As a rule, I don't pass along these "add your name" lists that appear in emails.
This one is important.
It has been circulating for months and has been sent to over 20 million people.
We don't want to lose any names on the list so just hit forward and send it on.
Please keep it going!
To show your support for Gordon Brown please go to the end of the list and add your name.
1. Sarah Brown

This blog is mine, my thoughts, my moods my musings. Comments are welcome and un-moderated however vile comments, verbal abuse of others, will be removed.

Spineless Bottler

You might have a fit looking Mrs and a good few quid in the bank but you are a bottler.
Looking forward to the blue spinning machine coming up with a story to get over this !!!!
See Here
The BBC have just been told that David Cameron will NOT be going head-to-head with Jeremy Paxman on Monday.
Why the sudden unburdening?

I am very confused here today.
2 separate reports in 2 separate MSM streams on the same sort of subject.
Why is the PM now admitting mistakes.
See here
And see here
For years this man has refused point blank to admit the sun comes up in the morning.............and now "oh dear me.........what a silly boy I am".
Is this an election ploy?
Is this the oh sorry Iam human?
Give me another go plleeeeeaaaaasssssseeeeee?
The thing I struggle with is we have been treated like we are stupid, and we know where the problem lies so why all of a sudden admit it> I mean I would rather he had the conviction to maintain his position rather than fanny about with wishy washy stances..............grow some balls!!

Please Help Me Here ?

Much has been written by others about the 3 Little Pigs above and the fact they are now getting Legal Aid to assist in their defence.
But please please please can someone out there help me understand how???
I mean earnings against expense, rules for claiming etc. Its bad enough them trying to get parliamentary privilege.
I am struggling to maintain my relaxed persona here on this subject.
This is an insult beyond comprehension...............so please and legal readers out there can you shed some light on this???

Oh Vince.........what was that you said?

Businessmen on inflated salaries lecturing the rest of Britain on how to run the country are "utterly nauseating" and "being used" by the Conservative party, the Liberal Democrat Treasury spokesman, Vince Cable, says. Source
This is in response to the huge support from the business community to the Tories fight against the 1% rise in NI and the signatures on the letter of support.
And for the record that will be the same Vince Cable that last week was forced to apologise to the house for............well put it bluntly.......being a fucking liar.
So not much cred in what you say these days Vince so I suppose a few inflammatory statements will get you back in the papers and some much needed publicity.
And also does a group of individuals who employ in excess of a million people know less than you................. a politician. Most politicians have failed in there chosen career in the first instance..............hhhmmmmmm makes you think eh!
So come on Vince give us you fabled wisdom here......and I will us M&S as an example.
A 1% rise in NI will cost that company £11 Million. And that is before they even open a door and sell a bloody thing. Economic recover will be lead by the private sector not the public sector............so how does that add up to helping economic growth.
"utterly nauseating" You are right..............but not these businessmen I am afraid.
Despite the fact I have no time for Mrs Dale..........she does have a point
When is an FOI request.........Not an FOI request
When its linked to MP's Expenses of course.
Now the rules on FOI requests are fairly specific however once you announce a General election you can pretty much re-write the rule book.
This morning see here we discover that yesterday details of MPs’ unpaid bar and restaurant bills will be withheld until after the election.
REALLY...........you mean they want more of their theft kept secret.
Hundreds of MPs owe thousands of pounds for food and drink consumed in bars and restaurants around the Palace of Westminster.
Following a request under the Freedom of Information Act last September, the parliamentary authorities have been obliged for some time to release details of the unpaid bills.
However, they have now said that the information will not be released before the Commons reconvenes after the May 6 election.
That will leave voters in the dark about the outstanding debts of MPs standing for re-election, while retiring MPs will leave without facing public scrutiny of their bills
So in what has been described as the worst parliament in history............or "the rotten parliament" we see a further abuse of the system and a further attempt to hide the truth from the voters.
See further info here.
So many will say it a bar bill not a abuse of a system. Well dear readers it is an abuse. If you read the above link you will see the bar is subsidised by you and me. Our tax payers cash..............so it is an abuse.
And should you be the voter who puts back a thief into Westminster because this info was kept out of the public domain..................bet you feel proud don't you !!!

Yahoo
So its been called !!
May 6th for the big General Election.
So a month of being able to rip a new arse to which ever political figure falls into my cross hairs.
I have had a shitty weekend work wise.
Not much of a holiday so to speak..............so coffee is on and news wires being watched
Let the games begin.
Just 1 extra point here.
Voting is a right in our country, (I am not going on right now about parties rights/wrongs). However the act of the vote is part of our constitution.
And some may agree/disagree with me .......... but if you do not exercise that vote......if you are 1 of the "nobody worth voting for types" then sadly and not wanting to piss you off ...........Shut The Fuck Up.
You have that democratic voice.......if you are no prepared to use it......don't give an opinion.
Remember at the last General election Labour was returned to power by approx 22% of the voting population of the UK.
Just saying !

Politically correct Admiral Lord Nelson at the Battle of Trafalgar

Nelson: "Order the signal, Hardy."
Hardy: "Aye, aye sir."
Nelson: "Hold on, that's not what I dictated to Flags. What's the meaning of this?"
Hardy: "Sorry sir?"
Nelson (reading aloud): "' England expects every person to do his or her duty, regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, religious persuasion or disability.' - What gobbledegook is this?"
Hardy: "Admiralty policy, I'm afraid, sir. We're an equal opportunities employer now. We had the devil's own job getting ' England ' past the censors, lest it be considered racist."
Nelson: "Gadzooks, Hardy. Hand me my pipe and tobacco."
Hardy: "Sorry sir. All naval vessels have now been designated smoke-free working environments."
Nelson: "In that case, break open the rum ration. Let us splice the mainbrace to steel the men before battle."
Hardy: "The rum ration has been abolished, Admiral. Its part of the Government's policy on binge drinking."
Nelson: "Good heavens, Hardy. I suppose we'd better get on with it ........... full speed ahead."
Hardy: "I think you'll find that there's a 4 knot speed limit in this stretch of water."
Nelson: "Damn it man! We are on the eve of the greatest sea battle in history. We must advance with all dispatch. Report from the crow's
nest please."
Hardy: "That won't be possible, sir."
Nelson: "What?"
Hardy: "Health and Safety have closed the crow's nest, sir. No harness; and they said that rope ladders don't meet regulations. They
won't let anyone up there until a proper scaffolding can be erected."
Nelson: "Then get me the ship's carpenter without delay, Hardy."
Hardy: "He's busy knocking up a wheelchair access to the foredeck Admiral."
Nelson: "Wheelchair access? I've never heard anything so absurd."
Hardy: "Health and safety again, sir. We have to provide a barrier-free environment for the differently abled."
Nelson: "Differently abled? I've only one arm and one eye and I refuse even to hear mention of the word. I didn't rise to the rank of admiral
by playing the disability card."
Hardy: "Actually, sir, you did. The Royal Navy is under represented in the areas of visual impairment and limb deficiency."
Nelson: "Whatever next? Give me full sail. The salt spray beckons."
Hardy: "A couple of problems there too, sir. Health and safety won't let the crew up the rigging without hard hats. And they don't want
anyone breathing in too much salt - haven't you seen the adverts?"
Nelson: "I've never heard such infamy. Break out the cannon and tell the men to stand by to engage the enemy."
Hardy: "The men are a bit worried about shooting at anyone, Admiral."
Nelson: "What? This is mutiny!"
Hardy: "It's not that, sir. It's just that they're afraid of being charged with murder if they actually kill anyone. There's a couple of legal-aid lawyers on board, watching everyone like hawks."
Nelson: "Then how are we to sink the Frenchies and the Spanish?"
Hardy: "Actually, sir, we're not."
Nelson: "We're not?"
Hardy: "No, sir. The French and the Spanish are our European partners now. According to the Common Fisheries Policy, we shouldn't even be in
this stretch of water. We could get hit with a claim for compensation."
Nelson: "But you must hate a Frenchman as you hate the devil."
Hardy: "I wouldn't let the ship's diversity co-ordinator hear you saying that sir. You'll be up on disciplinary report."
Nelson: "You must consider every man an enemy, who speaks ill of your King."
Hardy: "Not any more, sir. We must be inclusive in this multicultural age. Now put on your Kevlar vest; it's the rules. It could save your life"
Nelson: "Don't tell me - health and safety. Whatever happened to rum, sodomy and the lash?"
Hardy: As I explained, sir, rum is off the menu! And there's a ban on corporal punishment."
