In its ongoing campaign to irritate St Crispin’s Day, the RAF is now reported to want to take over the Royal Navy’s Fleet Air Arm and assume control of all Army helicopters. The justification is that it would shave £1 billion from the defence budget. Apparently the Royal Navy clashed […]

TheEye is slightly nervous as to how furious the reaction of the excellent fellow Eye contributor and also individual blogger St Crispin’s Day may be to the announcement today that the Government has sold off our remaining stake in AWE Aldermaston. Don’t tell him or it could all get horribly […]

A very entertaining part of TheEye’s day is casting its gaze over The Croydonian’s site. The regular updates on DPRK-Watch are always good value for money. As such stories are covered excellently there, the glance is therefore diverted southward to a less entertaining story but still one which ends in […]

Always on the lookout for that final stocking-filler, TheEye happens upon this book called “Toujours Tingo: Weird words and bizarre phrases“. Compiled by Adam Jacot de Boinod, it lists weird words and bizarre phrases from around the world. The “tingo” of its title is an Easter Island word, meaning to […]

Anonymous? TheEye is and needs to remain so. TheEye is known to those to whom it wishes to be known and is unknown to others. Keeping one’s job requires political neutrality and a politically slanted blog would therefore be awkward to say the least. TheEye’s gaze, however, moves across a […]

It comes as a blow when towering politicians and journalists of our time pass on, and TheEye was saddened to see that Conor Cruise O’Brien is no longer with us. Although 91 is a fine innings for anybody, The Cruiser managed to cram in more in that time than most […]

TheEye has no sympathy for the politically correct thought-police who now seem to rule our lives. However a small amount of pity can be found for the desk-bound cretin who has to work this tricky one out: what do you do with a “lesbian Asian bus driver” sacked now by […]

Bouyed by a splendid contribution from St Crispin’s Day, TheEye feels it can relax, slip back into the metaphorical armchair and contemplate the buying of Christmas gifts for its corporeal friends. And so one’s gaze turns to the ultimate in Something-For-The-Person-Who-Has-Everything: A Space Shuttle. Yes, TheEye kids you not. NASA’s […]

TheEye has a profound regard for the beliefs of all, and as it sees all, it will be watching every church (Brixworth Church is randomly pictured) at Christmas. However a certain annoyance has descended on TheEye as a result of fresh news of political correctness attacking age-old traditions for no […]
