"Billy, when I say that ethics is our number one priority and safety is also our number one priority, you should take that to mean exactly what I said. Also quality. That's our number one priority as well. Don't look at me that way, you're in the corporate world now and this is how it works."

I caught that late last night. Tirade is pretty much spot on really.

On a somewhat lighter note, just imagine this circus when Blair shuffles off.

QuoteThe Metropolitan Police has asked groups planning to demonstrate during or in advance of Margaret Thatcher's funeral to make themselves known to officers so that their "right to protest can be upheld".

The call, which echoes similar ones made in the run-up to the Olympics, is an attempt to avoid any outbreak of violence or public order issues which might threaten to mar the funeral procession. However, the suggestion will anger those who say the right to protest should not need prior authorisation by police.

HO HO HO

I wonder if the police will slip up and shoot someone before Wednesday. It's overdue.

QuoteOne of this week's more surreal sights has been the reappearance in England of Mark Thatcher, who will be chief mourner at the forthcoming official funeral of his mother.

The now 59-year-old – who was convicted in South Africa in 2005 over his involvement in a failed coup in Equatorial Guinea – has achieved a certain fresh respectability in the eyes of the world, by now being entitled to call himself "Sir" Mark.

The title is a consequence of the bestowal on his father Denis, in Mrs Thatcher's own resignation honours as prime minister, of an unusual hereditary baronetcy. When his father died in 2003, the title passed to Mark: it was thus the last of several favours his mother did for him, thanks to her position.

He is now reported to spend much of his time in the fashionable Spanish resort of Marbella and was relaxing in Barbados when news came of his mother's death. Sir Mark, titular head of the Thatcher family, was speaking earlier this week of the "very sad moment" of his mother's death, in what must have been his first formal interview before the UK's TV cameras since his rather embittered exile from the UK almost 30 years before.

His departure in 1984 followed the first of what were to be many scrapes. A career as a would-be rally driver ended when he got lost in the Sahara desert, and had to be rescued at considerable expense. Then, following a political scandal, it was decided by the then prime minister's PR advisers that Mark would do well to leave the country.

For those unfamiliar with this particular piece of shit, have a google. Then watch everyone line up to treat him like a fucking prince for a day. I've sneezed things with more integrity.

Oh, and UKspags, this explains why the Daily mail is even more batshit than normal:
QuoteOn the credit side, however, Mark appeared to find new happiness in 2008, when he married Sarah Clemence, a wealthy widow and sister-in-law of the Daily Mail's proprietor, Lord Rothermere, in a discreet ceremony in Gibraltar.

Can't blame the muted response, I doubt I'd want a media hate shitstorm on my doorstep at 75.

Finally getting some traction:

QuoteNotes on the file show that several pages were removed and material from other entries deleted for 40 years by officials using exemptions under the Freedom of Information Act on 11 October this year – a week after ITV broadcast a documentary revealing allegations of sexual assault against Savile. Sources told The Independent that the redactions were not relevant to Operation Yewtree, the ongoing Scotland Yard investigation into Savile's crimes which has since uncovered 450 potential victims. It is understood the redacted material, which includes a note of a telephone message and letter from Savile to Mrs Thatcher, has not been passed to police.

The file casts light on the way the broadcaster curried favour in political circles and was granted invitations to Chequers. The file shows that Savile was also written to personally by Mrs Thatcher a year earlier to assure him that his desire for a change in the covenant system for charities was being given her personal attention. A change along the lines suggested by Savile was eventually included in the Budget.

There are six notes throughout the dossier stating that material has been "deleted and closed" for a further 40 years under exemptions granted by the FOI act. It is understood that the exemptions used by officials in the Cabinet Office cover an obligation to withhold personal information and information given in confidence.

NSFWCorp:

QuoteMargaret Thatcher was always a woman of myth. During her time as prime minister, feminists joked that she was a man — no woman could be as evil as she, for goodness's sake. Thatcher was a cipher. Otherwise stony-faced, politically correct lefties and student union equality officers were given carte blanche to let their misogyny run wild, while right-wing nut-jobs pretended she never backtracked despite the fact that she had to say "whoops, sorry vicar!" on monetarism and the poll tax, all the while increasing spending and strengthening those parts of the state she approved of.

Alas, in death her myth will grow, just as it grew once she was out of power and the left proved it couldn't even defeat her successor, John Major, the least charismatic former acrobat ever to have run away from the circus.

There is, however, one thing on which all of us – left and right – can agree. One legacy for which Margaret Thatcher should, and must, be judged. Her greatest crime, and the one for we should never forgive her.

Margaret Thatcher inspired the music of Billy Bragg.
