The Lessons from Wythenshawe and Sale East

When we study the results of our most recent By-Election one thing becomes very clear.  The real winner was 'None-of-the Above' because 72% of the electorate stayed at home.  This is actually a shocking indictment on our politicians because the verdict on them is that they are not worthy of our time.

It also means that yet another Labour politician has joined the long list of people living off the public purse even though only about 15% of the electorate voted for him.  I have written about this before because how low does the turnout have to fall before the result is declared null and void.

The answer to that is, 'it won't happen' because most of our current politicians have no shame.  In particular low turnouts are advantageous to the main parties who can still rely on postal votes and activists to get some of the people to the polling stations.  The 'doubters', the people who could change all of this, still believe that, by not voting, they are registering a protest.

It is not working and it will never work.  To protest one has to vote against the system which is strangling and destroying the identity of this country.  It is the only peaceful weapon that the public has left.  We must sweep them from power which means electing sufficient 'independent' politicians to get us out of the EU and bring back power to the people.

If we cannot convince sufficient people by 2015 to vote AGAINST a corruption which is becoming endemic in politics then we will get what we deserve.  The apathetic and ignorant masses most of whom have been educated by the mainstream news media to accept a facade of so-called respectability cannot be bothered to seek the truth. 

They are by and large content to sit at home and believe the tissue of lies spewing from their television sets and from the pages of their newspapers.  It is only when tragedy strikes that the real aims of our political class will emerge.  Everyone accepts that the recent rains have been exceptional but the flooding has been assisted by government malevolence.  The folly of ceasing to dredge the rivers and clear the drains has come home to roost.  It was always more important to send cheques to African despots!

Iceland ....Leaders of a World Free of Multinational Corporations?


Back in May last year I posted about the situation in Iceland where in 2008 their banking system had been looted and their financial sector had collapsed with debts beyond belief.  The people and their elected politicians not least their Prime Minister, Sigmundor David Gunnlaugsson, responded by disbanding some banks and jailing the bankers.

Since then they have opted out of the European Union, they have formed only three relatively small domestic banks to keep the economy going and have gone from strength to strength.  They also adopted sensible and pragmatic economic measures to ensure that their economy recovered and prospered.  They now appear to be a very wealthy little nation.

Now here is the crux!  Their politicians served their people.  Their politicians showed a sense of national pride and their politicians were not on the take from the international corporations who have brought such misery to the people.  Their Prime Minister is a Prime Minister and not a furtive corporate leader.

They do not squander millions every day on the EU.  They don't ignore public opinion and continue to donate our money to China, India, Pakistan and Africa amidst outrage. They put Icelanders first and their country first.  Iceland is therefore an example to us all and it is going even further.

Iceland is as aware as most of us are that we are being snooped upon by 'big' government like never before.  They have therefore introduced 'Unseen.is' a rival to 'Skype' and 'E-Mail' based in Iceland.  Potentially this is a huge stride forward in an effort to release the shackles of the huge tax avoiding multinationals.

In my opinion this is genuine leadership.  It is the first instance of genuine, independent, national leadership since the EU was hoist upon us all through the back door.  The Icelanders seem to be determined to make their mark.  I wish them so much luck because I fear that they may need it.  If you have mercenary tendencies you might like to fight for an independent Iceland!

Was Mandela all he appeared to Be?


Today at the funeral of Nelson Mandela we saw a round up of all the worlds' thieves and crooks.  In short all the servants of the world's bankers could not resist the opportunity to parade behind the bullet proof screen and pay homage to a man who the mainstream media deify as a saint but who the independent bloggers see in a different light!

People forget the history behind Mandela and his former wife Winnie.  They are tainted by murder and torture this is only one example from informed blogs who refute the legacy of Nelson Mandela.  Here is yet another! I don't know the truth because I am just a researcher.

When I look at the guest list of the people who attended the funeral it made me shudder and when you look at the people that Mandela cozied up to even in later years you begin to think that dark forces are winning the war against the forces of light hands down.

How can Mugabe still attend an event like this? How can the vicious African dictators appear in public when 'Save the Children' appeal on behalf of children who's Presidents have been given billions in  foreign aid from Britain and spent it on fashionable properties in Paris?

Then how can our own PM and President Obama appear taking 'selfies' with the leader of Denmark (a particularly attractive Danish girl that did not please Mrs Obama).  Do they not realise how unpresidential this appears to the public.  Even my imagination went a little awry!

The bankers allowed their servants this event to enhance their profiles.  To some of us it flushed them out.  None of the people behind the bullet proof screen represent the public.  Curiously Tony Blair sat alone at the back.  Well if you sh** the bosses wife you have a limited shelf life Tony!

Enough! But where was Gordon Brown, Nick Clegg, Cathy Ashton, and so many other servants of the New World Order?  Sorry guys only the most villainous were allowed to attend this particular funeral.  Vladimir Putin I understand was not there!  Is that significant?

UPDATE:  Apparently Gordon Brown and Nick Clegg were there!  I should have known.

They Are Trying to Destroy the Country ...but Failing!

We the public must recognize that we have a parliament of charlatans who have been bought and paid for and who are hell bent on destroying the public services.  We vote for them as individuals and suddenly discover that they are all part of a huge EU package.

Take my own MP... Nicky Morgan who I have often criticized because she is typical of this generation of our MPs.  She supports the EU, she supports Common Purpose and she stood as a Conservative!  Her opponent Andy Reed lost his seat on a false premise.  She is an out and out socialist! She was hoist on us as an opposition candidate to Gordon Brown! Well frankly Andy Reed never stood a chance because even the British public realised that there was something seriously suspect about Gordon Brown. 

So what has happened since? This Coalition Government is destroying us socially.  People are still dying in hospitals, the schools are still failing so many of our children, the elderly are being abused too often.  Far too many local councils are cutting back on vital services while we squander money on Foreign Aid. 

Nicky Morgan does all the right things.  My wife is amazed at how many letters that I receive from the House of Commons! Let me make it clear that Mrs 'Meldrew' is a slave to the mainstream media. If you tell her that the Royals and Margaret Thatcher were 'friends' of Jimmy Saville then she goes ballistic!

She would never contemplate that the Royals were possibly involved in the death of Princess Diana because it would not happen.  She does not find it strange that the evidence from the 'Dunblane Massacre' was buried for 100 years!  The parents of Madeleine McCann are innocent victims. Doctor David Kelly committed suicide?  There is significant comment on the World Wide Web to 'hint' that many of our senior politicians are 'bad' people.  In these modern times we have far too many 'mysteries' that cannot be explained away by officialdom.

If I talk to my wife about Justin Fashanu, Gary Speed and Stephen Milligan then I am being ridiculous!  She is probably right but I cannot help myself.

Never mind.... the economy is improving and I suspect that is much to the chagrin of the EU. How can our economy be improving when every effort has been made to destroy it? How can the economy of the UK be improving when all the other countries in the EU (except Germany) are dying on their EU feet?

I sometimes amuse myself by imagining an Illuminati boardroom meeting when Cameron, Clegg, Osborne and Miliband are being carpetted... 'We told you fools to ruin the economy of the UK and it is growing.  How is this happening?"

"We don't know because we are doing our best and the public hate us."

"Then you are just as stupid as the people think you are! We need a person with attitude who lies with a smile on his face.  We need a servant who has proven that he hates the British.  We will replace all of you with Ken McLusty because he KNOWS how to damage the economy and get away with it!"

India Enters the Space Age!

Well isn't this nice to know.  India have launched a satellite into space and so many people appear to be overjoyed! Isn't it nice to know that our foreign aid has been so well spent? At least they are not buying up the more fashionable areas of Paris!  They are at least more novel in squandering our tax payer's money.

In the meantime back here in the real world Nottinghamshire County Council will be laying off 800 workers and inevitably services will be cut. The elderly are having their remaining care homes available cut to the bone.  The services which some of us have paid for all of our working lives are being destroyed to make way for the Indian Space programme and the greed of African despots.

I remember when that arch socialist David Cameron first came to power that one of his first promises was that Foreign Aid would be 'ring fenced'. At the time I did not realize the significance of that promise.  It is criminal, almost traitrous, that tax payer's money should fund a the space program of a foreign power.  I cannot prove that this is a fact but why are we giving money that is desperately needed at home to a country that can afford a space program

People... you are in the hands of politicians who are spitting in your face.  Sit back and accept it if you want!  They are incorrigible, they are laughing at you and most of you will still vote for Con/Lab/Lib at any subsequent election even though most of them appear to qualify for a sentence normally associated with Norman Stanley Fletcher (Ronnie Barker).  Foreign Aid just squanders our money and should be stopped now!

Addressing Sleaze and Corruption!

Godfrey Bloom wants to address real 'Issues'!
It is becoming increasingly difficult to write about the political scene in the UK because almost everywhere one looks there appears to be some form of abnormal behaviour.  All three of the mainstream political parties appear to be in disarray.  Nobody appears to be in control of the country and as such the British people are being continually ripped off!

Fuel and utility prices are apparently not being monitored by government sources.  Rail prices continue to escalate out of control. In many areas commuter services are woefully inadequate.

The UK Border Service is still not monitoring immigration adequately.  We are an island society and yet it would appear that anyone can arrive here legally or illegally and remain despite some examples of atrocious behaviour. Who is following up and evicting illegals?

It took the 'bongo-bongo' outburst from Godfrey Bloom of UKIP to highlight the treasonable waste of public funds haemorrhaging to unworthy African dictators who cream off huge amounts for personal gain.  Why is this still being allowed? Why are we funding Indian and Nigerian space programmes? Why are we funding  the purchase of Pakistani jet fighters when we cannot afford to man our own aircraft carriers?

These are all questions which should be addressed in Westmonster but all we get is a constant repeat of party political trivia.  Accordingly the Labour party is devoid of meaningful policies, the Conservative party is losing membership and the LibDems under Clegg have become irrevelant.

I have yet to even mention the scandalous amounts handed out to the EU every month and this is why the British public should become concerned.  Our political class are handing out shed loads of public money and then declaring that we are trillions in debt and we, the public, must face austerity.  It is despicable behaviour but somehow, come election time, the British public do not hold them to account!

Every aspect of the services delivered by government is failing.
No matter where we look, Immigration, Education, Health and Welfare, Transport, Justice and Foreign Policy we face chaos and yet they all go berzerk when Godfrey Bloom uses the term 'Bongo-Bongo land'. It is high time that this country went back to straight talking and increasingly used the term 'treason' to describe what is happening to our money!

Food Banks!


Today in Westmonster they reflected that in modern British life we need food banks to keep some people alive. There was not a hint of shame from the front bench multimillionaires  when they had to acknowledge that, under their joint policy of support of the European Union, we now have people begging for food in this very wealthy country.  

This is the most shameful aspect of our mainstream politics. Our politicians all support the EU and they all support the 58 million pounds per day that we gift to the unaudited EU and they all support the unregulated Foreign Aid but now we are dependent on food banks in the UK for our own citizens!  How can our mainstream politicians stand for election in 2015 when our children cannot play safely in the streets and people need food banks to survive?

We must get back to basics. Our politicians must start to ask simple questions. Why do these people need food banks when immigrants are living in relative luxury? Why can our children not play safely in the streets? Why can they 'bung' the EU so much money and not guarantee the safety of our kids. 

Who do our politicians actually represent? What is their reason to support unelected commissars from the EU? Who is Herman van Rompuy who controls this country?  Why is nobody in Westmonster challenging the European Union?  Let us be in no illusion that the reason that they do not challenge the EU is that they are all receiving shed loads of wonga from that very source.

58 million pounds a day buys a lot of loyalty! It goes deeper and deeper and it penetrates our very society.  It has probably corrupted our local councils, ALL the quangos and most of our public services. The EU rewards its servants liberally because it can afford it. Common Purpose was launched in 1992 and has recruited cunningly from certain cities where poverty and immigration was paramount.

If you were the child of an immigrant and you were suddenly granted an opportunity to be successful beyond the wildest dreams of your family would you not grasp that opportunity?  Suddenly you are earning a huge sum of money and you also have a network of influential friends. You are also appreciated by your family and friends and you can, in addition, create  opportunities for your family circle.

Simple innit? 

UKIP is the only vote that will stop this evil. When the money from the EU suddenly stops then the corruption stops. When the money, our money, does not drain into the pockets of our politicians then they have no reason to support the EU.

Nigel Farage knows that he is onto something!

Cameron Under Pressure!

David Cameron is quite rightly coming under fire from multi-sources within his own party.  I am just surprised that it has taken so long because he is clearly losing much of the grass roots support. In my opinion he is also losing the plot.

Not only has he failed to implement much of the Tory manifesto prior to the last election he is now flying in the face of public opinion so let me tell him what the public want and if he doesn't deliver prior to 2015 it will be useless allowing him to lead his party into that General Election.

Most of us want that all important in/out referendum on the EU.  We want an end to immigrants and criminals hiding behind Human Rights legislation.  It has gone on too long and has hugely damaged the country.  We want proper qualified police back on the streets supporting the public not the state.

We want the army out of Afghanistan now and not when it is convenient for him and Barack Obama. We do not want to spend money on arms to Jihadist rebels in Syria and we do not want anything other than emergency aid to leave this country.

We want the bankers regulated properly. We want an end to thousands of Town Hall fat cats receiving salaries far greater than his own. What happened to the 'bonfire of the quangos'? He must regulate government spending without the public suffering any further and there has to be an end to utility companies fleecing the public on behalf of shareholders.

Most people with a brain would agree that Gordon Brown was the worst PM in the history of the country but nothing has changed.  In fact the loss of the AAA credit rating probably makes it worse.  Food prices continue to rise faster than inflation rates.

Transport is becoming a major problem.  Fuel rockets at every opportunity and train prices are prohibitive for most working class people and yet we have High Speed Rail hoist upon us at huge cost to the Treasury and the countryside.  It is madness.  Airport taxes have increased in fact we are now taxed on everything over and over again to pay for our membership of the European Union.

We need to see some effort being made to ensure that the public are being treated in a fair manner.  We are overtaxed and under pressure and yet we are rich in resource and enterprise.  Where are the politicians who genuinely want to raise standards and not just smash the working class into the ground?  I don't see very many but UKIP have done one good thing at Eastleigh they have scared the Tories who are in turn turning their attention on their leader.

No Longer 'AAA'!

The slump of our country under the auspices of pitifully poor politicians and the European Union continues unabated. I well remember the emphasis that our abject Chancellor placed on our prestigious 'AAA' credit rating but inevitably our economy is in such tatters that we cannot be trusted anymore.

No matter, the madness will continue. The madness of pouring billions into the EU every year and the billions being poured into the continent of Africa where, despite this, evidence of undernourished children is still emerging.

In the NHS alone millions have been spent keeping people quiet about the astonishing neglect in many of the wards. There must be a huge slush fund somewhere in the treasury that can be used to hide government embarrassment. 

I will repeat ad nauseum that while our corrupt and self serving mainstream politicians pay homage to a foreign power (the EU) which refuses to be audited then our financial problems will continue. You see it is deliberate.  The EU is an immense fraud being perpetrated on the people of Europe to bring down our financial power and our freedom.

Listen to Aaron Russo on Youtube (there is a lot of material on him). Mr Russo passed away a couple of years ago but before he did he opened the eyes of many people. If you listen to him then everything suddenly begins to make sense. Who created the EU? Who selected the people who have never been elected but who run it? What happens to the money we pay in? Much of it comes directly back into the back pockets of the quangos and the local politicians who ensure it remains in place. It is a racket of immense proportions.

Mr Russo will open your eyes. Just remember almost all of our front line politicians are involved and that is why our money is disappearing at an alarming rate!

What is this Crazy Coalition Doing with our Money?

Today I read a report that, despite all the so called austerity measures, our ridiculous government is borrowing more and more to give to the EU and other foreign powers all over the world. They are once again cutting our military to the bone and yet will not contemplate cutting back on foreign aid.

They came to power complaining that the Labour government had left the country is the worst financial mess in history.  So what do they do? They continue to ruin the economy to such an extent that the country will is threatened with the loss of its AAA credit rating.

This has already happened to most of the countries under the umbrella of the EU and still our mainstream politicians refuse to accept the inevitable. We cannot keep borrowing money so that we can give it away. The EU is a corrupt, wasteful, organisation robbing all its members blind so all I can conclude is that The Coalition is deliberately following on from Labour and will bankrupt us all in the end!
 
Do not be fooled! The figures are astronomical and unless they change direction austerity is not enough. They need a complete change of direction

HOME economics!

I see that they are all back. The euphoria of the Olympics will soon evaporate once the 'Political Class' begin to appear on our screens once again. Surprise, surprise today we had some young, photogenic females lecturing us all on why the economy is nosediving into the dirt! As if we didn't know...the problem is that they don't know because they have accepted the basic principle that we can borrow unlimited amounts just to keep them in power.

None of our political parties have grasped the basics that borrowing money cannot  raise the country out of the mire. If the taxes that the government collect, which are gargantuan, cannot meet the bills then the bills must be reduced. We can no longer afford the ambitions of our politicians.

It is no good parading Chloe Smith (apparently a Treasury Minister) on the TV screens claiming that we have no other options than to continue on the path to disaster. We do have options it is just that they cannot bear to  use them. To start with we cannot afford our contributions to the European Union. We are hemorrhaging almost £50 million a day on this undemocratic disaster which gives us, the British public, very little. It does prop up all the quangos which enforce European Law but we could do without it.

Then we have Foreign Aid which I have often posted is a national scandal. We are somehow committed to foreign aid for so many countries. I believe that it is a bribe to retain a foothold on world power.  It should be slashed at a stroke so that only emergency aid is considered.

I believe that these two expenditures would probably put us well into the black. If we refused to cooperate with the EU and denied the African and Asian communities of their kick backs the British people would have a wonderful life! We could afford anything. We could afford excellent schools and more importantly care for the elderly. Nothing would be unaffordable so ...and here is the big question...why are our politicians so keen to deny the public by misusing our tax revenue?

The answer is that the politicians who inhabit Westmonster are by and large paid to deny the British people of a decent standard of living. They are all in the same club. That is why we never hear common sense politics. That is why they will not give us a referendum on the EU. That is why David Cameron 'ringfenced' international aid as a priority!

If you believe that the British economy is on a downward spiral then you should not be surprised. The British people are working harder than any other country to afford their life style. We could, at a stroke, repair our economy but the politicians have their little game to play out. They all appear on TV with gravitas but none of them will even consider basic home economics! It is a very unfunny joke! 

Yesterday evening they were arguing on Newsnight that we cannot pay our bills and that the state is too large! Bloody hell of course the State is too large! The Welfare Bill is enormous but that welfare bill has been created by a government of all the parties...that encouraged young, uneducated, girls to have babies just to improve their social status and young, fit, men to receive money and then stay at home and not apply for jobs. None of the political parties have ever managed to turn the clock back even though the public disagree with them. If we ever want to change any of this then we will have to change our politicians.

If we don't change our politicians our lives will always continue along the same lines. It is up to us and if we don't then we only have ourselves to blame.  It would be nice to have a government with a sense of decency and a basic knowledge of home economics.

Taxation and our Chancellor

Today the Daily Express took up the cudgels on behalf of the nations' pensioners. It revealed that pensioners in modern Britain are unfairly taxed in comparison with so many others. I find the whole tax issue vexing having earlier this year been pursued vigorously by the tax authorities on a false premise.


What I cannot understand is why are all the rich people are allowed to employ tax experts so that they can find loopholes which allows them to escape paying their fair share? Why are these loopholes not being closed. If there is a weakness in the system why is it not being  investigated?


We even hear that the BBC (bless 'em) employ a system which enables their high earners to avoid paying the full amount due! This must cease but when do we ever get the Chancellor announcing that he is closing down all tax loopholes? When will the Chancellor start addressing issues which matter to the public? Who gives a monkeys about a Pasty Tax when billions are being lost every year through negligence, incompetence and greed.


We never hear that our contributions to the EU are being slashed. We never hear that International Aid is being slashed and we can afford neither until the economy begins to perform. If these largely useless politicians cannot get the economy going then they should be slashing their own pet projects not punishing the public.


I will repeat however that we voted them in. People like Osborne, Balls, Miliband must really wonder how they continue to gain votes after such miserable achievements. One lot ruined the economy and the other lot cannot rescue it. Still why worry when the pensioners have no redress other than to pay more tax to support bankers who are avoiding it. All in it together Mr Cameron? Not from where most of us stand...get a grip of that bloody Chancellor!

Is there a New Game in Town?

During the time that I have been writing this blog I have heard from many interesting people and have ventured down many avenues of discovery. Time after time however, I arrive at the same conclusion that the modern world is under a huge malign influence. It has led me to the conclusion that I cannot trust any of the leading modern figureheads. Most of them have created a huge governmental apparatus protected by the police and as such have changed almost every western democracy into police states largely akin to East Germany.

At present almost every western European country and the United States are mired in unprecedented debt. This debt is threatening to destroy entire countries but how has it been created? Who is lending these countries unspeakable sums which in some cases will never be paid back.

On every occasion the trail leads back to the Rothschild banking empire. It is very difficult to pin down the scale of the problem but I read recently that only three countries in the world, North Korea, Iran and Cuba are not dependent on a Rothschild Central Bank. Up until 9/11 there were more which included Libya, Afghanistan, Syria, Sudan and Iraq. Can you see where this is leading?


On 23 August 2011 I speculated on why Colonel Gadaffi had become a target for The Powers That Be. I have no insider knowledge and I have no friends in politics but it seemed pretty obvious why the leader of Libya was following Saddam Hussein. Neither of them would join the club.

In 2008 Iceland faced a huge financial crisis caused by corrupt banking practice and poor government. At the time they were on the verge of applying for membership of the EU. The Icelanders have reacted superbly and done what all countries should do. They replaced their government with 'real people', arrested the bankers and organised a repayment scheme to debtors. You can read about it here.

On the surface it appears that they have rejected the Rothschild approach to finance and elected an impartial government committed to their people. They are surviving without the EU which according to most of our mainstream politicians is not possible! 


Perhaps some of our western politicians should realise that historically borrowing from the Rothschild empire is not a good idea. Perhaps we should invent a new game in town and try to rub along without their 'assistance'. First however we must find people who are prepared not to be corrupted.

George Osborne


George Osborne appeared on the 'Andrew Marr' show this morning and in a few chosen words summed up why this modern Conservative party has lost so much support. He has no connection with the conservative support  and proved it by declaring that even out of coalition they would continue with 'socially progressive' policies.


This is the language of an arch moderniser. It is the same language used by Nick Clegg (LibDem) and Ed Miliband (Labour). The problem is that George Osborne is labelled a 'Conservative', he stood for election as a 'Conservative and he did not mention 'socially progressive' policies in his election manifesto. He did not mention that he wanted socialist policies when they were spouting off about a 'British Bill of Rights' and a 'bonfire of quangos'.


When asked about the thorn in the flesh of the 'arrogant posh boys', Nadine Dorries, he confessed that she had always been against 'the modernisation' of the Conservative party and pretty much anything done by the Tory leadership (note the sneeky way he slipped in the final word). Well of course she is George because she is a conservative! Why join a political party when you don't agree with their policies? If it isn't broken then don't change it! This abject Chancellor does not appear to know what he believes in. He just wants to change 'things' because someone has told him to.


He preaches 'austerity' but ducked the accusation that he is still borrowing more than the Brown government borrowed. They must continue to borrow billions if they want to pursue their 'socialist' International Aid programme or continue to prop up the ailing and undemocratic EU. If we ceased throwing money on failing societies we could afford to support the people who are taxed to the hilt to pay for it all.


The electorate have all but given up on the politicians. In one miserable performance George Osborne proved that Nadine Dorries  understands that under his direction we are a lost nation. We desperately need a revolution from within and then the real Tory MP's will see their support return. If they do not rid themselves of the Cameron/Osborne leadership cabal most of them will not be polishing the backbenches after 2015 they will be polishing park benches.


If you don't believe me then read some other right wing journalists here and here. The message is generally the same. If the Chancellor genuinely believed that his policies were honest then he would not have to 'spin' anything. People know when they are being conned and they know who is speaking the truth. Nadine Dorries now needs some backing from many of her colleagues.

How could this happen?

Everyday I learn more and everyday I fear for the future of my grandchildren. It would appear that, thanks to a nefarious collection of bankers and politicians, the financial system that we all depend upon is being wrecked from within. Major economies are systematically having their credit rating down graded because the financiers fear that the individual countries cannot meet their debts.


Recently France went down the tubes ( I won't even talk about Portugal, Italy, Greece and Spain) but at least we always have the good old USA to prop up the western economies with their sound dollar...but do we?


I have just read an article which gave me the 'heebie jeebies' because it confirms the rumours that 'Uncle Sam' has been ruined by four years of Barack Obama and his mates in exactly the same way that Gordon Brown ruined the UK! Our PM always talks about the importance of our triple 'A' credit rating which is so important because it ensures that the financiers believe that our economy is stable and we can pay back our debts. 


Now comes the news that the United States has lost their AAA rating. That should be a huge story in the mainstream media but did you know? It gets worse because the USA lost it's AAA rating in July 2011 and the recent downgrading was from AA+ to AA!! Can you imagine that the United States is financially in the same state as Greece!!!


In reality, thanks to the policies and agenda of Barack Obama and his cohorts, the United States is skint. Read the report ....they are broke! So what does that mean for the world? When the USA cannot keep ahead of the arms race then someone will challenge them. That could lead to a World War. 


I fear the world is in a parlous state. There is little doubt that there has been a concerted effort from on high to rebalance the scales and reduce the 'comfort' of western European society. We have been invaded, our culture has been denigrated, our economy wrecked and   our military power reduced. It is so intentional and obvious but at the same time they have also dumbed down education and cushioned the 'unwashed' from reality.


The 'people' are being protected but the 'educated' are being attacked and destroyed. We 'the educated' do not have too many opportunities left to vote 'them' out of power. It may already be too late. Our next opportunity will be at the May local elections. It could be the last! One thing is for certain they are not telling us the truth. They dare not tell us the truth. The truth is extremely scary!

Somalia



Islamist insurgents ae beleived to be holding Judith Tebbutt in Kismayo, along the coast from the resort of Kiwayu where she was seized
Add caption
I fully support the family of Judith Tebbutt who have gathered together a huge sum of money to pay the ransom to get her back. I cannot believe that anyone in the same situation would not do the same. 


What I do find worrying is that we have admitted a huge number of Somalis into our country and we also clearly give them Foreign Aid! Now surely they must be encouraged to respond to that aid. Please do not tell me that their government could not stop this if they spent the Aid in the correct way. Once again our largesse is being ignored. If we stopped it and then repaid the Tebbutt family their outgoings then perhaps they would rethink?


It is the language they understand. Simple innit!

What has it got to do with us?

I wonder just how many other people this morning are throwing objects at the television after listening to Andrew Mitchell, the International Development Secretary, blethering on about international aid.  Once again Andrew Marr, after nailing him to the mast, allowed him to wriggle out of the main question...why are we still throwing money at India which they do not need or want?

They briefly touched on the question of Somalia where a journalist had reported that once again Somalia was being 'assisted' because of a discovery of oil. This slippery character failed to address the question and was allowed to waffle on. Whenever I see him I am reminded of photos of him cosying up to some of the worst despots that Africa has to offer.

He presides over the abject waste of taxpayer's money and is one of our PM's 'friends' who never has to deal with austerity like everyone else. Like most of the 'modernisers' he is very good at wasting our money and will continue to do so at every conceivable opportunity.
This country will never get back on an even keel until we get rid of Andrew Mitchell and every politician who thinks like him.

Foreign Aid

Anyone who has read my posts over the years knows that I am implacably against the scam that we label international aid. We have poured billions into this huge black hole much of it I suspect has never reached the intended target. Now at long last one of the recipients of these 'bribes', India, has admitted that they don't need or want this aid as it is demeaning.

Now currently our debt is reported as being one trillion pounds. Annually we pay billions purely in interest so we are borrowing money purely so that we can give it away! This is the economics of insanity. They are debating this subject currently on the 'Wright Stuff' and predictably Lembit Opik, a former MP, supports this colossal waste of resource justifying himself by suggesting that we owe India because of our colonial past. What monstrous rubbish!

How does he justify the money that we give to Russia or China? We, the public are always being told that we must tighten our belts and yet the politicians continue to squander huge sums on dodgy projects. Look at the proposals for a high speed rail link from London to Birmingham. The cost and destruction to the countryside will never justify saving a few minutes on travel for the lucky few who could afford to use it.

When will we breed a politician who recognises common sense?

The Race to the Bottom!

frankie cocozza fake Frankie Cocozza Fights With Girls At X Factor Party While Winking At Big Brother SlotIt is becoming difficult to weed out a worthwhile subject from the misery that is being heaped on the British public. Day after day we are subjected to humiliation from all quarters. Yesterday I watched the weekly Punch and Judy Show called PM's Question Time where the opposition asks a series of meaningless questions which the PM avoids answering. In the meantime the nation is facing a crisis in industry, the young (those that are employable) cannot secure a job, foreign criminals are committing unspeakable crimes and nobody is even addressing the social breakdown that down here on planet Earth we are witnessing.

We, as a nation, still 'bung' India foreign aid which apparently is expected to encourage them to award us lucrative contracts. It is being reported that India in return for our generosity has just awarded a major new 'plane' contract to France (who don't give them anything!).  Astra Zeneca has just announced the astonishing news that 7500 skilled people will soon lose their jobs. The bad news continues unabated.

In addition we now discover that the war our troops have been waging in Afghanistan which inherently most of us knew was not a great idea has all been a waste of time. So many brave lads killed or maimed and the Taliban (with the support of Pakistan) has won the battle of hearts and minds! We will eventually leave when the American and British politicians want to gain an electoral advantage and nothing will have changed.

Despite all the evidence to the contrary the UK Border Force still find it too difficult to prevent lawless individuals from strolling into this country and committing crimes against us. Even when we catch one he dies in his cell before he can be brought to trial. What is going on? Can we not do anything right? This freedom of movement throughout Europe clearly disadvantages the UK and should be brought to an end. It is yet another example of the EU doing the British no favours.

Everywhere we look the standards that we have held dear for centuries in this country are being eroded. Nothing seems to work like it did particularly in the public sector where some civil service departments appear close to collapse. Common sense has left government and been replaced by hand wringing, apathy and self serving greed.

Everywhere we look life has become a race to the bottom. The problem is we don't yet know how deep the bottom is. I get the impression that it will be a long, slow, painful descent into the abyss. Never mind folks Frankie Cocozza found his way onto the 'Wright Stuff' earlier this week! At least there is some good news!

It is amazing...in this age of austerity!

In this age of austerity have you noticed how it never applies to the 'modernisers'? In an age when we, the public, cannot afford public toilets or libraries the 'modernisers' can afford high speed railways, another London airport, an Olympics, a royal yacht and a huge bail out of the euro?

It is ridiculous! They never stop spending taxpayer's money. They cannot understand that we cannot afford their ambition. In my household I have a budget. I know what I can afford. At the moment I can afford everything that I pay for but if the going gets tough then what do I cut? First on the agenda would be Sky TV... it is a luxury that I love but when the going gets tough it would get chopped and so in government terms that could mean stopping our contributions to the European Union because it is an expensive luxury that we can't afford.

Then we have savings. Today we can still save for our future but if inflation continues to rise we would have to cut back. In government terms it means that we cannot afford the lavish Foreign Aid that we dispense to countries with better growth than ourselves. It is just common sense. 

I will never understand why all our international commitments cost we, the British, so much money. Four French soldiers get killed in Afghanistan and immediately Sarkozy threatens to withdraw the French contingent. Four!? We have been in Afghanistan longer than the Second World War. The cost in manpower has been horrific and nobody has yet been able to explain why we, an island nation, can  have our security threatened by marauding Afghans! The official excuse is pathetic so there must be another reason for so much loss of life. The cost is also horrific and so I must just concede that we are being fleeced.

Do you understand what I am saying? We do not need to beg or borrow our way out of debt. We just cut our cloth to what we can afford. I do not need SKY TVor savings to survive. I can cut so much if I have to and so can the government. They can cut so much frivolous spending, starting with their own bar and dining facility, but then they choose not to and you still vote for them! It is still time to refuse to vote ConDemLab. Don't give them your approval. They are cheating on you but when will you get the message?
