loginandtonic Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 talk about rearranging the deckchairs on the titanic. disintegrating before our eyes. all stems from their inability to know when it's time to admit defeat and call it a day, most political careers end in failure sooner or later, the trick is to know when its time to go. if you dont know when its time to go and you go on living in denial you just get to look really silly as it all unravels slowly instead of putting your pride to one side and knowing when its over its over. time to call the election and stop this charade of pretending all's well, its getting to farce levels now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tricksters Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Mandy looked shocked at the direct, very forceful accusation of using the 4 letter jobby. He's usually pretty good at slithering out of trouble, but give her her due, the girl kept on giving it to him "why did you use that 4 letter word...?!!" The smug little bully boy didn't really know how to handle the situation and seemed rattled......the pressure is starting to tell. They're falling apart at the seams. Implosion imminent?

Executive Sadman Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Only yesterday PM was going on about being non partisan and working for other parties to better screw, er, help the nation. So why he should care about who the Sun support is a non issue. We all know the only Allegiance Peter Mandelson has is to Peter Mandelson. Only idiots like the liebour party would believe different.

loginandtonic Posted September 30, 2009 Author Share Posted September 30, 2009 i'm not a tory, i dont read the torygraph unless its left on a train, but i agree with this blog & the comments below- they are spot on http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/davidhug...-about-the-sun/ i would add that brown etc are at the end of the line, what the point is of them getting upset & risking their health is beyond me, defeat is clear and thats that, if i were them i'd go now and save my health and whatever dignity is left it is obvious that the wriggling and behaviour from them now is a reaction to the overwhelming pressure to go, to call it a day, to bow out. everything is screaming at them "go!" but yet they will not do so, and as a result they are facing humiliation after humiliation, and all the time driving the country nearer and nearer to an IMF health spa vacation i dont know what bribes for the electorate may be in the pipeline, but the sooner people realise its them and their kin who will meet the bill in years to come the better, there is no free lunch with any political party but least of all with tax you to death labour, and yet again it all ends in bust and bankruptcy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enrieb Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Union boss rips up copy of Sun http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/8283549.stm Ok I hate Murdoch and The Sun, but the sight of a Union Boss ripping up a copy at the Labour party conference is more than a little disturbing. All The Sun has said is what almost everyone is thinking anyway, are newspapers only allowed to print positive government news stories now. Soon these freaks could be burning books.

All The Sun has said is what almost everyone is thinking anyway, are newspapers only allowed to print positive government news stories now. Soon these freaks could be burning books. The Union boss you mention is Tony Woodley of the city of Liverpool. The city of Liverpool has a long standing campaign against the Sun newspaper following the Sun publishing lies about the actions of Liverpool fans in the wake of the Hillsborough disaster in 1989 and never publishing a full apology despite admitting that they published untruths. Hillsborough Justice Campaign The Sun is already despised on Merseyside, the Union leader's actions were justified on these grounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDW Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 From The Telegraph comments Brown reveals his true self, at last. He is a bully, and no amount of sugar-coated words from his experienced PR wifey will alter that fact. I’m glad people are getting a glimpse of the real Gordon Brown. He dictates. He doesn’t debate. Brown baiting is about to become a new sport, I suspect. How long before The Times complies with the new reality evident at their News International stable mates, The Sun and Sky TV? Like all bare-faced liars, deluded Brown turns aggressive when confronted with reality, and no escape – despite his instinct to do a runner today. Ridiculous behaviour. Any ideas how we can join in this Brown baiting ? It sounds like fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macca Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 I know its way too late for NuLabour to be changing their tune and they have fecked up very badly but it is possible to some degree that they will now have to do more for ordinary people as they have been punished so badly in the polls. Sucking up to the rich has gotten them nowhere in the longrun so their only option is to acknowledge their core voters. Do we really want to let the Tories in to continue feeding the rich and crush this country into the ground? I think a lot of people have foolishly forgotten how bad they were.

Cygnus Alpha Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Only in this country would we allow an Australian media tycoon to tell us who to vote for. Just think of the outcry if a Briton tried to tell the Aussies which party to vote for. Perhaps too many people have been brainwashed by Murdoch into accepting this sorry state of affairs.

Perhaps too many people have been brainwashed by Murdoch into accepting this sorry state of affairs. Honestly a little perspective is needed here, they aren't telling anyone who to vote for! They are just reflecting what the general population is thinking after Labours piss poor job. I wonder why nobody seemed to complain when the sun was backing Labour during these past 12 years??
