Pearls Of Wisdom. From The Stirring Trouble Team

Today we present more pearls of wisdom. From the Stirring Trouble team. Anyone who goes into politics while still young should be investigated regularly throughout their careers. Both by doctors and cops. Somewhere deep in the dungeons of 10 Downing Street public school boys are cloned to rule Britain forever. Mayors of big cities are like criminal godfathers who break the law as a matter of principle. Why the hell should the government decide whether people do or don’t work? It’s a human basic right not to do anything and claim benefit. Menacingly the time is approaching when Tony Blair will be forced to sport a comb-over. Going on a holiday amounts to getting smashed every night in a different place, not necessarily better than the one you live in. Everything Tony Blair did since he...

Angry Rants Of A Londoner: The Mayor Is Hopeless

Adam Lovejoy writes: Pardon me for asking, but what the hell has the mayor of London, Boris Johnson, actually done for our once great city, since he was elected last year? What is it exactly that he has changed in the British capital that made it a better place to live in? Words, words, words, said the Bard once, and this is what exactly we got, and are still getting, from Mr Johnson: plenty of words, and sometimes hints but not much action. I will do this and I will do that. And may be I will not even stand for the second term – wink, wink – because I might be tempted to do something different, like becoming Prime Minister. That man, Johnson, had the nerve to tell us that he could use his position as a Mayor of London to stage a bid for the leadership of the Conservative party....

We Remind Our Readers How We Tried To Avert A Disaster Happening In London. And Failed

In March last year I posted an article on this website warning our London readers that it was not a good idea to elect Boris Johnson as their Mayor in the May 2008 election. How right I was then and how wrong our readers turned out to be. The voted Boris in. Now they have only themselves to blame. Johnson proved to be a total disaster. Even worse than his predecessor, Labour’s Ken Livingstone.Today I post that article again, just to show how alert I was to the dangers of picking the wrong man for the job of London Mayor. Vote For Red Ken. Boris Will Prove To Be A Disaster I never thought I would say this but it would probably be better for everyone if Ken Livingstone stayed on as London’s Mayor after the election on May 1. This is very hard for me to admit because I have always...

Vote For Ken As London Mayor. Boris Would Be A Disaster

I never thought I would say this but it would probably be better for everyone if Ken Livingstone stayd on as London’s Mayor after the election on May 1. This is very hard for me to admit because I have always been a fierce critic of Mr Livingstone and I honestly thought that he was the worst possible choice for the Mayor of London. I even seriously contemplated offering my help to any worthwhile candidate who would be willing to take on Red Ken this year. Among my many jobs in the past I did some PR work for big companies and helped President Boris Yeltsin win his second term in office, when his popularity rating was close to zero. I was prepared to work for free this time and even came up with a rallying cry for my future candidate for London Mayor: ‘A modern city needs a modern mayor!’ But...
