The Stillettoed Socialist: Brown introduced by glamorous Labour activist... who didn't even want him to be PM.

The glamorous activist who introduced Labour's manifesto has previously called for the violent death of Margaret Thatcher and for Gordon Brown to be removed as Prime Minister.

Ellie Gellard has over 3,000 followers on Twitter and includes Ed Balls, Sarah Brown and Alastair Campbell among her fans.

But the decision to ask the 20-year-old student to introduce Mr Brown at such as high profile event risked backfiring today.

Miss Gellard - who goes under the name 'Bevanite Ellie' on her website - last year suggested that she would like to see elderly Baroness Thatcher fall down the stairs on a skateboard.

Legal aid for expenses Troughers.

I bet that if I was due in court, I would be turned down. At least The conservative peer hasn't claimed for aid. Yet.

 

Three politicians accused of fiddling their expenses have won a bid to get the public to pick up their legal bill.

Court officials confirmed that the trio of Labour MPs will receive taxpayer-funded legal aid.

David Chaytor, Elliot Morley and Jim Devine are due to go on trial later this year accused of theft by false accounting.

They are accused of stealing almost £60,000 in allowances through false mortgage applications, rent claims and invoices for services.

Tom Mendelsohn: Official - the tabloids have lost interest already

We are exactly one week in to Election 2010, and already the tabloids have got bored. They tried for the first few days: they gave plenty of pages to the coverage, they wheeled out their big shot columnists and they amped up the tribal invective. Sadly though, seeing as interesting events have so resolutely failed to occur, this early barnstorming gusto has swiftly tapered away into nothingness.

Why's Mandy backing the history man?

The once feared political operator Lord Mandelson - whose strategy backfired spectacularly when he attacked business leaders who opposed Labour's hike in national insurance - has blundered again.

Labour caught out over NHS petition e-mails

Doctors fear that they are being used.

A doctor has complained that senior Labour figures are trying to pressure her into publicly backing the party against her will.

The Devil's minions have left.

Yep. The kids have gone.

The fridge is empty.

The beer has all been drunk.

Ditto Gin.

Ditto every other intoxicating beverage.

And they conned me into paying for their Sunday Lunch at the pub.

Excuse: Must dash. We've got a cruise ship to catch in Dubai.

Excuse: The cats need feeding.

Excuse: I've got to run excuse No.1 back to their house so that they can get packed in time.

Grrrrrrrh

The hellspawn are back

The Kids and their Boyfiends/girlfiends, have returned from their night out.

Refer to my previous post

I spent a lot of the evening cleaning the Kitchen, carting the empties out to the garage. Relief.

They're back!

And what's more they are drinking what's left of my booze.

Rum. Gone

Gin. Gone

Whisky. Nope. I'm clutching it to my chest in the kitchen. However I hear the baying hounds of hell are at the door. How long can I last? The first hammer blows against the door have started...........

Could the next Gate be Goldgate?

Listen to the clip below and make up your own mind. In it, it  would appear that some banks are playing footloose with the amount of Physical Gold they have in their vaults. As little as 1% compared with what they have sold to their clients on paper.

Seen anything about this in the MSM? I haven't.

If this is true then we would be looking at a complete melt down in the banking world. It would make the subprime fiasco look like a child's game.

Hell has returned.

My kids have descended on FE towers.

The Kitchen looks like the Municipal waste tip.
