Good news, everyone! The opportunistic little shit Leader of the Opposition Ed Miliband has finally had that NHS-funded (that’s you) nose-job designed to take the edge off his squeaky voice. There was initially an outcry that he was getting cosmetic surgery to make his speeches slightly less painful on the […]

July 27, 2011 at 2:11 am

Good drills from the University of Leicester this week who have triumphed with a study published in this weeks Science Daily: Mr Nolan said: “It is common knowledge that broken glass bottles can be used as an effective stabbing weapon and the results of the study have reaffirmed this.” Good […]

Scream 2

July 26, 2011 at 5:40 pm

TheEye blogged on this cartoon appearing in the Times, but it seems that no good idea goes “unborrowed”. The Irish Daily Mail went with this a day later. There’s nothing new under the sun, it seems… Good spot by Gavan Reilly

Unbiased Media?

July 25, 2011 at 9:36 pm

From here and how depressingly true. The chorus of demands for Islamic terrorism to be disregarded now or somehow placed on an equal basis with a lone gunman have already reached fever pitch in the gutter appeasement sections of the Guardian (search for your own links to KommentenMachtFrei if you […]

Tasteless Or Topical?

July 25, 2011 at 12:18 am

Yesterday the Sunday Times printed a very dark cartoon on its main op-ed pages, drawn by Gerald Scarfe. Channel 4 News technology correspondent Ben Cohen said that ‘mass murder seems more than a little inappropriate for parody‘ and promptly kicked off a fierce online debate about it. TheEye thinks that […]

In their ongoing struggle to find a mission and a purpose, we have more New World Order authoritarian nonsense from the United Nations…this time it is deploying ground troops to ‘combat’the fictional global warming menace: A special meeting of the United Nations security council is due to consider whether to […]

Godwin’s Law (Huhne Edition)

July 22, 2011 at 12:19 pm

He’s lost the plot. Jumped the shark…utterly utterly mad. And why isn’t he in jail for the driving stuff yet, anyway?

Job Opportunity: Chief Plod

July 22, 2011 at 12:02 pm

Considering Boris’ recent track record with losing senior policemen, this job advert might be a bit optimistic when it says the job of Metropolitan Police Commissioner is a five year post. It’d be interesting (ish) to know if the job has graced the SitVac pages of any national newspapers and […]

July 22, 2011 at 9:49 am

In great news for the inhabitants of Cook County, Illinois, the Forest Preserve Commissioners voted last week to change laws covering “misconduct” within the region.
