The fourth Reich?

By scrubber | Published: November 16, 2011
The Daily Mail, in classic “Hun-baiting” fashion has had a pop at the Germans today. Entitled “Europe speaks German now!“, it centres on comments made by one Volker Kauder who is one of Angela Merkel’s closest allies. He is, in fact, the parliamentary leader of Merkel’s CDU party and he made the comments in a [...]

Lest we forget: 2 minutes is a pittance of time…

My thanks to the Filthy Engineer for this one, which I found both moving and ire-raising. And the twat in the supermarket? Right after the two minutes was up, I’d have smacked him in the head with a big Clue-stick… Wikio Wikio

Armistice Day 2011

THE DEPT UNPAYABLE What have I given, Bold sailor on the sea? In earth or heaven, That you should die for me? What can I give, O soldier, leal and brave, Long as I live, To pay the life you gave? What tithe or part Can I return to thee, O stricken heart, That thou shouldst break for me? The wind of Death For you has slain life’s flowers, It withereth (God grant) all [...]

EU Referendum vote…

By scrubber | Published: October 28, 2011
I have a lot to say about this, none of it positive to Cameron and his acolytes, but as can be seen from the paucity of posts lately, no time to write it down. However, I can let Mr Farage say some of it for me: Wikio Wikio

Multi-culti, middle-class, left-wing, prickocracy

By scrubber | Published: July 5, 2011
Step forward the BBC and the Guardian. Yes! You! Pat Condell, no wallflower he, is really on form here (and a new word too). I challenge a Guardian-reader to listen all the way through and accept that he has some valid points… How apposite is that: “Prickocracy! Love it. Wikio Wikio

Is it Ed that’s the idiot, or is it the MSM? Or is it us?

By scrubber | Published: July 1, 2011
Earlier today I posed the question “Is Ed Miliband an idiot?“, and I did so in all sincerity, and not without a fair deal of amusement.

Is Ed Miliband an idiot?

By scrubber | Published: July 1, 2011
Sometimes, I just can’t believe my luck. This video is a gem! Just WTF is Ed Miliband on? How this man ever became Leader of the Labour Party, I will never know, and will never understand. Will the rest of the world ever take this clown seriously? I may be way off-base here, but reading between the [...]

Dave? Ed? It’s all the same to me, mate.

Sometimes, something delicious comes along when researching material for a blog. Here is one such, a cracker. The Independent has published a poll in which 2,000 punters were shown pictures of members of the Shadow Cabinet and asked to identify them. For your delectation I have copied the info over, identified the individuals concerned, and saved [...]

The Brussels Bunglers have no Plan B

By scrubber | Published: June 29, 2011
As the tragedy of Greek debt continues, the EU leaders, as can be seen in the following video, openly admit that there is no Plan B. Their only option, the only one they have considered and will consider, is another bail-out. This despite the fact that the previous one didn’t work (and nor will this [...]
