Vince Cable

Looks like Vince Cable has put his foot in his mouth once too often.

He's declared war on Rupert Murdoch. Can't see him surviving.

Re: Vince Cable

My bet is he will be shifted to one side, staying in the Cabinet.

Re: Vince Cable

Yeah, so he loses his power on media takeovers.

So I was right, as usual.

Re: Vince Cable

What about that Nigel Evans, MP for the Ribble Valley? Maybe Vince could have a gay dancing partner, so retrieving his Con-Lib government credentials and at the same time maintaining his radical Liberal attitude to botty-bashers?

you have just summed all the inherant probs- up in this country, you dont get anywhere in politics by telling the TRUTH, these politcians are supposed to be the example too us all when our parents have done their bit and we leave home and venture out in the big bad world!!! why do we continue to vote??? when we know we are going to be treated like mushrooms (from any governing party) kept in the dark and fed bull- - - t.

Re: Vince Cable

Eh? What's offensive about that? I was simply suggesting a little bit of political manouvering on the dancefloor might make better entertainment than the usual party politics we are burdened with.

Anyway, I'm quite sure Vince & Nige would do a good Tango.

I think you'll find that the term "botty basher", whilst descriptive and probably accurate (allegedly), it is not appropriate to a politically correct debate before the watershed.

Shirt Lifter, yes. Botty basher, no.;)

I've just listened to the tape with Vince Cable talking about the Murdoch case. Who in Gods name is he talking to? He sounds like some dirty old man trying to impress a simpering schoolgirl. It is absolutely pathetic!

Re: Vince Cable

There is a temptation to regard Vince Cable, the Business Secretary, as the court jester of the Coalition, licensed to say outrageous things in the great cause of cheering us all up. Unfortunately, the joke is beginning to wear thin. In his sub-Marxist party conference effusion yesterday, Mr Cable sounded less like a Cabinet minister, more like Citizen Smith addressing the Tooting Popular Liberation Front. The “spivs and gamblers” who run the banks and their “accomplices” in the “murky world of corporate behaviour” are part of a “rigged” capitalism that “takes no prisoners and kills competition”. Who would have thought Mr Cable was once chief economist of the Shell oil company? The Liberal Democrat faithful lapped it up – which was, of course, the intention

When you realise that public opinion is manipulated by the media, you know why it is undesirable for Murdoch to have overall control of a large chunk of it.

This slip of the tongue by Vince Cable makes it more likely that Murdoch will gain control, which makes government manipulation of media easier.
It may well have been a planned 'slip of the tongue'
