Tom Harris bemoans the public’s attitude to politicians…
“Mr Oborne echoes the lazy, anti-politics whine we hear so often these days, all based on the absurd notion that politicians were once loved and only fell out of public favour during the expenses scandal. He should take a walk to the Strangers’ Bar. But not to sup with the patrons he seems to despise so much, dearie me, no; he should instead look at the paintings on the corridor outside the bar, which depict the devastating fire which consumed most of the Palace in 1834. And he should reflect on the fact that on that dramatic night, as the Commons went up in flames, a crowd gathered on the South Bank to clap and cheer.”
Focus group time. says:
The thing that Dave needs to work out is which group is more likely to vote Conservative. Mad swivel-eyed loons or mad homosexuals wishing to get married.
Leveson tells inquiry: “I will not be deterred”
Lord Justice Leveson complained to Cabinet Secretary Sir Jeremy Heywood about Michael Gove’s comments
No Labour Government would have allowed this enquiry
Although they might have redecorated with Hutton Whitewash
I think he may have said “I will not be de turd”
Brian Leveson Lies Over Bann
Pompous little slaphead.
I wonder what his old mum thinks about it all.
“I believe in freedom of speech, BUT …”
Brian’s biased.
I’m lard-arsed.
Who knew ?
.. and that is where I switched off..
What’s up has the tv got new distractions to fill the tv cesspit of time and Leveson is worried he may get the troughs time’s up signal.
We’re all capitalists on here but surely even we have to admit there’s something wrong with the system when a talentless and unfunny twat like Jimmy Carr can make £3.3 million. Then again, I’ve never understood why anyone finds Billy Connolly funny. Yelling non-stop is not my idea of comedy.
perhaps the loggorheic torrent hides something?
or is it Bob Munchausen’s Disorder?
Whether or not people find Carr funny is nothing to do with the (capitalist) system, it is more a function of education and the moral decline of society.
At least Carr is a net contributor to the tax system, rather than a claimant.
when I was young I told people that I wanted to be a comedian – they just laughed at me!
they’re not laughing now!
“I will not be deterred” my foot.
I am in deterred !
He should call Boris.
Oh for fucks sake, what a mess. Close it down. Now.
That’s the problem when an inquiry into media standards gets co-opted by little arsehole blabbermouths like Twatson and turned into a lets-attack-whatever-we-don’t-like-while-being-deafeningly-silent-on-things-we-do fest.
Does he always talk that slowly? His jokes must be ummmm interesting…
He may not have reached a conclusion so far (no, really) but by not having the BBC in the dock and being able to give them the same kind of ‘rigorous’ questioning that seems to be reserved for NI or anybody right of centre, the die is already loaded
I love crayons.
What nonsense, plain for all to see that Leveson isn’t persuing a hidden agenda, it’s just puzzling, mysterious, obscure and enigmatic.
Didn’t he give the verdict out on the first day?
Declaration of interest: I think Jimmy Carr and Billy Connolly are funny.
Here’s a translation of this that a moron (but apparently not Brian could understand):
1. MoS ran a story portraying me in a negative light.
2. The press should be free.
3. Blum, bler, blow, blaff.
..and my fee is?
In the post.
This morning, Leveson said he would not be deterred from seeking terms of reference, terms he should have had at the start of the enquiry.
So what the hell has he been doing all this time, courtesy of the taxpayer?
