Balls told the Chancellor today that he was distracted by Hack-gate and should be doing more about the Euro-crisis. However while Europe burns, it looks like MCC member Charlie Whelan, Kev and Ed are having a lovely afternoon at Lords:
Guido feels one of the old gang is missing. Is Damian just out of shot?

Lord Lamont told ITV News…
“I think the PM is just human and Ed Balls is a pretty irritating person”
2nd visit to Lords in a month.
“There are some in this country who fear that in going into Europe, we shall in some way sacrifice independence and sovereignty. These fears I need hardly say are completely unjustified”
Ted Heath,
British Conservative Prime Minister and noted Europhile and utter twat
Nothing’s too good for the werkers!
…or something like that.
Shouldn’t (Privately Educated) Ed Balls be on the BBC saying that everyone in public life apart from Labour/Guardian/BBC are irresponsible?
Shouldn’t Kev be shredding documents?
Shouldn’t Whelan slip through an inter-dimensional portal and infect another universe with his despicable effing bullshit?
Balls criticises CaMoron and Osborne for not taking an interest in European financial debate today, but he finds time to watch cricket with another floating turd that won’t disappear.
He might want to reflect that he and his mate McDoom helped cause this little financial mess, an insincere apology for not regulating banks does not cut the mustard. He seems to have forgotten Blair and Brown caused the mess because they wanted the UK to be a financial centre and they deregulated banks in 1999- with his policy advisor Balls. The Glass and Steagle regulation worked for over 90 years until Clinton, Blair and Brown changed the rules.
When considering new taxes, how about penalising MPs who helped cause the mess by financial incompetence. Instead of Darling and Byrne getting £20,000 for leaving the Treasury why aren’t they punished? Why should they get a payment for making the country bankrupt? Why get paid an additional money as they are paid as ministers FFS.
Come on Guido, Let’s get back to MP fiddles, MPs involvement in phone hacking. It is these creepy corrupt little fckers that need sorting out. Quite frankly, I’m not interested in editors or owners; politicians are meant to be running the country, hold them to account.
Lying traitor too.
Heath & Maggie Thatcher in the 70s BOTH speaking in support of membership of the EEC, and heath describing a referendum if there is to be one as ‘abhorrent’, and he would do EVERYTHING in his power to ensure a result goes the way he wants, and history shows that included some very dodgy underhand tactics worthy of a banana republic.)
Both just taking their orders from the GLOBALISTS, it seems when Madge finally tried to defy them they soon organised her departure.
Time for you to signal ‘dead Balls’, methinks.
What a VILE Trio !
Mr. McBride is now a reformed character and doing good works for CAFOD. As such, he would not wish to be seen with such ‘damaged goods’…
Typo alert – you’ve spelt ‘deformed’ with an ‘r’.
As for the good works of CAFOD, I have a sneaky feeling that the children of the world are buggered if CAFOD do and buggered if CAFOD don’t, albeit in different ways.
posh boys day out
Has not Whelan got an MCC tie on too?
Anyone like me to bathe them? I’m free for the rest of the day.
We haven’t finished arguing yet.
Oh, hang on, I need to do a jobbie. Sorry.
looks like Damians chin! What a group, eh?
Full toss(er), flipper and bouncer respectively.
+ several hundred.
Is he practising for when he gets in to the House of Lords (only to please the wife) despite his socialist principles & joins that other hypocrite Pres cot?
Is Ed meeting a member of the Press? Who is paying? Has he declared this meeting?
We need a transcript of the entire conversation. If he doesn’t publish it then he must have something to hide.
I don’t know what’s wrong with the MCC and Lord’s
There would be a time when the likes of Balls would never be let in
My how times have changed hey?
Could Gordy not even be bothered turning up there either?
You need to remember that cricket is a game for southern nancy boys* – not something that can be said for the Scots, even a scumbag bastard such as Gordon Brown, a disgrace to the nation.
* This explains why they keep losing to all dem effnics, innit
…cricket is a game for southern nancy boys… Are you suggesting that Beefy is a gayboy?
Well bugger me, I hope it’s true – get thee behind me Beefy dear!
I thought he bowled from the Pavilion End…
How the hell did he get into the MCC?
I thought they had standards…clearly slipping!
about a month ago, Mps played a MCC 11 on the hallowed pitch of Lords, Ed Balls was wicket keeper but didnt have a safe pair of hands.
Balls is the sort who would bowl a beamer at a 10-year-old if he thought it would help him win.
And don’t let him near the scorebook at the end of the game.
I hate to think of the hallowed turf being desecrated by the presence of those twats.
Hallowed turf is at the MCG!!
Vetted by the same people that checked Coulson?
Was Baldwin There……can l deal behind the pavillion….check it out Tom!
Maybe he claims the joining fee/subs on his expenses.We are told they are all at it.
He wouldn’t be allowed into the Long Room; he’s not wearing a tie.
“Is Damian just out of shot?”
Neo-Guido, Have a word with someone a Sky, they have cameras down there.
On Topic for a change score is now 125-2 Trott and KP at the crease.
Damian is probably at the bar, spilling someone’s pint most likely.
I would gladly pay someone to push ‘em over the top of that barrier.
Agreed – what a talentless trio of Hunts.
Or get Wendi Deng to come and bitch slap them all.
Whelan? A member of the MCC? How?
What the hell is the black ball for?
I really did need to claim £173,922.06 MP’s expenses for the last tax year, honest. Snigger.
Worry not lads,their mobiles have all been hacked into.
Why is this man getting sued?
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-14234792
You don’t often see 3 wrong ‘uns in a row.
Unless its the P*kistan team photo……
Oh yes you do, one only has to look at the front bench of the opposition !
Thanks for the Cricket thread
only second one in last few years, last one was when we played aussies in 2009 and Guido asked Jonah not to wish em luck
Up the workers!!
They’ll be at Henley, Ascot and Glyndebourne next.
Croquet with Prescott perhaps?
Can someone peel my orange for me?
Gordon, I will try and help, but you will need to take it out of your bottom first
would that be a blood orange nurse?
I understand Kookaburra have an option on Whelan’s liver.
….th th th th th
Should have a “No Balls” entry policy.
Maybe should have kept for caption contest?
The things you see when you haven’t got your gun with you…
After 10 years the oh-so-successful eurozone needs a ‘Marshall Plan’.
FFS – Clegg should be taken out & shot – not constantly rewarded for his treason & failure.
That photos going to hurt if Kev gets pulled into a Mirror hacking story….
Plus Mr Mcbride maybe in shot as well…………….
Ed Balls said he was not friends with “Mr Mcbride”
Quick Guido, sent this scoop to the BBC, I’m sure they will feature the liar and hypocrit Balls on the next news bulletin.
He’s not, but you could always photoshop him in. A nice made up photo – that’s what some on Labourites would do.
Don’t worry Billy, I’ve got me eye on McGuire….by gum I have!
Can someone please take one of the cricket bats nearby and do the decent thing?
Who paid for the tickets?
Taxpayers for Balls, Workers for Whealen.
How would we know it was Lords?
Looks more like Alton Towers roller coaster park.
The Tie, its Lords.
So there’s a different tie for Alton towers. Well, well.
Hasn’t the last 2 weeks all been about politicians being to close to the press !!! oh sorry balls isnt a politician and kev isnt a reporter so its ok
This isn’t the same thing you counter-revolutionary fucker; these people are Leftwing so it’s fine.
Sorry to pick you up on it, but please – it is “too close” not “to close”.
Standards are slipping – I blame Labour’s educashun policies.
What a loathsome bunch of trash who have so much to answer for .
Just wish the gullible who vote Labour would realize it.
Do you think the public school boys make Kevin fetch the drinks?
….and accompany them to the lats to shake the drips?
Crisis? What crisis?
and of course all of the expenses run up these fc*king sh*ts will be paid by US !!
are we really all in this together ??……….
If McPoison and Dolly the Creep turned up, would it be termed a ‘ Gaggle of Gobshites’ ?
I reckon that is McBride on the far left.
Odd for Whelan to be on the far right though!
It does look like McBride. Someone at Lords getting bored and resorting to reading Guido needs to find out!
Gotcha!
PS For Labour it was a good week to bury (for Middle England) the news they have a new union hotshot as general secrectary. Without the unions’ money, Mili would be without a voice …
And for the unions it was good week to bury the news that a top geezer moved on with a 350,000 pya-off …
What a country – union officials are financially so much better off than the middle class – horrible!
Lords defeat for Balls
Cricket is Tai Chi for poof as Frankie Boyle one said or maybe it was Susan Boyle.
isn’t that kevin maguire nuzzling up to balls.
Yeah, tradition dictates a few pints during play and as Toilets are adjacent there is more cricket watched..simples!
Triple Scum
“Morrison “cricket club what’s up with” Tesco” old Trafford… fuck me that’s a big shopping trolley they’re sat in .
I suppose this is what all MPs do, just gently ease themselves into their mammoth summer break, paid for by YOU!!!!!!!!! No doubt they will have an exotic holiday booked, then perhaps a few weeks at their country cottage or holiday villa.
He’s another one of these traitorous Globalists partial to going to the odd Bilderberg meeting. Just think how much him and his missus have leeched off the taxpayers, enough to afford a luxury lifestyle, and for what public benefit exactly apart from f**king up the countries balance sheet?
Wish I could afford a few days off, self-employed so no chance! Just feck off all you MP scum!
Good to see Charlie wearing his Rhubarb & Custard (MCC) tie – just as all good socialists should – brings a new meaning to “up the workers!!!”. The hypocrisy of this bunch just beggars belief.
Either McScum is behind the lens taking the shot, or he is on his knees before Ed Balls, taking the money shot.
Which side were they supporting?
The only one missing from the picture that did so much harm to this country is you know who.
