Another Victory For The Gipper

January 25, 2009 at 12:35 am

TheEye refused to blog on the love-fest that the MSM and especially the BBC had with the anointing of the Obamessiah. It’s still possible not to break that pledge by just reporting that the inauguration of The One was watched by 37.8 million Americans. The Reagan inauguration in 1981 was […]

Exclusive: Dog Bites Man

January 22, 2009 at 2:00 am

It’s taken a while, but finally the ultimate headline…”Dog Bites Man”. The increasingly pointless Daily LabourGraph, which TheEye purchases now purely for the crossword, announces on a Jug-Eared-Bloke-Is-Now-Leader-Of-Free-World and Rockets-Fired-At-Israel-Shocker day that “Chirac Bitten By Pet Dog“. Apparently he was “violently bitten” by his white Maltese dog ‘Sumo’, which is […]

Coronation Of The Jug-Eared Saviour Of Humanity

January 19, 2009 at 4:45 pm

The Miraculous Coming of the Obamessiah is being greeted with damp knickers by the BBC and much of the MSM. If you are a retard, why not get an Osama inauguration tattoo to celebrate? At least because he’s being sworn in with his full name by a nutcase chaplain, leftists […]

The Israeli Elections

January 18, 2009 at 10:01 pm

It must be said that The Croydonian is a sound cove, and an excessive quaffing of alcohol with him would strike anyone as a night well spent. TheEye hasn’t enjoyed one yet but intends to do so as soon as possible. However Mr C has a post on his site […]

Here We Go Again: Falklands Edition

January 17, 2009 at 1:57 pm

There continues to be speculation in the British Press that HMS Endurance could be scrapped. Two articles and a paragraph or two quoted from The News (Portsmouth’s unoriginally named daily newspaper) “HMS Endurance May Be A Total Write-Off” “The navy is considering scrapping HMS Endurance because of the damage she […]

Land This One If You Can, Mr Brown

Picture and text borrowed from Curly’s Corner Shop due to its excellence. It appears to be his original work and his site, although occasionally parochial to South Shields, is well worth checking out. Unfortunately 155 politicians survived The captain said that the failure of the Economy and it’s subsequent crash […]

“Most Advanced Warship In The World” Apparently – Welcome

January 17, 2009 at 11:53 am

Well, its taken six years to construct but HMS Daring, first of the Type45 destroyers have left Scotstoun for Portsmouth for sea trials before entering service next year. The crew have been on board since 2006. Built in Labour voting constituencies the Clyde shipyards, the project has ploughed £6 billion […]

Bank Holiday Monday: Gibraltar Style

January 12, 2009 at 7:44 am

Some readers of TheEye and St Crispin reside in Gibraltar, and they will be snoozing this morning. Or down the pub early. Maybe both. Why? Because a few years ago Gib took the EU to court in a battle to maintain the right of the Gibraltar Parliament to set its […]

PC Nonsense from Bristol City Council

January 12, 2009 at 1:25 am

It takes a lot to shock TheEye, but occasionally a state of gibbering apoplexy can be induced. The example-du-jour comes courtesy of Bristol County Council via Bristol Dave (a sweary blog so a health warning for tender souls). TheEye can’t better the prose, so is going to reproduce it in […]

Where The Money Goes: Scottish Edition

January 12, 2009 at 12:24 am

In Tales-Of-The-Blindingly-Obvious type news, readers will be unsurprised to discover that Scotland is poised to become the third most state-dependent country in the world, with only Cuba and Iraq spending more on public services. By 2012, public spending is expected to rise to 67 per cent of Scotland’s gross domestic […]
