Disgusting, disrespectful, shifty Gordon Brown. Talking to his chums, grinning and gurning throughout Cameron's reply. Get some manners you disgrace to the nation!
The one obvious observation from that clip is that BALLS ain't no future Prime Minister material. This was Dave's second attack on Ball ache, any chance of providing a link to the Dave's first gonad attack Guido?
A more disgraceful comment was made by one of the front bench when Cameron was saying that we have the highest taxes, and the minister then said "so what".
Strangely the BBC did NOT show this in their 6pm news or the reply Cameron gave to that disgusting "so what" comment. Channel 4 news did show this comment.
Overall, Cameron kicked the cr@p out of New Labour and their budget. This budget was a budget of yet more Enron style accounting. Three cheers from New Labour on how great they are at fooling people yet again. They bought the pensioner vote again, and they bought the single mother vote.
How anyone can seriously stand up with a straight face and say the UK is not in any difficulties and we are well placed to ride any economic storm, is unbelievable.
What you really want is the bit where Blinky's response to Cameron, pointing out that we now have the highest tax burden ever, is an astonishing "So what?". Blinking asrehole.
Balls is claiming - and BBC reporting - that he actually said "so weak" not "so what". Is there any way to prove what he did say? Did not the microphones pick up what he said even if it doesn't come across clearly on the broadcast?
Blinky has the real look of the playground bully, bloated, red-faced - but why expect more, he's spent his entire adult life as the bumboy for that grinning, twitching, pig-ignorant, snivelling bag of shit in No 10. Presumably he was showing off to these two tubs of lard on his on his left. That Hazel Blears has a right gut on her eh? - look at that roll of flab! It's a pound to a pinch of shit they're both sponsored by Holland's pies. A whole row of ugly cunts.
I would love to be a wordsmith, someone who could convey one's feelings without having to resort to the language of the gutter. Unfortunately I am a thick northern twat so bollocks to it.
That fuckwit Balls is a cunt, well done Mr Call me Dave for making him look one!
When I was a child we didn't have a minister and the world was a better place. There was a minister of education who did nothing very much while teachers just got on with their jobs. Try to imagine RAB Butler or Sir Edward Boyle heckling the leader of the opposition. It's a sad indication of how low Parliament has sunk, dragged down by Labour as usual.
Balls' reply and Dave's response ought to be on posters, and T shirts.
Balls seems to have done very well out of various 'allowances', perhaps a bit too well at the taxpayers' expense. The 'so what' moment should be his undoing. It highlights NuLab's snouts in the trough, done nothing wrong mentality to a tee.
Perhaps like Geoff Hoon, he also deserves the initial TC, as in 'That Cunt'.
aah, that's better. Thank you Guido. Twas a good comeback. But surely he could have simply identified the minister for children by just saying "That's bollocks".
Has there aver been a slimier sack of shit than Balls? In any other life he'd be rubbing his hands on a forcourt selling second hand motors.
But no, in the world of NuLabour, arseholes like him are regarded as capable of running the country, rather than of running a back street car shop.
What a load of marxist spivs we have as leaders, bloodsucking anyone who chooses to actually work hard for a living, and paying those who can't be arsed - with our money.
Keep at them David, don't get side tracked by plastic carrier bags, this is serious now.
Stick the verbal knife in and make the piglets squeal; the public is slowly but surely realising that all is not well in the woodshed...and they need someone to sort it out.
Brown's performance throughout Cameron's speech was pathetic and embarrassing. He giggled, wriggled, smirked, and squirmed throughout it, like a naughty schoolgirl getting a rollocking off the teacher for wetting her knickers in class but still weakly trying to be defiant.
Sad to say but our Prime Minister is by far the weirdest, creepiest, and most repulsive creature in public life today.
As for Balls, he clearly shouted 'so what!' to Cameron's remark about Britain's tax burden being the highest in history. His feeble and dishonest attempt to try to blag his way out of it just adds insult to injury. One thing's for sure: Balls political ambitions have suffered a mortal blow today.
Anon 7.41. Nope, they have not bought the pensioner vote. Well, only those that do not pay tax, and even not them as they are suffering eye watering personal inflation rate.
Those pensioners with modest savings and investments have been hit twice by Darling Brown. First when Brown removed the tax credits on dividends and second when the 10% rate goes.
I have widowed lady clients on basic pensions plus an investment portfolio of about £80K to £100K of hard one savings who are living on income of about £9,000 p.a. They have had real reductions income since nuliebour came to power.
Only if you have no money - i.e. pisseed it up against the wall are you maybe better off. If you've worked hard and saved you're screwed.
Brown is a fucking lying cunt.
Do you know what? I now have a vague idea how lefty loonies felt about Thatcher. I never thought I would feel so strongly about a politician. I lived through through Wilson's regime and even he did not really get up my nose like this shit Brown does. Wilson may have been also essentially deceitful but he had some principles. This git is just arrogant and useless.
Trouble is we can now see that we've got this useless junta until that last possible moment that UK electoral legislation allows. They know that they are doomed. So they'll hang it out. But not doomed as Major was by internal wrangling and an effeicient opposition, but because they have fucked up - big time.
You could see this in their faces and in Browns insulting behaviour. Whereas the Tories broadly listened to Darling and kept straight faces Labour grinnned and giggled and twitched and chattered whislt Cameron was speaking as if they could not bear to listen, like an assembly where a whole school was being bollocked by the head for letting the school down, knowing that they knew at the time that the bullies and gang masters were leading them down the wrong path.
It also makes me very annoyed for the reputation of the mother of parliaments. What must the rest of the world think when they see and hear this bunch of lying cunts behaving like this?
And as for the details of the budget....what, well just what!
Very funny, Mr C, but comparing Balls to children is an insult. My own children are much better behaved that most MPs and if they weren't I'd sling them in their room until they learnt.
Agree. Would like the clip where blinky says 'So what' when told we have the highest level of taxation. That's one CCHQ should use in their next advert...
Balls, an odious little man who will never be prime minister, more likely locked up as a nonce.
His 'wife', is she really a woman? The archetype of all stupid socialist harraiden women. Nothing that comes out of her mouth means anything. So stupid you could put her in the Encyclopedia Britannica under 'stupid' and everyone would instantly understand what was meant.
I take solace that the hun are prosecuting an 80 year old for his Nazi Socialist past. This bunch of cunts will hopefully have their day in the sun, at the end of a rope.
Blimey... Blinky is looking more like Porky pig these days. I don't know about his career developing but his waist line and double chin is expanding faster the Chancellors borrowing requirements.
Balls looks like the boy loathed by his classmates who clambers his way to power just to get his own back,He is what he was always going to be.I have no interest in him but towing him behind a tractor through pigshit might be fun.
What you really want is the bit where Blinky's response to Cameron, pointing out that we now have the highest tax burden ever, is an astonishing "So what?". Blinking asrehole.
That bit is in the full cameron response, which is rather good and is on the bbc website now.
Cameron trussed him up so tight his eyes almost came out of his sockets - So that's the end of Blinkies chances of being PM - what a twat. - schoolboy Brown trying to make out he wasn't listening by chatting during Cameron's speech - who's he trying to kid - miserable unelected fraud he is - now we're all paying for his incompetence.
And if Iain Dale wants to know why Guido gets more traffic, perhaps he shouldn't keep pissing off for hour and a half to two hour breaks on Budget Day.
So that's it Blinky - you'll be a regular feature on YOU TUBE for ever and a day showing the World how to be a twat in one easy lesson - suggest next time Cameron is on you keep your stupid mouth shut - you're too easy to shaft - to cap off a landmark day for you it was a pleasure to watch your stupid wife being made to look a fool on Newsnight - get back to working on your joint expenses claims while you can.
The £40 billion or so of these mortgages are held by Granite in a discretionary trust, principally to the benefit of ‘Downs Syndrome North East’; a registered charity ref: 1096003. As Paul Murphy points out in the FT on 21st February 2008, the Granite’s beneficial ownership is evidenced by Law Debenture as follows:
‘The entire share capital of Holdings (i.e. Granite) is held on trust…. for the benefit of one or more charities…‘any profits received by Holdings ….will be paid for the benefit of Down’s Syndrome North East Association UK …’
The charity itself seems to be unaware of this largesse though and have issued a statement saying that:
‘We are investigating why our charity appears to have been named as a beneficiary of a trust without our consent’. They go on to say: ‘We have definitely not received any money from Northern Rock or affiliated companies, except for a one off donation from a staff collection in 2001.’
Would Guido (or his legion of smart type readers) care to examine whether the two words "Tax Evasion" come to the fore, its bad enough they use a Charity as a front without telling them but having the front to STEAL £40 billion is a little too much even for the incomptetent two-bit snake oil salesman that are Brown & Darling.
he'd be rubbing his hands on a forcourt selling second hand motors.
Not so fast, Ratsniffer 9:15. The modest motor trade re-sellers are doing a splendid job of squeezing every last ounce of utility out of resources before the cars end up burnt-out on a verge in Warrington.
UK Ltd would be in a perkier position if we were able to get on and sell things legitimately, instead of curdling our brains by working out how to set up the Winchester in a shed in a legal format where a gentleman can still light-up. We think we may be able to do it as we are not a private club, nor does money change hands, but our associates are looking in to the details as to how one forms a gang. We may seek to be recognized as a prison - a very short-term prison - as we think this would give inmates a great excuse for not getting back to 'er indoors until the sentence had been served.
Business itself is hardly worth doing as all we seem to do is keep an army of government inspectors in the manner to which they should never have been allowed to become accustomed. An honest spiv - someone who identifies your need and attempts to fulfil it by supplying a HokiKoki knockoff at somewhat inflated prices - would be infinitely preferrable to the organ donors we are lumbered with, since they don't even consider that our needs count.
Cameron was not good, he was not even very good. He was utterly sublime in all respects. As good as perfect as it is possible to be.
I was so impressed that I had to watch it twice, ( the whole speech that is ) just to see if I could indeed fine even the slightest fault either in content or presentation.
What could an even half conservative find to fault?
If Cameron has a fault at all, it is that he simply does not get on the box enough to sock it to them, where it hurts, far more often.
But having said that it could be well argued that quality often is reduced by quantity, and the election could still be two years away. So its best not to bore people with the sound of your own voice. Save as much as possible for the election campaign, YOU KNOW IT MAKES SENSE.
Even signs that the BBC are coming round to something resembling critical analysis of the governing power. Whatever next?
The Driech Director had been scribbling most of the night by candle light to make the railways profit and loss figures on sodor , and give them to Alistair (the eyebrow motion fitted engine) to send around sodor. "och shit shit shit" said the Driech Director as he grumpily paced around no10 waiting room."I can an noo get these figures to work, we have used too much coal and water and owe bills everywhere"
Alistair was building quite some steam "just give me the script ill dull it down so no one gives a toss, they will soon forget"
The Driech Director was a bit less grumpy and gave the accounts to Alistair to tell the rest of sodor.
"toot toot" thomas pipped "somthing wrong Alistair?" for thomas knew that the coal merchant was bankrupt because the Driech Director hadnt paid his bill.
"well you see Thomas its about coal , we are well prepared to weather the storm known as the coal crunch, its not the Driech Directors fault and it will all get better next year" said Alistair
"oh" said Thomas , "but hasnt the Driech Director been giving coal away to all his friends on the quiet so they dipose the fat controller ,who we all miss so much" ,"perhaps thats where its all gone ?"
"so what" slputtered ed (the mentally defiecent engine) who had been in the sidings dropping his clinker at thomas's question.
Thomas nearly bust his boiler with laughter at ed's out burst.
The Driech Director was so concerned that Ed's words would be sent around sodor , that he spoke through the speaker to have Hansard edited to say "so weak"
if Ed's words got round sodor ,the Driech Director would be in the papers as being the utter incompetant communist liar , that so many residents were now hearing rumors of .
"Toot Toot" said thomas cheerily his livery gleaming in the sun as he set off ,his chimney puffing the sound "what a twat , what a twat , what a twat". Thomas felt good, really good, that yet another myth about the Driech Director and his corrupt lying co horts had been shown to the general public.
next episode : Ed gets decomissioned and Alistair gets booed in the city and by the tree hugger lobby.
Right. I only do males who can achieve a single-handed circumnavigation of the nearest lamp-post. Although on Friday nights I may be inclined to introduce an element of flexibility, if the potential candidate can locate the back seat of my Primera without the aid of Twatnav.
Balls have just publically finished off all hope of future political greatness, Brown will be celebrating tonight as his biggest rival is now dead in the water.
NuLab trying to spin Ball's "So what!" comment as either "So weak" or "So wet". Unfortunately/Fortunately(depending on your point of view) Hansard recorded it as "So What!"
We all owe Balls a vote of thanks for letting slip exactly what Labour's true views are regarding tax.
What should really worry Balls is the fact that half the front bench were laughing at his humiliation. The closer you know him, the more you hate him, it seems.
As for McBean, his contrived insousciance is so obvious it simply marks him out as an even bigger weirdo than we had him down for...
As I predicted yesterday, Hansard this morning shows Ed Balls as not saying "So what", but then you should bear in mind that whoever speaks the words is allowed to change any "mistakes" in the record or even to reflect what he meant to say - how else could any of John Prescott's speeches ever have been reported and still made sense.
Hansard reports the exchange thus:
"The Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families (Ed Balls): So weak!
Mr. Cameron: “So what?” says the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families. I know he wants to be Chancellor so badly it hurts. I have to tell him that another Budget like the one we have just heard and he will not have to wait very long."
I take no pleasure from this. That our country is being run by such a complete bunch of utter, utter cunts makes me want to weep. And sadly I am really not yet convinced that Cameron & co are any better ...
" I fucking hate that Balls, almost as much as I hate his cunt of a wife."
She has a cunt? That must be news to the Blinkster, I always had him down as a back door man. Still, those doctors in Morocco can do marvellous things nowadays so I'm told, though they might have given her a pair of tits at the same time. Maybe they can afford that when they sell the house we have bought for them.
If you look closely it seems to me that Balls'y is saying "So weak".
Cameron's genius is to to take him to task for something he didn't say. "So What" makes him look callous. In the much the same way that the the press misquote of "Crisis, what crisis" defined a government, Cameron has found a similar moment and played it for all it is worth.
Fantastic!!! Haven't laughed so much since can't remember when... That oaf balls and his horrible wife, like many other of their party, - Patricia Hewitt springs immediately to mind - just prove that labour voters would vote for a paper bag if it had 'labour' on it.

In years to come, there will be a shade of pink in the Dulux colour chart called:
"Balls' embarrassment Pink"
Even his bloody ears were glowing!
Watch carefully and you'll see that even Alan Johnson and Hazel Blears find it funny.
Time to re-plan the premiership strategy, Ballsup!
Can anyone lipread what Blinky said?
Balls is claiming - and BBC reporting - that he actually said "so weak" not "so what". Is there any way to prove what he did say? Did not the microphones pick up what he said even if it doesn't come across clearly on the broadcast?
Blinky has the real look of the playground bully, bloated, red-faced - but why expect more, he's spent his entire adult life as the bumboy for that grinning, twitching, pig-ignorant, snivelling bag of shit in No 10. Presumably he was showing off to these two tubs of lard on his on his left. That Hazel Blears has a right gut on her eh? - look at that roll of flab! It's a pound to a pinch of shit they're both sponsored by Holland's pies.
A whole row of ugly cunts.
I would love to be a wordsmith, someone who could convey one's feelings without having to resort to the language of the gutter. Unfortunately I am a thick northern twat so bollocks to it.
That fuckwit Balls is a cunt, well done Mr Call me Dave for making him look one!
Love it!
Well thats blinkys career plan down the toilet!
for such an expensively educated person he is total fuckwit and his wife...yuk! like a boy in a skirt.
That clip should be on every tory broadcast.
When I was a child we didn't have a minister and the world was a better place. There was a minister of education who did nothing very much while teachers just got on with their jobs. Try to imagine RAB Butler or Sir Edward Boyle heckling the leader of the opposition. It's a sad indication of how low Parliament has sunk, dragged down by Labour as usual.
It coming up,"We're sorry this video is no longer available"- onbviously the Government have even managed to censor Utube
It's gawn :-((.
at 20:41.... where has the video clip gone ????
"We're sorry, this video is no longer available"
vid is broken
this is coming up as "Video no longer available" [on my PC] ?!?
Youtube Ate My Video.
Am re-loading..
Thanks for this, I've watched it over and over again, I fucking hate that Balls, almost as much as I hate his cunt of a wife.
It worked for me.
Balls' reply and Dave's response ought to be on posters, and T shirts.
Balls seems to have done very well out of various 'allowances', perhaps a bit too well at the taxpayers' expense. The 'so what' moment should be his undoing. It highlights NuLab's snouts in the trough, done nothing wrong mentality to a tee.

Very funny, Mr C, but comparing Balls to children is an insult. My own children are much better behaved that most MPs and if they weren't I'd sling them in their room until they learnt.
Guido,
You're being called for on CenterRight to do the video of "So what" which he claims was "So weak" - can you step in?
Agree. Would like the clip where blinky says 'So what' when told we have the highest level of taxation. That's one CCHQ should use in their next advert...
Balls, an odious little man who will never be prime minister, more likely locked up as a nonce.

Brown, Balls and Darling, three such charmless, useless cunts they couldn't get fucked on a Friday night in Newcastle.
Loathsome cretins the lot of them.
Blimey... Blinky is looking more like Porky pig these days. I don't know about his career developing but his waist line and double chin is expanding faster the Chancellors borrowing requirements.
BBD 10.21 Hey Hey Hey, leave Newcastle out of it. It's an insult to Geordie lasses. They do have standards y'know.
Watching Gordo's squirming and snickering during David Cameron's speech, you would think that he had a dildo stuck up his arse.
Balls looks like the boy loathed by his classmates who clambers his way to power just to get his own back,He is what he was always going to be.I have no interest in him but towing him behind a tractor through pigshit might be fun.

Is it you stupid, tedious cunts?
While those who can lower taxation, lower interest rates, all you can do is raise taxes.
Same old stupid communist economics.
You have fucked it up and everyone knows it, even the BBC.
Balls triggers my gaydar as much as Bliar did. Brown disguises it better than either of them, tho the mask slips badly every now and then.
Those that can, do.
Those that can't, become New Liebour politicians.
I believe 'Scratcher' Balls actually said "So wet", referring to the PM's crotch area.

I did not shout "So what!". Gordon did. It just looks like that because he had his hand up my arse working my gob. Utter shite.

thomas has good day:
The Driech Director had been scribbling most of the night by candle light to make the railways profit and loss figures on sodor , and give them to Alistair (the eyebrow motion fitted engine) to send around sodor.
"och shit shit shit" said the Driech Director as he grumpily paced around no10 waiting room."I can an noo get these figures to work, we have used too much coal and water and owe bills everywhere"
Alistair was building quite some steam "just give me the script ill dull it down so no one gives a toss, they will soon forget"
The Driech Director was a bit less grumpy and gave the accounts to Alistair to tell the rest of sodor.
"toot toot" thomas pipped "somthing wrong Alistair?" for thomas knew that the coal merchant was bankrupt because the Driech Director hadnt paid his bill.
"well you see Thomas its about coal , we are well prepared to weather the storm known as the coal crunch, its not the Driech Directors fault and it will all get better next year" said Alistair
"oh" said Thomas , "but hasnt the Driech Director been giving coal away to all his friends on the quiet so they dipose the fat controller ,who we all miss so much" ,"perhaps thats where its all gone ?"
"so what" slputtered ed (the mentally defiecent engine) who had been in the sidings dropping his clinker at thomas's question.
Thomas nearly bust his boiler with laughter at ed's out burst.
The Driech Director was so concerned that Ed's words would be sent around sodor , that he spoke through the speaker to have Hansard edited to say "so weak"
if Ed's words got round sodor ,the Driech Director would be in the papers as being the utter incompetant communist liar , that so many residents were now hearing rumors of .
"Toot Toot" said thomas cheerily his livery gleaming in the sun as he set off ,his chimney puffing the sound "what a twat , what a twat , what a twat". Thomas felt good, really good, that yet another myth about the Driech Director and his corrupt lying co horts had been shown to the general public.
next episode : Ed gets decomissioned and Alistair gets booed in the city and by the tree hugger lobby.

Right. I only do males who can achieve a single-handed circumnavigation of the nearest lamp-post. Although on Friday nights I may be inclined to introduce an element of flexibility, if the potential candidate can locate the back seat of my Primera without the aid of Twatnav.

Check your receipts, bad boy.

Can't seem to find it...
Was it under £25?
Brown's performance throughout Cameron's speech was pathetic and embarrassing. He giggled, wriggled, smirked, and squirmed throughout it ...
Misery has no manners, hence Gordon Brown's lack of manners.
Balls have just publically finished off all hope of future political greatness, Brown will be celebrating tonight as his biggest rival is now dead in the water.
Balls up!
NuLab trying to spin Ball's "So what!" comment as either "So weak" or "So wet". Unfortunately/Fortunately(depending on your point of view) Hansard recorded it as "So What!"
We all owe Balls a vote of thanks for letting slip exactly what Labour's true views are regarding tax.
What should really worry Balls is the fact that half the front bench were laughing at his humiliation. The closer you know him, the more you hate him, it seems.
As for McBean, his contrived insousciance is so obvious it simply marks him out as an even bigger weirdo than we had him down for...
Never mind Balls' face when he was humilated at The Budget - let's see a video of his ugly mug when he discovers "Yvette" is actually "Ian".
As I predicted yesterday, Hansard this morning shows Ed Balls as not saying "So what", but then you should bear in mind that whoever speaks the words is allowed to change any "mistakes" in the record or even to reflect what he meant to say - how else could any of John Prescott's speeches ever have been reported and still made sense.
Hansard reports the exchange thus:
"The Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families (Ed Balls): So weak!
Mr. Cameron: “So what?” says the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families. I know he wants to be Chancellor so badly it hurts. I have to tell him that another Budget like the one we have just heard and he will not have to wait very long."
Blimey, both Balla and Ms Balls have put on some weight, have't they?
Must be due to their "food allowance". Well, if it's free you may as well eat it, right? :)
Mmm - hysterical. How on earth did this blog fail to chart in the Observer top 50? Remarkable.
Having watched the video I believe that Ed Balls DID say "So weak".
But hey - so what ?
A minor injustice compared to what this government has done to our country.
I take no pleasure from this. That our country is being run by such a complete bunch of utter, utter cunts makes me want to weep. And sadly I am really not yet convinced that Cameron & co are any better ...
" I fucking hate that Balls, almost as much as I hate his cunt of a wife."
She has a cunt? That must be news to the Blinkster, I always had him down as a back door man. Still, those doctors in Morocco can do marvellous things nowadays so I'm told, though they might have given her a pair of tits at the same time. Maybe they can afford that when they sell the house we have bought for them.
If you look closely it seems to me that Balls'y is saying "So weak".
Cameron's genius is to to take him to task for something he didn't say. "So What" makes him look callous. In the much the same way that the the press misquote of "Crisis, what crisis" defined a government, Cameron has found a similar moment and played it for all it is worth.
Genius politics....:-)
Just watched Cameron's full response, and I must say I was very impressed. Brown couldn't do anything except pull even more ridiculous faces.
And this is the man who's suppose to lead the country out of these hard time!
I listened very hard several times and it is absolutely clear that Balls-Up said: "So What?"
When challenged by David Cameron Balls-Up lied and pretended he had really said: "So Weak."
But why would he have said: "So Weak?" Such a remark would not have been in context.
Something like: "Cameron's weak" or "You are weak" would have been in context. But Balls-Up said neither. Balls-Up said: "So What?"
He is a prat and a lying prat at that. doubly dammed.
sorry guido outer
but its definitely "so what" i was listening live and heard it , no ifs no buts , question was raised again in business questions .
i know my Ts from Ks evn if its from a champagne socialist.
nice try nu labour are fucked
God I hate that cunt balls.
I think its brilliant Guido, I must of watched at least 10 times now and still find it immense fun.
Fantastic!!! Haven't laughed so much since can't remember when...
That oaf balls and his horrible wife, like many other of their party, - Patricia Hewitt springs immediately to mind - just prove that labour voters would vote for a paper bag if it had 'labour' on it.
