    Radio 4 - Book of the Week

    BOTW is one of the highlights of my morning, usually.

    Ok, there are a few duff ones, but on the whole an engaging and entertaining 15 minutes of quality output from the BBC propaganda engine.

    However, this week we have Cherie Blair reading from her biog 'Speaking for Myself'.

    The R4 puff says "Cherie Blair tells her story in her own words".

    And boy, does she!

    This vainglorious harridan has put me off my eggy soldiers twice now. I'm foregoing the tradition of decades in Bogey Towers by turning over to Radio 5 Live tomorrow to listen to some gibbering idiot sports commentator instead.

    That vile woman could boast for England at Olympic standards.

    The greedy, publicity-seeking, grasping, aspirational, letter-box-gobbed tart just makes me want to puke in my cornflakes.

    Every other sentence in her self-promotional diatribe is crafted to boost and promote this useless leech of a woman.

    I hope it's being well received in Crewe & Nantwich.

      I learnt a new word today:

      Harridan
      [n. HAR-ih-den] A sharp-tongued woman, especially one who is older. This noun describes fierce, ill-tempered women who are always scolding and disapproving

      I agree!
      It's about time I changed this sig...

        Crewe

        On the plus side, her gob did at least provide the inspiration for the media centre at Lords cricket ground

            She seems to have been on the TV or radio every time I've tuned in this week. She must have a book out or something.

              "Look at these venomous harridans. They went to university. Hard to believe they're all under 25."

              The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

              But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

                Over-education leads to ugliness, premature aging and beard growth.

                Dawn Primarolo?

                  Dawn Primarolo can hardly be called over-educated with her degree in Sociology from a polytechnic. To think that such numpties are/were reponsible for policies affecting millions is mind-boggling.
                  Hard Brexit now!
