loving the alien.....

BBC NEWS | UK | Ballot papers found under table:

"Two candidates in Slough were forced to roll a dice to decide the outcome of the election after two recounts failed to split them. The Tory beat the independent."

And the rest of the world thinks we're mad, huh.

F*cking terrible, I hope

Iraq 'shadow' hits Labour's vote:

"The 'shadow' cast by the Iraq war has hit Labour in Welsh and English local elections in a result that could see them plunge into third place."

Funny, I'm sure I remember Tony saying "It won't be about the war, people in britain value local ammenities and local services much more"

Shows what he knows.

[update] Jeez, even David Blunkett is getting in on it:
"David Blunkett said he was "mortified" by the results and blamed the Iraq war for "damaging" the Labour vote."

Well, it looks like the message if finally getting through to them.

a Big Intervention.

Now, this is important. So important I've put my cigarette out, stopped browsing for p0rn and permalinked it.


How old are you? 25? Older? Ok then, let's begin…

Cast your mind back, all the way back to 1997. Strains of “Things can only get better” booming out over jubilant crowds. A balmy night in May when we saw a charming, beaming young man take over the reins of this country. He was energetic, determined and above all a man of the people. It saw the end of many, many years of Tory rule. The people had spoken and they had said “We want Tony”.

Now, back to the present. Still with us? Good.

Tony Blair no longer has the trust of the people. He no longer has the trust of the party. He has become an electoral liability, hence why none of the recent Labour campaign material had his image on the front, compared to 4 years ago when his Cheshire cat grin was all over them

Now, this isn’t about Labour (at least, not yet), as I still think they have a chance to turn this country around and do the best for the people (who, after all, they work for).

It is however about Tony Blair. I don’t know what happened, but about 3 or 4 years into his Prime Ministership he went off the rails. He forgot that his responsibilities lie with the people of this country. He became a puppet of America. He has since carried out some of the most terrible political decisions in recent history. There are many, many reasons he must go.

This is the man who said:
"We should have the confidence to open up the debate, be honest about the challenges, lay out the real choices".

Well, OK, we're ready.

Please, visit bigintervention.org.uk and join in the protest. Let your MP know that you feel Tony Blair is no longer capable of leading the Labour Party to victory in the next General Election. Let’s get rid of this fool once and for all.



As someone recently said, "let's make 'Well, i voted for Labour last time, but.....' the new black".

State Department retracts terrorism assertion:

"The U.S. government acknowledged Thursday that a recent report declaring a decline in terrorism in 2003 was wrong.
The report, released in April and touted by top administration officials as a sign of the success of the war on terrorism, was based on faulty data, said State Department spokesman Richard Boucher.
In fact, he told reporters, the corrected report will show 'a sharp increase over the previous year.' The corrected version is not yet completed, he said."

Remember, this man has no reverse gear....

I'm moving on...

I liked him, he was just cool.....

It's the end of the world as we know it...:

"Since 1993, there have been 300 confirmed cases of illicit trafficking in radiological materials, 215 of them in the past five years. And the IAEA warns that the real level of smuggling may well be significantly larger, citing reports of a further 344 instances over the past 11 years which have not been confirmed by any of the 75 states that monitor illicit trafficking."

Tonight's Newsnight has an article about how none of the labour leaflets for this week's 'Super Thursday' feature Tony Blair. None of them, not one. However, if you go back to the 1999 leaflet campaign (yes there really is someone who keeps this stuff) his cherubic face is beaming out of every single one.

So, what's changed?

There will be more on how we ought to enforce a regime change in out own country over the next few days.

Herald.com | 06/06/2004 | Kiss the eel and lay down your cheese:

"Be advised that a Poker Craze is sweeping the nation. Almost every night there are poker tournaments on television. And if you think that watching people play cards on television would be boring, I have three words for you: Correct-O-Mundo."

"I've never played serious poker, so I took along a friend, Philippe Boets, who is an expert. Unfortunately, he's not an expert on poker: He is an expert on pétanque, an extremely French sport where you toss steel balls around, the object being to eventually stop and have lunch."

And the driver is a 'Newby', oh dear.

It wasn't me! The talking car was driving itself!

(That's 2 Hasslehoff stories in less than a week. Worrying trend).

The group hunting for Iraq's weapons of mass destruction is unlikely to report that Saddam Hussein was no threat to the world, Tony Blair has said.:

Especially if they want to keep their jobs.

If he was such a threat, how come none of his neighbours are in there with us to help keep the peace, or were there when the coalition troops invaded? Not one of his immediate neighbours has had anything at all to do with this invasion, except Saudi Arabia who i believe allowed the staging of troops from within their borders, but never joined the coalition troops.

Tony Blair. What a wanker. In fact, what a lying wanker.

Let us examine the latest addition to the Pikey Index, your sure-fire measurement of all things pikey:

How many clip-on England flags do you have on your car?

0: Congratulations. You are not pikey. You may, however, be Scottish. Or Welsh.
1: 'Help! My kids made me buy one at Asda.' Slightly pikey.
2: 'I've got Burberry socks, a fake tan and sunglasses modelled by David Beckham.' Very pikey.
3 or more: 'My other car is a white van. What the fack you starin' at?' Well done. You are King of the Chavs."

Had this man not existed you might not be reading this...

News: "It emerged yesterday that Mr Bremer warned the council during talks on Sunday not to put the decision to the vote, saying that if it elected Sheikh Yawar, he would veto the decision."
