drat01 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 What it said was the tory party is in disarray and as a media outlet that supports it we must deflect any attention to that quicklyNice attempt to deflect there (Hint check thread title ) As bicks already pointed out she was sacked before the media even got whiff of the non story ... no deflection whatsoever. Merely identifying the reasoning behind an attack by tory led media on milliband and labour was to protect their own. I wonder if the same media will report the large trend of anti cameron across social media, of course they wont because like a lot of tory supporters they are concerned only with milliband and ignoring what cameron and farage are actually standing for 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I don't think Cameron can be put in the same category as Farage and the babyeater. According to Gove in a radio interview on Friday, Cameron is the stand out politician of our age. Of our our age? Queried the interviewer, just to check. Yes, the stand out best politician of our age bar none, beyond compare. Creepy as ever. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The word is that Cameron is quite lazy more interested in his iPad and then gets caught out by events ... Sometimes he pulls a homer and comes out of it with a result ... Of course sometimes he doesn't Ed has to be the standout of recent times though , but for all the wrong reasons , in the history of politics never was a man more ill equipped to be PM ...

But our elected officials often seem to go out of the way to make things harder for themselves, and with hilarious results. Through the sleights of hand dealt by fate and folly, politicians’ carefully planned policies or announcements can be derailed in minutes, careers can be dashed, and the public discourse can take unforeseen turns. The latest blunder from the man at the top, David Cameron, was his skin-crawling account, and almost certain lie, recorded by Sky, of how the Queen “purred down the line”, after he informed her of the result of the Scottish Independence referendum. ........ more on link Plus http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/david-camerons-bread-gaffe-just-2326331 Gaffe-prone David Cameron is red-faced again after being left completely baffled by the price of a simple value loaf of bread. And the PM only added to his shame when he defended his ignorance by saying he uses a breadmaker. While the Tory leader continues to make benefit cuts to struggling families, he lives in luxury with his home-cooked granary loaves. It is not the first time he has been forced to hang his head in shame, and here are the top 10 slip-ups from our bold PM: ....... more on link http://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/pm-david-cameron-new-royal-gaffe-about-the-queens-van-dyck-9764420.html David Cameron found himself at the centre of another embarrassing royal faux pas today after sharing a joke with MPs at the Queen’s expense. It is claimed the Prime Minister was showing off art at Chequers when he amused guests by telling them how the monarch had to be corrected for mistakenly believing she had the original of a painting that was at the stately home. ....... more on link and many many more Edited November 24, 2014 by drat01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eames Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 (edited) "Politician fails to guess price of bread correctly" stories have to be the worst form of political criticism going. I don't know how much a loaf of bread costs. Does that make me ill equipped to do my job? In fact, I'd far rather my politicians were remembering useful information like the nuclear launch codes, how much debt the country is in etc etc than how much they're going to have to spend on a loaf of hovis. Yes the Queen stuff was a breach of protocol, but every politician nay every person would do the same thing, its just that Cameron got caught. The fact that his twitter account (managed by someone else) tweets a picture of a reindeer when he is talking about Mandela's death is hardly his fault is it? I'm not saying he's not a clearing in the woods (i'm 99%) sure he is...... but equally, there are far more relevant, incisive and damaging criticisms to be made than "he was asleep whilst his sister took a selfie" EDIT - this will read like a dig at you Drat and FWIW it isnt intended to be.
