Russian and British Aristocracy Celebrate Mole Clegg
The Lib dems did not manage to get the great results of “Clegg mania” they were expecting, but sitting in the middle of a hung parliment still provides them with more power they have ever had in their rather fruitless history.
As a dejected Nick Clegg sought to pick up the pieces from a bitterly disappointing night for the Lib Dems, in which they looked set to lose five seats, he restated the party with the most seats had the first right to seek form a government.
As he arrived to cheers from supporters on the steps of the Liberal Democrat headquarters in Westminster, Mr Clegg said it was now for the Tories to prove themselves capable.
He said: ‘I have said that whichever party gets the most votes and the most seats has the first right to seek to govern, either on its own or by reaching out to other parties and I stick to that view.
‘I think it is now for the Conservative Party to prove that it is capable of seeking to govern in the national interest.’
Clegg is in a unique position that any double agent could wish to be in and with a grandmother that was a Russian baroness, and her mother was the daughter of an Attorney General in the Russian Imperial Senate, he has become the new oracle to those in power at the Kremlin.
Ther skeletons in the Clegg family closet, show his great-great aunt, Moura Budberg, was almost certainly a double agent, working for both the British and the Soviet Union after the Bolsheviks seized power in 1917. Her lovers supposedly included Herbert George Wells, Maxim Gorky and Robert Bruce Lockhart, the British spy chief who inspired the James Bond stories.
Zakrevsky, his great great-grandfather, lived on a large estate in modern-day Ukraine, not far from Kiev. The crumbling estate is currently occupied by an agricultural college, but still boasts a two-storey classical mansion, annexes, and a large park. It also has a pyramid, the most blatent shrine to his illuminati roots.
Zakrevksy – like Clegg, a passionate internationalist – travelled to Egypt as ambassador in 1898. He came back with building material and ordered the brick pyramid to be built in his garden. He died in Cairo in 1906, was embalmed, taken home and buried under it.
“He was a man of liberal views and European education,” Valentina Gonchar, who runs a museum in the small village of Berezova Rudka, in the Poltava Oblast – or district – where the estate is situated, said.
“His articles on legal topics appeared in many journals at the time. He was also a leading Mason. Tsar Alexander III sacked him from the senate in 1900 after he wrote a letter to the Times in support of Alfred Dreyfus.”
According to Gonchar, the Zakrevskys fled Russia immediately after the 1917 Bolshevik revolution, with Clegg’s Russian-speaking relatives settling in Germany, France, Luxembourg and the US.
This comes at a time when almost a year ago the Russian Prosecutor General’s office did, in its own words, ‘rehabilitated’ six members of the former Russian Royal family, the Romanovs.
So how did our the British crown decide to celebrate this injection of Russian aristocracy back into the mechanics of the modern world. Well, we see the Welsh guards marching through red square for the first time in history, that’s what happens.
China and Google go to war
It has been confirmed over the enormous argument that has taken place between China and US corporate giants Google, that this is to be settled with a head to head battle on the streets of Hong Kong.
After mapping the entire City for the Google Maps application, this information has been fed to the servers at EA. EA became famous for their sports games and most recently have dominated the first person shoot up market with their “Battlefield Bad Company”.
The issue of Google pulling out of China, has upset many business leaders throughout the super power. Google had created an infrastructure that these business’s had come to depend upon. China had an arrangement with Google keeping the flow of information in check, which Google claimed they found unethical.
The argument has not been resolved and in a recent board meeting, executives came to blows, both citing the fact that they were losing billions of dollars over the disagreement.
In stepped EA’s head of business development, Mr Martin Tyler says “….throughout history, such arguments over trade have ended up in warfare. What both side are talking about concerns many billions of dollars and there seems to be no agreement to go forward. What we suggested was that both sides go head to head, through our servers, on a simulated version of Hong Kong. Winner takes all.”
Both sides have welcomed the idea and have agreed a six month’s of monitoring gamers to assemble their armies. After this there will be a two week conscription and training, before the final armies are prepared for battle.
All that is left now, is to sell the viewing rights to TV.
Artist with a story and a message
I saw this news article on sky news today, about a man called Tommy McHugh.
The Northwest England man, a former street fighter and handyman, nearly died after a brain hemorrhage in 2001 — but miraculously woke from a week-long coma with an insatiable urge to create art.
They then went into his home and it showed that every surface of his walls was painted on, some amazing pictures.
They then interviewed the man and his words rang out so true:
“Why not have a go? How about a bit of splash and dash? Everyone has a wall at home, why not paint on it, give it a go. If you don’t like it, you can just paint with white over it again and then give it another go, it’s not a problem. “
I love this attitude and it’s something that people need reminding of.
Since his transformation, he has become a recognised artist:
