The final straw for me was him planning to mine meteors.

Could be some interesting field work there Tomtom?

He looks at them and absorbs all the neutroniuminium (c) into his body that he then pisses out as liquid gold.

I tried to create a highly convoluted and terrible pun involving "Trump" and "wind power" but it just got too contrived so I sacked it off.

Hopefully it'll be a breeze to blow away Trumps ideas... they dont seem to have much direction or force.

Not wanting to be swept away with the Trump story..

How the feck is Hunt managing to hang onto his job... SHIRLEY if he was in charge of the dept where there was the leaking - sorry direct communication of info about relevant future govt anouncements on the issue he has to go.
Anyway, looks like the Grauniad has dug up another smoking gun with a Jaunt in 2009 to have a chat with Newscorp folk in New York...

The government are meant to be above back-handers, so it doesn't really matter who was offering it Murdoch/NewsCorp/Phillip Green/some other fat-cat, they shouldn't have got involved.

Did we do Nadine Dorries?


Excellent comment on Darlo's board:

http://darlofc.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=19153&p=238315&hilit=dorries#p238315

Nadine Dorries is a religious nutter, who is trying to shape policy to suit her own intolerant brand of christianity. Her opinion is worthless.
Except when she says something I agree with.

Hopefully I haven't missed this being posted elsewhere.

Apparently we have better cycle safety than the Netherlands...

I can't tell if it is genuine stupidity, or if they are really just so up themselves that the think no-one will notice. I'm not sure which I'd prefer either, stupid politician, evil politician...

The car sales firm has blamed the benefits system for giving too little motivation to take up paid work.


Oh yeah?


How exactly is "the benefits system" to blame for you not paying people a decent living wage, you piss-faced smugulent little four-eyed cunt?

Why is it, when you read stuff like this you always have a silent "hurrah"?

Is it because the arrogant and allegedly powerful can't impose their capricious whim upon others by closing land access - open access being something that should generally be supported as a matter of principle?

Or is it because of the principals involved it's a question of

Yes, well if you hadn't fiddled the books you wouldn't be in this situation now would you?  Convict her in absentia   :read:

Yes. Quite right.

Don't bother with all this "before a jury of your peers" bollocks.

Just convict the bitch and then hold the trial.
