Edward McMillan-Scott: Lib Dems’ reluctant recruit
Posted on 12. Mar, 2010 by OHC in International, United Kingdom
Edward McMillan-Scott. We’ve known that he is a snivelling Europhile for a while. His position of power is a demonstration of the EU’s contempt for democracy. So his defection to the so-called ‘Liberal’ so-called ‘Democrats’ is fitting.

The True Statesman

This afternoon’s session of Prime Minister’s Questions was, for me, the best of the year so far. David Cameron was undoubtedly on peak form as he ravaged Labour’s complete disregard toward the Armed Forces and had to spell out for Gordon Brown that defence spending under the Conservative government decreased as, “Under the Conservatives, we won the Cold War!”
James Who?!
Posted on 09. Mar, 2010 by RK in United Kingdom
When National Executive members of Conservative Future have to ask that question, you know said ‘James Cutts’ doesn’t speak for the Conservative Party or CF in anyway. Why, therefore has Mr. Cutts been commenting on the Grauniad’s latest hatchet job attempt at Pickles and the Young Britons’ Foundation? (more…)
Look who follows the Guardian

By the reaction of some twats Twitterers, you’d have thought that the public was outraged at the Young Britons’ Foundation. In conjunction with all the squillions Labour took from the unions Ashcroft, the Guardian’s ‘exposé’ of YBF was destined to change the election. (more…)
Guardian FAIL… epically.

Late last night, lefty conspirators hit that “SEND” button on their Macbooks (Ed: Don’t YOU use a Macbook?) and went to the presses on this deeply embarrassing expose on the Young Britons’ Foundation- Britain’s young free-market training organisation. The problem is, it wasn’t embarrassing for YBF. It was a yet another non-story in the long line of Grauniad pseudo-journalistic bias.
The Unseen ‘Blair Book’ Cover Art
Posted on 04. Mar, 2010 by RK in Other, United Kingdom
So TB’s new book is coming out in September, eh? Nope, not Tory Bear but rather his mentor the former Prime Minister for Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Yep, Tony Blair’s, “The Journey” will be gracing bookshelves (Ed: and possible bargain buckets) in the year to come. KeepRightOnline has seen secret unseen cover art that never made Blair’s approval; check it out:
Jokes aside, it’ll certainly be an interesting read- I’m especially looking forward to the ‘Brokeback’ moments with Brown, followed by the vase/phone throwing moments towards the end of the relationship.
“I have tried to write a book which describes the human as much as the political dimensions of life as prime minister,” he said.
Right. But why ‘The Journey’? He’s just a small town girl?

Grauniad mash up – Pre #springforum lulz.
Posted on 01. Mar, 2010 by RK in United Kingdom
A round up of spring forum follows later today, I promise. I’d like to look at everyone else’s impressions first and so far, I guess you could say ’so good’. I like to think I get around quite a bit at these things so I’m gonna offer some insights into the various areas of Spring Forum, from atmosphere of the general delegation, the buzz around the bar, Hannan’s Tea Party, impressions of the Shad-Cab, the press area, journos and more. (Ed: And the speech, don’t forget the speech!) But that’ll take a while to articulate so in the mean time I decided to parody the front page of The Grauniad this morning. Who’s more unsure about who?
Update: Also, we’ve Wordled David Cameron’s speech from Spring Forum – seems his emphasis is on people, country, think and going. In contrast, Gordon Brown’s speech for Welsh Conference this weekend concentrates heavily on people, Wales, Labour, jobs and government. Make of it what you will…

Labour’s failures: the video DC almost showed?
Posted on 01. Mar, 2010 by OHC in United Kingdom
Before David Cameron’s speech at Spring Forum, a video was screened on Labour’s failures since coming to power: broken society, broken economy, broken politics. But we have on “reliable” “sources” that the party was considering using this video as the warm-up instead. (more…)
