An encouraging sign on the British political landscape in the last decade or so, not in itself but in what it betokens, is the rise of small parties challenging the hegemony of the big 3 and snapping at their heels electorally.Parties such as UKIP,the Greens,BNP,even Respect all indicate that there is room in British politics for non mainstream parties to make their mark if they resonate with enough people who are sick of the status quo.The only political movement conspicuous by its total absence on the political landscape is a libertarian one.This is a mystery I have not delved into but it is a perplexing one.I have no idea what percentage of the population would respond positively to a libertarian party but it is sorely needed.
One would imagine that such a party in promising radical abolition of most taxes with an endgame of their total elimination would attract a lot of financial support from business big and small and even more from people who feel as they indeed must that the State has just got way too big and none of the other parties are even discussing this let alone proposing any reduction in the size of the behemoth state.I have never discussed this with any libertarians as I know of none but again I wonder and am baffled at their silence and non involvement in the political process.

How To Defeat And Destroy Izlam
Countries across the world have succumbed to the threat and terrorism of Izlam.Wherever it goes it strikes terror into the hearts of weak psychotic nations who have been gulled into believing that tolerance of evil is good.With the support of liberals Izlam has infiltrated into every country across the globe and like a malevolent toxic virus it has overcome all natural resistance to its virulent strain of death.People have doubted their own reason and sanity and have allowed themselves to be intimidated by the evil of Izlam and its minatory threats against them.
The unholy aliance of liberals with Izlam has swept all before it.Countries with a former impeccable record of adherence to liberal values have fallen like dominoes before the onslaught of Izlamic intimidation and abandoned those values for censorship,fear and silence.In the UK citizens can be arrested for even criticizing the evil death cult of Izlam.Communism and Socialism once considered defunct ideologies have joined forces with Izlam to destroy all human values and set people up for totalitarian rule.When Izlam triumphs of course its liberal useful idiots will be put to the sword.
The only way to defeat Izlam is to understand its power which is the power of intimidation.Not responding to the pressure to submit and conform,standing unmoved at the insanity of Izlam and its threats will destroy the power it has over its victims.Once the psychopatholgy of Izlam is exposed it will be very easy to deal with it.This may or may not involve additional action including the nuclear option.Its time to start terrorising the terrorists.

Izlam's Useful Idiots
The Left has got a long inglorious history of sympathising with totalitarian regimes most notably the Soviet Union and for best part of the last century it was the poster boy of every liberal wet dream.The Labour party had links with the Soviets,barely ever criticised it,Left wing intellectuals drooled over it,both Shaw and Wells were hugely impressed with the Socialist experiment and apart from the sole and notable exception of Malcolm Muggerdige of all people writing in the Manchester Guardian in the 1930's after a trip to the Socialist paradise of Russia and exposing the lies and Potemkin village grand deception, the Left almost to a man and woman saw the Soviet Union as the living embodiment of the Socialist utopia.
Now of course in a desperate and cynical act of hysterical revisionism you can hardly find a single fellow traveller who would admit to ever being enamoured with the USSR.To listen to them they were all violently opposed to the whole thing from the start.Anyway when 1989 rolled round and the Berlin Wall fell and crumbled and with it the Soviet dream the Left were bereft and did not know what to do with themselves.It was pretty much all over for them by then and the 90's saw the election of Blair and with it the consolidation of centrist policies and the ditching of clause 4 and the Left were routed and retreated into a sulking sullen silence.
It seemed like history had dealt the Left a final blow from which it would never recover.Then came 9\11 and they could hardly believe their luck or contain themselves.Before the dust had even settled on what were the twin towers it was gloating in public,America had brought it upon itself,had got a bloody good hiding.Historians,philosophers pundits all lined up to critique the US and soon were to join forces in the huge anti war demonstrations and so began the Blair demonisation and of course, the Left's pro Izlam coalition was born.The Left useful idiots, phoenix-like had risen from the ashes of history and had found another totalitartian monster to grovel to to.

Royal's Bare faced Cheek
The latest monarchy Kate furore does not show the institution in a good light.When the royals stop funding their lavish lifestyle with tax payers money they can have back their privacy.Until then the public owns their ass,and all points northwards.
Rabid Izlam:Elephant,Room
Still the pathological denial persists.It's just a few hotheads who in no way represent true Izlam.Yeah right.Everytime another astrocity occurs in the Middle East the same old line is intoned mantra fashion and no one believes it.There is no more a moderate Izlam than there is a moderate Nazism.Obama and Hillary Clinton come from a long line of masochist liberals who refuse to confront the reality of what Izlam is and represents - total human barbarisation.
Izlam is the ne plus ultra of nihilism,the desire for the destruction of all values and a return to the dark ages where brute emotion and blind worship of a supernatural entitity is demanded of sheep like people on pain of death at refusal.It was headed if we are to believe the records by an epileptic murdering paedophile.Its adherents betray all the characteristics of a cult,slavish obediance,mindless conformity and a willingness to sacrifice their lives to defend their mad cultic beliefs.
Wherever Izlam goes,death, carnage and genocide is never far behind.The rabid followers take their cue from the epileptic leader who had a penchant for little girls.Contrast this with the moral virtue of a Christ and we see the yawning chasm between Izlam and Chritianity although I hold no allegiance to any religion these days.
Ignorance and a complete denial of individual rights characterises Izlam.Where Western values teach dialogue and debate Izlam still knows recourse only to the edge of a sword.It has had no reformation,it is unreconstructed and poses the greatest threat to civilization.Until we recognize these facts and stop rationalising the barbaric evil of Izlam we will only encourage further atrocities.
The Arab Spring Time for Hitler should wake us all up to the folly of aiding any arabic country in the deluded belief that they want secular liberal values just like us.This weeks event in Libya should surely put pay to that liberal delusion.

'Christianity Began As A Cult' (BBC)
Could this possibly be true -that Christianity began as a cult? It was asserted confidently as fact on a BBC history programme about Britain.Say for a moment it was true then the only conclusion could possibly be that it still is a cult.Distance in time does not change the essential nature and origin of things ie longevity does not bestow upon stupid ideas any moral or intellectual legitimacy.A fallacy uttered a thousand years ago is still a fallacy today.The number of adherents a particular idea or philosophy attracts does not lend it any more validity either.Everyone used to believe the world was flat and those who said otherwise were considered heretics and were persecuted but they just turned out to be correct.(Incidentally the ones doing most of the the persecuting were religious.)So I think it is safe to conclude that yes,a) Chritianity did begin as a cult and b) it still is.Amen.
Time, distance,the hypnotic suggestion and power of authority,tradition and social conformity have all conspired to intimidate folk into believing something that were it appearing for the first time today would be summarily dismissed as the worst sort of cultic hysteria and supernatural doggerel and charlatanism promulgated by fraudsters and mountebanks playing on the credulity of the sperstitious masses - much in the same way that psychics ,tarot card readers,chanellers and astrologers do to this very day.

Boris The Big Government Tory
Borris is boasting about the £3 bilion plus he stole from the taxpayers to fund the Olympic games claiming it was money well spent and displaying the kind of cavalier attitude to State theft you would normally only expect from some potentate in a third world Marxist State in South America.This is the great electoral prospect many desperate frustrated and delluded Tories appear to be banking their hopes on in a post Cameron world which apparently for them cannot come a day too soon.
Crackerbarrel airport schemes,rumoured standing in a bi election in Richmond to replace the mad Green crazed Zac Goldsmith,it appears many tories would prefer Boris - cult of personality loose canon- Johnson to someone who displays principles and actually believes in something.
As if in harmony with Borris a union boss was crowing about how the olympic games demonstrated how the State could deliver even better than the market omitting to mention how his union had threatend to ruin the games if his mafia mates in the public transport system weren't bunged piles of money to avert a strike.If you steal money from someone and put on a very large party for all the down and outs you can find and then claim that it was all a huge success and demonstrated how theft was a good thing most people would think you were insane but this is in effect what both Borris and the Union bosses are arguing.Perhaps they both calculate correctly that the public have been too bedazzled by the spectacle to realise that they will have to pick up the tab for the bread and circuses of the last month.

Saint Peter Hitchens Is Wrong On Drugs
Much as I admire him for being a stout and sturdy defender of real Conservatism I have to say on the drugs issue I believe Mr Hitchens could not be more wrong.I would have thought that for even an ex Marxist like him the degree of State intervention required to police what substances people ingest would have given him pause but apparently not.Perhaps when one discovers that the admirable Peter also favours renationalisation of the railways (and perhaps the post office as well?)it is not so inconsistent after all.
It is noticeable that both sides of the political aisle have their own pet issues and areas where they favour State interventionism and neither are known for any consistency here.Tories tend to be broadly speaking non interventionist in economic areas but favour meddling in personal behaviour matters whereas the Left are more liberal in the latter but urge meddling in economic areas.Only libertarians are totally intellectually consistent and of course they are always conspicuous by their absence in UK politcs.
The argument for drug liberalisation has to be made on the individual rights issue and not the ridiculous one of being a way of reducing crime.You could argue on those grounds that burglary should be de-criminalised! It is the anti Big Brother argument that should prevail and which policy has led to the ridiculous failed and doomed prohibitionist approach that has had such comprehensively dismal results with historical parallels that only the ignorant can be unaware of.

Conservatism: No Such Thing As Individualism!
In the Deep End section of Conhome is an article repudiating Conservative support of individualism and it is a must read for all those who mistakenly hold that Conservatism and individualism are synonymous or in any way compatible.Of course being a Conservative attempt at 'philosophy' it serves up the usual mush of confused ideas in an almost deliberate attempt to obfuscate and confound the issue but if you are expert as I have become in decoding Conservative-speak the implications of said article are clear enough.Once individualism is obliquely critiqued in this fashion the way lies open for Conservatives to justify State intervention and big government solutions be it in taxation,regulation and general all round State meddling.Belittling and downgrading the role of individualism in the context of freedom cannot but have this corollary.
This is one more floating of trial balloons for Conservatism in its steady inexorable drift to the Left and should surely serve as a warning and reminder to any prospective Conservative voters that a vote for this party is a vote for more State,more controls and more government.

Paralympics Unintended Legacy
Proud as I am that I have not watched a single olympics event or paralympic either because I am opposed to State tax funded sport I have to say that the paras have served to expose the myth of disability which should have profound implications for the whole notion of welfare disability programmes.Now that it has been demonstrated so graphically just what disabled people can achieve the very argument that they should be patronised with welfare has been blown out of the water.They are just as much capable of doing some sort of job as able bodied people.
This not inconsiderable inference is what I and I hope the powers that be will take away from the events of the last few weeks which otherwise have induced in me at least ennui and irritation in equal measure at all the hype that has surrounded them.

Freedom Illusion?
Someone in conversation asserted confidently that no one is really free and I kind of got what they meant but thinking about it more it is nothing but a commonplace for every creature in obeying the requirements of its nature is constricted and circumscribed thereby.A human being cannot jump off a building and fly.A cat cannot swim underwater in the ocean,a dog cannot rebel against its dog nature and wile away its days surfing the internet etc.
All creatures are delimited in their behaviour by their nature and their requirements for survival through certain self sustaining actions.There is no absolute freedom as such,only within certain prescribed parameters. The prescription is dictated by reality.
The person in question was probably bewailing their human circumstances specifically in the need to work and earn a living.Yes it is true human beings have to trade and exchange goods and services.Right from the first humans living in caves,hunting and foraging etc certain actions were needed to sustain existence and so it is today in modern human societies.To bemoan the lack of freedom to do whatever you want in defiance of the requirements of your existence is to turn away from reality and indulge in wishfull thinking denial.
Of course some people have relatively more freedom than others.A Richard Branson versus someone working in Macdonalds for instance.We don't all come from privileged backgrounds, we have to make the best of our circumstances.So whatever freedom we can exert within those limits we are essentially free moral agents in the choice of actions we take to sustain our existence and pursue values compatible with our nature for the enjoyment and fulfilment of goals.
The only freedom we do not possess is the freedom from reality.If we choose to go against our nature we end up as a bum on welfare having others do for us what we have abdicated responsbility to do for ourselves.

Rabid Obummer Demagoguery
Obama represents the phenomena of the mountebank in its most advanced form and it is exceedingly depressing that according to polls at least half the American electorate would like to see him remain in the White house.Public 'education' has certainly done its job on them.He was at his usual and customary sociopathic Elmer Gantry tricks at the Democratic convention yesterday,seeking to promote his toxic and insidous un American message of envy and division along Marxist lines, manipulating base instincts and deploying his acquired sociopathic tools of plausibility and dissimulation to that end.
For all his many faults at least Clinton did not bankrupt the country in pursuit of his ideological goals.This president has no such qualms and only a return to sanity by the electorate in Novemeber with a swing to Romney will assure that he does not succeed.

Melissa Benn Is Madder Than Tony
Thankfully I have gone all this time without knowing of the existence of Melissa Benn daughter - spawn of Satan Tony.Yesterday that all changed when she appeared on a 'debate' on radio 4 with John Humphries about State education versus free market education.Needless to say the panel was stacked in favour of the State with one token free marketer in the form of the redoubtable James Tooley.He was contstantly talked over by the obnoxious Melissa Benn,ridiculed and generally baracked by her each time he attempted to get a word in edgeways.
No matter how appalling Tony Benn is with his Marxist ideology he certainly has more manners than his vile offspring who it turns out had a Marxist 'education' in a State school the name of which escapes me now in the 1960s which was characterised at the time as 'a Socialist Eton', disgracefully State funded.This is what Melissa would like for the whole country,its children sent off to Socialist brainwashing camps to be indoctrinated into the right way of thinking.The arrogance and the delusion of this evil woman had me reaching for the sick bag.
Thank God this government is attempting to free education from the malign death grip of the Marxised unions and councils and liberate them from State Sovietisation and the social engineers of human souls masquerading as teachers.For too long the likes of Melissa Benn have been infiltrating the educational establishment spreading their evil toxic ideologies and at last they are feeling the fresh bracing wind of competition and enterprise.No wonder they don't like it as the rude obnoxious behaviour of Melissa Benn last evening clearly demonstrated.

The Seductive Allure Of Conspiracy Theories
Re my last post and the furore it sparked on the Keiser site it has got me thinking about why conspiracy theories are so compelling to so many and I think in part it has got something to do with the decline of organised religion.People seem to be hard wired in their need for simple explanations that will resolve the complexities of life and they also require the Armageddon factor, an obvious throwback to religion.The end is nigh - and the banksters are to blame!It gives them a focus for their rage.
Conspiracy theories tend to attrtact those unhappy with their lot in life.Now they have someone to blame,a focal point for their hitherto unfocused rage.There appears to be a need for a hate figure.This is the theme of Orwell's 1984 and the State recognising this gives them four minutes of hate where they can rail and vent against the hated figure on the screen.
Once people have been captured by these false salvation artists they will go to any lengths to defend their false belief and will not take kindly to anyone who exposes the ridicuous figure behind the curtain pulling their strings whether it be an Icke, Keiser or whoever
(Footnote.I normally get 25 visitors to this obscure site.In the last 24 hours or less I have got One Thousand,yes,1000!It was not my intention but can't pretend am not pleased!)

Max Keiser Syndrome
Having watched the clowning of Max Keiser on RT over the years I have come to the conclusion that his ilk of alarmist conspiracy theorist declinists are the modern equivalent of the soothsayers and withcdoctors of medieval times with their end is nigh doomsday scenarios.Keiser lends his rantings a patina of pseudo intellectuality by invoking his past experience on Wall St but this is a mere cover for his virulent anti Americanism and anti Capitalism although he claims that he is for pure Capitalism but his constant ad hominem abuse of Ayn Rand clearly belies this.
As RT is a propaganda vehicle for Putin's Russia it is hardly surprising that the latter is the elephant in the room that never gets mentioned or critiqued by Keiser proving that he is every bit as much in the pockets of vested interests as the people he lambastes.With his sidekick Stacey Herbert they vye with one another to see who can excel in florid rhetoric and absurdist caricature of the financial world but underneath the bombastic hyperbole is the same left thinking that charcterises most conspiracy theorist purveyors.

Politicians And God
People often accuse doctors of playing God but they are the height of modesty compared with politicians especially those on the Left who want to control every human action from 'the cradle to grave' and see it as an affront and an act of heresy if anyone demurs and questions their divine right of intervention into the minutae of people's everyday life.
Most Conservatives it has to be owned are not much better and go native as soon as they get into office and take to empire building with little compunction.They also do not like criticism as I have found to my cost over at Conservativehome website brainchild of Tim Montgomerrie as I have now be banned from the comment section due to the fact that I critiqued the party from a libertarian perspective.It seems they are more comfortable with the Lefties who infest the comments than me which I suppose should be taken as a compliment.It will free me up to concentrate on political activism and my foredoomed failure to save Conservatives from themselves will hopefully serve as a lesson not to waste time on lost causes in future.

Woman's Hour Pisses Me Off
Here is how it works when it comes to any 'discussion' about Ayn Rand in the mainstream media.The host invites two people on who are hostile to Rand and gives them free rein to vent and excoriate by slur distortion,defamation and disinformation.Not one but two 'experts' are wheeled on to do the hatchet job.
You might suppose that at least on a public service broadcaster such as the BBC that some attempt might be made to have one of the guests in question be sympathetic to Rand and at least put her arguments forth honestly for the sake of balance which the BBC is always at pains to assure us it strives for.But no,in a blatant non balanced fashion Ayn Rand bashing is what we were treated to on last weeks' excerable Womans Hour on radio four.
It is standard practice as I have mentioned before when it comes to Rand but really it applies across the board no matter what the subject under discussion is.The BBC has got away with this egregious tendentiousness for half a century and the only solution would be the one Rand herself would advocate namely the removal of the TV licence from the BBC so that it can be free to proeselytize its 20th century collectivist credo without benefit of tax payer support.

How To Get People To Love Politicians
To change the near universal hatred and contempt the public has towards politicians into something approaching love or at least non hate is very simple.People hate politicians because they are paid for out of the public purse ie through taxation.If this were not the case and politicians had to rely on individuals and groups financing them through voluntary contributions all the anger felt towards politicians would melt like snow in the summer sun.
It is obscene and profoundly undemocratic and a violation of individual rights that anyone should have to finance a politician who has opposite views to them.This works both ways of course.Just as I resent having to finance George Galloway a dyed in the wool Lefty would resent having to finance Cameron and his Tory cadres.My solution obviates this problem.Yes unions can support Labour if they choose but the caveat being that the legal immunity they got from Labour 100 years ago regarding immunity from striking would have to be repealed.If someone goes on strike that is a breach of contract and the employer should have the right to sack them immediately.
The answer to the argument that no one would want to be a politician if they were not paid out of the public purse is very simple. In a Capitalist system there would be very little for politicians to do and only a small percentage of the present commons intake would be required.Power lusters would have no scope for advancement as they would have very little to offer their prospective electorate in terms of bribes and welfare bounty and they would have to find expression for their psychopathic impulses elsewhere,perhaps in the criminal underworld which would be their natural milieu.
This of course also obtains re big business support for Conservatives.As there would be no meddling in business under a true Capitalist system businesses would not have to pay Conservatives what is effectively protection money to defend their interests from punitive taxation and bureaucratic Red tape.The whole lobby system would cease to exist and the grubby compromising backroom deals between politicians,unions and big business would be but a dark and distant memory.

This of course also obtains re big business support for Conservatives.As there would be no meddling in business under a true Capitalist system businesses would not have to pay Conservatives what is effectively protection money to defend their interests from punitive taxation and bureaucratic Red tape.The whole lobby system would cease to exist and the grubby compromising backroom deals between politicians,unions and big business would be but a dark and distant memory.

Towards The Taxless State
It's time to think outside the ballot box.Tax serfs of the world need to unite for they have nothing to lose but their chains.Freedom and liberty are rights not to be voted away by the ignorant horde.The insanity of crowds has ruled long enough.The chains of guilt wrought by the toxic canard of altruism will be broken and man will stand erect on earth unbowed by unearned guilt.
Neither 20th century liberalism or discredited conservatism will stand in the path of freedom with their lies and half truths and mixed economy premises.Their preachments have led us to the maw of hell and as we peak over the abyss their nostrums will hold no sway, but will merely reverberate with a hollow echo signifying nothing.Their day has truly gone.
The shiboleths of democracy will no longer enthrall,the siren call of a socialised existence will lie exposed as the power lust of megalomaniacs and the nightmare of a dystopia without end.The liberal democratic illusion will be shattered,scales will fall from eyes,charlatans will stand naked, their game exposed, claims scorned, tricks unmasked.

1%, Persecuted Minority
Minorities are regarded with mystical awe and respect in Western Democracies -unless the minority in question is the 1% business community that provides half the total taxation take.This minority is persecuted mercilessly on a daily basis and has opprobrium dumped on it with ritualistic zeal by practically everyone
It is open season on the wealth producers and the only wonder is why they put up with it.Why don't they just shrug or at least organise and start a union and go on strike or something?Beats me.All we ever get from the producers movers and shakers is silence or an apologetic defence of their right to exist.They need some cojones.
They of course have been silenced by the thing I alluded to in the post below -the insdious toxic debilitating guilt creating power of altruism to hypnotise and subjugate all before it.Unless we can break the hypnotic power of altruism to paralyse all resistance and expose it for the self serving lie it is the wealth producers will continue to be persecuted and degraded and conmen of social parasitism will continue to enslave the productive through the tools of guilt and Socialist rhetoric.
