* a frail old lady ^^^
Oh, it's a leak rather than a fabrication is it ?

Is cad another name for whistleblower these days ?
That's not proven, OG, though it may suit Eurosceptic media to assume otherwise. Gove (or whoever it was) claims she said something that Clegg says she didn't.

If asked whether the queen or a Murdoch reporter was lying, I wouldn't personally have much trouble making up my mind.
Gawd bless 'er, etc.
According to the Telegraph in 1947 a cad is someone "who walks with a lady when he has no intention of marrying her". A bounder is "ignorant or indifferent to social norms." So I don't know where that leaves Gove.
The cads are the ones who are running the Sun newspaper, and this is coming from a committed republican.

Nor do I. But if these accusations are found to be well grounded I hope someone horsewhips him on the steps of the Privy Council offices.
Sandy....I would willingly pay good money for a front row seat for that !
Bring your knitting, mikey.
Doesn't that photo of him, in his Clean for the Queen role, make you want to smack him in the gob!
Sorry about that^ comment. Not worthy of the news section, I know, but that man makes my blood boil.
Has everyone already forgotten what Cameron claimed, after the Scottish independence referendum, when he phoned the Queen to tell her that the Noes had won?
"She purred down the line," he said.
Yes, these words were overheard rather than 'proclaimed', but it remains the fact that Cameron's carelessness revealed her feelings about that potential separation. If someone else has done the same re a different separation, I fail to see how he can get on his high horse about it.
If that wasn't a case of the PM himself making public the political opinion of the "frail old lady", I can't imagine what would be!
deserve the sobriquet - Rat boy ?

yeah not only for dragging the old leddy into an argument she didnt want
AND ratting on it but also for looking just like a rat who is coming out of a drainpipie....
Which man is that, Tilly? I am out of touch at the moment. (Though I did see a cute little Morris Minor today, with a TILLY number plate.)
has everyone forgotten their tenses ...

"She purred down the line," he said.

post facto - after the fact that it - for those who have also forgotten their Latin
so she couldnt influence the voting. Here or today, she could.

yeah and the scots drink so much that they wont remember what she said first time round anyway at their next 'go' at independence
It does, Tilly ;o))
He has denied it.

Are you saying he is lying?

Let's deport Murdoch while we are at it.
It's a bit like groundhog day on AB today. We discussed this yesterday...
