Video: Another Heathrow Dough Blow for Yeo

Guido’s Heathrow/China story earlier was dismissed by pro-Yeo types (of which there are very few) as a conspiracy theory and a weak line of attack. Seems Sky News did not agree with them:

Just because a conflict of interest is declared, it does not mean the conflict of interest goes away…

          Conflict of interest? What conflict of interest?

          Yeo enriches Yeo. No conflict there (from Yeo’s point of view anyway.)

          • Dave says:

            Look chaps, the country must have this third runway. How else will we get all those illegal migrants in, to reduce wages in UK to Chinese slave-wage levels? How else will we traffic all the drug money to be laundered in the City, from Afghanistan, for which the British Army is fighting to keep the poppy fields open? How else will we chaps be able to escape in our private planes, at a moment’s notice, when you thick fuckers finally realise your country’s been sold out from under you?

            I would like to add to what you said. I do not care so much whether someone agrees or disagrees with me. We all come from different directions.

            What I do care about, or acknowledge in others is where they use care in thinking their thoughts and in expressing them.

            To that extent, whereas I don’t always agree with everything you say/post, I know that I have to take note of what you do say/post as it contains depth.

          Thank you for that, sincerely.

          But we are all very imperfect. I rejoice in it because there is so much room for improvement.

          I try and run the gamut between highly thought out pieces and complete nonsense. It is, I suppose an attempt to be serious without taking myself too seriously. Humans are amazing beings. We are the only truly self-aware species but still animals at base. We have to juggle this somehow.

    It’s obvious that such an airport would not annoy locals, could operate 24/7 amd only pollute the Frogs. It would also link up to the channel tunnel railway, motorway network, HS1 and the port of London

    What-ho underlings!

    It has become clear to me that we in the Tory party have no chance of winning the next election, so we’re now engaging in a scorched earth policy to bugger the country even more.

    We’ll be redoubling our efforts to cut the deficit even less than we have, We’ll be reducing immigration so that even more useless people are free to come here and claim benefits. We’ll be making people even poorer in order to help with our growth strategy.

      Always remember, as the Great Leader and Spiritualist Tony Blair taught us: It is the victims of crime who are to blame.

      The perpetrators are merely misunderstood.

    Jesus.

    Had a basketful of wankers tonight. First Yeo, then Oakshit – what a fine political class we have,

    Must turn the tele off in case Huhne suddenly appears, that would be just too much. I’d need to slit my throat.

    This sort of thing – a politician manipulating a free market economy for his own purse – is what you might expect in Asia or Russia but not in the UK. Worse, nobody seems to mind.

    He should be kicked out of office in disgrace.

      Don’t think greed and usage can just be attributed to politicians Smoggie, though since parliament has allowed outside interests to be acceptable, it is much worse. What is / should be enough for one person to live a comfortable lifestyle on is not enough for another. Never liked Harold Wilson for his politics but the guy like many other oldies from all parties entered and departed without the hustling for riches that characterises the present lot.
      Unfortunately when any group is allowed to write it’s own rules and remuneration , police itself, be automatically promoted to the upper house, to become geriatrics in perpetua, you know the system has gone to far

    Does anybody know whether comrade Barosso and his army have made a decision on if, and where, we are allowed to build another airport?
    After all it’s all about not having advantage over our European competitors, is it not?

    Disastrous Dave, never knowingly doing something to benefit the UK, like getting us out of the €USSR says:

    The Tory Partee chose ME as their Leader!

    Says a lot doesn’t it?

    Comrade Citizan Barosso (coffee meister at your service) says:

    You do indeed have my blessing and whole-hearted support to build another airport, – in the Shetlands.

    That is all.

    Now shut up and pay your €USSR dues and taxes!

    One in 10 health appointments were missed last year, costing the NHS hundreds of millions of pounds and delaying treatment for other patients.

    I cannot think of a better reason for introducing charges for using NHS, paid in advance. Forfeiture for not keeping appointments. Re-imbursement in greater part for those with genuine complaints. The more serious the condition, the higher the reimbursement ratio.

    Yes folks,the rumours are spot on.

      Obviously correct but no-one of any party would have the balls to do it even though it would help the “sainted” NHS much more than any of the usual batch of barmy “initiatives”.

        They want to export the NHS so presumably no one in the world will bother to keep an appointment…

          Raving Loon says:

          How do you export a government monopoly? Will it be like how Blair exported our military into Iraq?

          • I can think of 650 people we could export to say North Korea for five years, Loon. That would present the following opportunities:

            1. It would enable the restoration of the Palace of Westminster

            2. It would enable the country to get up off it’s knees again

            3. The money saved would pay for any repairs and

            4. There would no longer be a bad example set out for all wasters and free-loaders to aspire to.

            What bliss!

    Ken Maginnis forced to leave Ulster Unionist Party because he exercised his freedom of speech.

    A politician of courage, vision, integrity and 50 years service to the community is the last thing we want around really…

    UKIP.i.am.awake says:

    Labour’s disastrous decision for the country to raise taxes on the rich to 50% has caused the double dip recession. Anyone with any money and sense (and you don’t get loadsamoney by being stupid) will either employ tax accountants to pay even less tax than they were doing before or leave the country or not bother to invest in their businesses at all as they will be be severely punished if they are successful.

    So up pipes that loony Clegg and calls for the rich to be punished even more with more taxes and so keep the country in recession for much longer. And idiots like him are in positions of power.

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.
