Libya... the aftermath...and the Political Class!

As the rebel troops take Tripoli and drive Ghadaffi underground the captured documents begin to indict the former Labour government.  Some of the leading Labour politicians are beginning to squirm because they were part of this awful regime which cosied up to Colonel Gaddafi and his dreadful family. Let's face it they cosied up to almost every form of wealth that they could get access to.


Top of the list is of course Tony Blair who kissed Colonel Ghaddafi at every opportunity and close behind him comes Peter Mandelson who has  ready access to Russian obligarchs. Today I heard Harriet Harman readily endorsing Foreign Aid to East Africa conveniently forgetting that here at home we cannot support our own elderly.


Today I visited my mother in hospital at Leicester General and it is sorrowful. The staff who are almost entirely from a foreign nation (thank you all) must cope with wards full of the pitiful elderly because there are very few care homes left. The money has all gone to Ethiopia, Somalia or Zimbabwe. Why doesn't Harriet Harman visit the wards in Leicester? Why does she not face this line of questioning from the mainstream media?

These leading socialists are one by one being exposed. First Tony Blair who most people agree is a war criminal, then Gordon Brown a useless Chancellor and even worse PM and on and on it goes... the lecherous Prescott, the venomous Balls (and wife) the duplicitous Ed (and his betrayed brother David) Miliband, they have all been at it and now the charges are coming home to roost. I haven't even mentioned Jacqui Smith and the jailed MPs!


Then look at the LibDems...are they not even worse? Nick Clegg lied to everybody on his election manifesto. Chris Huhne is facing serious motoring offences which everyone suspects that he is guilty of and that is the least of the charges against him. He comes across as a very unsavoury character. Then we have David Laws and his dodgy sex life...who cares apart from him and his family? Not to mention Lembik...!


Our Political Class are crass! Most of them have been corrupted long before they enter the hallowed corridors of Westmonster. Everywhere they are at it. Every office of state has been corrupted. In almost every department we have Ministers who have an agenda which does not support the English people. They are desperate to squander our taxes on projects which do not support the elderly or in fact any of us.


We all know it. Everytime we meet and discuss, usually in hushed voices, our mistrust of our politicians and police we all agree. The people know that they have been let down, the people know that we cannot trust them but as yet they don't know how to respond. I believe that one day somebody will harness this resentment and when they do then the Political Class, and the Bonus Class will feel the full force of the public anger!

I am missing something...?



Manu Tuilagi

I read  yesterday that one of England's rugby world cup stars is actually an illegal immigrant! Manu Tuilagi who is the latest in a dynasty of Samoan born brothers arrived here on a 6 month holiday visa and like thousands of others overstayed. It has long been the favourite method of beating our immigration regulations.

The Home Office apparently discovered his wheez but allegedly after an intervention by Leicester Tigers and three local MPs he has been allowed to stay. Why? He has now been declared English so that he can represent my country at rugby at the World Cup. How? He is no more eligible to play for England than any other South Pacific player.

I would be hopping mad if I was a really good player born and brought up in England and replaced by someone who has no claim to be regarded as an English national. I would just love to know how they bent the international rules to allow this to happen? Even in cricket, players (and there are plenty) must have a lengthy residential period behind them before becoming eligible for the England team.

I know that he is a very good player. I always want England to do well in any sport but I think that this is cheating. If he plays and we win it will take the sheen off it for me. Cheats should not prosper!

David Cameron

I have often complained that David Cameron is so good with words but not so good with actions. Today in the Mail on Sunday he writes passionately about the social problems facing us in the modern UK (scroll down for his article).

He clearly understands what is necessary but so far he has been unable to engineer the changes that he outlines. OK I understand that it takes time to unravel the myriad of legislation imposed on us by the socialists both in and out of Europe but it can be done and if we are to save our lifestyle it must be done.

Your article proves that you understand the problems PM so now just ignore the LibDems and make yourself a national hero. You have an opportunity to become a Churchillian figure in the history of our nation. Gordon Brown ignored everyone to become a force for evil now you need to ignore everyone to become a force for good. If you did you could rule forever!!

Labour lied....surely not!?

Alistair Darling

The mainstream media are full today of revelations that the government under the Labour party was unfit to govern! Well would you believe it? For almost three years I wrote scathingly about Gordon Brown and his cohorts and now one of them, Alistair Darling, has now confessed, albeit for profit, that Gordon Brown was to all intents and purposes unfit for the position of Prime Minister.

Why did he wait until he could profit from the revelation? Why could he not have stood up to Brown when the chips were down? Why was he such a coward when the British public needed honesty?

History always outs the dishonest politicians. Someone is always prepared in hindsight (usually for profit) to divulge what most of us knew was the fact at the time. Alistair Darling appeared (usually on the BBC) time after time and refused to criticise Gordon Brown. He continually supported the party line throughout the time that he was Chancellor of the Exchequer.

He was just one of a cabal of Labour politicians who I am convinced that history will record should have served prison sentences for what they did to this country. To this day I cannot understand how some Labour MPs are in jail and others, Jacqui Smith comes instantly to mind, are free to enjoy the spoils of their time in office.


Just remember the Labour party installed Gordon Brown into office without an election. The Labour party, even when everyone could see that he was unfit for the role, continued to support him. Most of them are still on the opposition front benches so when they next stand for election (Ed Miliband, Mr and Mrs Balls, the Eagles sisters, 'wee' Duggie Alexander etc etc) just remember they ALL knew that Gordon was a moron!

Care for the Elderly

Two days ago I posted about the situation regarding my 95 year old mother who despite being so frail and forgetful was pronounced by Social Services as not being 'substantially' in need of care. I informed the assessor at the time that her decision was likely to cause my mother suffering in the future.

This morning we received the inevitable call that she had fallen overnight and her morning carer and found her on the floor. This had the knock on effect that the home had to call the paramedics who had to admit her to hospital. This will mean an extra strain on A &E and the additional resources required to process her through X Ray and a ward before we, once again, have to bring her back to her room (a round trip in this day and age of 30 miles). This is the fourth time this year that we have gone through this procedure!

The politicians and their Bonus Class employees in the public services are happy to squander our taxes in this way rather than keeping the essential care homes open. The manner in which we treat our elderly is not worthy of a third world country and remember we will all get old.

Billions is spent on the workshy some of whom have never earned a taxable income in their lives but the elderly must suffer even though they have probably worked all their lives, never mind fought in the wars that the politicians revel in. The inequality in modern day society is a scandal that those in Westmonster should be ashamed of. The problem is that only those involved seem to care.

The Benefits System

This signpost probably mirrors my thoughts as I read a Daily Express headline today which declared that 4 million households in the UK today are on benefits.

It was compounded yesterday when a man, who attempted to trip up a guy with a knife making a getaway after a stabbing at the Notting Hill Carnival, was concerned that he would lose his disability benefit if identified! He is Ukranian.

Now I must just pose this question...why the hell are we supporting disabled foreigners? What on earth has he got to offer this country? Who made it possible for him to come here and claim benefits?

This benefits system is clearly out of control. The Coalition must get a grip of it. In the United States they only allow unemployment benefit for 2 years and it is a system that we should adopt. Too many families are being allowed to overclaim for year after year which eventually condemns them to a life of hopelessness and poverty.

This nation should recover our spirit of independence and lose the spirit of dependency. It is up to the government to lead the way and break up this dependency on the state. Human nature dictates that if you are paid more for slacking than you are for working then you will slack! It is time to change.

Education

Very rarely in these modern times do we see a headline from the mainstream media which actually promises to improve our society. Long before we shamefully surrendered our sovereignty to the  unaudited and unelected socialist/banker inspired European Union our society had been under attack from left wing conspirators.

The most despicable attack has been on Education where for decades the teaching unions have supported a decline in educational standards and classroom discipline. Everything possible has been thrown at education to undermine achievement and discourage ability so when I read that Michael Gove, our Education Minister, plans to bring back classroom discipline I just wonder how he is going to do it?

There are so many forces at many tiers of education who will automatically rail against any reversal of their damning and disastrous policies that it would take an enormous effort to unravel and unpick the web of deceipt which pervades English education.

I therefore await with interest the future classroom confrontations as teachers attempt to regain a modicum of control after so many years of contempt for their authority. Somehow I cannot see the classroom anarchy changing overnight but at least it is a start.
