Contracting saltire production to Asia ,
16 Nov 2008 in Community News
The row over the Scottish Government placing contracts in Asia for the production of Saltires has been illuminating. Makes you realise that the SNP is the only party which can never place contracts of any kind outside the country if there is a native company capable of delivering.
The clarifier here was that it was [...]

Moral compass? Gordon Brown? ,
16 Nov 2008 in Community News& Politics
Gordon Brown lost no time in conveying his feelings to the BBC on Russell Brand’s and Jonathan Ross’s competitive lapse of taste. Brand resigned. Ross was suspended. Taking a judgmental position, however, on the unimaginably awful life and death of Baby P is a different matter. Due process rules in this case. Brown may be [...]

It wasn’t Lewis who won, it was Bernie and it was Bernie doing the driving ,
03 Nov 2008 in 1
Before the off at Interlagos yesterday Martin Brundle asked Bernie Ecclestone, ardent milker of the cash cow he has made of Formula One, why it was that so many championships in recent years have come down to the last couple of races. Bernie kept a straight face and said that it was because the competition [...]

Jonathan Ross made a right mess of silly, needy Russell Brand ,
30 Oct 2008 in Communications& Community News& Social issues
Look - Jonathan Ross is the senior broadcaster, the iconic boundary-pusher, pretty much a cult hero to those newer to the industry. Russell Brand - and who, including himself, ever thought good judgment was an arrow in his quiver - was performing for an audience of one - Jonathan.
Watch the clip - you cannot [...]

‘An embalmed jelly baby’. Magic.

Well - now we know Brown and Darling just froze. Decisive? Don’t make me laugh. They’ve wasted billions. ,

What Mandy can do, Iceland can do. George Osborne played a dirty trick on Peter Mandelson - and look where it landed him. Now Iceland’s got it’s own back for our Government (sic - sick if you like) using anti-terrorist law to grab UK assets of Iceland banks.
Today, thanks to the online Iceland Review [...]

Is this Steve Fossett’s biggest gamble - a real life changing adventure? ,
03 Oct 2008 in Community News
Think of the psychology of the man. Look at the picture. Consider the oddities. An ace pilot on a weekend with a friend in Nevada takes a small plane up for a quick recce to do with his next adventure. He goes missing. Nothing of any kind is found even after prolonged and complex searches [...]

Unrest in Labour’s women ministers? They’re useless anyway. Let them go. ,
29 Sep 2008 in Community News& Politics
Why can’t we be more intelligent about assessing the impact of resigning ministers? It means something if the good ones go. But why furrow the brow for the chaff?
Current Housing Minister Caroline Flint is said to have had to be persuaded not to resign by the so-called ‘ginger chipmunk’, Hazel Blears. Transport Secretary, Ruth Kelly [...]

Gordon and the Monkey King ,
24 Sep 2008 in Community News& Media& Politics
The most fabulous political photo for yonks was in Tuesday’s Daily Mail (23rd September) - centre spread, pages 8 - 9. It was an unforgettable moment after David Miliband’s speech to the Labour Party Conference on Monday. Apparently dismissing his own ambitions, he’d conjured an adolescent crush on his leader’s achievements (abroad, not at home!) [...]

Does anybody else think he looks like the Invisible Man fresh out of the bandages?
