A bit of a hoo-ha in the press this week after David Cameron said, live on air during a radio interview,that all people who twitter are twats.

1 August 2009 Do it Yourself Cosmetic Surgery.
by Ian R Thorpe

Have you ever hear of or been presented with something that makes you scream: “Oh no, I’d rather stick needles in my eyes.” In my case these moments usually occur in connection with food. Bananas, beetroot, tripe, anything to do with offal, Baxter’s Country Vegetable Soup which, for those unfamiliar with the brand, looks like a bowl of warm vomit; the thought of eating any of these give me a feeling of nauseous loathing that makes the idea sticking needles in my eyes seem the better option. Such stuff was never meant...

2009-07-22

An even that took place almost unnoticed on Sunday could have a profound effect on the fate of humanity. It was a cataclysmic cosmic collision of the kind many people believed wiped out the dinosaurs on Earth 60 million years ago and which space watchers predict could in the near future bring to a similar end the era of human domination.

Last Sunday as America watched veteran golfer Tom Watson fail in his effort to travel back in time and win a major golf tournament and Britain, Australia and most of the Indian sub continent were glued to the television watching cricket, Liberal, Democrat MP Lembit Opik collided with the gaseous planet Jupiter....

The MP for Denton and Reddish, Andrew Gwynne, has become the first Member of Parliament to be infected by the Swine Flu (or H1N1 virus if we’re being picky)

Mr. Gwynne has claimed sick leave from his Parliamentary duties and promised colleagues he will not return to Westminster until he is fully recovered.

He might think he has behaved responsibly but as the Swine Flu death toll grows your Boggart Bloggers feel he has missed a golden opportunity to do the public a great service.

2009-07-08 Scientists Have Not Made Sperm.
by ianrthorpe
also posted at Boggart Blog

The news this morning was full of a story about scientists at Newcastle University having made human sperm in the laboratory.

Now with so much organically grown sperm available all around the world you might well ask why in hell anyone in their right mind would want to create sperm in a laboratory when they can just have a wank.

We are dealing with scientists here though and there are seldom any rational explanations for why scientists do the things they do. And its no good asking. If you were to ask one of the scientists "why do you want to create sperm in the laboratory" they would look at you pityingly and say "you just don't understand science."

Not understanding science seems a good place to be however. While all the science heads were leaping up and down and yelling "Whoopeeeee, we've created sperm" and busily splashing it all over the front page of the Guardian (the news, not the erm...) people who spend most of their lives looking through at real, non - scientific, normally ejaculated sperms had looked through their computer monitors at the video the Newcastle team had posted on You Tube and said, "Hold on, these aren't sperm, they look a bit like sperm but they don't move like sperm, they don't think like sperm and they can't answer three simple questions any elf respecting sperm would know the answer to.

So it turns out the scientists have not created sperm at all, they just exaggerated their results and ended up with egg on their faces. Which is nice.

Memo to Boris and friends. Don't Claim Your Lover On Expenses
by Ian R Thorpe
2009-06-23

One of Boris Johnson's sidekicks has been forced to resign after being caught out claiming dinners with his lover on his London Assembly business expenses:

“Ian Clement, Deputy Mayor for Government and External Relations, has resigned from the Greater London Authority (GLA) with immediate effect. He tendered his resignation to the Mayor of London this morning following the discovery of further discrepancies in the use of his corporate credit card."

I reckon it's the lover that dobbed him in.

If only Mr. Clement had invested in a copy of my book "Ageing Roue's guide to playing away from home," Rule one states quite clearly; Never allow your lover to think you regard her as a business expense.

Men No Longer Hitting On Jordan
by ianrthorpe
2009-06-19

It was quite a surprise today to learn that 85% of the people who visit the website of Jordan (aka Katie Price) are women. A disturbingly high proportion are in fact young women hoping to pick up some tips on how to become a professional tits out for the boys model. These girls see the pneumatic Ms. Price as a role model whose example will guide and inspire them in their quest to make £millions by getting unfeasibly large breasts, a botox face and a trout pout.

Of the men who do hit Jordan’s page most are looking for older pictures when the plastic passionella looked slightly human. Not many men are interested in Miss Chavvy (2009 version).

There is a valuable lesson for Jordan wannabees in that. Blokes are not that turned on by the idea of feeling up sacks of silicon or kissing collagen hard lips. There is no warmth or allure in a botulin smile no matter how much its owner is being paid for revelations about her body functions in OK magazine.

Go down the road Jordan has taken and soon the only men available will be Peter Andre duhalikes.

You have been warned.



Susan Boyle Announces New Lingerie Range by Ian R Thorpe
2009-06-18

It has been reported by the gutter press that television talent show Britain's Got Talent runner up Susan Boyle is planning to launch her own designer label on a range of sexy lingerie. Susan, who you may remember, cracked under the pressure of fame and spent some time in the Priory Clinic undergoing therapy is now being looked after by Simon Cowell's production company pSyCo (oops, that p was a typing error) A Spokesman for SyCo said "we are not allowing Susan to be pressured. She is not used to the glare of publicity and does not like to say no when people ask for her time. We are making sure Susan only has to do things she feels comfortable with."

And what Susan feels comfortable with apparently is helping the women of the world rediscover the sexual allure of big tartan tweed knickers.

She told a Boggart Network News reporter yesterday "Och, lassies hae no use fae these wee thongs. Gi a girl a pair o' big knickers and she can hae any mon she desires." Having imparted that wisdom Susan demonstrated her lascivious hip swivelling technique which she claims when performed by a girl in big knickers is irresistibe to man, goat and Piers Morgan.

The Subo Seduction range will not entirely do away with the thong though. By sewing a merkin that resembles a cross between a brillo pad and a mad mulah's beard to the frontpiece of a standard thong and then stitching the whole to a flesh coloured pair of Susan's favourite big knickers it is possible, she says, to create the "naked look." But why?

"A girl wouldnae want tae gae commando of a nicht in Scotland she told our reporter with another swing of her ample hips.

When we asked SyCo if it was true Susan planned to launch the range their spokesperson refused to comment.

Would You Let This Man Near You With A Tattooists Needle?
by fatsally
@ 2009-06-17

An eighteen year old French girl is attempting to sue the tattooist who tattooed 56 stars from above the bridge of her nose, down the left side of her face to her chin and across her left cheek back to her nose.

The girl claims she asked the Belgian tattooist for just three stars at the corner of her left eye, making the request in her native French and also repeating the number in English, because she thought he hadn't understood.

She then allegedly fell asleep in the chair and when she awoke she was doing a good impersonation of the Milky Way.

It all sounds a bit dubious to me, after all just like three and fifty six don't sound remotely similar, neither do trois and quarant-seize and French and Belgian aren't that dis-similar.

The tattoist claims she got exactly what she asked for and was awake the whole time.

However would you trust a man who is tattooed from the the top of his forehead all down his face and throat, who has two large plugs in either ear and also two plugs in the side of each nostril, plus a ring through his septum?

And that's before you encounter the four studs through his top lip and the seven rings through his bottom lip, making him look like Hannibal Lecter wearing his muzzle.

Spare Us The Identity Politics
It is a characteristic of the era in which we live that the assaults of the collectivist, authoritarian left on the traditional value that hold nations buit on the Graeco Roman culture together has created identity politics, one of the most destructive trends of the past half century. The human rights movement having gasined roughly equal rights in most developed nations turned its attention to minority rights. They obsess about gay rights, Muslims rights, black rights, children'r rights and womens rights as if ...

Another French Hopeful With His Foot In His Mouth
To a delirious crowd of around 20,000, M. Hollande, the Socialist candidate cited The Bard of Stratford on Avon as he promised to cast off the ennui of the Nicolas Sarkozy era with a new wave of egalitarian idealism. In dismisssing Sarko as sans balls, sans brains and sans achievements Mr Hollande told the crowd, was best summed up by Shakespeare's great words: "They failed because they did not start with a dream." ...

Europe Does Not Just Have A Debt Crisis But A Crisis Of Democracy

Europe's debt crisis and the possible collapseb of the Euro zone are exercising many political commentators. But is the crisis just about debt and saving the single currency or is something more sinister going on. Are we witnessing an attempt to dump democracy and impose a totalitarian oligarchy?

David Cameron Blames Madness Of Bussels Red Tape For Euro Crisis

Alien Life? Who Needs Lizard Men There Is A Universe Of Ideas Out There.
What If We Are Alone? Scientist insit we must spend $£€ mega on trying to contact alien life forms. But putting aside the thought that such aliens may be hostile and hungry, why do we need to.

Massive Solar Radiation Storm Set To Hit Earth
The Daily Stirrere has told you all along that the climate change doom and gloom merchants and the climate science tax eaters were a bunch of con men whose aim was to divert our attention from the real threats facing humanity, some of which are man made (but not related to carbon emissions) and some which are natural and completely beyond the control of smart arse scientists, the pompous politicians who fund them or ...

While Socialist Occupy Protestors Call Punitive Tax On Weath, Socialist Tony Blair Pays 5% Tax

With Harriet Harman's Inequsalitries Bill having for the first time enshrined the superiority of minorities over the mainstream you might think at last there was some chance of making the elite live by the same rules as the rest of us. No chance as Tony Blair's use of offshotre tax havens and shell companies to blatantly dodge tax shows.
Nick Clegg: housing benefit reform will not cause 'mass homelessness'
Lib Dem leader has been defending the government's plan to cap the amount of state benefits that can be paid to a houehold. About time too.

The smammers are still busy in spite of all Google's inept and ineffectual attempts to stop them. In one way it is satisfying to know everything that bunch of incompetent semi autistic idiots do to try to stomp on comment spam actually rewards ...

GCSE Skydiving? And They Call It Education?
It's good to see the education system have decided to stop making exams as easy as falling off a wall. At least is the conclusion one might draw from the fact that a new exam introduced by the WJEC exam board will require candidate to jump out of a plane ...

Obama Prepares To Kick Off War With Iran.
We Old Gits who write The Daily Strrer love to say, with the obligatory show of false modesty, we told you so. And we get to indulge in this pleasure quite often as we are always right. So as we have predicted the US was preparing foir war with Iran several times of the thre years since we started The Daily Stirrer you might wel ask "Will they admit they were wrong on this one? Well we would be happy to admit we were wrong had we been wrong. Things are never what they seem to be however

Has The Fanaticism Of Militant Athreists Stigmatized Atheism Again
Not long ago, even though the nation had largely abandoned churchgoing, to describe oneself as an atheist carried a certain stigma. In the nineteen eighties and nineties that receded however as regular worshippers in Britain comprised just 6% of the population. Now however, thanks to militant atheism, the stigma is on the way back.

Immigrants Who Have Never Paid UK Tax Or National Insurance Claiming Billions A Year In Benefits

While the bleeding hearts of the "progressive left" wail and gnash their teeth over the plight of the world's poor a new report reveals hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants who came to this country on the pretext of studying or visiting relatives are living in fine style thanks to our lax approach to illegals and the incomptence of those who run the benefit system.

Are Feminists More Evil Than Nazis
A campaign by feiminists and lefties to get t shirts will slightly sexist slogans withdrawn from sale shows how authoritarian the progressive left are prepared to be in imposing their warped moral values on everybody.

The Decline And Fall Of The Bureaucratic Empire
The societies we live in, the companies we work for and by extension our lives are run by people who tell us they are much cleverer than we are. This is why we need elites and why, we are told, we must tolerate their high living, their jollies off to luxury resorts where they may focus their minds fully on how better to exploit us, use our money filched from tax revenues that should be spent to our benefit, on high class hookers. The point is we the ordinary punters are, according to these people, simply too stupid to ...

Drop in UK inflation Is Not Good News
The Office for National Statistics has reported a sharp fall in the Consumer Prices Index - down from 4.8 per cent in November to 4.2 per cent last month - was the sharpest drop in the annual rate since December 2008 when the UK was in recession and VAT was reduced. Government ministers and propagandists will try to talk this up as a sing that the economy is starting to recover. We should be wary however, in the current economic circumstances a drop in inflation, especially one this rapid in what is traditionally the best month of the year for retailers, is not good news ...

There Are Some Very Weird People Out There
A list of the strangest items left behind in bedrooms by guests at

Osborne Says Cuts To Across The Board Child Benefit Will Go Ahead.

Chancellor George Osborne has said the Coalition government's plan to cut child benefit for higher rate taxpayers will go ahead but after ministers' hints the policy could be made "fairer" Mr Osborne has agreed to review the plans.

COMMENTS AND RECOMMENDED REA.DING AROUND THE WEB

In this section we do not necessarily support the views expressed in linked articles but try to give a coss section of interesting and well written articles that we think are likely to stir things up a bit.

COMMENT:
(A random and ecletic mix of what we thought was worth reading recently)

Unemployment at 8.3% Still Leaves A Vast And Destructive Jobs Deficit Robert Reich, The Guardian
The most significant aspect of January's jobs report is political. The fact that America's labor market continues to improve is good news for the White House. But as a practical matter, the improvement is less significant for the American workforce.
President Obama's only chance for rebutting Republican claims that he's responsible for a bad economy is to point to a positive trend. Voters respond to economic trends as much as ...

Much Media Ado About Nothing What connects seemingly disparate works such as The Silence of the Lambs, Cape Fear, Mad Men, and Seinfeld? It is the philosophy of nihilism, first popularized by Friedrich Nietzsche in the late 19th century. But in the last few decades, how did it become the dominant worldview of Hollywood? Dawn Of The Ice Age Signals The End Of The Global Warming Scam Back then, the media and activists trumpeted the arrival of a new ice age, with the specter of ice sheets and glaciers covering half the northern hemisphere, and brutal winters in the remaining ice-free zones. The fact that the media and popular culture and academia have veered from one panic-inducing disaster scenario to another one which completely contradicts the first one is funny enough in its own right. But reading The Weather Conspiracy: The Coming of the New Ice Age opened my eyes to an even more significant aspect ...

Hundreds of Independent Bookshops Face Closure
Hundreds of independent bookshops could be forced to close unless local authorities do more to support them, a leading retail group has warned. The Booksellers Association (BA), which represents 3,500 independent bookshops across the UK, has written to almost 400 council chiefs urging them to do more to support their local high streets or risk ...

Solar Panels Subsidy Was The Most Ridiculous Green Scheme Deramed Up
A plan to subsidise solar panels on homes was “one of the most ridiculous schemes ever dreamed up”, a Government minister has said.
Lord Marland, an Energy minister, hit out at the cost of so-called feed-in tariffs, which the Government has axed as part of the cuts programme. Last week Court of Appeal ruled that the sudden axing of the tariffs ...

Goodbye Great Britain
Recently, there have been two powerful challenges to the conventional wisdom about the United States. First, Robert Kagan published a lengthy essay in The New Republic, arguing that predictions of America's decline as a global power are woefully premature. .Is it possible, I found myself wondering, to do something similar for Britain? Robert Colvile has a go in this Daily Telegraph article ...

Our rising debt levels are becoming unsustainable – soon we may be talking about wealth confiscation (By Daniel Knowles, Daily Telegraph)
Debt, debt, debt; we’re drowning in it. This morning, the Office for National Statistics published the latest estimates of public sector borrowing. Though borrowing is falling faster than anticipated, thanks to the fact that spending cuts are finally beginning to kick in, the national debt has risen to 64.2 per cent of GDP. More significantly,…

The Obama administration knifes Britain in the back again over the Falklands - By Nile Gardiner World
In yet another display of disdain for the Anglo-American Special Relationship, the Obama administration has weighed in on the mounting tensions between Great Britain and Argentina over the Falkland Islands. Just two days after Prime Minister David Cameron issued a robust statement in the House of Commons vowing to defend the sovereignty of the Falklands,…

Drones In The Hands Of The Paparrazi - It's an ethical minefield
America's use of drones for targeted killings is serious enough. But commercial and law enforcement uses are on the horizon. Whether you view them as model aeroplanes for grown-ups or the handmaidens of the killer robot, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), commonly known as drones, are taking off in earnest. ...

The Observer uncritically regurgitates Trotskyist smears against Katharine Birbalsingh- By Toby Young, Daily Telegraph
There’s a disgraceful attempt to smear Katharine Birbalsingh in this morning’s Observer. Under the headline “Katharine Birbalsingh criticised over ‘wasteful’ free school project“, the paper’s policy editor Daniel Boffey tries to create the impression that there’s growing local opposition to the Michaela Community School – Birbalsingh’s free school – which is due to open in…

We’re being sent the bill for the euro crisis again – this time by the IMF - By Daniel Hannan First it was individual banks; then whole industries; then entire countries; now it’s the world. Western leaders have reacted to the failure of each bailout by decreeing a bigger one. Unable to admit their mistake, slaves to the defunct economist whose thinking dominates our economics faculties and central banks, they act like so many Nick Leesons,…

The Three Parent Family More on the progressive left's war on the family and the scientific dictaorship's attempts to dehumanize us all. Babies with three biological parents could be born within three years. Scientists have come up with an IVF technique that uses the undamaged DNA of a third party when couples risk giving their children a genetic conditions such as muscular dystrophy or ataxia. The Wellcome Trust has funded the research (the figures vary between £4 million and six million …

As Obama Positions Himself For A War In Syria We Learn That Like Gadaffi, Assad Is Popular With His People
Most Syrians back President Assad, but you'd never know from western mediaAssad's popularity, Arab League observers, US military involvement: all distorted in the west's propaganda war. Suppose a respectable opinion poll found that most Syrians are in favour of Bashar al-Assad remaining as president, would that not be major news? Well one did and we never heard a word of it in the Obama felching western media ...

Bullshit Sherlock
While other blogs are full of how great the cliff - faller ending of Sherlock Holmes was I felt a bit let down. The fake suicide was telegraphed all through the show. And the coda assured us Sherlock had survived. We should not forget of course it was the habit of ...

Will bringing back grammar schools boost social mobility? by Toby Young Daily Telegraph
The possibility that England may shortly see its first new grammar school in over 50 years has, predictably enough, re-opened the debate about selective education. Yesterday, for instance, Allison Pearson came down firmly in favour, while Fiona Millar shot back with an instant rebuttal. I’ll get into that argument in a moment, but first let’s be…

So Why Read Books Anymore
There is great “truth and beauty” in Homer’s Iliad, but I would not try to make his sale on such platitudes. Gibbon’s The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire remains a classic. But I confess it can be hard to get through. Conrad’s Victory or Knut Hamsun’s Growth of the Soil, if authored by writer X this year, would be trashed on Amazon.So what are the reasons, in this age of ...

Eric Holder and the Chicago Way In America Obama's Brownshirts are getting hysterical as they try to make race the major issue in the election campaign.

Dystopian Prophecies Are Coming True - The Government Will Soon Choose Our Wives
Thinking of this entertaining new literary award – “the Hatchet Job of the Year” – it was natural to turn to Macaulay’s Essays, for few reviewers have ever been less reluctant to wound. I had in mind two long review-essays, one on Robert Montgomery’s Poems, the other on The State in its relations with ...
