This wonderful letter, ostensibly from the Inland Revenue’s Customer Relations department was, according to the person who sent it to us, absolutely genuine. It was printed in The Guardian, they said, so it must be. It would be lovely to think so but we did a little digging. Could this “Mr. Addison” be Chris Addison, [...]
During the holiday season, unless there is a Zebu stampede, we thought we’d instead provide a little light relief. Although we only encountered this letter recently, dated 2009, it was apparently sent to Mr. Miliband back in 2007. It is, naturally, said to be genuine. However, this seems possible as Nigel Johnson-Hill does exist, being [...]
If you’re going to try to get recalcitrant viewers to pay their licence fee, you can browbeat them and threaten to take them to court, even if they have no TV and have no intention of ever having a TV. That is the heavy-handed method adopted by the BBC.
Or you can go the way of [...]
As Christmas is approaching, we thought we should mark the season. Given the growing number of MPs opposing reform of “the system” that they blamed for getting themselves into so much hot water this year, we thought a charity appeal on behalf of unloved MPs might be just the ticket. If you’ve arrived here from [...]
We’ve blogged already about this government’s previous form on ignoring scientific advice, and there’s plenty more in Complete and Utter Zebu. But we thought we really ought to Zeboo Home Secretary Alan Johnson.

As well as the person who chooses the name we like most, whoever tells THEM about the contest will also [...]
No wonder the BNP has made such headway if our leading politicians can’t muster a better counter-argument than they did on last night’s Question Time. Were they told to call Griffin “Nick” all the time? It just made it all seem uncomfortably chummy, making him one of the gang, which is surely exactly what he [...]
If you were a politician widely ridiculed for some outrageous examples of “misspeaking” or – as it’s called in the real world – lying, wouldn’t you try to stick to the truth in future? Not U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. She’s been at it again. Visiting Northern Ireland last week, she gave a speech [...]
After Steve produced a wonderful “author” video with the Zebu promoting our book, he got a taste for it. Why stop there? We should “Zeboo” some of the politicians who had been caught out conning the public.
Anyway, Hillary Clinton’s the Zebu’s first target. It seems to work quite well and we can’t wait till he [...]
ZEBU FARMER: Somebody who couldn’t tell the truth if their life depended on it.
An example of somebody who doesn’t always tell the utter truth is Hillary Clinton, the U.S. Secretary of State.
During the 2008 Democratic elections, the then Senator for New York boasted that she’d been under sniper fire in Bosnia. She hadn’t.
When running for [...]
