...And is what the Tories and Dave don't realise.A whole heap of news sources hit me today like a fucking brick, the sort of moments you have when a pang of realisation happens.First off was this utterly farcical bullshit. Yes, we, the British people, are whacking 1.5 million bad boys at the traffic problems of third world countries. Yes you did read that right. £1.5 million on poor traffic lights and zebra crossings because bad traffic and driving kills a lot of poor people. Quite why t... Read Full Story

Hello, John Demetriou here. Remember me? I sometimes write for this site. Yes, indeed, apologies for my 'BEST BLOG IN THE WORLD' absence of late. Don't take it personally, though. I've been laying off the internet in general the last week or so because it (like most facets to modern life) has been poisoning me and taking over my life.However, like a lover of good Ale, I'm over my hangover and I'm up for a stiff sample of the good stuff. I.e. my brilliant writing. So stop what you're doing, pu... Read Full Story

Only a matter of time really.We've had Blears and others harping on about, well, us for ages now because of one thing:They cannot control usIn case you missed it Baroness Buscombe, Chair of the utterly pathetic, shambolic and possibly most useless body on Earth, the PCC has called on the regulation of bloggers. The phrase lalaland springs to mind. The reasoning for this daft cow's argument is simply superb:Some of the bloggers are now creating their own ecosystems which are quite sophisticate...

Oh yes, tomorrow is the 'big' day when Gordy sets out his stall. Dave and Nicky are getting all worked up about it like two pathetic little boys arguing about the bigger boy being bigger, forgetting that they would do the same given the chance.Brown has about 6 months left of the fine life, then he's out on his ear. He knows it, we know it and barring the moronic masses having yet another moronic moment and voting him back in, it shall come to pass. Therefore he has to go for it in this Speec... Read Full Story

Following the Glasgow North East election results the winning candidate claimed it as a victory for the policies of Gordon Brown and the Labour party. This is strange, because really it was a victory for idiocy.The Mighty D forwarded me this article on the BBC today about the constituency that effectively founded the Labour movement. It has been hardcore and die hard ever since and has never even looked at another woman let alone had an affair. No, This part of Glasgow is socialist through an... Read Full Story

This is Bo'n'Dage FM and you're listening to Kevin Boatang and his buns of steel, wadin' in on behalf of all you truckers out there. Can I get a whoop? Thought not.Nothing like lowering the tone on a sensitive issue that's what I say.Now, this bloody Jacqui Janes thing. I've stayed away from the subject in order to see what is going on, and what is going on is what I thought in the first place: The Sun are a bunch of shits.Mrs Janes is obviously very sad, upset and in mourning and given the c...

I watched a channel 4 documentary over the weekend called 'The Day of the Kamikaze', which was a fascinating historical portrayal of the Japanese Kamikaze fighters who fought for their country on the Pacific front during WW2.As ever, I found myself utterly enthralled by the production. I love documentaries on pretty much anything, even stuff I'm not generally into, but war stuff is like waving a pouch of the white stuff in front of a Bolivian playboy. I can't get enough of it.That said, I do ... Read Full Story

Oh yes, a big old title for a Sunday to be sure, but what the hell.Some may have watched a documentary on BBC2 last night about life behind the Berlin Wall and the efforts and counter-efforts of those therein. It was the usual story of man talks about freedom gets spied on by friend goes on march knocks wall down gets freedom. You know, one of those stories.But one of the things that struck me was not so much the tales of yesteryear from those that were there, interesting as they were, but th... Read Full Story

HelloThere's still some time left before the 5th of November ends and the 6th begins, so I thought I'd quickly knock up a timely piece noting an observation made earlier on today by Dame Demetriou (credit and 'hat tipping' where it is due and all that)."Name me," she randomly asked after dinner, "two of the most memorable, seismic and explosive acts of political sedition and violence ever to take place in London."So I thought about it, and was slightly annoyed with myself for only coming up w...

Remember, remember the fifth of November,The gunpowder treason and plot,I know of no reasonWhy the gunpowder treasonShould ever be forgot. Today certain bloggers and readers of blogs have come together in London to boost one man's ego - sorry, I of course mean to march on Parliament. The choice of costume for this occasion is that of Guy Fawkes as a symbol of defeating Parliament and its control in order to gain freedom. Or something.The same outfit is warn by V in the V for Vendetta series.... Read Full Story
