Guy News
Mr Osborne, Tear Down This Debt
And Watch Out For Huhne On Sunday

Guido has spent the week "Huhnting". Last Sunday's papers revealed that the wily Secretary of State for Energy, Chris Huhne, had forced "someone close to him" to accept penalty points to avoid losing his driving licence. A criminal offence and a resigning issue. After much tracking down of former staffers, Guido clicked. What if it was Vicky, his estranged wife, who coughed the arrangement, that took the bullet? While she isn't necessarily going to incriminate herself this Sunday, it will be interesting to see how far she is willing to twist the knife into her soon-to-be ex-husband's career. The crosshairs even came out.

Super Injunctions have also been the order of the week and Guido certainly gave Adam Boulton a fright on Sky News on Monday, when he gave some very simple media advice to the rich and the famous:

“If you don’t want to be on the front pages then don’t pay hookers to stick dildos up your bum.”

Meanwhile, Neo-Guido, also known as the site's News Editor, fresh from sparring with Polly Toynbee on Newsnight on Tuesday, stuck it to David Laws and his spinners on the BBC News Channel on Thursday night, highlighting the £99,000 "gift" that was the real reason for the harsh punishment the LibDem golden child received:

Guido will be attending tomorrow's Rally Against the Debt and hopes to see as many of you there as possible. New Palace Yard, Westminster at 11 a.m. Saturday morning.

Rally Against the Debt

We don’t have big public sector unions organising coaches to London, and no political party is backing us, so we certainly don’t expect the Rally to number in the hundreds of thousands. Guido is taking his children with him on their very first demo and his first since back in Berlin 1989, to demand on their behalf: “Mr Osborne, tear down this debt.” See you there?
