The BBC's Director of Comedy wants to "save the sitcom". But the sitcom is only endangered because most of them stopped being funny. As To the Manor Born reminds us, British comedy has lost its class, says Finlay McLaren.

We're a week away from the most painful Budget in history thanks largely to the eye-watering cost of lockdown. Yet Baroness Hallett says next time the Government must be ready to go harder and faster. This is insanity.

It's bad enough that all UK TV users are forced to fund the BBC via a TV licence. But it's worse than that, says Charlotte Gill: millions of pounds of taxpayers' money are handed to the corporation via backdoor channels.

War Honoured at Kilmainham

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Monday July 14, 2003 10:52author by James McKennaauthor email jimmymac61 at hotmail dot com Report this post to the editors

A glorification of war took place yesterday at the Royal hospital Kilmainham. Under the guise of being a commemoration for the dead of the "last world wars and those who died on UN duty", it had little respect for the Irish who died with the UN.

I say this because the religous part of the "ceremony" was opened by Jaakov Pearlman, the chief rabbi of Ireland and defender of the murder of at least two of those Irish soldiers by the Israeli army of occupation.

When the Israeli amy murdered Irish soldiers in Tibnin their only response to the Irish minister of Defence who went doen to express the concerns of the Government and Irish people was to say, "nobody asked you to come here". Actually the UN did ask us there beacuse of illegal Israeli invasion, occupation, and murder.

Rabbi Pearlman, a staunch defender of the more robust approach of Sharon, escorted by four presumably Mossad "security personell" opened the religous section of the Irish governments commemoration of mostly British War ! British military and intelligence services were also in force to commemorate the wonderful Irish men who left their families destitute and distraught to unwisely serve an Empire and it's evil designs . Not to forget our old friend from Shannon airport , Lt Col John M O'Sullivan, the US defence attache. When not attempting to impersonate a member of the Garda in order to interrogate anti-war protestors last February, John M helps to find suitable idiot candidates for the US military and intelligence services here in Ireland. It's called recruitment and he does it with the full assistance of the Irish Defence Forces and Government.

All these and the cream of our our Military Intelligence (don't laugh), who we will never recognise the next time they turn up at an anti-war meeting or outside a mosque ,as they cleverly wore dark glasses! Who would have thought of that? Now you know why they were head hunted for these jobs by their uncles and cousins. What a wonderful country we have to support such a secret nest of old family ties and pro-US/UK/Israeli pratts in the guise of C3, or whatever it's called now. But how does this small bunch of out-of-touch middle class cronies manage to spend over a million euro of our money every year? It's a secret!

Catholic, Presbyterian, Church of Ireland and Methodists all followed Pearlman in praise of "gallant heroes" but no Muslim! Now you see why they are "terrorists". They have no respect for the time honoured art of war or the pompous parades, inspections and ceremonies so willinging accepted by the Irish Defence Forces, straight from the last army to occupy the Royal College Kilmainham. A hundred years ago the same ceremony was being held by that army. So who did we honour yesterday?
