If you read the following on the BBC News website … The American housing ministry has invited tenders for the construction of 100 new homes at American settlements in occupied Iraq.  … people would say that it was wrong and that America had no right to build homes for Americans in Iraq against the will of the [...]

This was in tonight’s Shropshire Star … Pensioners in England missing out On April 1 a new scheme came into force to allow pensioners to have free off-peak travel around England. Previously they were entitled to only off-peak travel within their local authority. Pensioners in Scotland and Wales have been entitled to free public transport [...]

No Mandate Brown has told a meeting of the UN that “no-one thinks” Mugabe won the Zimbabwean presidential elections. He then had the audacity to say “The credibility of the democratic process depends on there being a legitimate government”. What’s that you say?  Legitimate government?  Is that like the leader of the country asking the [...]

Thanks to Arden Forester for the YouTube video of Gerard Batten MEP’s London Mayoral election broadcast.  I missed it earlier as I was attending a UKIP meeting, of all things! Embedded Video Tags: UKIP, London, Election

After posting this yesterday I sent a shitty email to the webmaster of the pm.gov.uk website giving them until 10am today to remove the link to the Liebour website or I would complain to the Civil Service Commissioner and contact the press. They got an extra couple of hours because I was busy but no [...]

The signal on my Orange phone has been dropping off all morning so I checked a couple of other Orange mobiles and they’re all doing the same thing so I phoned Orange. Apparently there’s scheduled work going on with four transmitters nearby resulting in the intermittent coverage.  Which is nice. So why wasn’t I told [...]

Charlie Marks, one of the only left wingers in England that doesn’t need their head looking into (surgically), has some background information on Liebour’s new poverty adviser. Jennifer Moses will be advising Gordon Brown on poverty (combatting it, not causing it – he already knows how to do the latter) as part of his Cabinet of all [...]

I’ve just been emailed this link by a UKIPper and told to read the last two paragraphs. If you can’t be bothered to read it yourself, basically a footnote in the EU not-a-constitution says that we accept the European Union Charter and a footnote in that charter says that the death penalty is abolished “except [...]

Erm, this isn’t what I pay my taxes for … The excellent PJC Journal has spotted a link on the 10 Downing Street website to the Liebour Party’s website.  Not only that but it’s the local election campaign section of their website. This is against the Civil Service Code, it is against electoral law and it [...]

Researchers at Cardiff University reckon they can “cure” osteoarthritis using stem cells. I have quite bad osteoarthritis in both my knees.  On my left knee, parts of the joint have no cartilage at all and the rest is poor quality, rough cartilage.  On my right knee, it’s poor quality, rough cartilage.  They both make some [...]

Tinpot dictator, Robert Mugabe, has called No Mandate Brown “a tiny dot in the world” after Gordo criticised him for holding back results of the Zimbabwean elections. The Goblin King criticised Mugabe and said “the eyes of the world are on Zimbabwe”.  As the unelected leader of the former colonial power in Zimbabwe, the irony [...]

Nothing to do with conspiracy theories this, the ginger one has found this rather strange website that plots your website as a graph.  Looks more like a dodgy astrology chart. Technorati Tags: Blog Graph

Just a reminder about this poll … I’m going to publish the results pretty soon so if you want to vote, do so quickly. Technorati Tags: Poll

The Welsh Assembly has been given the power to pass primary legislation to help people with learning difficulties. AM’s currently draw up new laws but they have to be rubber stamped by the British government before they actually become law.  In Scotland they make their own laws in their own parliament. There are another nine [...]

The island of Sark in the Channel Islands has had a fuedal government for the last 600 years. Sark is the last feudal administration in Europe and is ruled by 40 unelected “feifs” and 12 deputies chosen by the islanders.  The head of the government is the Seigneur and the head of the judiciary is [...]

Watching BBC Breakfast this morning I had to have a little chuckle to myself. Strange, you might think, because BBC Breakfast is a serious programme but I did find occasion to laugh during an interview with the stars of a documentary on nomadic Scandinavian reindeer herders. So what was so funny about the reindeer herders? [...]

Toque submitted a petition to the 10 Downing Street website on eco towns which has been rejected on false grounds. The petition called on the Prime Minister to build eco towns in Scotland instead of England because England is overcrowded and Scotland is sparsely populated and would benefit from the boosted population.  It was rejected [...]

How can these English-hating Celts justify attacking a defenceless animal? Will we see any politicians apologising for the actions of these scum? Don’t hold your breath. Anti-English attack injures horse A horse’s face was slashed and anti-English graffiti daubed on a stables owned by a Cardiff woman who had moved to a village in west [...]

A Commons Commission has concluded that abolishing the lower rate 10p/£ income tax rate has made poor people worse off.  What a leap of fucking logic! The same pattern keeps repeating itself with Liebour.  They abolish lower tax rates and exemptions that everyone is automatically entitled to and replace them with a tax credit that [...]

On Friday it was so warm I went to work without a coat and came home with the sunroof open. Yesterday was reasonably warm and sunny – warm enough to go out with only a t-shirt and a thin fleece. Today … The camera really doesn’t do the snow justice – it’s coming down thick [...]
