Quote of the Day
"I wasn't lying on purpose" Derek Draper, Channel 4 News
In a sense Draper may not have been lying 'on purpose'. These bastards, being amoral, their mendacity comes naturally, probably with little or no forethought. It is fixed; there is perhaps little consciousness of the act of lying.
His perfect epitaph.
ReplyDeleteWas there any point at which he inadvertently told the truth?
ReplyDeleteSo, Derek, what part of the word lie don't you understand?
ReplyDeleteI'm listening to 'this is the end' by The Doors. I hope it really is for this government

ReplyDeleteJaysus! And he's a senior PR/spin doctor? You couldn't make it up.

ReplyDeleteDoesn't excuse it, though.
It probably wasn't "on purpose". Lying is what these PR idiots do automatically; telling the truth is probably a real struggle.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to know what his wife Kate Garraway thinks of the whole affair...
