Wossy and Russel Brand upset the nation, sort of. Did they?

I’m torn.  Being a father (and not a grandfather but I understand how precious my daughter is so I can sympathise) I think it’s pretty hurtful to ring up someone out of the blue, on radio, and say you’ve shagged his grand daughter - and then witter on about it for half an hour.  BUT you sort of have to admire the sheer outrageousness of this radio clip - here’s what all the fuss is about:

Palin Love Doll - Someone had to do it!

It’s probably worth getting this sooner than later as we don’t expect they’ll be around for long:

All members of The Bullingdon

It’s not the fact that it confirms our suspicions that there are still places in this country where the privileged are groomed for leadership.  If anything that’s probably me being jealous for not being invited to join the club.  I would *love* to have been born to a family of wealth, power and influence because it would mean that I don’t have to toil around in the foothills of life. I could get on with the job of planning coups in Equatorial Guinea or running my great godfathers merchant bank: Bloke Bloke & Bloke. You know, fun stuff. Rather than worrying about the next door neighbours cat crapping on my roses or why the jobsworth at the tip reckons I am disposing of commercial waste or the annoying leak in the conservatory or the fact that my entire disposable income is now taken up by my gas bill.

No, I think the thing that has got this snap talked about up and down the land is the look on their faces.  It’s as if the photographer has swapped the words ‘OK Chaps, say cheese’ to ‘OK Chaps, now sneer’.  Perhaps we were never meant to see this picture but nearly everyone I know would like to see these fuckers lined up against a wall and shot. Not exactly a good thing for British law and order, shooting a load of toffs for looking arrogant, but it would sure make us all feel a bit better.

Top Squashed Head bloke

Hillary Hutchinson V 30-stone bull.  The bull won.

But the reason why Hillary takes todays top bloke position is his understated approach to the thing.  In these absurd days when it’s possible to trip over a paving slab, get a million from the council and never go back to work again, Hillary expects to get back to his cows early next year.  Top Bloke!
