Olly Grender Spinning, Officially
Somehow Guido has only just managed to notice that his favourite Twitter sparring partner and one of his biggest fans, Olly Grender, has been brought into the Downing Street machine to cover maternity leave for Clegg’s spinmeister, Frau Pietsch. The lobbyist was head of comms for the LibDems under Paddy Ashdown and Ming, but has more recently been the face of LibDem punditry and very on message.
As David Laws’s unofficial spinner and gatekeeper during his troubles, Grender hasn’t strayed far from the scene. She has only recently stopped defending Chris Huhne, which amused Guido greatly. As did the fact that when Guido gently mocked Olly for being over-looked for Coulson’s job back in May 2010, she said she couldn’t think of anything worse. Times change…
It will all be irrelevant – recession begins third week in October, mainly caused by high fuel prices, uncontrollable excessively high energy prices and a total lack of employment security.
Not forgetting the Lib/Lab/Con Trojan Horse, of course, Cassandra.
Darling book released, and it shows that all the chancellors advisors were warning that economoy tanking for years to come…..
But the PM (GB) was being briefed differently – now the question who is the advisor that GB was listening to above all other official and credible exports on finance – that though this was a 6 month blip……
We now who GB though should replace darling, Balls, but it this the source of GB strategy that failed so badly
We know that Balls though Darlings strategy was too fast, too deep
We know that Balls thinks Osbornes strategy was too fast, too deep
i leaves us wondering just what his strategy was – and why GB beleieved it sooo much
Balls cant escape that GB wanted him to replace darling as chancellor – balls can escape that he thought this a poor plan – lol
labours supposed greatest financial brain – should have jumped at chance to tackle worst crisis in 100 years…
The great Balls up still has his supporters.
Steve Richards still very much in love with
the foul fiend and couldn’t help idolising the
appalling idiot in yesterdays Independent.
I didn’t buy the wretched rag. It was a freebie.
Nobody buys the Independent – that’s their problem.
Release Bernie Madoff.
He’s the only guy who knows how to run an economy like this.
She looks like an absolute mess.
Why has she always got a sweat on, is it cuz she’s a porker?
Olly can share my pies any time.
Pies . . . ? . . who got pies . . . ? . . . I’m a pier y’kno . . I need a pie . . anything . . .
Phwooooarrh! – look at them tits . . I’m a tit man meself
Totty Watch tag?
Now we know who ate all the pies!!!!
The Eurozone implosion & forthcoming bank crisis might have something to do with it…
Olly is my kinda liberal.
I prescribe salad and shampoo – twice daily.
She likes a pie bless her.
Nowt wrong with that lass!
Is she related to Pickles?
It’s Pickles in drag. Very, very poor drag, I’ll give you that, but drag nonetheless.
No. She has eaten Pickles …. and the pies.
I’m going out on a limb here and I don’t say this lightly but I wouldn’t. Not even with yours.
You’d have to roll her in flour and go for the wet spot, or maybe slap her on the thighs and surf in on the ripples…..
put icing on her belly and a sprig of holly and call her a christmas pudding
I can’t see my comment.
Never mind
Try some of these…
Only in Denmark.
Save the planet and our bacon.
No stranger to a fish supper in my professional opinion.
no stranger to a fifth supper, surely
lol, I was thinking “Now that’s a face for radio”!
Could launch a thousand ships
A thousand quips?
Lunch – a thousand chips.
More like.
Imagine that sitting on your face!
You’d end up with a mouth full of arse-feta
The winner
She’s the one who’s been on Newsnight trying to sound like she knows what she’s on about, so that’s the Libsh*tes well and truly screwed.
I thought I saw her earlier on Shameless.
Is she melting?
Its global warming.
Hope there’s another spiffing wind today!
Loadsamoney! Lovely subsidies for my family.
Pay your electricity and gas bills on time. Thanks for your contributions!
If she is melting we need a tsunami alert!
I don’t know what everyone is moaning about I think she is rather sweet and can be quite alluring when she’s on the telly. She’s got loverly plump legs despite her varacose vains. Paddy Pantsdown was lucky to have her.
Take it easy Billy, you’re up a bit late today.
I know you like to get an early start in the morning.
To-day oi shall mainly be re-scanning me tv an’ digi-box…..
I’d like someone to give my box some attention.
Olley offers whiffs and soupsongs of lib dem positions , quite femanine in her approach really , I cant say I find some of the lib dem chicanery of much use but in fairness she has saved there ass in her own subtle way . Clever than most of us give credit for , nightmare PR situation , suggest her skills be better used in red cross or unicef as its easier to tell if a person is starving or needs saving , let alone running a series of mansions or wives and cant recall if he did ask ex spouse to take the hit for him , or for that matter give lover second home allowance against the rules .
Moran up for 21 offences , totalling 60k is this the winner ?(I thought jaqui had manged 110k )
3 men in a room having a chat , one nods one writes the cheque the other sneezes and is uanable to recall what it is was for …….
The great contraction , or in balls case the big shrivell , by now I suppose many of us most be thinking how was it possible for a previous government to so utterly ruin a national economy (somthing no doubt the Americans may well ponder soon if its not congresses fault that is) . Cathy Ashton waives overpayment to some EU staff, and PM and Chancellor want a stable eurozone , EU leaders unable to tie shoolaces in getting IMF demands carried through , Trichette to leave note saying sorry we have run out of your money .
SWISS NATIONAL BANK SAYS SETS MINIMUM EXCHANGE RATE TARGET AT 1.20 PER EURO
SNB SAYS ENFORCE THIS MINIMUM RATE WITH THE UTMOST DETERMINATION AND IS PREPARED TO BUY FOREIGN CURRENCY IN UNLIMITED QUANTITIES
“The Swiss National Bank (SNB) is therefore aiming for a substantial and sustained weakening of the Swiss franc. With immediate effect, it will no longer tolerate a EUR/CHF exchange rate below the minimum rate of CHF 1.20. The SNB will enforce this minimum rate with the utmost determination and is prepared to buy foreign currency in unlimited quantities.”
EURCHF: 1.12 to 1.1973 highs
Anyone think the Swiss can sell enough gold or print enough Swiss Francs to save the Eurozone?
Their resolve will be tested, and their resolve will weaken as they lose more and more money. Ten billion the last time.
Though funnily enough, bankrupting the country will of course achieve their aims re the exchange rate.
Check out the charts pre announcement, some people made a bundle.
Well, here’s another nice mess you’ve gotten her into.
I like pies.
You lot are so shallow. Really- the most intelligent comment you can make on a political blog is about someones weight? So all women are hotties or notties? Good. Grief.
*waves* Hello Harriet! Put the kettle on luv.
too funny! Harriet thinks it’s ok for her hubby to run on an all-wimmin shortlist lol (there’s a difference between being fatist, feminist, post-feminist, and plain unfair) I voted Lib Dem….
I always make the tea in the meetings I chair- Servant leadership; it’s biblical.
It’s all a load of blubber
More chins than the Beijing telephone directory.
One man’s notty is another’s hotty. I actually would.
I think you are on the wrong site
But the fact that she sweats like a pig, is short of breath and can not lay off the chip butties is not trivial. This woman holds the keys to number 10 and looks certain to keel over at any second.
But it’s ok for say, Gordon?
Are you really that new round here?
OK and gordon are never permitted in the same sentence.
No point in holding the keys to the door if you are too fat to get through
Puerile and superficial, yes, but I’d never heard of her and neither have the other conspirators, probably.
Isn’t she one of those “experts” whose the BBC take out of the cupboard and allow them to pontificate on fk’all, the BBC would be lost without the garbage they allow on.
come on, she doesn’t sweat that much for a fat lass
Where have you been? As soon as there was talk of a coalition with the Liberals she was over all the news channels like a dose of salts and has been ever since? I’d never heard of her before mind.
Never heard of her till now.
Mind you I don’t pay much attention to what the Liberals say or do.
She’s not actually batshit like Hughes and Vince.
Unusually, very unusually for a libdem, she is often a voice of reason.
Yes. All women are either hotties or notties.
Haven’t you been paying attention to ‘When Harry met Sally?’
Yes. All women are either hotties or notties.
Weren’t you paying attention to ‘When H*ar*r*y met Sally?’
No.
Lets do a venn diagram.
We could even include the aspiring model with a borderline personality disorder and a pair of scissors.
There is a point here Ms Engineer. Accepted that a very limited amount of obesity is caused by by genes and endocrine disorders, the vast majority is due to bad diet and lack of exercise. If we do not like criminals or hypocrites telling us how to behave, then we are less likely to be swayed by those who have made other poor life choices, even though the possibility that any of these groups might have a talent in that area. We do not restrict our comments to women. You will have seen tasteless remarks about Fatty Prescott and Eric Pickles as well. I think I even made a comment about Cyril Smith a year or two ago.
Olly Grender has the choice and so do we. As for the blatant sexism of it all, I can only comment that I wouldn’t…
By that logic, we listen to Olly more than Guido I or II.
Although it may be true to say none resembles Kate Moss, I suggest you pay a visit to Specsavers if that is your observation on relativity.
Steady on chaps, all these fattist barbs are wounding our esteemed blog host to the core.
Hmmm. I suppose on that basis of judgment it would be insensitive of me to paste: “@AireyBelvoir hasn’t tweeted yet.”
So I will not paste it.
’tis ok, I’ve had my caffine now. I’d make a joke about dismounting (from my hobbyhorse) but just know where that would go!
Am not offended by the sexist fattistness of it per se, just *hoped* some of you lot have moved on a bit from when I did my apprenticeship in the 80′s, . Takes me back.
Crmm; I agree you lot can be bitchy about blokes too. I wouldn’t listen to a fat person telling me to eat 5 a day, nor Tony Blair about… anything really.
Things can only get worse.
It’s Olly because Olivia’s too posh for politics.
Charles Kennedy sweats like a pig perhaps she enjoys the odd tipple or three with him.
Oily Grinder:
The next time you are filling your fat face & over eating please think of the African children you are denying rsources to because of your sheer selfish gluttony.
Obese social democrats are the biggest of hypocrits – taking more than their fair share of food is morally repugnant with the politics they profess to hold.
How any Conservative can actually be in any sort of Governing Coailition with these fascist sandalistas is beyond me.
Blue / Yellow Labour out.
This also applies to fatty Prescott.
Does it apply to me? I used to be a fat Liberal.
That was when Liberals were British patriots & not the watermelon marxists that litter the political scene today.
Can you imagine Churchill calling for the British Army to be disbanded & incorporated under a French General in an EU Army?
Can you imagine Churchill committing high treason by calling for unelected EUSSR Commissars to have power over the British Parliament?
No, you cannot.
Rusty two faced liar Dave Cameron should have been a modern Liberal leader – for sure he is not a Conservative.
Blue Labour out.
She isn’t actually very fat if you take time to look at her arse.
Wierd double chin thing going on there admittedly.
No need for the winter fuel allowance with her in bed.
I’m not so sure – all that perspiration is going to lower her body temp, soak the sheets, lower your body temperature and induce hypothermia.
That and she might roll on top of you.
Tell you what, if she collapses on Nick Clegg he will come out looking like a cardboard cutout.
Guido, when you say biggest fan, what exactly do you mean?
By weight, surely.
German Constitutional Court rules that bail outs are legal, despite the fact that they are not.
The last hurdle, controlling the German judiciary, has been passed.
Welcome to the Fourth Reich – the EUSSR was truly born in a German Court this morning.
Be afraid.
Hope they have a good supply of buns and Big Macs.
You can just go to fuck, Guido.
I always thought I was your favourite Twitter sparring partner.
Olly says “Another fine mess you’ve got me in Guido”
Olly has a certain winning charm and femininity as opposed to being feminazi and charmless – like most of the Labour harridanry.
Does she do a turn then?????
