“I’m standing up, you know”
I’m a nobody. But I still managed to walk into Millbank after my walk this evening to a Hansard speech by our favourite chipmunk, Hazel Blears. (seriously. Try it, all of you. Nobody stopped me AND I had my Guido Fawkes outfit)
I was interested in what she had to say regarding blogging. The cow.
She certainly didn’t like what I had to say (although, I have to admit, she was willing to fight her corner, though the twat next to her wasn’t having any of it)
OH: I’m just a simple blogger. I’m not right wing but I am cynical. 25,000 people a week read my blog which merely contains my opinions. I am not paid to blog and if people don’t like it, they won’t come to my blog. Why do 25,000 a week come to my blog Hazel? By the way, the Police stopped me on my way here.
Chipmunk: Er…The police stopped you?
OH: Why do you want to regulate my “opinions”? I appreciate you can manipulate the media via Yachts and peerages but surely you can’t hope to manipulate millions of ordinary voices writing what they feel?
Chipmunk: Er…
OH: Well, you are of course aware that the EU is trying to introduce licensing for bloggers
Chipmunk: Er..
Hazel, it is going to end in tears.
“Get out of that fucking chair before I call the SAS”
UPDATE: Shit, how rude am I? Massive hat tips to Guido, DK, Swiss Bob and most of all, the people who took time out of their time to show up today. You know who you are (well apart from the Beast) and I am genuinely grateful. A journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step. Thanks for the comments, all of you, including Dollys lot. As Derek has told you, those who own the present, get to write History.
UPDATE 2: This little thing followed us around all day. It was already waiting for us at the pub. Still, if you’ve done nothing wrong eh? (parked on double yellows too, I thought that was a capital offence)
