BUT THIS REALLY IS THE GIFT THAT KEEPS GIVING
This is how it works folks. |
Round and round and round it goes; where it stops nobody knows |
Lord knows who looks after Liz's money, but I'm sure that Cameron's Business Czar does her own investing. Imagine her going to Coutts! |
Along with the odious Heather Mills, Simon Cowell and Paul Burrell, Sarah of York is named in Panama Papers. |
Jeezo! The Hon.Sarah looks a bit worse for wear!
ReplyDeleteWell, everyone's getting older, Anon. It was the only one I could find of her today.
DeleteWill any be paying back-taxes, going to prison, doing community service?
ReplyDeleteThought not, greedy bast...s.
No one has done anything wrong, except people Mr Putin knows. So I doubt anyone is actually going to prison.
DeleteOh to be a fly on the wall of good old Buckie Palace when her nibs is discussing the morning news with Phillie baby regarding their banking interests! LOL
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised Moaning Minnie needed any advice from Coutts. Seeing as she is Cameron's Business Czar surely it would be HER giving advice to Coutts not the other way round. After all she is such a world renowned financial wizardess after all ... right? LOL
Ye gawd's did you really have to put that last picture up Tris. I mean surely there must be one of her mini nibs AFTER the plasterers have been round. LOL
LOL Yes. You'd have expected the business genius of the western hemisphere to have managed without advice from Coutts. Apparently Coutts is up to its aristocratic neck in it.
DeleteYeah, sorry Arbroath if it put you off your breakfast a bit, but that's the way she looks now. Mind you Andy's no dreamboat either, is he?
A psy-op by the usual subjects just like all the other "leaks".
ReplyDeleteAsk the sheeple what they remember from this - "Putin and Assad are rankbadyins".
Go figure.
A few minor "Western" numpties (The PM of Iceland/Cameron's dead dad) to add a wee bit of authenticity but curiously no prominent Americans.
They're all squeaky clean of course!
The problem, as Craig Murray pointed out, is that the leaks have been made to the Western Press.
DeleteThey are as much to be trusted as the King of Saudi (whose name does, I think, does appear on the list).
Frankly I'm shocked... I used to really like Mick Hucknall. Disappointed to see him embroiled in this.
ReplyDeleteWhat do you mean that last pic isn't Mick Hucknall?
;-)
Awwwww Paaaaaaa!
DeleteWhere have you been?????
Erm, I doubt Mick Hucknall would thank you for that comparison.

Much healthier looking!
There is no hope for Slab while they continue to drag the anchor that is John McTernan. The man is a Tory, plain and simple. I have no idea what he is doing anywhere near the party of Keir Hardie. Mind you that could apply to the majority of their leadership. I suppose you should never interrupt the enemy when they are making the same mistakes time and again, but for someone who was once steeped in the Labour movement, it is a sad state of affairs to see.
ReplyDeleteHi Sinclair.
DeleteI think a lot of Munguin's readers are ex Labour people. Much of Scotland is. That's why there is some sadness at the state of Labour.
But McTernan has never been an asset to Labour here or anywhere else. And the thing is that he's not just a Tory. He's always wrong too.
There will be no referendum.
Jim Murphy will see off the SNP!
Yep, that's the stuff John.
tris
DeleteJust love John McTernan not paying tax is the British way
of freedom so is taking drugs smoking drinking hard liquor(conans one )driving to fast etc etc,
so why not do just as you please or what John means is the
wealthy and powerful not so yer toiling classes.
Its a bit demeaning really having to prostitute yerself
all over London Town and kiss big fat tory esrse for a few
paltry bawbees........meanwhile having to jump about like
a dancing bear and all the Torys laffing laffing in yer face
He seems to like it<Niko, but what he has ever had to do with "Labour" I fail to understand.
DeleteHe makes Blair look left wing!
Last I heard he was working for Murphy, advising him on tactics... That worked well!!!
Well, I dare say, the man is earning more than you and me put together... unlike Bomber Harris who must be feeling the pinch on £25,000 eh?
I'm ex Labour, with the emphasis on the ex. Why vote for pretendy Tories when you can vote for the real thing? There should be no Labour members of the House of Lords for example.
ReplyDeleteEither McTernan is beyond hope or he's the world's finest satirist.
Aye maybe that's it, PS. Maybe all this is a great big fat comedy show that we're all too thick to see...
DeleteOr maybe again he's a right wing nut job?
Definitely the latter!
DeleteLikely!
DeleteThe Unionists must be taking great pride in the fact that these tax havens were set up and continue to be run by the British establishment.
ReplyDeleteOur (UK) contribution to the global redistribution of wealth from the poor to the wealthy.
Better Together,rich people and their tax havens.
Apparently, the City of London is so deep in it that you can barely see the top of the HSBC building. Cameron appears to be up to his chest in it too, with the revelation that there's another company belonging to daddy that was set up in Jersey.
DeleteCraig Murray has some good posts the whole thing.
brigadoon,,,,,,
Deleteyeah ! no tax fiddlers ever or ever will be whom are
Scottish nationalists do leave off
Oh I'm absolutely sure that there are Scots amongst them. Just like the Empire. It might have been thought of as England across the world, but there were Scots and Welsh involved in it, and sometimes Irish missionaries!
DeleteThere were Irish administrators too. The Duke of Wellington being the most famous. Sir Roger Casement was another - before he saw sense. Mind you, he paid a heavy price.
DeleteYep, yu paid a heavy price for seeing scene against the Empire¬!
DeleteSomething that struck me about all this off shore banking business is the sheer hypocrisy exhibited by the Government when it tries to encourage a "Buy British" attitude as an answer to the Steel crisis in the UK.
ReplyDeleteBut then it's apparently ok to bank off shore and not in good old Blighty for some, including those giving advice to Buy British.
I'm not a holier than thou type and if I could avoid paying tax then I'd do so, but to see those close to power doing it and getting away with it while the rest of us struggle to pay the bills at the end of the month (or the beginning, if you're like me and your overdraft is killing you), then it does make the blood boil.
Still, Scotland voted No and I'm sure the Yoons must be bursting with pride that "their" Prime Minister is actually a crook!
Well, I'm sure we've all done things which could, in a way, be tax evasion or avoidance. We pay the window cleaner in cash, or get our cousins to paper the parlour and pay him... or we do a job for a relative and accept a twenty as reward without rushing out to tell Gidiot.
DeleteBut it really isn't quite the same as paying a lawyer in Panama to stash your cash so you don't pay a halfpenny, whilst telling everyone else how immoral it is.
I bet there are a load of them now worried about who is going to be embarrassed next. I bet there are editors being invited for splendid weekends at country houses, and promises of lord hoods will no doubt be abundant...
Slightly off topic, unusually for me, but have just received the first election leaflet on behalf of 'Scottish' Labour and it contains, or does not contain, certain surprises.
ReplyDeleteThe leaflet is on behalf of Rhoda Grant who it seems was a list MSP for the Highland and Islands but I must admit I've never heard of her.
What is surprising is the lack of SNP bad in the leaflet with only one mention of difficulties in the funding of aid to crofters.
M/s Grant promises to address the problem of ferry cancellations but offers no solution unless she,like Britannia, can rule the waves.
Surprisingly, there is no mention at all of the proposed tax imposition which is supposed to be Labour's main vote-catching policy or the change of mind regarding a rebate for the less well-off.
M/s Grant, for some obscure reason, mentions that she was born on Harris but forgets to mention that she has lived on the main-land all her adult life, presumably because of the bad weather that causes ferries to be cancelled.
Maybe the poor woman went over to the mainland to buy herself a pair of socks for the winter when she was just 11 and has never managed to get a ferry back?
DeleteAnyway, I've always found these leaflets very interesting. On one occasion I marked all the spelling and grammar mistakes on one and sent it back to them... yes, Labour. (Imagine me doing that! I'm almost as bad as Spook!)
I've heard the name John, I think, but I wouldn't have known from where.
Still you are lucky. At least you've had a leaflet. Nothing here thus far.
Yikes, as my old chum Grahamski would say - I see Jackie Baillie described as Wealth Creator for the Labour party - honours all round? Knowing Jackie her idea of wealth creating would be leaving the bar when it's her round!
ReplyDeleteWealth creator? For the Labour Party? Hmmmm!
DeleteSo she is going to be creating wealth for the Labour party? Sounds about right as they've never managed yet to create any in Scotland.
