OLEAGINOUS KEITH!


I seem to have missed the announcement that Keith Vaz is back in the government. You too? The reason I assume Keith is back in Government  is that the BBC couldn’t get enough from him. During the TI frenzy over the past few weeks Keith was one of the go-to guys and let’s face it, who can speak about integrity with more gravitas and experience than Vaz? Today he was on to wax about the need for Turkey to join the EU and further enrich our lives but – panic not – not before it has secured its borders. (Keith probably has referred them to the template his Labour government used between 1997 and 2010 as a great example of erm…tight borders.) The BBC seem to love Vaz. He is on more often than most Coalition Ministers.

UPDATE’ Keith is now sorting out all Winehouse related issues on the BBC. He is now universal.

    Can I sue the BBC for my bulimic condition – almost certainly brought on by listening to this olgeneous gentleman at 7:55 this morning? 

    The “off” switch suffered my wrath yet again.

      This man is a real peice of work. I like to think the reason they put him on the committee is because he is the master of dodging answering the questions (see Filkin) but its because there is something else much more corrupt at play. If anyone has the time have a google with Keith Vaz and you will be well entertained with the stories of the “Three Muskateers” – the crooked lawyer, Vaz and Ali Desai (worth another google on his own). I do wonder considering Vaz’s friendship with Desai and the fact he was questioning the men who effectively disnissed Desai whether some conflict of interest should have been mentioned but what do I know?. Anyway, lists.. These are charges from the Filkin report against Vaz, cleared because of a lack of evidence. A lack of evidence because he refused to cooperate.
      5) On two allegations of payments from the solicitor, Mr Zaiwalla:
      6) On allegations relating to a Leicester businessman and planning applications for a mosque:
      7) On suggestions that a donation to the local Labour Party was paid directly to Mr Vaz:
      8) On a claim that donations were solicited by local councillors:
      9) On the running of an organisation called the 50 Club which raised money for the Constituency Labour Party:
      10) On an alleged failure by Mr Vaz to register a property he owned in Leicester:
      11) And finally on the alleged use of a company – Mapesbury Communications – to provide undisclosed funds for Mr Vaz’s parliamentary office

      Article with more detail here
      http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programmes/world_at_one/programme_highlights/1225152.stm

      What I like best is Vaz’s claim that the allegations were motivated by race. This was 10 years ago but it was a theme KV went on to develop.

      Surely, Keith must be our hardest grafting MP

    The fact that this corrupt shit is still free to walk the streets is a symptom of the malady that the UK is suffering. Not to mention the others: Mandy, Campbell, Blair, Brown, Jowell, Smith, Hoon, Hain, Balls, Blunkett etc all corrupt traitors. I wish I could say the current lot seem different.

      This is why these dodgy MPs are still where they are.

      But never expect the BBC to do some in depth investigative journalism on people like him.

      I think the last time parliament was this corrupt  was before the Great Reform Act of 1832.

      Mandleson sacked 3 times for sleazy behaviour and he is punished by making him a Lord, same with Prescott and no doubt Vaz already has his ermine in his wardrobe in readiness.

      One can only hope that the public will eventually join the dots between the calibre of the talking head invited on, and on, and on… and the restrictive nature of the media iPhone address lists that means it is only them.

      Even on the Newsnight blog, some pretty entrenched Beeboid glee clubbers were getting heartily sick of the moral outrage from Prescott and Campbell.

      The politico-media estate is in pretty dire shape if this is the go-to guy at all, let alone on repeat selection.

    Opening our borders to Turkey is just what we need. It’s not like we ever any trouble with the Turks that are here already:
    “For the first time, officers armed with Heckler & Koch semi-automatic sub-machine guns would be deployed on routine patrol on London’s streets. They could also have fast motorbikes at their disposal. History may well interpret Duzgun’s killing as the catalyst for the UK’s first step towards an armed police service.”

    All Britsh political ‘elite’ are campaigning for TURKEY’s E.U entry:

    Cameron-Clegg-Miliband-BBC Patten- Guardian -Independent- E.U. bureaucracy – Obama -plus Turkey (of course)

    – all united in the rapid, massive Islamisation of E.U. and Britain through the entry of 80 million Muslim Turks.

    (UKIP has policy of withdrawal of  UK from E.U, and opposes Turkey’s membership of E.U.)

    Actually what I’ve noticed is since the election the BBC now get on some Liebore politician who is one some committe in the HoC. The BBC now use the phrase “Influential Committee” when introducing the Liebore turd to try to pretend that somehow this person is in power or should be listened to.

    I noticed Vaz saying: “When – and I say when, not if – Turkey joins the European Union, we will share borders with Iran, Iraq and Syria…” on this morning’s ‘Today’.

    His interviewer didn’t even pick him up on his assertion that Turkish accession was just a matter of time, let alone the desirability of our belonging to an EU sharing land borders with three such qur’apholes.

    Sharing a border with a Muslim semi-hellhole is proving problematic as it is (which seems to the reason for the current news item), but at least it acts as a kind if buffer state. I doubt if such reasonable arguments have ever been aired on the beeb. Their journalists would probably characterise them as coming from the ‘far right’.

    There’s a blog called ‘Stop Turkey’ run by a guy  who uses the name of some SF anti-hero  as his online moniker – it deserves the support of every Brit who – unlike our poltical establishment – actually has a sane attitude towards the prospect of Turkish EU membership.

    Has this idiot Vaz ever been to Turkey ? He should spend a month travelling round Eastern Turkey. If the Turkish military can’t contain the borders, no-one can.
    Thankfully, for them and us,  the Turks don’t want to join now anyway, so the topic is a dead duck except in the minds of some loony politicians.

    Turkeys membership will further enrich our lives eh?  Aren’t we enriched enough already?  I mean all those extra rapes, murders, stabbings, shootings, benefit claimants, interpreters, hate crime laws and lets not forget, Mosques.  I don’t think we could possibly be more enriched.
