Gordon Brown has confirmed that he is going to resign as Labour leader, and hence Prime Minister. Thank fuck for that. It doesn’t really matter what happens next. He destroyed the economy and by doing so caused massive problems. What a relief! The dictator is no more! More comment from me later, of course! News story link in title.

It appears a lot of Lib Dem activists are vehemently anti-Conservative. If that is the case, then screw them. David Cameron should state that a deal is off and try to form a minority government. Although I am starting to think maybe the best outcome would be for Gordon Brown to form a government, thereby completely screwing things up so those that voted him and Labour can experience properly, the damage that he has done to the country and the economy. And then the Conservatives can come to the rescue in a couple of years time. If that is the … Continued
This is clearly the biggest argument for Scottish independence that there has ever been. If the results of the English constituencies are taken on their own, then there is a clear result – a Conservative majority. Only 1 MP in Scotland will be Conservative. So, why not let Scotland be its own country? It has a parliament and sets much of its laws anyway, whilst still influencing ours. What have the Scottish ever done for the English? They gave us Gordon Brown. The Royal Bank of Scotland. Haggis. Bagpipes. Erm… This isn’t an anti-Scottish rant, because I have been to … Continued
I give up. I was hoping that right now I would have a huge smile on my face, and my fears about the future would be put to rest, and the Conservatives under David Cameron would now in a position to take up government to sort the mess out. But although they will have more MPs and the highest percentage of the vote, they are still not in government. Labour are desperately clinging on. Gordon Brown’s regime reminds me of many others around the world – Robert Mugabe is a good example (granted less murderous), but in psychology at least, … Continued
Originally when I about 10 years old, it was just because I preferred the colour blue. Now it is because I want the economy to be repaired. I want a bright, prosperous future for the country I live in, and love. I fully believe that Labour ruined the country in the 1970’s (3 days a week of electricity, rubbish piled in streets, the country was bankrupt and known as the “sick-man of Europe”). The Conservatives under Margaret Thatcher rescued the country in the 1980’s and made the country prosperous and proud once more. Sure, there were some bad ideas like … Continued
Apologies for the lack of posts over the last few days. I haven’t been feeling quite myself, but I think I am back on form now. On my sickness evaluation form at work, I put down that I had a stomach bug. But upon evaluation, realistically I think it might more accurately be something like election fatigue. I’ve watched so much politics recently that I’ve actually started to like television again! I have been waiting for many a year for a government, and a leader, to come along who could inspire, and get the country to work. I believe that … Continued
Ok here is one for you. The election looks likely to return more Conservative MPs than Labour or Liberal Democrats (not definite of course but lets assume for now). If the Liberal Democrats are not willing to support a minority Conservative government and would rather support a Labour government, what is stopping the Conservatives governing with Labour? After all, Nick Clegg stated in the first debate that they are sounding more and more like each other. Both sides of course would have conditions. Conservatives would without doubt want rid of Gordon Brown (and much of Labour probably do too!). Labour … Continued
When I open a door for you, I expect a thank you. When I open two doors for you, I also expect a thank you. One will do for both doors. No thank you and you can fuck right off.
Well my ipod (yes I call it an ipod as most people don’t know what a Creative Zen is so I have to explain unless I call it an ipod) finally died yesterday after 2 years of heavy use. So not only did I have to do part of the train journey back to Reading yesterday without music, I had to go to work this morning without music and in place I had banal conversations around me on the bus. Tonight I will have to go food shopping without music. How will I survive? Bear in mind that I probably … Continued
Some people may question why an Economist-reading, upper-class Tory-wannabe who devotes most of his life to the search of the perfect party (nightclub or political!) would support a working-class football team like Hull City. Well I was born there. But I think there is a little bit more than that. Coming from a pretty down-trodden place like Hull, there is a certain element of satisfaction and enjoyment taken from misery, especially when it is your own. Not in a personal way, but in the things around you, and nothing could really project a sense of misery more than supporting Hull … Continued
