No, not in favour of the Euro, which will upset Lord Fondlebum of Boys and Hartlepool. A website is offering painstakingly detailed replicas of Colonial Currency used in the sci-fi series Battlestar Galactica. Considering that the UK is very likely to lose our AAA credit rating in the next few […]

All Sorted, Then

With an expansive doff of the fedora to Moonbattery, it seems that the solution to our “key economic, social and environmental problems” turns out to be surprisingly simple, according to the British taxpayer-financed New Economics Foundation. All we have to do is stop engaging in so much productive activity. To […]

It’s A Mad, Mad World

February 14, 2010 at 7:15 pm

“Yet let’s be content, and the times lament, you see the world turn’d upside down.” Truly the world is competely twisted. We read that the President of Russia, Dmetri Ledvedev, has ordered Government bureaucrats to privatize profitable companies. Medvedev’s order for a greater sale of key assets comes after he […]

White Children Not Welcome

February 2, 2010 at 7:37 pm

In a marvellous bit of racism, Bill Gates has set up a scholarship fund, but has made white teenagers ineligible to apply. The Gates Millennium Scholarship fund is financed by a $1 Billion endowment which Bill Gates made in 1999, however: “Students are eligible to be considered for a GMS […]

In Search Of A Sound Economic Policy

January 22, 2010 at 10:30 am

Dominating the news cycle at the moment are stories of how the socialists on both sides of the Atlantic are continuing their assault on the wealth-makers of our economies.

A Culture Of Dependency

January 6, 2010 at 10:15 pm

Three things which always hold true – death, taxes and people don’t vote against their own interests.

That’s why at the General Election the payroll vote will bolster the core Labour vote, […]

Now Climate Change Causes Polar Bear Cannibalism

December 9, 2009 at 6:28 pm

Time for an update of The List – the media has again resorted to shrieking that the nonexistent global warming crisis has turned cuddly polar bears into bloodthirsty cannibals: A group of tourists were left horrified when they came across the grisly sight of a polar bear eating a cub in […]

…And Then They Came For My Toilet Paper

December 9, 2009 at 1:29 pm

The drum beat against toilet paper is continuing, this time by those oh so responsible and respectable folks at Greenpeace, who are well known for their rational actions: The issue over tissue in the bathroom – the really super-soft stuff – is more like the fight about the big SUVs loved by […]

Give Up Coffee And Save A Polar Bear

December 8, 2009 at 6:27 pm

According to the Scotsman, every time we have a cup of filter coffee a penguin loses its wings. Or something. Dr Reay, a senior lecturer in carbon management at Edinburgh University, claims that the average cup of black filter coffee is responsible for 125 grams of carbon emissions. But the […]

Meet Our New Overlords

November 19, 2009 at 9:21 pm

So this is our future, folks. Every spare second of BBC propaganda news for the next forever will be dominated by the senile mutterings of this bald tax-obsessed bloodsucking alien and his demented side-kick who has morphed her face to take (roughly) human form based on a smudged picture of Cherie Blair. As yet, she hasn’t worked out […]
