Quote of the Day

Environment Secretary Mr Miliband, who ran Mr Blair's No 10 policy unit from 1997 to 2001, said: "We can have an energising, refreshing transition and that's why what I would say: the transition to Gordon Brown - just to underline - the transition to Gordon Brown, the smooth transition to Gordon Brown, the energising, refreshing transition to Gordon Brown - not to anyone else - is a transition that is about ideas and values more than about dates." - source

Arslikan of the highest

Arslikan of the highest order there. "transition to" for a transitory Premiership for GB before Milliband makes a move.

Why did Brown have to sneak

Why did Brown have to sneak out the tradesman's entrance yesterday? Like someone just been given their marching orders.
Also you note the absence of the fat cocktail sausage yesterday. The supposed peace-maker between the two.
Me thinks Brown blinked yesterday, and will not be sending any Christmas cards from Downing Street this year, either number!

Why Bliar must go now, See

Why Bliar must go now,

See the Information clearing house articles on how the US and Israel are planning the start of a third world war for us:

Israeli-US Strategy: Lebanon and Iran

The Next Phase of the Middle East War

Frankly I don't really care if Bliar being pushed subjects us to another Conservative (apologies for such language) government as long as it gets rid of the insane Christian supremacist currently occupying No 10.

When he does go, is this

When he does go, is this site going to have to rebrand itself?

I'm looking forward to seeing what happens to the St. Albion Parish newsletter, too... :-)

Don't you just love David

Don't you just love David Miliband? What would I do without good people like him, the lovely Hazel Blears, the delicious Ruth Kelly and of course the next Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, John Prescott, who will take over No 10 tomorrow afternoon just after I resign. By the way, Brown is shite and a Scottish shite at that.

This is just getting

This is just getting embarassing.

Oh the shame!

Now who would verify him ? The Archangel Gabriel ?

------------

You will know when Tony is on his way out when you hear his nails scraping down the face of the cliff..... except .... if he relies upon Postwar PM's history of medical problems as a reason for a swift exit.

In which case the shortening odds for the last 4 weeks for another bloody Scotsman Mr Reid, aided admirably by the King of Wales and Northern Ireland the suntanned Peter Hain is the most likely pairing for continuing the highly successful Blairite policies.

Can we have less of this

Can we have less of this anti-Scottish sniping, please? Keep in mind that some the most vociferous anti-Blair rants do come from up north (ahem). If I was to refer to Denis Skinner as a Bolsover Shite, it wouldnt go down too well, would it, therefore sneering at people on the basis of where they come from is, well, racist and bigotted. Let's keep our bitter, rancourous spleen focussed on the issues at hand.

Thankee kindly!

Actually, it's worth

Actually, it's worth anyone's while reading MD in the current Private Eye (the medical column) which contrasts the different ways the NHS is organised in Wales and Scotland (and NI for that matter). It's only really England that's gone barking right-wing neo-liberal crazy, the Scottish Executive (which is LD/Lab) is a lot redder than Tony and co. This extends to transport and education, too.

Hence rather than us Southerners shunning Scots, it's probably worthwhile examining what they're doing right up there. You can see why they don't want Tony Blair dragging them down into the mire next May. Mind you, a Scottish someone called Anne Moffat was talking absolute garbage about 'huge majorities' and the 'best PM ever' on the World at One today. What's her record like?

Less of the anti-Scottish

Less of the anti-Scottish sniping? Over recent years it seems almost compulsory for the Scots and Welsh to slag off the English even though you all still beneift hugely from the Union (so much more than we English do). If you can't take it you shouldn't dish it out.

Also, I'll just point out a largely forgotten fact. The present Labour government was imposed on us by the Scots and the Welsh who have their own government and assembly. The Conservatives WON in England last time round, but because Labour have spent the last few years gerrymandering and changing the constituencies the Conservatives can only win a UK General Election with a 10% + lead on the day!

What happened to "democracy" ? Mugabe would be proud of a record like that.

Gissa job.

Gissa job.

CUBE Rules. Wittering on

CUBE Rules. Wittering on about BrownBlair blabla... and all the time the propaganda machine for the next WAR is happening all around you all .

1 pundits and newsbroadcasters TELL us Iran is building a nuke.

2 pundits and newscasters TELL us Iran intends to erase Israel from the face of the earth.

I saw the first sign of this on latenite TV3 frenchTV "NEWS" last October.

Last thursday morning at about 0847, John Humphries on the Today prog repeated number 2, adding "ALLEGEDLY";

With all the resources of the BBC at his disposal, including I'm sure many competent translators of Farsi to English, I HAVE NOT THE SLIGHTEST DOUBT that he could have checked this out.

Maybe the man is stoopid and incompetent, a propagandist repeating rubbish, so WHY did he seem to attempt to cover to cover himself by adding "allegedly" ?

One small word.

There is serious doubt about the translation of what Ahmedinejihad ACTUALLY said. Right around the world, this "statement" of intent is being used , repetitively scores of times every day in the Media to further demonise the already unpleasant Iranian Government .

I recommend anyone (if anyone !) reading this to check it out.

Compared to what may be the NEXT WAR, parochial discussion of who will replace the loathed Blair, and when, are minor issues.
