Guto: “I Never Claimed Downing Street Offered Job”
At an ungodly hour this morning Guto Harri calls from New York to correct the claim that he was ever offered a job – or ever claimed he that he was offered a job – by Downing Street. Guido has previously raised eyebrows at the claim.
He says that articles suggesting he was were not his doing – the Telegraph’s Mandrake was not briefed by him and that he specifically told the Guardian that he had offers from a ”luxury manufacturing company and a large public affairs firm” not Downing Street. He told Guido that he didn’t go to spin for News International for the money – he could have gone to a bank for more money however that would be boring. He also said Guido seemed to know where he was going before he had made up his own mind…
Ah! Diddums
where am i meant to be?
Once my hero was the simply gorgeous Tony Blair. Now I’m grown up I prefer the more mature type like Guto.
Apr 12:
Receipts £42.9 bn Expenditure £56.2 bn Depreciation £0.7 bn Borrowing Reqt. £14.0 bn
Apr 11:
Receipts £42.4 bn Expenditure £54.1 bn Depreciation £0.6 bn Borrowing Reqt. £12.3 bn
Increase in Borrowing Reqt. Apr 11 to Apr 12 £1.7 bn.
So, as you can see we are successfully tacking the deficit!
Borrowing Reqt. Apr 2010: £8.9 bn
Reduction in deficit over Apr 2010 to Apr 2012: -£5.1bn
Is there no end to my success!?
Well done, Dave! You are a clever boy. Now all we need is Merv to print up another £100 billion for our poor, poor bankers and the Brit plebs will be begging in the streets for scraps! Well done!
Was it not Ed balls that said printing money is the best way to get savers to pay for the deficit.
“I never claimed Downing Street offered me a job” isn’t quite the same as “Downing Street never offered me a job.”. They offered it to him, he’s just not “claiming” that they did.
Isn’t all this getting a bit incestuous? – I couldn’t give a feck. ZZZZZzzzzzz…..
Yes M’Lord
Get your head out of the village tittle tattle and concentrate on the bigger picture you tosser!
Oops sorry meant to send that to Dave. Anyway if the cap fits wear it
This blog is slowly but surely disappearing up its own arse.
This is a Westminster political gossip blog dedicated to tittle-tattle. You appear to be in the wrong place.

Thanks, bookmark now removed.
Bye.
So then Guido, a quiet day. Nothing to report?
Sorry Guido but his blogs has gone to shyte.
Gossip and tittle-tattle is fine if it is entertaining and interspersed with a few heavy-hitting stories but you have not delivered any of those in a long while have you?
Now you are part of the MSM it seems you have become as lazy and complacent as any Lunchtime O’booze Fleet Street hack.
So fuck off. I will no longer be pointing my browser in your direction.
Events dear boy.
There’s a heck of a lot of interesting stuff going on at the moment but not a whiff of it here.
Perhaps you are drinking in the wrong pub or something.
At some unspecified hour some unspecified spokesman contacted the unspecified journalist to claim some unspecified stuff about some unspecified person who may or not be an MP for a unspecified constituency.
Glad we cleared that up.
Does anyone give a shit?
Coo eee
I’m Guto’d
Bored reader: “I don’t give a shit.”
Enough of this boring trivia. The ups and downs of obscure spinners is no doubt fascinating to mini-Guido, who doubtless longs to tread the same paths himself, but to most of us…..not.
Guto is Welsh for Guy/Guido.
Guy Fawkes is Guto Ffowc.
I know where ewe Guto Ffowk, and I’m off there now!
= huge fag.
what, like Rothmans King Size?
Nowt sae Guto as Ffowc.
wrong
This blog is getting like those free local papers that get shoved through your letter box.
All adverts and no real editorial
Guto Harri has got a Songs of Praise face
That’s true. That is very, very true.

The IMF want the UK to print more money, reduce interest rates even further (from 0.5%?) so that our currency can be further fucked and our inflation rate get back above 5%.
And all this with Osborne looking on. These statements have to be agreed with the host government in order to avoid treading on toes. So watch for more printing of cash and negative interest rates. Oh, and inflation back above 5%.
Ha ha! No one spotted the fixed prices index only increased 0.6% in April or over 7% annualised, or me moving £28 billion from Postie’s sack onto the govt’s fiddled books, making a whopping £16bn surplus from a real £12.4bn record borrowing requirement in April, compared to only £8bn in April 11. And the plebs believe we’ve been elected to cut the deficit! Aren’t I clever!
Isn’t it wonderful that our elected politicians have got hold of the controls that can cut our wages and make our savings disappear. hooorah.
If only the Greek politicians could do such things they’d be able to steer their nation all the way into the third world.

Osbourne is fucking useless.
Dave is fucking useless.
The hard socialist – corporatists in the EU – IMF nexus are eating those thick posh boys alive.
How on earth did Cameron & Osbourne get to lead teh Conservative Party – given their complete lack of real life experience & their obvious federalist liberal politics?
Beyond me – thats why i left the party.
Vote UKIP.
I admire your restraint at stopping at just “fucking useless”.
Be fair. If they had got themselves real jobs at some point, they’d be even bigger tits to give it all up for politics.
I dunno filling shelves at Tesco is about all both those pricks are good for
+1
Anyone who votes Tory now is just kidding themselves. If you actually are conservative (with a small c) UKIP are the way forward.
Yawn… ZZZZZZZZZZ……..ZZZZZZZZZZZ………ZZZZZZZZZ
One term Dave – get used to it.
ZZZZZZ……ZZZZZZZ…… Hm?….. Wankers at UKIP Hm?…… ZZZZZZZ………ZZZZZ
Narcolepsy?
It must be bought on by the subconscious stress & disappointment you constantly feel about Cameron.
Ah bless, we are really getting to you.
Chillax.
Vote UKIP
Embrace Change
VOTE UKIP
Ah bless – found the UKIP-er’s key – click, click, click and off they go on their predetermined clockwork route:
How’s that whole “funded by the EU” Farage thing going? Education fund?
Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. Embrace the same political scum, different mask.
Your shit scared that UKIP are on the March.
embrace it don’t fight it
VOTE UKIP
Coming to you in 2015

I concur… zzzzzz…… UKIP troughers……ZZZZZ….
Smear all you like UKIP are still on the march
VOTE UKIP
You really need something called an “education”, even if all you want to operate on is “attack dog” level – a smear is something either wholly untrue or mainly untrue – your MEP’s were guilty of fraudulent use of expenses.
End of.
Do get back to your marching, up the hill. And then Nige can march you all back down again.
Really? Please direct me to the court judgement stating guilt?
its nothing but a smear UKIP pale in comparison compared to Lib/Lab/Con
and yet despite yours and others smears UKIP are still on the march.
see you in 2015
VOTE FOR CHANGE VOTE UKIP
So, only paid the money back because?
Because?
SPEAK UP BOY, THEY CAN’T HEAR YOU AT THE BACK!
UKIP central office must love having you as an intern – have they torn you a new one yet, or is the old one you spout your hilarious opinions through still got some life in it?
Vote UKIP – get LieBore.
Let me explain modern politics. You go to uni, get your degree and join whichever party or if you prefer it political company you think will give you the best career prospects. Leaning to the right or left is now a complete irrelevance as all parties are controlled by the same central office.
Name one politician who joined a party after they left university.
Splitting hairs. In primary school as a result of state of the art careers advice you select a party that offers you the best career prospects….Happy now!
Can you imagine if the government announced a 100% tax on interest from savings? There would be uproar! But have inflation of 5% when bank deposits earn less than 5%, and you have negative real terms savings interest, and no-one complains that much. Simples!
Buy index linked gilts then! You get inflation tax free, then interest at normal tax rates – simples!
I think you can only buy about 25,000 quids worth of those a year. If indeed they’re still available at all. Not much use for protecting your money.
You can buy more than that when they are first issued, but you have to get in like Flynn, as pension funds etc. go at them like woodpeckers!
Tom NO HARD FACTS Watson giving evidence at the Leveson enquiry. Amazing that he has had centre stage, amends the committee wording, and still has no hard facts.
You’re either ahead of Guto ….

My daughter along with all the other kids in her year were told by her school headmistress yesterday that coming to school today (Tues) was a waste of time, as no teachers were available to help them revise for upcoming exams, and that they should all pull a sickie. ( Welsh school run by Labour)
That’ll teach you to live in Wales. Infecting your child’s mind and filling available school hours and bandwidth with a dead language. And not even Latin.
Not much i can do about living in wales at the moment, but having grown up under a Thatcher goverment, probably the last decent goverment this country will ever see, i have fought my daughters schools multi culti, nannying, socialist agenda from day one, so she is not as quite as infected as she otherwise could have been.
I refused to let the school give my daughter Labours cervix jab, and told them i would sue them if they did it behind my back. Had a blazing row with my daughter as she had been told by the school that she was the only child in the school who wasn’t having it (turned out there was one other) and that she was missing out.
As for how and what she has been taught, and the futility of her exams, i could shed a tear. But how do you tell your child that she has had the worst state school education in the history of state school education, without destroying her self confidence.
When kids have been indoctrinated at school, it’s quite hard to un-doctrinate them at home, but i have given it a go, and to a large extent, hopefully, have succeeded
I know where you live……
