A musical tribute to Gordon Brown's legacy to us all

This deserves a wider audience so pass it on! (Thanks to Subrosa - I pinch everything from her!)

Another nail in Labour's coffin!

According to Andrew Neather, a former adviser to Tony Blair, Jack Straw and David Blunkett, Labour wanted mass immigration to make the UK more multicultural.

If this report is correct, it is conclusive proof that Labour has created the conditions for the increasing (albeit, small) rise in the BNP's support in some parts of the UK.

You reap what you sow.

Prezza's people's flats are their castles

You have to give John Prescott some credit for trying to help Labour get a fourth term in office but his current effort is unlikely to resonate with anyone other than the most dyed-in-the-wool folk who think the prospects of a Conservative government will spell the end of civilisation as we know it.

Part of his criticism is countered by the response that Grant Shapps was reported to have made in THIS report:

"Interviewed in the London section of (last Sunday's) Politics Show Shapps addressed some of the issues. He said right at the start that he envisaged more social housing being built under a Conservative government, as part of an increase in house-building across the board. So how would this expansion come about?

Shapps confirmed that he would dispense with centrally-set targets for home-building and replace them with incentives. He said that threatening the tenure security enjoyed by current social housing occupants is "the last thing we want to do," but added that he "hadn't even got into" the matter of changing conditions of tenure for newcomers to that sector in the future...

So, has Prezza (see his house in Hull pictured above) just got his knickers in a twist?

Would the Irish lie to you?

Maybe - maybe not!

Labour governments always leave a mess that the Conservatives have to clear up

Corporal Ainsworth still doesn't know whether he is doing a good job!

Labour MP talks twaddle!

If this is the best that the fresh-faced, banana-eating, upper-class twit David Miliband can offer then God help this country and the Labour Party.

Tory MP talks dirty!

It is reported that Manchester City Council are publishing a sex guide for the over-50s. This news comes just before the Conservative Party's annual conference is due to be held in the city.

Anne Widdecombe has made the following comment reported on Conservative Home:

"If someone hasn't learnt how to have sex by the time they have reached 50 then a booklet is certainly not going to help."

"Alistair Cameron" was Blair's spin doctor!

I think Adam Boulton might have been a little tired and emotional when he recorded this piece to camera!

Gathering winter fuel!

I had to laugh when Gordon Brown started the list of Labour's achievements off with the winter fuel allowance.

Soon after I passed my 60th birthday earlier in July this year I received a letter from the government saying that I was entitled to £125 for the coming winter. Fantastic, I thought! It's about time I got something back after 40 years of paying taxes.

Then it occurred to me that there must be an army of civil servants sitting waiting to pay out this type of "benefit" to millions of people who reach the right age but who do not necessarily need it. And yet we hear frequently about all those elderly people who are not receiving the benefits to which they are entitled. Billions of pounds go unclaimed we are told. Why doesn't the system just pay them?

For your information, I will not be sending back my winter fuel allowance but neither will I be claiming (or using) a free bus pass. My local (Liberal) council has had to make 80 employees redundant because - they say - they have not been given the full costs of the free bus pass by central government.
