The Tap got into the top 40 political blogs a few times, then it was chopped from the list. Anyone who really takes on the system is made invisible in the rankings. I wondered how long our rankings presence would last. Once you blog that 9/11 is false flag, you become invisible. I wonder if comments on here can be made invisible other than to the commenter. There is software like that around.....CarlottaVance said:OGH at number 9:

This is an unbelievable case of total hypocrisy; shades of the NCCL and the BBC in this country.
"It's embarrassing for the Greens. No other party depends as heavily on the claim of being on the right side of morality. The Greens also played a leading role from the start -- as prosecutors -- in the debate over abuse within the Catholic Church, emphatically demanding answers to allegations of sexual abuse of children. And, of course, a Green Party parliamentarian, Antje Vollmer, was also a member of the Bundestag's round table to address the abuses that took place in mainly church-run children's homes in the 1950s and 1960s.
How is the party going to explain that it once tolerated people whose agenda had nothing to do with progress and emancipation, but solely with the exploitation of their position of power and trust in relation to minors?"

Good News!
@MWStory Newspapers are wrong: Alex Salmond effigy was lit with fireworks then detonated in Lewes. I saw it and took pics:

However certain organs of the Press will weightily opine that enything else is too complicated for the English.BenM said:The current YouGov reflects my thinking about the outturn vote share in May.
Perhaps with Labour and Tories reversed.
I can't see the Tories getting much above 34%. Likewise Labour won't get less than 32%.
The dreadful FPTP will again be discredited.

The reason your little blog failed to make the top 40 list is not because of anything from the men in black helicopters but merely a sign that fewer people want to read it.Tapestry said:

I find the fact that someone in the Pentagon has seen fit to release the name and photo of the navy seal who shot Osama bin Laden, bloody disgusting and a betrayal of it's own soldiers. Of course his own father is a flaming nut-case.
This man will now become target for all the jihastist crazies in America, and believe me, there are plenty of them.

Why are the SNP getting sensitive about the Lewes bonfire?
They're celebrating the defeat of the gunpowder plot which was anti-Scottish. "Hark, hark, the dogs do bark, the beggars are coming to town etc."
On the same evening, you had Russell Brand parading around with the Guy Fawkes crowd. Now, he'd make a good Guy for next years fire.
They've alreadly had [edit] Mr Brand, I gather, from the Graun comments.
Last I heard, Lewes was not in the domain of Scots law! And there seem to have been two effigies, and some dispute about when/whether they were burnt.dr_spyn said:
So why was the effigy not burnt? If he thought it was a joke, why did so many with 45 badges work themselves up into a frenzy. The back images showed a Union Flag, a bare bum, compared to Georgian political prints it was quite tame.Carnyx said:
I think you'll find that in fact he took it in fairly good part - with a barbed joke in return.dr_spyn said:Salmond has reintroduced a UK wide law of lesse majeste.
It appears that burning Bush, Brown, Thatcher, Lawson, Putin, Saddam, Putin (last night), Blair, Brezhenev is OK, but smoking out Salmond is beyond satire. Will a new article 58 be prepared for a new Scottish criminal code?
Burning effigies is better than burning real people, 17 Protestants were burnt in Queen Mary's reign in Lewes, as a warning not to deviate from the one true faith. The outraged on Twitter should reflect on Wellington's words publish and be damned.
As ane fule kno Lewes has a LD MP, unless Norman Baker has a secret desire to change sides.
I don't quite understand it all either - or for that matter why Carlisle wanted to burn Marie Stuart, aka Mary Queen of Scots, until the council pulled the effigy a few days ago.

As NPxMP may recall, I'm a long standing critic of the MP pension scheme, even its modified CARE version which I think still hasn't come in to force - a scheme which is just another expenses back-door troughing option.
That's bad enough for all of them but then to portray yourselves as the outsiders, the insurgents, the fresh air against the stale old school whilst holding on to the benefits accrued whilst part of the 'enemy' you now claim to despise is another level.

When Carswell joined the jihadists (sorry UKIP) he should have known that he would be tried for treason if he ever tried to return home.MikeK said:
Yep, we are all on our holidays. LOLisam said:
I've heard farage has a sniper in the commons gallery ready to take out Carswell the minute he stops tweeting negative comments about the Tories, then holds him hostage at UKIP HQ lest he follow up his desire to return home to the Tories.Pulpstar said:
Ah Con Home has a pop at Carswell... how quaint.Scrapheap_as_was said:
"Mark - you're not really expecting us to believe that Carswell agonised for months over making the decision to defect, without realising that he would find himself in a conflicted position once he had done so?
No, I think this is another attempt to portray Carswell in a favourable (blue) light, as the principled but disaffected hero, to provide stark comparison with your real, un-named target, which is of course Mark Reckless.
Reckless who can't have agonised for months, since he was promising to toe the party line the day before he announced his defection. The Reckless who will create a far bigger crisis for the Tory party if he wins the Rochester byelection. And presumably the Reckless who won't feel as conflicted about being a senior officer in the UKIP regime, than Carswell does. "
This comment nails it.
Apparently many Ukip voters are just Tories on holiday too0 -

Out of curiosity, you never miss an opportunity to mention my joke about Reeva Steenkamp, but you never mention the fact, Robert told virtually the same joke.

The voters don't seem to have warmed to Con/Lab since 2010, so 25% might not be unthinkable.MikeK said:
Wether O'Flynn was predicting 20% or not, the true target of UKIP for the elections is to achieve 25% of the vote nationally. A tall order even in my support of the party.anotherDave said:

"In the hunt for Westminster seats, it [UKIP] aims to create a ‘set of political ideas’ that commands the loyalty of 20 per cent of the electorate, with ‘concentrated clusters of support’."
Ladbrokes UKIP vote share bands have 10-15% as current favourite.
I think as the election nears Ladbrokes and Stodge will have to up the ante a bit.
That said the recent PCC election in South Yorkshire reminds us that the sofa is always an option!

This is clearly likely to be less than the margin of error in the calculation, and shows that the fiscal contribution of Eastern European migrants - notwithstanding their high rates of employment and their youthful age-profile - may well be nothing at all."

One effigy was definitely burned - have seen the pictures - very entertaining.Carnyx said:CD13 said:Why are the SNP getting sensitive about the Lewes bonfire?
They're celebrating the defeat of the gunpowder plot which was anti-Scottish. "Hark, hark, the dogs do bark, the beggars are coming to town etc."
On the same evening, you had Russell Brand parading around with the Guy Fawkes crowd. Now, he'd make a good Guy for next years fire.
They've alreadly had [edit] Mr Brand, I gather, from the Graun comments.
Last I heard, Lewes was not in the domain of Scots law! And there seem to have been two effigies, and some dispute about when/whether they were burnt.dr_spyn said:
So why was the effigy not burnt? If he thought it was a joke, why did so many with 45 badges work themselves up into a frenzy. The back images showed a Union Flag, a bare bum, compared to Georgian political prints it was quite tame.Carnyx said:
I think you'll find that in fact he took it in fairly good part - with a barbed joke in return.dr_spyn said:Salmond has reintroduced a UK wide law of lesse majeste.
It appears that burning Bush, Brown, Thatcher, Lawson, Putin, Saddam, Putin (last night), Blair, Brezhenev is OK, but smoking out Salmond is beyond satire. Will a new article 58 be prepared for a new Scottish criminal code?
Burning effigies is better than burning real people, 17 Protestants were burnt in Queen Mary's reign in Lewes, as a warning not to deviate from the one true faith. The outraged on Twitter should reflect on Wellington's words publish and be damned.
As ane fule kno Lewes has a LD MP, unless Norman Baker has a secret desire to change sides.
I don't quite understand it all either - or for that matter why Carlisle wanted to burn Marie Stuart, aka Mary Queen of Scots, until the council pulled the effigy a few days ago.
Hopefully the other one was too. Suspect the cybernat bleating has ensured a big papermache Sturgeon will be torched next year - which will also be hilarious.

@TSE
The question on the tipping for R&S is what did the narrative of the accumulated tips amount to:
To my mind it was something like
10 unit 11-10 UKIP
10 unit 3-1 Con
1.5 unit 14-1 Labour
-0.5 UKIP
+19 Con
-0.5 Labour
Which has a fair value of around £0.00
"Pile on UKIP at 11-10, and cover Con and Lab to stakes at 3-1 and 14-1" would have been better giving something like
20 units UKIP 11-10
8 units Con 3-1
2 units Lab 14-1

You've tipped up all the horses), and "most of my money today" on a 3-1 shot kind of implies a book of something like

1.5 unit 14-1 Labour
-0.5 UKIP

Because you cracked the joke of your own accord thinking it was funny, and failed to apologise when someone said they thought it was in bad taste, while Robert was responding to someone who asked what the distasteful joke in question wasTheScreamingEagles said:

If there was any doubt..
So why do you never mention the fact Robert told the same joke?
Robert replied to someone who asked what the joke was.. You were the one who initially cracked it, hence I pulled you up on it
Now you play the victim and say I only pulled you up because you're Asian and muslim.. well I couldn't care less about that. It was a horrible thing to post and if any white Christian said something similar about a Pakistani woman I would say the same to them... the thing is no one does and no one would
So you were wrong, again.
So answer this simple question, why do you always mention me in relation to that joke, and not Robert?
So if someone called another person a rude name, then someone else later told the story of the incident, the fault lies with the initial name caller, not the person who reports what has happened
Stop trying to play the victim, be a gentlemen and apologise for the disgraceful thing you said.
Reeva was someone's daughter, and joking about killing her then wanking on her is completely out of order.. you are a grown man and should be bigger than refusing to apologise just because someone you disagree with politically found it in bad taste0 -

The parameters of the study are mostly narrow, the calculations full of broad unsubstantiated assumptions and the conclusions mostly bollocks, and presented over the timeframe needed to give the biggest headline impact they can to suit the agenda of the study sponsors.0 -
For Dear old Larry the mere mention of the word Sikh seems to have him frothing at the mouth.
Not sure that has anything to do with the EU, and dear old Nige is always banging on about trading links with the Commonwealth, so presumably India is on Nigel's approved list.

BenM: if you remove the link with immigration during the post-1997 period, isn't the point the same i.e. that the report shows that the economic impact of all immigrants is a minus figure?BenM said:

@isam, @TSE
What bad joke am I being accused of cracking?
How about this one guys:
At the British Women's Conference, the first speaker from Bristol stood up:
"At last year's conference we spoke about being more assertive with our husbands. Well after the conference I went home and told my husband that I would no longer cook for him and that he would have to do it himself. After the first day I saw nothing. After the second day I saw nothing. But after the third day I saw that he had cooked a wonderful roast lamb."
The crowd cheered.
The second speaker from Hammersmith stood up:
"After last year's conference I went home and told my husband that I would no longer do his laundry and that he would have to do it himself. After the first day I saw nothing. After the second day I saw nothing. But after the third day I saw that he had done not only his own washing but my washing as well."
The crowd cheered.
The third speaker from Rochester stood up:
"After last year's conference I went home and told my husband that I would no longer do his shopping and that he would have to do it himself. After the first day I saw nothing. After the second day I saw nothing. But after the third day I could see a little bit out of my left eye."0 -

"Dear old Kelly does sound a teeny bit vacuous there"
Possibly, but as there is at the moment a Sikh festival, where it is incumbent on them to feed all the poor ( including non Sikh's), perhaps she could be forgiven for being inclusive?0 -
