Miserable May

Well, just six weeks or so on from my first whinge here and many of our politicians can now be seen to have had their snouts in the trough for years.

How can somebody claim mortgage expenses for 18 months after they had, presumably, paid off the loan without realising it? Why should Mr Silly Sod the British Taxpayer stump up £2,600 so Shaid Malik can have a giant TV and home cinema system or McKay and McBride make twin claims? Hazel Drears claiming on three different properties in one year and trying to dodge CGT? 'Flipping', moat cleaning, private security, doing up your house on the taxpayer! It truly is mind-boggling..

I suspect that British pigs are feeling pretty fed up at the company we are accusing them of keeping..

Perhaps every MP should face a reselection meeting before the next (and very overdue..) general election..

And then there's the Labour peers on the take? The House of Lords that ZANU Labour is so keen to reform!

Rant over - almost..

I look forward (with a wry smile..) to the annual cringefest that is the Eurovision Song Contest, taking place this weekend in Moscow because the USSR hasn't really gone away.

I shall miss the cynical old Irishman - had the world-weary cynicism becme part of the act? - and am resigned to listening to that tedious little Irish prat who is probably the most irritating twerp on the telly..

Ah well..

BBC Reply re Emily (The Blessed) Maitlis: Sorry, not sorry!

Re the recent Newsnight/ Saint Emily bias story, BBC clearly #SorryNotSorry Definitely time to end the grossly unfair licence tax! "Thanks for registering a complaint. We would like to make absolutely clear that Emily Maitlis was not ‘removed’ or ‘suspended’ from the programme on 27 May, despite much speculation to the contrary. She herself has tweeted that she ‘asked for the night off’.  The BBC must uphold the highest standards of due impartiality in its news output. We reviewed the entirety of Newsnight on Tuesday May 26th, including the opening section, and while we believe the programme contained fair, reasonable and rigorous journalism, we feel that we should have done more to make clear the introduction was a summary of the questions we would examine, with all the accompanying evidence, in the rest of the programme. As it was, we believe the introduction we broadcast did not meet our standards of due impartiality. Our staff have been reminded of the guidelines....

The 48-hour Twitter walkout..

Whilst making the most of forty-eight Twitter-free hours - actually, I (temporarily) deactivated my account on Sunday evening - I’ve realised there’s no outlet for intemperate rants about the endless succession of bloody irritating, if not infuriating, stories in the news, not least courtesy of the official state broadcaster, the (#DefundThe..) BBC. So, methinks, let’s update the blog! Delighted to see that ‘Sir’ – I do hope that boat has sailed! – Lewis Hamilton has decided to add being an ‘anti-vaxxer conspiracy theorist’ to his portfolio of achievements, alongside race-baiting supporter of the anarcho-Marxist BLM organization. He may have deleted the message saying he hadn’t read the material, so he’s either a dolt or simply got caught being a pillock! And, regards ‘taking it up the ‘knee’’, our Lewis’ll be making damn sure that the half dozen F1 drivers who ARE standing up against compulsory breast-beating and the wearing of hair-shirts get as much negative exposure as he ...

Grumpy ramblings over the 'migrant' issue..

Why, oh why does the left seem so desperate to see North-Western Europe overrun by migrants from Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, North Africa and the Horn of Africa and points South and East? By most measures and certainly in comparison to the regions whence the migrant streams originate, North-Western Europe is wealthy, prosperous, safe, socially, educationally, technologically and industrially advanced. It offers a fabulously high standard of living, with free healthcare, free schooling and damn near full employment. Minorities enjoy rights across Europe that they would not even dream of in most of the countries of origin of the migrants arriving today. Equality of gender, sexuality and race and freedoms of expression, assembly and religion are well established. The rule of law works pretty well. In contrast, the regions from where hundreds of thousands are setting off on often expensive and perilous journeys towards this perceived utopia are under-developed socially, industrially and ...
