David Owen was calling for military invasion so I guess we should be grateful in a round about way. It was the Venezuala thing that's done me. Don't need wikileaks, David Shayler, Craig Murray or any other whistle blower or disgruntled employee - that the top desk in the FCO can't do intercept at the UN, or you know - have a grasp of what's going on when Bonky Moon's on the fucking phone to the chap, well, it's no better than turning to the person next to you at the bar and asking 'ere are buddy, where do you reckon that Gadaffi's at these days?'
'Well, if you ask me, I reckon that 'ugo Chavez 'ull have im - they're both fucking loons'.
Cheers bud, good call. FFS, another nail in the coffin of the FCO ruinous slide into a branch of Incompetence Inc brought to you by ejeets. Our motto - fit for fuck all today and tomorrow.
I thought I'd just check my "European Union United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland" (punctuation as original) passport for that "Her Britannic Majesty" bit, for the passage about affording the bearer assistance and protection. And it's still there. But did it always begin thus? 'Her Britannic Majesty's Secretary of State Requests and requires' seems new-fangled. Or am I misremembering? And which Secretary of State would that be?
I can't help, mr ptb, like Colonel von Fawkes, I have an Irish passport. I do seem to remember that it was her Maj, though, and not some piece of political bumfluff, did the R & R-ing, read like something from Hornblower. Which is more than can be said for Hague, the fucking chump, who reads like something from the Beano.
I would always value the opinion of the man in the bar, mr dtp, over that of the professional arsehole.
This is indeed pure DC Thomson. What a fucking caper, you couldn't make it up.
With Vlad slowly stirring the pot, watching the oil price creep ever higher. A bit more, perhaps, comrade?
Ok, my curiosity was piqued. According to the National Archives:
Post 1795 but prior to 1915 the wording read:
"We [handwritten name] His Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Request and require in the Name of His Majesty all those whom it may concern to allow the bearer to pass freely without let or hindrance and to afford [name] every assistance and protection of which [name] may stand in need. "
Post-1915 and pre-EU passports it read:
"Her Britannic Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Request and require in the Name of His Majesty all those whom it may concern to allow the bearer to pass freely without let or hindrance and to afford them every assistance and protection of which they may stand in need."
So up until what? 1998? 2001? Billy Vague would have been doing the asking. Now, it is some secretary or other, could be anyone, but not me, guv, oh no, another boy was supposed to do it and ran away.
It's an educayshon comin' here! Fuck it - Donna Summer is callin' - off to youtubesville.
So vague are they that they appear to have forgotten to have a PM for the last few days. Clegg forgot that he was in charge, and then had the good sense to tell a journalist. Dear God. What muppets!
He wanted to be a politician since he was an embryo; knew the clauses of the Great Reform Bill of 1831 before he knew his ABC.
A member of Johnny Y Fronts govt as it dragged itself down in a mire of sleaze, a former Tory leader, a man who has done nothing but ate, breathed and shat politics since day one, that`s Hague.
And he shared a hotel room with his young SPAD. Now, didn`t he think cynics ( or everyone ) might interpret this in a particular way ? After all people are a tad cynical about politicians these days, didn`t he realise that ? Aren`t these people supposed to be obsessed by the media ? Even if all they did was discuss the repeal of the Corn Laws ( as if ) did it not cross his mind people might think he was up to something else ?
He`s lived a life of politics and he`s still absolutely useless at it. And at administration; just running something. Add the rest of them, all of them, to that. A 24 carat, diamond studded, gold plated example of being Good for Fuck All.
Beggars belief, doesn't it?
Own up.
Who slashed the picture?
I wondered why Bliar brought the down age of two homosexuals bumming each other to 16 as first law they brought in,Billy the kid looks as if he was the poor confused git they used on tv.
