      Here we have the country in actual meltdown, with the idiot Brendan Barber bringing the country to a near standstill on Wednesday.
      What do the fools in Government do, give millions to Africa to combat climate change!
      If it is absolutely necessary, where is the urgency in these stringent times? Could it not wait for a year or two?

        I’m not sure losing the 5-a-day coordinators will bring the country to a standstill. I think the wealth generating bit will enjoy the traffic being a bit less congested
        and that’ll be the extent of the change.

        The point is the Country won’t come to a halt, in fact most people will wonder if the Country can run with 2 million fucking scumbags on strike,do we need them at all?

        Especially the fucking women who seem to think the whole of society should be based around the needs of their wombs.

        Get real jobs you fucking slags.

      I find it cringeworthy when politicians offer their respects to dead people that they probably couldn’t give a crap about. Ed Miliband, the daft twat, felt the need to offer condolences re Gary Speed’s death using twitter. Why do politicians feel they that have to have view on everything? It’s a shame when someone dies in tragic circumstances like this but I never met the man, I don’t know his friends or family and am ultimately not bothered about his death. I also feel uneasy about people laying flowers outside Leeds football club. What is the point? It’s all bit like the Princess Diana hysteria. Bloody idiots! And another thing……if I see another roadside car crash memorial – I think I might remove it. The one I saw yesterday was a full on wooden cross with a brass plaque. I don’t want to see flowers etc littering the kerbside for months & years. Not far from where I live there’s a freaking bike (sprayed white to give a ghostly effect) wired half way up a tree.

        Lord Stansted says:

        Well said. That politicians think they must have a view on everything reflects on their spineless characters. They simply don’t have the interlectual strengths. I suspect that’s why they go into politics in the first place.

        Sense of proportion is short supply and growing it seems says:

        I’m afraid that kerbside memorials seem to be an increasing UK trend with flowers etc taped to railings,lamp posts trees,bridges,crossings etc… which in their turm are a traffic hazard and thus could cause yet another person to crash etc….now fully I understand that people need to grieve but its always struck me as ridiculous that relations/friends would want to put floral tributes,fluffy toys and rememberance cards around the very object that their loved wrapped themselves around ??….far better to reserve these sorts of thing to the persons graveside if interred or in a garden of rememberance if cremated….

        Selohesra says:

        Agreed – but that goes for most of the other comments too – even if you knew the chap Twitter is not the appropriate medium for something so tragic. Twitter is for shallow vacuous comments – which is why it is so loved by politicians

    lord Justice Leveson says:

    Statement of Mr Alastair Campbell: Lord Justice Leveson was extremely concerned to hear that, on 27 November 2011, a copy of the evidence that Mr Alastair Campbell intended to provide to the Inquiry was published on the ‘Gu ido Faw kes’ website. The website asserts that this statement was obtained by ‘legal means’ but Lord Justice Leveson will be enquiring further into this claim and Mr Pa ul Sta ines will be required to give evidence pursuant to s21 of the Inquiries Act 2005. Witness statements are disclosed under strict confidentiality agreements in order that participants can prepare for the evidence; that confidentiality must be observed to maintain the integrity of the Inquiry. In the meantime, although statements are normally published only after the witness has attested to their accuracy, in the interests of fairness to Mr Campbell and others, Lord Justice Leveson has directed (and Mr Campbell has agreed) that his statement, which had been amended slightly, should be published on Monday on the Inquiry website

      This enquiry is wasting millions of pounds and is a huge distraction that is only pandering to so called celebrities who want to get some retribution for poor publicity by newspapers.

      In the meantime the country is fast going down the pan as the unions, the labour party and the MSM, headed up by the BBC, do their best to knock the government off course and generally wreak havoc upon us all.

      Talk about fiddling whilst Rome burns, ….. again.

      This is self-destruction and a great pain to watch for an old man who came from a working class family that was proud to be British 60 years ago.

        It is not just celebrity, the way the Watson family from Glasgow were treated by the media after the murder of their daughter was utterly disgraceful and to my mind provided the most powerful testimony to the enquiry. It was truly heartbreaking though it didnt receive as much exposure in the media as Hugh Grant and co which of course tells you all you need to know about the shallowness of our society.

    Air Strip One says:

    I think it’s a reference to George’s decision to borrow more Futurama money to do what the Banks should have done with other load of Futurama money we gave them a while back. Sure it will work, cheap credit from the government to passed on at high interest rates to the punters in the UK or more likely loans overseas like the last lot.

    How long before it sinks in that politics is now about telling the masses that the good times are over they’re going to have to look after your own kids, health, education etc.. while the super rich live in Bastions of Wealth. Sure that’ll sound good on the hustings, but don’t worry the ‘democratic process’ will be suspended at that point for duration of the ‘emergency’

    Pawn Sandwich says:

    If Cameron wanted people to pay off their credit cards then why did he not put a cap on the interest rates some charge?

    29.9% per annum is good for a loan shark, but for any minimum waged punter who is maxed out on their credit card this rate of interest ensures that they pay off the interest only each month and hence cannot contribute as consumers.

    A serious cap on credit card interest rates would divert money away from the banks and into the high street.

          jgm2 says:

          Fuck retail spending. We just had ten years of unsustainable retail and government spending. Time to collectively draw in our horns and live within our means.

          The only retail spending I do is on food, fuel and school fees. And I’m starting to get p155ed off with the return-for-my-money on the school fees too so I might send the kids to the local comp instead and hand them the savings from the school fees at 18.

          • anon says:

            “Time to collectively draw in our horns and live within our means.”

            I agree – but isn’t this what everyone’s doing? As a result, the retailers are finding it harder to sell crap that no-one needs, causing our MPs to wet themselves.

            The slowdown on the high street is a symptom of a very positive change. Our MPs should be delighted. They now need to accept that as we spend less money, they have to spend less money as well. This I suppose is the real reason why they’re wetting themselves.

          • Pawn Sandwich says:

            People on the minimum wage do not save. They live from one week to the next. By lowering the apr on their credit cards any savings would go to the local retailers (pizzas and chavwear etc).

            Agree with your views on the returns on school fees – a decent local sixth form college should get 25% A*’s and A’s at AS and A2 level. If your kids fit inside this 25% profile then the money may be more useful at university.

          • Errr.... says:

            A family friend is thinking of pulling their child out from the local fee paying school. The child’s not academically inclined so the argument is ‘why shell out 100k on education for someone who’ll no doubt end up working in a cafe or a call centre’. Academia isn’t for everyone. A primary school head teacher pal of mine reckons it’s the parents that make biggest difference. I agree. I’ve taught my kids to read and 90% of their maths knowledge was taught at home.

    • 129
      anon says:

      The credit card companies would most-likely introduce charges for having the cards – say £10 per month.

      Perhaps credit cards should have interest rates of no more than 2x the base rate and credit limits of no more than 2x the account holder’s monthly disposable income.

      • 138
        jgm2 says:

        Perhaps credit cards should have interest rates of no more than 2x the base rate

        Fuck credit cards having that limit – how about the banks having that limit. Base rates are allegedly 0.5% at the moment but if I wanted a loan (I don’t) the cheapest I can see is 6%. Twelve times the rates the fucking banks are borrowing at.

        How about we all borrow direct from the BoE at 0.5%. We could all have a hell of a party then. Although that is rather the Brownian thinking that got us into this economic clusterfuck in the first place.

        Borrow load! It’s really cheap! What could possibly go wrong!!

          Working for a well-known high street electrical retailer (beginning with ‘D’) many years ago, I’d occasionally meet young people coming into the store with their store-card bill. They’d have got a store card, spent up to the limit – far more than they could afford – and then paid-off the minimum. This is what would bring them into the store, in a state of confusion, anger and fear; their next bill would show they owed more than their last bill, even though they’d paid some off.

          Credit cards are bad enough, store cards: evil.

    Wikepedia (for any Mirror or other MSM hacks who are too weak to be able to click a link)

    [25]On 27 November 2011, Watson’s website published Alastair Campbell’s evidence that was due to be presented to the Leveson Enquiry into media ethics during the following week. After this act was highlighted on the Guido Fawkes blog, together with references to the source material, the page was withdrawn. Pаul Stаines, editor of Guido Fawkes, was summonsed, on the same day that this appеared, to appеar in front of the enquiry. It is not clear, at time of writing, whether Watson will be similarly summonsed to appеar.

    So the BBC finally got around to reporting Guido’s story, but where as Sky concentrated on what the story said and mentioned the Daily Mirror, the BBC simply reported that Guido was in trouble and briefly mentioned Alistair Campbell and hacking but NEVER mentioned the Mirror in the news article.

    Biased? the BBC, NEVER!

      I “sort of” feel sorry for the BBC. They still think it’s 1950 and the loyal public are sitting close up to their wireless sets waiting to be told about the activitis of the great men of the land – politicians, bishops eu commissioners and really important people like that. And even now, the BBC are rolling out the very latest technical things, like something called “Tele-vision”. Heavens, whatever next?

        John Bellingham says:

        What the BBC DID do in the 1950s and at least up to the early 1960s is present news in an impartial manner. As a state broadcaster they would allow a member of the incumbent government or a senior official to make a statement and then allow opposition parties a reply or appropriate comment. Now, as shown almost every day, they provide a free party political broadcast to the Labour Party in the form of a barely challenged interview early in the morning and then treat that interview as “News” for the rest of the day. It is also significant that so many of the “independent” commentators are mouth-foaming lefties whether they are reading the morning papers or appearing on a quiz show.

    BBC bias on News 24 7 mins ago.

    The BBC announced that David Mills, accountant to the Italian Brillo, is to give evidence.
    No mention of Tessa Jowell!
    If that had been a coalition MP connection would the BBC have mention the fact. Yes they would.
    The BBC left wing blatantly biased. Sell the BBC.

    In effect he will be admitting that he has fucked up big time. To camouflage his failure he will announce more vicious attacks upon the victims.

    Is Cry Baby Balls turning into John Prescott in the way they both mangle the English language?
    In an interview in Daily Politics magazine, Balls said: ‘I think because he [Cameron] is in phase one of being a prime minister, where he thinks that if he says things they must be true because he is the prime minister.
    He’s only now getting into phase two, where he finds out simply saying things doesn’t make them true.’ Clear?

    I think it more likely that he gets his ideas from George Brown and Roy Hattersly; it won’t be long before we get a New Economic Policy and a Prices and Income board. Osborne’s latest oevre has the feel of the failed 1960′s and 1970′s policies.

    A Government scheme to price NEETS into jobs by subsidising their employment: why not just get rid of the policy which keeps them unemployed? This initiative is an explicit recognition that if companies could employ NEETS for less they would do so. The cause of NEET unemployment? The minimum wage; the Treasury and the Coalition Government have explicitly recognised it.

    Guaranteeing bonds to fund loans to small businesses? Another interference with the market which will result in more market distortions and mis-allocation of resources. You want to help small businesses, stop taxing them and get rid of some of the onerous rules and obligations you are till churning out on a daily basis.

    Increasing the bank levy to fund it? The banks will simply offshore some of theirr activities or change tax domicile. Resulting in loss of tax revenue and jobs.

    Osborne you are fucking up! Big time! It feels like the early 1970s and the early part of Atlas Shrugged.

      Leveson: Guido should be denied ‘oxygen of publicity’
      The Leveson inquiry is this morning considering whether to force political blogger Guido Fawkes to remove a copy of Alastair Campbell’s witness statement from his website.

      Lord Justice Leveson said he was “absolutely not prepared” to allow Paul Sta ines, the man behind the Order-Order website, “the oxygen of publicity”.

      http://www.pressgazette.co.uk/story.asp?sectioncode=1&storycode=48346&c=1

      I somehow get the impression that the judge has found Guido guilty, even before his day in court

    So George is hoping that a 1% interest subsidy will tempt SMEs to borrow up to £40bn. I note he does not suggest that small business will get interest rates of 1-3%. Base rate is 0.5% so lending at 5% the banks have a 4.5% margin. Most of this shoots straight through to profit, so will George be receiving more than 1% back in corporation tax anyway?

    Surely it would be better to remove tax relief on bank interest for businesses, after all, even first-time buyers get no tax relief on their mortgage interest. It would raise a bundle of cash to pay down the deficit, and favour the fittest and strongest companies to build our future, rather than those bloated by debt. When the economy grows, the tax take will increase, so the Goverment will then have money to put aside for a rainy day.

    And it has to be said, why do taxpayers subsidise most those who borrow the most?

Andrew Pierce on Ed Balls…

“Porky Shadow Chancellor Ed Balls sweet-talked guests at a fund-raising dinner by saying if he wasn’t a politician, he would be a chef. That’s not surprising, since he was accused of cooking the Treasury books when he was Gordon Brown’s boot boy.”
