Flying pigs?

It must be a slow day at the Evening Standard.

CPS drops the case of assault by flying sausage

sausage

WTF?

A bizarre case of assault by sausage has been dropped after a judge said that prosecuting could affect the dignity of his court and the prosecution process itself.

*As you can see it’s a quiet day at FE towers as well*

Religion of Peace. I think not

From the channel 4 dispatches programme aired last night. No wonder we home grow our own terrorists.

H/T to The Barking Spider who comments more prosaically than me on this video.

Bin Fairies?

wheelie bin

I’m not sure whether I contracted Dementia, just plain forgetful, or there are demonic forces at play at FE towers.

Now Mrs FE always puts one of the wheelie bins (Green one this week) out on a Monday morning before she sets out for her sixteen hour shift down the porridge mines. (We need the money to keep me in drink, fags and truffles, you see).

After arising from my bed at the early hour of  eleven AM and consuming a leisurely breakfast of strong coffee I went out in the spirit of marital harmony to retrieve the bin from the end of the drive.

And.

NO BIN. First thought was that an international gang of bin nappers was operating in the area. Second thought was whether to call the police and ask if they have an armed bin recovery squad available. Third thought was time for a fag. Of course the ciggie packet, only having one it, had to be disposed of, so round the corner of the house to deposit it in the black bin.

And

Bugger me. There was the Green bin nestling up against the Black bin. How did it get there? Have we got a bin moving charitable organisation set up in my neighbourhood all of a sudden, Fairies, or maybe I’ve become senile and should be put out of my misery with a non Halal stun gun? What do you think?

Sunday Night Nostalgia

A young female welder who is passionate about dance falls in love with the owner of the plant she works in. What she doesn’t realise is that he pulled strings to get her an audition with a top dance academy. But………………………. They lived happily ever after. I hope.

I would like to think that the Twat Cameron would have the balls to use the prisoner voting issue to stand up to the EU. I bet that he caves in. Anyone going to bet against me?

Thought not.

Oh Dear. Butter won’t melt in your mouth

Please be true

Governments, investors and even the World Bank are rushing for the exits in the Great Escape from the green energy bubble.

Solar energy appears to be the worst affected sector so far. Dow Jones reports on a startling U-turn by Britain’s ultra-green government has caught investors off guard and shock waves across the markets will likely precipitate the further rush from green energy projects to shale gas.

The UK’s Department of Energy and Climate Change made the shock announcement as it revealed a comprehensive review of its Feed-in Tariff (FIT) program. Indications from data provider, Prequin are that over $1bn in earmarked funds may be lost as Britain now promises it will only hold tariffs until April 2012.

The article is by John O’Sullivan. Do go and read the whole post.

You’re damned if you do and damned if you don’t.

It would seem that you can’t do anything these days that will not get the Righteous screaming with indignation.

Speaking at the parish council's meeting on Tuesday, chairman councillor Mark Rolle said he had been offended by the slur on the sign.

"The realms of decency were overstepped – we could be branded a village of bigots."

and

Councillor Paul Boyes agreed and said: "I personally find it offensive. I think it is our duty to say something."

and more

But Councillor Angela Trend disagreed and said: "I found it offensive. Some people aren't confident enough to go in and make a stand."

And of course the plod were involved. Natch.

A spokesman for Hampshire Constabulary said police had "spoken with the hotel's management about the issues."

What was the offence, you ask? Remember the Christian couple who were castigated for turning away a gay couple? This is the exact opposite. It shows that we have a class of person that is professionally offended.

What was the offence?

Police investigated a village hotel owner for erecting a "Poofters welcome here" sign, in reference to a recent court ruling that B&Bs are obliged to accept homosexual customers.

Well Done Brillo

Brillo tears John Hirst to shreds on the Daily Politics show.

 

Insufferable twat.
