Topical Rantings

It has been a while...

In the space of a week formula 2 driver Henry Surtees dies after being hit on the head by a rogue tyre... and formula 1's Felipa Massa got hit on the head by debris causes him to lose consciousness and crash... At first I was really against closed cockpit vehicles, it would just be a completely different sport. But two freak accidents in a week? Once is an occurence, Twice is notable, Three times is a pattern... Fingers crossed Max Mosley is next to get hit on the head by a broken car.

Moving on!

Going to keep this one short, by election results are just more evidence people want Gorgon out.

Stop having ago at Jeremy Clarkson everytime he calls Gordon Brown a cunt, its fact for fuck sake.

Also in the news?
Katie Price and Peter Andre? fuck off.
Kerry Katona and Mark nobody? fuck off.
Michael Jacksons doctor? fuck off.
Swine flu? fuck off

The list goes on...

On the note of swine flu, read a witty comment the other day: (this applies to uni students!)
"freshers week will be like a festival to aid the spread of swine flu" scarily correct me thinks.

Final note. Can we have a little riot outside Downing Street until the unelect fat scottish one resigns.

Pretty please :-]

Are MPs just con artists now?

Sneaky Bastard much?

"Mr Mackay, the MP for Bracknell in Berkshire, is the first person to lose his job over the MPs’ expenses scandal.

He is married to Julie Kirkbride, who represents Bromsgrove in Worcestershire.

Mr Mackay has used his second homes allowance to claim more than £1,000 a month in mortgage interest payments on their joint flat near Westminster.

However, his wife used her Additional Costs Allowance to claim over £900 a month on paying off the home loan for their family home near her constituency.

This means they effectively had no main home but two second homes – and were using public funds to pay for both of them."

I bet they thought that was a real clever scam they had going. Thank fuck he has resigned.

Cunt.

Update: Relating this to my other post about how everything they've done are just silly little mistakes; Morley has referred to this as an 'anomaly'. If you say so...

MP's Expenses: "Mistakes"

Does the pig remind anyone else of a certain unelected prime minister?

What is really taking the piss with this expenses bullshit is the "mistakes" that all of the MP's are making. The one that is really making me laugh is Elliot Fucking Morley... Mr Morley was claiming £800 a month for mortgage payments for his house in Scunthorpe. The "mistake" in this instance is that the mortgage was fully repaid in March 2006?!
Claiming a mistake of £16,000?!

If anyone else had mistakenly swindled their employer out of £16,000 he would be fired on the spot for being an incompetent fucking idiot!!

Anything regarding Phil Woolas just pisses me off, claiming for £210.31 of reciepts which include women's shoes, bibs and nail polish. AND THEN his defense is that "well I could have claimed £400 but I didn't". How does that make his claim just or right? It doesn't, end of. Even if the women's shoes were for him, I still don't see how dressing up as a fugly woman is imperitive to his job at home or in his constituency.

At the end of the day, if anyone who was not an MP 'mistakenly' claimed THOUSANDS of £££s from their employer they would be forced to pay it back and have their employment swiftly terminated.
