Sky’s The Limit For The BNP
I SEE that Sky has followed up its article on the outing and subsequent sacking of Rod Lucas as a member of the BNP, and is now reporting the arrest of two people in Nottinghamshire over the leak of the BNP membership list, writes Chenier.
talkSPORT presenter Rod Lucas was “the first casualty of the media storm“.
Curiously enough, Sky hasn’t reported that another name on the list is a senior employee of Sky itself…
Join the debate and watch the video.

Saddam Hussein Spies On America
SADDAM Hussein had spies in America.
“As U.S. troops became more familiar with Iraq, and the details of Saddam’s foreign espionage efforts came to light, it became known that Saddam had some U.S. citizens on the payroll. Over a dozen suspects were uncovered, and most were charged, if not prosecuted, for espionage. In Michigan, where the largest concentration of Arab-Americans live, four U.S. citizens have been prosecuted in the last few years. Some of Saddam’s agents even took jobs as interpreters in Iraq after 2003.
Where they reported to their leader that he was f***ed in both Arabic and English…

Minnesotan Somalians Rest In Pieces
MINNESOTA Somalians: Rest In Pieces:
Mark Steyn reprots on a disassembled departee:
A Minnesotan suicide bomber (now there’s a phrase) originally from Somalia returned to the old country and blew up himself and 29 other people last October. His family prevailed upon your government to have his parts (or as many of them as could be sifted from the debris) returned to the United States at taxpayer expense and buried in Burnsville Cemetery. Well, hey, in the current climate, what’s the big deal about a federal bailout of jihad operational expenses? If that’s not “too big to fail,” what is?
If you dry him out, he won’t weigh much and can travel in economy class, in someone’s pocket or a 25cl bottle. Have a heart.

THE BNP is not the only political moment ot have its members exposed.

“Conservative civic groups yesterday disclosed the names of some 5,000 members of a progressive teachers union in Seoul, in a bid to tame what they call biased education and leftist activism.

Obama Disses Dave Cameron
MARBURY reads the New Statesman claim that “following his brief meeting with David Cameron in July, Obama exclaimed, ‘What a lightweight!'”
I’m sceptical. It just doesn’t sound very Obama-ish. Whatever he thinks, he doesn’t make a habit of deriding individuals in this manner, even fierce opponents (in fact I can’t think of a single example right now). The story’s author refers vaguely to “diplomatic sources”. Even if Obama was going to insult the Tory leader, it would be very out of character for him to do so in front of officials that weren’t people he knew and trusted. And as we know, Obama’s aides aren’t leakers. Well, we’ll see. But this may not enhance the already less-than-stellar reputation.
They disappear leakers, don’t they…

Saxby Chambliss Is A Metaphor For Metaphors
SHANNOIN McCaffrey find a number of mataphors for Saxby Chambliss, and uses them all in one sentence:
“Georgia Republican Sen. Saxby Chambliss handed the GOP a firewall against Democrats eager to flex their newfound political muscle in Washington, winning a bruising runoff battle Tuesday night that had captured the national limelight.”

Nationwide Terror Probe Nets Hundreds Of PM Irritants
COUNTER-TERRORISM POLICE today rounded up hundreds of Britons suspected of membership in organizations described as “irritating” to Prime Minister Gordon Brown. The exact number was not released, but police officials said that many more are expected, “depending on the Prime Minister’s mood this morning.”
“Our sole purpose is to keep citizens safe from the threat of international terrorism,” said Thomas Ayckroyd, a spokesman for the Home Office. “While these detainees may all be British citizens, they were clearly engaged in treasonous acts designed to destabilize Her Majesty’s government by embarrassing, irritating, or otherwise inconveniencing the Prime Minister.”

Barack Obama Will Be Assassinated By Second Monday In November
HAPPY Barack Obama Day:
In honor of BHO’s many noteworthy accomplishments as President Elect, a mainly black county in Alabama has officially established the second Monday in November as “The Barack Obama Day.”
Of course you usually get a day named in your honour only when you’re dead: Columbus Day; Martin Luther King Day, George Washington Day, Memorial Day, Christmas.
What do these good people know? The Barack Obama Death Cult is at large…

Wind Turbines Promote Global Cooling
WITH global warming now at an end, the world is faced with global cooling and its many dangers.
In King’s Dyke, Whittlesey, two-feet long lumps of ice are cascading from the skies. The root of the plague is humanity’s use of fuels, chiefly an 80 metre high wind turbine, the nightmare machine.

Your Global Warming GCSE Science Paper
WTF? Indeed. The global warming GCSE science paper: take the test:
Last Monday, Graham Stuart, the Tory MP for Beverley and Holderness, read out to the Commons Select Committee for Children, Schools and Families a question from a recent GCSE science paper: “A nuclear power station is to be built. (1) It will provide more employment in the area. But (2) any release of radioactive material would be very dangerous. Which of these two statements argues in favour of siting the nuclear power station in the area?”
Mr Stuart then asked if “the department is really sure that we are providing pupils with a rigorous scientific understanding?” But he was answered by Jim Knight MP, the schools minister, with “Yes. I am absolutely happy that we are, and we have set up Ofqual to provide more public reassurance.”
And not you can’t go to the tolet – flushing it kills dolphins…

Pregnant Jews Out Of Kashmir And How The West Triggered Mumbai
SO why did a gang of lads kill and maim so many pople in Mumbai?
David Aaronovitch looks at how the victism are to blame:
There is a branch of apologetics – which I take crudely to be the belief that the crime is the fault of the victim – that assumes a milder form, and which I’ll call explanetics. So the explanatists’ view of the Mumbai massacres last week is that the cause lies in what concretely has been done to, or in the vicinity of, the young, cool-looking men with the grenades and the machineguns.

Is Labour Tapping Up The Commons Speaker? Harman’s Leaked Email
AN ineffectual Speaker in the Commons is of use to no-one. Although:
The Conservatives have been sent an email by mistake, which details a meeting taking place tomorrow organised by the Leader of the House of Commons Harriet Harman to discuss the Speaker’s Statement to the House. Invited to the meeting are Jacqui Smith and Jack Straw, as well as Cabinet Secretary Gus O’Donnell, Jill Pay, the Serjeant at Arms and the Parliamentary Clerk, Malcolm Jack and a representative from the Speaker’s Office. Strangely the Tories and LibDems have not been invited.
The email was sent by mistake to the office of Shadow Cabinet member Philip Hammond. No doubt he will soon be arrested.
If only that were a joke…

Ps And Qs: David Cameron Joins The Baby P Debate
BABY P. No rest yet. The court case has yet to be played out. The mother, step-father and lodger have yet to be sentenced.
Children’s Secretary Ed Balls has seen a report into the case. He has made his views know. But as is the fashion in modern politics, no-one makes a decision and moves on, they only join the debate.
His lack of a firm hand and inability to deliver a final ruling allows papers like the Sun to emote and start campaigns. They join the debate. We all join the debate. And nothing gets done. Not really.

Gas Leaks At The UN Framework Convention on Climate Change,
DO you smell gas?
Around 13,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) will be added to the Earth’s greenhouse effect from the December 1-12 meeting of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, the UNFCCC said.
That estimate is based on a turnout of 8,000 people, but as of Sunday 10,657 people had registered for the talks.
