Tony Blair’s worried
Tony Blair has criticised people who held parties to “celebrate” the death of Baroness Thatcher, saying they were in “pretty poor taste”.
The former Labour prime minister urged critics of his Conservative predecessor to “show some respect”.
Don’t worry Tony, your time will come. Once you die there will be parties too. And don’t fucking talk about respect, when you’re the architect of an illegal, immoral, unnecessary war that killed well over a million peoples, you wanker.
“You’re a nasty piece of work, aren’t you”
Sandra would’ve approved: Eddie Mair fillets Boris Johnson, showing the real Boris hiding behind his carefully nurtured image of the goodnatured buffoon.
Teaching the unemployed to wipe themselves
What they teach you in England if you have to go on one of those mandatory re-education classes for the unemployed: how to wipe your bum.
What Blair, Brown, Clegg and Cameron have wrought
Teenagers with no prospects, no money, no job, education or place to go to other than the night buses, but they’re the lucky ones:
Official statistics on bussing don’t seem to exist, despite a lot of research. However, I did speak to two children’s charities that were very aware of the extreme measures exiled teenagers were taking to stay off the street, particularly at night. “There are so many teenagers in peril,†said one charity worker, “that the ones who have an Oyster card, a jacket, even a place to go for a few hours in the day to change or sleep won’t be seen as a priority by the government, social workers or indeed charities.â€
That’s the Britain that New Labour, the LibDems and Tories have build.
