Chris Bryant Replaces Richard Ingrams at the Indy

Guido has a sense that the Indy has, post-Hari, improved under the new editor Chris Blackhurst, the news values seem to have sharpened up a bit. It is somewhat questionable however that it is really as free from proprietorial interference as it claims on the masthead. Chris Bryant seems to have replaced Richard Ingrams as an Indy columnist, sadly his column isn’t quite as good as Ros Taylor’s parody of him, over which he threatened to sue the Guardian. Coincidentally Chris is a friend of Lebedev’s son Evgeny and was at a recent dinner party with the oligarch’s offspring. Evgeny “speaks regularly” to Chris Blackhurst, no doubt about the weather…
It is also said that the new editor is looking at the cost of the strip cartoon by Sally Ann Lasson. The current editor doesn’t find her as funny as the old editor Simon Kelner did, but then he is married to Sally…
Elsewhere the Telegraph is said to be contemplating hiring the Guardian’s feminist writer Tanya Gold for their political team. It would never have happened in Heffer’s day…















Wouldnt he have been better off replacing Hari?
Pants
Margaret Hodge and MP chums have questioned IPSA about their own expense rules- seems rather independent-not. Hodge would claim that 99.7 expense claims are accurate, I wonder if a proper auditor would come to the same conclusion??????
Guido, some digging is required I smell a rat. At a time when MPs are wrecking the pensions of everyone else there could not be a better time for independent assessment of MPs pay, pension and expenses. Why should their gold plated pension be reserved with the bonus of a house being given to them paid for the taxpayer????
His correct title is : Chris ‘underpants’ Bryant.
His correct title is Chris ‘underpants’ Bryant!
No, it’s Captain Underpants!
It’s your super soaraway Page Three Indy Boy
turning into a red top?
OMG !! He’s already managed to plagiarise half of my name and most of my wardrobe, FFS.
He’s a basket case.
He’s a typical attention seeking ugly stupid gay ginger
The laundry bills will soar.
They may vanish altogether
Is that a big yellow stain I see on his undies ??
Well this wont help them to be whiter than white.
Hmmmmmmm a little yellow, methinks !!
OMG, the Lasson cartoons. I had forgotten about those… I skipped over them when I used to read the Indy back when it was anti-Iraq. They were utterly pathetic!
You talk about mastheads Gwido
That turns me on
Like lashing myself to the Old Labopur mast (without knowing it)
Is that a Kojak ,with the new Jap’s eye len’s
One prick replaces another.
More like a wet fart replacing an old fart.
Ed replacing Gordon?
There is a rich goldmine of sordid, nasty, nefarious and brutal operations where we come from Guido
We find “Fleet Street” full of softies and greedy journalists who are easily bought

Very good, very good
That’s me sorted.
Excellent stuff. You’re brilliant Johann. If you have any trouble at the Indy I’ll try to get you back in the Guardian.
OMG !!
Why’s that guy got his socks stuffed in his Y-fronts ??
E x .
The Independent is irrelevant.
The I is successfully targeted at School-age readers, it is not irrelevant but rather ptentially dangerous.
Who the fuck reads newspapers anyway?

This is reaching scandalous, outrageous and unacceptable proportions
Who are these leeches fleecing the British taxpayer ?
They are sitting in Monte Carlo and other watering holes pissing on the British People

We are all in this together
…and did they make any political donations to the Labour Party?
None
According to the Director of Public Prosections
(Appointed by them)
Or individuals of the labour party?
plenty of lubricants on the shelf behind

The homos have a good system
When one is fired he has to be replaced by another
Regardless of his qualifications etc
That is called positive discrimination
which is contrary to any idea of the Rule of Law
Normal, they are different from you; they come from the breed known as Homo Slurpians.
Bigot!
Does that mean that one Homo Bishop in the Church of England has to be replaced by another Homo ?
And as my doctor always says
One plastic replacement arsehole has to be replaced by another plastic replacement arsehole
It is a medical fact…
It all sounds so natural
For real??

Never read the Indy. The DT is clutching at evermore flimsy straws. They’ll all be gone, in printed form, within five years or so.
Ms. Gold as a Barclays Bunnygirl should knock another few thousand a week off the circulation of the Labourgraph.

“whole way”… sorry
Too much druid juice…
Sally Ann Lasson? Tee hee.
Does she have any tattoos?
Maybe the Indy wants the first scoops on phone hacking?
And is the Independent itself a oxymoron?
We control the Indy do not vorry…
We will subvert you from the inside

The DT, once again moves closer to becoming a full-blown lefty rag.
The B@rcl@y brothers seem to have only bought the DT so that they could destroy it. It used to be the only broadsheet to make a profit, but now loses , millions. I mean, look at the circulations of the Guardian and Indy, clearly, left-wing broadsheets are the way forward!
The DT is just another component fo the conspiracy. Much like that ginger fake Heffer!
At least the Labourgraph has a few non-leftie bloggers.
Feminist writings in the DT.
Chaps at the club will be pleased. They have been writing to the letters page on this for years…
Actually, now I think about it it wasn’t for that. It was for more cricket coverage.

Will be interesting to see what subjects he chooses mmmm let me think what hes spoke about recently ………..
Todays glimpse of Great britain , was in way presented quite honestly , the PM was abroad , with many still thinking on the news reels of the riots , to make the comparisons to cool brittiania are not necessarily correct , for cool brittiania was about polished silver (having been given a good set of economic books) , and a confident brand of new things .Great Britain is not a weak fascilmile , it is a bit of marketing to say somthing about home and abroad , not too indulgent , a reminder perhaps and a perspective for all the events of 2012 , which some people will be happy to think on . Those expecting it to sell things as cool brittiana did, havent really thought about how people in others countries saw brittain in the riots . It perhaps helps tourism and the people who will be enjoying the tourist expereince and cultural heritage .
A more business targetted campaign is difficult as the premium brands of cool brittania are not really as much on peoples purchase list , british food does well at christmas and we do produce some high quality foods . as much as the banks and insurance are a little publically disliked , there is still business to be done , so realiable and trustworthy from competant companies who are skilled (if we no longer can correctly do sound financial , no point really ) , so a bit of back to good realiable trade and finance on competative margins , is perhaps a welcome port in these troubled times , that shop front may need a deep refresh , longer term its up to the companies to rebuild the reputation ,to keep customers .
The popes speech was most interesting on those that could discerne , we cannot live purely in the confines of a synthetic mind economy , but then my blogg name has been on similar lines for some time .
Dan hannahs thought that “the whole economic concensus since ww2 has been wrong” , may have been a little too reactionary , but it at least asked the question if the essential mechanistic underpinnings of manufacturing economies had been , shorted and rigged in impercievable steps by technology , to the all to reactive set up we now see of centres of money ,that require no reciprocity to location other than better returns.
Larry hasnt seen any sign of smoke yet , from HMS tyrant in Liverpool , seems as though they are still considering options , dont know if they have enough kevlar twill to go round .
God, you do go on a bit.
Chill out man.

“It is also said that the new editor is looking at the cost of the strip cartoon by Sally Ann Lasson.”
When it comes to cartoons you get what you pay for. I hardly need to tell you that.

I can draw a puppy
You’re hired. Show us your puppies.
… and from the text, it is not clear to whom Sally is married. 50/50 chance of being right/wrong.
Much better Jimmy.
Tonight’s Question Time has the vile Harriet Harman. Ordinarily I’d give it a miss when she’s on as I don’t like my blood to boil, but Priti Patel is also on the panel and she’s very yummy. She’ll hopefully tear Harman to shreds. Plus Vince Fable and Ian Hislop are on, so it should bring some lols.
Must-see BBC telly, then?
No celebrity cook?
Wot, no celebrity cook?.
No, plenty of cocks.
Its tempting to watch as Harman is extremely Dim and as usual will be able to conceal this fact.
unfortunately so is Patel. Probably worth 50p to suck you off, but a complete moron and, unfortunately, not afraid of showing it.
U2 can aspire to greatness, now let me think, the right thing to do, what is the right thing to do? (metaphysics question is lost on Harriet).
Not again? She obviously has nothing to do of an evening.
Why is Hattie on QT so often?
She needs to supplement her pension pot.
The Guardian is utter exploitive crap!

Dale Farm travellers still receiving benefits on illegal site
Families at Britain’s biggest unauthorised travellers camp are still being paid housing benefits by the council trying to evict them – even though it has deemed their homes illegal.
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/8782163/Dale-Farm-travellers-still-receiving-benefits-on-illegal-site.html
Now leave these nice Irish people alone
They have houses and a fortune at home
But they also have their ‘uman rights here in Broken Britain
I will represent them (for a large fee paid by the UK taxpayer)
Gave up caring 30 years ago.
If that isn’t a call to arms and a kick in the arse to encourage tax evasion I don’t fucking know what is.
FFS, why the fuck do I bother paying tax if the c’unts in charge are paying lowlifes like that?
“Rent and council tax rebates are being paid to around 25 of the “households” on Dale Farm, Basildon Council has confirmed. “
And how many of the council pen-pushers who have been paying housing benefit on illegal homes will be fired for gross incompetence ?
And how does it cost £18m to shift 31 sets of Pikeys ? For f*ck’s sake, that’s almost £600,000 each ! One missile would be cheaper and a damned sight more effective.
Don’t forget there are 150 overpaid lawyers involved being paid by Legal Aid
Defending the uman rights of those who allready have all their rights and more in Ireland
The cynical abuse of the taxpayer by the legal profession is obscene
It’s what we do best – plesae respect the majesty of the law
I could help – and it would be a pleasure!
Well bloody well get on with it then. You are all talk and no trousers – just like underpants in the piccy above.
“About 15 mobile chalets on the site are rented out by C Jenkin & Son, a company based in West Sussex.
A spokesman for the company said around six of its units were funded by the council through housing benefits.”
Isn’t greed great!
i dont really consider the pikeys to be at fault.ater all they are being exploited by vested interests, lawyers, ‘ooman rights activists ,media bigging up it all out of proportion ,shagged out old washed up hag faced actress paddy bb winner. at least we did’nt have to pay for an interpreter… did we ?
What’s bugging the modbot, then? I wish I knew because then I might be able to realign my comment, Guido.
I’m your biggest fan, BTW.
Do fuck off.

You’ve got one more chance to tell me you were joking.
OH MY GOD!!

Can you persuade the British taxpayer to bail us out again
My bonus of £1.24 million is in the balance now…
You should be in jail, as Max Hastings recently wrote
Not obscenely asking the British taxpayer to guarantee your fucking bonuses AGAIN….
You just need to talk to mandy or bliar (or fred the shred with his lovely annual pension) they all have plenty of money, they’re socialists and they will want to do the decent thing and help (bail?) you out.
Isn’t that called scraping the barrel?
Has Britain no pride left ?
Flogging ma
Flogging major newspapers to doubtful and violent foreigners
Do you expect those newspapers to become anything but an international disgrace ?

Apart from you, nobody gives a flying toss. Now go out into the real world and get a JOB.
The only ‘passing apathists’ as you call them are labour.
brown, bliar, bullyballs, the militwits et al are all hoping we are conveniently forgetting the travesty that was the labour government of the last 13 years.
*Economic incompetence on a scale never seen before anywhere in the western world.
*Profitable personal friendships with tyrants that turned some labour folk into million/billion-aires.
*Wars waged on lies that left Dr David Kelly and thousands of other innocent people dead…..
Rest assured we are NOT forgetting!

Something has gone seriously wrong in America in very recent years.

They have succumbed to Al Gore’s global warming scam.
Gordon Brown lectures at their Universities.
And they think Pippa Midleton is the Queen of England.

Not to worry – who reads the dead tree press much anyway.
Best to stick to Guido’s Blog.
What!? Billy bollocks nonsense? No thanks!
Bill is far superior and a thousand times more genuine than anyone on the graudian including polly twaddle or sirmichael twite so don’t knock him!!
If you want the the hits, stop moderating the things you don’t like. You are Libertarians, are you not?
*smiles*
This blog is to Libertarianism what John Prescott is to vegetarianism.
John Prescot showed how to live with Bulimia. He managed to control it in a way he remained a fat fucker. Amazing.
A simple question – if the recent consumerist boom was fueled by way of excessive borrowing, which is no longer available, then surely the market has to adjust to a more logical pattern of consumption. In other words we have to live within our means and accept a lower more affordable standard of living.
Why then are we looking for and chasing growth? Surely the ‘market’ has to level out at the new lower affordable rates of consumption (wherever that might be) first?
This is not a recession it is a lowering of consumption to affordable levels and so, in my opinion, throwing printed money at this market adjustment is not logical.
Agreed. *Growth* is a red-herring. I suppose they like to talk about *growth* because the world population is forever growing and economies need to keep up with that growth to stand still.
It all stems from the post-war years when everyone was encouraged to fuck everyone else to increase the population.
Fuck knows why. We had plenty of people already. The third world cottoned on to this Western reproduction-drive, via the BBC, and went at it like rabbits, thus exacerbating the problem.
Why encourage population growth? Well, there are numerous reasons for governments imploring people to procreate but I’m going to roll a cigarette and let you ponder the whole sorry mess.
Wrong.
Money Velocity was kept high using debt, despite the slowing effect of taxation.
Money Velocity can be kept high by lowering taxation on time-exchange while the debt is repaid.
We expose hahish smokers, we exploit them to fuckery, completely ruin their lives, then warn them of the dangers of lung cancer. We are vultures.
What the fuck were Balls and Brown doing?
Even if health authorities can’t afford their PFI hospitals and close them down. The legal obligation of those authorities is first for their private contracts and second for their patients.
Ed Balls should hang his head in shame, but that is no way near enough.
Now you see what happens when they let those indispensable Pilgrims off front-line services!
Who’s going to do all that fancy cash-flow forecasting in the NHS if the nurses don’t?
The taxpayer paid for this camera. Thanks suckers.

Oh! You’ve stolen my theatrical prop! What am I supposed to do now?!!
Brillo’s This Week is back tonight after Question Time! Yay!
I’ll get me coat.
How the hell can this lousy rag keep calling itself “The Independant” ?
How can you sully the cause of Libertarians the world over?
Hands up those that have ever read it
I’ve read it. Once. On the Tube. Someone left a copy on the seat.
As far as I remember, the pictures were quite good.
“Chris Bryant claimed over £92,000 in expenses over the five years leading up to the 2009 scandal over MPs’ expenses. During that time he flipped his second-home expenses twice, claimed mortgage interest expenses that started at £7,800 per year before rising (after flipping) to £12,000 per year. He also claimed £6,400 in stamp duty and other fees on his most recent purchase, and £6,000 per year in service charges. A claim that he made for £58,493.26, almost three times the annual maximum, in 2004, was disallowed.”
For a Christian with principles he has rather dodgy habits doesn’t he?
Tell us something interesting.
Sorry, nell. I take that comment back. News now and the QT. WHOOPIE !!
Nell, someone has to pay the homosexual bill, in fact when he was asked about the homosexual bill he said “just pay the bloody bill or they might not send us anymore willing chaps to play with”
in a perverse sort of way this cu=nt deserves some praise!
to be exposed poncing about in you underpants then turn up for work , pontificate about the morals of others while being sober ….. now that takes some balls.
and this elastic arseholed, pervert fucker, gets to legislate over me

It’ll be amusing to see how Harpic spins her way out of the PFI scandal on Question Time. Priti Patel looks lovely, so at least there’s someone to offset the hideousness of Harpic.
You didn’t really expect the BBC to allow a question on that topic, did you?
Who’s in the corresponding photo that Bryant took?
How did he get his shadow cabinet position again?
Tom Watson ?
Well done to the teenage girl in the audience who just said Labour got us into this mess and the coalition’s clearing it up. Not all teens are rabid lefties.
Hislop just made the most hilarious face at Harpic talking rubbish. You can tell he’s about to rip into her.
Priti Patel is going both barrels at Harpic. Great stuff.
Unfortunately Patel doesn’t come across as very bright. While Harman remains in denial of Labour’s failures and continues to spout simplistic nonsense, she does at least speak in a controlled and confident manner, however insubstantial. Patel comes across as a very poor speaker.
Patel was shit, Harman should have been crushed , when will the Conservatives put someone up who really understands the mess Labour left us in. FFS!
Harman still in complete denial. She sits there with a stupid smug grin.
How come Dimbleby let’s Harman get away with talking shit?
Have you noticed how I always sit at Dimbum’s right hand ?? That’s so I can nudge him when I’m losing the arguments.
well spotted
Two points,
The wee girl who talked about her parents lesson on only spending what you can afford was the most effective contribution of the whole dreadful programme. Well done those parents.
What sort of person would walk into a polling booth and place vote for that stupid fucking Harman woman?….. they’d have to be thicker than pigshit
Or like millions, trapped on benefits, thanks to Gordon Brown and his chumps, Balls & Red Ed.
How nice to see the very charming and very attractive Priti Patel on QT, what a shame it is spoiled by having to look at horsefaced old toilet harpic bitch cow on the same screen, fuck off you HO bitch twat.
She is indeed Priti but tends to use too much filler whilst her brain engages her gob. Quite the opposite of our own Ewanme, then.
Ok, so she’s thick – but she goes like a fucking train and isn’t too fussy about who she lets bang her.
God. Having managed to just about sit through Harman on Question Time (the mute switch was employed a couple of times), Jaqui fuckin’ Smith’s now on This Week.
I can’t take it.

Who’s the guy that has been fingering the mains socket?
Nigel Kennedy. Unfortunately, he’s a phenominal violinist, and he’s from just down the road from me, so I can’t hate him too much, the poor misguided lad!
I have to agree – why are these 2 fat Slags infecting the airwaves
Need a hug darling?
Jackie lard arse Smith is a troughing Hunt *sniggers*.
Remember me. Chuckeee!
Yeah. Na night till tomorrow.
Travellers? When are travellers going to travel or take up permanent residence in property?

When is a traveller not a traveller ?
I is supporting travellers rights not to travel. Good publicity innit. On the fiddle!
So many fakes.
That brings joy to my heart.
Oi! Shitty, Chrispy Brownpants. I want me sausage back. You still have to pay. On second thoughts, keep it. It has probably been stuck up someone’s elses sh!tter.
The Pantsman Cometh…
I am turning into a Bernard Manning lookylike!
Poor wee man. He can’t afford clothes.
I am turning into Bernard Manning.
The PM spoke rather well , in the face of the lack of political ability across the pond and channel , I sometimes wonder if some leaders can even reflect on this disasters origins let alone , stabilise it , Portillos analysis was starkly simple , from personal debt to supra national debt via series of political weak links (he said mistakes but ruins ecnomic policy was hardly mistake)
harriets framing of debt was of course referring to on balance sheet and labour borrowed to keep employment which was unsustainable , one lib dem at conference made a startling analysis , 80% of the jobs created were in the public sector , an unsustainable model .
I dont know about the ruin being a political prophylactic , certainly would think modelling a concrete suite would do .
The new york crash of 1929 , was a sort of mass agreement to do nothing , one man on the trade floor realised what could happen so began buying stock , encouraging others to do so , he managed a short rally , before the sell returned and the crash occured . On one level the city trying such a thing in such adrift politics is reminiscent , but even a tragic event can be managed with a future in mind . The weird thing for me is how germany cant see what it will do. i think we should do better than most if it becomes as bad as some think .
BEEP! Please someone unplug this idiot Dalek.
His argument could be encapsulated in a single statement which applies equally to Greece as well as the United Kingdom.”There-is-no-money-left-we-have-spent-it-all-living-beyond-our-means-on-worthless-public-spending-vanity-schemes-and-employ-too-many-people-in-the-unproductive-public-sector-which-we-can-no-longer- afford-to do -that -and-must-cut-public-services-and-jobs-and-pensions.You-can-strike-all-you-want-but-the-state-cannot-afford-to-agree-with-you.So-you=are-indulging-in-a-totally-pointless-exercise-which-will-only-make-things-worse-for-the-country-and-you !”
Is that you nell?
We do allow our patients access to the internet.
I used to know Evgeny Lebedev back in the early noughties when he lived on Montpelier Street in Knightsbridge . He had a serious drug habit and was barely functional most of the time. I always thought that if it wasn’t for his dad’s wealth that he’d probably be on the streets begging.
So, Bryant’s most significant and enduring contribution to journalism was the flaunting of his gusset?
Everybody had fun and no harm done.
Meanwhile, if ever there was a gang of villains whose names should live forever in the annals of infamy, it’s alive and well and ponceing around Westminster; and the only question that fazes that lot is whether they could be fidding their expenses with less effort.

Aha…..what I’ve always suspected, LIGHT IS NOT A CONSTANT! Einsteins theory is under serious threat as results from Cern show that they have boosted ‘particles’ to beyond the speed of light! In truth the famous Einstein formula of E = mc2 only needs a bit of adjustment. What’s the betting the ‘c’ needs to be replaced with a formula fluctuating between 2 poles of an octave of vibrations?

Fucking scientists.
The universe is flat except for that stretchy bit with the balls in it.

I have dark matter between my ears.
Does this mean that Ed Balls is right after all ?
Ed Balls is wrong – period. That’s one law of physics that is immutable.
c remains the same.
No need for adjustment in the mass-energy equation.
Did you do english lit at university or something?
No I did music
“or something like that”
Music = yes
Its more than likely that global warming is causing the discrepancy. Build more wind farms and increase APD. That’ll sort it.
If those results are kosher, no it doesn’t.
does anybody seriously believe that any low level personnel changes in the british media will make any difference to its rabid support of the status quo? – honestly. What is most obviously highlighted here is the incestuous nature of the beast – replicating the similar trend amongst the political elites – they should all be burned at the stake after being flogged and hung out to dry ………

I think the man on the train is uncomfortable sitting next to someone reading a web page with a picture of a y-fronted man on it.
Maybe I should slyly rub my leg against his?

Has anyone considered the possibilty that Harry Stanley had a table leg in a polly bag as he was planning a blag and wanted to look like he had a gun in the bag. Certainly worked then.
Just listening to Toady, Humphrys + Oborne & McShame on the triumph of euroscepticism. H dismissed O’s assertions of BBBC bias, called in McS, who blamed the bankers, then derided ‘people like Peter & Nigel Farage’. Depressing.
I wouldn’t want to have a bash at the bankers as its all too obvious. But what the hell were the french banks doing handing out loads of money to Greece? (they were probably asked nicely by someone).
As for the housing bubble: how the hell did they NOT have the sense to notice they were throwing money away. It cancels out any sort of “we know what we’re doing” shit that they make out all the time.
I was wrong on that one by the way, I expected a slump in house prices in 2003.

I’m disgusted at the way people are vilifying travelers. Leave those gyppoes alone! I’m sick of the persecution these pikeys suffer. Stop harassing the tinkers! Pikey gyppoes have rights too!
I am a traveller and I demand to stay where I am.
Of course you do! Kerching!
