'Portillo's liaisons with younger women' -- sorry, that completely passed me by.

The * followed by default code is how Sven and Ulrika got caught out - apparently.

If we are to believe the tabloids over recent months, Portillo has been linked with three young woman. One was indeed an ex-lingerie model.

Who would have thought...

bj: young *woman* ex-lingerie model?

Bit of a rickitty old story.

You mean there are those that don`t?

I think that the whole of the News International stable gets up to these type of tricks.

Remember the Sun claming they had records of Simon Hughes' calls to "gay" chatlines earlier this year?

So Portillo is batting for both sides... Wonder if he will be selected for the next Ashes tour?

Good lord - this must mean either none of the Labour MPs are having affairs (statistically unlikely) or the Labour Party is training their MPs how to change their phone PIN numbers.

Nice to see the cops actually 'investigating' the Screws. Makes a change from tipping them off, eh? One or two have managed to turn this into a nice little sideline, it's rumoured.

"That was very handy".

When was it "very handy"?
Who was it "Very hand" to?

Can't believe that any one who read anything done by Petronella for the Spectator thought that it was there by merit alone. 'Boss had to be s******g it'

Found out persecuting the royals and Tommy Sheridan almost in the same breath. Stunning events I say.

Wicox, good tip but I just tested it and the Virgin Mobile hack doesn't work in Canada; is it up to date there?

I'm sure there are one or two fellas around who'd be willing to take a crack at a Virgin. Boys?

Will Inspector Knacker of the Yard be allowed to do a proper investigation.
This sounds as if it could go a long way, with mucho collataral.
Shows though that the new technology is fraught with danger for those who don't understand it.

Won't Rupe make sure all the charges are dropped..Mr.Stelzer having a word in a few ears and all that?

A chance to test RIPA...........I do hope they hold these NoW types under the Anti-Terrorism legislation and get access to Rupert's mobiles.............

Is that photo of Mr Portaloo at the top of this column before or after the operation?

Sorry to go off the subject a bit folks but I spotted Mr Prescott leaving 26 Whitehall at 9.30am this morning.

Instead of Two Jags he now has the use of one green Jaguar and a silver Range Rover that I am told was once used by Geoff Hoon.

No sign of any women though (hence the use of a famous middle finger towards me).

Ah sweet Petronella. Don't get a randy old goat started. Brilliant totty.

Anyone else a fan of Julia Hartley-Brewer? I bought the Screws for the first time ever on Sunday for the Sheridan tittle-tattle. If he's innocent, I like rap music.

Geoffrey - 9:30am is Prezzers hometimes these days, he has a full workload of course, it's just the full work load of a freeloading slimeball who works for 30 minutes a day and then fucks off to play croquet.

Naughty Guido!

I've now spent all day dreaming of dear Petsy in her undernothings. A pleasant passtime, but not conducive to productivity.

I'm guessing the Sundays are flapping about having to go back to doing some 'proper' work now the voicemail scam has been exposed.

Talking of dirty bloggers, our friends at the Murdoch currant bun tell us:

"FOUR civil servants have been sacked and a further five disciplined following claims that staff had sex in the toilets, jumped naked from filing cabinets and held breakdance competitions in their office."

Department of Rural Payments apparently. Should have had a transfer to ODPM shouldn't they, where you get out of jail free and get a free transfer to a non-job on your full salary on top of all your media fees for revelations.

Beaten by the dead tree press, Guido?

Older readers may remember that some years ago, when he was still considered papabile, C4 News ran a series of stories on Don Miguel in which he was referred to as 'the Tory Blade', amidst much Zorro-like imagery. In my naivety at the time I assumed this was a tactful reference to Miguelito's youthful interest in Mexican affairs - an enthusiasm which I believe he continued to follow with some help from the World's Favourite Airline.

Probably thought he heard you shout "So what`s your I.Q. then fatboy?",Geoffrey and was merely responding with the correct answer.

Petronella brilliant? I do not think this word means what you think it means.

Two pieces of news:

ONE: Scotland Yard's Anti-Terrorist Branch is leading the investigation, which began last December.

TWO: Current UK Terror Threat Warning Level: SEVERE
This means that an attack is "highly likely" and indicates a continuing high level of threat to the UK.

There, don't you feel a lot safer now?

I flogged a story to the N of the W a couple of years ago. I was quite surprised how candidly ex assistant editor Greg Miskiw discussed 'breaking into' other peoples PC's, and in particular those belonging to persons trying to provide the paper with so-called anonymous information!

Pin number? A tautology from such an educated man as Guido? What next? ATM machine? LPG gas?
Anyway, what's your real name?
Best blog in Great Britain, anyhow. Thanks, JD.

So we can look forward to further posts being signed "Snobb Doggy Dogg" from now on then?

I don't know which is worse. Reading day-old dross on this blog, or cut & paste crap from YouTube on Iain Dale. Are you operating a cartel to wind down for the summer season ? Or just wishing Parliament is recalled?

Describing Petronella as "Brilliant" isn't something many people would get started, either, reactionary snob.

One can only assume times are tough in the Tory Party.

Sorry, didn't realize I was repeating myself. Any pronouncement re; Wyatt's intellectual gifts need only be stated once. If at all.

Raincaister re: 'brilliant' perhaps there is confusion with some parts of the anatomy which if rubbed too frequently and furiously on the carpet do shine very brightly indeed?

I know it's an old one, but it still makes me laugh: 'Petronella Wyatt' is an anagram of 'a pert, lonely twat'

ziz said...

Woodrow Wyatt did little to benefit mankind. Producing Petronella was undoubtedly one of his best efforts.

Apparently she benefits mankind also.

Raincoaster - V good! When I used to read The Speccie - I've gone right off it - I always skipped Petronella's self-regarding, empty pieces. If only she could find a husband of her own! But she never seems to have any luck. All the husbands go back to their wives,leaving her still looking.

Anyone for setting her up with Galloway? What was the saying about Thomas Carlyle and his wife: it was merciful that they married each other and so made only two, rather than four people miserable.
