          Ironic – eh! I can describe Fred as a @anker on any web site not based in England and Wales – so much for the ‘Mother of Parliaments and ‘free speech’.

          1984 is already alive and well in England and Wales.

    Bit of a dull week really. At least the Japs have taken the Libyans off the front page – getting bored of it now.

      Yup… I’m going to sit in the garden and watch the grass grow. More interesting than pondering on the list of so-called highlights above!

Norman Tebbit has a humble brag:

“We Maastricht rebels were derided and abused for opposing the single currency by the wise, clever, Guardianista soft centre left establishment from whom we now hear so little on the matter.”



The last Quango in Paris says:

Mr Bryant and Mr Watson managing to make the whole hacking affair look like a farce – the more they moan the less I care about the whole subject! So partisan it beggars belief at all costs. They cannot rise above it ! If I was to call the PM a ‘liar’ I would want to be VERY sure.
