Things Can Only Get Better

Confidence in Blair has reached an all time low according to the pollsters, the polls show his party has fallen 12 percentage points in 12 months, the Sunday Telegraph reports that that the Loans for Lordships paper trail leads to an inked margin note in Tony's handwriting. The police have lost track of hundreds of paedophiles, the Home Secretary is writing to judges asking them to free the guilty because they have not built new prisons. The army is overstretched and under-equipped providing target practise for enemies who present no threat to the national interest and are readying for their own civil war. The NHS is in chaos and schools policy is in disarray. The Labour party faces annihilation in Scotland at the hands of the SNP and the cabinet is on the edge of anarchy with ministers openly campaigning against government policies. Two trusted close Downing Street advisers have been arrested and another two interviewed under caution as suspects. The police have even asked a few difficult questions of the PM himself.

Things can only get better Tony.

That could be the opening for the next labour party political broadcast.

....and maybe he will go before they get worse. This week according to Iain Dale

Maybe it is time for a New NuLabour theme tune, and my vote goes to
"Always Look on the Bright Side of Life"

Guido,

I notice that you don't mention that the spooks'favourite Sunday speaks of a trio rather than a quartet at the heart of the Loans for Lordships row.

In the light of this 'revelation' will you finally admit that it is most unlikely that Jonny 'Mole' Pole will be fingered by his Thames House handlers for reasons that are stunningly obvious to any conspiracy buff?

Regards,

Spook Buster

It shows how out of touch politicos are when Reid is on radio 4 making a prat of himself today. He actually thinks anyone believes a word of it. Bliar to go in a matter of weeks rather than months

jj said...

Thanks for that masterly summary of the situation, Guido. Quite cheered one up on a grey Monday morning..........

javelin said...

I joked at the weekend that John Reid would introduce waiting lists for prisons - UNBELIEVABLY he is actually thinking of doing it !!

Maybe he ought to take up my other suggestion of beds in the prison corridors first.

Yes Guido but who will save us?

It can get much, much worse. Imagine the awful Brown as PM, with that twat Balls as Chancellor. Much worse...
Hey, but Labour can't be in power forever, please put them out of our misery....

And yet only a 7% lead in the YouGov poll for the Tories. Sitting on the fence and letting nuLab stew in its own juice is not working. Previously when a government of this incompetence was in power the main Opposition party would be 20% ahead as in 1994-7, 1967-69. A newoldLab government lead by Brown scuttling from Iraq could overturn such a lead.

Labour won't be in power for ever. But who is to replace them? Fauntleroy sounds more NuLab every day.

Graham E said...

All of these issues and yet name one that Cameron has attacked Blair on.
Time for this muppet to either start biting or make way for someone who will.
Just how much ammunition does he need before he realises that it's time to start
saying what people want to hear. 'Green' issues just don't cut the mustard
with the majority of the electorate Dave.

Maculine or Feminine?

An old Labour veteran told me last night how pissed off he is with the hijacking of his party

...that he regarded the old working class Labour as essentially very Masculine

and NuLab?
definately Feminine, he replied,
that is, because we have a big wet cunt that is fucking everything, and behind it, out of sight, hides a Brown arse hole

How apt

How right you are Graham, just imagine if this was the Tories with 10 years of shame, the front pages would be full!
Just remember how vitriolic Prescott was, over what were trivialities compared with this shower

bt said...

For Toni "Mr Delusional" Blair, the picture looks very different.

""Hey, you know, look, dropping 12 points in 12 months? Typical mid-term dip in the polls, and the tempory losses aren't going to a policy-free opposition, are they? When the voters see how successful our new, radical and totally carbon-free ideas are, it'll all turn round in time for the next election."

At least, I hope it's a delusion.
Perhaps only Yates can save us.

Dan Druff said...

And for those of us trying to do some serious research into Social Enterprise, all Google roads seem to lead to www.cabinetoffice.gov.uk which my (admittedly Firefox) browser tells me is unavailable....has the government got to this stage were they can't even get their websites to work?

Are they busy deleting some Prescott balls up? (Should that be chipolata up?)

wonderfulforhisage said...

What we really need is another way; a third way.

Anonymous said...

Dave don't bite.

He spends all his time trying to imitate Blair when the brand is going out of fashion. His latest attempt to triangulate his way into favour with the head bangers is pathetic.

The MRSA ridden hospitals are symbolic of the state of the country.Sadly Dave has the nulab virus and isn't the one to clean it up. He is too worried about his carbon footprint to make any sense to the absentee voters he needs to get elected.

Don't be idiots. Blame The BBC, ITV and Sky, who minimise Labour's embarrasments for them and minimise Conservative airtime to criticise them. Broadcast news is just waiting for opportunities to shit on the Tories to disguise the crap in Labour.
There could be 3 years until the next election and, like it or not, too many of the pig-ignorant people, in this country watch TV news and only form their opinions form that. Why give the NuLab media, sticks to beat the Tories with, when Cameron can sit back and watch Labour implode and become unelectable again. Right-wing ranting in the Daily Mail won't make a fucking bit of difference except get the BBC kicking shit out of the Tories again and influencing, an ever, TV led electorate.

On june 1st the Home Information Packs become mandatory and will wreck the housing market.They were not as commonly thought, abandoned last year and a whole host of interest groups have held them up in the hope it will create a new industry to skim more money off Joe Public. If you think things look bad now wait for that stink bomb to go off. Gordon will be just arranging his desk in no10 as well.....

Scary Biscuits said...

Geezer, I couldn't agree more. We've got to be patient and remember that revenge is a dish best served cold.

Gordon probably hasn't got the guts to go to the country early even if he gets a bounce in the polls.

Plan B is for him to sit it out, John Major style, and hope that it somehow works itself out. What we know for certain is that he lacks any new ideas. If he had any he would be implementing them now and a grateful Blair and country would be eager, rather than reluctant, for him to take over.

The mess in the army, hospitals, prisons, social security and schools etc. is at least partly his fault and it is difficult to believe that it will be significantly better when he's more fully in charge. It's he rather than Blair who is truely deluded.

Too bloody right. Did you hear Start the Week with Mr Jackie Ashley on R4 this morning? It was like a campus SWP meeting.

Penfold said...

Time for a revolution by the people for the people.
Time to clean the Augean Stable.
Time to clean up politics and eliminate the professional politicoes who have ballsed everything up.
Time to reorganise our country and our orgainsations, Save the NHS, Get the criminals of the streets, Guard our borders, Send the asylum fraudsters and illegals away, et al.
Time for the British people to reclaim their country.
Time for the British people to rule over themselves, not some bunch of sleazy, oily, continental apparatchiks, who are unelected and unaccountable.
Time to use the lamp-posts for their secondary option of stringing up the rats.
Time is now something we are short of, this NuLab lot are determined to go down with the sinking ship and take everybody down with them in some grand apacalyptic Wagnerian act reminiscent of Adolf in the bunker.
Time to act.
Viva la revolucion.

Huge problem for the Tories is that they are as inept and corrupt as NewLab, just give them time ... they don't want to stitch up Labour because they know it could bring their dirty laundry into the open ... anyone for a breath of fresh air ... now, who was that chap Mr Fawkes ... same goes for all the parties Liberal or Green or Watever ... absolute tossers ...

Scary Biscuits said...

Geezer and anonymous 11.56,

One other thought: to your list of enemies of the people (e.g. BBC, ITV, Channel 4 etc) should be added News International. This Rupert Murdoch company owns his vanity publications including: The News of the World, those of them that are not in prison already; The Sun, which prints NuLab headlines in return for privileged information, e.g. Gordon's budget details before they are announced in Parliament, in defiance of the Prevention of Corruption Act 1906; and The (loss making) Times, the Sunday version of which came up with a lovely vignette yesterday.

"THE Tories are planning to flout electoral spending laws in the local elections." Note the this was as a statement of fact in the news section of the paper. It was not a quote or an opinion. However, reading further down the article one finds that even the Labour Party chair, doesn't go as far as The Sunday Times saying only, "The Tories are clearly asking their candidates to raise three times more than the legal limit." This is completely true and legal as the limit only applies to the month before the election. It has come to something when News Interational employees feel the need to lie for NuLabour. It's also against their code or conduct. Please feel free to join me in complaining to the PCC.

pete said...

Geezer

Hilarious. 'The media is biased', 'The Labour Party is cheating', 'the voters are stupid'. Anything but admit the truth: Jade Goody would win more votes than the Tories.

The reason the Tories aren't in power is not some conspiracy, it's because they're unelectable. So unelectable that their own leaders have abandoned all Tory principles and decided to copy Blair.

And Scary Biscuits, do you really mean to say that tabloid rags print lies? Amazing! Forget "scary biscuits", you're one sharp cookie.

What makes you think that this is a purely anti-Tory pastime? Have a look at the Sun's coverage this morning -

http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2-2007040340,00.html

I can't see the Labour bias myself... maybe I'm missing something.

Geezer said...

Pete. you are a numbskull. The most dim-witted of astro-turfers.

"..Missing Something" At least a semi-functioning brain, I'd say.

This is the last time I dignify you with a reply. Quoting the Sun further demonstrates your childish grasp of anything political.

Geezer: "Quoting the Sun further demonstrates your childish grasp of anything political"

Scary Biscuits: "The Sun, which prints NuLab headlines..."

Would you like me to draw you a diagram?

Casual Observer:
Is this:

"So as the search for Dr Reid' brain continues, here’s our rundown of he’s biggest blunders to date..." (their typos, not mine)

a pro-Labour bias?

(Actually... Vince Soodin has no grasp of grammar, a crap line in insults and can't tell a joke.

Geezer, do your employers know you're slagging them off online?)

Cassandra said...

Gosh Pete, thanks for drawing our attention to the Sun slagging off Reid. It's soo convincing of their lack of bias.

Now who was it who was sitting next to Rupe in Davos?

This happy breed of men, this little world,
This precious stone set in the silver sea,


Sold to the large-nosed gentleman at the back!

Which serves it in the office of a wall,
Or as a moat defensive to a house,


Bliar's broken down the wall and filled the moat with rubbish.

Against the envy of less happier lands,

Whose inhabitants Bliar has allowed to flood in, bringing with them everything that made their own lands less happy.

This blessed plot, this earth, this realm,
this England.


Is now sliding down the slope towards disasters we've not seen for centuries.

So, GEEZER, your strategy would be to do nothing but let the other team score own goals. Forgotten how many 'own goals, ZanuLabour scored in their 1st and 2nd terms? Still got elected for a 3rd term didn't they. And the reason was that people couldn't perceive a viable opposition.And you think that by sitting back and doing nothing the Conservatives will somehow manage to convince the electorate that they are a viable alternative. Sort of 'do nothing and hope for the best' eh? You don't work for the Home Office by any chance do you?

No you twat. Geezer has a well paid, but insecure IT contractor job, in the private sector. No paid holidays, no non-contributary pension, no paid sick-leave.
But a very useful flexible asset in the productive side of the economy.

With and election, up to, 3 and half years away, they should keep the powder dry.

Once Labour have finally drowned they're election chances, beyond repair, It will be easier for the Tories to make their move. The Tories are frozen out by the NuLab media, and only mentioned when they are being slagged off.
Tony Bliar only had a bit over 2 and half years as opposition leader. Cameron may have nearly 5 years. It's better to c'mon on strong before their is time to lose momentum and get a hatchet job from the Beeb

Geezer said...

I might also add, that, Bliar is a lame duck PM who will be gone very soon. So the Tories, wasting ammunition on an isolated, powerless and extremely unpopular man is pointless.

One-eyed Gordo will be the PM in the next election so the Tories may as well wait until he's made PM, before starting a proper counter assault. And the shit will continue to hit the fan when Brown is leader. Not least, the economy will be on the slide as well. All the BBC "isn't Gordon lovely" propoganda won't be able to save them!
