The Chief of Staff of the Zimbabwean Army has told soldiers that if they don’t intend voting for Robert Mugabe in the presidential run-off next month, they should hand in their uniform. The Zimbabwean army will be out in force with the police in the run-up to the presidential election run-off next month, as will [...]

The petition I started calling on the British government to commission a cost/benefit analysis on membership of Federal Europe now has 703 signatures. It has until the 24th of July before it closes so a thousand signatures at least would be nice. If you haven’t already signed the petition, please do so now and then [...]

Just as the media have forgotten about the child from Handsworth that had been starved to death by her parents, another equally horrific story has made it into the news. A 6 year old boy and 5 year old girl have been stabbed to death – apparently by their parents – and their 6 month [...]

I’m undecided on Sepp Blatter’s plans to impose quotas on foreign players in football teams. On the plus side, it’s pissed off Federal Europe who have declared it illegal. On the negative side, anything involving Sepp Blatter must be a bad thing. On the plus side, it means English clubs will have to invest in [...]

Looks like the green lobby haven’t managed to bully the Shropshire Star into closing down the climate change debate yet … Every week there seems to be another report by a scientist of some description which is proclaimed as “further evidence” of climate change. There is no doubt that climate change is happening, it’s been [...]

No Mandate Brown is offering to bribe MPs to gain their support for 42 days internment. The bribe to Liebour MPs is the lesser of two bribes being offered – the reduction of the amount of time the Police can use the temporary powers from 60 days to 30 days and to reduce the time [...]

Princess Tony has promised to devote the rest of his life to uniting the world’s religions. What a shame he didn’t decide to devote his life to religion some time around 1998 once he’d started fucking the country up. Bliar reckons that religion can bring peace to the world and is even launching his own [...]

Via Guido, the Guardian has noticed that Liebour has £13m of loans due this year despite being on the verge of bankruptcy. They must be congratulated on their investigative journalism skills – after all, it only took them a week and a half to think of looking at the Electoral Commission website to see how [...]

Wonko’s World regular, KeithS, very kindly sent me a link to this article on the First Post website: Whatever happened to the climate change consensus? A very good question and an equally good article. Excellent in fact. The First Post points out that whilst the IPPC report on climate change (the lead author of which [...]

This petition is pretty popular – over 89,000 people have signed calling on No Mandate Brown to reduce fuel duty. Definitely worth signing even though we all know it will be ignored. The more the listening Prime Minister ignores petitions signed by tens or even hundreds of thousands of people, the bigger his defeat will [...]

I wonder, is the shadow Work & Pensions Secretary a closet reader of Wonko’s World? Or did he perhaps co-incidentally come up with much the same policy that I proposed back in October for making unemployed people work? The only problem with their proposal is that it doesn’t go far enough. Technorati Tags: Conswervatives, Unemployment

Some of the details of what MPs were spending their second home allowances on were certainly an eye-opener. Why No Mandate Brown needs the taxpayer to pay his Sky TV subscription as well as a £187k a year salary I don’t know, presumably he has an explanation as to why his £187k salary isn’t enough to [...]

Hundreds of hauliers are heading to both London and Cardiff to protest at obscene fuel prices. The Wales protest will be travelling from Llanelli to Cardiff and the London protest is going from Kent to London. The British government blames high oil prices for the price of fuel but this is bollocks – about 80% [...]

Yesterday Adobe Acrobat popped up and told me that there was an upgrade available and would I mind ever so much if it went ahead and installed the upgrade as it had been asking me for a few weeks. The upgrade was downloaded and the installer did its business. So did Spybot, asking me if [...]

Number 2 son had his final after-school golf lesson yesterday. Well, when I say he had his final lesson, what I mean is he had half of it. The other half was spent in the doctors’ surgery bleeding from the head wound caused by being hit at full swing with a golf club. The doctor [...]

Last night BBC News did a piece on a Canadian Arctic mission that has released video footage of large sections of ice breaking away which the BBC describes as evidence of climate change. Now let’s be very clear about this – it’s not evidence of climate change, it’s data. Yes, it may indicate that the [...]

Well, the predictable battering of Liebour in Crewe & Nantwich happened as predicted. And quite a battering it was too – a swing of about 14,000 votes. Now, much is being said about the by-election and how the political balance will look come the general election as a result but it’s important to put this [...]

That Tory Toff, Iain Dale, he’s a card. Under the title “UKIP: Going nowhere in Crewe” is this picture: The Land Rover there belongs to Councillor Jill Seymour who took time out from running her business with her husband to take the Land Rover from Telford to Crewe to support the UKIP candidate, Mike Nattrass.
