Leaky Watson
If his rapidly fading smug smile was anything to go by, Tom Watson got a much tougher ride at Leveson than he was expecting. He was probed about McBride and Smeargate, denying any knowledge of a plan to counter Guido, despite the Red Rag website actually being set up. He was also cornered on leaking and again denied, on oath, that he leaked information from the Culture Media and Sport Select Committee to the Guardian. That will clear up the mystery around them getting hold of all sorts of evidence before anyone else then. He was forced to answer yes to the next question though – of course he was feeding Nick Davies.
Watson was also asked about his relationship with Political Scrapbook. He denied, unprompted, to being “part of the management”, or indeed ever feeding them information. Which is odd given a simple Google search pulled up this glaring example:
“Tom Watson will in a few moments use parliamentary privilege to publicly expose details of a notorious murder inquiry allegedly blocked by News International.”
Information reaching the media before Parliament? How did that come about? The website also carries a very prominent advert for Watson’s book and is funded by the his allies at the GMB Union….
Tom watson is a fat lying smearing C-unt!
Bang to rights !
Urgggggh………..another leak
As TWATson is a full grown champagne sociopath with no capacity for empathyand is unable to see there is anything wrong with his lies, smears, bullying, threats and subversion.
Like most of New Labour, he is a stranger to truth and honestly believes he is the aggrieved victim in all of this.
If John Lyon CB CFA had a pair, he would be rolling in TWATson’s direction, but he hasn’t and he won’t
Lying on oath eh, does that mean leveson can send him to prison?
As a Labour politician, lying on oath has been deemed to be expected. Was it not the Maximum Imbecile who went to court to have a judge rule that Labour promises were not subject to legitimate expectation. As it is for a manifesto promise so it is for ‘I swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth’.
Watson can simply point to that ruling as precedent. Nothing a Labour politician says is to be taken as the truth.
The Maximum Imbecile enshrined it in law that Labour are expected to lie and cannot be trusted.
They’ve got to war for less
We need to know the truth – someone hack his phone !
Ghastly, unprincipled thug.
Fat too.
Now now. That’s no way to talk about Guido.
Watson rails against people who use underhand ways. But he’s been flushed out for using the very same methods. The difference is he gets uppity when he doesn’t like the message. It’s ok to smear if it suits his agenda but when he gets a taste of the medicine it’s unfair.
What a baby. It’s almost some kind of psychological flaw, he is attacking the very way of working that he keeps using.
Freudian projection. All the bedwetters do it.
Their think goes: ‘I am an underhand devious c*unt therefore you must be an underhand devious c*unt therefore I have to be an underhand devious c*unt to counteract your underhand devious c*untishness.’
They assume the worst of everybody and then go even further to ‘counteract’ it.
Horrible, vile people.
Look at Brown, Campbell, Mandelson, Watson, McBride, Straw. All the same. Vile people but justifying their vileness as a necessary measure because obviously the other lot must be worse.
Maybe they are. But I see precious little evidence that they are anything like as wicked and malicious as Labour.
Exactly. Spinners, leakers and liars complain about others who dare to use their own techniques.
Don’t forget me !! I’m resurrecting myself for your benefit.
Labour politicians like Twatson always judge others by their own low standards. They have an absolute belief that others are as devious and dishonest as themselves. So when a Labour politician accuses someone of being a lying crook, you can bet your pension that the accuser is a bigger lying, crooked sack of sh*t.
But why did you wipe your hard drive?
Why did Blair not have a mobile or computer, and why did he shred some documents?
Tom was only carrying out Gordon’s last political will and testament. Remember it was war.
He should be sent to the Hague.
How true.
What would William Hague do with the fat twat – he likes them young and lean.
Make him work for a living for his constituency for a start
I like to shitlax.
His wife left because she found out Watson was dipping the pork sword elsewhere.
‘Pitiful waste of blood and organs’.. Shurely that’s Clarkson innit?
No that would be you.
This country needs more Clarksons and fewer faggots like you.
I concur a wanker if ever i have seen one.
anyone who says durr is either a seven year old or a wanker
Clarkson doesn’t exist. He’s just a made up TV persona like Keith Lemon.
or keith vaz
You don’t have to watch him though – TWatson forces his glowering, sweaty flushed eek on to every fucking news channel he can. And he was not the person who broke the story on phone hacking, despite his porcine squealing that it was!
Watson is very fat
Which is why I oppose the pasty tax.
I can remember pie to 1,000 decimal places.
He’s bloody underweight compared to me.
yeah but you’re cute eric
Should have gone to SpecSavers
Why are lefties moaning about it being easier to sack people?
Why would an employer sack someone who was good at thier job?
So he can hire his mistriss
Eh? Either you’re commenting on a completely different article or you just played your joker.
Because they don’t smile enough
http://www.thedailymash.co.uk/news/business/middle-managers-welcome-new-blame-culture-detector-201204035087
Because they are all useless, incompetent c unts who would be first out of the door if they didn’t work in some public sector hive teeming with non-job drones and civil service queen bees.
Because it simply doesn’t enter their heads that a major hurdle to a potential employer taking on staff is the thought that if you somehow get a ‘bad-un’ that sneaks through the interview process then it’s fucking impossible to get shot of ‘em. Or at least it’s expensive to get shot of ‘em.
So why take the risk?
In the public sector of course this doesn’y apply. It’s merely a numbers game.
‘Go out there and hire 10,000 nurses so I’ve got something I can announce next week.’
‘Okay.’
Nobody gives a fuck if these nurses are any good or not. Qualified or simply the proud possessors of a photocopied ‘certificate’ from Luanda Medical school or, equally uselessly, a recently UK qualified nurse who has changed one bed-pan (observed) [tick], administered one bed-bath (observed)[tick], cleaned up one pool of vomit (observed)[tick] and spent the rest of her three years writing essays about diversity and cultural awareness.
Nobody gives a hoot. Just get ‘em hired so that Brown/Blair can make an announcement. Then, once they have their feet in the door they instantly become totally indispensable no matter how fucking useless they are.
+1
Can someone publish some stats if they exist of the number of council workers, teachers, nurses, police, etc that have been dismissed due to not being able to do their jobs properly?
Do not include ….
1. Those that got sacked coz of gross misconduct or similar
2. Did not get promoted into a higher job in order to get shut
Oh wait can I include MP’s in that list?
3. Those who were deemed ‘racist’
Tom Watson is a smearing Labour liar shocker.
Has TheTwat lied whilst under oath? Tsk, tsk, that’s rather serious.
For TheTwat of course lying, perverting due process, obfuscation, smearing, leaking are all perfectly OK, as he has the best intentions, is acting altruistically, and as a progressive needs to be allowed to do as he wishes to achieve the socialist nirvana.
He needs to be brought to task though, lying at an enquiry……..gosh never happened when you had men of integrity in politics…
Whoops……. forget Thorpe and all the others. Doh.
It’s enough to make you want to bite your pillow.
Good God that takes me back.
I didn’t realise Jeremy Thorpe was still alive until I Wiki’d him the other day.
He’s certainly kept a low profile over the years.
Vile & ridiculous as Watson is, as simplistic, bovine, self centred & irrational his thought processes the Tories & the press are shit scared of him.
We know there are many skeletons in Watsons closet.
We also know we will have to wait for NI to take their dreadful revenge on him – lets face it the BBC, the Mail & the Telegraph are not fit for purpose.
And UKIP are, of course:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2012/apr/20/ukip-meps-misused-eu-allowances
I would rather have UKIP then the corrupt cabal of Lib/Lab/Con
Remind me how many UKIP politicians are serving time for fraud?
Whats that Nil ?
http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2012/apr/20/ukip-meps-misused-eu-allowances
And your excuse is – “Well they’ve not been banged up, so no problem there, M’lud.”
“Not troughing as such, well yes, a bit of troughing, but not so’s you’d notice… well OLAF noticed, but not bad enough to do bird. First offence, previous good conduct (hadn’t been caught before) not like the other UK MP’s.(This bit’s true – we haven’t got a seat!)
You ARE Ludwig Wittgenstein, and I claim my €5, on expenses of course.
UKIP are the only party that will put UK interests first
Trying to smear will not change that
vote UKIP
You need to stop ranting your going to give yourself a heart attack
You are a wanker, i would say i claim my €5 but that ones for free!
All sorts of parties that have never held the reigns are free to say “we’d be great. honest!”
Now, now Fabio – Nanny thinks it’s time for your nap. Nanny always knows, it’s when you have your little hissy fit and stamp your little feet.
UKIP are the same party putting their own interests first, on expenses naturally.
reins not reigns. How many more times?
Notice how the Brussels only seem to go after UKIP for expenses violations? It’s been known for years that all the other MEPs are worse when it comes to troughing, but Commission bosses turn a blind eye to it – “We can’t turn in one of our own, think of the bad publicity for the ‘Project’”.
To the Eur0pe@n Parliament, UKIP are the enemy within so they must be dealt with harshly.
Come to think of it, wasn’t the last UKIP member accused of expenses fraud fitted up by the Commission?
Someone should ask Kinnock about fraud in the E. U. He sacked the accountant (Marta Andersen) who discovered the massive scale of fraud while Kinnochio turned a blind eye to it.

Re the Indy article ytou reference
I doi not like watson personally or his politics
But I do think that the tacticss used by the Screws sleuths are totally unacceptable
They remind me of the tactics used by the KGB and other secret police in eatern Europe when I used to visit
Especially to try and s m e a r a politician
S m e a r i n g of all kinds is intolerable
Against private citizens of politicians etc
Os it the name of the gam in the UK now to reduce the people’s lives thru the press to below the gutter using any criminal or non criminal means ?
I think that the smearing of the lying, fat, slimy thuggish toad Watson is intolerable too.
The problem is that politicians will smear other politicians for political advantage. Hence everybody going into a swoon back in the day whenever some T*ry minister would be caught shagging somebody he wasn’t married to. Watson was implicated in manufacturing smears with the vile McBride. Not content with waiting for the T*ries to get caught he was actively encouraging outright lies and smears.
The likes of Watson are vile, evil people. They destroy people’s lives, diverting attention so that the likes of the Maximum Imbecile could destroy the entire economy. Justifying their wickedness to themselves because ‘their heart is in the right place’. The end justifies the means.
And there might even be some gem of truth in that if they had actually achieved some good but, as we see, after 13 years they proved themselves to be merely Satan’s representatives on Earth.
I thought you were talking about me there, – ’til I read the bit about shagging wimmin!
And now I’m bagging shopping!
Watson’s role in bringing down Blair, when did he act, and weren’t the Blairs more focussed on ‘family difficulties’ at the time or is that just rumour on the web?
Sounds exactly like the sort of thing he would do.
I noticed that when Andy Coulson mentioned ‘the McBride Affair’ in his testimony at Leveson, Mr Jay did not pursue the reference. What a surprise.
Tom I have no hard facts Watson is a liar.
Not quite worthy of an Oscar – mayby a Grammy.
Two awards on consecutive days, I’ve had to sit down.
your bladder won’t drain as well if you do…
True enough, how are your piles?
driven
Built on sand as is labour.
Our politicians offer us an example of Original Sin. They are tainted, not in the first place by any individual fault of their own (although their subsequent failings sink them deeper into the mire) as merely by their inheritance as politicians. So it is impossible for them to haul themselves out of the mire unaided. They have no firm, uncorrupted support to take their weight. They carry too much baggage. Instead, they drag each other ever further in.
It’s Bog standard these days.
I’m liking that explanation.
Excellent analogy.
Andrew Adonis is currently on the Daily Politics. What a complete tosser. Give me strength when I listen to idiots like him.
I gave in and threw up…
I just can’t take him seriously at all with a name like that couples with the physique of a plucked bantom cock.
coupled – bantam – keyboard fuck
Adonis joined the Labour Party to get revenge on those who took the piss out of the nerdy little dweeb at school. Scratch a Labour supporter and you’ll discover adolescent resentment oozes out in buckets.
Waiting for this to appear of the BBC news.
You mean the BBC version with all the embarrassing bits taken out so as not to taint their Hero.
Twatson is even more objectionable than Blinkiebollox. There must be some sort of competition to see who is the most odious.
Some poor woman might have to wake up and see him in the morning. That must be pretty scary…
I could cure that.
His wife done a runner, so you’re not far off there.
She had only to do a walk – that fat c*unt wouldn’t have been able to keep up with her.
So we’ll all see this on the BBC News tonight and of course Newsnight will investigate and explain it for us………I won’t be staying up!!’
He’s under oath but his statements fall apart within minutes.
Very weak.
Postman Alan Johnson is at Leveson. He is not fit for purpose. How on earth did he get a cabinet position in the last government. Anyone would think it was through union influence.
I got the job to keep Balls out.
but when I admitted I didn’t know how much the UK tax rate was, or even what tax was, I had to go.
He might be a bit slow but I’d rather go for a beer with Alan Johnson than Watson or indeed any of the current Labour leaders
Although I have shared an enjoyable beer with Owen Smith
I can’t ever get served.
We paid this fat greedy bastard £4800 for food in one year, it shows Tom, you fucking Champagne socialist glutton.
And how much was Alan Johnson claiming?
It’s amazing that the BBC have not shown full Leveson coverage of Jowell, Mandleson, Watson and Johnson. Why when they were all in government when the hacking took place.
One thing that Mandleson did say yesterday was that it wasn’t just NI that were involved in hacking, an implicated other media. Not sure what Mandleson’s agenda was by making that statement. Of course his statement was met with complete silence. Why?
nothing on the Mirror and Mail’s activities. All very odd.
Presumably in case they are asked anything which might taint them by association with the Evil Murdoch Empire which the BBC (an unbiased news organisation) has spent the last 12 months slashing to bits.
I’m just about to look for this on the BBC website as I am sure it will be on the landing page news ticker under breaking ….
We only bother with items that are newsworthy – like, for instance, the Wickedness of the Right and the running dogs that run with them.
That is all.
Now PAY YOUR TELLY TAX!!!! and be grateful!
Don’t bother. They will be breathlessly babbling about a bunch of half-wits who have been conned by Lord Coe into spending loads of dosh to run about carrying a flaming torch.
Labour – We are negative about everything. Even our policies are negative, meaning we have none.
It means you’re in the fucking RED! – the national colour of Commy bastrds!
I like to chillax. And then give another billion to the IMF.
Lend you mean, thurely. I’ll lend the even more to thubtherdithe my rubikth cube collecthion.
(Thorry about the thpit)
I say chaps! Never mind all this talk of these jolly Uniony Lefty Wingy bods – good luck to them I say!!
The main thing is that my progressive collaborators never tire of listening to my tales of Wind Farms and my love of the EUSSR – a paradise that draws one like a magnet to metal – well some metal – they say that there are magnets in these jolly Wind thingys – and the arms give birds a jolly good thump – but never mind that – it’s all part of saving my face with the Green thingy people and one’s jolly bosses Herr R. Pumpy and Sen. Hose Barista – watt? Wattage? Ha ha hah hahh aahhh!
Ah, nostalgia …
The affair also threatened to engulf Cabinet Office minister Tom Watson. Questions were raised about whether he had a role in the proposed dirty tricks campaign, to be run from Downing Street.

He leaks hard for the money
So you better smack him right
Could somebody tell me – as the Daily Politics now become one long Party Political Broadcast for the Labour Party. I want my License fee money back.
Go away little person! Such programmes are only for discerning upper class intellectuals like Poll and Grouniad readers and us at the BBC.
What are people moaning about us droning on about ‘Cuts’ all the time.
Did we at the Beeb mention the cuts that young fella and his dad received at the hands of a Bl*ck mob?
NO.
See,balance.
Agree. Adonis was allowed to ramble on with labour propaganda. Coburn continually interrupted anything tory.
The latest plan it seems from our “illustrious” and “impartial” state broadcaster is to get the Libdems to cross the floor to join Labour in a newLib-Lab pact.This could be as early as Autumn 2012. It appears someone somewhere as now read the “Fixed term Parliament Act 2010″ which states that in the event of a governing party/coalition losing a vote of confidence another party or coalition can see if a coalition could be formed that commanded the support of Parliament. No election unless they fail and the left wouldn’t if only to get rid of Cameron(elements of the Tory right might even abstain)Notwithstanding the fact that the Conservatives are the biggest party at 305 there is just enough woth Labour and Libdems plus a few odds and sods nationailsts to oust the Tory led government.This new coalition could then have lmpost 2 and half years to remedy what they pereciv as the draconian Tory policies and put forward a strategy for growth.This plan of course pre-suppose that the markets would stand idly by if such an event occurred
Something very rotten in the State of… well everything really.
Which makes what you don’t hear about as interesting as what you get shoved down your throat 24/7 by our glorious MSM, and one unique example in particular.
What gets into Westminster, and then boosted and/or protected, explains much about the state of this country, but damns our politico-media estate.
“McBride and Smeargate”
You really must tell us all about that one day when you’ve got a spare moment.
Bunter watson is a class A slimeball…slug of a man and morals to match
Even you can’t really want to defend Watson.
If there was an award for most self serving MP he’d be up there with the likes of Douglas Hogg, Margaret Moran, John Prescott, Jeffery Archer and Stuart Bell.
Only Mike Handycock might possible unseat Big Tom from a place on the podium for smug git of the decade.
actually Bill he falls within the brown balls whelan scumbag class best
Defend him against what? If Guido s going to suggest he had something to do with it let him come out and say so. I’ll hold my breath shall I?
Oh God you are such a cretin Jimmy.
Defending Watson. An arch scumbag. I’m a Tory but if Watson was on the govt benches I’d be mortified – but you stand there and defend him.
Typical tribal left.
C unts the lot of you.
Still not sure what I’m supposed to be defending him against. He stood up to the bullies despite the fact that it made him Murdoch’s #1 topic and did it long before it became fashionable. Any fair minded person would find it admirable.
“I’m a Tory”
Get away. Really?
Jimmy, Watson used the same office as McBride when the plan to smear the then opposition was hatched. It has long been common knowledge that Watson and McBride were Gordon Brown’s hatchet men when it came to smearing opponents, even within their own party, in the media.
Watson was also at the forefront of the plot to oust Tony Blair. Do you really believe Watson when he travelled 400 miles all the way to Kirkaldy just to deliver a soft toy to one of Brown’s kiddies on the eve of the “putsch” to get rid of Blair?
Watson is fond of saying that Murdoch Jnr. must have known what was going on in the global media empire he ran for his dad. Strange that he didn’t know anything about McBride’s dirty little plots when he was sat at the next desk and was a regular boozing partner of his.
Of course, Jimmy knows all about Watsons putrid behaviour, but he’s Labour through and through, and Labour drones ALWAYS condone bad , even criminal, behaviour when it’s on behalf of the Party.
The suggestion that he was involved with McBride’s website (arguably the most preposterously inflated media story of all time) is one which turned out to be very profitable for him. No prizes for guessing which paper printed it or why. As I said I can’t see Guido repeating it can you? Discretion is after all the better part of valour.
Obviously anyone who plotted against our greatest PM since Attlee has grievously offended against heaven and obviously I’m not buying the baby stroller story, but I believe he has redeemed himself.

Hi Rebecca
Can we just end the Leven-watsit enquiry now, I’m bored with it. It’s just a show trial and only the BBC/Guardian seem to care that much. Murdoch bad, Tories in cahoots, fine. Blair never met Rupert and Labour are innocent. Great. Let’s move on.
Meanwhile the EU is imploding and we have to fork out £bn to save a currency we aren’t a member of for no other reason I can see other than we happen to be quite close to mainland Europe. The Tories seem to be happy with this. How much of taxpayers money to you have to give away to a non-democratic trans-national government who openly wants to crush us before it’s considered treason?
And am I the only one who’s sick of Olympic propoganda everywhere? It’s beginning to feel a bit like 1936/Triumph of Will.
I think it is a great oppurtunity for us to give bl*ck people jobs selling Lucozade on tv.
1935.
Blair’s choreographed Labour Party conferences were that long ago?
Doesn’t time fly when Labour fuck the economy.

Lying, smearing, money grubbing Fatso.
If you ever need an emetic just picture Fatson either having a poo in the nude or having sex (probably with himself)
As a Dr I cannot reccomend this but it works for me
you need help
Try the stats on Planning Officers. How many get fired because their statistics are massively weighted against private individuals trying to build or extend their own property versus property developers and Tesco.
The answer is almost always “NO” at first, otherwise they wouldn’t need a whole department to do a basically three person admin job.
The difference? “Infrastructure” payments from the property developers and Tesco – average of £60,000 per development, straight into council coffers.
73 houses and apartments on a 2 acre site as against one house on a one acre site? 72 separate EXTRA Council tax payments straight into Council coffers.
You couldn’t make it up.
If Watson gets away with the perjury, it will prove that the enquiry is pro-Liebour – I was wondering Rebekah was traeted so badly , now I know.
Tom Watson? A white male Dianne Abbot.
The same streak of poisonous darkness running through both, the same ability to lie and tread on anyone who gets in their way and a reserve of spite that Brown would approve of.
the only thing i like about watson is the fact he drives you up the wall – therefore he must be doing something right.
Tom Watson has shown such shameful opportunistic profiteering by using a government Comittee as a platform to to launch his book. I would say that is misconduct in public office. The man is a disgrace..
Has Twatson ever had a job?
Just asking.
From Wiki
[edit]Education and early career
“Tom Watson was educated at King Charles I School, Kidderminster, and the University of Hull, where he was elected President of the Students’ Union in 1992. He was Chair of the National Organisation of Labour Students from 1992–93. He then worked as a marketing officer and advertising account executive. In 1993, he began to work for the Labour Party as National Development Officer for Youth. He then worked on the party’s 1997 general election campaign before becoming the National Political Officer of the AEEU trade union.”
So in short, No.
Tom Watson, what a slimeball.
Needs to be charged with treason along with McDoom, Bliar and all the other cock knockers that have f_ucked up this country…
Tom Watson=fat lying Hunt
I honestly believe that “Jimmy”, who regularly bloggs utter shyte on this blog, is, in fact. TWATSON. Come on Jimmy you ‘tard, admit it. Nobody but Twatson (Jimmy) could write such utter bilge.
It is hard to witness the deep depravity of the kufir amongst whom we virtuous Muslims are condemned to live. I take comfort from the fire thrice heated into which you will all be thrown.
But I must admit I am confused that the News of the Screws thought TWatson was haing an “affair”.
Surely he bats for the oth side, doesn’t he?
In any case he is way too fat to f**k, don’t you think?
