Clegg v Farron

Last night’s statement went well then. As if today’s papers were not bad enough for the LibDems, the party leader and party president have given a masterclass in being unable to stick to the same line this morning. First, Tim Farron went for a straightforward approach on the Today programme, admitting “we screwed this up”. Minutes later Clegg refuted that suggestion, telling Radio Solent “we have nothing to hide as a party”. Last night Farron refused to deny this would be a resigning issue for his boss if last night’s revelations were true…














Aha, looks like the Lib Dem cover-up has been flushed out.
Sex pests getting protected by some of the highest figures in the land? Clegg is in the run now with even his own colleagues going public with doubt.
I’m groping at straws. It feels different.
What’s all the fuss about? Everyone knows the LimpDumbs have always had borderline persuasions and tried to cover this up. They’ve been doing this for decades.
Certainly is time to deal with these sex scandals. However, bad as groping is, I am much more interested in the following;
Who disbanded the police operation into the Elm Guest House one day before they were due to make 16 arrests in the 80s?
What happened to the dossier given to Leon Britton by Geoffrey Dickens and which the Home Office now say they have mislaid?
Who (and on whose orders) stripped the Scotland Yard file of the surveillance pics of the Elm Guest House showing numerous ministers and MPs (amongst others). The stripping of the file has been confirmed by the policeman involved who checked it and found lots of material removed in the early 90s.
If Guido fails to pursue these matters the only conclusion can be that Guido is being ‘guided’ by his masters.
“If Guido fails to pursue”
Why don’t you go and pursue it? It would appear that you feel strongly enough about it to post a comment and bring Elm House to a wider audience.
Start here and begin digging… http://www.met.police.uk/foi/
I am already using what means are available. It seems odd that the story is being ignored by the Murdoch press and his puppet Guido whilst other papers such as the Mail are making an effort. The guilty are not just those who should have been arrested in the 80s but also those who continue to assist in the cover up today. And Guido is either for the truth or guilty.
Good posts!
And I completely endorse.
It does make you wonder what GO and DC meant when they said “we are all in it together”…just who were the target audience for that comment and what was the the real message (to the establishment)?
Today I will be mostly playing You Need Hands by Max Bygraves.
I note the BBC (Rick Nobinson in particular) is suggesting that this has all come out because the baby eating tories are stirring. The only politicians I have seen on the television stirring it is the vile Labour MPs.
Bleeding typical BBC propaganda.
The only thing you have to fear is truth itself .
I am willing to be a witness in Nick Clegg’s defence
We too will be happy to help
Keep voting for us. Yes we are corrupt self-serving hypocrites whose only interest is defrauding the public purse and increasing the wealth and influence of ourselves, our families and our cronies but that’s what democracy is designed for.
You can add UKIP to that list now.
You forgot to include UKIP (or as explained by Marta Andreason, a one man party led by a particularly stupid misogynist who thinks he has a direct line to God).
But did he grope her? I think not.
Not sure. A simple question to Farrago ‘have you still got your balls?’ should confirm it one way or another.
You can the quality of a man by the enemies he makes.
Ukip now polling 2nd in Eastleigh,very close to Tories in 1st position.
The plebs are very very very slowly starting to wake up.
UKRAP is a one trick pony. The people of Eastleigh aren’t that daft.
They quite obviously are.
Marta Andersons ‘s record is not a good one check out her EU involvement she seems to attend just to draw the allowances she is a non contributor. Like most Con/Lab/Lib dem members. She joined them don’t forget that.
What tricks do the Lib/Dems have?

Feels like Deja vu all over again sweetie.
1. Lord Perv
2. Lord Grope
You choose.
Lord Britton.
I think we’ve got a very clear message, a loud and clear message that Britain cannot let up in dealing with its debts, dealing with its problems, cannot let up in making sure that Britain can pay its way in the world.
I think you left out the word “third” somewhere near the end of that statement.
Wunashun from the dream team!
I’ll be your one asian in your one nation!
One donation more like, Labour is in hock to the loony union barons.
Union backed MPs aren’t very bright, are they? Not that the other Labour MPs are clever, but the union ones are a hoot. Like thicko Ian Lavery.
That’s the mother of parliamentary own goals!
Lavery’s name will rhyme with incompetence and humiliation for a thousand years. Total prattage.
‘We screwed up’ and ‘we have nothing to hide’ are not contradictory comments.
Yes they are. “We have nothing to hide” means you did nothing wrong. “We screwed up” means you did something wrong.
Stupidity is no excuse for misuse of the English language (unless English Comprehension 101 is a handle for someone with a native language other than English).
SO: whenever you make a mistake, you have to cover it up.
Surely he means he’s looking for head?
In my day it was deemed an honour to be touched up by a Lord.
That’s what I told all the lasses I fondled. “You should be honoured I’m fingering you, love”, I said as they screamed and tried to run for the door.
Most of my victims would have been happy if it had stopped at touching up.
I’ve got your back
Stop rubbing it, please.
Guido

I read this and my blood boiled

When are heads going to roll at the arrogant criminal BBC FFS?
And when are nthese fucking threatning lawyers going to be charged with harrassment for behaving like cheap thugs?
But we make a fortune every year threatening anyone who outs our criminal clients…
How will we survive if we have to obey the law?
Yawn, another Mong DM “reader” posting links. Fuck off you tabloid “reading” moron.
Could explain why the Big Brother Corporation are heavily advertising the Lib Dem groping Lord woes.
If true then the Audit Commission and OFT should be in there by tonight.
You must be a BBC executive judging by your reaction…
And I demand my £5…
Should be quite a scrap between Clogg and Mitchell for the Euro-job in 2014 – two failed cabinet ministers scrambling for the last seat on the gravy train.
They are all honourable men.
Let me have men about me who are fat,
Sleek-headed men and such as sleep of nights.
Yon Cassius hath a lean and hungry look,
He thinks too much. Such men are dangerous.
There are calls today from within the Lib Dem party for the leader to resign. Clegg should hang his head in shame and resign now. Sadly he is a sociopath who is shameless and narcissistic but, after the by-election, the momentum will build up to force him out.
He should be followed by the disgusting Jo Swinson MP, a self-styled “women’s rights champion” who conspired to cover up the abuse.
And there I was in line for a nice Commissioner of Woman’s Rights job in Euroland. Damn Lord Grope.
The good thing about farron is that he isn’t really a life long professional politician. More of a local councillor that got lucky.
As opposed to Domestos Hutchings? A local councillor that got unlucky?
And Milliband who was unlucky to be born in a communist household with a more talented brother.
As opposed to all the PPEs, the SPADs and parachutists
Rather ironic that Jo puts herself up as a crusader for women. Seems to have forgotten that when women came to her with allegations of sexual harrassment against Fat Controller.
Jo Swinson is a sickening hypocrite who poses as a feminist but helped Clegg and Rennard to cover up the scandal.
She’s got a nice rack though.
Nothing to see here…no Tories involved….move along please
Let’s just say Lord Ashcroft is involved.
How did I get this job? I just turned up.
Its all Fatcher’s fault.
The night a young female researcher ran in tears from Lord Rennard’s room and told a packed hotel bar: He fondled me
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2283928/Female-researcher-ran-tears-Lord-Rennards-room-told-packed-hotel-bar-He-fondled-me.html#ixzz2Lu4j1ERb
The real question should be
Was she worth fondling?
And what was she doing “in his room”
My mother told me that when you go to an older man’s room, it is only for one reason…
To do the cleaning,and,put the kettle on….
I am merely continuin g the tradition of honesty, class and statesmanship of my worthy precedessor Lord Prezza of Jags, Shags and Multiple disgraces…
It goes with the High Office of State..
I will get my coat shortly (and a life peerage, of course) and go to Brussels where they love me…
You can find some very tasty scraps in dustbins.
We make sure our accusers are disappeared. Don’t fuck with Labour. There’s nothing we won’t stoop to.
Vote Ukip in Eastleigh – stuff the Lib . Lab . Con Party of pervs & crooks.
Vote UKIP = decrease Tory majority = Lib Dems win.
Only safe pro-British vote is Conservative. Simple.
The Conservative Party doesn’t exist anymore, They are all spendthrift PC con artists led by the Head Ponco Dave
LibLabCon = more EU, more uncontrolled immigration, more windmills, higher electricity bills, higher taxs, lower pensions, more Liverpool care pathway, more Stafford hospitals, 5 million Bulgarians and Romanians, bedroom taxes, mansion taxes, more big business offshore tax avoidance, higher penalties for individual tax payers, gold plated inflation pensions for government workers, unlimited Indian visas, more terrorists and criminals we can’t support, bigger houses for same terrorists and legal aid, more benefits for immigrants, more lying by MPs and troughing at the money teat as they destroy the UK by their traitorous behaviour.
The 3 useless LibLabCon parties cannot be trusted.
Its time to give Ukip a chance.
Vote Ukip, get Ukip.
Vote UKIP = vote Izzrael
Vote labour = get Muslim Brotherhood and George Galloway
SNAFU
I’m Karl Pilkingtons father.
Where there’s smoke there’s toast. Clegg is toast. Correction, his party is also toast.
The electorate is sick of establishment cover-ups. NHS, Clergy, BBC, the list just goes on and on. Good riddance I say….
Come to us Nick. We get paid oodles of euros and we don’t give a fuck about pleb voters.
BBC & some RC priests must be thanking God for finding a sleezier group of people. More champers Boaden.
I doubt whether anyone at the BBC or the priests believe in God.
I arrested Rolf Harris
I arrested Garry Glitter
I arrested Lord Rennard
I arrested Dave Lee Travis
I arrested Max Clifford
I arrested Michael le Vell
I arrested Cliff Richard
I arrested Leon Brittan
I arrested Cardinal O’Brien
AND THE WINNER IS>>>>
Jonathan King, Lord McAlpine and Michael Jackson.
I have just discovered that the tub of crisps I brought to work thinking they were pepper flavour are in fact Cheddar flavour.
I mention this because I see it as a metaphor for what’s happening with the LibDems – you think they are one thing, but in fact they are another.
Which I could have said without the crisps bit, but I believe that the metaphor of the crisps gives more depth and meaning to this profound insight.
You are Garry Lineker and that is the most intelligent thing you have ever said. Ergo you can keep the fiver.
My name’s not Ergo!! It’s Gary, and I am a rich big-eared crisp-promoting money-taking adulterer. Oh hold on – can we do a re-take please…
Let’s all have a bit of fun with this trivial story, while persistent government overspending drags us all down to the debtors’ prison.
Exactly so, Sir William. Your personal share of the Debt has increased by another fiver since midnight. The same as every man, woman, and child in the U.K.
Dave promised to eliminate the Deficit during this Parliament. THE LYING CNUT
Wake up Joe Public and get your head around the enormity of the Debt.
5,300 bn for the pensions. All off the Books,
The Bank for International Settlements,Financial stability board,Financial stability
forum,IMF,OECD,Federal reserve,G20,Bilderberg,all may have a bit to do with world economics,all very democratic,NOT…
It was Mrs Thatches fault… the DM DM DM are right wing!.. Lard Reinhart is innocent.. they were all asking for it!
How did this fat, fecking idiot become a Lord ffs? Were they giving out free Lordships with MacDonald’s and Bargain Bucket KFC’s?
It’s what’s known as “cash for honours”. I know a thing or two about this sort of thing!
It’s the UK Parliamentary version of the Peter Principle, innit?
Which is basically, if you have the problem of your “peter” always going on the heater, if you will, they promote you to the House of Lords. (Cf John Prescott in connection with fat feckin’ idiot habitue of McD and KFC.)
I’ve got a little puppy in my parliamentary office. Would you like to come and stroke it?
It won’t bite my pussy will it?
I could drive a coach and horses through this story.
Don’t you mean your ex-wife could?
“What’s afoot?” I wondered, hearing a noise in the early hours.
Farron’s performance on Sky News last night was quite appalling. I wonder if he is worried that the next scandal will be on his shoulders ? By all accounts he leads somewhat of a double life ??
As in Frank Bough? Mark Oaten? Tell us more!
And a masterclass being delivered in how to lead a party towards political oblivion!
