But I think we have to consider however that of all the "sayables" from a caught out naughty #conblogger the assertion that "a big boy did it" and further "it was a big boy from another school" do spring to mind. Both Guido and Dale get on high horses re churnalism and MSM outing iffy sources, but they never but never do it. Dale is IMO prone to fibs, and both are prone to half-fibs. Actually Guido is probably slightly more likely to double source stories, but they don't do much of that either. And Guido makes out he can libel all he wants because his server is in Lord Ashcroft's garage in Belize ... or some such.Chris Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15679067503215414300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38067964.post-54850646974634568552009-10-30T00:58:50.678+00:002009-10-30T00:58:50.678+00:00Far be it from me to defend Guido but Dale did in ...Far be it from me to defend Guido but Dale did in fact identify Guido is the person who corrected him. Dale claims IIRC a "senior labour source" framed Watson. If course why he would continue to shield this miscreant after being set up is very curious.Jimmyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01542633492362670045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38067964.post-26280608743355055472009-10-29T22:08:34.628+00:002009-10-29T22:08:34.628+00:00Hi Constantly Furious, welcome - you're quite ...Hi Constantly Furious, welcome - you're quite wrong of course. As we all well know Osborne was calling for anything but what was being done here and in the rest of the world. Cuts, devil take the hindmost, no public stakes in banks, let them go bust, oh and fuck the poor - the natural result of his "ideas".<br /><br />As a service providing economy and given the effects of currency and FTSE runnings on the GDP figures I wasn't too surprised with the modest negative growth. The Chancellor wasn't either. Some other socialists and indeed journos and economists of left, right and none were surprised. But not I.<br /><br />And I think that our economy had quite a lot of what tailors and dress makers call "comfort" - all those city boy bonuses and so on - unlike some of if not most of the OECD comparators. <br /><br />I don't think that in real life this is either the longest or deepest recession since the war. Anyone of my age (51) who has had their eyes and ears open must find these very strange assertions or artefacts of whatever models are being used.<br /><br />Anyways, HQ can change the banner whenever they want. They can push media to it as and when. But for now they're dead right. -0.4% growth vs 12/12 ago, or not. You do realise there *was* growth don't you? compared to the last couple or three quarters? You do realise that? <br /><br />Osborne looks weak and conniving and plain wrong.

The "Osborne-wrong" meme?<br /><br />Obviously HQ forgot to tell you - its not being used after all.<br /><br />Turns out it was <i>Gordon</i> who was wrong about recession and recovery. That's why we're still suffering, even though every other - not "best placed" - nation is now out of recession.<br /><br />And no-one on the team wants to bring <i>that</i> to the public's attention, do they?Constantly Furioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02820008075933084222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38067964.post-64601002029350218922009-10-29T17:19:52.576+00:002009-10-29T17:19:52.576+00:00£1,000 is what Guido is claiming amounts to substa...£1,000 is what Guido is claiming amounts to substantial damages.
