How to tell if your country is fucked

Simple. You look around to see if there are state agencies using draconian legislation to spy on and otherwise harras civilians, while introducing ever more authoritarian laws. You check to see if, despite large amounts of job losses, your EU masters are preparing to fuck over the city in an act of pure jealousy. Noticing [...]

As Ranting Stan says..

here;

So why wasn’t James Naughtie sacked from Radio 4’s flagship Today programme for making this comment to Labour’s Ed Balls in the run up to a General Election “If we win the election ….”

The answer is, of course, because the bias shown by the BBC / Nu Labour alliance is institutional; they don’t know they [...]

A second revolution

Becky muses over a second American revolution. I wish her well, some of us are eagerly awaiting something similar over this side of the pond. Although, to be accurate, my version would entail lamp posts and a reduced bill for MP’s pensions.

Greedy stinking pigs

‘I understand why Monica Lewinsky fell for Bill Clinton’

Yes, dear, we all do, but how the hell did Tony fall for you?

Ok, so Flint and Grumpy have both denied that there is going to be a house price ‘crash’ (there isn’t, it’s just a market adjustment), and this appears to make them look pretty stupid, but I can’t see what the big fuss is all about. A 10% drop wouldn’t leave many people with negative equity, [...]

Bird Bansurbation

What an important issue. I hope they now form a vast army of bird feeding inspectors, funded by the taxpayer, who can issue on the spot criminal convictions to monsters who feed birds evil white bread, the bastards.
 
On a serious note, this made me chuckle;

“If you are serious about feeding a bird you really have [...]
