    What the BBC cunts won't remind you about Hester's bonus says:

    But Murdo Fraser, Conservative MSP, said the bonus issue could be traced back to the “stewardship of Gordon Brown and Alastair Darling”, who were responsible for putting the remuneration contract in place.

      It’s all about ‘exposure’. She’s desperate for a safe Labour seat. Or possibly Polly Toynbee’s gig at the Grauniad when the old witch finally fucks off to spend more time with her money abroad.

      Ichabod says:

      And isn’t she an Oxbridge graduate. Christ it’s very worrying. She was so awful that the look of disdain on Danny Fink’s face had taken on the look of permanency. And Neil practically cut her off every time. Who did she sleep with ?

        The Paragnostic says:

        Public school, too. She doesn’t like to go on about it though – it ruins her “street cred”.

        She comes across as a spoilt aristo bitch doing something good for the little people – the perfect Polly replacement.

        You can just imagine her as Roderick Spode’s rebellious daughter.

    • 79
      Terrible But True says:

      She seems the only woman, out of about 30 million, the BBC’s young, impartial producers seem to have access to in sharing what the nation should be thinking.

      But given her performances, maybe the nation should be grateful to them, and her.

      Ms. Mensch is another self-promo obsessive seeking a TV gig soon, but at least has been voted for by a few folk so can claim a degree of mandate beyond what appears for Ms. Penny to be solely acting as Paul Mason’s muse.

      • 86
        Terrible But True says:

        Interesting not also note that Mr. ‘I don’t work for the BBC, I am just paid to mouth what they expect’ Paxman was keen, in this instance, to correct an inaccuracy claimed by a politician, which oddly seems less common when Labour pols are in full propaganda mode.

        Also that the headline that appears to have provoked the BBC into getting excited was not penned by Ms. Mensch, but by a Guardian sub.

        Devotion to factual accuracy, eh?

    Good news!!

    Labour luvvie Danny Boyle tells us that the opening of the Olympics will include public sector workers (nurses) who will presumably be demanding double pay for their time off?

    Why are we celebrating nurses? are they going to demonstrate live on TV how to starve and old person to death or how to avoid washing someone’s arse?

    Perhaps they will all be for overseas and not speak a word of English and give us demonstrations of how to inject poison into the elderly?

    Or how to steal from their vulnerable patients?

    The Champagne socialist Queen herself is ranting again

    http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2012/jan/26/tories-bloody-battle-benefits

    Her comments would be more well received if she were to sell her Villa in Tuscany and donate the receipts to the needy in poverty that she cares so much about. Have you ever thought of becoming a vicar?

    They just don’t get it do they these socialists, quite happy to get everybody else to pay more, but what they have is definitely theirs. Even though hubby was well catered for by Liebour with his state funded non job. Even Polly herself works for a newspaper that prefers to have a labyrinth of owners so that it pays as little taxes as possible.

    Would there be any hypocrisy hear do you think?

    • 38
      Tessa Tickles says:

      “SOCIALISM, reduced to its simplest legal and practical expression, means the complete discarding of the institution of private property by transforming it into public property, and the division of the resultant public income equally and indiscriminately among the entire population.” – George Bernard Shaw, “The Case for Socialism”, 1926.

      I wonder what he’d make of Pollytwaddle’s Tuscan villa.

    I don't need no doctor says:

    The latest Miliband bandwagon is beyond belief. It was labour that set up Hester’s renumeration package. How fucking thick and hypocritical are you Miliband.
    At least Hester is trying to do something positive, unlike Miliband who is absolutely fucking useless.

    • 46
      jgm2 says:

      Miliband is doing his job.

      In order to properly fuck things up Labour needs to get back into power.

      And in order to get into power they have to try and distract peoploe from who it was who fucked everyting up the last time. ‘Oh, look over there – an airplane.’

      So any distraction or lie is good. Because while folk are distracted they’re not concentrating on who fucked everything up.

        Then it’s up to the Coalition to remind the public at every opportunity.

        • 62
          jgm2 says:

          Indeed. It’s the simplest thing in the world to just say

          ‘While the government understands the voters concerns about Mr Hester’s bonus we should remind ourself which party destoyed the UK economy and signed Mr Hester’s employment contract in the first place.’

    • 109
      Grumpy Old Man says:

      Hester and his board were not a part of the great RBS bank fuck-up. Hester cannot exercise his share options until 2014 at the earliest. That means that if he does not continue to improve the bank’s viability and profitability to satisfy the markets, he gets nothing. If he does improve the bank so that shares go up, the taxpayer gets their money back and he makes a killing, he will have done both himself and the taxpayer a great service On consideration of these facts, I would hope that all the faux outrage and mean-minded sniping over Mr. Hester’s remuneration can be left to bed-wetting socialists and other commercially illiterates who have absolutely no idea of how reward should be commensurate with the effort and risk involved.

      • 116
        The Paragnostic says:

        On the other hand, if he compulsively fucks up the lending book, leading to retailers closing down because of bank policy rather than commercial considerations, and leads a ruined shell of a bank to privatisation at a low valuation, he might just make even more of a killing when the shell bank becomes available for use.

        Not that he’d consider doing such a thing, of course.

        Captain Peacock told me so.

    Between £12bn and £24bn according to Sky News, I calculated about £18bn three years ago and everyone has been rubbishing that figure for years – more fool you!

    Don’t forget, most of the jobs “created” went to immigrant construction workers who were cheaper than the British, and virtually NO locals have jobs off the back of this 2 week jerk-off event… the same lies that where told when Canary Wharf was being built.
