Mills as Milo Minderbender




In Heller's Catch 22 , Milo Minderbender is the entrepreneur of the company who swaps the airmen's parachutes for share certificates and then sells them on to whoever will have them, "for the good of the country". Milo goes about setting up M&M enterprises who's defining moment comes when they bomb there own Airfield in order to save planes and time and to get rid of some much hated cotton which he has accumulated.

Mulling over the assonance of Catch 22 for the fate of tortured prisoners at Guantanamo Bay (see below) I was struck by the role of David Mill's the unwiped, bemerded arsehole who is married to the lying fuckwit privy Counsellor, Tessa "Amnesia Freelove" Jowell who is responsible for the money pit on the Thames which will (allegedly) house the 2013 Olympics.

Leaving his home in his glossy but well frosted Beamer yesterday he removed his wing mirror on a reporters open car door.

"Who will pay for that ?" shouted the irate and deeply unpleasant lawyer - evidently used to others picking up the tab for his stupidity.

"Berlusconi?" said a quick witted reporter.

That's him. Mills Milo Minderbender. What a cunt.

Like Milo, Mills is a profoundly misunderstood character

He's still a cunt though

A rich nulabour 'cunt' though.
When he declared these 'earnings' to the inland revenue, where did he say he earned it? Surely as possible proceeds of crime the police should be investigating where it came from as Mr Mills seems to have forgot.

I saw a clip of Mills and his accident (with the car that is) It must be the case that reporters are trained in wit

Back in the news again, curiously little comment has been made (vide Prescott enjoying the comforts of Colorado ranch from the man who owns more land than any other US citizen) about TB's sumptuous holidays at Berlusconi's expense on the Costa Smeralda, the ex-friend of Mr Mills.

I see the estranged wife of Mills was busy laying wreaths with the Mayor of London today, after her Gubment had failed to protect the dead. e.g 17 years after K+ fire and still no radio comms underground etc.,

Luvly flahs cost less than effective comms.
