Ai Weiwei in China fighting the taxman…
“Under totalitarian rule, no one is protected by law. We will all be the same helpless victims. When a country insists on its lies, it’s time for an artist to bring forth change.”

Is it Neo Guido?
Show him you’re cross…
The Mail and Telegraph readers were very very cross today
I am a Huhne
Sure dear
Politicians = Turn the country to Rats Shit
Rich and Mark have done well to capture the lardy, soft and s-s-spineless character of that fat fuck Cameron
Human Rights lawyers are to sue Billy Hague for sharing intelligence with our allies to use drones to kill terrorists
Another reason to opt out of legislation that protects the human rights of criminals over the rest of us
Not a bad effort from Rich & Mark this week.
I even recognise one of the people in the picture. (The one doing the V-sign is my gran).
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/david-cameron/9137341/Republicans-not-on-David-Camerons-US-itinerary.html
Cameron will not meet any American Conservatives on his US trip, only Liberals approved by Nick Clegg.
On the agenda is the surrender of the Falklands & how many British troops Obama needs for Iran.
After the insults from the Obama regime to Britain, Camerons suppine nature to those hostile to Britain gets worse.
When will the Tory party wake up to Neath 2?
I’m not Sparticus, please don’t send me to jail, I’ll grass anyone up for #cash £££’s $$$’s , I’m a registered POLICE informer ! Super-Grass ! I want my breakfast in America, like Uncle Rupert !
I’m scared of Will Lewis, he set the lawyers on me !
Jesus believed in Free Speech. He never shut up!
He did kick the money lenders out of the temple though. Not very free market , that.
Well things only improved for Europe when the the reformation happened and ignored the ywh’s more economically damaging “brain-farts”.
The money-lenders were crony capitalists, having an agreement with the scribes and pharisees to soak the poorest. Somehow I can’t see the Heir to Blair following in our Lord’s footsteps. For a start, he’d have to repudiate his wife’s father.
Does he have many mansions?
give him time dear
Render to caear what is caesars. He had no problem with the free market…..only with the place for conducting business. There was trading going on outside the temple and he had no problem with that.
CAMRI = Cameron Rex Iudaeorum? Am I reading too much into this?
Cameron Rex Infidelis?
hello mister, are you the bad man who touched me in my happy place last week?
The only thing touched about you is your brain.
You said you’d buy me an iProd if I kept quiet about it, that’s all ffs.
Toyota have been around longer than was previously thought.

Cameron’s Association of Mortgage Raping Imbeciles
Always look on the bright side of life.
Is it Chris Bryant being subjected to some Saddo-Massochism.
I do hope David Cameron reads Daily Mail commentators. He must do. Who could not?
Oh no! – one does not bother one’s self with what the lower orders read – if they can read that is!! ha ha ha ha!
If it were the Member for Underpants, he’d be smiling.
I designed those pants!

Are Liebour FOR or AGAINST this once great country, me thinks the latter.

Oh dear. Dave’s had a new brill, fab revelation. He’s going to guarantee risky mortgages with oodles of taxpayers’ money (after he’s borrowed it, anyway).
Maybe Gordon could help him with the fine tuning if he’s not too busy.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2113704/1bn-kickstart-housing-market-Banks-given-protection-risky-mortgage-deals.html
This is exactly what dropped the west into the present mess Dave has crumbled under the pressure, He hasn’t been a Tory since before May 22010, now he’s not even a LibDem – just a no hoper drowning in the morass.
He’s not a Christian, he’s not a Patriot, he’s not a Conservative. Seems like he is a candidate for removal from office.
20,000 years in the future, the Tories are still damp squids. Scary really.
Thank you for pointing out my typo. Tippex out 22010, insert 2010.
Squids?
How can he guarantee risky mortgages?. Oops. I forgot. *They* don’t have any money. They just use ours.
The joke is on the homeowners too. A £160,000 house may still be a £160,000 house in 3 years time, thanks to QE.
But beyond the property market, a tank of petrol will be £1700 and a loaf of bread will be £9.60, thanks to QE.
You can’t stop house pr*ces falling in real terms.
Further fucking insanity. Keeping houses expensive so that the folk who paid too much for their houses don’t have to take a hit.
Kids out of university who, if they are lucky enough to get a job in the first place, have no fucking hope of buying a house until they’re 40 because the average house costs about six times the average wage. One of the most basic requirements man has – shelter – and we’re dedicated to making it as expensive as possible. We all want cheap food, water, ca*rs, fuel, electricity, whore, anything else but we’re absolutely delighted that our homes are astronomically pr*ic*ed. It is a national mental illness.
+1 insanity on a stick.
I’m looking for the joke with a microscope.
I designed the pants
Well what do you expect from a Libdem government that you never voted for?
Or a Conservative one you didn’t vote for either (not that most think thats at all relevent).
Considering the Tories have not won an outright victory at a general election since 1992, now 20 years ago, Cameron knows he is still unlikely to win outright at the next election. He couldn’t even beat the single most resented prime minister in ages and the man who of course saved the world and the banks!
That’s why he lets Clegg have his way. Cameron isn’t really interested in winning for the Conservatives, he just wants to be prime minister!
But surely that is all Gordon wanted to be PM, Chancellor, Foeirgn Secretary…………..
Take away postal votes and or Scotland, and they would stand a better chance.
Oh, and the Bbbc, especially the Bbbc.
Vote Labour,Conservative and Libdem for a United States of Europe.
A disunnited states, shurly.
So what will honest Dave backtrack on this week?
Come to think of it exactly what has this Libdem led government done since it came to power apart from put up taxes on everything?
I blame the straights; for they shan’t inherit the kingdom of heaven! For it is written on the table of bread and wine – “the boy Vincent is the next Pope!”
The British Court made the ruling that these two women can’t w ea r a cross. Would the British Court also rule that other religious symbols can’t be displayed? I bet not. Why don’t the Courts leave us alone and get their stasi faces out of lives. Has Dave lost the plot?
I would like to see:
1. A day when all citizens of UK w ea r a big cross (whether Christian or not, just to make a point of where our values (used to) derive from)
2. A year when every UK household withhold their BBC licence tax
YES!!
Oh whatatosser
1. No.
2. Yes.
I say chaps!! Jolly bad eggs about that Human Righty thing!! watt!!
Dashed bad luck!! ….. could make a chap feel flumoxed if he didn’t know what he was doing like wot I do – watt!
Still, must look on the bright side …. Ozzers is copying down a cracking budget thingy that some dashed smart chappies called by to give him – that’ll cheer us up! … watt!
Human rights are the basis to an enjoyable life. People have the right to live their life as they choose, if they are not harming people.
Labour sold our rights down the river and they disgust. Voting Labour is damaging to other people’s rights and it should be banned!
The gays are not the men that will be blamed for nothing!
Is that Liberace?
The government and its institutions are not welcome into my life and that includes Edinburgh dogshite and their stinking brats!
Dave seems to have hairier armpits than I’d imagined.
Spineless governments depriving us of our rights!
I want MY human rights to be respected!
Vote Cameron to keep the EU juggernaut rolling into a United Sates of Europe
Can you believe a word Cameron,Clegg and Osbourn say?
UK in line to pay €4bn to Greece under Lagarde plan
Britain may have to contribute almost €4bn (£3.3bn) to Greece as part of a new €28bn rescue fund proposed by the International Monetary Fund.
At last we’ve found a real placement for Comoron, one after nailing up won’t be able to do a uturn and crap on the public, it’s a placement that all politician’s should be able to aspire when they p[ss off their constitunants or are corrupt or inept.
When will you realise that that any politician only cares about him/herself?
They take your vote then fuck you the next five years. So no one gets mine any more.
You still get the politician, though.
Cameron, the real heir to Blair, just Blue Labour.
So what do you think of this Libdem led government?
Airlines and travel agents are today adding to the Government’s aviation headache with warnings that passenger taxes are pricing families out of flying and are damaging the economy.
The heads of four airlines – IAG, the British Airways parent, easyjet, Ryanair and Virgin Atlantic – in a rare demonstration of unity say the latest duty increase next month will add up to £500 to the cost for a family to fly to Australia and £440 to the Caribbean.
Further increases are in prospect they say with the Treasury banking on a 46pc increase in revenue from the duty over the next four years to £4.8bn.
The chief executives of the airlines – Carolyn McCall of easyjet, Willie Walsh at IAG, Michael O’Leary of Ryanair and Steve Ridgway at Virgin – urged the Chancellor to suspend increases planned over the next four years and commission an independent study into the “economic effects of this job destroying tax.”
Ha ha ha very good – ordinary families travelling to Australia and the Caribbean – they should have added Sandy Lane, Verbier, and Necker Island. PR people tsk!
The politics of envy. For years I have holidayed in the French Caribbean because it is cheaper to fly to Paris and then on to Guadeloupe, St Martin or Martinique than it is for me to dr*ive fifteen minutes to Gatwick and fly direct to Bermuda, St Lucia, Antigua, Barbados etc etc. Plus, when I get to (say) St Martin I can cheaply travel to St Barths, Anguilla, Saba, Statia etc etc and really have a good look around.
All these insane taxes are doing is transferring my cash to Air France and the French colonies rather than British Airways and the ex- British colonies. If I was CEO of BA or a Head of state for the Commonwealth Caribbean countries I’d be going fucking mental.
Will they send a party of MP’s to these places on a reccie?
If this is the case, I’ll be they’ll be queuing up!
Dear Arse. My son has got married, emigrated to Oz, and is starting a life where his academic achievement is being properly rewarded. My grandchild is due in 3 month’s time, and my wife and I would like to see him. We are an ordinary family, and the prospect of paying an extra £1000, because a bunch of raving loonies with a power complex have decided against all reason that plant-food is a pollutant does not make me happy. Your definition of ordinary people may well include that little people should live in tax-created squalor and be unable to visit their families when a Happy Event occurs, which merely indicates the unplumbed depths of bigotry, ignorance and despair to which you have sunk. BTW. Australia is not the only nation that is crying out for skilled labour, and I commend the intelligent youth of out country to go where they are valued.
Economic madness. The Europe*ans won’t be so affected because their tourists can dr*ive across borders. But we’re a fucking island. You more or less have to fly in (or out). All we’re doing is destroying our tourist industry and our airline industry.
Utter fucking madness.
The stupid woman on the BBC this morning talking to the CFO of Easyjet giving it ‘Air Travel is lightly taxed’. To which the CFO pointed out that the UK is the most heavily taxed airline industry in the world. Stupid bitch trying to make the economic case that if we raised more taxes then the economy would pick up and so more people would be able to afford to fly. Aye folks. We’re going to tax ourselves into prosperity. Fucking genius. Why did nobody think of that before?
Where do I apply to have such fucking imbeciles strung up? What fucking lunacy is at large in the land when the BBC is making economic assertions like that?
Intelligence has never been a precurser for front line employment in television.
When your services are requested by an advertisment in the Guardian then expect the drivel that we get shovelled by the BBC.
The thing to do is build a road bridge across the channel which ordinary people can drive over. Ditto between Scotland and Ulster. The technology exists, why not use it? Oh, yes, vested interest in the aviation and rail industries would be miffed.
Carolyn McCall of easyjet and the Guardian – hahaha second careers are a hoot
Northern Ireland is under the delusion that 2012 is its year for tourism, according to the crappy adverts.
Try booking a cheap flight there and you’ll find its always the guts of £100 from Great Britain, the majority of that on government tax ….. then the Jesus freaks ensure that adults arent permitted an alcoholic drink anywhere after 1am.
So you’re not a golfer then?
Socialist old bags should be shot at the age of 65. Useless old c’unts!
Why leave it so late?
The clock is ticking for this totally incompetent Government
Cameron will go down in history as the fool that sentenced this country
To another three terms of Labour !
Mornin mate!
Why are you so cheerful this morning? (The sun is shining here – it always does upon the righteous. Must be some mistake…)
mornin’ frankie and cat, do one.
Go to Holywood Frankie.
People ask me – was I born this thick or did I have to work at it?
And I say, – no it’s in the genes dear boy
The next thing they’ll be banning is that other religious symbol, the niqab.
The answer my friend is blowing in the wind !
Thank fuck I am leaving this socialist shithole. Thick as shit scrounging meddling Hunts! No respect for people’s rights! Useless c’unts.
I don’t want the world, I just want to be treated fairly. I don’t want politicians, bankers, investment companies, the unelected eu bureacrats, radicals and any other tosser telling me what I can and can’t do.
Fuck off and leave me alone!
Wee Dougie Alexander is discussing Afghanistan with the BBC’s Norman Smith. WDA has written an article about Afghanistan in today’s Guardian. I wonder if the Labour / BBC / Guardian trio have been rehearsing this over the weekend. So blatantly obvious.
Remind me…who said in 2006 that British troops will exit Afghanistan without a shot fired in anger ??
That’s how it works. Last week I noted a bogus interview on the Today programme with one Steve Hewlett, a ‘media commentator’, who also just happens to work for the BBC. The whole interview was set up to discuss the possibility that the phone hackers may have a case that evidence given at the Leveson Inquiry will prejudice any legal action against them, and how terrible that would be. Devious fuckers, the beeboids.
modded , e – a as in y— e—- a— rs
Yes and they had banna milliband discussing it on Saturday; he was all tieless and man in the street type street cred, you know, making it real.
Oooooh, he’s written an ‘article’. I bet the nation is safer now. Maybe he could deploy a battallion of articles to the Falklands while he is about it.
Watched wee dooogie on SKY, suddenly after 13years Liebour have become experts at finance and world diplomacy, 13years of Liebour bankrupting the country and starting wars have had a good few layers of Lime render added to those years, still they are a lot better lieing there heads off than actually telling the truth, “investment” was a well used Liebour word .
Hi Nell, read about your twitter issue on the last post. Good luck to you and ignore the psychopathic bullies who are so right on that both your diabled child and freedom of speech are of no consequence.
Regards.
I will fight until the end for human rights! To the bitter end.
Cameron is not much of a messiah: if anyone were stupid enough to invite him to a wedding feast at Canaan he’d decline to go because the couple weren’t gay and then put up taxes on the wine. He’d refuse to walk on water because ‘health and safety’ said they needed prior approval from the EU.
Ok we should be able to see the signs of Dave’s post political career manifesting itself about now, The games up, he’s no Tory ( with less than 20:20 hindsight one could easily see the lucrative plans Blair had in place)
Careerist planning so far has been excellent and a great example for the political leech class : Eton, Oxford (PPE) think tank , SPAD, minister, then
TV – Great British Train Journeys in reverse?
EU – European flunky 1st Class ?
Int – Peace envoy to the ECB?
Sadly, “It is [not] finished!”
Does my Aunt Sali still have a fat arse and a worty face? Looking gormless and staring into space. I would jog to the end of world to see that gormless worty mush again. I does Aunt Sali, I does! Anyone who don’t like you Aunt Sali are foolish maddos!
Cameron’s being crucified? No. He is not. #failcartoon
Socialist will deprive people of their human rights under some pretext such as health. They make me sick!
Comoron and the uconned us along with their very good friends the Libshites, will screw the Con servatives up for a bloody long time, our only hope the real Cons get a back bone and get rid of him and his lunatic friends.
Where do all the countries experts come from. Every day you see them on tv or read their utterings in the press. Is there a university where they are spewed forth from? Who pays them?
On TV, usually a stuffed-dummy luvvie who presents a TV programme on a subject, and then is wheeled out as an ‘expert’ on the subject in news programmes.
Jack Dromey. Now there is an honest MP that won his seat fairly and squarely. No favouritism there, no union influence, how refreshing – not.
Both he and his wife Harman are typical labour parasites.
That has to be a record – a “cartoon” in which there are 37 words.
That’s not a cartoon, it’s a blog post.
Actually, let’s not pussyfoot around – it’s not a blog post, it’s a steaming pile of botty fudge.
How much are you paid to run this cack Gweedo, you lazy wh0re?
