Scorched Earth

Capitalists@Work has been running an interesting series on how the Labour government scorched the earth, not just in terms of slashing and burning the money, but also in terms of the legal landmines they left behind.

Not only profligate with someone else's money, but devious and vicious in making it as difficult as possible to pick up the pieces.

Of course, if the coalition was serious about the "great reform bill", it would be the work of a week to list every bit of legislation created by New Labour and quite simply repeal the fucking lot. If there was anything useful, it could almost certainly be re-drafted (better) and re-voted upon.

But, of course, they aren't. They're just a bunch of makeweights and dullards playing the game of politics, posturing as emptily and vacuously as the mad Scot or the cunto di tutti cunti did before him.

Useless cock-suckers.

Spiteful to the very last

Gordon Brown never ceases to amaze me with his childish, vicious spite. What a cunt.

You can actually see...

... the moment his political career leaves his body ...

Update: More.

A gurning fuck knuckle speaks

I just watched "it", you know, the snot-gargling Scottish fuckmonkey's latest clusterfuck (because somehow, "faux pas" just doesn't cut it) and the thing that struck me was his rictus grin during his equally appalling mea culpa press meeting.

It wasn't the embarrassed, shamefaced grin of someone ashamed of what they've done. It was the arrogant sneer of someone saying "well, if I do this little thing, I can get away with fucking anything - you people are so fucking dumb."

I can't, offhand, think of anyone I have ever despised so much. I don't just want him gone. I want him crushed, destroyed and forced to contemplate his fall from grace for a very, very long time.

The utter, unspeakable, motherfucking cunt.

What the FUCK????

What the hell is this?

Dear Gordon

I see that you're now going to spend our money "wisely".

I was just wondering, you utter cock-sniffing, clinically insane, arse bandit fuckwit: why, after 13 years of pissing our money away like a drunken sailor in port for the first time in six months, you suddenly feel like you may be able to spend our money "wisely", and more importantly, why the cunting fuck you haven't fucking been spending our money wisely to date?

I look forward to hearing your answer, but I'm really not holding my breath.

You cunt.

Hysterically funny

Janet and John go to see the Queen:

“Are you ready to go to the Palace to see the Queen, Gordon? Did you put on my favourite mauve tie of yours? You did. Let me look at you… you look sooooo smart. I am so proud of you Gordon.”

I get the distinct impression that Iain Martin thinks Gordon Brown is a bit of a cunt.

Gordon's great achievement!

Timmy at the ASI:

Brown's great achievement therefore was to test that tax and spend model to destruction.

Can we all agree that it hasn't worked and can we please try some other fucking thing now?

Oh, I fucking hope he is...

The Gorgon? On my sofa? With a cup of tea that I've made specially for him? That he will have to drink all the way down, because the cameras will be watching?

Oh yes, please!

Britain is broken in many different ways

So after the bullygate polling, I was curious:

A YouGov poll carried out for the Sun after the Rawnsley revelations and has the Tories up two to 41 with Labour dropping four to 29. This poll has, obviously, been taken at the worst time for Labour but, at first blush, it does suggest that the bullying allegations have cut through.

Is it just me who finds this incredibly depressing? Are the British so fickle that some sleaze will take the shine off the Prime Mentalist and then after a week or two, the sleaze will be forgotten and Gorgon's share price will start going up again? I mean, the fucker has ruined the country, fucked it sixteen ways from Sunday, and people are losing a bit of faith in him because he chucks Nokias around? For a couple of days, anyway.

It's true. We really do deserve the government we get.

Update: It seems that someone got their facts wrong. Cunts.

Holy fuck!

Is that scary or what?

Under Labour 1964-70, the stock market’s real return (adjusted for inflation) went down by 13 per cent. Under Labour 1974-79 (which included Denis Healey’s grovelling to the IMF), it went down by 11.5 per cent. Under Mr Brown, the London stock market’s decline in real return is more than 20 per cent.

More than 20 per cent!? Fucking hellski!

Well, ...

... DUH!?

SO much funnier than the Labour one...

Genius.

Pass the mind bleach!

Yuk:

We just need to ram Gordon Brown down the electorate’s throat

That would certainly work!

I laughed too

Tip of the clown wig to Man Widdicombe.

Gordon HAS been showing the way!

Where Gordo leads, Obama follows!

Election announcement coming?

The Eventard has a couple of wryly amusing posts:

How convenient. The car scrappage scheme is to be extended because only 330,000 new cars have been ordered against the limit of 400,000.

Now, the scheme was due to end in February. It has been extended, not until April or May, but to the end of March.

Now why is that? You may well ask.

And:

Valentine's Day is fast approaching. Are you wondering how to spend a romantic evening with your partner. Do you buy a present. There are the flowers to think of. Don't worry, a ready made solution at hand.

This year, the evening arrangements and the present come in one neat package at no cost. On 14 February Piers Morgan, a good friend of Gordon Brown, will interview the Prime Minister in a one hour TV special:

I have known Gordon Brown for over 15 years - he is a man who has enjoyed great triumph, suffered terrible tragedy, and will soon face the biggest challenge of his career.

Of course, the chosen date for this non-rigorous interview is nothing to do whatsoever with the possibility of a March election. Perish the thought.

You might think that, etc.

Death on Two Legs

Blimey!

Is "the same day" a new record?

First:

Kraft deal for Cadbury: Gordon Brown warns US firm over jobs
Gordon Brown has warned Kraft not to cut jobs at Cadbury after the US food giant's £11.5 billion bid for the British confectioner was finally accepted.

Very shortly thereafter:

Cadbury says job cuts inevitable
Cadbury's chairman confirms to the BBC that job losses are an "inevitability" at the firm after its takeover by US giant Kraft Foods

Warning: This man is cursed!

However ...

... we did discuss the economic and political situation in the (rather empty) pub. A disturbing number of our mutual acquaintances seemed to be looking for new jobs or faced with the threat of redundancy or being asked to train their replacements from Mumbai. We also discussed the empty government coffers. Someone piped up that the latest government wheeze was that they were going to tax the fuck out of redundancy packages, because there were going to be so many of them.

Everyone went quiet.

The guy looked at our stunned expressions and then said, "Don't worry, it's a joke!"

We just looked at each other.

You know it's coming, don't you?
