Looking At Them Tittys
1969 - 1998



Toilet Rascal

Welcome to the November UKMT, let's keep on watching the continued slow collapse of the government together, and place our bets on the next MP to be revealed as a gross sex harasser, or which one has a harmless kink which is sadly far more salacious to the British press, but still fun if they're a moralizing family values prick.

There's an alleged partial list floating around, with terrible phone camera quality but enough details to be plausible, but it keeps being taken down, and so far nothing has been confirmed barring a couple of old news items like 'MP is dating a woman' :monocle:

William Wragg is the piss man. He's also consistently voted against equality and human rights legislation, terminally ill peoples' right to die, and right to remain for EU nationals, so even if the list is false he is the piss man.

In The News :sax:
• Theresa May gives a speech to the Conservative Conference and it goes pretty badly.
• Parliament votes against the continued roll-out of Universal Credit. The executive branch completely ignores them and refuses to show up to justify themselves.
• Brexit negotiations reach a "very disturbing state of deadlock" as nobody has any loving clue how to achieve what they said they'd achieve.
• The home office plans to ban the sale of 'acid' to under 18s to stop the 'spate of acid attacks'. Whether this will just apply to sulphuric acid drain cleaner or they'll write something utterly moronic that bans chip shop vinegar, who knows. (It'll be the latter.)
• Transforming Rehabilitation, introduced by the former justice secretary Chris Grayling, is revealed to be a dysfunctional bag of shite approach to probation.
• The Telegraph outright lies on the front page about 'banning white authors from Cambridge', then quietly retracts it in a tiny correction. Will they face consequences for trying to stir up racism? (lol, no)
• Catalonia issues a unilateral declaration of independence. The British government refuses to recognize it, but Scotland issues a statement of support.
• Palestine condemns Theresa May's announcement that we 'feel pride' in the Balfour Declaration as offensive and unacceptable.
• Jared O'Mara, the Labour MP who humiliated loser Clegg, posted a bunch of edgy bad poo poo on the internet 15 years ago as a young man, shocking many. He may have also said bad poo poo to women, and has been suspended.
• Nadine Dorries, the Conservative MP who voted against every piece of equality legislation put her way, says this means that "Labour can no longer pretend to be the party of equal opportunities and diversity". Shortly after, she called people 'window lickers' on Twitter.
• A bunch of National Action members are arrested for plotting to use a gladius machete (lol) to stab Labour MP for Lancashire West, Rosie Cooper.
• A USB stick containing 2.5Gb of unprotected files detailing Heathrow security procedures, radio codes used to indicate hijackings, tunnel and CCTV camera locations, police patrols timetables, and ID card details is found in a West London street.
• Revised figures from the ONS indicate that we're hosed, £490 billion poorer than previously thought, no longer have a net reserve of foreign assets, and growth estimates are a lie.

Limmy sorry over 'Die Now' tweets

Backtrack after MP intervenes

Scottish comedian Limmy has backtracked over a series of aggressive Tweets against Margaret Thatcher and the Royal Family, after they sparked calls for him to be sacked by the BBC.

The comic, real name Brian Limond, said: ‘I have deleted my tweets, and I'd like to apologise for any offence caused. It is never my intention to offend.’

However, the contrite tone was in stark contrast to the messages which landed him in hot water, in which he relished the idea of killing Prince William with a Samurai sword, compared the Tories to the Nazi party and posted an image of Margaret Thatcher with her eyes scratched out, a slash mark across her neck and the words ‘Die Now’ scrawled across her face.

His anti-Royal messages started with a comment on William urging FIFA to relax its ban on the England football team wearing Remembrance Day Poppies during their game on Saturday.

He tweeted: ‘Would Prince William write to FIFA on behalf of the Scotland team wearing poppies? No. Cos he thinks ENGLAND won the war.’

That was followed by: ‘I'd love to slide a samurai sword up Prince William's arse to the hilt, then yank it towards me like a door that won't f*cking open.; Of the Tories, Limmy wrote: ‘England voted in the Tories KNOWING what would happen, just like Germany voted in the Nazis KNOWING what would happen. SAME PEOPLE. To my mind, there is no difference between what's going on in England right now and Nazi Germany’

After that attracted the attention of Tory supporters he said: ‘This is f*cking excellent, I've got a shower of Tory c*nts coming after me, retweeting everything.COME INTAE ME, TORY SCUM, COME INTAE ME!!!!’

And he further provoked them with the message: ‘If I was to find out right now that Thatcher had died, I don't think my heart could take it. Jackpot.

‘How removed from reality must you be to not see Thatcher's death as a celebration.’

When criticised over this, he changed his avatar to Stalin, then a picture of Thatcher with ‘Die Now’ written in red over it.’

Among those offended by the posts was Tory MP Louise Mensch, whose attention was drawn to them as she prepared to grill James Murdoch as part of the Commons inquiry into phone hacking.

She tweeted: ‘How is it possible for a working comedian to put up an avatar of an old woman w/ red line over her throat & DIE NOW written across her face? Violence against an old woman totally beyond "free speech".’

And she asked her followers about what channel had employed him. The 37-year-old had a series with BBC Scotland, Limmy’s Show, which ran for 13 episodes last year – though the corporation was quick to distance itself from his messages. ‘Brian Limond is not a member of staff and clearly his views are not those of the BBC,’ a spokesman said.

After Mensch’s intervention, Limmy reverted his avatar back to the photograph of himself, and issued the apology.

The article does miss out on the minor detail of his completely sincere apology being immediately followed by an ad for his (then) new book.

I wonder if the euphemistic language is an attempt to downplay the severity of the acts or if it's just keeping things purposefully ambiguous in case the spreadsheet became public. Or maybe it's just some concession to propriety, with all the doublethink that implies.

It's probably deliberately vague for all those reasons and maybe more. That it names the victims (though some plainly aren't victims) is another thing though. When it comes to that, they've been very careless indeed

Limmy got into the papers just the other day because of a "sick prank" where he tweeted that Simon Cowell had died when he was ill.

It was funny because he thrives off that poo poo.

And yeah, post Fast Show/Big Train The Limmy Show and Burniston are about the best sketch shows from this accursed island I can think of.

I know liking Monty Python approaches parody but it is amazing how much from that show really stands the test of time seeing as it's getting close to 50 years old. There's iffy moments but their hit rate is still incredible.

I never got into Monty Python despite my dad and multiple friends insisting it's the best thing ever. I thought The Meaning of Life was actually pretty cool (I think, I watched it when I was like 16) but Life of Brian and Holy Grail were overrated and Flying Circus was just shite. Maybe it's me.

I have often wondered this. Like I have seen some porn where they are all loving as you'd expect then suddenly streams of piss everywhere and it just makes me think drat was that guy just absolutely busting for the loo the whole time, because I've tried to have sex while needing the toilet before and it's very distracting and not particularly enjoyable but you keep going because saying 'I need a piss' halfway through ruins the mood and ugh bad times.

I never really liked Flying Circus. The Meaning of Life is fine - but I think it's the weakest of the films. Holy Grail is alright, but Life of Brian is my personal favourite; the more overt satirical elements, and the aftermath of its release.

At a guess, they probably film out of sequence.

Or maybe the studios specify; must have:
1) toned body
2) trimmed/shaved body hair
3) big dicks
4) bigger bladder
5) must bring own Tory MP pisspig
