
The circle is joined in finity.
Left and right have little meaning these days.
The real dividing line is between those wanting to keep the nation state, and those wanting to destroy it through globalization and mass immigration.
Makes little difference to me if those advocating global governance do it for reasons of profit and greed, eco-lunacy or simple power and control.
Well swipe me! He looks like that and either he isn’t gay (Jack at 10.37 am) or he bats for both sides – amazing. Still I guess that’s what they must mean by “metrosexual man.”
Metrosexual man is a Tonto…professional forked tongue
I would not puy a scond hand from any one of them (or their WAG camp followers either)

If Oliver is treeating the lobby with comptempt perhaps it is because he has been reading this blog and following other lucid people who have denounced the Lobby as a bunch of bought liars for years. We do not even need to name names.
Perhaps he knows that most outside Westminster hold all of the three traditional political parties in deep contempt, though I doubt it as he is intrinsically part of the problem; a big problem at that.
Indeed, Camerons lot were a last throw of the dice as far as many were concerned.
If truth were told, not many had any deeply held belief that the current tories, would be much better than the disasterous ZaNu bunch of thieves, perverts and liars.
The personnel may have changed and the lunatic removed, the script however, is still the same and the argument is all about management details, not ideas or ideals.
Hear bloody hear!
That’s a good point, but, they have the powers to crucify him, keep your friends close and your enemies etc, if he had any brains he would suck up to them and use them, just as Liebour (spit) did, all this play up and play the game is a bag of mud from the moat.
from ow on I am ot usin g the letter
It’s a pity you use any letters let alone be given computer time in your special needs padded cell.
Fuck you.
Silly bunt !
How to Lose Friends and Alienate People III
I see there are petty bureaucrats all ove rthe world. A couple of guys holding a banner saying “Hackney Gas” ( whatever that refers to) have had there banner confiscated by ICC officials as it contravenes advertising regulations at the cricket world cup.
Can’t wait for the olympics in London when we will be privvy to the Olympic committee having their regulations incorporated into British law (undemocratically) for the duration
how to lose friends and alienate people, by all means …..
The Olympics ? Ain’t that something happening in London ?
I hope the usually truculent cab drivers have a mass go slow protest in the Zil lanes and are joined by the angry motorcycle, haulage and generally-pissed-off brigades.
( undemocratically )
Unlawfully too.
Gordon Brown. Gordon Brown. Gordon Brown. Gordon Brown.
Gordon Brown. Gordon Brown. Gordon Brown. Gordon Brown.
Gordon Brown. Gordon Brown. Gordon Brown. Gordon Brown.
Gordon Brown. Gordon Brown. Gordon Brown. Gordon Brown.
SOCIALISTS!!!!!
Divide and conquer? Or more likely presenting different faces of Dave to the left and the lefter wing press.
So this David guy I have been reading a lot about lately…Is he related to Ed Miliband in any way?
His dad was a twat too.
