Budget Day

By Richard | March 12, 2008

Should be Budgie Day. Darling was tweeting like a good ‘un. AND, it all went by y’all!!

On finishing his ‘budget’, did you see ‘ol GB aka BB aka MacPisspoor pat him on the shoulder? Bet you did not!! And that’s not all. The financial health of the nation is wrapped up in the health and safety of the nation! Am I crazy?? Nope. The budget as presented by Budgie Darling was aimed straight at the ~~heart~~компютри wallet of the drunks and anyone else who likes a drink!! So now we are controlling drinking through the wallet!! Ho B ho!! Maybe the Budgie and MacPisspoor are drinking too much!!

Do they really believe that 14p on a bottle or 55p on a bottle or anything on a bottle is going to stop excessive drinking? Obviously GB aka BB aka MacPisspoor has no idea about the real world. Once you or me or anyone has had half a dozen snifters, the price becomes irrelevant. Hang with the cost. Gimme the booze!! So why don’t they just tell the truth? It’s another ruse to raise money through taxes! FACT. Federation Against Complete Tossers.

Join us now. Become a drinker! Or buy a 4×4. Or Vote Lib Dem.

And do not forget the measures in place to stop us spending too much. Like Budgie and Co. Borrowing £38 Billion!! Yep! Thirty eight billion Pounds or 38 000 000 000 pounds. Circa £650 for every one of us in the UK.

Yebo!!

BBC

By Richard | March 11, 2008

They cannot count. They cannot speak English. They cannot report the news. They cannot produce decent programmes. They waste our money. They waste our time. Is there anything positive about this monster?

The astonishment shown by the reporters that someone could actually pick out a non-prime number from the sequence of the first 10 is astonishing in itself. In response to another report, somebody was actually able to define a quadratic equation. Wow.b.eee. And there are islamist militants? Noun describing noun? Hot on the heels of a report about the ~~falling~~ rising standards of English and general school results in the UK. Ho B Ho!! The whole BBC thing is a joke. A bad joke. The news reporting is nothing short of abysmal. There is not much news, more opinion. “And what do you think…” is a common question put to on the ground reporters. What do they THINK? WHAT DO THEY OBSERVE OR SEE OR WITNESS. NOT WHAT DO THEY THINK!! AND the leading question. It’s all over the BBBBC. Can they not ask a simple question with no inference as to the answer? Apparently not. They are a huge, B, JOKE. And the programming? Celeb this, reality that. Precious new good quality content. Mostly crap. And who gave them leave to employ families? From where did this guy Snow 3 (or is it 4) come? And the endless surveys. Why is a broadcaster conducting surveys? I do not need BBC surveys and what’s more I don’t care for them either. Full of leading questions no doubt. And after the rigging problems with Blue Peter, can we be sure the surveys are kosher? Mmmm.

Bah. And BAH. And BAH.

Get rid of the lot.

EU

By Richard | March 5, 2008

In truth, today has been a bad day. I could probably blog all night and be totally grumpy about anything and everything. Notwithstanding my personal state, the worst element of today was the EU vote in the Commons. And maybe BAD is a BAD word. It was not bad. It was worse. What’s that? AWbeeFUL. Cameron, apparent leader of the official opposition to HMG, almost hit the nail on the head in Prime Minister’s Questions. He stated to BB aka GB “He has lost his courage…” Lost??!! How can he lose something he never had? In fact, if GB has B….s then his name would be Ed and he would be in the cabinet in duplicity! Wot a bunch of plonkers.

And as to the Liberal Wetocrats, they still haven’t decided their policy on the EU despite being ardent pro-EU’ers. WOT? And so what now is the parliamentary situation?

Some Jock, name of Murphy (Joke!!) aka Min o’ EU defends the official government position. He says little but hey ho, is that unusual? He is ably assisted by another ~~Joke J~~ock called Connarty whose was totally indignant at the thought that his Euro Committee on the EU was anything other than committed to the EU rather than the UK. What a preposterous thought? And it is!

And now we are stuffed. Without a murmur, we have have GBH committed on the nation. To whom do we appeal?

Ask GB aka BB aka MacPisspoor (hint - lives in Number 10/11 DS?)

A Fine Society

By Richard | February 28, 2008

I hope some of you may have read my earlier rants on Gumbos. And today, the 28 Feb 2008, the Grand-daddy of all Gumbo nonsense came into land. Pity it wasn’t tomorrow, the 29th Feb because we could excuse it as being a once in a 4 year occurence. So wot wos it?

The Gumbos in charge of spying on the railway network have decided to fine themselves. Isn’t that fine? What complete and utter nonsense! The real truth of the matter is that the Gumbos have to justify their jobs. If they merely noted or took the guilty to task over the Network Rail cock-up at the start of this year, they may not be seen to be effective. No sweat. Just fine the guilty party. ie Network Rail. Except, slight problem. Network Rail is owned by the Nation. A very weird equation emerges.

Nation gives Network Rail money to run and maintain rail network. Network Rail fail to deliver requisite standard of work. Nation through Gumbos takes money from Network Rail. Network Rail now short of cash. There is a crisis on Rail Network. Enquiry by Gumbos demands more money to be spent on Rail Network. Extra money found by Government to meet crisis. Results?

Regulator seen to be good fella having fined Network Rail for failing to provide requisite service to Rail Network.

Government seen to be good fellas because they have found extra emergency cash to meet crisis.

In summary. The Gumbos preserve their jobs. The Government give extra cash except it’s the same cash recycled.

Wot a bunch of plonkers.

BBC

By Richard | February 24, 2008

I am incensed. Went to the cinema last evening and enjoyed the film. BUT, BEE 4 THAT WOT DID I SEE?

An advert for the BBC or the BBBC as it should be. Maybe I’m of course or my rocker but what is the BBBC doing advertising in cinemas? At least I presume cinemaS since I was only in one at the time. ‘Twas an advert for Doctor B Who.

Please enlighten me. Do the BBBC have to advertise? Are they now in competition with something and NEED to compete? NEED to improve ratings? As far as I am aware they get OUR money, spend it on whatever they want and are accountable to no-one. Nothing. Zilch. So why are they spending our money advertising?

Is it part of their charter? Are they under high command by Bottler and Cohort?

All I know is I am not amused. It’s nothing short of iniquitous that the licence fee is being spent on advertising. And the endless garbage music which has to inhabit all news releases. And everything else.

Bunch of idiots. Time to get rid of the whole caboodle.

If we still need to influence the world keep the radio going. Most of the world who tune in to the BBBC have radio only and nothing else.

Bah. And Bah again.

Call me Madam

By Richard | February 20, 2008

I cannot for the life of me understand why any lady or woman would want to be classified in the masculine. Actresses are no longer: they’re all actors and all made the more confusing when they may be called Lee. So is the actor called Lee really an actress? Confusing, isn’t it? But would the majority call Lee Marvin, Madam? Chances are no and had you done so the retort may have been more than a polite rebuff! Truth is its all nonsense. Worse still, we have the neutered label of which one of the most obvious is Chair. Why would anyone want to be a Chair? And to make matters worse we have Chairpersons. Why oh why can we not just have Chairmen and Chairwomen? Is it offensive to be sexed? Who is being protected by the absurd labelling? Who cares so much they need the lables changed or neutered?

It all boils down to the PC Brigade. Don’t know what you think PC stands for but Pretty Crap is a good start. This Army of do-gooders (not a brigade) spend all their time dreaming up the most awful indigestible junk for us all to take on board. The interesting analysis of the last sentence is the word ‘do-gooder’. Who or why or where would the label ‘do-gooder’ apply? The correct term must surely be ‘do-badder’ given that I cannot stretch my brain to see the good these bad have done. Complicating our lives is not good. It’s bad. Confusing us with labels is not good. It’s bad. Stuffing a lot of rubbish down my throat which I neither want nor need nor requested nor would request is VERY BAD. So we should call them ‘Very Do-Badders’ or is it ‘Do very Badders’?

Either way it’s time this Army was disbanded. For their own sanity.

Global Warming - The Scientific Issue

By Richard | January 8, 2008

Global Warming

How encouraging to see that the Gore Factor is at last being exposed as nothing more than a tax raising exercise. Hoo Is Gor? A renegade from the Far East? It’s pretty obvious he talks from other than his mouth and THAT is true Global Warming.

Let’s get real. All those with reason and a brain need now to question what this whole Global Warming issue is about. I have now read enough and seen enough other expert opinion to say that Gore is a plonker. Who’s paying him apart from Hollywood? And as to his Nobel Prize, either he returns it or has it re-named the Nobel Prize for Nonsense.

Time for action and debunk these self important ‘experts’ who really have zilch to add to the scientific forum. Email Gore and ask him to comment on the logic and maths at:

http://www.junkscience.com/Greenhouse/index.html

Failing that ask him to explain the non-maths logic and FACT at the web-site above.

Let’s go!!!!

The Value Add of GB aka Bottler Brown aka MacPisspoor

By Richard | December 19, 2007

So now we have the truth. The great BB (MacPisspoor) is duplicating jobs in the government of the Alternative Scottish Parliament (ASP). (Whether this means as a soon as possible OR has snake connotations I know not.) Important thing to understand is that MacPisspoor is now filling many posts in ASP. As a result of this concentration of his effort should we expect a saving? Yes, is the correct answer. No is the MacPisspoor answer.

At once we have a PM (Prime Manipulator), Chancellor (me darling), Home Sec (Call me modom) all rolled into one. That’s BB. What value! ‘Cept they’re all there!!

That’s all!!

Ken Livingstone aka Czar Ken aka His Highness aka..

By Richard | November 30, 2007

Welcome from Mumbai! (or Bombay as 80% of the locals call their city.) Of course the 20% will provide an easy association for the PC in the UK since minority opinions prevail. Or is my rite as rote rong? Try asking for Mumbai Duck downtown here and there will be only a quizzical look. Or Beef Chennai. Ditto. But Bombay Duck and Madras Beef both seem to work? Ho hum. All I can observe is that if I noticed these vagaries then so did the resplendent fellow in London (now Lundomkendom) (NB BBC) the grand Muff Man, Livingstone, Ken, Grandee and disposer of Lundomkendom taxes.

You see he were here with 74 others in his on-tour-age advising..I’m not sure this should be said or written or published so I shall write a little more and see if you can guess.

The traffic is uncontrolled, untaxed and chaotic. Getting a rickshaw taxi takes a minute at most during peak times and there are thousands of them serving the population of 20+ million. (2 x Lundomkendom?) It is horribly enterprising and efficient. 2 lanes of traffic accommodate 4 lanes of vehicles. Vehicles park anywhere and everywhere and all the officials speak English. English is the glue of India (or so say the Indians!) In fact there is the capability to employ 500000 traffic wardens and all from India, just like ….

India!!! And they could raise billions of rupees by charging a congestion charge. But they dont. So he wasn’t here to do that. Hmm.

The local taxi/rickshaw system is terribly efficient as I have already said. I have also learned that some very bright spark tried to sell the rickshaw (2 Passenger scooter running on LPG) and about the size of a Smart car to the Dragon’s Den as a solution to the transport problem in Lundomkendom. DD dismissed Bright spark with no doubt much sarcasm and arrogance (Does that woman on DD ever invest?) But Bright Spark was right. No doubt. But Lundomkendom has rules and regs to protect the few black cabs and the protected mafia they serve AND backed by legislation ruling Lundomkendom. Free society, ho, ho ho. So I am pretty convinced that His Highness was not here on behalf of the Dragons Den (just checking, of course) or the Black Cab (is that PC?) association. So, no that’s not why he was here.

Put you out of your misery. He was here with SEVENTY FOUR OTHERS AT A COST IN EXCESS OF SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND POUNDS ON HOLIDAY! No, that’s totally unfair and I retract it immediately (Sorree Me Laud) No, Czar Ken was here to advise on the building of a new UNDERGROUND SYSTEM!

That’s all.

Government Account Ability

By Richard | November 22, 2007

This is not the first use of the a/c word in short form. (See earlier entry)

What is totally as-tonishing is how the senior management in the UK wide react to management accountability. Not all of course, but many, and of the many all are in jobs out of the private sector. Fact. (Or FACT. Federation Against Copyright Theft. If you haven’t heard of them.) Anyways, I digress. Management accountability. So what is the problem? Is there a problem? Can the problem be solved? In answer to the latter 2, yes, and if the former is answered it answers the latter 2 as well! Three with one blow!!!

First issue: Do the Government in the form of the ministers and elected officials have any experience in management? On the whole, no and probably no more than 2% or 3%. ie very small. This poses the first big problem in the problem. If you have never managed, how can you expect to manage successfully? The response from those being managed is with difficulty and , they are curious about just what you are doing. In fact, there are many models which have been constructed to illustrate management techniques. Management by objectives, M by this and M by that. However, in fundamental terms there are only 2 important elements in management; the people being employed (the team, the workforce, the group etc) and the task in hand. With no team and with no task there is no need for management. BUT, in order to be successful in management there has to be recognition of the 2 elements.No recognition, no management. Simple, straightforward uncommon sense. Must be, because there seems to be little recognition or illustration in many of the publicly elected ‘leaders’ today. Why is this? ‘Cos..

Second issue: if you don’t know the 2 fundamentals of management, then the only issue thereon is self. Ego. Nose in trough pig. Selfish. And so on. And therein lies the substantial part of the problem. I have little sympathy or understanding of the lack of management awareness in the rarified strata where the self-important and bloated officials exist. At Cabinet Level there is no cognisance whatsoever of management responsibility. If something happens in your area of responsibility, then as the ‘manager’ you are responsible. Is that so difficult to understand? As the scale and nature of the happening increases, so does the accountability. In extremis, it may mean the manager has been so incompetent that there is only one course of action to take. Leave the job. Resign. Apologise and move on. Move on. Does this make sense? I hope so.

What should also make sense is the abject failure of the aforementioned to do the ‘right thing’. Why? Because they aint managers with an awareness of responsibility and they are greedy pigs. Sorry, GREEDY pigs. Their nests are so well lined they cannot see around or out of the the lining.

Goodness gracious me, look at the England soccer team. They failed. The manager did not resign, he apologised. And walked out of the door with £2.5 MILLION that is TWO MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND POUNDS OR TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY MILLION PENCE (CHECK IT!) Absurd? Ludicrous? Nonsensensical? More? Where have we arrived when someone is paid to fail? They have failed to manage. They should be shown the door. Full b.. stop. And the list goes on and on. The guilty….

Al Darling. For services to the ID fraud community.

Ruth Kelly. For lot’s of non service.

Bottler Brown. For widespreading of BS.

And so on…..

Well done the head of HMCR. You did the right thing. And perhaps, maybe, the term ‘the right thing’ is the problem for the left?

The EEC and The Gumbos in Brussels

By Richard | November 20, 2007

Have you ever considered that if we spelled Community, Kommunity then we would be members of the EEK? Makes great sense as an acronym for what is no more than a jumbo gravy joke boat!

There have been myriads of articles about the great Brussels Sprout Enterprise not surprisingly known as BSE. You read it here first; that BSE came out the EEC, EEK!

S’morning saw our ELECTED Minister for Fisheries stating that cod stocks had recovered in the North Sea. Tick box 1. He added that the ELECTED government for the United Kingdom wanted to increase the catch of cod in the North Sea. Tick box 2. So far, so good. Then, WALLOP. You have it, CODSWALLOP. He, ELECTED, is going to apply to the Kommisar for Codswallop in BSE (KCB), UNELECTED, to allow the United Kingdom to increase its cod catch!! The KCB should be knighted or is he/she already? (I wonder if the KCB was out of the KGB?)

It’s all utter bunkum. Do you know the KCB in BSE? I can wager you do not. I’ll also wager that most of the unemployed in Strasbourg don’t either. It is outrageous! AND, this whole issue came about BECAUSE they have been recycling undersize fish, all dead but caught, because the KCB advises so.

O me miserum!

BBC

By Richard | November 19, 2007

A short post.

Why do the reporters on the BBC (and Channel 4 aka BBC 5) try and pretend they come from far of climes?

Bangladesh (Bang-la-desh) is pronounced Bungla-dish. Sri Lanka (S-ri-lanka) is pronounced (Sri-lunku). In their effort to mimic the native tongues the reporters try too hard to be correct? (or maybe try according to the PC rules that govern their world?)

Point is that in the United Kingdom we have our own rules. So why do the BBC and Channel 4 et al change our rules without consultation? WE pay for them. Not them for US. Whatever happened to accountability?

Disappeared just like the dinosaurs.

Third World Aid according to the BBC

By Richard | November 19, 2007

First issue, is that it’s not THIRD WORLD but DEVELOPING WORLD. Their words not mine. Very PC.

And tonight we have pneumonia PNeanomacccccoossssiaiiaiiaisa in Africa and it’s killing more people worldwide under the age of 1 week than any other disease. Is that so?! Have these idiots ever heard of MALARIA? PNeanomacccccoossssiaiiaiiaisa is the minority partner in this murderous environment.

Get out of your taxis and limousines and high horses and GET REAL. The problem in Africa is not money. The problem is governance. And malaria is the senior partner.

Pay and spray would be a good maxim.

It used to happen in the bad old days of ‘colonialism’. Resurrect it now.

The Lost Chancellor

By Richard | November 19, 2007

Only a joke! Not lost; only promoted. I’m surprised to even think I write this text.

News headlines today feature ‘Northen Rock’ and ‘Farepak’. Are they easy bed-fellows or not? Let’s examine.

We have given £35 billion pounds to Northern Rock. LTSB could have done the same. BUT, somebody in the CABINET vetoed LTSB’s takeover. WWHHOO? Darling, why do you ask? ‘Cos it ain’t Darling. Do this bunch of Gumbos elected to govern really expect us to believe that wot they say?!!!!! If you can convince me that Darling made the decision to NOT back LTSB then I shall emigrate. (I shall anyway!!!) D’accord, it’s the GB aka BB who calls the shots. Read the press over the past few weeks and it’s obvious. GB aka BB is now Pee Emm and Chanceldour of the Exrobbers.

It beggars belief that we are expected to believe the current contrived situation. GB aka BB has let go? Ho, ho and ho! The problem he has is he is a control FFFreeeeeeeeeK!.

AD is a puppet of the Brown Man aka GB aka BB. He cannot and must not ever transgress. He is nothing. In due course this will be exposed to be the truth. In the meantime we have no option to wait and see.

I remain (AM!!) sceptical. GB is in control.

The Armed Forces, Des Browne and Government Policy on Defence

By Richard | November 19, 2007

I recall from my youth having an occasional comic; either The Beezer, The Dandy, The Beano and later Hotspur or Rover and so on. I have supposed that the cartoon characters were inimical. How wrong could I be. The Broons are alive and well in the Gumboland HP!

My own military background, and thank goodness I no longer serve, tells me that the ‘Broon’ pronouncement that the armed forces are safe in his hands is definitely Beano News! What’s he planning next? To call in Desperate Dan? Or the Bash Street Kids? He should log on to some of the forces blog sites and see for himself what the true depth of feeling is amongst our armed forces. The inability to recruit and retain is a direct reflection of the dire state of the manning (or is it personing?) in the forces today. Broon is kidding himself.

And to further undermine his illusion, I will relate my experiences of visits by politicians to field units!

First and foremost, no mess or wardroom would ever, ever be anything other than totally hospitable to any visitor and as a mark of respect to HM, the Secretary of State for Defence (Broon) would always be accorded first class treatment since he represents HM. Where or not HM approves I know not but that’s how it is. The second point is that the Armed Forces are by and large a-political; if they weren’t, then there would be the occasional revolution, uprising or whatever and there isn’t. The third issue is where I suspect there is a fear that upsetting a politician may be viewed as bad publicity and may affect funding? Who knows. All I know is that they (politicians) were always treated well.

An amusing ditty relating to this is when I served in BAOR (Germany!) and we were visited by the esteemed Fred Mulley, SoS for Defence and Gumbo extraordinaire. At least 3 days of preparation and bullshit went into the visit of Fred. In our operational briefing, he went to sleep and woke when asked did he have any questions. Of course having slept through most of the brief it was possibly difficult for him to ask anything remotely relevant. ‘Yes, says he, where can I buy my King Edwards?!! ‘(Cigars for the uninitiated!) We adjourned for lunch.

But back to the Broons. No, the Armed Forces are overstretched, underpaid and for some odd reason totally loyal.

Broon should not confuse loyalty with his misguided views. They are at opposite ends of the spectrum.

Maybe he should stop reading the Beano?

‘New’ Labour Education

By Richard | November 18, 2007

I always chuckle when I see the label New Labour. What a joke. If they were honest and true to their roots they would call themselves the Labour Party. They still sing for mother Russia so what’s the problem?!! We’ll keep the Red Flag flying high!! But watch this. Look at the word NEW.

New Education? No. After many years of destroying our education system, the New Labour Party have decided that in fact they made a mistake. No, wrong. The New Labour Party have decided that modern society has a different set of needs and they are going to revolutionise the education system by enabling youngsters who have a practical bent to train in practical careers. Wowbloodyee!

I remember when we had a two track approach to secondary education. Part of the population went to secondary modern schools and part to grammar (discounting all the ‘privileged’ who went to public school). Thereafter, the universities were populated mostly with ex-grammar school pupils and the technical colleges mostly with ex-secondary pupils. As an engineer I understand and understood exactly the wisdom of the system. It was about square pegs and square holes.

But our socialist ideals, founded in that great democracy, Russia, stated that we must all be the same. This was the death knell for the grammar school. And it pervades today. Except the plonkers who supported the notion of an equal society lost all notions of what equal society meant. It meant equal opportunity. NOT equal everything.

The consequence of the disastrous socialist policies in education has been the destruction of the engineering profession in the UK. If Brunel, one of the world’s greatest engineers had been born and brought up in the UK today, he would have emigrated as soon as he had graduated. But even more basic than that, the dreadful socialist policy has destroyed the engineering trades. It has finally dawned on the Gumbos and Plonkers that 50% graduates and 50% unemployed (which includes the Gumbos) does not give a balanced workforce. You reek ah!

There’s hope yet! The next about turn will be to bring back grammar schools. ‘Cept they wont be called that.

They’ll be called ‘New Grammar Schools’.

Same as the old but with a ‘NEW’ label!

Tax 2

By Richard | November 15, 2007

Had to number the title because along with the BBC there will be plenty more about this irritating subject.

Let me be quite clear before writing, I am not anti-tax. I am anti TOO much tax. We need to collect tax to run our country and I am pretty confident no-one will disagree with that statement. BUT, do we need a plethora of taxes, all in different arenas, all in different departments and all employing armies of Gumbos? NO. We do not.

If in fact we are totally honest with each other, we earn and should pay part of the earn to our country. Yes, our country. Not the STATE which smacks of Mother Russia, but us. You and me.

We elect people to represent us and I am very sad to say that they do not. We have lost sight of democracy. The party machinations have mislead and coerced us to believe that the party and therefore the state is paramount. BS. WE are more important. How much more rewarding to elect an INDEPENDENT representative in our councils. Then, we have true representation. Now..it’s not about Tax. This is a rant you know! Forgive the straying from the subject! So, TAX…

Part 1. How do we pay TAX?

1. Income.

2. National Insurance.

3. VAT.

4. Fuel.

5. BBC.

6. Insurance premium.

7. Departure Tax.

8. Road Fund Licence.

9. MOT for cars.

10. Council Tax.

11 Parking.

12. Wot a bore, more tax!…

My point is that there are too many ways in which we are taxed. BB aka GBH aka PM aka brainofbritain aka prattextraordinaire fully understood the tax benefits of making the whole tax collection system so complicated no-one would fathom it’s raison d’etre.

Clever? No.

Devious? Totally.

As a consequence (with the connivance of the BBC) he has managed to tax us to the guts. Tax pay day has advanced 2 weeks in the last 10 years!! If GBH has his way we’ll all end up Gumbos!

The first and most basic points are:

1. Our Government and its Public Servants need an amount to run the country.

2. That money comes from us.

If 1 = 100

and 2 = 50

Then, amount per person = 2.

QED. Easy sums.

So why do we have a structured tax system which is so complicated?

If you are familiar with my earlier entries, then the word, in the plural is: GUMBOS.

A self-serving, non-accountable bunch of bureaucrats.

They need a tax regime/structure as a matter of self preservation. No more. No less.

As to the tax issues.. more next time!

And by the way have a look at my earlier rant on the smoking and these other links.

What a great subject on which to blog! Watching Paxman’s Bee Bee See hypocrisy on Newsnight is such a relief.

Talking to the new Chairman of Southern Water over some misdemeanour committed by previous board members. And, the whole issue has/had been referred to the SFO who stated that there was no case to proceed.

So, asks judge and jury Prattman, is it not incomprehensible that a monopoly could behave in such a dishonest way?

Eh? Eh? Eh? Eh? Eh? Eh? Eh? Eh?

Naturellement, as of the Bee Bee See, we see these resignations on a daily basis.

Sorry. Not stuck. Just flabergasted. Not that the Bee Bee See are a monopoly. Of course not. And not that the Bee Bee See act dishonestly. Of course not.

And why was someone not brought to account? Asks Prattmannn.

Wot? Wot? Wot?

Wont go on, since it makes me madder by the minute.

Bunch of hypocritical peasants.

My goat’s out of bed today and his beard is quivering. This can only mean it’s time to blast auntie.

3 rapid ways to reduce costs in the BBC.

1. Stop producing adverts. And they are. For other BBC channels. For programmes. For the goverment. For …

2. Stop transporting reporters to completely unnecessary locations to tell us of an event. I have no wish to see government buildings for WHATEVER department.

3. Close down the music dubbing department. Half of the programmes I watch have music over so much you can’t hear the verbals. The other half dont need music.

Of course, the biggest cost cutter would be to sell the whole caboodle. Lock, stock and complaining unions.

Give it to Roop t’Murdoch.

Good riddance.
