October 28, 2009 at 3:57 pm

Peter Kilfoyle MP has tabled an EDM opposing the coronation of Blair as President of the European Council. At least that’s what he probably means – there is no such job of President of the European Union…that’s just a phrase used by lazy journalists and ignorant backbench Labour MPs. This […]

St Crispin’s Day

October 25, 2009 at 7:35 pm

It is not for nothing that one of the writers on this blog has chosen St Crispin as his nom de guerre. His status as a serving officer precludes him from contributing anything like as much as he would like to our blog but he is a good friend to […]

Jimmy Carr Is Way Over The Line

October 25, 2009 at 2:37 am
