But look at all the Brits that will be going to the former Soviet Union, gobbling up ALL their jobs! Er.. Why did the UK join the EU, again?:confused:

well, it seemed a good idea at the time....


and even now, it's still better than not being in. I guess we just got tired of being 'airstrip one' .....

Our Home Office have slipped up again. Seems that a list of 500 of the nastier criminals (murderers, peadophiles, drug dealers,etc) caught and sentenced abroad has been lying around gathering dust on a desk somewhere instead of having the information fed into the national computer records.

So a number of these ne'er-do-wells have managed to work their way back into the home community and have been cleared to take jobs in the places they would least be suitable. Not to worry, I'm sure they won't do anything unsavoury...

Our Tone is not quite getting to grips with this green campaigning thingy.

Seems he wants to take long-distance flights and encourage others to do so to. I mean, hey, it's only 1.5% of the world's green-house gases anyway, and, well, we in the UK only contribute 2% as a nation anyway. So, well, it really can't make that much difference, can it..? .

Of course not, Tony....

Did anyone catch the story over Christmas about the Miami flight that overshot the runway on landing?

It was a BA 747, with none other than TB on board, on his way to spend a freebie holiday at BeeGee Robin Gibb's Miami Beach mansion.

Seems the pilot couldn't see the taxiway lights very clearly and rolled over them. Nobody hurt though, and it was rumoured he was found humming that old BeeGee's number 'The lights all went down in Miami, Florida...'

CF, sounds as if your government is as screwed up as ours.

Sounds like Tony is getting used to being on vacation. That is a skill which will come in handy.

Sadly only when it's free... not sure how much of a regular event it will be when he has to pay. I guess we can expect to see him offering his services as a guest speaker in places like the Maldives, Seychelles, Phuket and so on once he's out of the day job.

Hopefully that will be very soon

It seems that my favourite plonker Tony McNulty knew all about the issues behind the 500 criminals list of names that haven't been recorded (see entry 138 above). He failed to pass on what he knew to the Home Secretary though. Silly boy. Can't say I'm surprised, the guy is so busy waffling that I suspect he has no idea about anything he is supposed to do or be responsible for. Let alone remember what it is he should be doing. So ask him to take care of something and you might as well work out at the same time the various excuses you'll need when it becomes known it hasn't been done.

I'm a tiny bit afraid to ask, but I truly don't know:

Does anyone in Britain take George Galloway seriously?

OK, and how about NOW?

It's complicated...

These days, not so much really.

The beat goes on and they'd love trump.
