Makes me wonder, given their utter tediousness and predictability, maybe Littlejohn columns have now gone full ChatGPT.

Not a noted conservationist but Bozo and Carrie like to appear so.

Waaah waaah, person has opinions.

[Malcolm Armsteen]

Hmm.

The Victorians formulated Association Football to set moral and ethical standards in a society (or a sector of society) that they perceived to be semi-feral - the working classes. It stressed teamwork, hard work, adherence to a set of codified standards, fairness and the rule of the rule. Manly endeavour and working for the common good, look out for your team-mates. And no backchat.

If Mr Lineker (a seemingly articulate and intelligent man) learned his ethics there he did OK.

Unlike a septic example of a rancid profession like LJ.

If Lineker had a shred of self-awareness, he may have paused to consider his moral obligations before diving in with both feet.

oh the ironies is delicious littledong

In some areas, councils subsidise fuel bills of WFH employees. In some other areas, a handful of WFH employees have been caught moonlighting. Extrapolate this, and everyone homeworking is on the fiddle and stealing YOUR money. Some old and vaguely union-bashing examples from the glory days of Fleet Street apparently prove this. As ever, why is it that journalists always equate expenses with being on the fiddle?

Then some shit about jellyfish, and demands about Gary Lineker.

MAC, as ever.

Unions were outraged in the early 90s that the employer should come in your home. They also saw it as a scam to save money on office space and they were right that WFH is a bargain for firms even after compensating for the employee’s electricity costs.

Twice he uses mini-cabs as examples of illegality. I can't understand why.

[Youngian]

The press officer for Wealden district council you may recall sent Noel Edmonds into a Howard Beale* type meltdown on his consumer champion show Noel’s HQ for telling Edmonds to do one (“we don’t speak to entertainment shows”). As Littlejohn wouldn’t have even bothered to email the council to justify their expense claims, he wouldn’t have been told to fuck off. These claims of waste often turn out to be unspectacular for those of us who know what a divide sign on a calculator looks like.

Wealden Council, in East Sussex, which is run in coalition by the eco-maniacal Lib Dems and Greens, gave staff a staggering £245,644 in 'light and heat payments'.

*Reference to the film Network with Peter Finch.

[Andy McDandy]

Quite. Let's say that have 1000 employees - that would translate to about £250 each. Or about 2 months fuel bill.

I thought similar re his (what he must think is clever and subtle) attempt, to align jellyfish and sea slugs with forriners, and asylum seekers in boats

Proper binmen. Get back to the office. Lah-di-dah white collar workers. Lazy public services. Blah.

He’s now making up unconvincing anecdotes to pad out his word count.

OK, so this is anecdotal, but it has the ring of truth to it.

[soulboy]

Also making up his facts.

Somehow the idea that she would have to book a desk in advance doesn't seem to tally with the fact that Government departments are half empty most of the week

Johnson's amazing, the EU are evil, climate change is a myth, lefties are racist, and hur hur transgender.

Cunt.

Spot on article. Of course it's a witch hunt. Has been from the beginning. Harmans inquiry proved that. She publicly stated on X she would do everything to make him guilty before it even begun. She should never have been allowed to chair it. Especially as she had broken the law herself ,2 X in the past. He only got a pathetic fine for being given a piece of cake by his wife where he worked and lived. As for the lazy and lefty civil servants ,they did the most rule breaking. Whitehall is vast. Half the time Boris wasn't even there. Definitely a witch hunt and circus. This enquiry helps nobody . Just wasting a lot more taxpayers money.

[Rosvanian]

Particularly egregious cunt.

Top ten cunt for me, possibly even top 5.

[davidjay]

As usual, everything is about how the evil EU won't do exactly what we want them to, even though we don't want any dealings with them.
