New Labour Spin Twins: currently out-lying each other Hardly surprising, I know, but since they have not been entirely well-received by his own party it was necessary for Mandelson to spin his memoirs for all he was worth upon their publication today in the face of what I predict will be pretty poor sales – [...]

Brown Implodes Mandelson’s Campaign
Posted in Brown, cameron, campaign, campaigning, conservatives, general election, Labour, lies, mandelson, smears, spin on 05/05/2010 | Leave a Comment »
Been reading a few hand-wringing blogposts around and about reinforcing the idea that after that truly appalling rant at the weird, “Citizen UK” rally, Brown had somehow found his voice at the eleventh hour. Of course, it’s in the nature of the media that these things become self-reinforcing narratives leading, usually at breakneck speed, to [...]
"A Future Vague For All"

I nearly missed this funny Marten Morland cartoon summary of Labour’s and Brown’s whole campaign strategy from the Sunday Times. Never a truer word, as they say. At least the Tories are committed to some genuine policies, which will be life-changing (if not life-saving) to thousands of people as they right Labour’s wrongs.Brown plans to [...]
Lumley Savages Another Labour Pit Bull

Joanna Lumley, so the Telegraph, among other sources, is reporting, has forced the maniac Labourist smear-monkey who durst sully her angelic countenance with his slimeball innuendoes, Kevan Jones, to “apologise unreservedly” for his crimes. Reading her withering statement, it never ceases to amaze me that these Labourist twits keep on trying to have a go [...]
"Gordon Brown Is A Dangerous Weirdo"

…Being the conclusion of Minette Marrin’s superb analysis in her eponymous Sunday Times column. To me, one of the best quotes, among many others, is this: The kind of bullying of which Brown is suspected is entirely different. It is the uncontrolled raging of a desperate man, driven in his frustration and misery to lash [...]
Caption Competition: The Piers and Gord Edition

They seem to think the sensitive-side relaunch went really well. It didn’t. So speculation about what these two idiots actually said to each other here is most welcome. Hat tip – and link to a superb, far more incisive, blog post on this matter: John Ward.

James Delingpole, citing Bishop Hill, is as gobsmacked as the latter by a professional analysis of the Fourth IPCC Assessment Report (you know, the one with all the “Gates” in it) by a scientist named Andrew Lacis, a colleague of arch warmist James Hansen at GISS, and someone who in no way whatsoever could be [...]
How Do You Suspend A Suspended MP?

David Blackburn has just put an excellent question in his Speccy blog, concerning the case of Elliot Morley, one of three Labourist MPs (so far) now charged with stealing from the British taxpayer. Sky’s Jon Craig’s asks one of those questions you wished you had posed: wasn’t Elliot Morley suspended already? Yes, he was, on [...]
Europe: Our "Domestic" Market
Posted in banks, Brown, economy, europe, Labour, lies, mandelson, spin on 07/02/2010 | 7 Comments »
Our ‘domestic’ market Fanatical europhile Pete “Teflon” Mandelson has admitted Europe is our ‘domestic’ market. During what can only be regarded as an extraordinarily rude and thinly-veiled attack on the USA’s plans for regulating its own banking system, he revealed this peculiar – some might say unique – weltanschauung, presumably, by extension, believing that the [...]
Blix On Blair

Hans Blix, the weapons inspector chief humiliated by Blair and Bush in the run up to the 2003 invasion of Iraq, gives his view (largely implicitly) on Blair’s pretty chilling Chilcot grilling, during which he heavily hinted that not-only would he do it again in Iraq, with or without the WMD lies, but that he [...]
