"I like to put six impossible things into the rulebook before breakfast," said Sir Ian Kennedy to Alice, the confused new intern BEST. Email. Ever. It was sent by Ipsa to a Labour colleague who had made an email enquiry about how to fill out forms to reconcile his travel costs. I [...]

I TOOK the quiz, I answered as honestly as I possibly could. And despite recent protestations at how right wing I am, this is the result: I know! Looks like they’ll have to look again at their questions… [...]

SCREAM as the diabolic Baron Cameronstein conducts his ghastly experiments! GASP as he unwittingly creates not one, but FOUR evil monstrosities! SHRIEK as the minions of hell are unleashed on an unsuspecting public! Get a rope! Cameronstein’s monsters must be destroyed before they destroy us! www.youtube.com/watch?v=KARd8LxkeEw [...]

STATEMENT issued by the office of Boris Johnson, Mayor of London: Comments I made in an interview this morning to BBC London radio have been entirely taken out of context. When I said that I would rather share a cell with Slobodan Milosovic than be in the same room as David [...]

THEM CHEEKY young scamps over at Political Scrapbook have put together this entertaining video based on Dave’s inspiring [ahem!] conference speech. Watch it to the very end where Yours Truly puts in a short appearance and PS hit upon an ace idea for a compilation album. www.youtube.com/watch?v=TBQunIVbIBI [...]

Reporter: So, Chancellor George Osborne, you’ve got some pretty strong views on the last government’s defence budget, haven’t you? George Osborne (for it is he): Yes, because of all the defence budgets I’ve seen, the one left to us by Labour is definitely the worst. It’s complete rubbish, honestly! It nearly [...]

WHILE everyone’s waiting for today’s main political event, here’s some highly entertaining light relief from SyFy channel’s Scare Tactics www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHb4NriHm5c Hat-tip: Craig Tulloch. [...]

POLITICAL spouses, in my experience, can be less supportive and more fickle than you might expect. This is a text exchange between me and Carolyn on Saturday. My message is the one in green, in case you had to ask. [...]

“Listening to Nick Clegg’s speech I am struck by the fact that I could imagine David Cameron giving more or less exactly the same speech, almost word for word.” Leading Tory blogger, Iain Dale I’m sure he was trying to be helpful. [...]

SEE if you can pick out the genuine glaring inaccuracy as featured in Ed Miliband’s latest maildrop offering helpful advice on how to vote in the leadership election: Make sure you number all squares 1 to 5 in order of your preference with Ed Miliband No. 1 Place the ballot paper in [...]

POLITICAL activists reacted with fury today when Sky News broadcast CCTV footage of an innocent political party being unceremoniously dumped in a wheelie bin. “Well, no-one was looking and no-one seemed to care anyway,” said the unnamed brute (David Cameron, 44) who carried out the crime. He was seen initially to [...]

CONGRATULATIONS to Tim Vine for producing the gag that’s been voted the Fringe’s best this year: I’ve just been on a once in a lifetime holiday. I’ll tell you what. Never again. Vine is also the author (I think) of one of my own all-time favourite jokes: I went up to my office [...]

PRODUCING a Downfall video is hard enough without having to avoid swear words (except one minor one). Still, I thought that on the first anniversary of Al-Megrahi’s release from jail by the SNP, I’d give it a shot. And before you complain, I am not trying to smear Scotland’s First Minister [...]

You’ll have some fascinating memories of this place, what? MT: Hmm. We [...]
