Sadiq’s Dodgy Donor Kebab and the Curse Of David Morris
Guido’s Sunday Column is Now Online

Quite a mix in Guido’s column yesterday; from Stringfellow and Clegg, Balls throwing his weight around and even Bryan Ferry pops up. Guido’s favourites included the curse of David Morris and Sadiq dodgy donor kebab:

TALKING of 80s chart-toppers, if you see Rick Astley’s former keyboardist-turned-Tory MP David Morris travelling anywhere, run away – the man seems to be cursed. Not only was the MP for Morecambe an extremely close witness to the recent London helicopter crash on the way into work, he spent Friday night building snowmen on the M6, stranded in his car by the weather. In both cases he took to Sky News to discuss his plight. It seems the profile-conscious MP is never going to give you up when it comes to free publicity.

SOME were surprised to see the over-abundant Shadow Public Health Minister Diane Abbott declare war on fried chicken shops and takeaways recently, especially in the same week that her Labour colleague the Shadow Minister for London, Sadiq Khan, promoted the Best British Kebab Awards in Parliament. Khan said: “It is important that we take the time to celebrate the fantastic establishments.” And why do you think Khan is such a fan of the industry? Nothing to do with the £5,000 donated to his 2010 re-election campaign by the Tayyab Kebab House in his constituency…

Guido’s Sunday Column Now Online

Guido’s Sunday column had more of the fallout from Dave’s speech that never was, and David Miliband’s well oiled shadow campaign team, but his favourite story had to be about Dave’s wonderful man-management skills:

“DAVE’S grip over his party’s loyalty is slipping even further and he’s becoming a figure of fun – lethal to a leader. When asking how one MP’s relationship was with the Prime Minister, Guido was told he was the wrong person to ask, as he’d only spoken to the Prime Minister once – when Dave stood on his shoe and then did not apologise. Hard to recover when you start off on the wrong foot.”

Guido is also still chuckling at this one too:

“THIRTEEN years ago, the politically influential Climatic Research Unit of the University of East Anglia – the leading scaremongers about man-made global warming – warned us that within just a few years “children just aren’t going to know what snow is” and that it will be “a very rare and exciting event”. Last week, a foot of this mythical snow stuff closed 3,000 schools, triggered power cuts, shut airports and caused chaos on the roads. As it did last year. And the year before that.”

Elsewhere delusional London mayor hopeful Sadiq Khan has hit a brick wall of derision from his rivals in the Labour Party, also north of the border the leader of Glasgow council was busted performing a gay sex act in a car. And the sad news of “Ed Balls dead at 45″. Yesterday’s column is now online here

In Guido’s Daily Star Sunday column:

  • Labour’s new “Shadow Minister for London” Sadiq Khan eyes the Mayoralty. Who are the rivals who say “No You Khant?”
  • Dave’s relationship with backbenchers explained in a nutshell.
  • Another blow for the Glasgow Labour leadership: from cocaine to police caution for gay public “sex act”.
  • David Miliband trousers £1.1 million since “losing”. Blairite Lord Sainsbury funds his comeback campaign with half-a-million.
  • Green peer reviewed climate research scaremongering from yesteryear: “children just aren’t going to know what snow is”.
  • Newsroom shock at the “death” of the Shadow Chancellor.

Ed Balls stretches credulity by claiming he isn’t ambitious

“I would love to be part of Ed’s Labour government but what I do next for me is not an all-consuming passion. I’m more bothered, in a personal sense, about getting to grade 8 piano by the time I’m 50.”
