Derek Draper, a demented man from a demented party!

Thus far, I have not commented on Derek Draper, and frankly the man is not worth spit, so I don´t know why I am now.

I listened to his comments on the Daily politics with Guido, (See the crown blogspot here) and he clearly does not get the Internet at all, in any way shape many or form.

The man is a pratt.

If you listen to the ¨round 1¨ of the interview you will here Guido challenging Derek ¨plonker¨ Draper over his funding and links to the Labour party. Of Labourlists funding,he said it was transparent, and a list of donors was published annually, and no he did not get funds from the Labour party. When pressed he did say he had union money, but insisted that people could look at the published list published annually... except of course that Labourlist has not been around for long enough to publish such a list yet.

So in the same sort of spinning that has it that Derek has a qualification in psychology from Berkeley* he then attacked Guido for his funding. As Guido had no money, where did he get the money to set up his blog, he must be in someones pocket!

Well, this just shows how ignorant Derek is. Guido´s blog, and indeed Iain Dale´s and mine cost nothing to set up. Not a penny other than my time. You see, the problem is that Derek just does not get the Internet at all.

*That assumes he has any qualifications at all in anything. If Derek Draper seeks to do work for you perhaps you should ask to see the qualifications he claims to have, and then go and check with the institution the paper claims issued them. He certainly did not study at Berkeley campus of the University of California. Guido has this.
