Hacking police find ‘bombshell’ emails: Now detectives may want to question James Murdoch

Yawn, Murdoch’s have won this and who gave a shit anyway…
When did they win? Soon they might end up behind bars.
“When did they win? Soon they might end up behind bars.”
The score is currently Murdoch 4 Watson 0, go figure…

Only in your mind mate. Rupert’s son was talking about closing Sun as well. Hope you will not miss page 3.
Boring, boring, boring. No phone was hacked, listening in to voice mail is no different than going through rubbish bins or blagging. All the papers including the Guardian do it or hire a man who can.
Today’s best joke. If old Rupert was still supporting Labour your comment could have been different.
The only people who can hack digital cell phones are the security agencies.
They were all at it including the Guardian and Mirror Group. The only significant story to come out of this is Tom Watson’s abuse of boys.
@ Gay Gordon
http://news.cnet.com/8301-27080_3-20077732-245/kevin-mitnick-shows-how-easy-it-is-to-hack-a-phone/
Anon that is not hacking into a phone. That is simply listening to a person’s voicemail stored by the phone company.
@Gay Gordon:
If you’ve got around 10 grand to shell out, you can buy the kit to pretend to be a GSM cell, run a ‘man in the middle’ attack and listen away to your heart’s content.
But never let the facts get in the way of a good pontification, eh?
“If old Rupert was still supporting Labour your comment could have been different.”
The best part of this whole business is that the Murdoch press will not back Labour for the foreseeable future thereby making sure Milimong loses the next election.
Pragnostic that is just an urban myth.
I refute that
@Gay Gordon:
Urban myth?
http://bit.ly/9oZTeE
You do need a bit more kit than that to ensure you hand-off correctly to a real GSM tower, but it’s definitely no urban myth. Note that the encryption can be turned off at will, in most cases without the target’s phone notifying them.
You really need to read a bit more before you dismiss stuff as urban myths – please play again.

Hi Gay Gordon
When did you come out? Cameron is going to let you marry, congratulations.
Anonymong – I’m just waiting for the lefties precious Gardian to get found out/closed down/blown up.
If Tom Fatson thinks he can tell us what to read, he’s seriously mistaken, although I believe the Beano is too highbrown for him.
I miss the News of the Screws, and quite honestly I couldn’t give a flying f*ck how they got their stories. Oh, and if I hear Milly Dowler’s name mentioned once more by your hero Millitw*t I shall be sick. Millitw*t is nothing more than a two-faced sanctimonious b*stard.
You haven’t got any choice do you. Its going to run and run for years.
Marmite dear boy, it’s not actually about telling us what we should read, it’s more about neutering and hitting paper circulations of the more popular parts of the press, so that the, much more labour sympathetic and anti-tory, broadcast news outlets (mainly the BBC) become even more dominant in news dissemination.
.
Exactly C.O.A.B. Got it in one! How has Leiber got all this influence though? I thought they were stony broke, so they can hardly bribe anyone to do their dirty work, and as for the lefties, why does anyone take any notice of them?
Are people really that thick?
Yes marmite. Fantastic success of comprehensive education, common purpose induction!
Battersea Dog’s Home is not very nice. Whenever the charity fundraisers are there with their TV cameras it is all smiles etc. but actually, for a dog its pretty nasty. And it pongs.
It pongs because bloody horrible dogs pong.
We could export them to Korea.
There’s probably a thriving Korean “community” somewhere in London that would take them.
Or maybe there isn’t, because the Koreans tend not to want to come to economic backwaters like the UK when they can make a living at home.
New Malden: a genuine community which slots in alongside indigenous Brits without generating any apparent friction. An added benefit from their presence is the establishment of several ‘quiet zones’ where public use of cellphones is frowned upon.
If this idea caught on elsewhere, Britain might become quite bearable.

I reckon there should be an amnesty for all newspapers covering all aspects of hacking provided all involved turn queen’s Evidence. Then we can all move on.
As my article in ‘Seen Elsewhere’ clearly states
Nonsense. We can’t ‘move on’ until the criminals have had their week in prison with the Parliamentary expenses fiddlers.
Central bankers like Mervyn King and governments are practising financial terrorism on it’s people. The bankers and politicians are getting rich, and you’re paying for it.
No mention of lost democracy? I “like” the way economics realists are described as “traditionalists”.
I switched sides so everyone would know me as a Mass murderer.
I still hate and loath Gordon Brown – the creature should hang for his wrecking of the social and economic well being of the UK.

TOMMY, by Rudyard Kipling.
I went into a public-’ouse to get a pint o’ beer,
The publican ‘e up an’ sez, “We serve no red-coats here.”
The girls be’ind the bar they laughed an’ giggled fit to die,
I outs into the street again an’ to myself sez I:
O it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ “Tommy, go away”;
But it’s “Thank you, Mister Atkins”, when the band begins to play,
The band begins to play, my boys, the band begins to play,
O it’s “Thank you, Mister Atkins”, when the band begins to play.
I went into a theatre as sober as could be,
They gave a drunk civilian room, but ‘adn’t none for me;
They sent me to the gallery or round the music-’alls,
But when it comes to fightin’, Lord! they’ll shove me in the stalls!
For it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ “Tommy, wait outside”;
But it’s “Special train for Atkins” when the trooper’s on the tide,
The troopship’s on the tide, my boys, the troopship’s on the tide,
O it’s “Special train for Atkins” when the trooper’s on the tide.
Yes, makin’ mock o’ uniforms that guard you while you sleep
Is cheaper than them uniforms, an’ they’re starvation cheap;
An’ hustlin’ drunken soldiers when they’re goin’ large a bit
Is five times better business than paradin’ in full kit.
Then it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ “Tommy, ‘ow’s yer soul?”
But it’s “Thin red line of ‘eroes” when the drums begin to roll,
The drums begin to roll, my boys, the drums begin to roll,
O it’s “Thin red line of ‘eroes” when the drums begin to roll.
We aren’t no thin red ‘eroes, nor we aren’t no blackguards too,
But single men in barricks, most remarkable like you;
An’ if sometimes our conduck isn’t all your fancy paints,
Why, single men in barricks don’t grow into plaster saints;
While it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ “Tommy, fall be’ind”,
But it’s “Please to walk in front, sir”, when there’s trouble in the wind,
There’s trouble in the wind, my boys, there’s trouble in the wind,
O it’s “Please to walk in front, sir”, when there’s trouble in the wind.
You talk o’ better food for us, an’ schools, an’ fires, an’ all:
We’ll wait for extry rations if you treat us rational.
Don’t mess about the cook-room slops, but prove it to our face
The Widow’s Uniform is not the soldier-man’s disgrace.
For it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ “Chuck him out, the brute!”
But it’s “Saviour of ‘is country” when the guns begin to shoot;
An’ it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ anything you please;
An’ Tommy ain’t a bloomin’ fool — you bet that Tommy sees!
Thank you Colonel.
Seems to me there is no point in Tommy fighting for this country anymore. It is just a subservient state of the EUSSR and the EUSSR does not deserve any defending. And when Tommy comes home he is just spat on by the Muslims and the swampies.
We need a revolution! Parliament is clearly not truely patriotic, I thought CMD would alter direction, but no. Parliament has out-lived its usefulness, we need a new Patriotic, preferably English, style of Government, this one is not working for the countries benefit, whatever party is in the chair!!
FFF FFS!!
And Kipling also wrote this:
They shall not return to us, the resolute, the young,
The eager and whole-hearted whom we gave:
But the men who left them thriftily to die in their own dung,
Shall they come with years and honour to the grave?
They shall not return to us; the strong men coldly slain
In sight of help denied from day to day:
But the men who edged their agonies and chid them in their pain,
Are they too strong and wise to put away?
Our dead shall not return to us while Day and Night divide–
Never while the bars of sunset hold.
But the idle-minded overlings who quibbled while they died,
Shall they thrust for high employments as of old?
Shall we only threaten and be angry for an hour:
When the storm is ended shall we find
How softly but how swiftly they have sidled back to power
By the favour and contrivance of their kind?
Even while they soothe us, while they promise large amends,
Even while they make a show of fear,
Do they call upon their debtors, and take counsel with their
friends,
To conform and re-establish each career?
Their lives cannot repay us–their death could not undo–
The shame that they have laid upon our race.
But the slothfulness that wasted and the arrogance that slew,
Shell we leave it unabated in its place?
Mesopotamia – written in 1917, and still as valid today as an expression of rage at the politicians who have abandoned the troops.
“If, drunk with sight of power, we loose/ Tongues that have not Thee in awe/ Such boastings as the Gentiles use/ Or lesser breeds without the Law/ Lord God of Hosts be with us yet/ Lest we forget– lest we forget!”
Offered for what it’s worth as a description of modern-day politics in the EU.
It was quite the fashionable thing to deride Kipling in the same crass terms that are currently attached to A.C.L. Blair; warmonger, imperialist. In Kipling’s case, the opposite seems true – a man whose chosen trade of journalism meant devotion to lost values of observation, truthfulness and lack of partiality.
You know you need to grow up when you make a Faebook group called “It Up The Bum” and laugh yourself silly when Facebook tells you that “Billy Bowden Likes it up The Bum”
I’m sick of all this Billy bashing, Billy is one of US not one of THEM. Billy is a true libertarian, in that he’s always taking the liberty and his arse is anybody’s, probably just for a small libation at the most. (Haha, only joking Billy
) Billy’s function on this blog is a cross between a court jester, an aunt sally, a scape goat and a fucking all round nuisance. He is like the piece of grit in an oyster which produces the pearl. He’s the new version of tat in a way, with the small caveat that he’s a nutter of a different colour, as it were. Tat was always being banned for the incessant posting of mostly bollocks, testing Guidos libertarian values to the limit, but with Billy I contend that Guido has proven those values beyond a doubt in that he’s given Billy free reign to express his unique pathology with the F5 button. Either that or he’s just too pissed to notice and/or just lost interest. Anyways, the truth remains that Billy has come here to learn from me and fellow windowlickers on this blog, and for that he must be commended, and furthermore be encouraged to become the best blogger that he could possibly be. To be brutally frank, most of Billy’s posting are utter shite, but I would argue that they are honest to goodness shite. Besides which he makes the rest of us look reasonably sane and sober, in a good light and with a following wind.
I rest my case.
He is One of Them – Billy’s admitted it.

Guido i see the R.O.I done well last night, does this mean the new Irish President does not have the Jonah curse?

Anyone heard from “Local Sleaze” recently?
Seems he is due to post something soon.
All the national-only scandals are getting a bit dull & depressing.
Time for a rotten burgh story again.
Nothing to report from Portsmouth, except for the regular planning corruption, councillors sitting on committees that award theselves contracts without declaring an interest and selling council properties to council officers and councillors. All in a day’s work and I am the facilitator. Boaz.
Is not local planning corruption tied to central planning corruption through the local government officers who act under delegated powers of Westminster instruction?
Doh – look at the NPPF.
The Practitioners advisory group is comprised of 4 members who wrote the entire policy proposal on the back of a fag packet: it includes Tayor Wimpey, and a planning consultancy called QUOD, whose client list includes Taylor Wimpey of course!!!
Also EDF, Land Securities, ASDA, Westfield… (oh doesn’t that remind me of Lord “Cashpoint” Levy.)
And the policy is due to be enacted at local levels through consultants already doing local authority work to the tune of 44% of council tasks:
http://www.bristol247.com/2011/08/02/gva-ranked-top-for-public-sector-work-39945/
Oh and guess what? QUOD’s man is a former Compulsory Purchase Expert from Manchester for the VERY SAME FIRM.
It’s a conspiracy theorists’ dream.
Great, makes our job here in Portsmouth much easier and even less transparent.
Well said Handy. Another Villa in it for you.

Can’t understand why Mrs May banned his organisation. It just puffs up his ego and quite frankly it’s antics just made them a laughing stock. I wonder what they’ll come back as after the rebranding?
Dunno, but I’m willing to bet a bottle of Talisker that the Met won’t indulge in mass arrests of his type of person…
The new Met boss is like a breath of fresh air. A proper copper doing a proper job. At last the socialist ghost of Blair has been exorcised.
So why did they arrest 172 people without reason yesterday, then?
Wouldn’t they have been better employed stopping the occupy gang shitting in St Pauls?
I wonder what the compo for an unjustifiable arrest is these days? Hope the Met gets stung for thousands.
Until St Pauls makes a complaint to the plod, there is nothing the plod can do.
@The Para
They were arrested to prevent a breach of the pe@ce.
Thought crime.
If that were true, then Chaudary and his lot would have been arrested last year before they burned poppies.
Breach of the peace my arse – this was the state stifling the voice of the British people.
The Met police is now the enemy of common sense and freedom, and needs to be excised from the body politic.
@The Para
But the state knows what is good for us!
I think the Home sec made a big mistake banning the muslims and i blame the police for over-reaction on EDL.
The best thing would have been to let them both have thier protests, any violence then nick em, If the left can occupy that church and surronding area then the freedom of expression and protest should be providied to all.
The Met won’t get stung for thousands, the Tax payer will, and the lawyers of course will be bunged thousands
Theresa May is one huge, dimwitted mistake without any help.
However the moron who made her Home Secretary and expected anything other than continuous idiocy from her, is the one really at fault. Step forward dickhead in chief Dave and take a bow.
Well, when you get Dave brainwaves like scrapping aircraft carriers and Harriers; and opining that we won’t need any at all for a decade or so, that might just tend to leave certain people feeling a tad uppity.

The situation is slightly different from April 1982 though isn’t it ?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_of_the_Falkland_Islands
In the event of a situation that pertained in the Spring of 1982 as there are assets in theatre and the base can theoretically be re-inforced within 24 hours as there is an air-bridge capability and you can bet that re-inforcements would be forthcoming irrespective of other committments and cuts…no UK government and especially a Tory led one could survive losing the Falklands…..as Mrs T almost found out to her cost in 1982…..but lket’s hope we don’t have to put that to the test
One UK hunter killer in the waters anywhere near their shipping would be enough let alone the Typhoon fighters ! any move by the sad old lush s in Argentina would be horribly expensive in lives and kit !
But we don’t need an invasion force this time as we are already there and the place is well defended.
But what will Dave do when the Spaniards invade Gib?
“Four Eurofighter Typhoon aircraft provide air defence for the islands and surrounding territories and have a secondary ground attack role.
The VC10 provides air transport and aerial refuelling for the fighters. When a fighter is launched it is almost immediately followed by the VC10 as changeable weather conditions might make diversion to another airfield necessary.”
Anjem is such a caricature. The funny part about a man who is himself an arch conspiracy theorist is that there are lots of people who think his group is supported by the American right and/or CIA. He certainly gets a disproportionate amount of airtime in America whenever they need a distracting bogey-man to interview for domestic purposes.
I think he probably likes young boys a bit too much like that Mohammed chappie (pboh) and we’ll no doubt find out about his dirty rogering sometime soon, inshallah.
Isn’t Anjem our man on the inside, luring all potential Jihadis into the security peoples attention?

Of particular concern is the BBC’s failure to tell the truth about Government spending; that it is currently rising; not falling.
Blaming our current poor growth on “Cuts” is simply an outrageous lie.
If the BBC cannot be truthful in this case; it has no right to public money, and no right to demand a licence fee.

Big tough ed milliebland, has spoken, and all world leaders have trembled.

Dave is very fortunate that Ed is Labour leader. If it had been his elder brother David he would have been able to speak with authority on international events and put pressure on Dave. As it is, no one listens to Ed, except the lefties at the BBC and their paper the Guardian.
You’ve hit the nail on the head…had Labour actually elected D Miliband as leader and not his useless younger brother E Miliband Labour would have probably been a shoe-in to be the government in 2015…as it is “Dave” must offer a prayer up every day for the fact they didn’t and the union dinosaurs went with the lefty candidate…it’ll still be pretty close I think as to whether “Dave” gets a majority but he’s evens to still be PM after May 2015 whereas if he were facing the elder brother I’m not so sure
No they wouldn’t! FFS! People have niether forgotten or forgiven Labour for what they did to this country. (they client vote ain’t enough!) DM would be seen as a Blairite nerd with a very bent hairdo and with some very dodgy links to Gadaffi. Just because he speaks better than his brother, it doesn’t make Labour anymore electable.
This “DM would make Labour electable” is merely some attempt by the ever lazy MSM commentariat to create a popular perception not based on any facts! (no change there then!)
I wish I belived that….never underestimate the gullibility of the electorate when faced with an onslaught by our state media on the Coalition for the blame all “failed” policies stretching back to 1997(they’re already doing it by rferring to past decisions as “government” ones failing to mention it was “Labour Government” and for cuts in expenditure….Labour are definitely electable even with Ed and Ed…and the fact that “Dave” has no clear message for HIS core vote who are splitting in all directions….some in fact would rather be out of government if it means seeing the LibDem party destroyed at an election .You see…when we get to campaigning time the crescendo from the media(BBC) will be deafening….remember that the BBC started saying 12 months before when they realised that Brown was probably unelectable(although Cameron almost actually delivered the impossible)that a “Balanced Parliament” would be best for the country and that it would in the national interest to deliver such a verdict…..for Chrissakes some voters even believed that in the event of no party having overall control all THREE parties would form a government…this time around the BBC will have plenty of ammunition to level at the TORY-LED Coalition mark my words

Welcome to the diverse UK . Female Eastern European Big Issue seller asks elderly Poppy seller to move away as he is affecting her sales!
The Big Issue has become a scam, run by and for the Romanian mafia. They are supposed to be in the UK on the basis of being ‘workers’ or ‘providing services’ under EU law and instead they are sitting on their asses begging. Theresa May should shut the fake ‘charity’ down.
I’ve taken to asking the Big Issue sellers if they have such a publication back home, and if not, why don’t they go back and start one?
For some reason they get all pissy.
The BBC should be on their fucking knees grovelling for being wrong about practically anything of importance, AIDS (It’s was gonna kill us all as well as gays) Europe and the euro, the competence of the Labour government to run the economy and AGW. They’re shite.
They do seem to be able to give quite accurate reports on the street value of cociane and other drugs when they cover crime stories, for some reason.

I’m sorry you have already made that comment
Who can forget those grey and black doom laden adverts with the ominous music and voice-over of the 80′s about the impending pandemic called AIDS and the fact that it would wipe out up to 60% of the World’s population by 2010 ??
Maybe the adverts worked?
Maybe the estimates of the number of practitioners of sodomy were on the high side?
I see that now they’ve got their “equality” and can victimise normal folk at will using Labour legislation, the estimates have dropped from a ludicrous 10% to 3% – this would make a big difference to the epidemiology.

I’m watching the antics of poor militwit with some amusement.
He’s becoming increasingly shrill as he struggles to get people to listen to him as he criticises the way the coalition is trying to get us out of our black hole.
The problem for militwit is that everyone remembers only too vividly that he was a minister in the last labour government that got us into this mess.

Gordon’s local beach is about to become the first place in the United Kingdom to be designated radioactive contaminated land.

“That was a disaster. Should never have put me with that woman. Whose idea was that?”
The MP for Kirkcaldy and Cowdenbeath is seeking a meeting with Defence Secretary Philip Hammond over the discovery of more than 200 particles at Dalgety Bay in the past few months.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-edinburgh-east-fife-15706800
That will be Phill doomed then….
There must be a hole in his hankie.
‘low-key’ radiative particles have been found for two decades on a beach at the commuter town,
http://www.fifetoday.co.uk/news/local-headlines/news_update_radiation_at_dalgety_1_1936320
So why the fook is Gordon blaming Phillip Hammond for something that happened on his watch?
Absolutely amazing. Dalgety Bay has been known to be contaminated for many years , certainly as many years as gordon has been it’s MP.
Certainly as many years as gordon was also Chancellor and then PM. yet he did nothing about it whilst he was in power and is now trying to say the present Government is to blame for not acting!
What hypocrisy!
Hammond should poke Brown in both eyes. Maybe just the one would do!
Ha! You’d have to have a heart of stone not to laugh!
If you want to find ‘radioactive particles’, you wouldn’t have to look very hard. They crop up all over the place, most of them perfectly natural. Cornwall, for example, is mostly a whacking great lump of granite, which is radioactive. There are natural outcrops of pitchblende in several places (Peak District and on the Solway Firth, for example) which if they were on a nuclear licensed site would have to be barriered off. Since they aren’t on nuclear licensed sites, you can sit on them and eat your butties if you like.
The only real problem these ‘particles’ could cause is if someone started eating them in quantity. Otherwise, they are about as dangerous as dogshit.
Dogshit is danerous in gordon brown form.
It’s called Radon Rn Atomic No 86 and it is a radioactive gas; houses vulnerable have to seal their foundations against seepage of the gas into their living quarters or basements as it is denser than air!
Well oh dear, Gordy has a job to do for his constituants, never mind Fife, Gordy will look after your interests, just as he has done in the House of Commons for you, serves you right you voted him in again after his show as a “PM”.

I saw the news on twitter earlier, TBH its nowt compared to Rangers FC, they could owe HMRC 45 million ish
Does being England manager give you immunity?
If not, it should do!
Typical bloody Revenue – we’ll probably end up with another foreigner in the job if Harry’s out of the running.
Mind you, Gary Speed’s doing a good job – Wales for the World Cup 2014!
‘Arry Redknapp has always reminded me of the Kevin Pollak character in Casino, Philip Green, who is described as being perfect for his job as the front man for the operation of the casino: “He didn’t know a whole lot, and he didn’t WANT to know a whole lot.” (i.e. about what DeNiro and Pesci knew about the Outfit’s operation outside Las Vegas)
The real concern that you will not see mentioned on the State Broadcasting Authority (The BBC) is that Greece and Italy will no longer be Democratic. The BBC and other media comrades are rejoicing that these countries will now be ruled by approved Brussels’s Technocrats. These Technocrat people are no more than puppets appointed by the back door by the German Chancellor Angela Myrtle. The French have of course already waved the white flag and their Petit President will of course blame Britain for their failed Euro experiment because “Ze Roast Beefs did not give us enough money”.
This is the third try at European domination by Germany and it has now succeeded, ironic that it happened this week when we remember so many lives lost trying to make sure this never happened.
Goodnight Democracy. It nearly worked.
“…it has now succeeded…”
You reckon?
The southern Europe@n countries are about to plunge the Eurozone into a prolonged depression, especially as Frau Merkel won’t stump up German taxpayers’ cash to prop them up. (There’s a reason for that – the German taxpayers are muttering mutinously.) Germany won’t do anything that might cause inflation in Germany because … well, not after the last time.
There’s a lot left to happen in the EU, and nobody is quite sure if the Euro will survive, or if it does, in what form.
The Technocrats may be ‘in charge’ at the moment, but they aren’t in charge of events. Neither is anybody else. Quite who will be left standing after the inevitable uncontrolled collapse is currently unpredictable, but it probably won’t be the Technocrats.
Major point though Eng that both Greece and now Italy have unelected governments with unelected policies. And it looks likely that France could go the same way.
They are being given no promises about elections anytime soon. How are they to get back their rights to democracy?
Can you imagine the UK or Germany trying to impose such an open ended dictatorship on their own people? They’d face an uprising.
Would they?
Brown even decided he didn’t fancy an election…
True but labour had already been elected in and we all knew he’d be forced to face the electorate within a given time frame.
The Greeks and Italians are not being promised that the unelected governments that france and germany are putting in place to rule them will be gone anytime soon.
Engineer says: “Quite who will be left standing after the inevitable is currently unpredictable, but it probably won’t be the Technocrats”. What usually happens after an uncontrolled collapse? There is then only one authority, the armed forces.
And – Dear Nell says: “Can you imagine the UK or Germany trying to impose such an open ended dictatorship on their own people? They’d face an uprising.” The UK is different to Germany. The Germans do love tight authority and obedience and who better to provide that than the armed forces, again! The UK as usual will stand alone on our little island because we don’t have any other option. But would we fight to save the Italians or the Greeks or the Spanish or the Portuguese? Even the war monger Blair would balk at that scenario.
The BBC is of course is not concerned about democracy. They themselves are very happy to continue without any form of authority from the people and only ever submit to a Labour run parliament. Indeed they are actively putting out propaganda to bring down this, the only government in Europe that has a chance of surviving this mess. Their self-belief in promoting the undemocratic and unworkable socialist agenda is unremitting.
Dangerous times methinks.
Italy and Greece are now under receivership to the E.C.B in all but name, the peoples of these countries are about to be tested to destruction financialy.
dangerous times – Anyway ?
It will depend whether the Greeks and the Italians accept the austerity package that their unelected governments force upon them.
Both countries are known for violent riots and that will be the flashpoint.
Likewise next year in France when they too face the inevitable of an empty cupboard.
Anyway – I hear what you say about the aftermath of an uncontrolled collapse resulting in military rule, but I suspect it won’t come to that (well, I hope not – obviously).
There have to be elections eventually in all the Euro countries, and whilst there was general popular support for the single currency and even for greater integration when things were going well, that might turn rather more eurosceptic in more adverse times.
A close family member visited Germany recently, five years after a previous visit. She was surprised at how much the country has deteriorated in that time, and she felt that the general morale of ordinary Germans is in a fragile state. They are not happy about their taxes, the product of their hard work, being used to prop up the economies of other countries. Merkel faces re-election soon; who knows what direction the German voter might go.
Those populations of those countries with ‘installed’ technocrats might live with it to see them through the immediate crisis, but they will want their say in due course.
Let us fervently hope that when the change comes in the EU, it’s a mainly democratic one, not a mainly violent one.
quote of the day Guido?
Which is the biggest mafia outfit, The Labour Union Coalition or The Murdoch Empire?
Yes we have two coalition parties in the UK – the ConDems and the Labour Union.
I know the Unions were not elected but when has that mattered to labour.
The EU.
I think the combination of the UMF, public sector pensions and Pilgrims amply qualify the Union-Labour gang as the more entrenched mafia.
NI are mere amateurs compared to those who run a system to extort billions from taxpayers to pay for pensions for bedwetters, salaries for union officials and UMF funds that are transferred to Labour for election propaganda.
WARNING!!!!! Virus spreading like wildfire on fb! It is a Trojan worm called koobface. It will steal your info,invade your system and shut it down! Do not open the link Chris Huhne scandal! If Billy Bowden requests you as a friend,don’t accept it,it is a virus. If somebody on your list adds her ,you get the virus too! Please copy and paste to your wall…confirmed on MSNBC and SNOPES…Please pass on..
Just like it was 3 years ago :

“Virus spreading like wildfire on fb! It is a Trojan worm”
So is it a virus, a trojan or a worm?
Or just a load of shit.
Calm down dear, it’s only a worm.
To get it via Facebook, you have to do two silly things in succession:
1. Follow up one of the stupid stories mentioned by Billy. It will result in you being offered a video, but you will be told that you need to update Adobe Flash Player to see it.
2. Agreeing to the update — this installs the worm.
The newest version of koobface can also be picked up by using torrents, according to a report of September this year. So don’t use them.
Microsoft’s own Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool will remove koobface. See
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/890830
for more information.
It seems that people are recommending a commercial anti-malware program called Stopzilla to remove koobface. But there are reports that this program is either malicious itself, or useless. The Microsoft tool works as well as anything you can buy.
[Waiting for smug crowing from Linux users such as the Paragnostic. I have to use Windows because I sell software for it.
Nah – I just wouldn’t use Facebook anyway.
And I do run Windows for some work-related stuff – I just never connect it to the public networks
Looks like the truth is dawning on the Tory backbenchers – what price a stalking horse in the next month or two if Cameron doesn’t pull his finger out over the Eurofiasco?
Something that has been said many times on this site and it’s taken 18 months to find out by blue labour, well I’ll go to the foot of our stairs, thick bunch of barstewards, is there any real Conservatives or do they all have yellow streaks.
In 2 or so years we WILL have PM Miliband.
and its Daves fault.
No it’s you thick bastards fault for voting Dave in.
Many of us said on here, the worse thing for any party would be to win that election.
Labour got away SCOT FREE from having to face up to the reality and mess they made and it was all your own fault.
The public have memories like fucking goldfish.
The markets would of crashed and the EU and IMF would of stepped in on Labours watch ala Greece and Italy and it would of destroyed them in the publics eyes for decades but you all sniffed a whiff of quick easy power and couldn’t play the waiting game anymore and dropped all principles like a ten dollar whore.
I dont live in Daves constitunacy so i didnt vote for him.
The biggest cu(n)t of all would be a vasectomy of Edward Balls!
Now if we could just excise 13 years of that post neo-classical endogenous growth, perhaps it won’t metastasise…
Never trust anybody that’s married to a Ladyboy !
@ Sir Pimple Timpleton
Congratulations.
Italy is now considering the full Monti after the sad departure of ever tumescent Silvio [I'll be back] Berlosconi and politics will miss a comical character.
Unlike Guido who promises Glenfiddle to caption winners and yet nothing materialises, I would like to honour our arrangement [on the older Berlosoni thread Nov 7] and had suggested donating your winnings to either Help for Heroes or the RNLI but have received no reply.
Will visit the site tomorrow for possible confirmation.
