I think we've found Cameron's look for the wedding

Camping out in front of Westminster Abbey? If only there was some kind of soup kitchen set up in the area where people could get a hearty meal.

Amazing fiddling of the figures here:

New figures from the National House Building Council show that the number of new homes registered in March was the highest since November 2007.

[..]

About 2,800 of those were for accommodation in the athletes village at the 2012 Olympics in London.

Gie ye the fuckin' boak, so it wid

nadine bloody dorries

apparently her mental abstinence bill passed by 6 because no one turned up

http://educationforchoice.blogspot.com/2011/04/abstain-from-abstinence-please-dorries.html

The Taliban would be proud.

mental abstinence

slightly misread this, and it struck me as a good summary of dorries' m.o.

Taliban would also be proud of this mug:

Former mayor Ken Livingstone sparked controversy today by claiming that the killing of Osama bin Laden made President Obama look like a "mobster".

Ken is right on this one. No Trial = No Justice

can't believe obama didn't initiate extradition proceedings with pakistan

what is the world coming to?

re: dorries, the beeb says that ten minute rule bills normally pass unopposed, so the fact that 60-odd people voted against is a sign of fairly robust opposition.

yeah this is a good summation of What Actually Happened http://blog.newhumanist.org.uk/2011/05/bill-on-teaching-abstinence-in-sex.html

she is the devil

MPs voted 67-61 in favour of the motion, with a number of the ayes apparently coming from members of the Conservative Christian Fellowship.

Oh, I think my mental new Tory MP (who theyworkforyou.com tell me has voted in 224 Commons votes and has never voted against the govt) is one of this charming crowd. Is there a list of these 67 for voters anywhere? Can't see it on the aforementioned theyworkforyou.

Ayes are listed here: http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm201011/cmhansrd/cm110504/debtext/110504-0001.htm#11050491000001

haha there are some class acts on that list

Nadine Dorries (Mid Bedfordshire) (Con): I beg to move,

* pea-brained shite removed *

In fact, in some newsagents now there are more sex magazines available than any other kind of magazine.

Chris Bryant (Rhondda) (Lab): Well, stop going to those shops then.

BOOM-TSSSSSHHHH! Thangyewladeezandgenulman I'll be here all week.

weird, I thought Redwood was some kind of Rand-ian Libertarian.

Can I say I welcome the turn that this thread is about to take re: "Randy-an"

Randy and libertarian? Redwood always struck me as having a stick up his arse - not literally, but you can't tell with these Tories, canyouladeezangenulman, what about that Mrs. Thatch then etc.

@nadine_dorries Not only do newsagents carry more porn than magazines, but yesterday I went into a fruit + veg shop and it had HUNDREDS of bananas in it.

nadine dorries ought to be taught to say no... to other women's husbands!!!

Isn't Louise Bagshawe known for her racy chick-lit? Maybe they've all seen the light?

the termination (do you see) of dorries' real twitter is a great loss to the internet i feel

"Lisa Costello woke up next to her husband’s corpse."

doing her bit to put everyone off, then.

"Darlene Norris woke up next to someone else's husband"

BBC Scotland coverage said that it looks like the Lib Dems have lost 12 of their 13 council seats in Sheffield. GOOD WORK LADS.

Why is the been pushing 'hung' over 'NOC'?

I've been asking the same. Maybe cos hung parliaments are a thing now?
