CAMERON AT THE CROSSROADS.

The leader of the opposition is beginning to sound like a politician. This is his defining moment. His rhetoric is good. He has however to act like the boss. Can he now take command, by first of all, hauling his still fragmented party into an unstoppable force. To do that he must gauge the feeling of the electorate regarding the EU. The people must always come first if he aims to be a success.


Telling the public of the problems that we face is exactly the route to take. We have suggested here previously that, for example, for at least two years we must reduce the council tax. Making local authorities responsible for reducing the burden on their locality, with the locals to do the monitoring. To perform this we need to be in a position, not only to oust these representatives, but also to penalise them. Sequestration of pensions a possibility. In effect we have to make these people scared to take office unless their intentions are honourable.


One of the significant areas to be considered is the current 'Harwomen' Bill before the house, debating equality in the work place. There is absolutely nothing wrong with either sex getting the same reward for the same occupation. This, however, must come at the same price. Everyone must retire at the same time. Male, female, be it in both the Public or Private sector.

So David Cameron; this is your moment. Don't shirk it.



MOST OF ALL, DON'T BE SCARED OF LOSING THE NEXT ELECTION.

IT WILL BE A GOOD ONE TO LOSE.

SHOULD I BOTHER TODAY?

As a young man learning about the timber trade, I was fortunate to have as a colleague, a Liverpudlian, who, on leaving the services at the end of WWII, returned to his chosen career. He was one of the best timber men I knew, working with the timber licensing and timber control, which was instituted for some years following the cessation of hostilities. During that time, the staff annually had to complete paper work regarding the performance of a colleague. He set about this with gusto, pointing out that his subject took all his allotted sick leave, some thirteen weeks. This kind of critique was naturally frowned upon and he was admonished, being advised that this was not the kind of information that the authorities were looking for.


Well, from what I read in the press, that culture is still alive and kicking.

FUNDED BY TAXPAYER GB.

TAXPAYER GB TO PICK UP THE TAB.

As the hidden aspects of the Budget emerge, which include the long term tax burden on the public, the debt is always left for the majority to resolve. Anyone who has made shed loads of money very often knows how to retain it.

To look at one of the decisions from the Chancellor's speech, let us consider the car voucher scheme: Taxpayer GB will foot the bill for what could turn out to be mammoth sums, which will, in most cases, finish up in a foreign country. This also occurs in trying to revive the high street, by people using credit cards. What do we manufacture anymore? Certainly in the case of car sales, there will also be some middle men somewhere making money from them.

We have mentioned previously the housing market. Why give the impression that money is cheap when the underlying trend is the reverse? Eventually the market will determine that we face reality.

We cannot, therefore, run an economy based upon foreign car sales, imported clothing etc., and a false housing boom.







REMEMBER THE MANTRA: HAPPINESS IS AN INTEREST RATE OF 5%.

THE DARLING BUDS OF APRIL.

As Parliament yawned it's way through forecasts, promises and tax rises in the Budget, the only thing that will stick will be the tax hikes. The Chancellor missed the greatest opportunity of his so far dismal political career. At some stage in the very near future, Government has got to grasp the nettle of logic. Darling, however, fell for the Brown doctrine ' let others worry about that, as our game is to con the voters for as long as we can'. Such actions only compound the debt for a future generation.



This is a disgraceful legacy following the so called years of boom, which, like Manchester United, has left us in an horrendous financial state. The very suggestion that we are to go on spending at such an alarming rate really is 'beyond the pale' for taxpayer GB.






EPITAPH: AT LEAST THEY CALLED ME DARLING.

UNITED IS THE TEAM IN 'THE RED'.

Early in June of last year we wrote about the parlous financial state of English football, under the title of 'NEW LABOUR WITH A BALL'. Well, following what could be considered an extremely successful season on the pitch for Manchester United, financially it appears to be a disaster, having made a trading loss of well over £40 million. If we add that to the already calamitous debt, which is approaching 3/4 of a billion. How does such a concern survive? We suppose it has something to do with the manager, an arch socialist. What is interesting is, if they make these kind of losses when successful, imagine what it will be like when they ultimately hit a slump. As with most socialists, we can suppose they stick to the mantra of the 'devil take the hindmost'.







DAVID PLEAT ONCE SUGGESTED THAT ARSENE WENGER SHOULD BE CHANCELLOR.

A COMMENT FROM THE GRAVE.

Had Sir Thomas Beeching ever been asked what he thought of Damian McBride, I'm certain that the response would have been "I once recall putting my foot in some".

It is obvious that the situation inside the Labour Party is disturbing the decent element that remains true to the original tenets of their philosophy.




HOWEVER, THEY'LL CONTINUE TO WRIGGLE.

THE BOB QUICK, SLOW, SLOW, QUICK.

As the former head of our Anti -Terror Police disappears into the sunset, weighed down by his mammoth pension, courtesy of taxpayer GB, we can look back on the career of one backward police chief.



Let's take a brief look at his case file. Obviously keen to please the Home Secretary, he thought his duty was to Jacqui 'I'm a happy hippy' Smith. I wonder at what stage the police realise that they operate for the public, not the Government. Arresting an MP for doing his democratic duty, 'big downer'. Then acting rather like an undercover 'stoolie' by disclosing sensitive information en route to 'brown nose' government officials regarding his department's plans.



As our title suggests, he can probably look forward to entering Strictly Come Dancing, with his very own dance step.









PLEASE TELL ME THAT THIS IS A NIGHTMARE.

SEVEN McBRIDES FOR SEVEN McBROTHERS.

Seven would of course be a conservative estimate for dozens of advisers, not to mention the McMafia that make up much of the UK Government. Strange how the English are happy to be ruled by people who already have their own Parliament. It obviously speaks volumes for a backward electorate that is this England nation.

Sleaze is hardly new to this disgraceful outfit cavorting as a legitimate administration. We don't have to go back too far to remind ourselves of Campbell's excesses on behalf of that ringmaster of spin, Blair. What should always have been a concern, is that it is all paid for by taxpayer GB. We really do need to look more closely where our money is being spent; asking ourselves why governments need to spend our cash, by employing teams of liars.


Any political party should stand by it's performance, be it in government or opposition. Let us take the obvious example of the promised referendum on the disguised EU constitution. We must insist on a heavy penalty for reneging on such issues.

As far as the Tories are concerned, they must give Brown just enough oxygen to survive the Parliament's full term, bringing up the sleaze question every now and then, to keep the public aware.










Mc = MUCK.

SILENCE IS NOT GOLDEN.

Just when Her Majesty's opposition should be at it's most challenging, we get hardly a whimper. The situation in this country is dire. We need Westminster to be going at it 'hammer and tongs', pursuing the task each MP was voted in to perform.

If the Conservatives are not going to lay down a policy on cutting great swathes of local authority expenditure, by year on year reductions in the council tax. What is the point of a 'blue rinse' version of the same. If there is not to be a confrontation with the Unions now, then it will occur later. This decision must be confronted immediately. The nation cannot continue to lose jobs in the wealth-making sector, simultaneously being charged more to prop up non-jobs (in some cases) and pensions in the tax funded sector, to retire at sixty.

It would appear to the writer, that all an MP covets is that of the job, not the responsibilities that are associated with it. In actual fact, to win the next election on a standpoint of little or no policies is pointless. The Conservative Party, for long enough, pledged to match Labour's spending promises. How stupid can one be! If the public didn't spot what was happening before the last general election, they certainly know now.







OH FOR A PROPER TORY PARTY.

BLAIR GIVES POPE EAR-ACHE.

Interspersed with his mission to solve the problems of the Middle East, our 'good riddanced' PM finds time to lecture Pope Benedict XVI on the natural progression of homosexuality throughout the western world. This is of course abject nonsense since, as yet, same sex couples cannot procreate naturally. How is it that for somebody who in recent years turned to Roman Catholicism, only to challenge one of it's doctrines, still holds a position of importance? Doesn't this simpleton understand, that not only is he offending the Pontiff, he is also alienating Islam.














THE AMERICANS CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF THIS UNDER ACHIEVER.

G20 AND THE AFTERMATH OF LIES.

We can store all the mirrors and smoke making machines away until the so called 'world leaders' want to pull more wool over our eyes, hoping that we think that they are doing a good job. Well if they think that borrowing more money, which we and our descendants will have to pay back in the future, they can think again. Most of what was declared in the final communique had been announced previously. Our man Brown has a track record of double talking.



Let us assess what has happened in the last ten years regarding our own, the British economy. During that period, the former Chancellor kept repeating the word 'prudence', he is hardly worldly wise. Where as some of us could foresee the inevitable crash as far back as 2003. During that time he regularly repeated budget proposals to keep both the natives and the left wing press happy. During this period did we ever hear of plans that would help manufacturing bussinesses. Tax concessions etc. All the rhetoric was about giving taxpayer GB's money away, very often to wasteful causes. The NHS would on the surface sound like an excellent cause, but, we need to know how much of this goes to helping immigrants being treated here. Abortions! over 200,000 per year does not come cheaply. So the man has form with wasting our hard earned cash.



We don't expect the bunch of 'porkies' from the summit of the amusingly termed ' richest nations of the world, to do us much good sometime soon.









SO HOW MUCH DEBT QUALIFIES US FOR WEALTHY NATION STATUS?
