Galloway has blood on his hands

There is at this moment only one person who can say George Galloway has not drank alcohol and it is George Galloway.  But my more than suspicious mind comes to play.  Scots drink alcohol, even if it has been once in their life, they drink it.  It is in their DNA.  They may not all be raving alcoholics but they all will and do at some time in their life drink alcohol.  So with this strong belief George must be lying.  If you were to ask any Scot for their opinion on Gorgeous Georgie I am sure they would agree.  I do not personally know George, I do not know his family or his friends or anyone else who may have been associated with him, but I most definitely do not believe his quote:

"...I, George Galloway, do not drink alcohol and never have..."

It is my belief anyone who judges this statement to be true, must truly be naive. Unfortunately we have no alternative source stepping forward to deny Georgie's statement as false.  I'm sure there is a someone out there who does know, someone who was once close to George.  Lets not forget Georgie's background, he certainly does get around and his friends are rather on the dark side.

A friend of President Asad of Syria, on TV in Syria he praised the 154 jihads military assaults every day in Iraq, it is also Asad who is currently in the news for bombing his own populace just because the no longer want him to rule and have quietly tried to demonstrate.  George supported Saddam Hussein and it was Saddam who killed thousands upon thousands of his own Muslim countrymen.  George congratulates openly the glorification of extremists especially when this fits in with the popular zeitgeist.  He openly has sympathises with Hezbollah and their view all Jews should be killed, Georgie has found one political extremist after another and played upon their popular extremist views for Georgie's own sake.  He is nothing but a user and a liar.

The evidence is there for all to see, just go to You Tube and see the videos.  George by his vocal support has blood on his hands.  How the population of Bradford can not understand or see George for what he is, is sad.  He will be their MP, he will take their money, shout from tree tops, bare his chest and fight lions but all the time he is counting his own bank balance and his own popularity.  He likes nothing more than the lime light.  He is a hypocrite in every sense of the word and any reasonable person who is able to think independently can learn this in a matter of moments.

When listening to several You Tube clips with Georgie I can only come to one opinion.  Mr Galloway is mentally ill, I'm not a doctor, this is just an opinion, but with an hour of hearing Mr Galloway and several different interviewers he has frequently contradicted himself and can not tell the truth no matter what it is.  Alternatively if he is not mentally ill, why is Georgie a fanatic in his own way?  Because he likes the attention and he doesn't care who gives it to him.  He will say or do anything for attention or for money.  Lets not forget George playing the cat in the Big Brother household.  George will stand on a box or a dead body just to get noticed.  Citizens of West Bradford you have no idea who is now sleeping in your bed.  Then again we all have the right to make our own mistakes.  In George's case, it happens quite frequently though.

 

Greek Independence Day, mind the oranges

Today marks the great Greek Independence Day.  It celebrates the Greeks overcoming four centuries of Ottoman rule, they fought back and took their own country into their own control.  It marks a proud and special moment in time.  However, it with sadness the Greeks celebrate this day.  Truthfully they have little to celebrate.  Their heads are hung low.  Greece is not an independent nation, it is now a small dog who has a large master called the EU.  This master is being cruel to Greece.  He holds back food and water, he doesn't take Greece out for walks, he shades poor Greece from any sunlight so the sun has no warmth.  Greece is being treated disrespectfully by the EU and by it's own politicians.  Greece wants to be free again but they are not allowing it.  So Greece holds its head low, scavenging any tit bits it can find.  Knowing as time goes on it will get more discontent, it will lose more weight and no longer have control of anything at all.  It wants it's own freedom back.  It wants to see the light again and to feel warm.  Things are bad.

In Athens today the authorities have decided to removed oranges from the trees.  As the politicians show their faces at the celebration, the people are down in heart.  They removed the oranges just in case they were used as projectiles and pelted at the so called democratic politicians.  Politicians who no longer hear what the people want to say.  With one voice they are saying it but nothing is being done.  They are saying bring back the Drachma and dump the Euro.  As time passes by it is the EU now which runs Greece.  They have no imagination, they just want to stifle growth, but growth can only come if there is incentive, desire, recognition and most importantly independence.  If Greek politicians carry on down this route there will be only one foreseeable outcome.  Rioting.  Bigger crowds, louder crowds, full blown rioting as the people feel impotent against the austerity they have now to suffer. 

Listen politicians, the default must happen or you will starve to death your own people.  Hear what they have to say and stop being the chastised starving dog the EU is making of your country.  Become independent again and break the mould.  There is nothing to lose, just do it.

Hijab comment at airport

The creator of Fireman Sam, David Jones was stopped at a Heathrow airport after making a silly little quip which was not aggressive, discriminatory or racist.  As a woman wearing a hijab walked through Jones said "If I was wearing my scarf over my face I wonder what would happen?"  He was then detained for a hour by cretinous airport officials and questioned by Police.  This was the comment of a man who is frustrated with how crazy political correctness has become.  He got penalised and he was not wearing any suspicious clothing.  He was white, a male and a pensioner.  This man was penalised more because he spoke his mind, in a country with alleged free speech he suffered.  The individual who needs re educating is the one who took the decision Jones should be detained.  This was an innocent comment.  If we are to take political correctness further every individual who wears an item which obscures their face should be stopped and asked to remove it.  As human beings we read faces, eyes are the windows to the soul.  Facial expression tells a lot, if people are happy, sad, tense or shifty these expressions are universal.  The incredibility of this story was such that as the news papers were reviewed on the Andrew Marr Show this Sunday morning, Andrew Marr himself verbally skited over the subject and directed his fellow paper reviewers away from it.  This is supposed to be a serious political correspondent and he can not make up his mind whether he should speak for reason or not.  Again no doubt there was some apprehension, after all he had a show to run and didn't want to be stopped for an hour.  Sad, because this is a serious political question and brief discussion was most certainly warranted.

In security terms this is probably more important than moronic airport staff.  If someone is acting in a suspicious clues to their actions will be more apparent from the expression on their face.  It should therefore go, ever airport in the country should have a rule of no head wear except in the case of medical necessity, and a doctor's note.  Religion should not be allowed to become a justification for terrorism.  If a fanatic is going to do something to endanger the lives of others they will do it in a way to shroud their intentions.  Jones, should be given a medal for saying what the rest of us think.  Indeed.  There is nothing to stop Jones from going out and creating his own religious group, one where males cover their faces and walk in public areas.  I wonder then what everyone would be saying. 

Lastly the actions of these official trumped up self important persons has now made the notion of a free society, and freedom of speech questionable.  We all have opinions in this world and we are allowed to state them.  If the woman in the hijab didn't moan about Jones comments why should it matter to someone else.  She had the equal right to complain, she didn't.   For the sake of security let us now argue for the removal off head and facial coverings at our airports and certainly in all european countries.

India buys fighter aircraft rather than tackles poverty

There are actions which are so outrageous the deny belief.  A prime example now is India and how it treats its own people.  This is a country with great poverty but also great riches.  It has more billionaires than the UK.  However, rather than consider ways to tackle poverty it is now purchasing fighter aircraft from France but does nothing to help the poor.  The UK gives more in international development finance to India than India gives to itself.   India spent ten billion British pounds on these fighter aircraft, India spent money on ensuring the F1 Grande Prix included it on the circuit, India has a space program.  So why, why does the UK give any aid to India at all?  Maybe in India they do not believe in the right to life, there is no respect to it.  While here in the UK jobs which were indigenous to this country have been sold abroad to India.  Because they do it cheaper.  Then we lose employment and gain in an additional cost of unemployment benefits.  I personally detest speaking to any call centre and find at the end of the phone line is someone who is in India and has just given me an English name to call them by.  At this point I know they are lying.  If they can not tell me their real name how can I tell anything else they say to me is the truth.  My heckles raise.  I know being self protectionist and insular is a bad thing, but the facts are this is not a level playing field and it is probably about time the UK thought twice about giving away finance to countries which don't need but lack in moral values.  What happened to the old saying "charity begins at home?"

The Unemployed and politicians

I am fed up with my taxes being paid to people who are skiving off the state.  People who have been unemployed for a long time and especially those who have no intention to work.  If they have been unemployed for more than a year they should be made to work for their benefit.  Given public duties for example, like 16 hours a week picking up dog poo, scraping off chewing gum from the pavement, or stick them in front of CCTV monitors so they can view them for crime taking place.  Anything.  It doesn't matter what it is they need to get off their lazy arses and bloody do something.  I am convinced they just have no impetus.  This particularly goes for the young.  If you are physically capable then forced bloody labour, or forced conscription.  The same should go for any person no matter what nationality.  If they are claiming state benefits it should not be a free ticket for the rest of their life.  Paying taxes is what makes a person a responsible individual.  Meeting other people, working, having a boss, taking part of life this is what the unemployed are shirking off. 

As for the government and such crappy initiatives as A4E, this organization don't help either.  There has to be a structured induction back into the workplace.  Training.  Whether it is for 6 months or 2 years, this has got to be supported by the government.  Those unemployed people out there have skills as well but they don't know it.  They need pushing in the right direction.  An aptitude test to see where their natural qualities lie and then bang, hit them with a course which qualifies them and gives them real in work experience.  One where employers are paid to help them train staff.  This country needs building up at a skill level, not one bloody cut back to pay the bloody deficit after another.  This government is starving the economy.  Give people something to do.  Give them anything so they can get a feeling of their own self worth and ability to do things.  Anything at all.  We have to look to the future and like it or not Cameron and Osborne it means getting out of the mind set of clearing up a deficit at the expense of the country's future.  For there will be no future.  Don't they get it?  Are they so stupid?  Stick an unemployed person in their job and see if they can do better, we might even be surprised.

Hell, there's a thought.  All the unemployed people getting together and voting in their own MPs.  People who represent the unemployed and put forward policies to help them get into work.  They'd bloody win every seat they'd contest.  There is so much negativity in the current policies of government it is like Cameron is accepting the country is in the pits.  There is nothing progressive.  Cut this, cut that.  Soon there will be no toilet paper in public loos, you'll have to take your own tissues because Cameron will decree it.  .

Sir Fred Goodwin - fat cat, tyrant, fraudster, what is he?

More news has today added to the pile of evidence pointing a finger of downright incompetence at Sir Fred Goodwin the ex boss of Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS).  It was RBS who were bailed out by the British tax payer to the tune of 45 billion pounds.  It was Freddy the shredder, who walked away without so much as a single law suit or day behind bars.  It is Sir Fred who was knighted and has shown beyond all doubt he should be relieved of his honorary status, and could only serve better penance for his actions if he were locked up in a tower, with only bread and water for the rest of his life.  His incompetence has meant every man woman and child has paid in the kitty for a slice of his rotten bank.  Had the tax payer not then the country would of been bought to it's knees in the biggest crash europe could of ever seen.

A report published by the Financial Services Authority (FSA) into the goings on at RBS has been viewed, by "Dirty Freddie's lawyers" has said an inside source.  Every single line of it has been checked with a fine comb, because Teflon Freddie doesn't want to be prone to law suits from his old customers.  It was Fred who oversaw the deal to purchase AMN Ambrose, a failing business not worth the paper it was written on.  In fact the report has not been published for the public eye, it has been put under lock and key.  This is not just highly sensitive material, it could mean Fred is open to being drowned in a Tsunami of civil law suits.  This is the man who staff saw stripping assets and giving himself bonuses, year after year.  This is a man who revelled in his selfish Ebenezer qualities.  A man who can sit on a nice island hide away for the rest of his life and be comfortable to the end of his days.  While pensioners whose providers had bought into his company see their savings diminish.  This is a man who single handily takes a lot of the blame for the recession we are in, but has washed his hands of responsibility.  This is a man who deserves one place and that place is behind bars.

Look out Fred, it's only a matter of time before some smart hacker gets the report in the open.  Roll on lawsuits.

Politics is serious stuff

The UK is in a recession which is being made worse by the policies of a Tory mad government.  A government cabinet which is in large part composed of multi-millionaires who want more power and riches by being in the spot light.  The British people unfortunately are complacent when it comes to being politically active, so what we get is what we deserve.  The largest portion of none voters will hold an equally large number who will be effected by the present Tory policies.  I sadly predict this country is in for a very rough ride over the next four years.  It will not be until the 7th May 2015 that a new election will take place and between now and then this country will see the greatest poverty it hasn't seen in at least the last 60 years.  What makes me mad is how those electors who didn't vote will now be dragged into a new world of poverty. It will be their complacency which is to blame.  That and a coalition government who have digressed so far away from their manifesto's of 2010 they appear to be complete tellers of untruths.  Notably, though the recession is not purely down to the governing of the UK but rather multiple factors, but had there previously been better governance it might not of been so bad.

To begin with we have the banks.  These companies now have got so large they by default can not be allowed to fail.  Over the last 10 years, one bank after another has been voraciously bought up, until the resulting banks are so large their success and failure is tethered like a kite to the UK, and the UK is a little boat being pulled along.  At one time there were many building societies.  However, these have been turned into banks, but as a building society there were different rules in place about how they ran their finances.  They had to hold capital assets, they had to have the money in their holdings before speculating.  As a bank they don't.  How a very few people with chosen lucky money jobs in banks can be allowed to bet away on the financial markets and then be rewarded great riches is a product of capitalism.  Had the British Government allowed these banks who had over stretched themselves go to the wall they would of had their just deserts, however it didn't.  It supported them because had they gone bankrupt in this precarious economy we are in there would have been a real possibility the effect would effect every tax payer.  But they do not deserve to be running financial concerns taking into account their previous actions.  What they do deserve is regulation, regulation and more regulation.  They also should be capped in size because they are way too big.  There should be a maximum capital value for banks.  They so need  to be broken up.   The only people who really have the power are rich people, and they also  look after number one.  Gone are the Victorian values bankers used to have, in which they put back into society as a sign of their morality.  Morality for a banker does not exist.

The government is completely overhauling the benefits system with the introduction of the Universal Credit.  However, the real reason UC is here is to cut costs, it is to reduce the welfaire bill because this is the biggest financial burden to the entire country.  There is no doubt a lot of skivers out there in this country, but equally there are not enough practical programs or educational courses to help them in the transition from unemployment to employment.  There has to be a support network but it doesn't exist and never has really existed.  UC will be ran by the Department of Works and Pensions, in itself the DWP are barely and organization fit for purpose.  It manages to get by, but that is about it.  The DWP are incapable of dealing with all their normal welfare benefits let alone take on the extra burden of benefits which were once devolved to either local authorities or HMRC.  There has not been formulated an IT system which would be able to deal with it, even though this Tory government seem to believe 'agile methodology' or technology will pave the way.  As an example of an IT disaster there is the system the previous government wanted to bring in for the NHS, it cost billions of pounds and was useless.  The same will no doubt happen with UC, however the repercussions will be so dire as to steep the entire economy and society into a vicious cycle of depression, recession and probably violence.  Yes.  This is nothing to do with disgruntled people in the new UC welfare system but rather this will be millions of people pushed into deep poverty, many pushed into homelessness and worse. 

We may think we are in a recession now, but the reality is this is just the tip of an iceberg.  What we have we deserve, a travesty has been born.
