(It’s not satire – it’s George Osborne!)
Oh dear. Looks like George Osborne has got his sums wrong again.
He’s only gone and left himself – well us actually – short after he undervalued the 4G mobile broadband auction by £1.2bn.
Regular readers of this blog will know I’m quite a fan of our Chancellor.
In fact – as this latest fiasco goes to show – I think he’s a bit of a genius.
With his immense balls-up over the 4G auction valuation – our George has gone one better than even his Tory Chancellor predecessors.
Because unlike them – this PROVES he knows NEITHER the price NOR the value of anything.
So come on all you Gideon doubters, admit it! How many other people would be able to blag their way into being put in charge of the British economy when they clearly can’t count and their only previous job was as a towel folder in Selfridges?
Genius!

Well actually Canon and Balls blaged their way into the treasury. Let us not forget they are going to raise 2.6 billion through council tax on 70,000 houses, ie a council tax of £38,000,000 per year on each house. This is money that in their poor deluded minds they have already spent. They had of course already spent the £4.5 billion several times over from the 4G sell. No matter how short we are with Osbourne, it looks pretty good compared with the Incredible Shrinking Men of the Labour Party.

Its only worth what people are willing to pay for it. Whilst the economy is tanking, the value of consumers spending power on stuff like mobile phones has a knock on effect to government bonds, rights and license grants.
When they break up and sell off what’s left of the publicly owned assets like the BBC, NHS, POLICE & MOD, we will all literally be “owned” by Oligarchs and boardrooms and Gideon will have his numerous seats on numerous boards and shall want for nothing.
I didn’t vote for him, neither did 70% of the adult population but you have to admit. If a towel re-folder can do so well in such a small space of time, there must be hope for the rest of us… Right Tom? Tom? Mr Pride, are you there? Can you call the nurse/warden, I need to take my medication now……

the compensation trick has been pulled once too often by Tories, so we will wait for the official accusations instead of lining peers’ pockets.

Ah Bob, you’ve crawled out of you’re hole.Now the names you are longing to mention are on a list compiled by the female owner of the house or is it hostel – and it could have been both, in 1989, seemingly when she was working in some way with Mary Moss.The list names a number of Conservatives, one Labour, and about half a dozen celebrities, one of which is pretty well known. The list refers to a time in the early eighties, and so was completed several years after the event. It is not clear why Mary Moss constructed this list with the owner, or indeed why she kept local goverment documents and files, as this is what she appears to have done, when she left the local authority. The woman involved had seemingly made her own son available for sex under the age of 13 – and if so she would not seem to be the most reliable of witnesses. It seems the public sector employees from the local children’s homes were taking their charges to service the needs of who ever stopped there, or whoever was visiting. I suspect that a fare amount of drug taking and alcohol was involved, and that would only be the MPs! The normal spin put on this is that it was being seriously investigated by the local police, who were then stopped when after a raid by the local police theMetroplolitan police, of course at the direct orders of Margaret Thatcher, could it be anyone else? However at the time of the raid there were four local police officers stopping at the Guest House, all seemingly undercover. This does not seem very likely to me. It could just as easily be that the local police were using whatever services were on offer, which might also have included males able to give consent, ie 21 or over, and prostitutes, ie 16 or over, and the raid revealed this embarassing fact. If so there would definately be a cover up; but it would be the police covering up for the police and nothing else. In any case the conscience riven members of the Metroploitan police force who managed to salve their consciences from 1982 to 2012, somehow managed to find the confidence to tell ‘the truth’ to Tom Whatson thirty years after the event. To make it plain if anyone committed acts of child abuse against anyone at the Elms, then they should be and will be investigated and put on trial. The list will include the usual suspects, mainly residential staff, and possibly anyone who worked at the Elms. it will include visitors at the Guest House, some of whom will be affluent professionals, accountants and solicitors and the like. It may actually be that a lot of people stopped at the Elms, who were simply using it as a bed and breakfast, and will have been oblivious to what went on around them. All of this is going to take some working through. Now we will see how strong the evidence is against various ministers or MPs or indeed any of the celebrities, if any of them are charged, and if it goes to court. It is likely that the evidence will be pretty fragile, (look at the history of Mr Measham’s allegations over a thirty year period and you will see what I mean). The sewer awaits you Bob, crawl back into it.

Bookwormbc – there may well have been Labour politicians involved as well as Tories – but it’s the Tories who have very badly fallen out with the police at the moment – giving the cops a strong motivation for the first time ever to shop them.
That’s why this might turn out to be interesting.

We will see – i think there will be a lot of conflict within the metropolitan Police Force between the bent cops that support Labour and the decent ones who dont. But i accept that is my personal political view. And as I have said I have no problem with anyone, after a fair trial being convicted and serving a sentence for crimes against children. I do not however, as Labour have made it, think it should be a party political issue. if the Elmns is linked in anyway to the Paedophile Exchange it may rebound on Labour, as practically every one of them were members of the Labour Party. I think Labour needs new members at the moment doesn’t it?

THE LONESOME END
Ah you vile little maggot,
you contemptible sterile faggot,
you spend your days on Wonderland,
while dreaming your dream of Stasiland,
hunched in your sewer on paedo sites,
your life is one long pederast delight,
looking for scandal to throw around,
concealed in a socialist underground.
One day your noble search for filth
will allow the law to obtain the proof,
then prison awaits my little maggot,
you will share a cell with a virile faggot.
In that cell there will be no place to hide,
so pucker your ring and bend for Tom Pride.
