liz jones II: quicksands of destiny

LiveJournal (acoleuthic), Monday, 22 March 2010 22:58 (fourteen years ago) link

they're all ex telegraph xp

nakhchivan, Monday, 22 March 2010 22:59 (fourteen years ago) link

then there's bright and bubbly probably-quite-liberal new face of london journalism rosamund urwin, who went to westminster school and probably rode that for all it was worth to get a media career

loooool nah well done her, she's not the worst

sarah sands actually made me cry with laughter recently though. awesome levels of batshit.

LiveJournal (acoleuthic), Monday, 22 March 2010 23:02 (fourteen years ago) link

does anyone pay attention to these dismal hacks anyway

srsly try using her name as yr display name for three weeks and it will be top 5 in her google results

nakhchivan, Monday, 22 March 2010 23:10 (fourteen years ago) link

it's the way dom passantino would have wanted it ;_;

i think i'll just mention sarah sands a lot on this thread. sarah sands is a hilarious chip-on-shoulder tory who can't construct an argument without coming across as laughable! sarah sands attempted to eke out her own edifice of influence upon the london print media and ended up discarded at the bottom of a thousand empty rail carriages! sarah sands!

James Delingpole cuts such a ridiculous figure that if I didn't know better I would assume he was a work of satire. Still, every time I see him I'm comfoted by the fact that even I could beat him up.

Matt DC, Monday, 22 March 2010 23:16 (fourteen years ago) link

He's such a parody that he must have Chris Morris' hand up his bum.

James Mitchell, Monday, 22 March 2010 23:18 (fourteen years ago) link

Sands clings desperately to 'her' surname despite being married to Julian Sands for approximately five seconds. I don't think the shoulder-chip is Tory but it is still living in the '80s.

hahahahahahaha Sarah Sands reduced me to hysterics again last week

basically the old bat had withdrawn cash from an oxford st atm and then walked off without the cash, turned to see a woman fleeing into the crowd and the cash gone

ok at this point lol you got played

but then mad sands decides to play her ZING HAND - as the police hadn't been interested (lol) she has a proposal for whoever owns the CCTV footage (lolololol): give it to her and she'll put it on Youtube to *publicly shame* the opportunist

you heard that right, it'll be on youtube where everyone can point and laugh at the swift work of a passer-by, and take the side of a wronged batshit harridan. oh wait

OMG @ Delingpole on the Alex Jones show. Spoiler: his views on the NHS make Daniel Hannan sound sane:

Unless he's just on a wind-up, of course.

LOL Delingpole wot a legernd

Some of my best friends are gay — but now I can go one better than that: one of them is HIV positive. ‘But that’s brilliant news!’ I told my friend when he spilled the beans the other day. ‘Now I can go round claiming victim cred by association. And if anyone makes an Aids joke I can be, like, seriously offended and put on a solemn voice and say: “Actually, you know, if you had an HIV positive friend like I do...”.’ My friend agreed that being HIV positive was a very handy thing to be, in this respect. But on further consideration, we decided it would have carried more victim cred weight in the days before anti-retroviral drugs when a) it was a death sentence; and b) being gay won you many more oppressed-minority brownie points.

James Mitchell, Tuesday, 27 April 2010 16:46 (thirteen years ago) link

iirc delingpole is against the nhs? good luck obtaining anti-retroviral drugs without it (unless, of course, as delingpole's friend probably is, given delingpole's sub-wauvian nob-worship, and assuming he exists, you're rich).

Delingpole really does have a knack for making the red mist descend. His trolling lunacy aside, he's just a bad fucking writer and his attempts at humour are embarrassing. If he didn't peddle this epater-les-libtards bullshit he wouldn't get any work at all.

The female orgasm is the natural mechanism by which men assert dominion over women: a man who appreciates this can negotiate whatever difficulties arise in his relationships with them.

Last Christmas, my wife threw me out after discovering I'd been cheating on her. On the night we got back together, I made strong, passionate love to her. Unfaithful as I'd been, I was not going to let her have me over a barrel for the rest of our marriage. I needed to keep a sense of self and not allow her to mire me in guilt and a desperate quest of forgiveness.

I deplore the decline in morals that allows a man liike this to be potential Prime Minister. Fifty years ago a scandal like this would have ruined him - and rightly so.

This is one more indication of the way this country has descended into the gutter.

Possibly that one was a parody, much LOLs to be had by commenters noting Odone's Good Divorce Guide makes her just a peach of a commenter on this subject.

Godwin's law in action:

I'm sorry but I don't understand how people think this is not a matter of issue.

For me everything stems from a person's beliefs and their commitment to them - ideas underpin all actions.

To take an extreme position: do we think Hitler's internal thoughts about the Jews were broadly rosy or dark and sinister? The industrial death camps were imagined somewhere and the nihilistic morality which justified it was the product West European professors.

Our country is on a destructive spiral downwards because the fundamental beliefs of the people are steadily declining. People are less wholesome, less moral, less humble and less - for want of a better word- spiritual.

I think there is a blatant link between increasing dissatisfaction with our own lives and our country with ideas and beliefs which are ever increasingly: impure, selfish, proud and material.

So how a person behaves, the choices they make - is a product of their fundamental beliefs and morality.

So for me a guy who denigrates by his actions marriage or thinks its ok to get women pregnant and offer them little more than hope is not a man I would consider moral or trustworthy and by extrapolation worthy of high office!

I’d rather people strived to be good and fail occasionally than not even bother in the first place.

I spend so much time getting agitated about Guardian commenters that I forget how vicious and loopy the Telegraph ones can be. There's a rump constituency of immigrant-hating, climate-change-denying, Miliband-is-a-Marxist wingnuts on there, and a lot of the talking points are coming from the US right. It actually makes me miss the clueless Colonel Bufton-Tuftons of old.

I don't believe many of his views are sincerely held, or that he has thought deeply about AGW or 'working-class comedy' (harking back to this morning’s nonsense on R4).

Uh, working class comedy?

It was a discussion on Today about whether BBC comedy was too middle class. Delingpole had no useful opinions and just took the opportunity to witter on about the license fee and Hampstead liberal elites as per fucking usual.

Lollingpole, , advocating setting the people free by not only headquartering businesses in low-tax countries, forcing employees to drop their union memberships and ordering staff to take unreasonable paycuts, but by providing a shitty service and ignoring competition and advertising laws:

One of the greatest advances for personal freedom in the last twenty years was the rise of the low cost airline. Suddenly, thanks to Ryanair, Easyjet and their many imitators, European travel was transformed from the rare luxury of the few into something almost everyone could enjoy, often two or three times a year.

[...]

One of the key tenets of Conservatism is a desire to set people free: free of the shackles of the state, free to forge their own destiny, free to spend their money on as many exciting new opportunities as a burgeoning market is prepared to offer them.
