British Right-Wing Pundits

Lesbian parents: Our sons don't need a dad
Anna Lloyd and Jane Harvey could be any middle-class mothers strolling with their sons in their local park. But behind their everyday appearance lies a story of a highly unconventional family - for they are lesbian partners.

well thats kinda what i was trying to get at before, theres a feeling that the british ones dont really believe what they are writing, other than in a kind of "pfft" middle aged white man 'its not even music' type feeling of being pecked at

otm. i think they do what they do as a 'job' -- house style and all that -- not a mission.

melanie phillips is fucking insane thou

yeah i was saying elsewhere: she really does mean it. but that's ex-lefties for ya.

and i imagine boris johnson means it.

also remember the crazy ronhaldino bottle opener thread, the general upshot of which seemed to be "lol britishers don't understand racism", i was wondering if british right wing pundits can possibly get away with more dodgy racial stuff than americans can.

Conservatives appoint ex-tabloid editor

LONDON (Reuters) - Former News of the World editor Andy Coulson, who quit in the wake of a royal phone-tapping scandal, has been appointed the Conservatives' director of communications, the party announced on Thursday.

He stepped down from Rupert Murdoch's tabloid, Britain's biggest selling newspaper, after its royal affairs editor admitted having plotted to intercept phone messages left for royal aides.

The 39-year-old, who previously edited The Sun newspaper's Bizarre gossip column, will take up his new job as director of communications and planning on July 9. He said he was "delighted" to be joining David Cameron's team.

The party leader said: "Andy is a hugely experienced journalist. He will make a formidable contribution as a senior member of my team in building the most effective strategy and operation to win the next general election."

Coulson was regarded as a high-flier in Murdoch's newspaper empire before his resignation in January.

The former Royal Editor, Clive Goodman, was jailed for four months for listening to mobile voice mail messages left for the press secretary of Prince Charles and two officials who worked for Princes William and Harry.

Coulson was cleared of any wrongdoing by the Press Complaints Commission, which said neither he, nor anyone else at the paper, was aware of Goodman's illegal activities.

The War on Britain's Jews?The War on Britain's Jews?
C4 Mon 9 July 2007, 8pm
Richard Littlejohn argues that antisemitism, once the preserve of the extreme right, now has a foothold among other sections of society.

haha -- i saw the trailer, and i was all 'welcome to 2002', and then it said PRESENTED BY RICHARD LITTLEJOHN!!! and i was all "DELETE CHANNEL 4".

Littlejohn:anti-semitism::K-Punk:class war

you couldn't make it up. i was so angry i put my foot through a yamulkah and sent the bill to ken livingstone.

Trust Littlejohn to take a stand against bigotry.

What if the Jew was also a prostitute though, huh? DILEMMA FOR LILJON

i wish i'd seen it, kind of.

Was he sporting any Spurs merch?

"women who worked as Jews, and also prostitutes"

For the first ten minutes all he said was "You've got an ology, you're a scientist!"

i saw it, it didn't seem too bad altho the biggest issue of where criticism of Israel becomes anti-semitism wasn't nailed (un-nailable perhaps).

the footage of the MPAC (or whatever they were called) dude goading the Labour woman after she lost her seat was extraordinary.

Hmmm, that might explain this...

I watched a bit but really his tone is unbearable.

'non-violent Jihad' has made my day already.

Thing was itv had an indepth expose of SKINS PARTIES on at exactly the same time. Apprently teenagers are using "MYSPACES" to advertise house parties leading to "DRUG CRAZED VANDAL GATECRASHERS". The best thing was all teh reconstructions. Kinda like the trailers for Skins as reimagined by 999 Lifesavers.

Apropos of nothing, here's hoping James Delingpole gets clawed by a polar bear.

And also that's he's got Google Alerts set up for his name, and that he reads this, the silly troll.

ooh having been reading the Standard recently, smh @ matthew d'ancona, ffs @ sam leith and LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL @ sarah sands
