Jacqui Shock Least Wanted LabourList Lisbon Cock-Up

US shock-jock Michael Savage has said he will 'sue' Jaqui Smith for including him on the Home office's list of people banned from entering the UK (the so-called 'least wanted' list)*. I think he won't but it's a nice idea.

Here's peter Bowes on the BBC's Today programme. And an article in The Times and comment from View From Middle England.

Are there no limits to the talents and intellectual reach of our Home Secretary, given her love of ID cards, intrusive surveillance and desire to tell us what to do all the time? Obviously not, given that she has no talent and no intellect.

As for Derek Draper, it looks like he has been defenestrated from LabourList, according to Iain Dale.

Angels in Marble thinks the Conservatives are frightened of talking about the EU and the Lisbon Constitution. A fair comment, given that they'll be compelled to toe the line - which will include part-privatising the Post Office.



* The blacklist includes: Abdullah Qadri al-Ahdal, Yunis al-Astal, Samir al-Quntar, Stephen Donald Black, Wadgy Abd el-Hamied Mohamed Ghoneim, Erich Gliebe, Mike Guzovsky, Safwat Hijazi, Nasr Javed, Abdul Ali Musa (previously Clarence Reams), Fred Waldron Phelps Sr, Shirley Phelps-Roper, Artur Ryno, Amir Siddique, Pavel Skachevsky and Michael Alan Weiner (aka Michael Savage)
list includes:

British Draper Dregs Media

Prodicus nails the British media for their complete uselessness at understanding the importance of Hannan's speech in the European Parliament attacking Gordon Brown.

And also for inviting that tosser Draper to debate with Hannan.

Then, of course, there's the rather unedifying but occasionally amusing spectacle of Guido versus Draper on Andrew Neil's programme. The best bit being Neil telling Draper to shut up. Unfortunately anyone wanting to find out what blogging was all about would have learned absolutely nothing from what they heard. Not that Draper has any idea himself.

My advice to Guido with regard to future televisual outings is: smarten yourself up (not hard when confronted with a pathetic wannabe trendy skip-dweller like Draper), forget the internecine details of your spats with the Dungheap and concentrate on explaining to the public at large what blogging is and why it's important for our political process. All Draper needs to do to show what a pompous, bullying, vacuous little tosser he is is open his mouth.

LabourShitStormList - A Dolly Good Thing

New Labour makes a belated arrival to the blogosphere with LabourList, assembled by Derek ('Dolly') Draper (yet another disgraced Blairite Prodigal Son returning to the fold to prepare for the coming apocalypse).

At the moment it's a spectacle of pure shitstormery, with buckets of bile flying at it - and not just from the usual suspects from the right and libertarian wings of the blogosphere.

The site also received a less than successful airing on Channel 4 (clip courtesy of Guido Fawkes):
