    What’s the bettering that’s the photographer’ car… still whoever’s it is just hope his insurance company doesn’t see it.

    Oh and are they trying to turn Cameron in the new thatch’ with the Iron Man rubbish.

  2. Paul

    Ironman, ha ha ha ha!

  3. Rob

    Whenever I see a tabloid describe someone as “evil” it increases my sympathy for them exponentially.

  4. Phil

    “Floods…12 days after hosepipe ban”? I fail to see the connection. Floods can be caused by short periods of heavy rainfall whereas droughts are caused by long periods of low rainfall. All this article proves (once again) is that Express journalists are idiots who don’t understand what they’re talking about.

    And if he had, no doubt requiring very expensive medical care in his last days, guess who’d be paying for it?

  6. Phil

    I agree with Dave, Megrahi is a convicted mass murderer and should have been left to die in prison. Does that make me an “ironman” too, or do you have to be a top Tory to get that accolade from the Express?

  7. Rob

    It’s not so much that “that Express journalists are idiots who don’t understand what they’re talking about”, but that Express journalists have utter contempt for their readers and regard them as the kind of idiots who would fall for illogical comparisons.

    I thought PCC regu;ations required newspapers to distinguish fact from opinion? The DE always flouts this

  9. Dai

    Again…. IRONMAN?!

    Maybe “man who does the ironing”…

  10. Dai

    Has he lost his mind?
    Can he see or is he blind?
    Can he walk at all
    Or if he moves will he fall?

  11. JSwindle

    I think they’re confused him with playboy weapons inventor Tony Stark, who proved that he had more sway than the Conservatives with the Scottish Parliament in Marvel’s Secret Wars issue 67.

    Idiots, there should be a space between Iron and Man.

  12. Steve

    Agree with Swindle, a space big enough to accommodate the “C-word”

  13. pstu

    Since when is agreeing with the Americans (whom you are currently visiting) a sign of bravery? If he was a real ironman he would ask Obama to hold an inquiry into the credible allegations that the USA fabricated evidence against Megrahi. Or snog Gwyneth Paltrow, get drunk, and go kick some terrorists’ asses in a big metal rocket suit.

  14. NJH

    Meteorologists stunned as it rains two weeks after it didn’t rain.

  15. JSwindle

    Unless Cameron visited Obama after swimming a 2.4-mile swim, cycling a 112-mile bike ride and a running a 26 mile marathon (with a car following him with his briefcase) he and the word ironman (no space) should be kept at either ends of the playground. They don’t get on well together.

  16. Fruitbat

    Floods? So the three foot drop in a lake in Hampshire I clapped eyes on just today clearly didn’t exist then.

    Or maybe weather is a lot more complicated than that. Not that the Express has the brains for that.

  17. Steve

    ” Or snog Gwyneth Paltrow, get drunk, and go kick some terrorists’ asses in a big metal rocket suit. ”

    I think I’d vote for him if he could pack that into his busy schedule.

  18. hel

    are they allowed to show people’s numberplates like that?

  19. Matt Hurst

    Ironman Cameron feebly agrees with everything Barack Obama says and quips in with something about being a junior partner in the war.

    Yeah if that’s Iron, John Kerry must of been made with solid gold.

  20. Mail Man

    “Ironman”!?

    The last time I heard of a ‘politician’ being described as an ‘Ironman’ it was, supposedly, a nickname for Goering.

    Classy, guys, real classy.

  21. Steve

    I though Goering’s nickname was “FatBastard”, but maybe my Hitler diaries had a different ghost writer.

    My memory is a bit hazy on the ’80s, but wasn’t Lech Walensa also the man of iron?

  22. me

    He was freed to avoid evidence being presented in court to show he was innocent (it was Iran, not Libya did it). A lot of embarrassment avoided for the government by sneaking him out before the hearing. http://www.independent.co.uk/opinion/commentators/christine-grahame-almegrahi-is-home-and-he-is-innocent-1776188.html

    hel asked : “are they allowed to show people’s numberplates like that?”

    Yes, if it’s in a public place (such as an adopted road) there’s no problem. In fact the numberplates are the property of the DVLA, not the owner of the car.

  24. Phil

    “are they allowed to show people’s numberplates like that?”
    I’ve no complaints. I’ve already avoided the London Congestion Charge five times using it!

  25. JM

    seeing as how he was innocent I dont see how he should have died in jail
    the only people who should die in jail are people who work for the Daily Express

  26. George

    Ppppppppppppp!

    Iron Man Cameron!

    More like Plasticine Man!
