He was chiefly responsible for the "sainted" NHS policy of " Die in agony with no help if You dare to mortgage Your house/ spend all your life savings on treatments We won't provide for You." As for his treatment of the hapless Gary McKinnon, this is predictable and continues the Juntas tradition of victimising the most vulnerable. ( See Blind Pew/ Maxine Carr.) All of this trademark unpleasantness delivered with His usual brand of grinning boyish south eastern charm. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Nobody else seems to have mentioned this but yesterday mornings execrable performance on " The Politics Show" made the supreme leader look almost efficient. From the off He was armed and dangerous, ready to fill us in on the tories, their cuts, the tories, they are nasty, the tories, will ruin the "recovery". If You didn't know about the tories by now, well you soon would! ( By the way "the tories" have been out of government since 1997 is what you didn't hear, and the tories are not responsible for the state of the economy.) All good until the impertinent interviewer asked a question. The resulting train wreck was something to see. I'll not break it down here but some strange stuff did come out in the rambling responses. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;He said, honestly he did, remember what it was like in 1997! I do remember 1997, very well, and very fondly. An economy that was booming, best employment figures for years, house prices picking up, that 1997. It wasn't all good however, the country made a grave error in my view, but then who wanted the awful tories to carry on spoiling the party?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;He said, really he did , there is noone better than Brown to lead the country. So in the labour party they can't beat a washed up, raving, serially dishonest, obfuscating, incredibly unpopular nutter. If He is the best I can't imagine the worst.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Finally asked if He would debate the BNP, he was back with the boyish offensive, puffed up and smug he declared, " I havent shared a platform with a fascist in 45 years." Nice one Al! Small point here, you lot have been alienating so many people over the last 12 years, many of them haven't given a thought as to the wider policies of the BNP and just see it this way. You hate them take their money and give it to people they hate. The BNP, they think, is on their side, and against those who have always let them down. The BNP have direct unchallenged access to them, no awkward questions asked. So I say this to You Al, empty chair the fascists by all means,&lt;strong&gt;but if You don't share a platform with a fascist now and ask the right questions, you could find yourself sharing a platform with a fascist soon enough.

Who refused to allow the BNP a platform to expose their odious, ridiculous and unworkable policies? Who alienated the white working class male, their core voters? Whose fault is it that so many people are losing their jobs? Who insulted British workers, saying they were unskilled and lazy.

Never in the history of parliamentary politics has one man stood above all, smugly content to put himself before the people, his party, his friends and his family in the vain pursuit of his own personal glory. Gordon Brown is a vain, avaricious, cowardly, self obsessed, functionally inarticulate, bullying braggart. He is not only the worst person ever to hold the post of Prime Minister ( and First Lord of the Treasury), a role to which he was elected neither by party or by country. He is also the worst cabinet minister and the worst MP ever to hold office, he is utterly unfit for purpose, if there is nobody better to lead the Labour party, then God help the labour party and God help all of us. It must follow therefore that anybody not associated with this pathetically discredited (dis) organisation is better qualified to lead the country than anyone within it, fair enough!&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 144px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 200px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5344703610704638882" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SiwzndHMM6I/AAAAAAAAAPI/rzj4AFRacNA/s200/brownMS0610_468x648.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;The labour party is preparing itself for its worst nightmare, when Brown is forced constitutionally to face his worst nightmare, election by the people he has always held in the utmost contempt the party will face a pointy reckoning, the people of this country are indeed angry, furious even at parliaments disgraceful larceny, but they are more so at the ruination of their country. Last year the party suffered numerous electoral humiliations, the loss of Crewe and Nantwich stood out for the utterly crass nature of the campaign, particularly as the bye-election was brought about by the death of the redoubtable party stalwart Gwyneth Dunwoody, and the candidate was her own daughter. On Thursday the parties county councillors were turfed out en masse, as the country took the opportunity to give their verdict on Gordon Brown, they also had the opportunity to do likewise through the elections to the European parliament. ( As yet the results are not known but they should be humiliating to say the least.)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;And yet on they go content to group themselves around their man, two potential leaders David Milliband and Alan Johnson have proven themselves unfit by their craven cowardice, the price they will pay will be far greater than the one they would have payed for showing backbone and wielding the knife, which may have saved their party and their political futures. Of those that quit James Purnell and Caroline " Bernie" Flint should live to fight another day, the latter undeservedly given her irritatingly sour demeanour and gormless performances on Question Time. Of the rest Jacqui Smith has no political future, some may live, some may die I could care less.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Of the great destroyer he continues to live among toadies and sycophants, listening to noone, trotting out his usual rehearsed lines we've heard before. He answers no questions and hides away from the ordinary people he so clearly despises, wickedly he glories in the financial chaos he has wrought with his greed and ineptitude, shirking the blame pointing at opponents as if it was their doing and reminding us how pleased he is at the suffering and poverty that he has overseen. I would say that for the good of the country, his party, his family and himself this sorry fool should depart forthwith. It would be the best outcome for what it is worth. If however He remains to the bitter end then so be it. I look forward to his unprecedented humiliation, and enjoying it. I look forward also to the utter destruction of the labour party, for allowing this caledonian clown to run riot. Frankly I hate You, I hate your lies, I hate your stupid political correctness. I despise you, I despise your dimwitted sense of entitlement, I despise your hatred of the English and your contempt for the working man. I hope your life does not become too dull not being able to order us plebs around any more, you are heading for third place but in time fourth and fifth are up for grabs. Take your regional quangos. your ID cards. your snooping and your czars, get stuffed and go to hell. As for Gordon Brown I would wish him dead but I like the idea of him growing old, despised and derided the man who took the whole rotting hulk with him. Good riddance.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1787015415718068106-3922796263947327127?l=anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/feeds/3922796263947327127/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1787015415718068106&amp;postID=3922796263947327127' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/3922796263947327127'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/3922796263947327127'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/2009/06/will-nobody-rid-us-of-this-turbulent.html' title='Will nobody rid us of this turbulent prat?'/><author><name>King Athelstan</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08796189127188811779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='31' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SdJXBkE6qrI/AAAAAAAAAL4/hfUEj282sCs/S220/coin_athelstan_ob.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SiwzndHMM6I/AAAAAAAAAPI/rzj4AFRacNA/s72-c/brownMS0610_468x648.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1787015415718068106.post-3891864019336404603</id><published>2009-05-14T19:15:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2009-05-14T19:23:10.079+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='What follows hubris?'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Turds'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='McSkint'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Utterly shameless'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Sycophantic twaddle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Lying McBastard'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Busted Mcflush'/><title type='text'>BrownsLabour, desperate, dishonest, shabby and ignoring the main story.</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;That was the worst ever party election broadcast, period.

(That is one containing the DNA of everybody in the country.) I have every sympathy with Jill Saward and I believe that nobody should have to suffer what She did, but tragically people will, database or not. Apart from the massive cost, the unwieldy nature of a project which involves collecting and analysing intimate swabs from over 6 million people, 99% of which are useless precisely because they have not and never will belong to anyone that has committed a crime. Leave aside the fact that the govern ment has yet to commission a computer tha can accurately store the names and addresses of the population of a small town, or even the corruption such a system is open to. You can also probably forget the hundreds of thousands who live under the radar in this country ( including many who may commit the sort of crimes which DNA is used to detect.) Or the citizens of 26 other countries who are free to come and go. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;What sort of country do We want to live in? One where We are property of the state, to be bought and sold by unelected quangocrats? The police will find it easier to work with the profiles of known offenders, who will offend again, its why so many old crimes are now being detected, including The real killers of Lesley Molseed and Rachel Nickell. In the former case Yes DNA would have cleared Stefan Kizko, but He would not have been convicted had the police not lied to the court and supressed the evidence that would have cleared him, in addition to the lies told by a female colleague of Kizkos at the trial. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;I am quite willing to give My DNA to the police in order to eliminate Me from any enquiry, and happy for it to be checked against any records they have, then it should be destroyed. As for Ms Saward I can't take away what happened to You, and neither will this, bad people will do bad things and will usually get caught, as in Your case. Politicians are not clever enough to legislate crime out of existance so don't try and attach yourself to them it can only make you look bad. The reason We are not fearful is because the chances are it will not happen to us, that it happened to you is a tragedy.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#66ff99;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Update&lt;/em&gt;, I forgot to mention that I don't really warm to the juntas idea that We are all potential criminals. I certainly do not need to be protected by such dull and inept pillocks as are currently failing to run the country, I don't trust them and they do not own me.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1787015415718068106-2663934011215983401?l=anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/feeds/2663934011215983401/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1787015415718068106&amp;postID=2663934011215983401' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/2663934011215983401'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/2663934011215983401'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/2009/05/juntas-useful-idiots.html' title='The Juntas useful idiots.'/><author><name>King Athelstan</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08796189127188811779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='31' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SdJXBkE6qrI/AAAAAAAAAL4/hfUEj282sCs/S220/coin_athelstan_ob.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SgbiGYehPCI/AAAAAAAAAOA/MVdHUlxs_Pw/s72-c/jillsawardBLOG.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1787015415718068106.post-2781405777864312242</id><published>2009-05-10T13:50:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2009-05-10T13:58:13.198+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Thieving git'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Joannas bitch'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Cretins'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Utterly shameless'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fraudster'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Quelle surprise'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Trough pigs'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Over sensitive Liebour Nonentities'/><title type='text'>Woolas, " I didn't, Oh yes I did "</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SgbPSo6RUAI/AAAAAAAAAN4/ZcbMuGvckK8/s1600-h/Gurkha%2BCampaigners%2BShow%2BAnger%2BAfter%2BTest%2BCase%2BOM7RNwgzhzpl.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5334178727793348610" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 132px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SgbPSo6RUAI/AAAAAAAAAN4/ZcbMuGvckK8/s200/Gurkha%2BCampaigners%2BShow%2BAnger%2BAfter%2BTest%2BCase%2BOM7RNwgzhzpl.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;But only because He was told to apparently.

Pretty soon, when there is an election, what with Her paper thin majority, massive unemployment in Redditch, public disgust at her swiiling at the public trough and her husbands antics, Ms Smiff will be joining the queue with said husband. Goody. Last time Ms Smiff appeared on telly looking misty eyed it was because the new London Mayor had told her Liebour supporting, incompetent, witless etc. Sir Ian Blair to sling his hook. I get the impression when she can no longer poke her big hooter into our personal business, she will be misty eyed again.

The cult of New Labour was built on deception and dishonesty, greed, threats and political thuggery. The country has been brought low by men with black hearts and empty souls, who, with the certainty of newly enlightened 16 year olds, eschewed the Christian principles that made this country the beacon of democracy and tolerance that it had always been, and turned it into a place of anger and fury, of resentment and fear, of low standards and intolerance and of personal greed and waste. So now the country stands apart, mocked and ridiculed for its leaders pursuit of Mammon, despised for its lack of grace and pillaged by those who saw it as an opportunity to fill their coffers at ordinary peoples expense.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;It is then heartening to know that there are a few good men of principle within the parliamentary party, they will be needed to begin the rebuilding after the coming storm, (and come it will ). Men such as &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/www.frankfield.com"&gt;Frank Field&lt;/a&gt;, late minister of the crown and a man who can still remember why He stood for election and why He chose his party. It is clear that Mr Field struggles to recognise the corruption and evil that rots the government, &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/archbishop-cranmer.blogspot.com"&gt;Cranmer&lt;/a&gt; believes He should cross the floor but I am not so sure. Good men of Christian principle like Frank Field must be on hand after the chaos to do what must be done, May the Good Lord guide him in his labours.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1787015415718068106-119091428119862207?l=anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/feeds/119091428119862207/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1787015415718068106&amp;postID=119091428119862207' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/119091428119862207'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/119091428119862207'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/2009/04/good-christian-man-at-heart-of-darkness.html' title='A Good Christian Man At The Heart Of The Darkness'/><author><name>King Athelstan</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08796189127188811779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='31' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SdJXBkE6qrI/AAAAAAAAAL4/hfUEj282sCs/S220/coin_athelstan_ob.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SeTnowy8wMI/AAAAAAAAAM4/lTNf5qpNYMA/s72-c/frank-field_28555t.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1787015415718068106.post-7091506672282715498</id><published>2009-04-12T15:30:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2009-04-12T16:54:55.200+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='What follows hubris?'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Cretins'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Jockanese Junta'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Lying McBastard'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Death Of Democracy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Busted Mcflush'/><title type='text'>If You tolerate this then...</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SeINhg3oxfI/AAAAAAAAAMg/913oMaLqSzk/s1600-h/GordonBrown.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5323832578915485170" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SeINhg3oxfI/AAAAAAAAAMg/913oMaLqSzk/s200/GordonBrown.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Remember Tony Blairs promise of "whiter than white" government ? of course it didn't last very long. Remember too Gordon Browns promise of a new kind of government, having just bullied and plotted his way into the top job, the only PM in my lifetime at least never to have been elected by party or people. So what have we got here ? It seems that the party of government has been unable to deal with the large number of " right wing " bloggers undermining their every move. In the absence of top Labour friendly bloggers to compete with the leading Tory friendly blogs, especially Iain Dales Diary and the Guido Fawkes blog by Paul Staines. Now as with most good blogs these are not funded by any political party, they are not national newspapers and they have no outside influence. These are just the work of individuals free to write and say whatever they like without any restraint, and so good are they at this that many people, not always like minded, read them every day.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SeIN3vfL7rI/AAAAAAAAAMo/gNrgBaihPgk/s1600-h/mcbride-brown-460_1382765c.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5323832960796585650" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 125px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SeIN3vfL7rI/AAAAAAAAAMo/gNrgBaihPgk/s200/mcbride-brown-460_1382765c.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Clearly it is beyond the wit of Brown and his minions how this works. Last year the shambolic, disgraced ex lobbyist Derek Draper was brought back to pioneer an online rebuttal system to compete with " right wing " bloggers. The result has been a car crash. Draper is rude, ignorant and dishonest, completely unable to stick with a story and appears on TV looking unkempt and ranting so wildly He needs to be upbraided by the presenter. Much as he tries to deny it his Labourlist is sponsored by the party and so is doomed to failure, not that it is any good anyway.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SeIOpCgBofI/AAAAAAAAAMw/2zL8LXgNdM0/s1600-h/derek-draper.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5323833807713968626" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SeIOpCgBofI/AAAAAAAAAMw/2zL8LXgNdM0/s200/derek-draper.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;So far out of it are the government that the PM's personal adviser Damian McBride, ( a civil servant by the way, ) started emailing Draper suggesting that they set up a Guido style blog called Red Rag, and use it to smear top tories with unfounded allegations in the belief that it would " destabilise " the tories. You can begin to see the problem already. I'm not going to go through the contents here but suffice to say government computers and taxpayers money were used to discuss obscene false and libellous allegations against politcal opponents. The emails found their way into Mr Staines posession and He was soon making it clear He was going to go public with them, a last ditch attempt to divert attention by publishhing a story in the Telegraph on Saturday morning failed and McBride was toast by 5 O clock Yesterday. A harsh lesson in the way things work.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;This hasn't died yet, one of the&lt;em&gt; smearees &lt;/em&gt;tory MP Nadine Dorries, a formidable backbencher is lets just say, incandescent about the story that was discussed about her. She is consulting lawyers about the matter and demanding an apology from the Prime Minister no less. Draper is bleating like a deranged sheep that McBride shouldn't have gone, that the emails were a private joke between mates and that Mr Staines should not have published them. Clearly Draper is an embarassment the party can ill afford to be associated with much longer, and the responsible minister, Tom Watson, is now in the firing line too. But what does this say of Gordon Browns judgement? the Prime Minister likes to sermonise to us about his great skills of leadership, and his statesmanship. These men are close to the Prime Minister, these are people He trusts. Last year the government lost a safe seat in a bye-election by crassly insulting the people of Crewe and Nantwich with a staggeringly puerile campaign, can nobody tell him this really isn't working?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Draper likes to put it about that Paul Staines is backed by the tories, either He is terminally dense or just plain pathalogically dishonest, whatever He really doesn't have a clue how it works. My hat off to Paul Staines for his magnificent coup, it was wonderful to watch it unfold, I wish I had half his skill.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1787015415718068106-7091506672282715498?l=anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/feeds/7091506672282715498/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1787015415718068106&amp;postID=7091506672282715498' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/7091506672282715498'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/7091506672282715498'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/2009/04/if-you-tolerate-this-then.html' title='If You tolerate this then...'/><author><name>King Athelstan</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08796189127188811779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='31' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SdJXBkE6qrI/AAAAAAAAAL4/hfUEj282sCs/S220/coin_athelstan_ob.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SeINhg3oxfI/AAAAAAAAAMg/913oMaLqSzk/s72-c/GordonBrown.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1787015415718068106.post-7222604082595413442</id><published>2009-04-06T17:00:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2009-04-06T17:35:46.333+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='McSkint'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Jockanese Junta'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Quelle surprise'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='General gripery'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Splenetic diatribe'/><title type='text'>1997 and all that # 1 Don't vote Tory because of the Health cuts.</title><content type='html'>So how about the next time some dribbling cretin of a liebour panjandram starts going on about all the wonderful things the government have been doing about ........ since the dark days of 1997, You just shut the idiot up with some well aimed dentistry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The tories just don't care about health do they? Well I first moved to Stafford in 1989, one of the first things I noticed was the brand new hospital very near the middle of the town. My wife trained as a nurse there, (apropos of nothing so did Kenneth Clarkes daughter,) both of My sons were born there and generally it stood as an example of all that was good about the county town. So after nearly 12 years of Liebour ministry how did it come to be a national disgrace ?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't think there is any one single reason for it, just the drip drip of eye-catching initiatives that used to be this governments hallmark, until they started doing an impression of some kleptocratic banana republic, filling their boots while the country collapses around them. Meaningless targets, where treating cut fingers is the same as treating major traumatic injuries. pointless flagship legislation like foundation hospitals, pertinent here, which means nothing to real people, cut price cleaning contracts ( peanuts, monkeys You know the score, ) I could go on. In the end as &lt;em&gt;any fule no&lt;/em&gt; the key to running a good hospital is well trained and motivated doctors and nurses, along with immaculate cleanliness, until they realise that there is where the money needs to be channelled this will continue. Dont hold your breath.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;My MP Michael Fabricant says that in 1999 He was told by ambulance paramedics that in life threatening cases it was better to go to Queens hospital Burton, than Stafford, though He made enquiries at the time, He was "fobbed off."&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1787015415718068106-7222604082595413442?l=anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/feeds/7222604082595413442/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1787015415718068106&amp;postID=7222604082595413442' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/7222604082595413442'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/7222604082595413442'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/2009/04/1997-and-all-that-1-dont-vote-tory.html' title='1997 and all that # 1 Don&apos;t vote Tory because of the Health cuts.'/><author><name>King Athelstan</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08796189127188811779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='31' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SdJXBkE6qrI/AAAAAAAAAL4/hfUEj282sCs/S220/coin_athelstan_ob.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1787015415718068106.post-5795847775885071928</id><published>2009-04-06T16:39:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2009-04-06T17:40:05.790+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Good riddance to bad rubbish'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='skanky hoe'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Pox ridden hags'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Genetically unsound'/><title type='text'>They just don't get it do they?</title><content type='html'>So Britains new golden couple, are sentenced for their unwelcome behaviour in a South London supermarket.

But while Your there why not march past a bunch of filthy, indolent, scrounging, beardy mosque-rats, and their scrim-faced scrubbers kicking up a stink, much to the disgust of any right thinking human being who realises that these good men are, after all, only doing their job whatever their thoughts on the war.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So are these stinking pigdogs incredibly brave as well as phenominally idiotic? NO! because they are only doing it because they are being allowed to, given the protection of plod. No doubt this is in line with government diktats on "equality" and "diversity". but without plod they wouldn't be there, because they would get what's coming to them, in spades, ( and rightly so too ). So these brave soldiers of Islam are effectively officially sanctioned on their bold jihad, and guess who's paying for this? well You the tax-payer (including the good men of the Royal Anglian Regiment of course,) are funding this verminous lot in the shape of benefits that amount to more than the aforementioned troops are paid in wages. And who is paying for plod to preserve the "yuman rights" of this scholarly lot, why the good people who's day was spoiled by their malodorous presence in the shape of extortionate council tax.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's not the first time of course that weve been insulted by the government this way, a couple of years ago a load of them got animated about some satirical cartoons they hadn't seen, in a small circulation regional newspaper, they hadn't heard of, and gained official sanction to march through the streets of the capital, letting us know exactly what they wanted to do to us, ( beheading us mainly ), although nobody in the country had the spine to publish the offending items. Meanwhile Jack Sinister the then foreign secretary made a great spectacle of himself, soiling his pants in public whilst railing against the feckless danes. All this had the effect of sending me and many like me running to the computer to see what the fuss was about, ( not a lot BTW ).&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1787015415718068106-8099291120418625180?l=anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/feeds/8099291120418625180/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1787015415718068106&amp;postID=8099291120418625180' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/8099291120418625180'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/8099291120418625180'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/2009/03/what-allah-wants-allah-gets-or-you-pay.html' title='What Allah Wants Allah Gets ( Or You Pay For Plod And This Is What You Get! )'/><author><name>King Athelstan</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08796189127188811779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='31' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SdJXBkE6qrI/AAAAAAAAAL4/hfUEj282sCs/S220/coin_athelstan_ob.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1787015415718068106.post-4766269599246540145</id><published>2009-03-02T19:21:00.000Z</published><updated>2009-03-12T00:57:07.836Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='What follows hubris?'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Jockanese Junta'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Lying McBastard'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kafka in London'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Death Of Democracy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Screwing the armed forces since 1997'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Busted Mcflush'/><title type='text'>Zimbab-UK#2 Do You Really Think You Will Get A Vote?</title><content type='html'>I'm not the only one who's been hinting at this, and if You look at the signs it's there before You.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The question is, after Brown has invested so much time and effort to get where he is without recourse to either the public or his party, how much chance do You really think there is that he will sacrifice all that?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Look at the reality of the situation, The country is in deep shit, in spite of Browns spinning nobody is fooled, by now if You haven't lost Your job or are not in danger of doing so, You will probably know someone who has. The government is responding by hurling ever larger quantities of cash at the banks, without any due diligence, the result being the banks continue to fail, companies are going to the wall or shedding staff in an effort to survive, less taxpayers, more defaulting, banks collapse, more bailouts and so it continues.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Consider this, The Civil Contingencies act (2004), is there to bring in in cases of emergency. It gives almost complete power to the state, i.e. Gordon Brown  to effectively suspend democracy and crack down on dissenters, opposition politicians, journalists etc. Widespread civil unrest is expected this summer. The government can "create" a terrorist threat at any time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Consider this, Soldiers returning to UK posts are being asked if they are willing to open fire on UK civilians. Now the army despise Brown who has screwed them royally, dancing to the tune of the old liebour who see the forces as a suitable target to exact "revenge for the miners" upon, ( this along with war on middle England is the sole raison d'etre of the remains of old liebour and Harridan Harperson,). Nonetheless, there are individuals within the army who are willing to shoot at anything they are told to, armed or unarmed, no questions asked, just for fun.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ther is no election forthcoming. Brown does not consider us worthy of deciding who runs the country, He is right and We'd better get used to it and get in our place or else.

For some reason this particular crime has incensed Me, probably because I can't remember &lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/Sac_esniQqI/AAAAAAAAALk/2xuCyYxc1yc/s1600-h/pox+ridden+hag.bmp"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5307280482485027490" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/Sac_esniQqI/AAAAAAAAALk/2xuCyYxc1yc/s200/pox+ridden+hag.bmp" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;such a pathetically pointless act nor a more arrogantly random assault. I should point out that a violent and unprovoked assault as well, as is evident from the footage shown today, a cowardly one too, if it results in the victims death, is murder. The fact that Virasami hit the " wrong " person, is irrelevant, if the intended victim of this Sub-neanderthal half-wit had accused, one assumes correctly, Richardson, of queue-jumping, why is that an excuse? simple answer it isn't. If Virasami had hit the " right" person it makes no difference, it was a trivial matter and I believe "&lt;em&gt;De minima non curat lex," &lt;/em&gt;so it should have been a juries decision, not a deal which insults the victim and his family. It should be said that the sentences will be derisory, and these two parasites will soon be back bothering the long suffering public and living off the state while the usual army of, liebour supporting, do-gooders make more excuses for them. A good man dies and a sick paralysed legal system fails to deliver justice, again. If Virasami had worn a turban and claimed to have hit an"infidel" in the name of Allah He'd have had the full weight of the law against Him, its time to wake up to the fact that their are bigger problems than a few bedwetting islamist fornicators in this land.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Update; At the time of planning this rant I hadn't realised that Virasami was black, so if anyone thinks any of this terminology inappropriate, can I say that he and his skanky hoe are a pair of knuckle dragging, parasitic, sub-neanderthal baboons whether they are black or white.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It also hadn't occurred to me that Richardson was a skag-head, and that their reason for being in such an affluent area was to fund her habit via the usual means, shoplifting. Additionally I suspect that a loser like Virasami is the type of person to use his race as an excuse for his being an utter waste of natural resources.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1787015415718068106-6366710729245956723?l=anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/feeds/6366710729245956723/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1787015415718068106&amp;postID=6366710729245956723' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/6366710729245956723'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/6366710729245956723'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/2009/02/im-not-apologising-for-saying-this.html' title='I&apos;m not apologising for saying this, these two knuckle dragging primitives, should never have been born, and its a waste of scarce funds feeding them.'/><author><name>King Athelstan</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08796189127188811779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='31' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SdJXBkE6qrI/AAAAAAAAAL4/hfUEj282sCs/S220/coin_athelstan_ob.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/Sac_e8qEE4I/AAAAAAAAALs/05EajtbH6P8/s72-c/_45515090_split.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1787015415718068106.post-5384877782218121257</id><published>2009-02-24T18:14:00.001Z</published><updated>2009-02-24T18:55:05.070Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='What follows hubris?'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Turds'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Cretins'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Jockanese Junta'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Death Of Democracy'/><title type='text'>A Plague on Both Your Houses.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SaRCacMe7XI/AAAAAAAAAK8/wXrfG0IHBUs/s1600-h/DavidCameronatCommons.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306439282961870194" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SaRCacMe7XI/AAAAAAAAAK8/wXrfG0IHBUs/s200/DavidCameronatCommons.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SaRBJP-bCdI/AAAAAAAAAK0/dzJ7an949rc/s1600-h/straw.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306437888112265682" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 88px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 88px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SaRBJP-bCdI/AAAAAAAAAK0/dzJ7an949rc/s400/straw.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Clearly the only reason that the Liebour filth ever introduced The Freedom Of Information Act was to give them the opportunity to expose Tory miscreancy. Presumably they felt in their high-handed way that nobody would ever find fault with such righteous and right thinking people as themselves, consequently the act has continuously come back to haunt them. The invasion of Iraq is the most shameful episode to have taken place in My lifetime, ( the Chagos archipellago aside, ) neither the Government nor, pathetically and utterly shamefully, the Tories can emerge from this cesspool of moral turpitude with a scion of credit. When in this enlightened age did it ever become neccessary to invent reasons or resort to xenophobia in order to start a war? I hardly need to mention the cost in terms of human life, or financially of this ill begotten misdeed.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;So it comes to pass that the stateless, reptillian gauleiter and junta apologist "Judge" Jack Sinister, today hammered a gigantic ( and possibly fatal, ) nail in the coffin of parliamentary democracy by burying the truth about this criminal fiasco, away from public view. And Who should collude with the evil ones? Why the Tories of course! Flashman has finally reverted to type. Much as the painful humiliation of Jocky and co can't come soon enough, I can't see myself voting Tory until sackcloth and ashes have been worn over Iraq. Meanwhile Shrove Tuesday 2009, mark it well, another black day for this beleaguered land.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

Well done for shooting that big trap of Yours off, yet again, this time over Jeremy Clarksons entirely accurate description of Your party leader and unelected first minister of England. First point, You say something should be done about Clarkson, I agree, He should be knighted forthwith.I was interested that You said that He had insulted Brown three times, calling him a liar, Scottish and one-eyed. ( I notice no mention of calling him an idiot, I suppose there are some things that You can't deny,)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Well George, Its easy for You who grew rich at the expense of English, as well as Scottish and Welsh workers to pretend to be angry, but there are really angry people out here in the real world, let me spell it out for You. What Clarkson said was nothing, nothing at all. We hate him, We hate You and Your freeloading ways, You don't have the right of outrage, You have no rights.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Also I wasn't aware that the Scots, who generally like to remind people of their Scottishness were so sensitive about being reminded of their nationality. Looking forward to Your imminent kicking next year,&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Yours, &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;King Athelstan.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1787015415718068106-606669373670708994?l=anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/feeds/606669373670708994/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1787015415718068106&amp;postID=606669373670708994' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/606669373670708994'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/606669373670708994'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/2009/02/open-letter-to-lord-george-foulkes-of.html' title='An Open Letter To Lord George Foulkes Of Cumnock P.C.

So I'm mystified as to why he felt the need to apologise for his largely inoffensive comment on the dear leader, &lt;em&gt;A one-eyed Scottish idiot,&lt;/em&gt;  Since he has one eye, is Scottish and is an idiot I see nothing to apologise for. Frankly given the state of the country, his offensive remarks regarding the strikes last week, his disgraceful attitude to political opponents, his attitude to democratic procedures, his attempts to ride on the backs of the armed forces, his suspect temperament and his petty-mindedness, its pretty mild stuff. His one eye is a feature that is well known to all, the reason for highlighting his nationality is that he makes an issue of it himself, ( as well as signing the Scottish claim of right, thereby promising to put Scotlands interests before those of the rest of the UK, ) and frankly an idiot is a mild rebuke for such a monumental pillock. Of course it was a qualified apology, just the one eyed bit, Scottish idiot still stands. Anyway the mock outrage is a bit rich, given that Blair, Major and Thatcher were routinely attacked in the media, without complaint so what makes the Brown one special?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Listening to Any Questions last night I was treated to the opinion of Liebour PPC Chuka Umunna, who took incredible umbrage at Clarksons remarks and said as a licence-payer He didn't want to see Clarkson on the BBC. Well as a licence-payer I &lt;strong&gt;want&lt;/strong&gt; to see Him on the BBC, and I guess I'll have to put up with Liebour sycophants like Chuka Umunna ( another one labelled as a British Obama, if You will, somewhat missing the point I feel. )&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1787015415718068106-6359563124169915706?l=anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/feeds/6359563124169915706/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1787015415718068106&amp;postID=6359563124169915706' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/6359563124169915706'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/6359563124169915706'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/2009/02/why-is-clarkson-apologising-for-telling.html' title='Why is Clarkson apologising for telling the truth?'/><author><name>King Athelstan</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08796189127188811779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='31' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SdJXBkE6qrI/AAAAAAAAAL4/hfUEj282sCs/S220/coin_athelstan_ob.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1787015415718068106.post-3819902587362844342</id><published>2009-02-03T18:28:00.000Z</published><updated>2009-02-03T19:47:41.160Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='What follows hubris?'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Splenetic diatribe'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Busted Mcflush'/><title type='text'>The Gordon Delusion ( With apologies to Richard Dawkins.)</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SYicI5u3yYI/AAAAAAAAAKE/K9PXikM8AnY/s1600-h/brown070508.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5298656638351690114" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 100px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SYicI5u3yYI/AAAAAAAAAKE/K9PXikM8AnY/s200/brown070508.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Sometimes its just better to accept it, You were never meant to do the job, If You were scared to run against John Smith, God rest His soul, if You didn't think You could beat Tony Blair, You couldn't, then what gives You the right now. You can certainly talk , my God You can talk. You talk and You talk and You say You are right about this and You are right about that, You decry the tories, as if it matters, You tell us how bad it was back then, Yes it was bad for You, it was bad for You because You wanted to be boss and You weren't. It wasn't bad for Me, I was happy, sure the government were awful, but they were competent. This government is awful and incompetent, and We the real people suffer. It would be funny if it wasn't tragic, though I'm sure our European "partners" find it hilarious, watching this country go to the dogs whilst You make a fool of yourself and embarass us all. You were never meant for this and it shows, Youre a joke and not a funny one, Youre a fool, with no ideas and no integrity. The Army , by the way detest You, they have suffered from Your pathetic politically driven parsimony, their families have paid for your short-sighted ineptitude, criminally men have died for want of basic equipment, because of You, yes You! Damn You! Wives without husbands , children without fathers, parents burying their own Children ( at least You know how that feels,) and its Your fault. This is not a nice place to be, people were struggling against the tide of rising prices and rising taxes, and now they are losing their jobs, which were good jobs, some have had these jobs for over 30 years, do the maths, thats both of the recessions You talk about, when You are asked a question You can't answer, thats just about every day now. So what does that tell You? this is worse than those recessions, this is something We havent seen before and it happened on Your watch, You were the one who was there and that is what You will be remembered for, this is Your place in history. Books will be written about You. I can't imagine how that feels. Of course You could save face, do the right thing, go now, if not for You or the country, or the party You have discredited, then for Your family.

Having the Chief Constable told to sling His hook by the new mayor, Barry George, the Damian Green fiasco, A pretty damning jury verdict over Stockwell last week, The conviction of Robert Napper finally bringing a long overdue apology to the man they really never wanted to say sorry to, Colin Stagg.

The pursuit of Colin Stagg was the most disgraceful and monumental Mickey Mouse operation of all time, in spite of the fact that not a single shred of useful evidence existed, millions of pounds were spent on trying to bring Him down whilst Napper continued to rape and murder under the Mets noses. In one particularly farcical sequence an entire cafe in Hyde Park was taken over by undercover plods whilst the unfortunate chap listened to a bizarre "confession" from the strange but attractive woman who kept pestering Him. It was clear that the Keith Pedder and Co had forgotten all about real police work and gathering evidence and were completely in thrall to the wierd and sinister Paul Britton, quite popular with the media back in the 90's.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SU0noaNKwsI/AAAAAAAAAHw/50HGbCAtUts/s1600-h/_38399465_paulbritton150pa.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5281921513158263490" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 150px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 180px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SU0noaNKwsI/AAAAAAAAAHw/50HGbCAtUts/s200/_38399465_paulbritton150pa.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Now its apparent that the case against Stagg, entirely centred on a "psychological profile" drawn up by Britton after repeated offers of a shag failed to get a "confession", (which would have been worthless anyway,) was troubling many senior officers and lawyers. There were plenty of people knew that they were not going to impress any judge with this crap and so it proved. On the big day it took less than an hour to send the media scurrying to the phones, yes it was that long ago, and a frightened and angry Stagg to address the media. It is what followed that was frankly even more disgraceful.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Unhappy at their humiliation, the police colluded with certain elements of the media (Sun, Mirror, Star, Mail, Express, You get the drill,) to start a vicious campaign against Stagg which lasted until this year. It was soon clear to any rational person that the man was innocent and guilty of no worse than be&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SU0n8VSbbiI/AAAAAAAAAH4/acLLGPWsl-Y/s1600-h/MenezesDM_468x614.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5281921855435533858" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 152px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SU0n8VSbbiI/AAAAAAAAAH4/acLLGPWsl-Y/s200/MenezesDM_468x614.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;ing a loner, there was no need for the police to wait 15 years to apologise, many in the media took the trouble to interview Him and realised that He was angry and bitter but harmless and quite pleasant, the Met waited until they no longer had any choice than to say sorry and that is the problem.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Forest Gate, Stephen Lawrence, Stockwell, Stagg, George and Green. A commisioner who needs to be told that He's long since lost public confidence, when the Met screw up they screw up big, the they take a giant shovel and start to dig, denial follows accusation follows cover up, enquiry follows enquiry, good money follows bad. It's time for some brave new thinking, the countrys oldest police force does not learn&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SU0oLbNQRJI/AAAAAAAAAIA/m8R_FZ-JAtk/s1600-h/images.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5281922114722481298" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 125px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 83px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SU0oLbNQRJI/AAAAAAAAAIA/m8R_FZ-JAtk/s200/images.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; from its mistakes.

I can't remember anyone, even "Buff" Hoon, giving such a limp performance since the terminally egregious "Bernie" Flint last appeared on there. Such desperation would be funny if He wasn't representing the government side, He was picked off easily by Gideon and pummelled senseless by the redoutable Julia Neuberger.

What I don't know is what to make of this one, McBroon is certainly an out of control, deluded maniac, but surely He would have known this would blow up in His face if He tried it. Is this somebody trying to humiliate the government? If so they may well have succeeded. If it was an attempt to intimidate or undermine the Tories, it has been a spectacular catastrophe. What does disturb me is the failure of anyone at Liebour to condemn this, forget the desperate state of the party what are You without principles?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh by the way, I noticed Liebour were advertising on My blog this morning what are they trying to achieve by this?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1787015415718068106-6761829274849282998?l=anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/feeds/6761829274849282998/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1787015415718068106&amp;postID=6761829274849282998' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/6761829274849282998'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/6761829274849282998'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/2008/11/blimey-what-next.html' title='Blimey!!!

They were at it again yesterday when a speech by Gideon was a cue for a load of besuited mongs to start running around the government benches gurning , shrieking, making odd faces and gesticulating. Speaker Martin gave up. Just thought I'd mention that people are losing their jobs, houses, savings here, everything they worked for doing real jobs and paying punitive taxes for McDingbat and the dingettes to waste on increasingly quixotic projects. But I may have the answer, the motley collection of public schoolboys and girls/ Oxbridge graduates,( "Toffs", if You will,) that make up the rump of the PLP these days need to reinforce their "working class" credentials, by indulging in a spot of class war with the Tories. I fear they are trying to behave like "us", they are trying to look like "ordinary people". Sad? yes, pathetic? definitely, laughable? well maybe.

In what was largely a good article by His standards, He spoiled it when launched a defence of Sharon "Pie Chart" Shoesmith, against the angry public, who tend to get a little irate when human fetulence tortures and murders innocent children under the noses of their supposed protectors. It was the lack of contrition and the excuses David.

If I didn't know We were in trouble before I certainly do now. It was an absolute nightmare to watch. Brown sat and chanted His mantra blundering through any attempt to answer a question, if the interviewer got a question in He was met with a non-answer. Most of these were references to the 1990s recession, and 15 and 18% interest rates (mentioned at least 5 times.) I can not remember paying such a rate , I would have lost My home if I had I am sure, I can remember tat wih hard work and a little austerity I survived quite easily. I have no such confidence now. Also He lost no opportunity to remind us that problems were global (lost count,) no use to the people whose problems are very local. McBroon was quite extraordinary, He seems to have not the slightest idea what is going on around Him. He speaks of People building up assets during the boom in addition to their houses, that will get them through, and lower interest rates ( forgetting the higher capital on many houses set against plummeting house prices,) than the 15% and 18% interests He clings desperately to repeating them over and over. He hasn't worked out that people have already lost their jobs, are already having their houses reposessed, will not be there to help out with His future tax rises. His bail-out of the banks has failed, the banks have cut and run with the money. All of this was punctuated with wierd and inaprpriate grins. I fear the man is blissfully unaware of the depth of the problems in front of Him. Someone needs to wake up to this, someone needs to tell Him that things are already bad, someone needs to tell Him that people are already in defensive mode, that they are not about to start spending money just because He wants them to.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;We can't continue anymore to pretend that He has the answers. Its time to stand up when He lies, stand up when He bullies, stand up when He makes statements that He can't back up. This concerns everybody, left, right, Labour, Tory, Lib Dem. Its beyond party politics now, its much more serious than that, the future of the country is at stake, do not leave it in this mans hands.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1787015415718068106-4682401945302493618?l=anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/feeds/4682401945302493618/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1787015415718068106&amp;postID=4682401945302493618' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/4682401945302493618'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/4682401945302493618'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/2008/11/lies-lies-lies-lies.html' title='LIES!

His shameful performance at PMQ's was apparently due to His being all ready to give Flashman a good whupping on the economy.( How exactly? The economy is in the toilet and He put it there.) He took an unexpected and well aimed opening shot, and was then exposed as being completely unaware of the public mood. This resulted in a typical display of huffery from Him. What He had wanted to do was get in his idle oft-used dig about black Wednesday (16 years ago now, ) 15% interest rates (complete and utter shameless lie, ) and Camerons role. (Did He even have one? ) Ladies and Gentlemen if this is what the Supreme leader has to offer us then God help us one and all. His brainlessness hasd spoken on Gideons delayed attack on his mismanagement, This is "talking down the economy", (It is down, up to 99 people where I work are about to lose their jobs, how down do You need it to be? ) even more risibly it's  playing politics. Am I missing something here? playing politics? Gideon is the Shadow Chancellor, of course He is playing politics You berk! That is His job. You spent all Your early years in parliament playing politics, shamelessly voting against every government bill for political reasons whether it was party policy or not e.g. Europe. You are the Worst person ever to hold the Office of Prime Minister and the worst Prime Minister, go to Hell, and take that bloody great chip You carry around with You. There are many people who have struggled in life and You are not one of them.

Nonetheless, nothing has quite made the news more than the despicable murder, for thats what it was, of a young child in Haringey. The manner in which this horror unfolded has demonstrated the utter contempt in which the electorate is now held, in particular by the foetid corpse of this so-called government. It seems that We must now be so used to this that We will acceptthe casual report of a grisly crime, in a matter-of-fact manner, the substitution of a charge of allowing the death of a child, instead of murder for the perpetrators, and pathetically inadequate sentences where full life terms would be the only acceptable punishment. However the crowning insult has been the ludicrous self-investigation by Haringey council, famous You will of course remember for overlooking the savage murder of Victoria Clmbie, whereupon lessons were of course learned. The result of this has been a couple of written warnings and a No mea culpa from one Sharon Shoesmith the well remunerated Head of department, who we will be pleased to be informed is certainly not resigning. Fine but does someone not have the power to sack this contemptible bitch? or are sackings reserved for people struggling in real jobs in the real world? Not perhaps for something as trivial as negligently allowing the torture and brutal murder of an innocent child.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Naturally the public have been underestimated again, anger and outrage is the response, a mood clearly caught by David Cameron as He rose for PMQ's yesterday. Enquiring as to what the Supreme Being intended to do about it, He was met with an astonishing array of shrieks, catcalls and howls from the government benches. This You would recall was a question regarding the brutal murder of an innocent child that had sickened the country. Now its not the first time the parliamentary Labour party have behaved like chimpanzees and baboons at the most inappropriate of times. Have this sorry mob been collectively struck down by some psychotic disease of the mind? Have they not a little shame?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But it got worse, unable to fend Cameron off with His pre-written statement, He reverted to type. Unable to give an answer He accused Mr Cameron of playing party politics. Pathetic.  Contemptible. Disgraceful. Some of the faces around Him said it all, He was given the opportunity to withdraw His outrageous slur, but that takes moral fibre and He, as We have known for a long time, has none.  So He has dragged His office ever lower in His arrogant contempt for the people He claims to serve, another day of shame, when will it end?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1787015415718068106-1913907315576376057?l=anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/feeds/1913907315576376057/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1787015415718068106&amp;postID=1913907315576376057' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/1913907315576376057'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/1913907315576376057'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/2008/11/exactly-how-inappropriate-was-that.html' title='Exactly How Inappropriate Was That?'/><author><name>King Athelstan</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08796189127188811779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='31' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SdJXBkE6qrI/AAAAAAAAAL4/hfUEj282sCs/S220/coin_athelstan_ob.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SRv049rT3nI/AAAAAAAAABg/K6ypwPrWwy0/s72-c/turd.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1787015415718068106.post-3323729442065210202</id><published>2008-11-12T18:05:00.000Z</published><updated>2008-11-13T09:24:41.450Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='What follows hubris?'/><title type='text'>The Colour Brown</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SRsdTevUkjI/AAAAAAAAABY/Le7y8FiZG0Y/s1600-h/turd.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5267836409646191154" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 150px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 125px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SRsdTevUkjI/AAAAAAAAABY/Le7y8FiZG0Y/s320/turd.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;The unelected and unwanted Prime Ministers performance at PMQ's today marked a new low in the history of politics in this country.

I don't want to be the one to urinate on the frites here but the dear leader is lagging a little in the polls yet, and given that He couldn't quite manage to&lt;br /&gt;stand for the leadership of the party when there was no real alternative, nor when the alternative was John Smith (RIP,) not much real chance of Him taking the risk of being sent hameward tae think again now is there? Whatevers going on up in Scotland between Liebour and the SNP has little to do with English voters, but there was clearly more to it than who gets to come down to Westminster and pass laws over the English, nah-nah-nah-nah-nah rights then to McBroon and co. Meanwhile there is a small matter of a situation spiralling rapidly out of control with Christmas fast approaching and people losing their jobs or working increasingly short hours, if I was Jocky I'd be visiting with My mates in the middle east or phoning up the president-elect to see how Hes fixed for Christmas, don't want those nouveau homeless chucking their turkey twizzlers at Him.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1787015415718068106-8511928259675009629?l=anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/feeds/8511928259675009629/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1787015415718068106&amp;postID=8511928259675009629' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/8511928259675009629'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/8511928259675009629'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/2008/11/love-in-continues.html' title='The love-in continues.'/><author><name>King Athelstan</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08796189127188811779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='31' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SdJXBkE6qrI/AAAAAAAAAL4/hfUEj282sCs/S220/coin_athelstan_ob.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1787015415718068106.post-6295531592130938268</id><published>2008-11-07T18:29:00.000Z</published><updated>2008-11-07T19:09:59.199Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Cretins'/><title type='text'>Cretins Of The Week.</title><content type='html'>1.

I hardly know where to begin on this one, leaving aside the fact that the character, a nervous catalonian waiter living in fear of his maniacal, pompous little Englander employer, was not the butt of the joke. Forgetting that the character was created by John Cleese and Connie Booth. This twerp clearly didn't realise that Sachs, a German Jew by birth, who fled Berlin in the 30's knows all there is to know about real bigotry and intolerance.

Who seems to have missed the point somewhat in Her tirade against internet blogging suggesting that ordinary people with computers have no business writing beastly stuff about our betters, ie cabinet ministers, who have a difficult job extracting our hard earned cash and micro-managing every aspect of our lives. Of course, far be it from Me to point out anything like what an utter berk She looks every time She goes on Question Time, spouting the usual party crap and trying to score points by chiming in with infantile remarks ,then looking very pleased with herself, but that would be beneath Me. Apparently She is none to chuffed bless Her little mittens. that so much time is being spent on digging up political miscreancy. Well much as I am loath to cause the good lady any more grief, She can get stuffed I feel that what follows may be somewhat unkind to Her and Her chums.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know if the Glenrothes result was a sign that McBroon is making a comeback, or a sign of disillusionment  with the SNP, a case of people casting their votes for a respected local candidate or whether Koko the monkey would have won if He'd turned up in a red rosette chuntering about Keir Hardie and Ramsey MacDonald. To be perfectly honest it doesn't matter because there is no way McBroon is planning on calling an election because He doesn't think He needs to inconvenience us with the nagging element of choice.

The truth of the matter is that the only kind of politics old clunking mouth is really interested in is the kind where he tells you what to do, and you do it. Not for nothing did he become Britains first self appointed Prime Minister, ( the Granita premiership perhaps? ), but as he guffs there is refreshing news this very morning that the country is not as bloody daft as I was beginning to think, as the latest opinion polls suggest a much narrower gap than before, 0-3 points, so no "snap" election then and no ratification for comrade no 1.

Furthermore what would be the point of deporting him to a country he does not know and has no ties to. Chindamo may be an Italian national but he was bred in Britain and he is our problem not Italies. It's not madness, it's common sense, nor is it a matter of human rights.

I had no problem with the late Princess of Wales, but I have trouble with the way people tried to out-grieve each other in such a ridiculous manner. Most of those participating had never met her, neither had I. Yes it was sad that someone died at such a relatively young age as it always is, particularly violent, pointless and wholly avoidable death. (I think you will find that travelling at excess speed in a car driven by someone who has been drinking and not wearing a seat-belt comes under the heading " To Be Avoided".) So why has the death of someone thought of as a force for good, lead to so much bitterness, nastiness and ill feeling? At the time the last people considered were those closest to her, that would be her sons. Acts of violence were reported against those who didn't want to participate in the national blubfest, and the haranguing of the Queen, (whos priority I would have thought was her grandchildren,) was nothing short of disgraceful.&lt;br /&gt;And so it continues, as Egyptian grocers and ridiculous posturing barristers reduce British justice to a farce, some people seem keen to remember by dictating who should or shouldn't turn up at her memorial service, surely a matter for her sons, whether her friends or her own dysfunctional family agree.

Brown bounce is it? Well count me out thank you very much. As once Great Britain is gripped, yet again, with alarming sycophancy combined with tabloid driven mental illness, lets just look at the facts here. What has our new model leader promised us exactly? Any answers to the Iraq fiasco? No! An end to the egregious, cripplingly expensive, potentially monumentally catastrophic and frankly completely useless ID cards? No!! An end to Mrs Balls' ludicrously expensive, half-arsed, namby-pamby, tree-hugger friendly, HIPs, (Hopeless Information Packs)? No!!! ( Can't possibly upset Ballsy.) Oh we'll think about changing the classification of cannabis again as if it makes a difference either way, and we'll get rid of that crap super casino that nobody wanted anyway, Oh thats all the mess of the last 10 years dealt with then, just time for a few pathetic stunts like looking all stand offish when standing next to the Clown from Connecticut, (or Bush the Baboon,) and trundling off on holiday to Weymouth in a fit of (faux) greenery. Just do us a favour Gordy, next year sod off to your usual Cape Cod haunt and leave Dorset for the real people (and Oliver Letwin). It's not as if one more flight is going to make any difference, especially if the plane was going anyway. Still the holidays didn't last since Uncle Gord was heading back to take control of the latest foot and mouth outbreak, doesn't know the front end of a cow from the back but still it gives the impression of control,except that a little more control in the first place would have prevented the fiasco.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Exactly why Braun has become Chancellor of the Reich is an interesting question anyway. Apparently back in 1994 after John Smiths unexpected demise, our exalted former leader Blair the tight trousered,had a bit of trouble believing he was a shoe in for the job of "Prime Minister In Waiting, The Government Are So Poor You Only Have To Show Up And You'll Win." that he invited the dour Shadow Chancellor for din-dins at some dreadful sounding Islington restaurant and struck a deal to get Jock Broon on board in exchange for handing over the leadership after a few years when He'd had enough. Presumably just in case the party got cold feet and decided to hand the hapless tories a lifeline. So He's not wanted in England, He's not wanted in Scotland, from what I can gather the majority of his party can't stand him (but they're such a bunch of spineless, useless lickspittles nobody had the guts to stand up to him,) so we're stuck with him and his insincere smile so that those who failed in their duty can keep their "jobs", telling us what to do, pontificating, patronising and coming up with witless crackpot schemes to make our lives an abject misery. Oh yes, and if you have had your fill of this lunatic asylum and feel the need to spend a little time in a more reasoned gentle environment, There will always be some ludicrous NL clone, probably with a name like Millibland, jabbing their rotten fingers at you for having the temerity to mess up the planet by taking a cheap flight, ( never mind what China, India, and our best buddies the USA are doing).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;A Sorry State Of Affairs will be continued, I also intend to profile as many of the half-wits foisted upon us by Blitler and Broonski as possible in the coming weeks.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1787015415718068106-6994679503836335893?l=anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/feeds/6994679503836335893/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1787015415718068106&amp;postID=6994679503836335893' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/6994679503836335893'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1787015415718068106/posts/default/6994679503836335893'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://anotherpyrrhicvictory.blogspot.com/2007/08/sorry-state-of-affairs.html' title='A Sorry State Of Affairs.'/><author><name>King Athelstan</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08796189127188811779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='31' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UMiGhorQBOs/SdJXBkE6qrI/AAAAAAAAAL4/hfUEj282sCs/S220/coin_athelstan_ob.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
