The increasingly militant Inspector Gadget police blog complains about “cuts” but he hasn’t seen real budget austerity yet. Spanish style. TheEye isn’t sure if readers outside of Spain realise exactly how screwed that country really is. La Línea de la Concepción, with a population of 65,000 is the town straight […]
Question Time tonight comes for the first time from a foreign country – Lutonistan. On the panel we have transport secretary Justine Greening MP, shadow Olympics minister Tessa Jowell MP, secretary-shagger Paddy Ashdown, Tony Robinson (the irritating broadcaster one, not the EDL one) and the businessman Terry Smith, chief executive […]
….and so everyone who thinks they are someone is wearing a stupid hat. Really? Really? Somebody actually thought that this was a clever idea? Hat-tip to @playupfootball
Tornado landing at RAF Gibraltar They are a 100 year old failed experiment but because they helped out in the ’40s we haven’t politically been able to roll the Royal Air Force back into the Fleet Air Arm and a logistical branch of the Army. TheEye believes in spliting the […]
TheEye doesn’t usually recommend things but is just a few pages away from finishing a fantastic book called Bane Of Souls. It’s a fantasy book written by Thaddeus White and TheEye thinks it is brilliant. An epic tale of friendship, honour and huge numbers of people getting murdered. TheEye has […]
Question Time tonight comes from West Bromwich – and specifically from the new £77 million Sandwell College. On the panel are Justice Secretary Ken Clarke, shadow health secretary Andy Burnham, general secretary of the Unite trade union Len McCluskey, economist Ruth Lea and Midlands Business Woman of the year Julie […]
As you will all know, yesterday was the anniversary of the Battle of Waterloo. I won’t get all anti French here, but … well you all know who won (and lost)! What I will do here is bring to light the fact that the old Duke of Wellington’s Regiment, which […]
And so we commemorate the dead of the Falklands Conflict – ended 30 years ago. TheEye (as you can guess from this being a partly military blog) had family active in the combat zone. The British Forces had 258 losses and 775 wounded. The other side had…yeah, whatever… lots more […]
Question Time tonight comes from Stockton-on-Tees. This market town is Europe’s largest producer of huge chavvy earrings, amphetamines and inca hats. It has an exceptionally low unemployment rate for the North East of only 73%. On the panel we have Housing Minister Grant Shapps MP, television executive and former Director […]
