I think it’s pretty clear to one and all that this is all they have left, and the GE campaign will be very unpleasant

But they must know that they're only appealing to a rump. They'll struggle to get 30% of voters on side with blatant cuntery. Are they hoping that in the privacy of the polling booth, the reticence of the majority of UK voters to look like bastards will fall away?

Bear in mind that anyone one nation/not a rabid loon was ousted, so there is actually a not insignificant possibility that some of them genuinely believe that (a) the silent majority really do exist and (b) that they will ride to their rescue if they tilt rightwards enough, because this alleged huge body of untapped voters are both too shy to make their views known and yet also the absolute worst cunts imaginable.

In light of Paul Scully’s recent pronouncement, those of you non-Londoners who might nonetheless be contemplating a visit may find this useful.

I understand Penge is another.

Reminds me of Robert Rankin's "Allocated Zones" (marked in the London A-Z), the locations of which were only known to the Black Order, London's Legion of Cab Knights. Which is why no two cab journeys are ever the same.

For the first time I've ever I looked up the APPG working definition of Islamophobia. I don't get this "blasphemy law" bollocks. Not least because it isn't a law.

I thought it went out some time in the 80s or 90s. I know Mary Shitehouse tried to use it to shut down the Gay News in the 70s.

Sounds like an English twist to the Bielfeld Conspiracy question.

Once the international lizard Marxists implement their five minute cities, you won't be allowed to visit anywhere.

Another no-go area.

Now known as Mornington's Fertile Crescent and firmly controlled by "them".

If only we'd heeded Humphrey Lyttleton's warnings.

Shame on you.

Crescent? Isn’t that an Islamic symbol?

I had a landlord with an office opposite that station. As a naive country boy, newly arrived in the Big Smoke, I assumed that he was a respectable business person. Turned out he was a cunt who's business model included keeping tenants' deposits without justifiable reason and then stalling any small claims cases until the system got bored and let them time out.
Did I mention that he was a cunt? Just in case there is any misunderstanding on the matter, he was a cunt. A thieving cunt.

You sir, have excellent ears, pick up on things only dogs usually can.

Mmmm, not sure if that’s a good thing or not

From the people who brought us Liz Truss, the shocking revelation that they're terrified of the Muslamics (but they're not racist).

Isn't Lachlan in charge now? More likely that the plan is to get out of newspapers in England altogether.

On the positive side, around 20% of current Tory members also think their own party are shitbags, are likely to fall away entirely as the rump move ever rightward, and as the rest of them die off and the party finds its offerings increasingly repellant to the mainstream their chances of a comeback for some considerable length of time grow ever smaller as their member income and donations dry up and they are hijacked by ever-worse subgroups and entryists.

It has been a dreadful decade or so, but thanks to the coldness and awkwardness of May, the hubris and corruption of Johnson, the outright idiocy and ineptitude of Truss and the charmless, disconnected mediocrity of Sunak, together with the unswerving inability shown by their ministers, the Conservative Party may soon be embellishing their Wikipedia entry with a ‘dissolved’ date to accompany their founding one.

Just another cunt doing what cunts do

A Conservative MP is trying to overturn a government-backed plan to make abducting cats a criminal offence in England and Northern Ireland.

Sir Christopher Chope has proposed changes to the Pet Abduction Bill initially restricting it to dogs.

He says it should only cover cats when another new law requiring them to be microchipped has come into effect.

His amendments would be unlikely to pass a vote because the government is supporting the legislation.

But they will need time to be debated in the House of Commons, which could make it harder for an offence relating to either animal to be passed into law before the general election...

A cat is still someone's property, whether it's microchipped or not.

[Youngian]

Silly old sod certainly has form

Sir Christopher said he supported the ban but had been objecting to parliamentary procedure.
He has also used the same mechanism to block other pieces of legislation including bills to offer protection orders for children at risk of female genital mutilation, to pardon the World War Two codebreaker Alan Turing and to ban wild animals in circuses.
