I'm surprised you came only fifth (bearing in mind how many times I repeatedly voted for you).

You're a car-crash blog.
Take a ringside seat in the slow-mo as the people's party slides off a cliff, the pilled-up Manic One at the wheel, the heads, legs and torsos of the passengers strewn out the back.
That Ginge provides such an improbable and desperate interpretation of the spectacle, only surpassed by the lunatic take offered by Mark Still News, only adds to the high-definition schadenfreude to be enjoyed.
Come fellow ghouls, have a titter before oblivion.

Number 5 in this case means pissed as a fart at the captain's table of the Titanic.

Or, alternatively, pissed as a fart in the bunker of the Fuhrer.

Reply to Anonymous: What does the phrase pissed as a fart mean? How can anyone be as pissed as a fart? Your farts are coming out the wrong way round.

Rover Bosses crooks, but they are getting away with it!
And under a Labour Government no less.
This makes depressing reading. Not just did they pocket millions but the cost the country millions by sacking thousands of skilled workers and chucking them on the dole.
Personally I feel that there was a strong case for the company to be put in public hands. A real Labour Government would have done but unfortunately with cries of 'remember what it was like in the 70s' New Labour left it to the market.
That brings me to the banks..............
