A Day Out with the Donkey’s.
Who’d be a Sandwell borough council ratepayer? It’s an onerous condition. If you’re not having to pay to persecute elderly war widows, then you’re having to dig deep in your pocket

Legendary, isn’t it? Irish hospitality. When they’re down to their last slice of Soda bread, they’ll cut it in half and share it with you.
Except they’re way beyond their last slice of Soda bread.

Fiends, Homo’s, Councilmen!
I am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for opportunist hypocrisy in the history of our nation. 1 year ago, a great socialist,

Weee-ed!
Eric Pickles has offended overstretched public sector workers by asking them to care for taxpayers property.
Remember the pot plants that the Department for Communities and Local Government didn’t have? Then it

“But, soft! methinks I scent the mourning air; Brief let me be.”
There was a certain logic in the public display of grief when Princess Diana died. The Royal Family do represent something iconic to us.

The public school educated Ed Miliband believes that ‘the best of the country we love’ is represented by non-jobs in the public sector supporting those who contribute nothing to the economy.
Britain owes £876bn in total

No apologies at all for copying and pasting this priceless list of examples of public sector efficiency – even the union involved is sufficiently annoyed to have put it on their web site.
Sheesh!
Buried in amongst the scare stories of Armageddon in Japan, Libya, Syria, Yemen, and many points East, the Beeb has not forgotten its mandate to report the truly important news to local communities.

Much hyperbole in the media marshes today over the case of Jeremy Morlock, the US soldier who pleaded guilty to the ‘murders’ of three unarmed Afghan civilians. There is universal displeasure that he ‘only’ received 24 years

The Twins are silent so far this morning; sucking on their dummies as they try to work out whose piggy bank Daddy Osborne raided to avoid the inevitable tantrum when they pass the sweetie display.

A tad more on the question of the identity of Bin Mustapha i-Dentity.
Some time ago, American forces on the Syrian border came upon some documents which have subsequently been analysed by the experts at West

Anybody got any idea who he is? Where he is? What he stands for? How he feels about selling oil to Europe? Does he live in a cave? A house? Wife? Children?
We know the British

After the most hyped, leaked, and analysed budget in history, the climax is torporific……zzzzzzzz.

A couple of years ago, the EU, our Lords and Masters, were kind enough to announce that in future we were allowed to switch some of our own money from the biscuit tin marked ‘Structural Fund Programme’

Handbags are so last year. Time was when a £2,500 freebie Hermes handbag was enough to boost the fragile ego of fading celebrity. That badge of office appears to have fallen by the economic wayside.

The main stream media is positively drooling over the stuff. Decapitated bad guys. Blood stains on walls. Terrified women. Big bangs. All colour pictures from inside the critical care units.

On Sunday afternoon my neighbour was standing in his garden wearing dark glasses and waving his arms wildly, pointing at the sun and urging the boules players to take cover.
