In defence of Boy George

Much as it galls me to do this, I have to ask his many critics: what did he actually do? Especially when Labour ministers are falling over themselves to claim all sorts of ludicrous things:

George Osborne could have breached the law covering donations to political parties simply by discussing a possible donation from a Russian billionaire, a senior Labour MP has suggested.


Really? Well, I suggest that Denis MacShane could have commited child molestation, by simply exposing children to the utter bullshit he speaks on a daily basis. I'm not sure my suggestion would stand up in a court of law, though.

And the sheer, unmitigated brass neck of these cunts who actively fiddled dozens of bent donations and who have had cabinet ministers resign for being caught fiddling their own rules (albeit only for a week or two) comparing that to someone having a chat over dinner is a bit fucking rich.

Make no mistake, George was a weapons-grade cock end for even having the discussion (especially with Mandelsnake within a thousand miles of the table) and that "dripping poison" fatuity is coming back to haunt him with a vengeance, but unless he actually took any money, there is absolutely nothing more than a trumped up play to try and get Gordon out of the shit pit this week.

I fear this is not so much a case of what did he do wrong, but one of Murdoch flexing his muscles.

Remember that Murdoch was also in the vicinity of the yachts, and the vehicles for the diatribe are all Murdoch vehicles backed by the BBC.

No, This is a warning shot to Cameron, to remind him to toe the internationalist line. Murdoch can build him up, and destroy him.

Is it because Osborne is the Tories current Bilderberger.

Can't risk having one of those running about like a loose cannon, shooting his mouth off about private meetings.

This is a big Murdoch slap down on behalf of Bilderberg (of which Rothschild is a key member).

Or it could just be a load of lying, scheming, gold diggers with index linked pensions out to knobble the 'other lot' and keep the focus off themselves.

Time for some more bunker videos with reworked subtitles... I tell you, that lot in power are going seriously nuts. I'd be scared if I were you.

Obo,

Section 61(1) of PPERA states that:

"61.—(1) A person commits an offnce if he—
(a) knowingly enters into, or
(b) knowingly does any act in furtherance of,
any arrangement which facilitates or is likely to facilitate, whether by means of any concealment or disguise or otherwise, the making of donations to a registered party by any person or body other than a permissible donor."

So it is quite possible that we are talking about an offence under section 61(1)(b), which on summary conviction carries a penalty of the statutory maximum fine or six months’ imprisonment, and on indictment a fine or one year’s imprisonment.

That is, you are in trouble just for trying to organise a fiddle, never mind about whether you actually took the cash. Does that help?

Yeah, but there's no proof he actually tried to organise a fiddle, and anyway, why would you try to organise a fiddle for £50K when you're playing at that level?

I'm with anonymous 1 and 2 on this: it's very much a Murdoch power play, he doesn't think George is doing a good job, so he's getting him fired before he starts pushing Cameron for President [sic].

(I don't think Murdoch is wrong, but I don't like the undemocratic way he inflicts his opinion on us.)
