russell brand - C or D?

cameron should ask russell brand to sleep with george osborne's daughter to get him off the front pages.

Considering she's 5 years old, that ploy would certainly work a treat

What will your excuse be when senior Labour figures start doing the same thing?

Actually Cameron merely seems to be mimicking Labour MP Paul Farrelly's earlier call. Bandwagon jumpers the lot of them.

LOL I saw that "chris, romford" comment too. It doesn't even make any sense!

Every SINGLE time I see this thread title I think it refers to Russel brand athletic-wear.

So let me get this straight.

Gordon Brown pulls the Western world from the brink of economic collapse.

David Cameron has so little to do with his time that he is able to complain about a couple of disc jockeys on the radio.

As far as the next election is concerned it's what is commonly known as a "fucking no-brainer."

Gordon Brown pulls the Western world from the brink of economic collapse.

When did he do that then? I must have missed it.

lol misspelled into amirite!

glad you stopped using Annoying Display Name

not the same without you

"It also emerged yesterday that Ms Baillie is part of a dance troupe known as Satanic Sluts Extreme, who describe themselves as “four of the sexiest depraved London jezebels”, and who perform “violent, horrific and sexy burlesque shows”.

Where's that thread Dom started about how steampunk and neo-burlesque is worse than hitler again?

That didn't emerge yesterday, I was reading about that at the weekend. Didn't think it particularly relevant to anything in particular, but then again I don't write for the Daily Mail.

She reminds me of Marilyn Manson a bit, it's kind of grim.

No, it's not even remotely relevant (presumably the detail is added to arouse outrage the mail/torygraph's readers) seeing as how the 2 prats phoned the goth woman's grandfather. It's just...."burlesque"....guh.

She also makes for a really unconvincing goff, as you'd expect from anyone who tried for a career as a Page 3 model before she realised Trivium fans are a lot less discerning than white van men.

I think I'll start a burlesque dance troupe called "Satanic Sluts Mild". Who's in?

Satanic Sluts Mild? think they have that on tap in the Intrepid Fox

It's the Goth version of Sweetheart Stout

Gordon Brown speaks out on this matter of national importance

"Christ, what a planet"

what is the context for Cameron and Brown's statements? questions from backbenchers in HOC or "news" journalists?

Clegg's just weighed in now too: "Kill the bastards" apparently.

Then sentence was passed, as followeth, viz. That they should return to the place from whence they came, from thence be drawn to the common place of execution, and there to be hanged by the necks, then cut down alive, their privy-members cut off, and bowels taken out to be burnt before their faces, their heads to be severed from their bodies, and their bodies divided into four parts, to be disposed of as the Daily Mail should think fit.

... bit harsh on Russell, but fair enough for Ross

the gunk tank's too good for 'em

this is win-win for everybody

she seems sweet...

Fantastic.

Would be better as a step-by-step illustration by the guy who does the football cartoon in the Sun

Or a big Brass Eye style animated graphic.

It's the timeline that had to be made.

For fuck's sake, literally everyone involved in this (apart from Sachs, possibly) comes out of this really badly, don't they. Why the hell Brown thought he had to weigh in I'll never know. It's the final, terrible apotheosis of celebrity culture [/rant]

oh i doubt there's anything final about this!

yes it's going to run and run isn't it.

I like it that Brown had to make that statement whilst in France, standing alongside Sarkozy during a press conference about the current finacial crisis.

you never explained what you found funny about the original 'joke'

With Sarkozy thinking that they order these things better in France. It is fucking ridiculous that Brown felt he had to say something presumbly because the story is still snowballing and if he didn't the papers would be all "Why Is Brown Dithering Over Ross Brand BBC Taxpayers Fiasco?".00 Take a stand man! It's not like those papers aren't going to shit all over you anyway.

I saw this dude on teevee. He's unwatchable

Naah: This is what happened....

GB: "So, pretty busy day, done loads, what's DCameron been up to?"
Person: "Well, he's on the news re JR/RB and ASachs (etc)"
GB: "So, if I make a statement, that's him off the front pages?"
Person: "Yep"
GB: "You write it, I'll sing it.."

i'm not offended by the original prank but if this means these two TOTALLY UNFUNNY comedians are down the dumper, career-wise, it'll all have been worth it

this is all over our paper tomorrow. scotland's finest columnist has done 1200 words on it (admittedly 1200 very good words, which do turn into a shoeing of the BBC halfway through). seriously: WTF?

good things about this story: overpaid celebrity dicks (and i do quite like RB, but he has become increasingly lazy and tedious) might suddenly realise they should WRITE SOME PROPER MATERIAL and not just rely on their, umm, "personalities" to fill in their air-time.

bad things about this story: absolutely everything else.

Wow, both the PM and the leader of the opposition weigh in on this, despite us being in a financial hole? What clever times we live in.

Didn't Gordon Brown have to weigh in on Jade Goody as well? Although she at least had the decency to offend an entire subcontinent.

presumably in both cases the MPs were asked about the issue tho? expressing disinterest would surely result in BROWN OUT OF TOUCH WITH PUBLIC etc.

Yeah in this case the witch hunt has gathered such pace that it's best that Brown half-heartedly shout "burn them" while looking the other way, rather than be castigated himself.

Has the Prime Minister of Spain commented on this important diplomatic incident yet?

This truly is the day the 00s ended, isn't it?

No.

haha, OK, there have now been 10,000 complaints to Ofcom. This, remember, is now well over a week after the show was broadcast. Bandwagon, much?
