Sunday Paper Review: 28th November 2010

We start with the positives - to us - and that takes us naturally to the Sunday Express.

The newspaper reports on the recent speech given by UKIP leader Nigel Farage in the den of vipers that is the European Parliament.

Under the headline 'Even Germans Love EU Attack', the newspaper reports how the withering assessment of the EU project by our glorious leader has become another Farage Internet Sensation - viewed over 200,000 times and even been translated into... German.

The Independent on Sunday has some fairytale nonsense about giving more power to global elites and taxing fresh air that we won't go into.

It also has an interesting 'Q&A' style article on the problems facing the eurozone.

Surprisingly for a paper which demonstrates more than the occasional Leftist tendency, their article admits: "Reports have suggested that the European Commission is pushing hard for Portugal to follow Ireland and ask for a bailout. Portugal has denied this, but then so did Greece and Ireland. Belgium's problems, however, have taken the markets by surprise, with Citigroup predicting a bailout – along with Italy and Spain – next year."

The Observer also has - shock, horror - some more apocalyptic guff to support the brainwashing of the people into accepting global government and the taxing of fresh air.

However, it also - and this is a genuine surprise - reports on the protests in Ireland and cites the number of people taking to the streets of Dublin as 100,000... double the number that their far-leftists colleagues at the BBC were reporting.

And amazingly, the newspaper even includes quotes from members of the Irish public angry at the European Empire and the greedy bankers.

The newspaper's subtle yet seemingly sympathetic stance over the latter makes their 'climate' agenda all the more irreconcilable.

How much is the market in ludicrous 'carbon credits' worth again? And who pays? And who profits? Oh....

He may be gone from the office he never had a democratic mandate to fill, but that doesn't mean all opportunities to laugh at the sheer existence of Gordon Brown are over. The Mail on Sunday shows us how he was having blazing rows with Sarkozy over Tony Blair and the Queen of the Quangoes, the unelected ever Cathy Ashton.

Poor Gordon. The story hints at him having attempted to do something decent by Britain... or, at least, he was trying to get cushy EU jobs for his mates. Either way, we're still having to laugh at him for being a plonker with - by all accounts - a temper and an indecisiveness that, together, made him entirely unsuitable to public office.

In the Sunday Telegraph, Andrew Gilligan ponders whether the tensions between North and South Korea are, potentially, the frontline flashpoint of World War III. There's a nice cheery thought.

Still, it makes a nice change from Israel-Palestine.

In my view, the best next World War will be the one where the normal people of every single nation on the globe are all on the same side. And we would unite, together, to rid the planet of the corrupt bankers and shady power holders who have taken everything good about humanity, enslaved it and stuck regulations and price tags all over it, and made us all bloody miserable in the process.

And finally... Ann Widdecombe, sex goddess is still a source of hot deliberation in the Sunday People. Today, she shares with us the pearl of wisdom that: "Rumba is the dance of love, not fornication."

Bugger the Rumba, then...
