Virgin Atlantic employees have threatened to go on strike because they don’t like the pay deal they’ve been offered. Virgin have offered a 8.3% pay rise over 2 years with 4.3% in the first year.  This is well above the pay rise offered to nurses and police and well above inflation. Richard Branson has written to [...]

The Russian government has banned a TV ad that denied the existence of Santa Claus who, in Russia is known as Father Frost. The Federal anti-Monopoly Service said that the advert broke rules on undermining teachers and parents by saying that Santa doesn’t exist and couldn’t be shown on TV. Quite bizarre! Technorati Tags: Santa, Russia, [...]

Benezir Bhutto has been injured by a suicide bomber who targetted her entourage as she left a rally near Islamabad. She is said to be in a serious condition in hospital. It was bound to happen at some point because she has so many enemies – both in the jihadi’s that live in the north [...]

A week ago, No Mandate Brown said that all the sleaze, corruption and gneral criminality of Liebour would all be forgotten soon.

Peter Watt was the General Secretary of the Liebour Party and was [...]

I’d like to wish my readers a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

There hasn’t been a Witanagemot Blog Roundup for a long time so, in the final days of 2007, here are a selection of posts worthy of note from Witan bloggers in December … Councillor Tony Sharp of the Waendel Journal questions the motives of the Torygraph’s “Call Yourself British” campaign.  “As a supporter of the [...]

The Republic of Ireland will hold a referendum on the EU not-a-constitution thanks to the provisions of their constitution. Denmark was expected to hold a referendum when it was reported that a majority of Danish MPs wanted one but this appears to have fallen by the wayside. Enter Alex Salmond: When the constitutional treaty was [...]

… is good for the gander. The British government has capped public sector payrises in England to 2% but the Daily Mail reports that MPs are now asking for a 10% pay increase over the next 3 years. British MPs are paid £60,675 per year as a basic wage and then claim expenses for anything and everything.  [...]

No Mandate Brown was pretty shit as far as Chancellor’s go but even he wasn’t as bad as Mugabe. Robert Mugabe turned Zimbabwe from a prosperous, self-sufficient, largely democratic African nation into a bankrupt, decimated police state. Official inflation is currently over 8,000% but independent experts reckon it’s more like 11,000%.  The Zimbabwean Dollar has been [...]

The Illiberal Dipshits have appointed Lembit Öpik, MP for Montgomery, to their shadow cabinet with responsibility for housing. Housing is devolved to the Welsh Assembly in Mr Öpik’s own constituency so his constituents were unable to give him a mandate on English housing.  I’ve just sent the following email to his constituency office: Dear Mr [...]

Tony Bliar converted to Catholicism on Friday in a ceremony in Westminster. Hardly a surprise – his hideous wife is a member of Opus Dei and he has been attending catholic mass for years both with and without his catholic family. The question is, why are the media whores so interested?  Bliar has always been [...]

No Mandate Brown thinks that the English are a nation of goldfish who will forget the recent scandals – fraud, sleaze, incompetence, treason – that have marked his first few months in power. He actually had the gall to say “I think people know that when a problem arises we will deal with it” – [...]

Today, Her Majesty overtook the record set by Queen Victoria to become the oldest English monarch and the latest addition to the Windsor dynasty has left hospital. The Countess of Wessex gave birth to her second child, a boy, on Monday who is now 8th in line to the throne. Looking good for 81 years of age … [...]

The Independence and Democracy Group in the European Parliament has started an EU-wide petition on a referendum on the EU not-a-constitution. Signatures from the UK are pitifully low which certainly doesn’t reflect public opinion so do your bit and sign the petition and show those gutless, eurofederalist bastards that we don’t want their constitution. There’s [...]

Federal Europe has appointed an Ambassador to Africa even though it doesn’t have a mandate to do so until January 2009. The EU Diplomatic Corps is part of the EU not-a-constitution which has yet to be ratified by any member state and with a bit of luck it will never be ratified here, slowing down [...]

I just sent the following email to Nick Clegg after reading that he has already dismissed a suggestion that we should have an English Parliament by saying that he will devolve power to “regions and communities” rather than the our country as most people want … Dear Nick, Could you please tell me what plans the [...]
