Dizzy Got Cross Too

"This whole "Michal Kaminski is a jew hating gay bashing Neo-Nazi baby eater" stuff is patently absurd. The guy was 15 and for two years he was in an illegal underground anti-Communist movement in a totalitarian state. What that party does now is as irrelevant as the Pope being in the Hitler Youth at the age of 14."

Shock! Top Lib Dem is a Socialist

Well

he's

hardly liberal...

How's this for "freedom"?

Alex Salmond is really beginning to let the all things to all Scots mask slip and has shown his ruthless authoritarian lefty streak shine through by approving

this dependency encouraging move

by the property snatcher, the "snapper":

Nicola Sturgeon, the Scottish health minister, said right to buy has “had its day” and blamed a shortage of affordable rented housing in Scotland for her decision to scrap it.

In a speech to the SNP conference in Inverness, she said the move would mean 18,000 fewer council and social housing tenants buying their homes over the next decade.

But the Conservatives said it was a sad day for thousands of Scots who want to better themselves by realising their dream of home ownership.

Since its introduction by Margaret Thatcher’s Government in 1980, the right-to-buy policy has proved hugely popular in Scotland.

About 450,000 families have taken advantage of the scheme to purchase their homes at a discounted rate from their local council or social landlord.

Freedom for who exactly?

You probably missed it...

TB wouldn't expect you to read The Observer, but

this profile

of the legend that is Quentin Letts is not to be missed.

Lad.

Labour's Evil Friends

TB is getting sick to the back teeth of Labour, and their

stooges

, attempting to create scandal around who the tories sit with in the European Parliament. The audacity that they have in these attacks can quickly be exposed with Google and rather appropriately given today’s attempt at journalism from the Observer – Wikipedia.

The Labour Party sit with the

European Socialists

grouping (PES), a bunch of nuts lefties that make Blair and Brown look slightly to the left of Hannan. Labour can try have a half-hearted smear attempt at the tory groupings, but it is a national embarrassment that the governing party of the day consort with communists, terrorists, murderers, anti-semites and 9/11 deniers.

Oh you didn’t know this? Well it’s not like it’s reported by the main stream media.

Dan Hamilton

wrote a great piece a few months ago and TB would like to share some of what he exposed. Lets just have a quick peek at a couple of Labour’s friends in Europe shall we...

First up we have former Italian Communist Party officer holder and Josef Fritzel look alike

Giulietto Chiesa

. A member of the Communist Party until 1991 Chiesa has since made a name for himself not only blaming Russia’s invasion of Georgia on European countries but more significantly as an extremely vocal 9/11 denier. His documentary Zero, as well as various essays and TV appearances have suggested that the US government was behind the planning and execution of the attacks. This lunatic is now the official European spokesman for the

9/11 Truth Movement

.

Who else are close allies of the Labour Party in Europe?

How about

Proinsias De Rossa

, ever heard of him? Well he is a murdering terrorist who is linked to the killing of six British Policemen. This former IRA man originally joined the Communist and Allies group before transferring to the PES and taking an active role in the drafting of the European Constitution. What do you expect from a Labour Party who didn’t bat and eyelid when their guest Martin McGuinness was allowed to stroll around the Grand Hotel in Brighton almost 25 years to the day the IRA had murdered so many there.

So many loons to choose from, but TB’s absolute favourite scumbag has to be

Andrzej Zbigniew Lepper

the leader of the Polish Self-Defence of the Republic Party, who Labour sit hand in hand with in Europe.

Where to start with their leader and the sleaze, the criminal activities and the general insanity of the man. Another former communist, he has done time for assault and even demanded sexual favours for jobs in his office. Famed for throwing hecklers onto piles of manure

according to the BBC

, the "chorus of his party song is: This land is your land, this land is my land, we won't let anyone punch us in the face.”

Perhaps most worrying is Lepper’s honorary degrees from the anti-Semitic Interregional Academy of Personnel Management. To give you an idea where these guys are coming from, their honorary professor is the white supremest

David Duke

.

So next time you hear some Labour tool having a go at tory allies, tell them to go take a long hard look in the mirror and then behind their own shoulders.

The hypocrisy is sickening.


UPDATE 19.11: Not one Labour hack has been able to successfully defend this, or at least have the decency to condemn the facts. Kerry McCarthy, an official spokesman for the Labour Party online resorted to name calling instead of defending her MEPs. Says a lot. Arguments have ranged from the surreal - apparently it's fine as they weren't sort out, to laughable from those who should know better - it's ok because they are pro-Lisbon.

Maybe time to ditch the mud strategy guys.

Non Story of the Day - Part 2

Keep Right Online have taken an extremely blunt axe to the Guardian story TB wrote about this morning.

They point to

this edit

by an anonymous, unregistered user, which removed an accusation that Kaminski was a member of the National Revival of Poland. The problem is that said edit was actually Wikipedia policy, under the very strict policy towards

b

iographies of living people

, which require sources for all controversial issues to avoid libelling the subject. The statement was unsourced, and, thus, to quote Wikipedia policy, ’should be removed immediately and without waiting for discussion’. An anonymous user followed Wikipedia policy: what a scandal!

So, in the short, the Observer thinks the Conservatives have appointed two people to whitewash Kaminski’s page, despite those two editors doing nothing except undoing each other’s work. Please, not even CCHQ is that hapless. And, what’s more, there are now five paragraphs in the Wikipedia article now dedicated to the accusations against him! If anything, the Observer’s been trying to blackwash Kaminski’s reputation from day one, and this is just another desperate attempt at that.

Read the rest

And so lets leave it at that shall we.

Non Story of the Day

There is something fishy about

The Observer's claims

that Michael Kaminski's Wikipedia page was altered. They, ever slavish to their government masters, have come out guns blazing accusing the tories of a "systematic cover up". What utter tosh. This is hardly Watergate is it.

The story provides no evidence of it being a tory computer at all, and when the only person you can find to comment from Labour is the

disgraced mouse clicker

Chris Bryant, then you must realise your attack probably doesn't have legs. For Bryant, of underpants fame, to be questioning peoples use of the internet will no doubt have Observer readers choking into their herbal teas this morning.

So a staff member changed a Wikipedia page from a computer somewhere in Parliament, and the story appears oh so subtly in Observer of all places.

COVER UP! LIES! CORRUPTION! SCANDAL!

Pull the other one.

Who is HHC?

After a delightful week in Manchester, a return to a very full email inbox. My desk, normally a paragon of organisation, has been awash with paper. I’m not even sure what half of it is about. Will we ever return to peaceful routine, tucked anonymously out of sight in our Euro-fortress again? With Lisbon now a reality, I fear that may be a thing of the past... for the next few months at least. Surely the spotlight is now firmly upon us?

However, the day to day Euro-train does rumble on. Helmer is doing excellent work as spokesman for the Employment committee – more people than ever before are now calling it the unemployment committee (indeed, I was chatting to an MEP just the other day who admitted to referring to the committee as such during a meeting, albeit inadvertently). As often noted amongst the delegation, the committee does more to put people out of work than it ever does to promote employment, so why not call a spade a spade? In this capacity, therefore, Helmer has taken very well to promoting greater understanding of the committee’s work. I understand from his assistant that the overarching plan is to encourage the secretariat to take on the new title, thus bringing greater transparency to European proceedings. I wish them luck in their endeavour.

Meanwhile, your humble correspondent has had a bit of a brush with authority – or at least with the rumour mill that trundles alongside authority this week. I hear that the question on everyone’s lips: “who is Hermione H-C?” was uttered during the closed delegation meeting this week. Mind you, I heard this from another assistant, who heard it from another assistant, who was rather savagely accused by yet another assistant of being Hermione (to which she said ‘guess again’). The fact that a Tory Bear resides in my office for all to see appears to have escaped everyone’s attention. But to those who would threaten and cajole others into disclosing any information they have, I would say this: I may not be at the centre of the grapevine – bitchy gossip about my assistant colleagues simply is not of interest to me - but I do hear certain things that you might not like disclosed on a public website. I shall say no more... unless further provoked, of course.

And so we roll around far too soon to another Strasbourg week. When will all this travel come grinding to a close? Not before Christmas, I fear, but at least in December we have the added bonus of Christmas fair. What is life, if not a series of moments anticipated?

She's scary when she's cross!

Biscuit-gate

TB's laptop is playing up so it's Blackberry blogging until tonight it seems. Last night in Cambridge was good fun, with some great questions. Quote of the evening had to be from the bar afterwards though:

TB: So hear you guys have a campaign day tomorrow?
Anon: Yeah I'm not going, hunting instead.

Fair enough.

The story that TB seems to have missed by going off the radar has to be the latest episode of Gordon losing the biscuit. Quite literally this time. Repeatedly asked by a web chat audience on MumsNet, our rational and completely in control leader happily chatted about everything, from saving the world, to his eyesight but refused again and again to say what his favourite biscuit is. What the hell? Of all the questions to bounce, why this one? What does Brown have against biscuits?

Shortbread? Scottish oat cakes?

Maybe he's more of a crackers kinda guy.

Twitch Forks and Burning Tworches

When the Twitterati smell blood, they don't let go. Since the Carter Ruck owning this week, confidence has grown and whatever seems to upset the masses spreads incredibly quickly. Mob rule has gone online. BURN THE WITCH. The targets today are the

TFL rager

and

Jan Moir

. Should TFL guy be fired? Yes - he seems like an utter arse, but then what do you expect from Underground staff? TB has seen a lot worse.

The story nicely demonstrated a point TB often makes about armed citizens breaking down the walls of reporting news. From video camera to blog to twitter to front page of the Standard. In house communications for various companies must be in a quite a panic about how to deal with Twitter storms, just as they took huge steps to avoid getting "blogged".



As for Jan Moir? Well the article was ridiculous, but so was the reaction to it. If you don't agree with what someone says, it doesn't mean they should be fired for saying it. By all means complain if you think she has broken the rules, but to try silence her... really? Bad things happen when a society goes down that path. Pack it in and don't buy the Mail if you don't like it.

It's possible to overplay the role of Twitter, but it is then again lethal for some to underestimate it's power.

Bear on the Road

TB is taking part in the

Conservative Future Student Life

tours this year and will be touring around the country visiting university branches for a Question Time style panel. This year's tour kicks off tonight with a flying visit to Cambridge.

Do come along to the Cambridge Union tonight at 7pm if you are nearby.

Wheelan and Mandy Have a Little Chat

"Mr. Djanogly: To ask the Minister of State, Department for Business, Innovation and Skills what matters were discussed at the meeting between the Secretary of State and Charlie Whelan on 29 January 2009. [

292178

]

Mr. McFadden: My noble Friend the Secretary of State met Mr. Charlie Whelan on 15 January (not on 29 January) in the course of his official duties. They discussed employment issues."

Ha, of course they did. Bet they talked about the weather too.

Whose job was being discussed TB wonders?

He's not the Messiah

He's just a weapon of the highest order. Isn't Alex Salmond taking this second coming of the William Wallace thing a little too far? It seems he now brings his very own star with him:

What a pecker.

The South Park Treatment

Sorry to bombard with videos but TB is at that hugging a pillow, saying "Why why!?", stage a brutal hangover and isn't really capable of much engagement beyond a) watch and b) laugh. You know a story has cemented itself in history when South Park cover it. Their utter rinsing of the Acorn hooker scandal, that proved that two junior activists can severely embarrass the President of the United States, is fantastic. The Alt Con, fast becoming a daily must read, has captured it
