David Cameron meets with leading anti gay marriage activist

HOW in tune with public opinion is David Cameron? Well, not long since Barack Obama approved gay marriage, Dave had meeting with the Dalai Lama. He’s man who says homosexuality is mortal sin. The man who appears in the West as a unifying force of good – has anyone spotted him in the same place as Nelson Mandela? – once told the Vancouver Sun:

“I think that we should follow according to one’s holy teachings. For a Buddhist,the same sex, that is sexual misconduct… And also marriage, even in the heterosexual cult of marriage, they use the mouth and the anus, this is sexual misconduct.”

Gay marriage is a big deal. Does Dave know..?

Why France voted for Hollande: revealed

FRANCOIS Hollande is now running France. Germany gets Greece, Portugal and Ireland. Hollande gets France. It’s a topsy-turvey world in the go-ahead Europe Union.

But what did the French vote for. The Times says it was a “revolt against austerity”. The Indy says “France turns left”. The Telegraph says the EU is “on course for turmoil” (where has that paper been?). But the pick of the bunch is the Mail, which declares that the French have voted for a return to “ruinous spending”.

Daily Mail calls Osama bin Laden Obama bin Laden

LIZ Jones, the Daily Mail’s regular troll bait, is talking about the “cooing couples” who upset her by looking at ease with each other’s company in public. In one paragraph she writes about the death of Barack Obama:

I far more admire couples who are not joined at the hip. My role model at the moment is Hillary Clinton, who failed to tell husband Bill that special forces were about to assassinate Obama Bin Laden. I love that.

Obama bin Laden… Who he? Is it just a slip of the tongue, or part of a sinister movement we call The Barack Obama Death Cult, the media plot that seeks out the apparent impending murder of Obama and presents it inevitable fact?

Why miserable Ken Livingstone lost – it wasn’t the Jews, it was him

KEN Livingstone has shuffled off the political stage to dedicate himself to his newts and his media career. So. Why did face ache lose? Anorak recalls draconian Ken telling Londoners not to flush the toilet for numbers 1s. It was Ken who told us: “There’s a real chance that human civilisation will not survive beyond the end of this century.” Ken is not all that keen on people. He told us that he planned to “educate the mass of Londoners” about Islam. Because without Ken, Londoners would be too stupid to investigate a religion for themselves. Ken is the joyless one who said in 2002, when he was mayor, “New Year’s Eve is not an event, it is a public order problem.”

And then there was his problem with the Jews. Hugh Muir looks at the matter in the Guardian:

How much damage did he inflict by failing to make peace with the Jewish political establishment, still sore over conflicts past: the insult to a Jewish reporter, the embrace of Muslim cleric Yusuf al-Qaradawi? When in March he secretly met a group of senior figures who hoped to reach accommodation, why didn’t he make nice? Instead he upset some again by referring to the Israeli government as Zionists and implying that “rich” Jews wouldn’t vote for him anyway. “I can’t say words that I do not feel in my heart,” he once declared.

Ed Miliband’s bong show – The best local election photos of 2012

THE local elections were rolling news dullsville. Only 30 percent of us bothered to vote vote. The rest – a whopping 70% – are allergic to school halls and opted to remains elsewhere. This group could have opted for a postal vote. But 89% of Britons only use email, so that was weird. The highlights – and there were some, were the BNP getting annihilated (there’s always panto); the LibDems getting beaten by a man dressed as a penguin in Edinburgh; Ed Miliband getting egged by a man who really does have egg on his hands; Ed Miliband (gain) being photographed with a bong; and that divisive dictatorial miserabilist Ken Livingstone finally being able to concetrate on his media career…

Obama smokes a dose of marijuana at his creepy Nerd Prom

TO the Nerd Prom, when Capitol Hill’s finest take the rise out of President Obama at the annual Washington Correspondents’ dinner. Obama harped on about Mitt Romney, his likely opponent in the Presidential election:

“It’s great to be here this evening in the vast, magnificent Hilton ballroom. Or as Mitt Romney would call it, a little fixersupper.”

It’s hideous exercise in sucking up. As Obama said:

“I have the nuclear codes. Why am I telling knock-knock jokes to Kim Kardashian?”

Insult of the Day: North Korea says South Korean President Lee Myung-bak has 2MB of knowledge

INSULT of the Day: North Korea’s official media says South Korean President Lee Myung-bak is “human scum” and an “underwit with 2MB of knowledge”. As any fool knowl, in North Korea, they can now store up to a massive 8MM of knowledge in the country’s big computer…

Only 18% of French are Nazis – France election shocker!

QUELLE surprise in France where only 18% are rabid Nazis. In the race for the French Presidency, 18.12 per cent of French voters opted for the National Front in the first round of the presidential elections.

When the Germans last collaborated closely with France for a united Europe, the figure was as high as 50%. Some work to go, then, for Marine Le Pen as she seeks to free the country from the yoke of EU imperialism by selling Spain and Greece to China in a 2-4-1 deal and taking out an option on Belgium.

One more reason not to vote for Ken Livingstone

KEN Livingstone is a divisive operator who espouses illiberal values. He want to be London mayor. He won’t get in. Labour voters should shun him. Why? Well:

 “I think Ed represents genuine Labour values. That’s why I voted for him. I believe he will make a real change if we win.” – Ken Livingstone, April 17, 2012

“I could go to him when I was Mayor and meet him one on one, not surrounded by civil servants and that is how we got Crossrail. My preference is Balls because whoever we select might be Prime Minister next year and, of all of the candidates, he is most ready.” – Kevin Livingstone quoted on the website supporting Ed Balls’ campaign to lead the Labour Party

Rich Government minister Caroline Spelman wants to keep a secret – sack her now

JONATHAN Spelman, 17, is the son of Meriden MP and Environment Secretary Caroline Spelman. The Rugby Football Union has banned Jonny Spelman from playing rugby until October 19 2013. You see, he took illegal drugs – anabolic steroids and a growth hormone.

He cheated. Spelman has played for England’s youth team at under 16 level. His story is in the public interest. But his wealthy mum – a government minister – didn’t want you know about it. The woman – part of a Government that thinks it’s fine for the police to read your emails without a warrant – wants her son’s misdeeds to remain secret.

Barack Obama warns of war in the Maldives

BARACK Obama has renamed the Malvinas “the Maldives.” In attempting to suck up to Latin America at the Summit of the Americas in Cartagena, Colombia, Obama called the Falkland Islands The Maldives.

The Daily Telegraph calls this an “uncharacteristic error”. This is Obama who talked of the 57 states of the USA, said Austrians speak Austrian and mistook a window for a door?

Says our man in the Falklands: “We shall fight them on the sunbeds! We shall never surrender our cocktails!”

Lord Ahmed’s little problem with Pakistan’s pet jihadis Lashkar-e-Taiba

MEMRI reports on an article it spotted in Pakistan’s The Express Tribune. In “Britain’s Lord Nazir Ahmed Offers £10 Million Bounty for Obama, Bush”, Memri notes:

 “In an expression of solidarity with Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) Chief Hafiz Muhammad Saeed, British parliamentarian of Kashmiri origin Lord Nazir Ahmed has announced a reward for the [capture] of U.S. President Barack Obama and his predecessor, George W. Bush.”

Ahmed, allegedly, made his offer in light of the US posting a $10 million reward for the capture of Pakistani militant leader Hafiz Mohammad Saeed, founder of the Lashkar-e-Taiba group (“Army of the righteous”). It organised the 2008 massacre in Mumbai, in which 174 people including nine gunmen were killed. Lashkar-e-Taiba tortured the Jewish victims before murdering them. As Saeed said: “Since our life revolves around Islam, therefore both dawa and jihad are essential, we cannot prefer one over the other.” In 2011, Saeed led a rally condemning America for killing Osama Bin Laden.
