<snippage>How do some of these arsewipes get elected?

Upward management and arselickery of the selection committees. Standard senior management tactics in fact.

No, that is how they get selected. They get elected by the ignorant fuckwit public who, for example, could never vote red (or blue). Could never vote for him because of what his grandfather did. Could never vote for her as MP for BumfuckNowhere because of what her colleague the MP for somewhere the other side of the country said about X on Eastenders.

Nepotism gets you selected. Fuckwittery gets you elected.

Royston Smith

[mrcharly-YHT]

The ultimate bully, Donald Trump.

What a complete arse.

It is worse than arsery. Attempting to use global financial blackmail to influence a UN vote. That is simply, utterly disgusting.

[ian]

Jeez, they're 'taking names.' That's the sort thing my our form teacher did. When we were eight. It's as terrifying now as it was then.

Was it just me or did she have a look on her face that screamed RESCUE ME?

Gove and Cheese sort of go together.....

Is there a British cheese which is slimy and stinky and generally odious?

We termed Lymeswold 'slime mould' when I was a Penniless Student Oafette.

Stinking Bishop.

Let's all bash the Bishop.

Dim memories of a bit in Private Eye many years ago. 
"The answers to our Christmas Quiz. (d) Lymeswold is the odd one out. All the rest are cheeses."

[hatler]

Lymeswold was the marketing strategy by which British Milk (or whatever it was called) intended to reduce its then overly stocked fat mountain/lake.

BRITISH blue cheese withdrawn over Listeria concerns.

Worrying that report does not state Listeria can cause DETH in unfortunate immunosuppressed folk.

And not forgetting that he has been prosecuted for driving without insurance, which is hard to believe since we're constantly being told that all motorists pay road tax and insurance

Damian Green.

What toppled Damian Green was the sleazy Damian Green and will remain being the sleazy Damian Green regardless of any right wing media and sympathetic Tory colleagues views otherwise.

Perhaps the Tories should get their house and pecadillos under control before going on wild witch hunts.  Whistleblowing is in fact supposed to be respected, not disparaged. 

Tories: The party of blame and shame.

[ian]

To be fair though, former police officers shouldn't be sharing information on investigations, closed or ongoing, under any circumstances. That affects us all. Especially those of us with hard drives filled with unicorn filth. I don't know who us is.

Mind you, other than that, ha ha. Then some more ha ha. That'll hopefully be the last time he splashes out on a new computer in the HoC.

[Polar Bear]

For almost anybody else having porn on your office computer would mean a P45.   Why should MP's be unreasonably protected?  Why hasn't he lost his job and why isn't there a by election?  Nearly a further decade of MP''s pay and privilege instead.

One set of rules for the plebs... 

[ian]

That's really between him and his 'employers' – my point was that it isn't and wasn't a police matter.

[Polar Bear]

Under normal circumstances I would agree but given that politicians appear to enjoy enhanced levels of job and other protection I cannot find any sympathy.  If as part of an investigation by the police your work laptop was found to be riddled with porn and this was communicated to your employer, do you really believe that there would be no consequences for you?

The public purse has rewarded him handsomely for his employers complicity.

[ian]

Well, the police shouldn't be communicating that to my employer. I'm not breaking any law. Besides, any scut present on my hard drive was put there by the Porn Fairy or is a legitimate piece of Thought Leadership. Tidy hair is, of course, important in such matters. No one wants to see a poorly groomed unicorn.

Aren't we his employer?

[ElyDave]

Surely it becomes a matter of what his employer's policy is re use of the company laptop? Have his contstituents who would be his employer's (surely?), told him that legal pron is a floggingsacking offence?

In Ian's case, is there unicorn related fine print?

Green was forced to resign because he lied about whether he had been told about the porn find by the police not because of the porn .
 He denied that he had been told at the time but this was proven to be untrue.

Royston Smith is a bag 'o shite.  I've known him for years, and wouldn't trust a word the evil little weasel said.  His policies and those of the Government also led to my redundancy in 2011, so I'm not inclined to be generous to him.  And how, exactly, did it benefit the taxpayers of Southampton, to pay to make me redundant after 19 years service, and then to pay twice my salary to an outside organisation to provide less than half the services I provided.  Super-twat indeed.

Lewis Hamilton.

His "Apology" seemed so perfect that it could only have been computer generated!

[Polar Bear]

Smartphone in arse moment.

What's the betting that he appears clad in a sarong in the not too distant future?

[Mr Larrington]

In a sane society, Lewis Hamilton would be forced to do his next Grand Prix dressed as Princess Peach from Mario Kart
