Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Or a fan of Blackpool.

I hope Cameron has nailed all the papers from the present coalition to the floor for when he is kicked out.

They should make interesting reading and examination and ? "enquiry" in a few years time.

Mind it might be interesting to see what Maggie's government hid under the label missing!

Piers Morgan brands David Cameron 'a self-serving, soulless weasel' in damning column on Andy Coulson's phone hacking verdict



Hell hath no fury like a spurned Piers Morgan.




The former broadcaster has hit out at David Cameron, after the Prime Minister apologised for hiring Andy Coulson, following his conviction over the phone-hacking scandal.

Morgan’s friend, Rebekah Brooks, and her husband, Charlie, were cleared of all charges made against them.

Coulson was found guilty of conspiring to hack phones between 2000 and 2006. Cameron rushed to speak out against his former spin doctor before he was even sentenced on Friday 4 July to 18 months in prison, saying that it “was the wrong decision” to employ him.

“Cameron threw Andy to the wolves within seconds of the hacking conviction being announced,” he said.


“He didn’t even wait for the other verdicts to come in, thus threatening the whole legal process, and potentially prejudicing the outcome of the remaining decisions.

“Our great leader made no effort to contact Andy during his excruciatingly humiliating and painful ordeal.

“And he couldn’t find a single word of support for him in his darkest hour. Instead, he chose to deliberately pour petrol on to the flames of Andy’s immolation.

“That’s not the behaviour of a friend, it’s the behaviour of a self-serving, politically motivated, soulless weasel.”



“As for the likes of His Holiness Hugh Grant, and Saint Steve Coogan – the whole concept of these two sleazy, hooker-loving wastrels preaching morals and ethics to the British press is so utterly preposterous that words, temporarily, fail me,” he wrote in a column for the Daily Mail.

Well, I think Piers can forget his knighthood for this year, but what he wrote about Cameron rings true.

When is he going to do his exposure of Nigel?

Oooooooooooooops!



PS. From the same site, do check out the 'doomed bear' who has a 'bucket thingy' stuck on its head and gets cleverly rescued by the lumberjack truck driver:

what would happen if a member of the royal family was accused

There have been rumours in the past that a male member of the Royal family forced himself on a male servant.

Nothing would happen.

Probably got a large pay off.

eu countries releasing prisoners if they leave the country and no one speaking out .

Unfortunately for you, it looks like a referendum would choose to stay in the EU. There have been quite a few polls on the matter and all show the likely result would be NO to leaving.

Israel have some men with balls good on them .and do not hide behind babies and old women .hamas are cowards

I go out ever night and do meet a lot of people and they all want out

I am afraid that the people you meet are not a representative sample.

Ohhhhhhh yes they are who gave you the right to play God Hays!!!!!!!!!.

Just because youve seen a Tory backed poll dont presume the people of this country think the same.

Personaly in the last 2 years ive got to the position where I dont believe a thing this present Tory government or its backers say. They are cheats and liars.

No doubt Mays 2 enquirys will find nothing aswel.

DWP Spends £4.8m on Outside Consultants as Bill Quadruples

Iain Duncan Smith is in charge of the Department for Work and Pensions(Reuters)
The Department for Work and Pensions almost quadrupled the amount it spent on consultants between 2014 and 2013, according to an analysis of official figures by IBTimes UK.

The ministry’s records revealed that the total cost of non-payroll consultants/consultancy hit £4.8m ($8.2m, €6m) in May 2014, up from £1.29m a year before.

The increase represents a 273% hike in the amount spent on outsider advice for the DWP, which is the largest government department in the UK with a 96,008 strong workforce.

However, the official figures failed to disclose how many non-payroll consultants/consultancies worked for the ministry.

Meawhile, the data also revealed that the grand total cost for non-payroll and payroll workers for Iain Duncan Smith’s department dropped by more than £15.2m over the same period.

The records showed that the DWP’s total payout was more than £212m in May 2014, down from £227m in May 2013.

“It’s good to see that the total staff bill is being trimmed, as savings desperately need to be made,” Jonathan Isaby, chief executive of the TaxPayers’ Alliance, told IBTimes UK.

“However, the increase in the bill for consultants is a cause for concern for taxpayers.

“Consultants are sometimes necessary, but it’s crucial that the department retains staff with the necessary expertise to cut out a lot of the big fees.”

The Department for Work and Pensions had not responded to a request for comment at the time of publication.

The figures follow a warning from the National Audit Office that the DWP could overpay contractors of one of its flagship welfare reforms by £25m in bonuses due to contract “flaws”.

The independent parliamentary body said that The Work Programme, which provides support, work experience and training for up to two years to help benefit claimants find and stay in work, is not working as the Department for Work and Pensions intended it to, with regard to incentive payments.

“Flaws in contracts and performance measures have led to unnecessary and avoidable costs,” a report from the NAO said.

“The DWP may have paid contractors £11m in the period to March 2014 for performance they may not have actually achieved and could overpay contractors £25m over the remainder of the programme unless it changes its approach.”

But the NAO said that the ministry has recognised where it has needed to make changes to contracts.

A DWP spokesperson said: “The Work Programme is helping more people than any previous employment programme and has already helped half a million people start a job and 300,000 into lasting work.

“The NAO says that we’ve already saved more than £40m over and above any previous employment programme, and that we’ll save £450m on benefits compared with any scheme that has gone before.”
