….because they say you should always look for the good news in everything. And you know you’re having a bad day when: A middle-aged man was beaten to death allegedly by his four wives at village Kabirpur under sadar upazila of the district early Tuesday. The deceased was identified as […]

Christmas Cards

December 23, 2010 at 10:35 am

Much attention has been given to the Christmas cards given out by the leaders of the two main political parties (and the rapidly imploding other one), as it always is every year. This, for example, is Clegg’s effort: There’s probably enough material in the detail there to keep an amateur […]

Peer Reviewed Scientific Papers

December 23, 2010 at 10:14 am

We hear much about how Warmist scientific papers are “peer reviewed”, as though the scrutiny of work by one grant-seeking conformist by another is somehow a good thing. But to give a marker of how rigorous the standards of such publications are, a group of British schoolchildren have become the youngest […]

Official: It’s Not Art, It’s A Lightbulb

December 21, 2010 at 10:08 am

All but the most hard core Islington coffee-morning types seem to agree that what passes for modern “art”, isn’t. Indeed, passing through the Tate Modern (the usually missing “The” has been replaced here for grammatical accuracy) is likely to reduce a true art lover to garlic tears of rage and […]

TheEye disagrees with the so-called “crime” of Holocaust Denial. Not because of the truth or otherwise of any historical event.

In 2007 director Michael Moore released Sicko, a film that claimed to compare the free market health care system of the United States with the “universal” approaches in countries such Cuba and the UK. His rather transparent agenda was to show that Cuba, and the NHS, were vastly superior to […]

RIP GOT

December 17, 2010 at 9:00 pm

And finally it comes, the news that we’ve been fearing and yet expecting for a couple of weeks. The Grumpy Old Twat has hung up his blogging boots for the last time. “Gotty’s keyboard has been hung up. It’s tired and all twatted out, just like Gotty …” It’s a […]

Ireland may be regretting its slavish capitulation to all things European tonight after the European Court once again enthusiastically meddled matters that should only be decided by national parliaments: Ireland’s constitutional ban on abortion violates pregnant women’s right to receive proper medical care in life-threatening cases, the European Court of Human […]
