Israeli Piracy




Israeli forces have attacked the international aid convoy Freedom Flotilla en route to the besieged Gaza Strip, killing a reported 19 people and leaving more than 50 injured.

The attack came on Monday morning, 31st May, after one of the six ships in the convoy was hit by Israeli navy forces before being stormed by commandos descending from helicopters.

The interception took place in international waters, more than 150km (90 miles) off the coast of Gaza.

The Milli-Vanilli-band : Band wagon



 Ed Milliband yesterday became the first Labour leadership candidate to secure enough MP's nominations to formally enter the contest. Although his brother David is still the hot ticket to win. I wonder how their mum is dealing with the situation. Will there be tears before bedtime ?


 There , of course , can be only one winner....hang on a minute. Perhaps another power sharing opportunity is on the cards. At least this time they can keep the Grammy's..


PS: I don't know why this post is all caps ! I can't seem to change it.

Tory Party Party


Smug Eton Bellend , George Osbourne, has had a very tricky weekend throwing not one but two lavish parties at his Grace and favour home of Dorneywood. At one, the multimillionaire paraded around the grounds entertaining other multimillionaires as a reward for their assistance in the  recent grabbing of power, you'd think simply having more millions added to their off-shore accounts due to new tax breaks would be enough. And at the other do, he celebrated his 39th birthday. Seriously, with him being the figurehead of thousands of public sector job cuts in the near future was there no way of tightening his own belt and combining the two parties into one ?

Or maybe after recent experience , he realised that combining two parties can only led to failure and disappointment...

Totally Biased Post Election Podcast Now Available

Picture nicked off News Biscuit


Check out the podcast from last weeks show (you might have to scroll down the page a bit to find us). A bit late but still packed with funniness and fury!

Totally Biased is in post election meltdown. This show was first broadcast live at the very moment that David Cameron was visiting old Pound Face at the palace to pick up the keys to Number Ten. Steve is joined by David Tuck to discuss the big lesson of Election 2010 – Never ever trust a Lib Dem ever everagain. There is also music from Richard Thompson and Martyn Joseph. Plus the usual fraught attempts to speak to our Minister for Social Insecurity, Ed Crasnick in LA.

Lordy, Lordy.. by David

It's just occurred to me that with Lord Andrew Lord Webber and Lord Sugar [ not as good as nomenclature as 'Sir Alan'] , judging talent contests. Two Lords presiding over their respective manors,  with common folk stepping forward , tugging forelock and hoping for the patronage of their betters. Has this country gone not to a Con-Dem pact, but actually as far back as feudal ?

The keys to success

Oddly even though there was much talk about the keys to number ten the door itself has no key holes or even
 handles. Like those 24 hour Tesco's.
