The greening of Mandelson

[helenwyler]

I'd like to teach that woman protester a cookery lesson.

She described the gloop she threw at Lord Haha as "custard". Pah! If you've seen the close up of it splattered on the ground, you'll have noticed disgusting great lumps in it :mad:. Has she no shame?

On a lighter note, who would you like to throw lumpy custard at? I know we .orgers are not 'that type of person', but just suspend your social etiquette for a moment.

For starters, I'd like to throw custard at Sir Fred Hoodwink and his pension book. [evil]

[brokencross]

I would immerse Tony Blair and Cherie in a vat of the lumpiest custard ever.

[Angela]

I'd like to put Fred the Shred's pension book through my own personal shredder. [disgust]

I have heard of a dessert called 'Cabinet Pudding' ;) and I'd dearly love to pour my lumpiest custard over all the present Cabinet, but especially James 'Pretty Boy' Purnell, Minister for Work and Pensions.

That's the man who's just about to 'transform' my life....any minute now....pause for drum roll! ....wait for it.....


.....hmmm...still waiting! :roll:

[Kodiak]

That Green Custard looked more like Slime to me.

Now let me see, Green Slime, Mandelson, mmmmmm seems appropriate some how

[Gene Hunt]

The gunging of Mandelson was brilliant.

I would love to gunge the present Cabinet during a meeting at which they were all present, I would use pure honey though. Then throw in a few wasp nests and close the door .. [evil]

[Melancholy Man]

Personally, I would throw the Plane Stupid crowd in the clink for nine months each. That ought to focus their minds.

Agreed. Do you think they see the irony in the name they have given themselves though ??

EDIT : Can I also add Harriet "Harridan" Harman to the list of those for the green slime ??, she is supposed to be the Equalities Minister and is nothing but a rabid feminist with an hidden agenda against men.

[Melancholy Man]

I doubt it. Just as they are highly unlikely to see that in comparing their middle-class lilly-white hides to Rosa Parks whilst seeking to deny people the right to free travel.

There is a "Have Your Say" thread on this at:

As well as a few series points, there are also a few quite witty replies, such as:


"I understand the green slime feels especially insulted ..."

"Large paper cup... £1
Custard.... £2.50
Green Food Colouring... £1.50

Seeing it all over Mandelson... PRICELESS!"

"Surely, throwing green slime at Mandelson merely increases his camouflage."

"I wouldn’t have thought it would make much difference to him he’s already fairly slimy as he is."

and

"Awww poor Lord Meddlesome! I'd happily clean the custard from him.

With a water cannon."

[davie]

The day is fast approaching when even thinking such things about the ruling poliburo will bring transportation to darkest Africa or even Week. So just wach it all you unhappy campers.

[Rheghead]

I feel disappointed that this has happened. Peter Mandelson is a great 'ambassador' for the UK and has fought tooth and nail in the EU to get the best deal on every occasion, a real patriot and this is how he is rewarded.

[percy toboggan]

This was an assault. Plain, stupid and simple.
If the sailly woman does not want a third runway at Heathrow - and I share her sentiments - she should simply vote Tory at the next election.

She should be prosecuted and punished.

I dislike Mandelson but custard is not the way to go.

[George Brims]

The worst thing is she has probably scarred the career of one or more security people.

[Melancholy Man]

I am deriving a great amount of pleasure from repeatedly watching the collapse of a similarly committed protest at New York University.

Is that corporate water (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Q6KAg6qEGY&eurl=)?

The concencus was they were sick of his use of the word 'concensus'.

So, that's why Freddy (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2D3-FkoXNU&eurl=) didn't answer (7 mins).

Brilliant, need any help?

[Green_not_greed]

I feel disappointed that this has happened. Peter Mandelson is a great 'ambassador' for the UK .

Can I offer a reminder of this clown's (Mandleson's) track record.

First major whoopsie!
In December 1998 it was revealed that Mandelson had bought a home with the assistance of an interest-free loan of £373,000 from Geoffrey Robinson, a Labour MP who was also in the Government but was subject to an inquiry into his business dealings by Mandelson's own department. Although Mandelson alleged he had deliberately not taken part in any decisions relating to Robinson, he knew he should have declared the loan as an interest, and he resigned on 23 December 1998. Mandelson had also not declared the loan to his building society although they decided not to take any action, with the CEO stating "I am satisfied that the information given to us at the time of the mortgage application was accurate."

Mandelson was out of the Cabinet for ten months. In October 1999 he was appointed Secretary of State for Northern Ireland. In his very first speech in the post he made a gaffe by referring to himself as the "Secretary of State for Ireland." Ooops!

Second major whoopsie!
In January 2001, it was revealed that Mandelson had phoned Home Office minister Mike O'Brien on behalf of an Indian businessman who was seeking British citizenship, and whose family firm was to become the main sponsor of the "Faith Zone" in the Millennium Dome. At the time, the businessman and his brothers were under investigation by the Indian government for alleged involvement in a scandal. On 24 January 2001, Mandelson resigned from the Government for a second time.

And now, just like in the Harry Potter books, he's come back from the dead as Lord Voldermort....

Gordon Brown must have been absolutely desperate

[helenwyler]

I would love to gunge the present Cabinet during a meeting at which they were all present, I would use pure honey though. Then throw in a few wasp nests and close the door ..

You got 'balls' GH ;). Sainsbury's do a 'basic' honey for 68p down here....no need for 'pure' honey for that lot :confused.



EDIT : Can I also add Harriet "Harridan" Harman to the list of those for the green slime .

Yup, yup, yup!



I have heard of a dessert called 'Cabinet Pudding'


LOL Angela! Mrs beeton says Cabinet Pudding has the alternative name of Chancellor's Pudding...but 'Cabinet Pudding' is so much more... inclusive. :D

[helenwyler]

Were any of these 'whoopsies' substantiated as offences or do you believe in other forms of justice rather than the British one? Going by your affinity to mud slinging without proper grounds then I think I know my answer. I'm still waiting for my apology btw.


Rheggers - I was pretty sure you were doing a deadpan after your first reply. I am even more convinced after your second. Very good :cool:...or perhaps I've got it all terribly wrong :o.

[Bazeye]

You obviously didnt go to my school.

[weeboyagee]

Thoroughly agree with PT (WHAT you say?). The woman should have been charged. If that was John Prescott and the custard thrower was a bloke she'd have had a black eye! If we all took to throwing something at the elected representatives and those charged with running the country they'd all be wearing boiler suits and safety glasses as normal day clothes!

If he had challenged her the press would have had a field day and she would have been a hero - it's the way this world works these days - sadly.

WBG :cool:

[MadPict]

Laughed my arse off! Woman should get her own cookery show!

[Bazeye]

If we all took to throwing something at the elected representatives :cool:

So Gordon Browns a legitimate target then.

[Gene Hunt]

So Gordon Browns a legitimate target then.

Gordon Brown should not be gunged.

He should be physically dropped in a big pool of the brown sticky stuff he has led the entire country into, then he would know how it feels.

His policies as Chancellor and then as an unelected Prime Minister have contributed massively to the recession we are in. As Chancellor he allowed the de-regulation of the Banks to go ahead, sold most of our gold reserves off at a low price to make a fast buck and has raided pension funds like they were his own personal cookie jar. And along the way he saddled us with how many stealth taxes ??

Then he says that the RBS guy doesnt deserve his pension. He doesnt, but then neither does Gordon Brown deserve his based on performance. I bet he will give it up though if the "court of public opinion" said so.

As If.

[Green_not_greed]

So Gordon Browns a legitimate target then.

Yup

I have a mental picture of him making some kind of speech and a large weight falling from the sky on him, with 16 tonnes written on its side in the style of Monty Python.

He's not quite the calibre of comedian from Monty Python but not far off.

You may think 16Te is overkill but you really want to make sure, don't you?

[davie]

At least two anarchists in Reay by the look of this thread. The thought perlice (aka the Dounreay bobbies) are going to find you one of these days and then its the Fresgoe salt mines for you.

[Melancholy Man]

His policies as Chancellor and then as an unelected Prime Minister have contributed massively to the recession we are in.

Whilst I certainly agree that Brown bears a large amount of culpability for the current mess, the statement that he's unelected is an irrelevant point which must be challenged whenever it appears. No British Prime Minister is directly elected by anyone more than their home constituents. Clearly, when voting for a certain party, the leader will be in the minds of individual voters, but loyalty to the bigger party and wider policies are invariably the deciding factors in the British system.

Furthermore, he was elected as leader by Labour Party and it was always clear that Tony Blair was going to stand down before a General Election.

The assailant has been arrested (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7931185.stm), and I predict she will plead immunity as her fellows and like-minded non-corporate water drinking 'activists' generally do. Obviously, I wouldn't shoot them off the roof next time they invade the Palace of Westminster, or set Police dogs onto them, but the moment I see a protest calling for "amnesty for all parties involved (http://takebacknyu.com/demands/)" I see just how much the silly little children actually care about the cause they're espousing.

Accessing the the premises of Government or visibility of officials is a wonderful thing, and is in genuine threat by the self-promoting and irresponsible actions of a gaggle of middle-class idiots seeking to push their narrow agenda onto the majority.

Incidentally, the assailant is called Leila. Maybe her parents named her after the Doctor Who character or maybe it's a family name, but the Doctor Who character was named after a vicious Palestinian terrorist called Leila Khaled (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leila_Khaled). Gives you an idea of the fantasies and adoration of {someone else's} violence by trendy lefties.

If its Brown

Flush it down.

Well she should be arrested. She has assaulted someone. It just happens that most of the country is sick to death with New Labour and the wreck that is now the UK economy, and probably have a lot of sympathy with her actions. I know I do.

I'm sure there are other completely innocent Leilas out there which she could easily have been named after. And its not that trendy to be a lefty these days - saving the planet has completely replaced that as the must-have trend!

BTW a quick search on Google found Leila Khaled but also Leila Arab, an Iranian musician who has worked with Bjork, Leila Vey, a Canadian singer, Leile Dancer - belly dancer, Leila of Leeds, a professional escort, and Leila - a Glasgow Escort (name or agency I don't know as I never opened the link). The last two are definitely more into love than terrorism!

[Green_not_greed]

Incidently, was Leila Khaled a member of

a) The Popular Front For the Liberation of Palestine
b) The Palestine Peoples Front
c) The Popular People's Front
d) The Palestine Popular People's Front
e) The Front for the People of Palestine
f) The People's Front of Judea?

Answers on a postcard to........

[Melancholy Man]

Nah, the Plane Stupid crowd are middle-class, self-important idiots.


"He was just grinning about it. He didn't seem to take me seriously." (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/7520401.stm)

Stop laughing! Take me seriously! I demand that you take me seriously!

Their childish exercises are nothing to do with the current financial situation, and everything to do with clones-on-an-egotrip being unable to admit that maybe, just maybe, the protests (http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2008/feb/27/planestupid.background) against the Iraq War do not qualify them for involvement in successful action groups. True activism involves lots of boring leg-work, paper filing and standing around in the rain... not immediate gratification of draping a banner over the Palace of Westminster.

I completely agree. In fact, am up to my eyeballs in piles of reports right now!

Yip - he sure would be.
