Churchill may have been pissed half the time but he didn't lay down orders stopping others from drinking. Therein lies the BIG difference.

It's a Herman Miller Aaron chair, and I stand corrected, you can get the cheaper models for as little as £619, although they cost up to £900+.

So he's fond of the bottle.

Long may it continue.

The more he drinks, the more he shows himself to be the utter cunt that he is.

The chair he is sitting on costs £1000. The Mod refit filled HQ with them. They are probably civil service standard issue by now.

there is a difference. ken is a public employee, drinking what looks to be either whisky or urine during a taxpayer funded meeting.
anon 1.32, you must be a spastic.
try to think of some new cliches to throw around. you are a very boring retard indeed.

Drinking Urine? Your taking the piss!

Ken is not a public employee he is an elected politician. That means he can die of old age, resign or we vote him out. Ask a grown up to explain the difference - pictures might help.

Spastic and retard? Wow seventies retro abuse! Hang-on I'll get my flares on. As you posted after lunch on Friday are you 'tired and emotional', or cannot find the shift key and spell clichés?

Facts

Winston Churchill was pissed for most of World War II and he beat Hitler who was tea-total.

Pitt the younger got through thousands of bottles of booze a year while PM - Good on him!

William Hague boasted of his drinking ability.

Better an honest drunk than a dishonest puritan every time.

Stick to Ken's real wrong doing Guido and it ain't drinking!

I am off down rubber dub dub for some tiddly winks me old china.

2008-02-22T19:33:00.000Z

The NuLiebour 'crackdown' on alcohol abuse doesnt seem to stretch to livingslime and all the pissed up MPs swigging subsidised booze?
Hmmm? The slimy cunt can sit in front of the London great&good pissed out of his tiny evil little mind and does anybody haul him out? It reminds me of Kennedy and his drink problem, everyone knew even the press but the limpdums lied through their teeth right up untill the drunken cunt resigned!
Funny how its fine for MPs to lie and cheat and drink to excess but if any taxpayer serf in a normal job tried it they would be out on their ear, quicktime?
One rule for the Westminster scum and one for the serfs eh?
The enemy class(political elite)must be pissing themselves laughing at us serfs and how they can shit all over us AND get away with it AND fill their boots with free money at the same time!
Ruled by a crooked elite who are selling us into foreign ownership while they are promised even more booty.
May they rot in hell and may God have mercy on their black souls because we will show them none.

Obviously, he has been studying the drinking habits of his newts for far too long and he is now as pissed as one.

tamburlaine, I think the Irish who have a more thoroughgoing intimacy with the issue use the best euphemism "a lttle enthusiastic for the drink".

You may go about calling Red Ken an alcoholic, dipso, sot, whatever, all true, but no calling of a spade a spade in Londonistan, you will be most cruelly misunderstood.

I wouldn't care if he were a raging, steaming, charles-hoovering Leo with a penchant for doing an Oaten with transvestites.

Not if he were honest and good at his job.

But who cares? If this is what it takes to boot him out then go for it Mr. F. I'm past caring how he's ejected.

2008-02-22T13:33:00.000Z

total crap, all he's doing is leaning slightly forwards and back. just about everyone does this when they have to sit and converse for a long period, pissed or no. it isn't like he's falling off the side of the chair having wet himself.

Incidentally - why are so many people in the press cagey about using the word ALCOHOLIC? in the US there isn't the same reticence about calling a spade a spade as far as booze addiction goes. over here people go on about 'liking his drink' etc etc. If it's 8am and the only thing you can think of is whisky then you are a certified alkie, no questions.

Dispatches showed Livingstone drinking a large glass of whisky at a council meeting at 10am.

He claimed it was for "medical purposes" like all the old alkies say.
