Snouts in the Trough

The rich Mr. Clegg has launched an attack on Britain’s supposed tax dodgers. Britain’s worst tax-dodgers are our corrupt thieving MPs who flip their homes, lie about their main homes and use other dirty tricks to enrich themselves at our expense. I suggest that the hypocritical Mr. Clegg looks at Danny Alexander’s imaginative use of his [...]

At the moment thousands of disgusting, junk-food addicted, blubbery fat pigs are demanding that the NHS pays millions so that they can have gastric band operations (rather than using the money for cancer patients) because the fatties can’t be bothered to improve their diet or do some exercise. But there is already evidence that some years [...]

Amongst frequent travellers, the old joke is that Alitalia stands for ‘Always Late In Take-off, Always Late In Arrival’. However, the Pope’s recent arrival and departure on a special Alitalia flight were both on time. Now that truly is a miracle.

As the Guardianistas, the BBC and their ilk bleat on about Global Warming or Climate Change or whatever they call it this week, they never dare mention the real cause of the devastation of our environment – population growth. It is the world’s rapidly increasing population that is causing deforestation, decimation of fish stocks, environmental destruction and rising [...]

As the overpaid eurocrats splutter with indignation over France’s expulsion of beggars and thieves, we Brits can only look on with envious admiration.

Apparently Boy George thinks that paying someone several years salary will save money. It might, George, but not for a few years. [...]

Some MPs’ committee or other has just expressed astonishment at the Ministry of Defence’s (MoD’s) recidivist and expensive bungling on a PFI contract for in-flight refuelling aircraft. Perhaps if our useless, corrupt MPs had read Plundering the Public Sector published in 2006 and Squandered published in 2008, they wouldn’t be so surprised at the total and [...]

So, ex-Nazi, now Pope arrives in Britain. What shall we call this odious creature? Pope Buggerer the XVI? Pope Coverer-up the XVI? Pope F–k Young Boys the XVI? Or Just Pope Pederast the XVI? Of course, this Pope may not have buggered and raped lots of young boys like his many priests have all over [...]

Most of us are probably watching with trepidation the upcoming battle between the government and the unions over spending cuts. Yet this battle is completely unnecessary. If they had brains. ministers could achieve their cuts without the loss of a single front-line job. The solution is to put all public-sector executives. managers and administrators who do [...]
