Who will defend the High Court Three? Welcome to British mobocracy. Pitchforks provided.
- 8 Nov 2016
What dreadful little lickspittles to the Mail and Telegraph this government has become. You would have thought that over the weekend May and Truss would have had paused for reflection and whilst lauding a free press condemned them for personal attacks on the judiciary. Not a b...
Who will stop this vile abuse of the judges? Where is the Lord Chancellor who should be defending the rule of law?
- 5 Nov 2016
The government would be very foolish indeed to pick a fight with the judges. It undermines the rule of law. Parliament makes the law and judges interpret it. They are impartial, fair and incorruptible. They do not enter the political arena, nor should they. They are the guard...
Gove is up to his old tricks with the eyes of Caligula and the mercy of Nero he wants to destroy Carney
- 22 Oct 2016
Poor Michael Gove. I’m getting rather worried about him. I expect to see him sporting a pony tail and a gold earring and buzzing through the streets of Westminster on a Harley Davidson or perhaps drifting into Spearmint Rhino for some ersatz flattery. I am not a psychiatrist, ...
May must learn the lessons of history and bring Hammond into her inner circle. If not this government will be a smoking wreck within months
- 19 Oct 2016
If you want a playful analogy of the government’s position on Brexit you could do no better than revisit that wonderful movie, ‘who framed Roger Rabbit’. Half the characters are real people the rest are loony tune cartoon characters. Somehow they become interchangeable. A craz...
May has until the IDS of March to come up with a credible Brexit plan then she must allow Parliament to be sovereign and vote
- 14 Oct 2016
Well, the great ship of state sails on at full speed ahead. The captain is in her chair but her navigators are nowhere to be seen. But she has instructions from her shareholders set a course to an unknown destination known as the promised land. Nobody has worked out where it i...
Breaking news.....Hunt gets a dressing down by May
- 30 Sep 2016
Theresa May’s unblinking eyes surveyed the gothic gloom of her study. She is seated in a steel replica of the Game of Thrones throne, generously donated by the Hinduja brothers. She is dressed entirely in black, resembling an Ann Robinson without the Botox. On her lap is a gro...
Primark's knob, Street Porter's shame & my sacandalous behaviour on a train
- 25 Sep 2016
I haven’t made up my mind which is more shocking, Brooks Primark trying to copywrite photos of his todger or Janet Street Porter having to pay a former lover to give back a Polaroid of her performing a ‘sex act’. For those not in the know this is Fleetstreeteese for a blow jo...
May's humour is no laughing matter and what happens if the infinite improbability drive is engaged
- 17 Sep 2016
I wonder how long it will be before Tory backbenchers will be whispering over large gins how much they miss David Cameron. He was one of those rare beasts; a politician comfortable in his own skin. Like Blair he commanded the Chamber with a mixture of arrogance and charm. Some...
Fire up the Austen Healey May wants to drive us back to the fifties. But I expect she'll swap it for a Dodge
- 11 Sep 2016
I still can’t make up my mind why May has decided to launch a policy so flawed and so politically and socially divisive as resurrecting grammar schools. I have an infallible test for whether a policy is a turkey or not. Is Peter Hitchens in favour of it? Not only is the Hitch ...
The words of wisdom of loopy Loathesome who is destroying political satire
- 3 Sep 2016
I am not for the first time a little confused. The press are obsessed with squabbling Brexiteers Johnson, Davis and Fox which is all rather dull and predictable. Why should anyone get worked up about civil servants finding space for Mr Davis’s department in Penge? What is all ...
