The Mail doesn't seem to approve of Cameron (yay for the Mail?). And it's spilling over into non-stories attacking him.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/artic ... itain.html

An article slagging off Cameron coupled with a concern for sweatshop workers? It's almost refreshing, but it can't get rid of that always slightly "off" tone that all Mail articles seem to have.

I think Davey's shirt is really quite nice - though they're right about his trainers - bogging. Nice to see somebody ripping the pish has got through, mind -

Whenever I go to the beach, I wear my Sunday suit, rolling up my trouser legs if I venture into the water. Sometimes I take off my jacket if it is really warm and show off my braces. If the sun is shining, I always wear my knotted white handkerchief. I usually discard my tie and remove my shirt collar, ensuring that I keep the collar studs safe. Once I met Mr Wilson. He drew his watch out from his resplendent silk waistcoat to check if it was time for another pinch of snuff.......

He's on the beach?

When Britain ruled the world, we were also the best-dressed nation on the planet. Even factory workers in Britain had waistcoats and trousers cut by tailors.


What about the slaves working in the carribean?
Wonder what they were wearing.

Quote:
Surely a man like David Cameron should wear a pair of well-polished shoes made in Northampton rather than those idiotic smelly trainers?


Northampton has one shoe factory, their shoes are shite. Who wears well polished shoes rather than trainers to the cinema anyway?

A bizarre attack on Cameron from the conservative right? It must be AN Wilson

I am a staunch Conservative who is entitled to an opinion, to express that opinion under what is left of the freedom of speech in this country and entitled to believe i am right and for that matter under those freedoms defend my principles, in addition under those freedoms anyone can agree, disagree or abstain from my point of view, hence this forum - its called a democracy, Something we are rapidly loosing when expressing ones point and believing it is right receives a label of being Nu Labour

I wholeheartedly agree with G. I can use the Mail's comment system to disagree with what he's saying. Shame the Mail might not necessarily let the world know that though!

Cameron is not right-wing enough for the Mail but they will approve of him because the alternative is publicly showing support for BNP/UKIP (sales suicide) or supporting Labour which will ruin the impression they give their sycophants that we live in an extreme Far-Left, Socialist dictatorship with an unelected PM who is really against Britain. But they don't approve of him that much so they will get in some subtle digs when they can.

As for the article itself, he can wear whatever the hell he wants when he's away from office.

There has got to be a person in this country that has got some common sense. Brown is not up to it Cameron is even less able to talk common sense, where is our Moses to lead us to the promised land that all politicians have promised us since time began.

Bit difficult seeing as you didn't leave a name. And even if you did nobody would give a toss.

Andy Kadir-Buxton's website

Excellent website. The worrying thing is, I'm not sure whether it's a piss take or serious. He takes credit for inventing bottle banks, persuading Gorbachev to democratise eastern Europe and coming up with some sort of super energy machine that was suppressed by the German government.

I'm thinking he is serious - but he is also clearly some kind of nut. As well as all those things, he also claims to be able to bring recently deceased people back to life simply by, erm, stomping on their chests ("The Kadir-Buxton Jump-Start"). :shock:

He's been discussed a couple of times over at Bad Science (link and link). There are a few there who say they've come across him and believe he's actually serious, and I think I lean that way too, although his site is a great example of Poe's Law (http://rationalwiki.com/wiki/Poe's_Law). There are seriously delusional people out there, and he seems to be one of them. Here he is talking about blockages in fallopian tubes:

Quote:
All blockages that I have found have been dead bacteria, or sometimes lemonade which is a result of a country wide practice of lesbians at Universities.


His 'Post Sex' page really has to be read though, it's a work of...something:

Quote:
In the 1980s I fended off an unprovoked attack. What I did was hit my attacker in the Jugular vein in the neck hard with the tip of my finger. (The Femoral artery in the leg can be used in the same way as an alternative.)

Whilst my attacker was incapacitated on the floor by this martial arts technique I gave the person a bruising slap round the buttocks. When the attacker came to it was said that the experience was even better than sex. I knew at once I was on to another invention. Whilst paralysed by this martial art technique the sensation of pain is replaced by super enhanced pleasure. As Governments around the world have been looking for a safe alternative to sex this appears to be it.


It's bits like this that make people think it's some kind of weird joke:

Quote:
Post Sex will have many spin offs including brightening the day of HIV sufferers.


:shock:

i've come across him before, and all his medical techniques follow a similar pattern. i perticually like his universal cure for all forms of mental illness "the kadir-buxton method" or "punching them in the ear".
