The king of helpful interjections has piped up this morning. If France wasn’t already in enough trouble, the Honourable Member for Kirkcaldy and Cowdenbeath has thrown his cursed spanner in the works:
“France is in danger of being picked off by the markets in the coming weeks and months.”

But isn’t this a reverse curse?
When he praises something it bombs and when he puts something down it soars.
Ou est Cowdenbeath?
I never thought there will be worse once than Blair and Brown until we ended up with Cameron and Osborne. Bring back Brown.
You must be as bonkers as Brown.
Anon they are all politcians, “guided” by advisers who are supposed to be experts in their fields (but with party leaning so there are no impartial judgements), with the best will in the world, a politcian cannot be an expert in everything.
Qui est ce Godon Brun? Quel qu’un tosser et pusher de merde.
I agree with Contrarian Curse. I shall now pop off and buys some French bonds before the news of Broon’s comments leaks out and the yields fall …
Looks like France will experience a MEGA BOOM and will become the dominate force in the world.
You can always bet on Johna to be wrong.
You are right. Sell anything German.
I think the “France is in danger….” bit is relevant here. He’s not predicting anything.
He’s just looked upon the issue with his hateful eyes; under which gaze all things wither.
Just let the markets do the worse. 7% bond rate in one or two EU countries is nothing , in China and India rates are around 10%. In the 80′s and early 90′s bond rates were over 10%.
When banks goes under just let them go under. UK government has to worry about real UK economy and how to create real jobs in UK.
Government cannot create jobs.
Of course Governments can create jobs. Gordon and Tony managed to create thousands of jobs in the public sector while they were in government.
In this case I have a distinct feeling that “the exception proves the rule”
This could, however, be the exception to the exception proves the rule.
Oh… my head hurts
I was always only really best at being a Number Two
Heads will roll
Viva la Revolution
Comrades – first Greece, then Spain, then Italy, then Portugal, then France….oh joy!
Long Live the Euro!!
Zut alors mes little Rosbifs…Ze Banc of France is as secour as ze Line Maginot. Eet ez not ze Euro zat Brown insults but France. I speet on eem.
Blinky, you and your mentor Gordon are both as mad as a box of frogs – whith a pit viper crawling around the outside of said box… HOWEVER, there is one thing I have to thank you both for. If it wasn’t for you two nutcases, we would have been taken into the Euro by the arch-paychopath Blair.
For that, and that alone we owe you our thanks. I believe that this can best be repaid by our ensuring that you both get free, quality psychiatric treatment until the end of your lives.
Why doesn’t the fat, one-eyed, bogey-eating has-been just shut the fuck up?
he is just fucking the government, or at least he thinks he is
French banks are heavily invested in Italian banks
British banks are heavily invested in French banks ………………..
Surely that means they’ll be A-ok?
Exactly! My money is on those “cheese eating surrender monkies” finding a 5,000 ton gold nugget in the Seine!
Thanks Gordon – yah bast*rd!
Since last year, the UK Border Agency has been operating a system at four major airports that means passengers on some flights are security-screened before take-off and then face a “light touch” inspection on arrival.
The “smart zone” trial has come to light as the Home Secretary faces continued criticism over a separate, secret move to relax passport checks at all airports over the summer.

How many times has he signed in at the HoC over the last 6 months?
Giving his useless advice in France is much more lucrative.
He’s not in France, he’s in Russia. He wouldn’t dare say that on French soil.
Then that means the Rooshans are f*cked on the basis that wherever Jonah travels his curse travels with him.
Does it really matter where he is?
He’s earning money for being useless. That’s reason enough.
Perhaps that nice Mr Brodie Whatsisname could get his arse in gear long enough not to let the bugger back into the country: we’ll accept 100,000 mad muslim illegal immigrants as long as we can keep Broon out – you know it’ll be cheaper and better in the long run.
I hope Gordon is not following my example in Russia. There is neither enough money or young girls in it for both of us.
One by one all the right wing governments in EU are falling! Put another way governments that implemented cuts are falling.
Our government will be safe then.
Soft! What curse through yonder windbag breaks?
100
100
surely that means France are safe as houses?
Exactly what I was going to say: Curse from Jonah = guarantee of future safety
Everyone relax , Gordon says the end of the world is nigh
Have you ever seen a french house that hasn’t got a few big cracks in it?
Or a maternity unit?
Isn’t this the wrong way round for Jonah’s curse – if he had said that their economy was fine then it would be the curse.
Since he has said they are in danger of being picked off then France will probably experience a boom and that cnut Sarkozy be re-elected by a landslide.
Why hasn’t Brooon been hauled before a select committee to explain why he’s being paid when awol?
What is up with the other political parties that they’re not sticking it to Leiber?
Because they’re all the same?
Excellent comment from the Quentin Letts story =>
“My Lords, Ladies and Genmum, pray silence for the ample figure of Thomas Anthony Watson, MP and Witch Finder General for West Brom East [or should that be Mafia finder?]. Member of the Noble order of maximum claim for food sustenance, proud winner of the M&S Pizza wheel for services to shopping and recipient of the £100,000 expenses for his shared flat with the Hon member for the protection of Shipwrecked Monkeys in Hartlepool. Now what was that saying about Glass Houses?

Why are taxpayers still being fleeced by this fiscal lunatic?
Because we let him.
Gordon who……?
Gordon Bennett!
why does he not shut up . He was the worst Prime minister
in the last 100 years and just as his bag carrier Red Ed Miliband
said , he just does not get it .
Fiathco!
If you go back more than 100 years, who was worse than him?
Ethelred the Unready?
Tsk. Youngsters. Heath was far, far worse than Jonah. Not that Jonah is any better than useless and a curse to all who suffer him, but Heath was immeasurably nastier and more damaging.
“Once he left my breath stopped stinking of shit”.
should they tax cheese then?
or underarm hair on women?
France is in danger of being picked off and eaten like a booger from a dead mans nose….Mmmmmm booooger
Sarah: ‘my Gordon calls it his escargot’

I knew greece,Portugal, spain were heading towards trouble,but no-one has mentoned France.
Slighty O/T
Why dont people point to Iceland in a way to deal with banks, and why dont politicons mention Irish austerity ?
French banks lent a lot of the money which isn’t going to be paid back. Plus they overspent as well.
And when France goes tits-up, it’s auf wiedersehen deutschland.
Look on the bright side, we’ll be able to buy cheap apartments in Munich. Somewhere in Schwabing will suit me fine.
That’s great. As long as the Germans don’t start piling on tax for ex-pats on their holiday homes, like some other European countries do.
Because Iceland had to promise to join the EURO to get out of its mess.
How will the markets will react once it dawns on them that Iceland is about to join the super-debt nations?
Panic I expect.
Banks lend you money.
Unless you never ever want to borrow any money ever again, telling them to piss off is a bad move.
As for france, its economy isn’t great, but not as bad as other places. And there have been one or two things done to try to avert debt problems. Reform of pensions being the most obvious and bloodiest.
Whatever they do, the numbers don’t add up. That is their fundamental problem. It can be delayed but not resolved.
numbers adding up? How unfrench.
You need a banking system. But it doesn’t have to be made up of the same scam artists.
If Cameron wasn’t in the banks pockets. he and Osbourne would be setting up a whole host of new banks, inviting in private investors and, longer term, floating them on the stock market. All in the name of competition.
Are the banks going to be complaining about more competition? probably but they’re put in a corner.
Iceland was never the same after Kerry Katona appeared in their adverts.
Because it’s easier to have a go at Greece.
Surely France will be fine then if Kirkcaldy’s finest predicts its doom…..
Caroline flint on the telly saying the government are killing the solar industry by cutting the feed in tariff.
Utter bollocks if an industry can’t succeed without subsidy it does not deserve to be an industry. And what about her chav voters who are having their electricity bills inflated to pay for solar leccy which only works during the day, when the sun is shining and in the summer?
I have to put my kettle in the sunshine and hope it boils.
Higher leccy bills would mean greater benefit-dependency for Labour’s core voters. Trapped into voting Labour, forever.
You can see why Flint’s in favour of it.
How does a cheap bit of solar pannelling, screwed onto your roof by Aleksander (MA Hons) cost? Few grand max? So how come they charge about £12k? Another Ponsi scheme.
Bugger. I wanted one of those solar thingies.
The government pays you at least 40p per unit generated, then sells it back to the consumer at around 14p.
Dead clever, that. Sound economic sense by the lefty-greenies as usual.
One might note that the G20 was oddly lucky.
The worst weather in France (since the storm that killed 50) was happening just down the coast causing all sorts of flooding. And then after the conference a mini hurricane caused damage all along the coast, with waves the likes of which “never happen” on the med crashing through sea front businesses, and making a right mess.
You might think that God was telling them to make sure Gordon doesn’t go back. Well, you might if you’re a bit medieval in your thinking.
…and God looked down upon what he had created and was not pleased and he sent the rains to drown everyone because they were wicked.
Bunch of c***ts (he said) I’ll start again.
He missed though.
Can’t get the staff nowadays. It’s the same all over. Even up there. Thank Dog I am not going…
We’ll ban her next time any civil servants show the Home Secretary up as inadequate.
Par for the course really with that ignorant, obese, ugly mare.
Hope she’s not allowed to forget it in a hurry.
Not sure you surmise it correctly. Everything Jonah says is rubbish and usually a lie so he may have inadvertently and annoyingly saved the French from financial melt down.
All this talk of Northern europe and Mediterranean europe. As France is in both camps, what’s it gonna do?
Maybe the Languedoc will split off and join Sterling – there are enough retirees in the Dordogne to keep it going for a bit…
Could be a reverse takeover. They have probably got the spondulix to buy Old Blighty up.
Bring back the Plantaginets
The euro crisis is a big crisis. It needs a financial genius to sort it all out.
Someone who understands economics..someone who knows finance. Someone who managed to persuade banks to take state control and then restructured the economy and passed regulation to prevent the disaster happening again.
Herman van Rumpoy, step up to the plate.
Cometh the hour, cometh the ……
Oh, bugger.
Never mind. There is always Victoria’s Secret…
Simon Cowell could do a better job – or how about Bernie Ecclestone?
Both are hard businessmen, but at least they’re making money.
If the euro is causing all this trouble. Why don’t they just scrap the euro?
I think the Euro needs rebranding – how about calling it the Deutsche Mark ?
Reichsmark?
Groats work for me
So none of the trouble was caused by overspending, debt, bad management of the countries, and being basket case economies, who were used to defaulting on debt through inflation?
Course not. You must be mad to even suggest that the wise and sensible rulers of the EU which has not had it’s accounts signed off for 17 consecutive years could even consider such things.
But the ero made it possible for the little poor countries to overspend. Greece is full of german luxury cars, the germans did not complain when the greeks suddenly had a currency that made it possible to buy all they could export to them.
If you have cancer, re-name it to something else and hurray – you no longer have cancer.
Quite so. This is the idea behind political correctness.
Rename nasty things and they are not so nasty.
For instance, when I was a lad people had VD. Most unpleasant so it was changed to STD. Disease sounds nasty so we’ll change it to STI. Mich better.
Similarly, we used to have slums. Unpleasant places slums – let’s call them inner cities. These became synonymous with black ghettoes so they bcame deprived areas. We are never told of what they are deprived.
The important thing is to make sure that the inhabitants feel no guilt or remorse for their chavvy behaviour.
All part of socialist la-la land ‘thinking’. Worship the bogus.
“Worship the bogus….”
McMental does that
Where exactly is Jonah giving these pronouncements from? Is he in the H of C – has he gone to the Mount in Edinburgh to give us the Sermon from the Mount ? Is the son of a Manse taking a stance? Has Sarkozy upset him like NI? Has he called Omaha to discuss? Did he not indeed save the world? Ed was agreeing with Sarkozy – has he changed him mind<
All this and more.After the break.
Thank God he was vetoed by Cam & Co from being contender for Head of IMF..
He ain’t in Canterbury!
I can confirm that.
Can anyone point me to a website which explains in figures what Jonah did during his tenure to the British economy? Where were we when he started and what was the state when he finished. I need to send an explanation of the effects of his mismanagement to a Canadian friend…….
don’t bother they won’t believe you – they will be utterly flabbergasted that we allowed an unelected, finiancially illeterate moron to be our PM.
Those statistics might have been shredded in the frenzy.
I don’t know about a website, but there’s a book called “Gordon is a Moron: The Definitive and Objective Analysis of Gordon Brown’s Decade as Chancellor of the Exchequer” by Vernon Coleman that might do the job.
Coleman is a major weirdo. He has to publish his own books – says it all.
Is this the same Gordon Brown, the Financial Colossus that bestrode the World Stage, a close ‘kitchen friend’ of Obama?
Probably the Treasury website and the Office for National Statistics, but be prepared for a lot of digging. They don’t make this stuff obvious, in case people understand it.
Mr Broon, when ur th’ cooncil comin’ aroond tae fix mah leakin’ gutters.
Gordon Brown is a bad Terry Jones sketch from the old Monty Python days. Unfortunately there is no camera pan over to John Cleese at a desk promising us something completely different. Unfortunately there IS nothing different where His Ominousness is concerned.
I’m just waiting for him to deny that 2012 will be the year of the Apocalypse. Then we’re all Huhned.
Guido 10.39

The Penguin
you shouuld have seen him on Fox last week explaining how he saved the world.
If you’re disagreeing with him then the curse of Guido means they really are fucked.
For a man that saved the World it seems Brown missed quite a few countries!
Talk about stating the bleeding obvious……….But then Jonah did save the world once!!
Wasn’t really long lasting though was it?
Le chat (ecosse)
Shouldn’t it be “Le fin” rather than “La fin” ?
Yes it should.
Have you seen Jonah McDoom last expense claim which included the cost of a high tech laptop pus extras & of course all charged to the fcuking stupid Tax Payers….I really do hope its a unbreakable, super strong military spec type or will it be like the Nokia mobile phones he used to smash up while he was in No. 10. every week. Did you see how much Nokia’s share price dropped after Jonah was dragged out of Downing Street, must look up which Computer Co’s S/P has recently gone up, on the speculation of constant repeat orders because of Jonah’s uncontrollable temper tantrums, still believe it would be cheaper for us fcuking stupid Tax Payers to have in sectioned & kept locked up in a Scottish Secure Unit or better still just terminated !! That would save a lot of our money.
I’malways sad that the news does ot mention fatal illness for th Brown fumbler
What the fuck does he know about the markets ?
He’s never bought and sold anything of his own in his life.
Other people’s stuff yes – like gold ?
Is there any truth in this rumour \ humour?
Apparently Gordon wanted his constituency office redecorated at (vast) public expence, so asked for quotes ( clean ones that did mention his fiscal capability). Demanding that everything should be painted red with plush fixtures and fittings he ordered that the entire ceiling should be semtexed with squirls representing £, $ and Euro signs. The decorater asked surely he meant “Artexed?.
Allegedly Gordon threw a fit (is that a new brand of mobile phone?) shouting “Semtexed – Artexed whats the F@@£ing difference!!”
