No mandate reforms from no mandate PM

No Mandate Brown has set out his no-mandate “reform” programme (there’s that fucking word again - reform) to try and recover from the devastating trouncing Liebour had in the last by-election and nosediving support from traditional Liebour voters.
Let’s take a look at what batshit ideas he’s pulled out of his arse this time. I’ll […]

Brown plans more regionalisation in England

According to the Times, Gordon Brown is planning to create a network of London-type mayors in the “English regions” to combat Englishness and promote the Britishness agenda he has become obsessed since being parachuted into the post of Prime Minister without a mandate.
England has always been considered expendable by the Labour Party, hence their willingness to embrace […]

No, no, no

No Mandate Brown is appealing to “middle England” to support more devolution for Scotland and support the union.
The One Eyed Wonder of Wankistan says that the UK is “the world’s most successful multi-national state” but that the union isn’t “a contract of convenience that can be renegotiated”. Multi-national or multi-regional? Remember, as far […]

Nuclear Family

No Mandate Brown will announce today that the British government intends to build nuclear power stations in England.
He won’t be making the same announcement about Scotland, of course, because it’s a devolved matter and the Scottish Parliament has decided that Gordon Brown’s constituents and their fellow countrymen won’t be getting nuclear power stations.
Now, I agree with […]

Brown interfering in English NHS again

No Mandate Brown has announced that the (English) NHS will start offering health screening for heart disease, strokes and kidney disease as well as increasing the screening for some types of cancer.
Health screening is good but it’s still wrong the Gordon Brown is interfering in the English NHS.  He has no say over the NHS […]

NHS Constitution

Read this then read the letter I just sent to my turncoat Liebour MP.
Dear David,
Your Prime Minister has somehow, against all the odds, managed to make me even more annoyed today than he has since he was appointed as your leader.
I was pretty incensed when he announced that his priorities as Prime Minister would be the […]

Lib Dums appoint Welsh MP to English housing portfolio

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 Öpik,
I note […]

A nation of Goldfish?

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” - it’s […]

EDM266: CONDUCT OF THE PRIME MINISTER AND THE SCOTTISH CLAIM OF RIGHT

Worm your way out of this Gordon …
That this House recognises that the Prime Minister is a signatory to the Scottish Claim of Right in which he declared and pledged that in all his actions and deliberations the interests of the Scottish people `shall be paramount’; believes that by declaring that the interests of the […]

Queen’s Speech

The Queen was put through the indignity of having to read the One Eyed Wonder of Wankistan first (and hopefully last) Queen’s Speech.
The BBC, to my utter amazement, have actually identified which bills are only applicable in England although there is no explanation of why this is so utterly reprehensible, undemocratic and morally wrong.
First up […]

Leave our schools alone Gordo

The One Eyed Wonder of Wankistan has proclaimed that all failing schools in England will get a visit from a specialist management team to help turn them round.  If that doesn’t work then a change of “management” will be instigated and if that doesn’t work then the school will be shut down.
It was pointed out […]

Like Flies Round Shit

Liebour Ministers are desperately trying to encourage Liebour Party members to rally round the One Eyed Wonder of Wankistan after the latest opinion poll put the Conswervatives seven points ahead of Liebour.
Like flies round shit, Liebour ministers have spontaneously told the media how great their Prime Minister is.  Jim Murphy, Minister for Europe, even went […]

Petition: Hold a general election in 2007 - Update

The 10 Downing Street petition to hold a general election in 2007 is gathering pace.
The One Eyed Wonder of Wankistan laughed off the petition the other day because it only had 26 signatures.  Overnight it grew to 3,400 signatures and by today over 10,000 people have signed it.
What is nice to see, though, are the number […]

Thanks for nothing Darling

Alistair Darling, the latest Scottish Chancellor of the Exchequer, has announced his first pre-budget review.
In his mini-budget he has decided to double the inheritence tax thresholds for couples, small comfort for those who don’t fall into that bracket - widows, young children who have just lost their parents, etc.
A tax allowance for private equity firms […]

No Election

No Mandate Brown, the One Eyed Wonder of Wankistan, has decided not to call an election after all.
After seeing the latest batch of opinion polls showing that support for the Conswervatives was increasing whilst support for Liebour was decreasing, he has decided that he “wants a mandate on policy, not on promises”.  Or votes for […]

What will Brown be doing for Scotland?

This morning I asked “What will Brown be doing to England“?  Tonight I’m asking, “What will Brown be doing to Scotland”?
What was in Britishness Brown’s speech today?
Well, he’s promised to stand up for schools* and hospitals* and British values*.  He also wants to build 10 new “eco-towns”*.
He wants to increase stop and search powers for […]

What will Brown be doing to England?

The BBC tells us what No Mandate Brown is planning to announce in his Liebour Party Conference speech.
He’s going to be backing greater use of stop and search by the Police.  Doesn’t apply in Scotland.
He’s going to cut cancer waiting lists so you can have longer to accept the fact that because you’re English you […]

SNP motion to congratulate England

Britishness Brown, the non-mandate British Prime Minister, was too busy to phone Steve McLaren to congratulate him on England’s 3-0 victory over Russia last week but managed to find the time to phone Alex McLeish, the Scottish manager, to congratulate him on their defeat of France on the same night.
Even though No Mandate Brown professes to be British […]

NHS Review

Lord Darzi, appointed by No Mandate Brown to “reform” the English NHS, is aiming to get GP’s to see their patients out of hours.
GP’s used to run out-of-hours surgeries but the British government gave them new contracts that allowed them to pass their obligations on to NHS Direct with a hefty pay rise to keep them voting […]

How Ironic

The Tibetan government in exile is visiting England on an official fact-finding visit to the British Parliament.
The Tibetan government in exile has its base in Dharamsala in India and are looking for tips on how to form policy and introduce laws but, says the BBC, “this is tricky when you are not actually in the […]

More regionalisation from Brown

No Mandate Brown has shown that he is hell-bent on the destruction of our country and the imposition of regional government whether we want it or not.
Hot on the heels of his appointment of regional ministers to each of the euroregions in England (the West Midlands has been lumbered with Liam Byrne, MP for Hodge […]

Buggering up the English NHS … again

The Financial Times reports that No Mandate Brown left a little present for the English before he left the Treasury - a £2bn cut in funding for the English NHS.
It’s not the fact that he has no mandate on health with it being devolved in his own constituency, it’s not that he kept it quiet […]

Draft Local Transport Bill - Hansard

Not much information in the Hansard on the Draft Local Transport Bill - no dissenters, no cries of “NO MANDATE” from the opposition benches.
However, the Hansard for the bill does start thus:
Draft Local Transport Bill
The Secretary of State for Scotland (Mr. Douglas Alexander):
I am today publishing a draft Local Transport Bill, for public consultation and […]
