Taken from Radio 4’s I’m Sorry I Haven’t A Clue, Stephen Fry offered this new definition for an existing word. Countryside – the act of murdering Piers Morgan 🙂
Can’t bear the way he seems to have been rehabilitated back into society, as a likeable rogue who used to be a bit of a wide boy. He actually used to be a nasty piece of work who has not asked for and does not deserve forgiveness.
He doesn’t need to try anything at all. Quite possibly the most self-satisfied, smug, vile individual in the meedja. He was sacked as editor of The Scum, I believe, so how he’s managed to get where he is is utterly beyond me. I’m rather glad I’m unlikely to ever find myself in the same place as him, as I would be unable to resist the urge to punch him hard in the face, which would probably hurt my hand. Worth it, though.
I believe clarkson did punch him once. He is a pretty unpleasant person. When he was a tabloid editor he used his journalists to wage personal vendettas against people.
Clarkson siad his young daughter had a harder punch than PM, and he threw a jug of water over him as well on the final flight of concorde i seem to remember.
But really, in my haze I seem to remeber he was disgraced for something, possibly to do with the armed forces?
But **** me, after seeing him on have I got news for you some years ago and then subsequently in the media, he really is a totaly ******* obnoxsious wormy weasel **** ****.
He was involved with Market fixing via the financial column on his paper (columist bigs up some shares, but not before they’ve bought some) – think he got away with that one
He ran faked pictures of iraqi prisoners being abused by britsh soldiers. He didn’t create them but he failed to make sure they were genuine. That’s what ended his career as an editor
I like him n dont see what your problem is.
Are you all just envious of his great success? No one gets as far as he has without talent and anyone who annoys Clarkson is great in my book
Clarkson had a go at him because PM published photos of him kissing someone who was not his wife. In a fight between Morgan and Clarkson I’d like to see both lose.
PM wasn’t so very wrong on the dodgy dossier and the bogus reasons for going into Iraq (and his brother was serving out there at the time). For brief time the Mirror was actually a paper with a conscience.
