Load Of Wind

Kyotism, (tilting at windmills) we have slouched towards wind scale disaster.Underneath the Green roots is darkest Red.There is no man made climate change - it is a Communist fiction. One wind turbine on British soil or sea is one too many. Let them stand idle - as they do anyway most of the time,fitting monuments to Blair folly.Stop this madness Now!

Heseltine Takes Tea With Mussolini

Corporatism or Fascism is the merging of State with business.Up pops a figure from the past with this new idea from the 30's Mr Tarzanizm himself old Hezza.The coalition needs him like a hole in the heart with his kind hearts and coronaries. Fascizm,Communism and Socialism -Centralism have been rightly discredited.Simply transposing all of that same dynamic to a local level will just duplicate the same madness but on a smaller localised scale.As well meaning and decent as Mr Heseltine obviously is his plans will put the final nail in what is left of Capitalism in this country -and that isn't much.Rather than a brief however tenuous it may prove to be I would like to give him a zimmer frame,slippers and the Collectivised works of Disraeli but keep him a million miles away from public policy -in fact lets not have one of those at all!

Mind Your Grammar

The destruction of the grammar schools was an act of cultural educational vandalism worthy of Charming Mao.Paul Boating with his irony bipass operation could not make the link between his bringing copies of Tongue's Red book into his grammar school and the destruction of the latter by his beloved Labour party soon after he Left.Shirl the girl must have imbibed Mao's little tome to play her part in the downfall of the grammars along with Crossland and other haters of excellence and enemas of promise as they putsched forward their Garmmarscian cultural revolution.Where is she now,does she have no shame?

Greece Leads The Way In Tax Revolt

What a model country Greece is in prefiguring a tax free society.They just refuse to pay taxes!Why bother when UK taxpayers will fund their welfare programmes?! If we stop paying them too the Greeks will have to find a job and so will our parasitic political elite who have grown bloated by parasitic feeding off the people, empire building power lusting and indulging in rabid Statist mania on the life blood of the people.

Jimmy Saville Was An Amateur

Children being given contraceptives at 13 in our State schools without their parent's knowledge.Let us take our eyes of the smale scale violator Jimmy Saville.Our Socialist schools for scandal have far greater ambition to corrupt our youth and faciltate pre teen sex.With the collusion of the health services they intend to roll out the Savilisation and Glitterisation of our society but what is worse they seek to put a characteristic gloss of sophism and ersatz morality on to their moral depravity.

PC Plod

The politicisation of the police has been a calamitous disaster. I think the rot set in when they were unionised.Theirs has been a closed shop of strange handshakes, an insular culture of nods and winks,a sense that there were beyond the law themselves and a peculiar and over developed sense of entitlement and desire for emolument over achievement,and an absurdly generous pension system with early retirement that has rendered the police force soft and complacent.The police culture on top of all that has been captured by a weird sub Marxist politically correct dynamic which sees the police arresting people for saying politically incorrect things but appearing seemingly impotent to deal with the menace of low level and hard core crime.

The Left Has Won

Yes Frasier Nelson is correct in a recent piece i the Telegraph stating that Labour people run public bodies and quangoes etc..The total ideological capture by the Left of practically everything under the sun has never been fully grasped even to this day.You could add to the list business and so called free enterprise itself which has undergone by stealth back door nationalisation.You may think you are running a business but it is so bound up by red tape and gov edicts that you are really nothing more than an unpaid tax collector and welfare administrator for the ever expanding tentacled State.

School For Scandal

The Blowhard NUT leader does not want there to be a rigorous barrier preventing unsuitable people becoming teachers.Why would that be? What purblind ideological malevolence drives these people,has not enough damage been done to successive generations of failed pupils,enough academic carnage wrought,a vast expanse of cultural wasteland opened up by the Marxist footsoldiers in the State sector with their covert Gramscian directives and agendas? If we want education to flourish in this country we need to close down the toxic teachers unions and drive them out of our schools -and then privatise the lot.

BBC Hoist On Own Peturd

Now the Saville debacle is engulfing the BBC perhaps they will lose some of their enthusiasm for home affairs select committees or whatever the Levenson thingy is?Their obsession with media wrongdoing re Murdoch will of course not extend to self examination of their own orgyan stables.Already they have gone on the defensive accusing the culture secretary of 'politicisation' of the affair.It is almost as if the word chutzpah was invented for the BBC.When it is caught bang to rights it expects a whole different set of value judgements to be applied.Its over developed sense of exceptionalism and denialism has a pathology all of its own.And is it not absurd for BBC journalists to seek to put a totally fictional distance between themselves and the organisation,talking about it in the third person as if they were not broadcasting from its very putrid bowels when discussing the Saville debacle!Cognitive disonnance on stilts or what?

Free The Airwaves!

What is needed is a Conservative TV station like they have in the US re Fox.Why not a Daily Mail channel? After all, there is a Guardian channel - it's called BBC lol.All the while the likes of Naughtie Guardian and Humphries rule the airwaves,radical out of the box thinkers like Peter Hitchens Richard Littlejohn James Delingpole and a host of others of their ilk et al will be marginalised.Free the airwaves!Why is the general public treated like children when it comes to broadcasting? They can be trusted to buy tendentious newspapers but not watch tendentious TV channels.This is all very ill-sorted,paternalistic and frankly has more than a totalitarian hue to it.

Jail House Rock( Not) The Vote

Give the prisoners a padded cell,the Bible, the works of Shakespeare and Ayn Rand. Teach them to read if they can't,a radio fixed on radio 4,five pieces of fruit and veg a day and not much else. But give them the vote? I hardly think so.Give them long sentences instead of letting them out after five minutes.In fact if I could influence penal policy the recidivism rate would nose dive as they would be taught how not to become criminals and develop a success mindset instead of the criminal loser one...

In Loco Parentis

Why do people obsess so much about what is going on outside their front door when the real determining factor is what is going on inside theirs.If parents love their children and protect them with boundaries and precepts the whole world outside can go to hell in a handbasket and they will be immune,in a virtuous bubble,un buffeted by the cold winds of unreason arbitrary whim and the vicissitudes of fate.They won't have to worry about the corrupting influence of television because they will have control of the off button.They will police the internet and put on it the proper checks and bars.They will monitor all of their children's influences,mobile phones,the lot.They won't have to worry about going to the supermarket and whether or not their child will create a scene and demand sweets,nor will they complain that the shops cynically target their children by placing the sweets in a strategic child level position.

They will not have to worry about their children falling into drug addiction or prey to sex fiends because they will teach them to avoid such predators. This may involve a visit to the local morgue to show their children what may await a fall into narcotic or alcohol abuse.They will have no one to blame if their children are beyond their control but themselves.Having learned to control themselves their children will love them,not resent them and welcome their attentive vigilance over their interests and know that such light touch protection is love.

The Name Is Blogs,James Blogs

News that the secret services are going to diversify their employment pool by going beyond the traditional public schools for their agents and dumbing down to chavdom via State schools.Prospective chav secret agent may feel more at home if the Bond theme tunes are modified. Bling fingers, Bling Is Forever....Then again the public schools created many traitors to be Blunt so maybe we will get a better quality of stealthdom amongst the tinker tailors or their modern equivalent.

Victory For Madness

How do you now avoid justice in the UK? Just get a lawyer to say that if you are subjected to legal process you will kill yourself.Centuries of British jurisprudence demolished in seconds by one of the worst disastrous home secretaries in living memory.And invoking the Human Rights Act to do it too.

The look of sheer incredulity on the face of the American commentator on ch 4 said it all when listening to a Conservative apologist of his catastrophic decision.

The argument about the crime being committed on British soil is of course the worst sort of sophistry.It is as if Mc Kinnon had created a long mechanical arm from his bedroom that stretched across the Atlantic,guided it into the Pentagon,deleted files etc,withdrew the mechanical arm back again and claimed he could not be extradited because he never physically set foot on American soil!

Just because you can commit criminal acts by the click of a mouse does not imply immunity from the consequences.The same results were achieved than if he had physically breached the Pentagon walls and broken into the building.The added irony is that we are quite content to have people extradited to EU countries with far less rigorous legal system than the US which is similar to ours and not based on insane Napoleonic principles.

Christopher And His Fiends

What happens when the Left falls out?I don't know, but it can be very entertaining! Like an existential frisson,the divided Left is always good news for us freedom and liberty lovers.Its a bit like I imagine what it must have felt like when the Soviet Communists and the German Nazis were slaughtering one another on an industrial scale.Just sit back and enjoy the spectacle.It always amuses me how mad Leftists know that they can no longer truckle and fawn to the old Soviet union but they can express the love that dare not speak its name in disguised form by eulogising over the heroic battle the Soviets fought against the Nazis in Stalingrad or wherever it was.

Yesterday it was Media Hassan who was caught up in an argument with a fellow Leftist Guardian feminist on radio 4 Today programme.I have not enjoyed an exchange on the radio so much for a very long time.Hassan dared recently to take a critical position on abortion and apparently has been excoriated and kicked about like an football across the pages of the media ever since.Do I feel any sympathy for him? None whatsoever.Conservatives and pro-freedom Capitalists have been brutally assaulted by the Left for the longest time.Now lets see how a leftist likes it when he is subject to ad hominmen abuse and unwarranted character assassination for daring to deviate from the standard received wisdom of the Left.

Christopher Hitchens suffered the same fate when he dared to support the war on terror and Bush.He went from hero to zero overnight.Him I do have sympathy with because he was a great man,a brilliant journalist and a person of principle unlike Hassan who is a vile attack dog of the left and who has now at long last got a taste of his own medicine.

Someone Has Blundered

Looking at an old book of 1922 poetry of my grandparent's I read the inscription 'awarded for good conduct'.A schoolchild today would probably consider being given a 500 page book of Tennyson's poems punishment for bad conduct. We were told as children that gran had to be carried to school piggy back because she was that poor she did not have any shoes.Even into her 80's she could recite pages of poetry by heart so she had obviously benefited from her gift.Today's children are not made of such stuff I fear.They may have ipads and God knows what else but I know who is truly impovershed and it wasn't my gran.Someone indeed has blundered.

Elizabeth Barrat Browning Syndrome

A friend once coined the phenomenon Elizabeth Barret Browning Syndrome.For those who may not know she was a poet and lost in love and so took to her bed -permanently. The friend said what would happen if Barrat Browning had lived in a Welsh mining village and the only choice open to her was going down the mine or starving?She would be up before the lark and queueing for her turn down the mine.

I think the same about todays welfariat.Most of the people who are unemployed tend to be those who are awfully particular about what job they will and will not do.If they have to choose between wiping someone's backside in a care home or drawing the dole you don't have to know much about human nature to know which one many will choose.

When the State comes along and gives them that precise choice small wonder we have a major incentive and motivation problem amongst the unemployed.I put out adverts for job vacancies and no one one replies and yet we are told we are in the worst recession for decades.Something is not right about this picture.I know of people who are on benefits and they have not been pushed into taking a job or losing benefits.This so-called reform of the welfare system seems to be more rhetorical than real methinks.

Within A Budding Gove

I knew Mr Gove was a class act.Fresh on the heels of sorting out the mess wrought by Socialised education that has laid countless generations of youth low,blighted aspirations and created social desolation on an industrial scale, he is now turning his powerful sights on that other arch enemy of promise the EU and giving it due warning: shape up or we ship out.Cometh the hour,cometh the man.

There is no hope of course for this morally depraved institution with is moribund death grip on the windpipe of Europe,there is no hope that it will suddenly see the error of its ways and reform its institutions any more than a scorpion will stop stinging.It can't help it,that's its nature.All we can do is assist its terminal decline by walking away proudly and saying,no more dane geld,goodbye and good riddance.

How dare they award a peace prize to this obscenity and tell us it has stopped wars (ie German caused wars), tie us up in their tyranical yoke and seek our moral imprimatur for the favour.Screw you EU,may your death be swift and rid us of your malevolent curse!

EU Wins Nobel Peace Prize!

Saywhat? Next year's Nobel Peace Prize will go to Iran for its peaceful nuclear programme? Or,the Taliban for promoting harmony and pacific love and benign will to all men? The age of satire is now officially dead.It just cannot compete with straight reporting of the news.Greece lies in economic ruins the whole misbegotten EU project is in tatters -give the authors of this desolation a prize!

This Is The BBC

On A Point Of View BBC radio 4, a 10 minute opinion piece this week will be.Yet another left wing oriented person called Martin Jaques,more of whom at the end.Shall we explore why this tendency to only have left wing people on the BBC is, or shall we look into why cats chase mice or dogs bark.Because of its very nature the BBC cannot be anything other than left wing-liberal.It is possible for a newspaper to be Left or Right wing but it is practically impossible for a public service broadcasting service to be anything other than left wing.Why would it reflect a pro-capitalist ethos when its very existence is predicated upon an ideology that supports a State run broadcasting service ie mixed economy-socialist?To be anything other than what it is would be like proverbial turkeys voting for christmas

I do not complain about the fact that the BBC is a left wing institution,there is a place for left of centre oriented broadcasting station -its just that it should not be funded out of taxation via the licence fee(those who argue that it is not a tax but a fee are engaged in mere semantics).

Then there are those who try risibly and absurdly to deny that the BBC is tendentious but then what else can they do,for if they acknowledge the blindingly obvious fact namely that the instiution is biased the gig will be up and privatisation would be inevitable So they must keep up this absurd fiction about political neutrality.The very idea is a myth as no one can conceal their political inclinations any more than they can conceal their body language -it leaks from them every time they open their mouths.Returning to Martin Jaques.How many people when listening to his first broadcast about China on the Point of View programme will know that for years he was editor of Marxism Today the now defunct magazine?At least he will find the BBC a comfortable spiritual home from home.

Love Labour's Loss

It is always left to the Conservatives to clean out the orgean stables from Labour's financial debaucheries.And then they have to put up with the endless carping from the very authors of the devastation ie Labour.'There is no money left' they said and that uncharacteristic unguarded confession should be the millstone round Labour's necks and ensure that they never get their pilfering purloining kleptocratic hands on the nation's coffers again.

No doubt about it Cameron cuts a dash and hopefully taxes as well.He has nailed the Labour canard that when you allow the mugged victim known as the taxpayer to crawl home with a little bit of small change left in his wallet this cannot in the world of logic and reason be referred to as a 'tax giveaway'.To try and pull this one is dishonest,and frankly an abuse of language on an Orwellian scale.

Free Speech May Not Survive The Present Assault

Someone has I think been sentenced to jail for making comments about the tragic missing girl April and I think we should be more concerned about this than we appear to be.No matter how obscene the comments may have been short of advocating and promoting abuse of children - people must be allowed free speech and not risk being carted off to jail for offending sensibilites or just being downright obnoxious and offensive.As I say I do not know the details of this case but it does appear to signal a dangerous trend of late of intolerance by the powers that be of people expressing unpleasant views.

The danger is that with all the justified heightened sense of outrage and despair over this tragic missing girl people will be reluctant to defend someone who makes offensive comments relating to it.This will be all the authorities require to smuggle in a law that will inevitably end up encompassing the expression of any unpopular views and set a dangerous precedent of intolerance of the free expression of opinions and beliefs.

Ex Post Facto Hysteria

Is it acceptable to judge past crimes ie those committed in some cases 50 years ago if just unearthed, by today's mores and standards?We try and do this but I cannot help but think it is wrong headed and rather ridiculous excercise.Historians started this trend with historical revisionism,re trying centuries old cases by current values and it cannot but be a redundant endeavour.I think this is exactly happening with the Saville Row.

We have to understand that the past truly is a foreign country and they do things differently there.Footballers usued to carve each other up -remember Chelsea in the early 70's and it was accepted as the norm but today no players would get away with such wanton and conscious brutality.

The same goes for attitudes towards sex.It was very liberal and permissive.Things were done and people looked the other way.It was wrong but it has to be seen in the context of when it was done and within the contemporary cultural norms and their implicit or explicit assumptions and not wrenched out of its time and revisited and judged by the light of today's politically correct orthodoxy.

This is not in any way is not to condemn Saville's actions but merely to set them in context and avoid this rather ridiculous smug and self indulgent moral posturing which too many in the media seem to have succumbed to.

Gaucho Marx Wins

Communism has its appeal to this day and populist politicians love to buy electorates with other people's money. Chavez has bought the Chav's vote and is the darling of that dwindling band of Leftist fellow travellers in the West,or should we say they are not dwindling but they just have fewer Marxist despots to fawn and truckle to.This morning the likes of George Galloway and Ken Livingstone will be delighted that Chavez has secured another term in Venezuela.The rest of the civilized world will probably just sigh in resignation at the continuing dogged credulity of the crackers Venezuelan electorate in perpetuating the dead and clapped out ideology of 20th century Communism.

You Could Be A Conspiracy Theorist If..

1.You have the capacity to believe 7 impossible things before breakfast

2.You hate Capitalism

3.You think you are part of an elite cognoscenti,(as opposed to all the 'deluded,uninformed 'sheeple').

4.You are paranoid

5.You are a sad loser

6.You've taken too many drugs

7.You have vague inert thwarted aspirations

8.You have an inflated sense of entitlement

9.You are regular devotees of the Max and Stacey show

10.You need cockamayne theories to fuel your rage

Stephanie Loves Karl

I only saw two episodes of the BBC Moneymasters series with Stephanie Flanders,one on Hayek the other on Marx.It was noticeable that she was enamoured of the latter and not the former, quelle surprise.The fawning tone was vomit inducing.So many on the left are Marxists under the skin, believing that his theory - which has been exploded by countless folk - holds the key to the money problem.

The worst aspect of this is that the whole programme was based on a false premise namely that it is the capitalist system that is in crisis.This is factually incorrect and fallacious.The mixed economy is in crisis.If capitalism in the undiluted laissez faire form ever existed it was eroded and etiolated from the late 19th century onwards incrementally to the present day where we have a full-blown mixed economy.

Once this is grasped -and it is a palpable fact that we do have a mixed economy, the whole assault on capitalism is exposed as a act of dishonest deception and cynical opportunism by the Left.In a real capitalist system there would be no bailing out of banks for a start.There would be no taxation and no welfare state etc etc.

No,this is in no way shape or form capitalism and it is the failure of the media and education system, both captured institutions by the Left,that has deliberately prevented people from grasping this.

Virgin On Sad

One does not have to be a conspiracy theorist to wonder if Labour deliberately made a mess of rail privatisation in order to discredit the latter but whether it was that or sheer incompetence it sure remains a mess and the latest action by the government in rexamining the tender process involving Branson and others shows how bad the State is in these matters.It is good Branson will get another opportunity to prevail in his bid but rather sad that he claimed he is not in it for the money and the profits will go towards research into renewable energy and charity.Apologising for the money motive is a bad example to budding entrepreneurs and it would be nice if Branson and co stopped doing it.

From Russia - With Love?

Noticed I get a lot of visitors from Russia.Either it is Putin keeping an eye on me or perhaps the Max Keiser incident a few weeks ago when I critiqued RT? A country that gave us Dostoyevsky,Lermonotov,Gogol,Tolstoy, Checkhov,Bulgakov, Nabokov, Solzhenitsyn,AYN RAND! has greatness written into its dna.Pity about the Communism lol. Lets hope it will not be back to the future and the old Soviet dog returns to its vomit.Watch this space.

Marxist Klingonism

Class warfare and envy served up by Mr Weird Red Ed militant at the Labour party conference.Now channeling Disraeliesque One Nation Communism.Comprehensive failure.

Jim'll Fix It

Of course I have no way of knowing whether Jimmy did what he is alleged to have done but if it turns out the BBC were sitting on known information and did nothing this will be a major breach on its part.Contrast this with the way Jonathon King was mercilessly hounded and demonised and you cannot help thinking that King was an easy target because he was known to have staunch Conservative views whereas Jimmy was the Establishment's darling with his politically correct social do gooding and was therfor considered akin to saintliness.

It was the astute Louis Theroux who first highlighted in one of his famed documentaries Saville's defensivness and secretiveness and there was always something rather dodgy about Saville with suggestions of a darker hinterland which now it seems is emerging into the light of day one year after his death and near deification.

Big Brother Has Ways Of Making You Save

How sad to see the great Theo Paphritis taking part in a government advertisement heralding its latest incursion into people's personal affairs with its enforced pension programme being rolled out from today.To be fair to him he did look a bit sheepish,as if someone was pointing a gun at his back whilst delivering his announcement.Maybe a mega rich entrepreneur like Theo will not suffer too much financially from this change but smaller businesses will be crippled by it to say nothing of the cost incurred in terms of administering the bureaucracy.

The country is on its knees and the government's response is to burden business with yet more Red tape regulation and to continue a very long trend of turning private enterprise into just another extension and conduit for intrusive and invasive government welfare programmes.
