Crisis at Christmas
As Christmas approaches it is the traditional time to think of those less fortunate than ourselves. You know, the hopeless, friendless and soon-to-be bankrupt. Someone has established a blog to Keep Tony Blair as PM. I'm not quite sure why, as the link was received by Your Servant via multiple intermediaries. Heavy irony suspected.
For genuinely pitiful loneliness, of course, you have to go to people trapped in the state sector. Take this poor old chap. Be honest: could you live with yourself if you came back in January and found that he had gone the same way as Benny Hill? Probably "yes". But that's not the point. Take time to pay him a visit. Never forget: a blog is for life, not just for Christmas.

Hmm.. not sure there is any point.
I've left a comment on 'milibandwidth' but it will take a day to be moderated, to 'make sure it complies with our terms and conditions'. So that's alright then.
Catesby, how could you do this to an admirer? I clicked on, and felt like cutting my throat after 25 seconds of reading that turgid garbage!
As real Conservative that's the kind of image I like to see at Christmas, working class children sat amongst the ruins of their council house sitting there feeling grateful for being given the opportunity to better themselves and get away from their feckless parents.
Should any of those urchins be looking for a position as a scullery maid or boot black they can contact me on Scotton Pinkey 569
£1 a week, free accommodation (fresh straw every monday) three meals a day ,Sunday afternoons off
Are those girls looking with modest deference to the boy for leadership ?As it should always be ,and as it would remain without mind bending wimmins studies .
Women love to be told what to do. Why not this Christams give them a holiday from pretending otherwise
As a member of "Conservative Continuity" ,I `ve had a lot of time for Defra ever since I read they were spending the farmers money on wild parties .Just think how pleased the yokels will be to have something else to moan about as well

Shame to mix up genuine hardship at Christmas...can I use that word?..with the hardship of the bankrupt asylum that is the Labour Party...
Could someone please explain to me what lies behind this idea of having farms in schools? Is it that some classrooms are only fit for pigs? Or less able pupils will be re-categorised as "livestock" so that their poor exam results won't affect the league table results? I would have thought that there were huge health and safety issues involved here but Miliband is promoting it on his website - so it must be a wonderful idea then.
Did the boy just let one off?
On a slightly different matter, Lord Adonis has just been on the World at One. He suggested that schools are improving so rapidly because of "money provided by Gordon Brown".
That's very kind, Gordon. Thank goodness taxpayers haven't had to foot the bill.
His use of English is a bit strange, talking about "rural proofing" and "community proofing" government departments, presumably as in rust-proofing and waterproofing. I doubt that's what he means.
Seems also he's at odds with Bliar and Reid as he claims crime rates are falling. If so, what's with all the ASBOs and totalitarian legislation?
Perhaps Mr Miliband would receive more comments if the comments were not heavily modified, and if he responded to promote debate.
It's the most un blog like blog ever, another pointless platform for press releases.
Rural crime-rates are falling because the rural population is getting older. It's got bugger-all to do with new policies I'm afraid.
Peter - is "real Conservative" like "real IRA"?
I assume Newmania, that you are single and likely to remain so.
The Milliblog will only allow comments of a sycophantic nature. Ask him what he was thinking of, wasting our money on his vanity project. Just don't expect a reply.
No, no. Real Conservatism is genuine, its 'continuity conservatives' you have to watch out for.

So is the rest of the population and when did age, rather than death, deter the dedicated criminal?
As an aside, there seems to be a boring sameness about crime in the UK. Here on the sunrise side of the world, crime is much more inventive and ingenious.
newmania - and which boy in particular should girls look to for leadership?
LILLITH -I assume Newmania, that you are single and likely to remain so.
You assume wrongly Lillith and no doubt do so knowingly in the expectation of receiving the firm smack of correction. Hope you enjoyed it .
On my second marriage actually. I must just love it . Anony 3.59. A girl should of course look to David Cameron for the period we are pretending to be Liberals . When the good ship Conservative is docked in the port of state up will fly the Jolly Roger of the right and a new hero will emerge. Meanwhile, Cameron ticked off King Ken for dissing Trevor Phillips ( my new best friend) and is by no means all bad . He’s your man .

Sort of .. only with more guns and less compassion.
Millitwat needs an operation. Although struck off the medical register due to malpractice issues, I offer to remove this fuckwits testes and replace them with a vagina thereby equiping him for his true role in public life - cleaning the toilets at Bank Station and tending to the needs of bankrupt day traders.
Is that Millitwat in the picture?
"this is brilliant, one day I'll do this to the country"
The photo reminds me of an illustration for one of Richmal Crompton's William stories!
E.g., "With Violet Elizabeth Bott still gazing adoringly at him, William dejectedly considers how he will explain his demolition of the Brown household to his father..."
Apparently poor kids get hit by cars alot more.
The consequences of slashing tyres while the cars are still moving….
Any day now newmania will set his sights higher and try to sleep with someone who's not a relative/who can outrun him. Remember what someone said about Thomas Carlyle and his wife, that it was so nice of them to marry one another and so make only two, rather than four, people miserable.
