DEM not gonna CON dis NATION: Rolling UK politics in the short-lived post-Murdoch era

(incidentally, it's hardly in colleges' interests to report drops in enrolment, and the lack of EMA is likely to be a factor in retention as much as getting students enrolled in the first place i.e. this cd look an even bigger mess come next February)

Occupy Stock Exchange planned for this Saturday apparently. Will be interesting to see how that develops - they've had a few weeks to learn useful lessons from the US.

exciting! if it survives i may come up monday or tuesday.

Yes, like "The Stock Exchange is closed on a Saturday."

xp :)

Presumably they know that and are using the weekend to set up the encampment before it gets busy. The City on a Sunday has a very 28 Days Later kind of vibe.

two days to think of some witty signs before anyone turns up to work

Could be a black Sabbath:

Can someone bring some INVOCATION/prayers and EXORCISE the buildings to be OCCUPIED, these buildings are full of evil entity it will zapped away all your energy. Somebody has to do exorsicism on these buildings comes Saturday.

The empty Broadgate Centre is awesome at the weekends, esp. if < 7 and have a scooter

exorsicism (sic)

Levitate the Pentagon!

liam fox is back to complete normal apparently

Labour showing off:

Thanks for making the first week as your campaign co-ordinator so memorable. We've raised over £8,500.

the mirror tomorrow says that over the course of five days, oliver letwin took more than a hundred secret documents and dumped them in bins in a park. amazed at how flaky this government has become after only a little more than a year in power. they need to slow down, we haven't even finished with fox yet.

loliver loltwin

finally found the best way to disseminate his hegelian dialectic

Did he water the bins after?

I always thought that Letwin was camping up the whole bumbling idiot thing to try and appeal to Boris fans but apparently not.

Mr Letwin was merely carrying out a campaign defending personal freedoms against the tyranny of EU-imposed "slops buckets" in every government department, said a spokesman for the minister.

He's such a wit.

Fox has resigned.

yesss

one down

hunners of millions left to go

he definitely did not get fired though, because that would make dave look like john major. or something.

Mr Werritty was also was present with Mr Fox on 18 overseas trips, including two family holidays and trips to Singapore, Dubai, Florida , Bahrain, Israel, Washington, Hong Kong and Sri Lanka.

did they go everywhere together?

well there was that implication...

wonder what their conversation is like

nah actually I don't

word of a possible cabinet reshuffle tonight, apparently

There's an intriguing rumour about the Fox-Werrity relationship (not the nudge-nudge insinuation that's been there from the start)

do tell...

I'm not one for tittle tattle

Oh go on...

The CIA conspiracy bollocks?

No. I assume it's bollocks, tbh.

lol that is amazing. Poor woman though.

SHE MARRIED LIAM FOX SHE DESERVES EVERYTHING SHE GETS

People threw websites in lieu of confetti!

xp yeah that thought crossed my mind too!

Phil Hammond new Defence Secretary.

Clearly a Murdoch influence:

Did we cover Tony Blair helping controversial government of Kazakhstan yet or do we just shrug, think 'how very surprising' and move on to the Guardian shop?

LOL Tories

"Definitely not a disaster" = total disaster.

I always suspected Europe would come back and bite the Tories. On the down side, all this nonsense makes a referendum that bit more likely.

Yeah, when half of your backbenchers defy a three line whip to vote against you that is "definitely not a disaster"

The funny thing is that a row with the French should play quite well with the back benches. It wouldn't surprise me if the Sarkosy argument was staged.

Didn't work though did it? Is there any doubt that the current batch of Tory MPs is the most right wing ever? In spite of Cameron's "reforms".

Though what party isn't "the most right wing ever", tbf
