Two days before Xmas. Whoopee no trains so I can’t get to work!!! Think I’ll sit down and read the paper……
p1)Christmas presents stuck in snow
p4) Families hit by worst wages fall in 50 years.
p4)Recession claims 27000 businesses
p6)Drivers rage over the ice rink roads
p7)Tragedy of hunters trying to save dog
p8)Yob crime blights life in Britain once every second
p9 Serial offenders getting away with serial cautions
p9)A month without having your bin emptied
p12)Foreign criminals offered up to £5000 if they agree to go home
p13)£10 billion of rip off overdraft charges won’t be refunded
p14)Comments moaning about the above
p14)grandparents left all alone at Christmas
p17)A&E patient has to wait 32 days
p18)Thug killed his ex while on bail
p18) 650 repairs every day to crumbling army homes
p21)
Oh sod it I’m too depressed to carry on (but there is more).
Suprised Mail readers don’t all just kill themselves and have done with it.
No, I was wrong. It’s just a childish article going on about MPs’ expenses and some rubbish “jokes”.
Top-rated comment:
“This attempt to be quirky is both pitiful and pathetic. Way to go on making Santa discuss porn DVDs and politics. What a stupid way to sully the spirit of Christmas and tarnish the image of something kids love.

Generally I get a bit cross when people comment on an article they haven’t read but I really can’t think of any reason why anyone would willingly read a Jan Moir column.
In the interests of fairness, however, I HAVE read the column (so you don’t have to) and I’m afraid you’re all a bit off the mark about the subject matter. It is, in fact, a cunning blend of dire ‘political satire’ and twee banalities all wrapped up in Moir’s turgid prose. Even by her standards it’s an execrable article and I can only guess that she was under the influence of something noxious when she wrote it.
As I find her virtually unreadable at the best of timesI had to skip a few paragraphs and may, therefore, have missed something of interest or importance. (No I don’t think so either).
I live in hope that Alan Rusbridger will lure her to the Guardian (or back to the Observer) but I don’t suppose that’s going to happen any time soon.

Does Santa have a high pitched voice?
It’s the second day that the snow has been on the Mail’s front page.
Jan Moir: Are you thinking what she is thinking?
I can’t believe they are actually using capital from that Gatley thing to up her profile. Now she’s after Santa. What a bitch.
who cares if presents are stuck in the snow, i’d be a bit more concerned if there are any people stuck in snow!
Who cares about people? What we want to know is how many hard-working families are stuck in the snow?
Santa not as cuddly as we’d think?!
With such humbug from Jan Moir, who needs Scrooge?

What’s the betting that Santa:
- believes global warming is made up
- thinks gays are “wrong”
- reckons women should stay at home, not work
- thinks Britain is “full up”?
Santa probably told Jan Moir to F**k Off
Who says I want to cuddle another man? That’s what “unnatural” people do.
No, I was wrong. It’s just a childish article going on about MPs’ expenses and some rubbish “jokes”.

Well said, Neil!

Merry Christmas to all the Daily Fail Watch boys and ladies and those inbetwix….
It’s a Jan Moir article. I imagined it was a lot like a Jan Moir article, featuring Santa. But Santa or no – it’s still a Jan Moir article.
I saw that front page in the supermarket last night and was like “Santa Claus? What the fu…oh, Jan Moir.”
