Unelected and Unwanted

That should be the message that our masters in Brussels should be thinking to themselves this evening as they self-congratulate themselves over electing themselves some new fucking leaders including one person who has got to where she is right now even though she has never in her political career EVER once been elected into office by those whom she is supposed to represent nowadays.

Democracy?  Fucking joke that.

What Is That Smell?

In amongst all the furore surrounding the Prime Minister’s somewhat poor attempt to apologise to the family of Guardsman Jamie Janes for the appallingly bad letter which was sent to them in the aftermath of their son’s death in Vietnam Afghanistan, there has been little apart from certain friendly commentators about the conduct of a certain rag’s part in the whole sordid affair.

But then it is the Scum at work, so no level of boundaries for that shite of a rag to get down to…

In Memoriam

At 11am this morning, the country will fall silent for two minutes to remember the fallen of past wars and conflicts.

Whether they died at in the mud covered horrors of Ypres or the sun-stroked heat of Helmand, we will remember them.

This Might Be Painful...

But for the troops in Afghanistan it is a very different sort of pain as they cope with losing another five comrades at the hands of a supposed lone assassin in Helmand province.

It does bring into question the very reason that we are over there, for whilst there are some deluded fanatics who want to take Afghanistan from the Middle Ages to the Stone Age - there is a whole generation who want and demand change.

Perhaps Twitter can do something, the protests in Iran are continuing thanks to it...

If You Have Nothing To Say…

Then say fuck all.  It will do you no good for your future prospects.

Seriously, in recent weeks we have seen various examples of people saying what they think and get round upon by their rivals, enemies, critics.

Whether it is Roberto Martinez, the newly installed Wigan manager who criticised Taggart’s boot boys for bowing down to the whisky soaked cunt every time they play the Corporation…

Or there is the Professor who was sacked for telling the truth about drugs…

There is no point in telling it like it is, because otherwise you make your own life that bit more difficult, that there is no point in doing so.

Make your life easy.

Say Fuck All..

Mind how you go…

Compare And Contrast

Evening,

Something that I have seen on PoliticalBetting this afternoon, showing the difference in leads that the Tories have got at the moment in comparison to the sort of lead that Labour had prior to their landslide in 1997.  And it makes for extremely bad reading for Chairman Brown.

The above is the poll that ICM/Guardian ran at the start of November 1996, some six months prior to the subsequent landslide that bought Blair into Downing Street.  Now although Labour had a commanding 13 point lead, look at where the Tories were back then.  Fuck, Chairman Brown would probably kill to be anywhere near the sort of figures that the Tories were on, at their Nadir. 

Which opens up any number of questions, primarily just how bad could the scale of defeat could be for Labour whenever they announce the date of the election, and what would be the consequences of such a dire result for Labour.

I get the feeling that just like 96/97 voters have made their minds up. They might not like the Tories but they just want the election to happen so they can put Brown in his place. It is said that it is not oppositions who win elections, it is governments who lose them.

To Lose One Is Bad, But To Lose Two…

…and the fallout from the sacking of Professor David Nutt for telling the unpalatable truth on drugs seems to be getting from bad to worse.

Afternoon all and news reaches me via Sky News that another eminent scientist has resigned from his government advisory role in protest of the above mentioned sacking.  Fears are growing within government circles of further resignations, or possibly an en masse decapitation scenario with every scientist on the Drug advisory Board resigning in support of Professor Nutt. 

From sacking someone for telling people how it is, it would be seen as summing up the ineptitude with the Labour Government right now.  But like all embattled governments, they will not admit that they, like all governments before them have been wrong in this regard.  And this resignation being forced upon Professor Nutt by someone who is supposed to represent the Progressive Left. 

The bottom line remains this:  Alcohol and cigarettes are far far more likely to harm and eventually kill its addicts, than drugs such as Cannabis and Ecstasy, but too many influential people in high places have got too much to lose by admitting that.

Corruption Kills.
