More Tales from the Cesspool
Posted by Grand Méchant Loup in Everyday, News, Social Discourse on December 6, 2011
I have long given up on reading a story and saying “words fail me” – because, quite frankly, they don’t any more. You just don’t have to look very far to read a tale of an animal being placed in a microwave by some mass-breeding Mekon-headed chav moron, an illegal immigrant driving the wrong way up the motorway whilst intoxicated in an untaxed and uninsured vehicle, or some oxygen-thieving little bastard throwing rocks onto passing cars from road bridges.

Stirring the pot
Posted by Grand Méchant Loup in Everyday, News, Social Discourse on December 1, 2011
I can’t believe I haven’t posted for over a month: tempus fugit. Nothing at all in November, a month that has seen Europe on the brink of financial collapse, the press being brought to book for all sorts of unseemingly skullduggery, and Libya being transformed into a healthy and flourishing democracy.

Sophistry Corner: EU bunch of jokers
Posted by Grand Méchant Loup in Social Discourse, Sophistry Corner on September 20, 2011
I have a love-hate relationship with the European Union. I am a pan-European. I believe in the idea of a pan-European culture. I have since I was knee-high to a grasshopper been a staunch Germanophile. I have a French girlfriend. I love travelling through Europe and taking in everything that wonderful continent has to offer.

Nothing to add to this…
Posted by Grand Méchant Loup in Everyday, News, Social Discourse on September 12, 2011
Having read this story I was going to write a short piece on our traveller/gypsy/pikey friends again, but thought better of it when I found this short but excellent piece by Telegraph blogger James Delingpole. Read the rest of this entry »
Sophistry Corner: Get me a bucket.
Posted by Grand Méchant Loup in Social Discourse, Sophistry Corner on September 9, 2011
Earlier this week I didn’t feel too well after having a Sainsbury’s chicken and bacon sandwich – I am now convinced that they buy their chicken from one of those “dodgy geezers” featured on those formulaic investigative documentaries – but a quick glance at the Guardian this morning has got me reaching for the proverbial sick bucket once again.

Britain: Banana Republic
Posted by Grand Méchant Loup in Everyday, News, Social Discourse on September 8, 2011
Life expectancy, fifty-five years. Boarded-up streets. Poverty, drugs, unemployment, misery. A local political representative that lives in a double-fronted property down the road and does not have an accessible office so those he purports to represent can speak to him.

Flush, flush again!
Posted by Grand Méchant Loup in News, Social Discourse on August 31, 2011
No, I haven’t got a bout of diarrhoea – but after Sally Bercow yesterday we have another nauseating individual that needs to be sent back home down the U-bend: French socialist Dominique Strauss-Kahn, who has now been described as “mentally ill”. Now, I am no psychiatrist – but if the man popular known as “DSK” is indeed a few centimes short of a franc, then he has had the affliction for a very long time.
*flush*
The cistern hasn’t even refilled yet and I am needing to flush again… How much abuse can a toilet chain take? Next up is another fixture in the left-wing luvvie gallery, Vanessa Redgrave – whose current campaign is to protect the “human rights” of a bunch of Romany/gypsy/traveller/pikey/tinker/whatever-you-choose-to-call-them interlopers. Rather than prattle on and continue to cause annoyance to Basildon Council and everybody else, I’d suggest the precious Ms. Redgrave take the scruffy residents of Dale Farm and put them up in one of her many expansive (and expensive) properties – so she can experience first-hand the cultural enrichment that these people bring. “But the poor souls won’t be able to drag all of their belongings up the narrow staircase that leads to my ivory tower…” Of course daahling.
*flush*
Maximus irritatus

I first saw this story in another online periodical and thought I would add it to my previous comments on the “Romany plague”, but when reading this Telegraph article I found myself sidetracked by the inadvertantly hilarious subheader. Roman gypsies? I have read somewhere that the Romans once invaded Britain, but I never knew that they were still at it. Read the rest of this entry »
