What kind of Labour MP had never heard of Damian McBride until Smeargate?

unseen

I understand the local joke is that Mr. Vis has been an in-Vis-ible MP...

You're flogging a dead horse blogs reporting blogs. I'm so bored by this story, Labour spin doctor is rude about Tories, well I never, whatever next. If I wanted to read the same subject over and over again I'd go to Mel's blog.

Can we please move on!

Dear James

"What kind of Labour MP had never heard of Damian McBride until Smeargate?"

A blind deaf one with a guide dog?

And the guide dog doesn't read newspapers either.

Yours sincerely

As Hitler said many times "Goebbels, never heard of him?" And it was true.

David Lindsay

This is not at all difficult to believe.

Rudi Vis will rarely have been to Downing Street, and Damian McBride will realy or never have been to the House of Commons tea room.

He will certainly never have attended a Labour Party meeting in the area where he happened to lay his head for a brief few hours per night.

Support how? It's not like anybody actually voted for the Gorgon, is it?

Liz Brown

No real surprise there tho - at least 50% of Libour MP's (I don't have an exact figure) have no idea what they vote for let alone whom and having just watched stasti Smith's pathetic Statement to the House, I am nor surprised - if there were more than a dozed Liebour MPs' there, then I am a Dutchman

He is in excellent company. According to Ed Balls he too had only just heard of 'Mr McBride' or was it just a teensy weeny bit when they both might have gone to the Gents together during their many years in the Treasury and then in Der Bunker. It certainly wasn't Ed Balls who recruited 'Mr McBride' into the heart of Number 10 as he barely knew him.

The gall of these blind and deaf MP's makes me almost feel sorry for 'Mr McBride' who must be feeling rather let down by all his so-called chums.

Write the book 'Mr McBride'. Shame Gordon has collared the market in Courage titles as

'My Courageous Character Assasination Raid on Mrs Osborne with only Dolly to help me'

has something of a ring to it.

Alex

he is far more interested in getting his holiday home paid for via commons expenses....

surely smearing is a bit like w##king. everyone does it, but when you catch your flatmate doing it, they never hear the end of it!

I do enjoy blog threads that are apparently so boring that some numpty has to spend time posting to register the fact that they are bored.

As they say in Beeboid Land if you don't like it there's always the back button

Lying bastard!

"Labour spin doctor is rude about Tories, well I never, whatever next".

But that; is not what all this is about, is it THX1138,?

This is about an orchestrated plan; a plan made by the man, who was at that point in time was so close to Gordon Brown that he knew when he had a shit when he shaved and when he had his haircut.

A man who would not fart; f*ck or frolic, without Gordon's knowledge and Gordon's approval.

All of the others involved in this plan have previous form in the practice of deceit with malice and to some degree have in the past been punished.

This is not let's be rude to the 'Tory Boys', this was a plan to smear husbands wives and mothers with utter filth so as to try and improve the image of their 'Master' and by doing so earn his patronage and gratitude.

It is my belief that we will see and hear much more of this kind of thing before the next election; Gordon has been at it for years and it will come out.

You talkin' to me? You talkin' to me? You talkin' to me? Then who the hell else are you talking... you talking to me? Well I'm the only one here.

As they say in Beeboid Land Someday a real rain will come and wash all the numptys off the blogs.

If you're a Labour MP and you're not aware of McBride you're either very ignorant or very lucky. I heard that most Lib Dems still have no idea who Nick Clegg is.

AndyLeeds

To answer the question, obviously a stupid one.

seb

And when McBride is expelled from Labour, he of course will accept being made a scapegoat and keep shtum about the many damaging things he knows about the thugs who pushed him out the door then changed the locks. And I'm the Pope.

McBride has spent years on the inside, pissing out. The party will find some sop for the man. The alternative, obviously, is Mister Angry on the outside, pissing in.

Random

I love every photo of McBride. He is my age, yet looks a good 15 years older!

Glyn H

Rudi Vis?
Golders Green.

I live over 200 miles from London and I am certainly familiar with Golders Green and where it is and I watch politics reasonably closely. There must be another 300 Labour MP's who have made no impression bar voting for Speaker Martin and keeping Campbell, Whelan, McCartney, Harman and other toerags in work; not one of them worth a constables wages in the wider economy.

Chris

McBride has a portrait of Cliff Richard in his attic, I belive, Random.

Damon

When you look at Rudi Vis' attendance record its a pretty credible claim.

Malcolm Walton

I have seen it somewhere that Rudi Vis claimed for 15,000 miles travelling allowance, to Westminster From Golders Green or North Finchley 7 miles, from his new home in Suffolk 91 miles, little wonder he doesn't know McBride he must get lost travelling.

Malcolm

Rudi Vis
Finchley & Golders Green.

Attendance credible maybe but local issues he is a waste of space. All he asks questions about are prisons and young offenders institutes, we do not have any in this area (we should have) I Cannot remember him doing anything of interest for the community.

How can he warrant 15.000 miles travelling allowance?

Come back Maggie ....All is forgiven.
