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 […]

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 […]

Mother Doesn’t Know Best

July 13, 2011 at 12:05 pm

The Express has only three headlines on continuous daily revolution: Diana, Immigration and BureaucracyGoneMad. If they had a sister paper in Colorado it would need a pull-out colour supplement to fully take the piss out of the recently released Colorado Department of Human Services Proposed Child Care Center Rules.
