Actually your chart shows the FTSE index as having increased from a rebased 46 to approx 67. According to my beadframe that works out as being approx 46%, not the 154% to which you refer. Didn't you work in the City at one time (perhaps you still do) - very worrying!

Does Francis own shares in any Christmas hamper companies?
What a fucking knob, the only people who got fucked there were his investors. And we all know what "Italian American" means dont we ? I wouldnt use Francis Maude as a prophylactic to screw a pox ridden dead horse let alone chair a company or political party. Wanker!

As an exercise in raising and dashing hopes your headline is a winner.
Maude's ability to fuck up not surprisingly extends beyond politics. He talks of modernising the Conservative Party. What he means by that is keeping it all South East, public school, Oxbridge and pro-EU...in fact stopping it from changing, bar the odd dash of colour and femininity.
Has it not occurred to Cameron that the Party needs a few regional accents to appeal across class and regional boundaries?
Why have a pornographer as Party Chairman sporting two women's names? A real woman could do the job better than this dinosaur.

give the guy a break. It's traditional for British businesses buying American ones to get totally shafted. Bit like buying into American foreign policy really.
Could a colour blind old git like me please request more contrasting colours on the graph next time.
most of undocumented immigrants are hiding and living in misery,
Undocumented is code for "Criminals who broke the law entering the country illegally". They can be documented on the flight back. As flight food isn't that bad it shouldn't be miserable.

Why is it that the major parties are full of such incompetent gits? I think it must be the intense media spotlight on their private lives. Is it a coincidence that the only Tory with a bit of spark is serial adulterer Boris Johnson? I am beginning to think that Churchill must have buggered boys in his spare time - or at least a secretary or two like FDR and Dwight D. Eisenhower. Frankly it is clear: being a good politician (and I'll make an exception for FDR because his modern equivalent - the LibDems - are so awful) requires a regular healthy dose of hard alcohol applied internally and a bit of crumpet on the side. It ought to be a pre-requisite for preselection.

anon 6;37 spot on I cant see any of this shower enjoying some good old fashioned perversion such as a caning that makes the blood flow or indulging in a drug fuelled orgy. They strike me as the types who have affairs with fat ugly middle aged women or men, not even a nice young chicken. As to Francis Maude he looks to me to be the sort who would be into forced transvestism or enforced infantilism, he probably wears stockings and suspenders under his suit. No, the good old days of politicians who were pissed by noon and got sucked off under their desks before enjoying a three hour lunch then racing home in the Jag or Rolls have long gone and aren't we all the worse off for it?

It is fatuous to include Maude in a list that includes Maxwell and Robinson. Maude is plain stupid, the other two plain crooked. There is a big difference between stupid and crooked - its called mens rea.
One might almost question how it is that Labour is so bloody desperate to bring US gambling operators in to run their proposed 'super' casinos, while at the same time acquiescing so easily over the right of the the US government to trample on British sport-betting operators. If we want true crooked politicians look no further than John Prescott, Stephen Byers and Tessa Jawohl. Those three make Francis Maude look like a MP being caught fare dodging on the tube in comparison with their wholesale scale of fraud and deception.

Nothing wrong with investing in porn. Porn is like oil, hairdressing and food in that there will always be a market for it, except the punters don't actually 'shop around' for porn. They just pay up thereby preserving the industry's profit margins. Seems like a good investment. Some research needed...
Most investment turn turtle at some time...don't tell me that all you bloggers have never lost money on funds or shares....porn is irrelevant, its just an investable commodity...but sadly it also appeals the the smutty humour of the red tops..(and the Daily Telegraph)...sex can never be discussed sensibly in the UK...as a poor but informed cop has been finding out this weekend...as he tries to inject some though into teenage sex....

I fear this story allows Maude to cover up his somewhat legion failings elsewhere.
When will he or Jenkin give their seats to Rehman Chisti.the working class boy is the future of Conservatism in this country and the only thing that stands between the membership and a party dominated by an upper class set of toffs who won't let go of the reins.

Casual,
That anyone can make a loss in the lucrative, specialist literature publication business is beyond me.
As you point out it has a constant market and the "Italian Problem" is easily resolved by engaging a great many security operatives, frequent changes of company name and location, and, in the last resort, having an expendable idiot as chairman of the board.
Remittance Educational Publishing (Neth Antilles) bv sees itself as providing a valuable public service. Not only are numerous undesirable characters kept off the streets for a large amount of time, but many little old ladies on the south coast of England rely on our dividend cheques to keep their pet cats fed.
Our annual report is also much sought after by various cognoscenti on the world's stock exchanges.

Hitchens you are offensive and irritating but deeply, deeply funny.
Sadly, I am not Chisti he is nothing short of the heroic,charismatic sect leader that the party desperately needs.
And as you so rightly point out,he could single handedly deal with supply shortages in world oil markets.
as for your threat to punch me,I quiver.Not only would I see your frothing mouth coming a mile away,I would also see the belly move before the shoulders,duck,and then plant a good right firmly below the belt,only hoping that your balls are big enough for my spade size fists to find.(I've heard they are small)

Julian,
You must be a decent, clean living chap otherwise you would be more au fait with the various sub-sectors of the special interest publishing world. To certain afficionados prepared to pay top dollar, the "Italian Look" is considered most desirable.
The "Italian Problem", on the other hand, involves gentlemen with Sicilian accents and a propensity towards the violent resolution of business disputes.
Personally I fancy neither, but the former represents a lucrative business opportunity while the latter leads only to sore kneecaps. Or worse.
Ah, shows how out of dat I am there then. Must be having a Russian girlfried that makes me know what the "Russian Problem" (be wary of FSB officers who bring their own sugar with them to tea)yet have almost forgotten what the Italian Problem is.
