The Guardian: a Two-Faced (J)anus
The Guardian is a British tabloid newspaper which employs some of the most obnoxious, self-important and the least talented or indeed qualified journalists in the whole world -- like Luke Harding (to name just one) who poses as some kind of anti-corruption, freedom-of-the-press campaigner.
And maybe not without reason -- Luke Harding certainly knows what corruption is, seeing as it is much closer to home than was his last much publicized posting (off which he is still happily wining and dining the cunt). In fact, it is in his own newspaper.
As Private Eye claimed recently (http://private-eye.co.uk/sections.php?section_link=street_of_shame&issue=1300), the Guardian allegedly uses offshore companies on the Cayman Islands and in Luxembourg for tax avoidance.
Tax avoidance? Now that is interesting. While not yet criminal, it is certainly already MORAL corruption at the very least, and gives off more than just a whiff of rot about the whole Guardian enterprise (based in Manchester where the British mafia is particularly strong and has infiltrated many businesses). And I am pretty sure that it is not ordinary hacks, publishing or IT people who are benefiting from the set-up but the top echelon of the Guardianista hierarchy.
However, bad as it already looks, it could conceivably be even worse than that. It has not been investigated yet whether the Guardian parent company also uses those companies for other purposes as well, such as full-blown tax evasion, money laundering or maybe even the funding of terrorism? Probably not... but stranger things have happened. As I say it hasn't been investigated yet. Who knows?
Maybe Luke Harding does, but he sure as hell isn't writing about it.
Too close for comfort, Luke? Don't shit where you eat, Luke? Don't shit where you sit, Luke? Don't get your meat where you eat, Luke? Whatever, Luke.
So much for English idiom (I tried).
