I had the misfortune to work on a freelance basis a couple of times for Richard Branson. My conclusion? He’s a greedy, publicity-mad, calculating, self-serving, tight-fisted egomaniac (objectionable enough to make even the Adam Smith Institute into anti-capitalists). So I find this cat-spat between Richard Black and said Mr Branson tiresomely engaging. In the one corner, eco-nut Black is busting a gut to tell us that the Branson publicity wheeze … Continue reading
HI folks – just popping in from the election trail to ask you your thoughts on BBC’s Stephen Nolan. You see, I’m returning the favour because Mr Nolan keeps talking about me on his election programmes. It’s as if he would like to try and damage my Party’s election chances by selective quotes from A Tangled Web but he NEVER quotes from Biased BBC. I think this is such a … Continue reading
Question Time tonight comes from that famous bastion of middle-of-the-road politics…Liverpool. On the panel tonight we have Baron and part time vampire Michael Howard, adulterer, windmill fanatic and expenses fiddler* Chris Huhne, Pantone #1235 (Saffron) coloured bank robber Peter Hain, Alex Wee Eck Salmond and former New Statesman deputy editor Cristina Odone. *As a bit of random trivia, Huhne claimed £85.35 on expenses for having a picture of himself framed and inscribed. … Continue reading
One today’s ‘B’ stories is about all the Gulf Coast fisherman complaining that BP isn’t dealing fairly with them, isn’t paying enough compensation, won’t let them into meetings for a negotiation. Nasty old BP, oil destroys communities, etc. There’s also a round of Spot The Missing Word. The News Channel just let a Louisiana oysterman have a three-minute rant about how evil BP is. Beeboid Emma let him go on … Continue reading

Oh no. After hyping up the great evil of Conservative created inflation all morning….comes the news that it has fallen. BBC Gutted. What to do? Well, can we ever forget how evil the British were in KENYA when putting down insurrection there? Not if the BBC can help it 😉 Shouldn’t David Cameron apologise and pay reparations? Meanwhile, buried away on regional news, we read about the shockingly callous behaviour of … Continue reading

Call me old-fashioned, but to me, a cat-fight between the zealots at Greenpeace and the creepy control freaks at Facebook over whether the latter has or has not done its best to use green energy in its new server centre ain’t news. It’s simply a greenie bar-room brawl over who has the biggest organ (so to speak), and a massive puff for the corporation’s in-house social networking tool. But to … Continue reading
It’s all about who YOU choose to believe – take it on trust, the BBC Trust. First – consider the comments of Recep Erdogan, PrimeMinister of Turkey who stated that democracy was like a bus: “You ride it until youarrive at your destination, then you step off.” What other gems has he delighted us with?
