The British government has abandoned its plans to force airside workers in London City and Manchester airports to sign up for ID cards after workers and unions kicked up a fuss.
No2ID and others are calling it a humiliating climb down but don’t get too excited about the demise of the ID card scheme because it’s [...]

My trusty Netgear ADSL router gave up the ghost yesterday which was a bit inconvenient.
Some investigations pinned it down to a problem with the wireless on the router so I phoned Sky technical support.  I was most surprised to get an answer at 10pm and even more surprised to speak to someone who spoke passable [...]

El Gordo wants to set up a £60bn climate change fund to help poor countries come up with bullshit ways to deal with climate change.
Meanwhile, BBC News is reporting this morning (on the TV but not on the website for some reason) that an extra half a million families could be forced into fuel poverty [...]

Setanta went into administration today owing £3m to the Scottish Premier League and £30m to the English Premier League.
The Scottish Premier League is looking for a new buyer for £125m of broadcasting rights for the next 4 years and the English Premier League is looking to offload the rest of the matches Setanta had already [...]

Wimbledon has started and the BBC are excited about the prospects of British Scottish British Scottish British Scottish Sour Faced Tosser, Andy Murray.
Personally, I couldn’t give a flying fuck which round he crashes out in as long as he cries like a baby.

Amusingly, the above image is the first match in a Google image search [...]

Printed on a box of raisins from Asda:
Ingredients:
Raisins (100%).
Suitable for Vegetarians. 
Do we really a list of ingredients in a box of raisins?  And is there anyone, anywhere on the planet (except Glasgow) who doesn’t realise that fruit is suitable for vegetarians?
As the late, great Douglas Adams said in So Long and Thanks for all the Fish (Hitchikers [...]

Just checking the referrers for Bloggers4UKIP and a strange one came up:
http://bloggers4ukip.blogspot.com/notify-Deloitte_Notify?aHR0cDovL2Jsb2dnZXJzNHVraXAuYmxvZ3Nwb3QuY29tLw== 
The url doesn’t work but Google turns up the url on a lot of Blogger blogs.  The wording of the url would suggest that Blogger are notifying Deloitte whenever some or all blogs are updated.
Anyone know what it’s all about?

So the House of Commons have released details of MPs expenses, self-censored by the MPs themselves.  Did your thieving bastard MP make any inappropriate claims?
Here’s a couple of examples from the two thieving bastard MPs in Telford:
David Wright, thieving bastard MP for Telford, claimed over £7k for a photocopier and £300 for an accountant to [...]

Some people accuse me of being a piss-taker, how can they say such things?

The Lord Chief Justice of England and Wales has ruled that a trial can take place without a jury for the first time.
The trial in question is for an armed robbery at Heathrow Airport which will be heard for a fourth time because of alleged jury tampering.  It was because of the jury tampering that Lord [...]

The English Democrats have been a largely benign force in English politics for a few years but recently they’ve become more aggressive in their self-promotion and in doing so have become toxic to the cause of English nationalism.
Anyone criticising the English Democrats, and particularly Steve Uncles, is generally treated to threats of legal action or [...]

The English Democrats have been spamming Facebook for months now, setting up groups for England and St Georges Day and then re-branding them as English Democrats supporters groups when they get a few members in a desperateyl pathetic attempt to look like they have some support.
Every group I was a member of that they hijacked [...]

Chris Bryant MP, a minister in the Foreign & Commonwealth Office, says that the red cross logo used by the International Red Cross (IRC) is an offensive reminder to muslims of the crusades and should be replaced with the red crystal logo that the IRC have recently adopted.
It is believed that the red cross logo [...]

Engineers from Shropshire Council are closing Harley Bank once again to try and figure out why rocks keep falling onto the road.
I’m not an engineer so I might be looking at this simplistically but I wonder if cutting into the rock face and turning it into a sheer cliff and removing all the trees might [...]

Peter Mandelson (I won’t call him Lord Mandelson, a man without honour doesn’t deserve an honourary title) says that the UK will join the Euro.
Does it remain an important objective for Britain to find itself in the same currency as that single market in which it interacts? Obviously yes. 
Important objective for who Mandy? Not for [...]

Just watching the very excellent new ITV drama, Mumbai Calling.  Tonight’s episode guest stars Richard E. Grant …
Now, for instance, if someone speaks to you like this:
“I don’t like you, I deep fry my breakfast and give cigarettes to my children”
… they are called Scottish people who have no appreciation for the touring theatre and [...]

Thanks to our glorious overlords on the continent and their proxy war with the US through the medium of anti-trust lawsuits against Microsoft, Windows 7 in Europe will ship without Internet Exploder.
Yes, Internet Explorer is a shit browser but there are plenty of websites out there that just don’t work properly with Firefox and other browsers and [...]

When was the last time Caroline Flint told the truth?  Does anyone know?  Does she know?
Flint, whose greatest achievement was to be Secretary of State for the European Empire’s trojan horse in the British government, has just been interviewed on ITV.
They showed the infamous clip of her saying how proud she is to serve in [...]

My thieving bastard MP, David Wright, has been rewarded for taking a £17k bribe from a property developer with a job as a junior minister in DEFRA and DCLG in No Mandate Brown’s new cabinet of all the talentless on the same day that El Gordo announced tough punishments for MPs that have been doing [...]

No Mandate Brown survived a coup attempt at a meeting of the Parliamentary Liebour Party last night.  He has promised to listen to MPs more and take their views into account.
How about listening to the electorate Gordo?  How about taking the electorate’s views into account?
On Thursday the electorate overwhelmingly rejected Liebour in the English local [...]

Peter Mandelson on the Andrew Marr show this morning:
What the public wants to see us doing is the new ministers getting on with their jobs, they want to see us cleaning up the expenses system in Westminster, they want to see us intensifying out focus on the economy and getting out of the recession and [...]

A poll by ConservativeHome shows that 77% of Tories think Tory MPs and PPCs should be able to sign up to the Better Off Out campaign.
David Camoron has banned Tories from publicly opposing the UK’s membership of the European Empire via the Better Off Out campaign. Supporters of Better Off Out are not allowed to [...]

More women get university places, more women get places in top universities, more women than men on professional courses such as medicine and law, women getting better qualifications than men.
Someone remind me why we need a Minister for Women but no Minister for Men.
Petition the PM: create a Minister for Men and balance the gender [...]

I see the Guardian have updated their spell-checker we already know it replaces “English” with “British” but now it replace “Cross of St George” with “Union Flag” as well.

No Mandate Brown’s choice of Sir (soon to be Lord) Alan Sugar for his cabinet of all the talentless is interesting when you read the Telegraph’s brief bio on him …
While Sir Alan spends the majority of his time on The Apprentice, he has not completely severed his ties with the business community, still chairing [...]

I will not waver, I will not wok away 
Don’t you get it? We want you to waver, we want you to walk away.  That’s why we’re not voting for your useless party.  -200 councillors and counting Gordo, take the fucking hint!
Don’t forget, there’s a petition on the PM’s petitions website calling on him to resign. [...]

As the results trickle in, Liebour’s election meltdown is reaching epic proportions.
Only 18 councils out of 34 have declared their results so far and Liebour has failed to win control of a council.  They have, in fact, lost control of 4 councils and have made a net loss of 144 councillors.
Every council has gone to [...]

Well, it’s not been much of a cabinet reshuffle so far … more sort of replacing the people who’ve resigned because El Gordo is such a dick.
The Defence Secretary, John Hutton, has resigned and is yet to be replaced.  Alan Johnson has been made Home Secretary, Yvette Cooper has been made DWP secretary and Alan [...]

The first results are in for yesterday’s local elections in England and as expected Liebour has taking a severe battering.
The Conswervatives have gained 18 councillors and retained 2 councils.  The Lib Dims have gained 1 councillor and one council (Bristol) which was previously under no overall control.  Other parties have gained 4 councils, one of [...]
