Oh Dear : new labour conference

It had always struck me as strange how a party that cannot manage its own finances is always telling us how well it is managing ours.

They talk complete bollocks.

Still, you can trust bill clinton - I mean, he didn't tell any lies / stretch the truth / invent a new definition of sex / indulge in oral sex with a intern while married - in the white house no less...

And he has this to say... so we must all be wrong about blair and co. They cannot possibly be sleazy if a man of his character has this to say:

"
Former US President Bill Clinton has paid tribute to Tony Blair and congratulated the Government on its "stunning success" in running the country.

At Labour's Party conference, Mr Clinton said it was "no accident" that Britain had led the fight against climate change and tackled unemployment under Mr Blair's party.

He applauded Chancellor Gordon Brown for his "brilliant economic leadership".

The former US President said by any standard "your Prime Minister, your Government, your party have been a stunning success".

I wonder if cherie blair was overheard muttering 'that's a lie'....?

**wendigo100** · 27 September 2006, 18:43

Oh yes, climate change. They sent the idiot Prescott to handle that. Remind me what they achieved!

**mcquiggd** · 27 September 2006, 18:50

Erm... feck all except a lot of hot air...

I see bob geldork was clinging on to brown today. I wonder where bono was?

Probably busy with U2s move of some of their operations to Holland for tax reasons. Im sure he will turn up at some point to tell us all to donate more money / pay more taxes 'to help the poor people'.

bono, me old mucker, when you are down to your last £1,000,000 - then you can tell me to cough up more cash you stupid fecker.

Found what you're looking for? U2 inspire Irish ire by avoiding tax

· Band shifts financial affairs to Netherlands
· Bono criticised for deals while calling for debt relief

That's another reason to throw the feckers out...

Actually I heard that Bonio and the rest of U2 were doing a benefit gig for the homeless in New Oleans. No doubt they are asking poeple to donate as much as they can to help the homeless. A nice start would be if they themselves sold off some of the vast chunks of Dublin which they own.

for Bonio to give 1million is like me giving 10p. So I'll donate a tenner. Lets see if he will match it.

Also Geldoff has been whining that the politicians are not giving the funds they promised to eradicate poverty. What a suprice! A politician lying. Deluded fecker that he is!

You can't eradicate poverty.

**BoredBloke** · 27 September 2006, 19:16

Nope - It's like trying to eradicate anything which happens to be at the back of a queue. You'll just change the person at the back.

However I'd like to see Bonio and Geldoff make a start by giving a significant chunk of their cash over instead of pontificating to the rest. Its easy to be generous when you have a vast fortune
