Is Batshit really mad?

Posted by Devil's Kitchen at 1/27/2007 12:14:00 PM

An email commenter has drawn my attention to the fact that Prince Charles is receive the 10th Anniversary Global Environmental Citizen Award in the US. As you know, your humble Devil thinks that all of this "emissions cause climate change" stuff is just so much horseshit, but some people have criticised the Prince for flying to the US to collect it.

Amongst the Prince's critics is our old friend, Batshit Mad Miliband. No, really.

Meanwhile, Environment Secretary David Miliband has suggested Prince Charles should receive the prize via video-link up rather than make the 7,000 mile round-trip.

What the fuck are you talking about, you hypocritical cunt? You are in India, Batshit; how did you get there? Did you fucking walk it, you twat? No, you and your four buddies flew there in order to give a speech on Sustainable Development. Are you telling me that that speech couldn't have been done by fucking video link, you speccy fuck?

Can it really be that Batshit has such a blinkered outlook that he simply cannot see the hypocrisy in this? Is the man fucking insane?

Yes.

Don't you just hope there's enough rope for all these jerks to do the decent thing when they have driven the world into recession.; 1/27/2007 03:24:00 PM

I read about this last Saturday and thought what a hypocritical and obnoxious little twerp he is.

How does he get to "work" every day I wonder? I presume he walks or cycles.; 1/27/2007 09:24:00 PM
Anonymous said...: Miliband is typical of many in this government. He sees faults in others while overlooking his own glaring inadequacies. I think it’s a characteristic shared by many attracted to the political life. They lack any faculty for introspection.; 1/28/2007 01:58:00 PM

"Devil's Kitchen is the big name on the free-market libertarian strand of the British blogosphere...

"This hugely entertaining, articulate, witty Scottish commentator is also one of the most foul-mouthed bloggers around. Gird up your loins and have a look. Essential reading."—Doctor Crippen
"The Devil's Kitchen is one of the foremost blogs in the UK. The DK is bawdy, foul-mouthed, tasteless, vulgar, offensive and frequently goes beyond all boundaries of taste and decency. So why on earth does Dr Crippen read the DK? Because he reduces me to a state of quivering, helpless laughter."—Doctor Crippen's Grand Rounds
