Jonah’s Fraternal Curse

EDF Energy has been fined €1.5m for hiring someone to hack into a computer belonging to Greenpeace and spy on the swampies. Cheeky. It’s also probably also worth remembering that EDF Energy’s head of corporate communications is Andrew Brown, Gordon’s better looking and more cheerful brother. Guido is looking forward to another boisterous parliamentary performance by the former Prime Mentalist on this invasion of privacy…

            Hey, Billy! The Left have turned against the British worker, they’ve turned against the poor, their frequent homophobic remarks show they’ve turned against the gay and lesbian communities, now they’re turning against ethnic minorities.

            The Left has lost all purpose. It is officially intellectually bankrupt.

    their exposure to Italian debt is £261 billion which equates to 64% of Europes debt to Italy
    The Germans are also heavily exposed to Italy with £106 billion

    Meanwhile, the Grauniad is doing its best to prove it’s a heap of biased left-wing shit.

    An incident where the police arrested 156 English Defence League supporters gets a grudging mention but quickly dissolves into a rant about the Met being “intimidatory, threatening and aggressive”.

    But it had nothing to do with the EDL. Plod had, quite rightly, issued a warning that anyone (eg Muslims Against Crusades) disrupting the two-minute remembrance silence would be dealt with robustly.

    So the bit showing plod is prepared to arrest right-wingers is glossed over while he gets the full slagging-off for trying to prevent scum from burning poppies.

    Doh Homer, we have spent the last 12/18 months having meeting after meeting with no obvious results including one last week (was you asleep you TWONK). Clearly no clue and standing in for his big brother.

    Markets have the Euro dead. Padypowe rhas this at NO BET.

    By the way the EU rebate was reduced on the basis of the CAP being reformed. No reform so why give up the rebate.

    I’d also like to know why we would be happy with the EU budget being held at current levels (v quite obvious posturing). -20% reduction or we withhold by -20%. As the 2nd largest net contributor we have a great position on this. Try throwing us out and who pays for the ridiculous schemes out there.

      Well deary me there's a surprise !!! says:

      It’s been said before by me and others on this blog….when we backed the Opposition in Libya we had not the slightest idea whom we were actualy backing….there is a significant Islamist faction inflitrated by AQ in the NTC…we should have read the runes when elements of the NTC assassinated one of their own “generals” earlier in the campaign…it would not surprise me in the least that if and when “free and fair” elections are held that we see a significant emergence of an Islamic Party holding the balance of power in any government….same in Eygypt where the “Muslim Brotherhood” is in the ascendancy…seems to me that there are shades of Iraq here

        I’ve said it before !
        We should leave well alone these people in Arab/muslim countries need to be oppressed They need a brutal dictator to stop them killing each other , as soon as we interfere and remove the dictator they start killing each other again , and then after they have slaughtered each other for a while , they turn their anger against the so called liberators which then reunites them
        Then we leave and they start killing each other again will we never learn anything from history ?

    must go now
    i have to earn some more money so “Do nowt Dave” can give it away to a group of people who also hate us , and would like to see us removed from the face of the earth .
    So they can proceed with their quest of world domination ,

    I hate Blue Labour says:

    “Gordon’s better looking and more cheerful brother”?

    I’d hate to meet anyone who manages to be uglier and less cheerful than the fat Scottish Cyclops.

Ed Balls stretches credulity by claiming he isn’t ambitious

“I would love to be part of Ed’s Labour government but what I do next for me is not an all-consuming passion. I’m more bothered, in a personal sense, about getting to grade 8 piano by the time I’m 50.”
