Its traditional for New York mayors to introduce ‘zero tolerance’ to something or other. Its kind’a expected of them. Rudy Giuliano started it with his zero tolerance to crime. And he cleaned up the city completely over his term. Got rid of ‘no-go’ areas, cleansed, sanitised, removed the drug dealers, reduced muggings, it was a – Read More-
Oh my word. What a disgrace. How shameful. Forget groping Lib-Dem Lords, set aside quenelle gestures by footballers; Spearmint Rhino and the Apartheid regime are both insignificant as gestures of racism and sexism, compared to… to… to THIS!!!! Dasha Zhukova is sitting on a CHAIR!!!!! What a total BITCH!!!!!! (what’s ‘bitch’ in Russian?) But what – Read More-
I believe in freedom. Amen. I believe in personal liberty. But not taking liberties with others. Even if you’re a politician. Especially if you’re a relic of a 1970s radio jock. I don’t like censorship, I believe in the sanctity of free speech and expression and I think people should be given sufficient lattitude in – Read More-
Its amazing, profound and highly significant. I just googled to see what ‘bitch’ is in French. Not that most French people wouldn’t understand, if not the word itself, certainly the tone in which it is uttered. But what I found was 756,371 sites (ok, I didn’t count them all, but certainly more than 20) dedicated – Read More-

He said that the recent terrible flooding in his and other areas was a direct message from God to David – Read More-
I thought of a great way to con people. Its brilliaint. A modern day sting. Or Sting. Here’s what you do: you make a film about a con, a sting, a hustle. You get truly brilliant actors (I shall include the females under this generality for the sake of… of… of something) and you get – Read More-
Nicolas Anelka ‘performed’ his now infamous ‘quenelle’ geture after scoring a goal on December 28th. I think it safe to say that at that time, unless you are French or part of a worldwide anti-semitic conspiracy, that, like me, you’d never seen nor heard of such a thing. I thought a ‘quenelle’ was a new – Read More-
Fantastic goal was scored on Sunday by Cheik Tiote, the Newcastle midfielder. Stunning goal. Goal of the day/month/season type goal. And then it wasn’t. After careful consideration (we don’t got no tv replays in our national game) and discussion it was decided that it was not a goal. Someone was offside. Not Tiote, he was – Read More-
China is making big efforts in improving its image. As well it needs to. Its an awful place. Corrupt, overcrowded, full of poor people, under a brutal regime, no human rights, forced to eat dogs, cats and slugs, and it produces more carbon than the rest of the world put together. But its rich. Very – Read More-
Poor Valerie Trierweiller. Upon hearing of her partner’s love affair with Julie Gayet, she felt as if, according to a friend, ‘she’d been hit in the chest by a high speed train’. She should live in England. The trains are never high speed, if they turn up at all. But this explains why certain women – Read More-
