The Madhouse Update

“The MP who will lead the attack on Rebekah Brooks and Rupert and James Murdoch this week over their roles in the phone-hacking scandal has close links with the media empire, it is revealed today.

John Whittingdale, the Conservative chairman of the Culture, Media and Sport committee, admitted he was an old friend of Mr Murdoch's close aide, Les Hinton, and had been for dinner with Ms Brooks.

The Independent on Sunday has also learnt that Mr Murdoch's daughter Elisabeth, seen as the future saviour of the company, has also met Mr Whittingdale a number of times. Among her 386 "friends" on Facebook, the only MP she lists is Mr Whittingdale. He is also the only MP among 93 Facebook "friends" of Mr Hinton.”

The Independent – 17 July 2011.

“Since we are to have a Judicial Inquiry into the wicked Press, shouldn’t we also have one into wicked politicians? Journalists can be nasty, and newspapers beastly, BUT THEIR MISDEEDS ARE AS NOTHING SET BESIDE THOSE OF GOVERNMENTS. Governments also hack into phones, poke their noses into our personal affairs and misuse the information they obtain. Governments break up families in secret and hold increasing numbers of trials in secret, too. Governments sell information about us to outsiders. The state records our emails, spies on our rubbish bins and uses airport X-ray machines to peer sneakily at our naked bodies. It knows what we earn and where we live and monitors our medical records. It takes an increasingly creepy interest in what we think and say.

No doubt politicians claim that these actions are justified. But who is to know, especially in a country with a weakened Press? However, these are minor crimes when set beside the other things governments do. NEWSPAPERS DON’T BOMB BELGRADE OR BAGHDAD OR TRIPOLI, OR INVADE AFGHANISTAN AND THEN FORGET WHY THEY DID IT. NEWSPAPERS DON’T WATERBOARD PEOPLE, OR BUNDLE THEM OFF TO CLANDESTINE PRISONS. NEWSPAPERS DON’T RELEASE HUNDREDS OF CONVICTED TERRORISTS ON TO THE STREETS NOR THOUSANDS OF CONVICTED ORDINARY CRIMINALS EITHER. NEWSPAPERS DON’T OPEN OUR FRONTIERS TO HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF UNCHECKED MIGRANTS.

But you may – rightly – say: What about the newspapers that have helped governments do some or all of these things?… The Murdoch Press slobbered for years at the feet of the Blair government. They had a price. THE MURDOCH EMPIRE WANTED BRITAIN TO GO TO WAR, IN IRAQ AND AFGHANISTAN. THE GROTESQUE SCREECHING OF LIES THAT STAMPEDED US INTO THESE WARS WAS A JOINT OPERATION BETWEEN NEWS INTERNATIONAL AND THE DARK HEART OF ALASTAIR CAMPBELL’S DOWNING STREET.

Then, when New Labour sagged, the same deal was on offer to anyone else cynical enough to accept it. I have never forgotten October 2, 2009, when David Cameron paid his first instalment to Rupert Murdoch, in return for his papers’ support in the coming Election. HE PROMISED A CLOSER ENGAGEMENT IN AFGHANISTAN –

‘IF I’M PRIME MINISTER, WHITEHALL WILL GO TO WAR FROM MINUTE ONE, HOUR ONE, DAY ONE THAT I WALK THROUGH THE DOOR OF DOWNING STREET.’

He made other promises, driven by public opinion. But NOBODY, IN SEPTEMBER 2009, WANTED US TO GET DEEPER INTO AFGHANISTAN. NOBODY, THAT IS, EXCEPT MR MURDOCH.
In short, Mr CAMERON WAS QUITE READY (AS HE HAS SINCE PROVED) TO SEND PEOPLE TO THEIR DEATHS IN HELMAND AND TO ALLOW MANY MORE TO BE MAIMED FOR LIFE, TO SECURE THE SUPPORT OF THE SUN DURING THE ELECTION CAMPAIGN. This was one pledge he unequivocally kept.

From that moment, I decided that Mr CAMERON WAS PERSONALLY DISGUSTING AS WELL AS POLITICALLY WRETCHED. I think paying for office with the blood and limbs of other people is quite a lot worse than hacking into Milly Dowler’s phone, even if it isn’t illegal.”

Peter Hitchens - The Daily Mail – 17 July 2011.


Simon Wolfson, the 37th most important Conservative according to The Daily Telegraph, was created Baron Wolfson of Aspley Guise at David Cameron’s behest.
His father, David Wolfson, was Margaret Thatcher’s Chief of Staff from 1979 until 1985. She had him knighted in 1984 and he was raised to the peerage in 1991 becoming Baron Wolfson of Sunningdale.

On 17 July 2011, The Telegraph quoted Simon Wolfson thus:

“This crazy political correctness has to end. It is time for a rebellion as it's making us all deeply racist. Please, lets stop filling in diversity forms. They are turning us all into racists. That's why I am launching a campaign to encourage us all to tick the 'mixed other' or 'black' boxes. After all, AREN'T WE ALL BLACK OR MIXED?…

WHAT THIS COUNTRY NEEDS IS MORE IMMIGRATION, NOT LESS… We need more roads like China where cities like Shanghai have 10-lane highways… Go to Bangladesh and you see they are building new roads, filling the holes and banning the rickshaws. Here in London, we are doing the exact opposite. It's time politicians provided what we want."

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/8642271/Next-boss-Simon-Wolfson-Diversity-moves-are-turning-us-into-racists.html

Political correctness bred mass immigration, pal. You can’t have it both ways. Oh, I was forgetting, you’re Jewish. You can have it both ways, can’t you?
How politically incorrect of me to mention the fact that an elite Jew wants more immigration. Which happens to be the exact opposite of “what we want”.

Oh, and we don’t want any of Wolfson’s 10-lane Chinese highways in our country either. China is massive, we are tiny in comparison. countryside. Concreting over England’s green and pleasant land is not WHAT WE WANT, pal!

Historically the Jews have always preferred the city to the countryside. There’s me being politically incorrect again. Spilling the beans on the Hebrews’ antipathy to the pastoral idyll. Still, as long as I’ve got baron Wolfson on my side I should be OK.

Shouldn’t I?

PS. David Wolfson and Keith Joseph were Margaret Thatcher’s top advisors before she became Prime Minister and for some years afterwards. Both of them were Jewish.
PPS. You may describe youself and your fellow Jews as "black or mixed" to your heart's content, David, but the native Briton is white! I'm white! You call me "black or mixed" to my face and I'll knock your Baronial block off!


“The scale of private links between David Cameron and News International was exposed for the first time last night, with THE PRIME MINISTER SHOWN TO HAVE MET RUPERT MURDOCH'S EXECUTIVES ON NO FEWER THAN 26 OCCASIONS IN JUST OVER A YEAR SINCE HE ENTERED DOWNING STREET.

REBEKAH BROOKS, WHO RESIGNED YESTERDAY AS CHIEF EXECUTIVE OF MR MURDOCH'S WAPPING TITLES OVER THE ESCALATING SCANDAL, IS THE ONLY PERSON MR CAMERON HAS INVITED TWICE TO CHEQUERS, A PRIVILEGE NOT EXTENDED EVEN TO THE MOST SENIOR MEMBERS OF HIS CABINET. James Murdoch, News Corp's chairmanin Europe and the man responsible for pushing through the BSkyB bid, was a guest at the Prime Minister's official country residence eight months ago. And THE FORMER NOTW EDITOR ANDY COULSON – WHO WAS ARRESTED THIS WEEK IN CONNECTION WITH POLICE CORRUPTION AND PHONE HACKING – WAS INVITED BY MR CAMERON TO SPEND A PRIVATE WEEKEND AT CHEQUERS AS RECENTLY AS MARCH…

A spokeswoman for the Prime Minister, when asked about the Chequers hospitality extended to Mr Coulson, said: ‘The invitation was to thank him for all his work – it was in the capacity of a friend. HE IS A FRIEND, HE REMAINS A FRIEND’…
The document reveals that SINCE MAY 2011 MR CAMERON HAD 15 PRIVATE MEETINGS WITH NEWS INTERNATIONAL EXECUTIVES AND EDITORS. In addition HE ATTENDED THREE PARTIES HELD BY NEWS INTERNATIONAL IN THE PAST 14 MONTHS AND ATTENDED FIVE EVENTS ORGANISED BY THE COMPANY. In contrast he met executives from Associated Newspapers, which owns the Daily Mail, only four times, Guardian Newspapers twice, and The Independent and Standard three times. One of those meetings was with the proprietor of The Independent, Evgeny Lebedev.

Nick Clegg also released a list of his meetings with newspaper proprietors and editors last night. IT SHOWED HE HAD MET MR LEBEDEV FOUR TIMES SINCE LAST MAY. AT NEWS INTERNATIONAL, MR CLEGG MET MS BROOKS TWICE AND MR MURDOCH ONCE.”

“A LABOUR WHIP UNLEASHED A FOUR-LETTER TIRADE AT A BLIND MAN FOR GETTING IN HER WAY during a fraught exchange in the Houses of Parliament. Lyn Brown, the burly MP for West Ham, barged into the back of Talksport political editor Sean Dilley, and his golden retriever guide dog, as he was walking in a corridor towards Portcullis House.
Witnesses were shocked to see a clearly stressed Miss Brown BULLDOZE INTO THE BACK OF MR DILLEY BEFORE OVERTAKING HIM, SHOUTING: 'FOR ****'S SAKE, MOVE OUT OF MY f****** WAY.'

The journalist asked her to be more careful as he did not want to crash into his guide dog, Chip. Miss Brown then sniped back: 'YOU ARE SUCH A RUDE ******* MAN, YOU JUST WALKED RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME.'

One source said a frustrated Mr Dilley then replied: 'I'm blind, you stupid woman.' He then demanded to know Miss Brown's name, as he could not see who had bumped into him, but Miss Brown replied: 'I AM NOT GIVING IT TO YOU, **** OFF’.”

“An investigation into Britain's care homes has uncovered heartbreaking tales of neglect and mistreatment.

“BURGLARIES ROSE BY 14 PER CENT LAST YEAR to a seven-year high, figures revealed. It means MORE THAN ONE HOUSE BREAK-IN OCCURS EVERY MINUTE OF THE DAY IN ENGLAND AND WALES.

The British Crime Survey – which is calculated from interviews with more than 40,000 people – showed a total of 745,000 HOMES WERE TARGETED IN 2010/11. This is a rise of 94,000 from a year earlier and the highest total since 2004. That means around ONE FAMILY IN EVERY 40 WAS TARGETED BY BURGLARS IN THE PAST 12 MONTHS.”

“Les Hinton, the head of News Corp's flagship American newspaper and a trusted, long-serving executive, resigned on Friday over his role in the phone-hacking scandal that has rocked Rupert Murdoch's global media company. He became the first high profile casualty of the controversy in the United States, where he had been chief executive of the Wall Street Journal and Dow Jones, a financial news service, since Mr Murdoch's takeover in late 2007.

In his resignation letter, Mr Hinton, 67, apologised for the ‘pain caused to innocent people’ by repeated illegal intrusions by News of the World reporters and private detectives.”

“An MI6 officer has accused Alastair Campbell of behaving like ‘AN UNGUIDED MISSILE’ DURING THE CREATION OF TONY BLAIR’S DODGY DOSSIER before the Iraq War.
The Secret Intelligence Service official delivered his withering assessment of the ex-prime minister’s former communications chief during secret testimony to the Chilcot Inquiry into the war.

The spy, referred to as SIS2, was asked to describe the relationship MI6 had with Downing Street during the preparation of the dossier, which concluded that Saddam Hussein could fire chemical warheads within 45 minutes. He replied:

‘We did have regular links with Alastair Campbell… WE FOUND [HIM], I THINK, AN ENTHUSIASTIC INDIVIDUAL, BUT ALSO SOMEWHAT OF AN UNGUIDED MISSILE. FROM THE OUTSET WE HAD CONCERNS. HE ALSO, I THINK, SUFFERED FROM HIS PROPENSITY TO HAVE RUSHES OF BLOOD TO THE HEAD and pass various stories and information to journalists without appropriate prior consultation.’“

“When it comes to British politics he [Roger Daltrey] has a lot to say. A lifelong Labour voter, HE’S DISGUSTED BY THE LAST GOVERNMENT. ‘I WAS APPALLED AT WHAT LABOUR DID TO THE WORKING CLASS — MASS IMMIGRATION, WHERE PEOPLE WERE ALLOWED TO COME HERE AND UNDERCUT OUR WORKING CLASS,’ says Roger.

‘It’s fine to say everybody can come into your country, but everybody should work towards a standard of living expected by people who live here. Not come here, live 20 to a room, pay no tax, send money home and undercut every builder in London. THEY SLAUGHTERED THE WORKING CLASS IN THIS COUNTRY. I HATE THEM FOR IT BECAUSE IT IS ALWAYS THE LITTLE MAN WHO IS HURT BADLY. IT’S TERRIBLE. It frustrates me.
WE HAVE GOT TO STOP PANDERING TO PEOPLE because we won’t be able to afford to keep this going. At the very least, it should be a pre-requisite that people have to learn English.

What really made me angry about that period is… YOU HAVE TO MAKE ALLOWANCES FOR THE STRAIN THAT IS GOING TO PUT ON YOUR SOCIAL SERVICES AND THEY MADE NONE. Talk about sticking their head up their a***. The arrogance, the audacity. THEY DON’T REALISE HOW HARD THE AVERAGE MAN HAS TO WORK to get that and to pay those taxes.’
The Tories should not expect Roger to turn to them, however. ‘I’ve become very cynical,’ he says. ‘I DON’T SEE ANYBODY WITH A PAIR OF BALLS OUT OF THE WHOLE BUNCH. THEY ARE SO SPINELESS’.”

“THE TRANSFORMATION OF BRITAIN THROUGH MASS IMMIGRATION CONTINUES TO GATHER PACE. NEVER IN HISTORY HAS OUR COUNTRY BEEN THROUGH A SOCIAL REVOLUTION LIKE THIS ONE. The extent of the upheaval was emphasised this week by new statistics which show that more migrants permanently settle in Britain than in any other European nation.
According to the Organisation for Economic Co-Operation and Development, NO FEWER THAN 397,000 FOREIGNERS DECIDED TO LIVE HERE IN 2009, AN INCREASE OF 14 PER CENT ON THE PREVIOUS YEAR AND BY FAR THE BIGGEST ANNUAL INCREASE IN THE DEVELOPED WORLD. Most other European countries actually saw significant falls in the number of settlers.

Germany had a 13 per cent drop in the number of permanent arrivals. In France the figure fell by 7 per cent. Enthusiasts for mass immigration no doubt regard this news as a cause for celebration rather than dismay. CLINGING TO THE WARPED IDEOLOGY OF MULTICULTURALISM AND FILLED WITH LOATHING FOR OUR HERITAGE, THEY DELIGHT IN THE DESTRUCTION OF BRITAIN’S TRADITIONAL IDENTITY. Through a barrage of propaganda they claim that ever-widening cultural diversity not only creates a more vibrant society but also boosts our economy, since migrants supposedly work much harder than the idlers of the indigenous population. But THIS HYSTERICAL CHEERLEADING FOR MASS IMMIGRATION IS A CRUDE EXERCISE IN POLITICAL DECEIT. THE IDEA THAT ALL MIGRANTS COME HERE TO WORK HARD IS JUST NONSENSE, AS IS THE ARGUMENT THAT OUR ECONOMY WOULD INSTANTLY COLLAPSE WITHOUT THE HEROIC CONTRIBUTION OF FOREIGN LABOUR.

The truth is the opposite. IMMIGRATION HAS IMPOSED A SAVAGE BURDEN ON OUR COUNTRY, LEADING TO STRAINS ON OUR PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE. SO MANY OF OUR ESSENTIAL SERVICES, FROM THE ELECTRICITY GRID TO THE NHS, ARE NOW GROSSLY OVER-STRETCHED.
IT IS NO COINCIDENCE THAT AS IMMIGRATION HAS ACCELERATED, SO OUR DEBTS HAVE RISEN AND LIVING STANDARDS FALLEN. PERHAPS WORST OF ALL, SOCIAL SECURITY HAS BEEN PLUNGED INTO CRISIS BY THE COLOSSAL DEMAND FOR BENEFITS FROM MIGRANTS. THE FACT IS THAT MILLIONS OF FOREIGNERS ARE DRAWN HERE NOT BY THE JOBS MARKET BUT BY OUR WELFARE STATE THAT DISHES OUT VAST SUMS TO MIGRANTS WHO HAVE MADE NO CONTRIBUTION TO OUR SOCIETY. THESE SCROUNGERS KNOW THAT BRITAIN IS A SOFT TOUCH. THEY RECOGNISE THAT THEY CAN HAVE A BETTER LIFE HERE LEECHING OFF THE TAXPAYER THAN WORKING IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY.

That is why, even at a time of increasing unemployment, immigration continues to increase rapidly. It is also why HORDES OF YOUNG MEN FROM AFRICA AND ASIA GATHER IN THE NORTHERN PORTS OF FRANCE DESPERATE TO GET TO THE LUCRATIVE HONEYPOT OF THE BRITISH WELFARE STATE.

All too typically THE EUROPEAN UNION HAS ENCOURAGED THIS CLIMATE OF ENTITLEMENT AMONG MIGRANTS TO BRITAIN. ONLY THIS WEEK IT EMERGED THAT BRUSSELS HAS WRITTEN TO THE DEPARTMENT FOR WORK AND PENSIONS WARNING THAT BENEFITS SHOULD NOT BE WITHHELD FROM FOREIGNERS WHO MOVE HERE, EVEN IF THEY HAVE NEVER WORKED IN BRITAIN.
The EU’s threat came to light as a result of a court case taken by a Latvian pensioner, 72-year old Galina Patmalniece, who tried to gain asylum in Britain in 2000. Her claim was rejected but predictably no efforts were ever made to deport her. INSTEAD OF A ONE-WAY TICKET BACK TO LATVIA SHE WAS REPORTEDLY GIVEN A COUNCIL FLAT. Now, emboldened by the laxity of border controls and the indiscriminate generosity of welfare system, she has mounted a legal fight to win a British pension credit, worth perhaps £80 a week. Her case has so far been rejected by the British courts but, tragically, we are no longer a sovereign nation. Brussels will decide the final outcome and given THEIR EAGERNESS TO DESTROY THE CONCEPT OF NATIONHOOD they could well find in Ms Patmalniece’s favour. That would really open the floodgates, with British taxpayers responsible for the pensions of millions of foreigners.

That is already the dismal trend of our times. We are, for instance, paying a fortune in housing benefit for immigrants to live in expensive parts of London THAT COULD NEVER BE AFFORDED BY ORDINARY BRITISH JOBHOLDERS. IN ONE OUTRAGEOUS BUT TELLING CASE, A 42-YEAR-OLD JOBLESS SOMALIAN CALLED ABDI NUR WAS GIVEN A £2.1MILLION PERIOD TOWNHOUSE IN NOTTING HILL FOR HIMSELF, HIS WIFE AND SEVEN CHILDREN AT A COST TO THE TAXPAYER OF £2,000 A WEEK IN HOUSING BENEFIT.

AT LEAST 155,000 ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS WHO SHOULD BE THROWN OUT ARE LIVING HERE ON BENEFITS. IMMIGRANTS ARE FAR MORE LIKELY TO BE UNEMPLOYED AND DEPENDENT ON THE STATE THAN BRITISH PEOPLE. SOME 52 PER CENT OF TURKS AND 50 PER CENT OF PAKISTANIS ARE ECONOMICALLY INACTIVE, COMPARED TO 18 PER CENT OF THE UK-BORN POPULATION.
The idea that we owe the world a living is grotesque. It is shattering the principles of social justice on which our welfare system is based. When Lord Beveridge, founding father of social security, first came up with the scheme in 1944, he stressed it should not give “’omething for nothing’ but should provide benefits on the basis of contributions. That spirit has disappeared completely DUE TO GOVERNMENT WEAKNESS AND EU INTERVENTION.”

“CHILDREN BORN TO 'OVERLY FERTILE' FOREIGNERS and middle-aged women has been behind THE FASTEST POPULATION GROWTH IN FIVE DECADES. THE NUMBER OF BIRTHS HAS RISEN BY 22 PER CENT OVER THE LAST TEN YEARS ALONE WITH ONE IN FOUR OF THOSE BABIES BORN TO IMMIGRANT MOTHERS.

One of the main reasons for the population surge is that more women are having children in their 30s and 40s, according to the Office for National Statistics. OTHER FACTORS INCLUDE HIGH LEVELS OF IMMIGRATION AND THE GENEROUS STATE BENEFITS INTRODUCED BY THE LAST GOVERNMENT. OFFICIALS SUGGESTED THAT 'INCREASES IN THE NUMBERS OF FOREIGN-BORN WOMEN WITH ABOVE-AVERAGE FERTILITY' WERE ALSO FUELLING THE BABY BOOM.”

“THE TRUE SIZE OF BRITAIN’S DEBT MOUNTAIN CAN BE REVEALED TODAY AS £2TRILLION – NEARLY £80,000 A HOUSEHOLD. Previously ‘hidden’ liabilities including the cost of public sector pensions and building projects are being published by the Treasury.

THE FUTURE COST OF SCHOOLS AND HOSPITALS BUILT UNDER THE CONTROVERSIAL PRIVATE FINANCE INITIATIVE WILL PILE AN EXTRA £40BILLION ON TO OUR DEBT MOUNTAIN. The £1.1trillion and the £40billion come on top of the official debt figure of £909billion.

“In any sane democratic society the Government is meant to look after the interests of the people it represents. But THAT IS THE VERY OPPOSITE OF WHAT HAPPENS IN MODERN BRITAIN. The principles of political morality have been inverted so that LAWABIDING BRITONS ARE NEGLECTED OR OPPRESSED WHILE OUR UNPATRIOTIC MINISTERS BEND OVER BACKWARDS TO FAVOUR FOREIGNERS. THE STATE CONSTANTLY TAKES FROM US YET TREATS US WITH CONTEMPT. BILLIONS OF POUNDS ARE SQUANDERED ON OVERSEAS AID, 80 PER CENT OF NEW JOBS GO TO IMMIGRANTS AND 80 PER CENT OF OUR NEW LAWS ORIGINATE IN BRUSSELS. We spend more on our contribution to the European Union than on policing. We are harassed by officialdom yet the state is incapable of deporting foreign criminals because of their so-called human rights.

THE POLITICAL ELITE’S DISDAIN FOR THE BRITISH PEOPLE HAS SHATTERED ALL SENSE OF NATIONAL SOLIDARITY. David Cameron’s slogan “We’re all in this together” is rendered meaningless when welfare benefits and expensive public housing are lavished on newly arrived immigrants. The same is true of British industry. THE EXCUSE-MAKING POLITICIANS SHOW NO INCLINATION TO SAFEGUARD OUR MANUFACTURING BASE, NO DESIRE TO SUSTAIN THE JOBS OF BRITISH WORKERS. THAT TREACHEROUS SPIRIT WAS EXEMPLIFIED IN THE DECISION TO AWARD A MASSIVE £3BILLION CONTRACT FOR NEW ROLLING STOCK ON THE THAMESLINK RAILWAY TO THE GERMAN COMPANY SIEMENS RATHER THAN DERBY TRAIN MANUFACTURER BOMBARDIER.

As a result of this step it is likely that 1,400 JOBS WILL BE LOST AT BOMBARDIER AND ANOTHER 12,000 COULD DISAPPEAR AMONG LOCAL CONTRACTORS IN THE EAST MIDLANDS. Bombardier’s Litchurch Lane factory could soon go the way of all those other great railway works that used to exist at Doncaster, Crewe and Swindon, whose pounding metallic rhythms were once so symbolic of Britain’s industrial might. The decision on the Thameslink contract makes a mockery of all the coalition’s rhetoric about strengthening British industry and boosting the private sector. INSTEAD OF STANDING UP FOR THE LAST TRAIN MAKER IN THE COUNTRY THE GOVERNMENT TOOK THE GUTLESS COURSE OF HIDING BEHIND EU COMPETITION RULE.

NO MINISTERS IN FRANCE OR GERMANY, WHERE A SPIRIT OF ECONOMIC PATRIOTISM STILL PREVAILS, WOULD DREAM OF ACTING IN THIS CRAVEN MANNER. WHAT IS ALSO STRIKING IS THE GROTESQUE HYPOCRISY. IN RECENT YEARS POLITICIANS FROM ALL PARTIES HAVE TRUMPETED THEIR SUPPORT FOR THE FAIR TRADE MOVEMENT, WHICH AIMS TO PROMOTE SUSTAINABLE ECONOMIC GROWTH, UPHOLD THE RIGHTS OF WORKERS AND PROTECT THE LIVELIHOODS OF PRODUCERS IN THE DEVELOPING WORLD FROM EXPLOITATION…

But why should the concept of economic fairness apply only to the developing world? Why are the rights of Latin American coffee growers nurtured yet those of East Midlands train manufacturers ignored? As usual IN THE TWISTED MORAL UNIVERSE INHABITED BY OUR ELITE, SOCIAL JUSTICE IS FOR FOREIGNERS NOT THE BRITISH WORKING-CLASS. Our politicians talk about the benefits of social responsibility in Fair Trade relationships but appear utterly oblivious to the concept at home. In fact, if wider social and economic factors had been taken into account then the Thameslink contract would undoubtedly have gone to Bombardier. This is not just because of the high costs of redundancies and longer dole queues in the East Midlands but also because of the potential damage to the entire economy from the disappearance of the British railway industry, with all the consequent loss of engineering expertise and manufacturing capacity.

Indeed, an emphasis on wider considerations beyond just the price is precisely how our European rivals, like France, Germany and Italy, manage to award major contracts to their own companies without breaking EU laws. As Francesco Grillo, a Rome based consultant, points out: ‘In Italy, the bidders have to meet very high requirements. In many cases they must have carried out identical work in the same geographical area.’ But such a pragmatic approach seems to be beyond our supine rulers who regard Brussels, not the British people, as our real masters. THE REAL LESSON OF THE BOMBARDIER FIASCO IS THAT WE SHOULD HAVE NEVER HAVE JOINED THE EUROPEAN UNION IN THE FIRST PLACE.

BEFORE OUR ACCESSION IN 1973 WE WERE STILL A MAJOR ECONOMIC PLAYER ON THE INTERNATIONAL STAGE. BUT THANKS TO ITS DEFEATIST MENTALITY OUR POLITICAL ESTABLISHMENT DECIDED WE COULD NO LONGER SURVIVE ALONE, SO WE WERE SUCKED WITHIN THE DESTRUCTIVE EMBRACE OF EUROPE. THE RESULT HAS BEEN A DISASTER. WHEREAS OTHER COUNTRIES SUCH AS NORWAY AND SWITZERLAND HAVE FLOURISHED OUTSIDE THE EU WE HAVE ENDURED CONTINUING DECLINE. THE HABIT OF SUBJUGATION TO BRUSSELS IS SO DEEP THAT OUR POLITICIANS CANNOT EVEN AWARD A RAILWAY CONTRACT TO ONE OF OUR OWN FACTORIES.”

Geoff Hawkins, chief executive of the housing charity Chapter 1, said the problem was no longer confined to the stereotype of rough sleepers rehabilitating from lifelong addictions, but now includes victims of recession who do not qualify for appropriate help. The housing charity Shelter, meanwhile, accused the Government of dismantling the housing safety net that helps so many people to stay in their homes.”

“Tony Blair won much praise when he announced with great fanfare last August that he was donating his huge earnings from his memoirs to the Royal British Legion. Curiously, the Armed Forces charity seems reluctant to trumpet his generosity. Mandrake can report that THE LEGION’S LATEST ACCOUNTS, WHICH COVER THE 12 MONTHS TO THE END OF SEPTEMBER 2010, MAKE NO MENTION OF ITS HAVING RECEIVED ANY MONEY FROM THE FORMER PRIME MINISTER.”

“TONY BLAIR URGED GORDON BROWN TO PERSUADE THE LABOUR MP WHO LED THE CAMPAIGN TO EXPOSE NEWS OF THE WORLD PHONE-HACKING TO BACK OFF, friends of Mr Brown said last night. Well-placed sources said Mr BLAIR, WHO HAS CLOSE LINKS WITH THE PAPER’S OWNER RUPERT MURDOCH, WANTED MR BROWN TO GET HIS ALLY TOM WATSON TO LAY OFF THE NEWS INTERNATIONAL title, but Mr Brown refused. Mr Watson’s two-year crusade played a major part in Mr Murdoch’s shock decision to close the paper after today’s edition…

The assertion that Mr Blair tried to help Mr Murdoch came amid claims that Mr WATSON WAS TOLD MRS BROOKS ‘WILL PURSUE YOU FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE’ over his stance. Mrs BROOKS BEGGED BLAIRITE EX-CABINET MINISTER TESSA JOWELL TO HELP ‘STOP THIS MADMAN TOM WATSON’ – AND ALSO SOUGHT HELP FROM HER FRIEND, MR BLAIR.

Labour MP Chris Bryant, a phone-hack victim, branded NI ‘gangsters’. A NI executive threatened to take revenge on Ed Miliband for saying Mrs Brooks should quit.”

“Ministers have been accused of seeking to plug a black hole in university funding BY ARRANGING FOR 10,000 FEE-PAYING BRAZILIANS TO STUDY IN THE UK. David Willetts, the universities minister, flew to South America last month to arrange a deal that he hopes will be highly lucrative at a time of cuts to state funding for higher education. The Brazilian government is planning to provide up to £18,700 a student. Universities UK, the representative body for universities in this country, said it welcomed the plan, which promised ‘rich rewards’.”

“At least half the county councils across the UK are plunging tens of thousands of streets into darkness to save money. DESPITE FEARS OF INCREASED ACCIDENTS AND CRIME, BLACKOUTS ARE BEING IMPOSED AFTER MIDNIGHT IN RESIDENTIAL AND RURAL AREAS BY AT LEAST HALF THE COUNTY COUNCILS ACROSS THE UK.

Cash-strapped town halls are either switching off street lamps or fitting dimmer switches as they try to cut energy bills and meet climate change targets… OF THE 20 COUNTY COUNCILS CONTACTED YESTERDAY, 16 CONFIRMED THEY WERE EITHER SWITCHING OFF OR DIMMING STREET LIGHTS.”

“Most Islamic terrorists convicted in Britain spend less than three and a half years in prison, a shock report has revealed. A third go free after no more than 16 months. And BRITAIN IS NOW A ‘HUB FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF TERRORISTS’, The survey found.

Seven out of 10 Islamic fanatics are ‘home-grown’ British nationals, according to the Henry Jackson Society. The think-tank analysed 138 Islamic terror convictions from 1999 to 2010.

It found 54 per cent of the terrorists were given sentences of between one and nine years – and that those defendants spent a maximum of three and a half years in jail.
Incredibly, eight of them avoided prison altogether. The report gave examples of soft justice including the case of MOHAMMED KABASHI WHO WAS SENTENCED TO NINE YEARS FOR HELPING THE FAILED 21/7 LONDON BOMBERS BUT WALKED OUT OF JAIL AFTER JUST TWO YEARS AND THREE MONTHS.”

“In a speech to the Progress campaign group, Mr Blair tore into Mr Brown saying: ‘I remain unremittingly an advocate of third way, centre ground, progressive politics that came to be called NEW LABOUR. FROM 1997 WE WERE NEW LABOUR. In June 2007, frankly we stopped. We didn’t become Old Labour exactly but WE LOST THE DRIVING RHYTHM THAT MADE US DIFFERENT AND SUCCESSFUL. It was not a government of continuity, I’m afraid, from 1997 to 2010 pursuing the same politics. It was ten plus three.’
Although Mr Blair did not name Mr Brown, his comments are clearly targeted at his successor, who took over as Labour leader in June 2007 and lost the general election three years later.

Mr BLAIR URGED MR MILIBAND TO DO MORE TO EMBRACE BIG BUSINESS IF HE WANTED TO WIN THE NEXT GENERAL ELECTION. Mr BLAIR SAID HIS ‘PRO-ENTERPRISE AND BUSINESS POLICY’, WHICH TOOK THE MANTLE AWAY FROM THE TORIES AS THE PARTY OF BUSINESS, WAS ONE OF THE KEY REASONS FOR HIS ELECTORAL SUCCESS. ‘Job creation is a progressive project and you don’t create jobs by attacking the businesses that create them,’ he said. Mr Blair added that Labour was unable to respond when the Tories produced a host of senior business figures to back them at the election.

‘If you are fighting an election, as we were on the basis ‘WE ARE THE PEOPLE BEST ABLE TO MANAGE THE ECONOMY AND LOOK AFTER IT’, my instinct is ... it’s really hard to do that unless you have a section of business that’s prepared to come out and support you,’ he said.

And in a warning to Mr Miliband not to take the party to the Left, he said:
‘Progressives win when they have the courage to be the change-makers. They lose when the public senses that to please themselves, they retreat to where they feel calm, comfortable and small c conservative, echoing the politics of protest but shunning the hard decisions of government.

Parties of the Left have a genetic tendency, deep in their DNA, to cling to an analysis that they lose because the leadership is insufficiently committed to being Left… there’s always a slightly curious problem with this since usually we have lost to a party of the Right. This strategy never works.’

Mr BLAIR ALSO REITERATED HIS SUPPORT FOR THE UK’S MEMBERSHIP OF THE EURO, DESPITE THE ECONOMIC CRISIS GRIPPING THE SINGLE CURRENCY ZONE.”

“John Yates, the senior police officer who failed fully to investigate phone hacking at the News of the World, has issued an unprecedented apology for letting down the victims. Scotland Yard's Assistant Commissioner says his decision not to reopen an investigation into News International in 2009 had been ‘a PRETTY CRAP one’, which he now deeply regretted.”

The Telegraph – 9 July 2011.


“David Cameron was visibly uncomfortable during his press conference yesterday. He knew that the News of the World scandal has put him in a deep political hole. I am hoping and praying that HE IS NOT GOING TO SACRIFICE A FREE PRESS in order to dig himself out…

I got the impression from hearing Mr Cameron speak that he believes – or affects to believe – that the whole press is somehow dysfunctional, and MAY NEED TO HAVE ITS WINGS CLIPPED. In fact, what went badly wrong concerned the failings of one Sunday red-top newspaper, and the relations between leading politicians and one newspaper group. THERE IS NOTHING IN THE BRITISH CONSTITUTION THAT REQUIRED MR CAMERON TO ABASE HIMSELF IN FRONT OF THE MEDIA MOGUL, RUPERT MURDOCH, owner of the News of the World. It was his choice – just as IT WAS HIS CHOICE TO APPOINT ANDY COULSON, WHO HAD PRESIDED OVER A PHONE HACKING REGIME WHILE THE PAPER’S EDITOR, AS HIS MEDIA ADVISER.

THE PRIME MINISTER IGNORED MUCH FRIENDLY AND WELL-INFORMED ADVICE NOT TO APPOINT MR COULSON IN 2007. He seems also to have disregarded a tip-off from the editor of the Guardian before the last election that Mr Coulson had connections with a private investigator called Jonathan Rees, who had been in prison for seven years. Mr CAMERON WANTED MR COULSON AT HIS SIDE – SOMETHING NOT MENTIONED AT YESTERDAY’S PRESS CONFERENCE – BECAUSE IT GAVE HIM AN ENTRÉE INTO NEWS INTERNATIONAL AND ITS ULTIMATE BOSS, RUPERT MURDOCH, WHOSE SUPPORT HE CRAVED. At that time, Mr Murdoch’s newspapers, including the News of the World, had backed New Labour for many years.
IN THE SUMMER OF 2008 MR CAMERON HITCHED A FREE LIFT ON THE AIRCRAFT OF MR MURDOCH’S SON-IN-LAW, THE PR MAN MATTHEW FREUD, SO THAT HE COULD MEET THE MEDIA MOGUL ON HIS YACHT IN THE MEDITERRANEAN. THIS RECALLED THE FLIGHT MADE BY TONY BLAIR TO AUSTRALIA IN 1995 SOON AFTER BECOMING LEADER OF THE LABOUR PARTY, WHEN HE ADDRESSED MURDOCH EXECUTIVES IN A SIMILAR ATTEMPT TO INGRATIATE HIMSELF.

Mr Cameron’s assiduous courting of the press tycoon was entirely his own choice, and went beyond what many thought wise or necessary. It was imprudent for him to get so close to Mr Freud, a near neighbour in Oxfordshire, and more imprudent still for him to befriend Rebekah Brooks, another close neighbour, and the chief executive of News International as well as a former editor of the News of the World.

AS RECENTLY AS LAST CHRISTMAS, MR CAMERON AND HIS WIFE SAMANTHA DINED WITH MRS BROOKS AND HER HUSBAND AT THEIR HOME IN OXFORDSHIRE. THIS WAS AN AMAZING THING TO HAVE DONE AT A TIME WHEN THE PHONE HACKING SCANDAL WAS ALREADY A PRESSING ISSUE, and it is impossible not to doubt his judgment. But let’s not heap all the blame on the Prime Minister. THE LEADER OF THE OPPOSITION, ED MILIBAND – A MAN NO LESS VOCAL THAN MR CAMERON IN HIS UNCTUOUS DENUNCIATIONS OF THE PRESS – ALSO HAS MUCH EXPLAINING TO DO. I don’t particularly criticise him for attending Mr Murdoch’s recent summer party, but there are unanswered questions about HIS RECRUITMENT OF TOM BALDWIN, A FORMER TIMES JOURNALIST AND MURDOCH LOYALIST, AS HIS SPIN DOCTOR. There are allegations about some of Mr Baldwin’s journalistic techniques that bear further investigation. More pertinent still is the record of Mr Miliband’s predecessor but one, TONY BLAIR, WHOSE SYCOPHANTIC COURTING OF THE MURDOCH EMPIRE WAS ONE OF THE MOST SICKENING ASPECTS OF HIS YEARS IN NO 10. I SUGGEST THAT WITHOUT THE BLIND SUPPORT OF THE MURDOCH PRESS, MR BLAIR WOULD HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO PURSUE WHAT WAS PROBABLY AN ILLEGAL WAR IN IRAQ.

THE MURDOCH NEWSPAPERS… DOWNPLAYED OR IGNORED INCONVENIENT EVIDENCE ABOUT THE WAR’S ILLEGALITY. SIGNIFICANTLY, IN THE TEN DAYS BEFORE THE INVASION, MR BLAIR AND MR MURDOCH SPOKE ON THE TELEPHONE THREE TIMES…

There was no need for Messrs Blair and Cameron to bend the knee as they did. They believed – often wrongly, I suggest – that it was in their interest to do so.
Mr Cameron has announced the establishment of a tribunal into the ethics of the press. Perhaps WE SHOULD HAVE ANOTHER TRIBUNAL INVESTIGATING POLITICIANS WHO HAVE SUCKED UP TO MR MURDOCH OVER THE YEARS.”

“Women have overtaken men in the number of same-sex unions for the first time since civil partnerships were legalised in 2005. The number of lesbian couples tying the knot has steadily increased, with 2010 being a record year as 51 per cent of all partnerships were female couples…

The number of civil partnerships in 2010 increased by 1.7 per cent overall to 5,536 in England and 9.8 per cent to 268 in Wales.”

“David Cameron's former media chief Andy Coulson and the News of the World's ex-royal editor were arrested today. Mr Coulson, the paper's former editor, was being questioned over claims he paid police for information and ordered journalists to hack into mobile phones. Police also seized Clive Goodman, who was jailed in 2007 over the phone hacking scandal. He was held on suspicion of making illegal payments to police.”

“Thousands of serious criminals are wrongly getting away with on-the-spot fines, England’s most senior judge said. Lord Chief Justice Lord Judge SAID A THIRD OF THE FINES HANDED OUT BY POLICE OFFICERS ARE GIVEN TO VIOLENT OR PROFESSIONAL CRIMINALS WHO SHOULD HAVE BEEN BROUGHT TO COURT.

He warned police forces that they should never let a persistent or professional thief off with an £80 fine, or hand out on-the-spot fines to violent offenders.”

“Rupert Murdoch announced the closure of the 168-year-old News of the World in a desperate attempt to limit the ongoing scandal over phone hacking, as the paper's former editor, Andy Coulson, prepared to be arrested.

The shock decision was revealed to staff at Mr Murdoch's News International newspaper in an email from his son James, the News Corp deputy chief operating officer, who said: 'The News of the World is in the business of holding others to account. But it failed when it came to itself.'

Journalists raged that they had been betrayed by Rebekah Brooks, News International's chief executive, who faces calls for her resignation, after revelations that the NOTW under her editorship hacked the phone of murdered schoolgirl Milly Dowler. 'MURDOCH HAS SACRIFICED A NEWSPAPER TO SAVE ONE WOMAN,' said one member of the newsroom on a day of dramatic developments in the phone-hacking scandal.

These include: COULSON, DAVID CAMERON'S FORMER DIRECTOR OF COMMUNICATIONS, is expected to be arrested and questioned over what he knew about phone hacking at the NOTW under his editorship; James Murdoch denied perverting the course of justice by authorising payments to hacking victims; The Government's decision on News Corp's proposed takeover of BSkyB is expected to be delayed once the consultation period closes later today…

“Students living in the cities – all home to at least two respected institutions – have a higher chance of being affected by crime than in other areas, figures suggest. Nottingham has more cumulative incidents of burglary, robbery and violence – crimes most likely to affect students – than any major university cities outside the capital, it was claimed. Other university cities with high crime rates include Leicester, Belfast and Birmingham, the study said.

By comparison, Canterbury, Bath and Lancaster were among the safest cities, it emerged.”

“The BBC should avoid pandering to 'metropolitan prejudices' or a 'tasteless common denominator' by standing up for the silent majority, its new chairman has declared. Lord Patten said THE CORPORATION SHOULD LISTEN TO ACCUSATIONS THAT IT IS 'DROWNING' VIEWERS AND LISTENERS WITH 'PREJUDICES' AND 'STEREOTYPES' FROM THE URBAN ELITE.

In a plea for the broadcaster to become MORE REPRESENTATIVE OF THE LICENCE FEE PAYER, he said the ideas of the wider public 'deserve to be considered and reflected'. His comments will be seen as an attempt to address the long-standing claim that THE BBC IS GUILTY OF A LONDON-CENTRIC, LEFT-LEANING BIAS WHICH ALIENATES LARGE SECTIONS OF THE PUBLIC. On the issue of standards, Lord Patten added it would be an 'act of treason' if the BBC reduced quality to chase ratings.”

“As he pledged to pour hundreds of millions more into propping up Afghanistan, David Cameron this week accused critics of his foreign aid policy of being ‘possibly hard-hearted’. The fact is WE’LL SOON BE SPENDING MORE ON THE THIRD WORLD THAN ON THE HOME OFFICE AND, WHILE OTHER BUDGETS FACE CUTS, OVERSEAS AID IS BEING INCREASED BY BILLIONS…

MYTH 1: We can afford to spend a few billion pounds to help the world’s poor.
Defenders of aid say we have a moral duty to help those less fortunate and we are a rich country that can afford it. This argument is put forward by ministers and supporters such as the heiress Jemima Khan, who claims Britain is wealthy enough to spend such trifling sums on aid.

Here are the facts. When TONY BLAIR ESTABLISHED THE DEPARTMENT FOR INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT as the political wing of the charity movement in 1997, its budget was £2.6 billion — more than twice the Foreign Office allocation. Today, we spend £8.1 billion, which will increase to £11.4 billion in 2014 — a 34 per cent rise, despite spending cuts elsewhere.

Unsurprisingly, MPs are getting a growing postbag over this. WE ARE GIVING MORE THAN £300 PER HOUSEHOLD TO THE WORLD’S POOR WHILE PUBLIC SECTOR JOBS ARE LOST AND VITAL SERVICES FOR THE ELDERLY AND DISABLED ARE CLOSED…

FOUR OUT OF FIVE VOTERS OPPOSE THE CROSS-PARTY CONSENSUS OF INCREASING AID SPENDING, according to a new YouGov@Cam survey…

MYTH 2: We must hit the UN target to give away 0.7 per cent of our GNP in aid. Ah yes, the sacred target. For a government promising to sweep away targets, the Coalition is strangely wedded to this particular one.

WE’RE HANDING OVER 0.56 PER CENT OF NATIONAL INCOME — FAR MORE THAN OUR ECONOMIC RIVALS. GERMANY CONTRIBUTES 0.38 PER CENT OF ITS INCOME, WHILE WE DONATE TWICE AS MUCH AS JAPAN AND FIVE TIMES AS MUCH AS ITALY.

But this target is absurd, arbitrary and outdated. It was first calculated more than four decades ago based on theoretical data from the Forties, and was the result of back-of-the-envelope calculations of the needs of poor countries. Since then, Western economies have soared while many poor nations have stagnated. Five years ago, the United Nations itself said the amount of aid really needed was 0.44 per cent of national income…

MYTH 3: Aid works

The economist Peter Bauer famously said AID TRANSFERS CASH FROM POOR PEOPLE IN RICH COUNTRIES TO RICH PEOPLE IN POOR COUNTRIES. His words have been underlined by scores of studies that found idealism tempered by harsh reality.

Zambian economist Dambisa Moyo revealed THE WEST HAD GIVEN MORE THAN HALF A TRILLION POUNDS TO AFRICA, BUT OVER THE PAST THREE DECADES THE MOST AID-DEPENDENT RECIPIENTS SAW NEGATIVE ANNUAL GROWTH RATES.

Haiti is another example. IT WAS GIVEN OFFICIAL AID OF MORE THAN £6 BILLION — FOUR TIMES AS MUCH PER PERSON AS EUROPE RECEIVED UNDER THE MARSHALL PLAN FOR POST-WAR RECONSTRUCTION — IN THE 50 YEARS BEFORE LAST YEAR’S EARTHQUAKE. Private aid poured in as well, with MORE CHARITIES OPERATING IN HAITI PER CAPITA THAN ANY OTHER PLACE ON THE GLOBE. DESPITE THIS, INCOME FELL BY A THIRD. It has, of course, endured DESPOTIC LEADERS, DREADFUL CORRUPTION and political unrest.

The same goes for the Dominican Republic, with which it shares an island — but while receiving far less aid, this nation saw incomes and life expectancy soar over this period.

MYTH 4: OK, it hasn’t worked in the past, but it will in the future. Whenever people point out that mountains of money have disappeared into thin air, the aid lobby says it has learned THE LESSONS OF THE PAST. So yes, CASH FUNDED DICTATORS, FUELLED CORRUPTION, FOSTERED A DEPENDENCY CULTURE AND AIDED GENOCIDAL KILLERS, but things are different now. The new buzzword is ‘smart aid’.

To be fair to Andrew Mitchell, the international development secretary, he has stopped some of LABOUR’S MOST OUTRAGEOUS ABUSES, such as £115,000 spent on stalls at summer music festivals in Britain… His department’s top civil servant admitted this week THE GOVERNMENT STILL HAS NO IDEA HOW MUCH MONEY IS BEING LOST TO FRAUD AND CORRUPTION.

MYTH 5: We will ensure 100 pence of value for every £1 spent on aid.
This was the message Mr Mitchell gave a sceptical Tory Party conference last year, which he repeated to an equally sceptical looking Jeremy Paxman on Newsnight last month. But it’s not true…

Generally, it is estimated by think-tanks and charities that the real figure is in the region of 40p in every pound, though British aid is seen as more cost-effective than most.

THE REST IS SWALLOWED UP BY BUREAUCRACY, CORRUPTION, CONSULTANts, charity costs and duplication between donors — bear in mind dozens of countries and thousands of charities give aid. Indeed, AN AFRICAN NATION MUST WASTE PRECIOUS RESOURCES CHURNING OUT 10,000 ACTION REPORTS FOR AID DONORS A YEAR.

One UN adviser looked into a house-building project in Bamiyan, Afghanistan, that began with £92 million in the bank. The job was sub-contracted so many times through agencies in Geneva, Washington and Kabul — each taking administration fees — that BY THE TIME THE MONEY GOT TO THOSE WORKING ON THE PROJECT, THEY COULD AFFORD TO BUY ONLY SOME WOODEN BEAMS FROM IRAN. THEY WERE DELIVERED FOR FIVE TIMES THE NORMAL COST BY A COMPANY OWNED BY the Bamiyan governor, but turned out to be too heavy for village houses. So they ended up as firewood.

Or take India, WHICH SPENDS £1.5 BILLION A YEAR ON A SPACE PROGRAMME, BUT IS STILL ONE OF THE BIGGEST RECIPIENTS OF OUR AID. The World Bank just carried out the first major evaluation of its aid programmes and found SO MUCH CORRUPTION THAT ONLY 40 PER CENT OF GRAIN GIVEN TO THE POOR REACHES ITS TARGET.

MYTH 6: Aid changes the world for the better.

British aid props up repressive autocrats. Human Rights Watch issued a devastating report last year that revealed how DFID’S 250-STRONG STAFF IN ETHIOPIA FAILED TO MONITOR ANNUAL SPENDING OF NEARLY £300 MILLION. Worse, BRITISH TAXPAYERS’ MONEY WAS SHORING UP AN AUTOCRATIC REGIME, FUNDING INDOCTRINATION AND WITH FOOD USED AS A POLITICAL WEAPON.

THE SAME IS TRUE IN RWANDA, WHERE BRITAIN AIDED A SHAM ELECTION LAST YEAR BY FUNDING THE ELECTORAL BODY THAT PREVENTED THE PRESIDENT’S RIVALS FROM STANDING AND THE MEDIA COUNCIL THAT CLOSED INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPERS. This tiny nation, a favourite of Mr Mitchell, is being given an average £83 million a year despite last month’s disclosure it had sent a hit squad to assassinate exiles living in Britain.
WE HAVE ALSO GIVEN SUBSTANTIAL SUMS TO YEMEN, DESPITE THE CONCERNS OVER THE REGIME’S APPALLING HUMAN RIGHTS RECORD…

MYTH 7: The slew of statistics prove that aid is a success.

Here is the core argument, repeated by the Prime Minister in a passionate defence of aid last month. As ever, it was accompanied by a grief-stained tale from a slum and statistics on lives saved and children educated thanks to British generosity. Unfortunately, this is far from the full story.

The Coalition is tackling welfare dependency at home, BUT ENCOURAGING IT ABROAD. When countries are given more than half their income, they have less incentive to respond to citizens’ needs.

Harvard Medical School found LOCAL SPENDING ON HEALTH FELL WHEN HEALTH-RELATED AID WAS GIVEN IN SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA. THIS MEANS WE PAY FOR SCHOOLS AND HOSPITALS, ENABLING POLITICIANS TO STEAL VAST SUMS OR FRITTER AWAY REVENUES ON ARMS AND SECURITY (USUALLY SOLD BY THE WEST, WITH BRIBES INVOLVED).
THEY WIN ELECTIONS THROUGH BRIBERY OR VIOLENCE RATHER THAN IMPROVED PUBLIC SERVICES, WHILE INNOVATION IS STIFLED AND LOCAL ENTREPRENEURS ARE DRIVEN OUT OF BUSINESS BY DUMPED GOODS AND CHEAP MONEY.

The result is that AID CORRODES, RATHER THAN BUILDS, CIVIL SOCIETY, AS SENIOR CHARITY OFFICIALS HAVE ADMITTED TO ME. THIS WAS THE MESSAGE FROM A CONFERENCE I ATTENDED IN PAKISTAN TWO MONTHS AGO, WHERE ACADEMICS FROM ACROSS THE POLITICAL SPECTRUM BLAMED AID FOR THEIR NATION’S MOUNTING PROBLEMS, WITH VENAL POLITICIANS IGNORING CITIZENS’ CONCERNS AND AN OVER-POWERFUL ARMY GROWN FAT ON FOREIGN FUNDING.
Needless to say, BRITAIN PLANS TO DOUBLE AID TO NEARLY HALF A BILLION POUNDS A YEAR TO PAKISTAN…

MYTH 8: Britain will no longer tolerate mis-spending of funds.

Uganda has historic ties to Britain and is among the most favoured recipients of aid. When Mr Mitchell was confronted on Newsnight over a Daily Mail report that PRESIDENT YOWERI MUSEVENI HAD BOUGHT A £30 MILLION PRIVATE JET, he said this happened under Labour and such behaviour would no longer be tolerated. So here is a conundrum for Mr Mitchell. Put aside Mr Museveni’s use of violence and bribery to win a disputed election this year. WHAT ABOUT THE RECENT REVELATION That he has bought six Russian fighter jets at twice the market rate and without parliamentary approval?

The sum involved was nearly half a billion pounds — three times annual spending on Uganda’s health service and THE SAME AMOUNT, COINCIDENTALLY, AS WE PLAN TO GIVE OVER THE NEXT FIVE YEARS. It’s thought nearly £2 BILLION HAS BEEN SPIRITED OUT OF AFGHANISTAN SINCE 2007, SOME TO GULF TAX HAVENS, WITH THE FAMILY AND ASSOCIATES OF PRESIDENT HAMID KARZAI LINKED TO A £90 MILLION DUBAI PROPERTY EMPIRE.
Much of this cash is from aid donations, with £25 million disappearing from one donation to a hospital alone. DESPITE THIS, LAST YEAR BRITAIN ANNOUNCED THAT AID WAS RISING BY 40 PER CENT TO £178 MILLION A YEAR.

MYTH 9: Aid is in our interest to prevent immigration.

When all else fails to persuade voters on aid, politicians appeal to self-interest. It makes sense, they say, because developing the poorest countries means less immigration here. This sounds logical. But it is wrong. Dr Hein de Haas from the International Migration Institute at Oxford University has shown that SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT LEADS TO MORE MIGRATION BECAUSE IT INCREASES PEOPLE’S ABILITY TO MOVE AND RAISES ASPIRATIONS. Travelling across continents is costly, while education lifts expectations and technology such as TV and computers offers a glimpse of wealthier lifestyles.

As Dr de Haas points out, this is why THE HEAVIEST IMMIGRATION COME FROM COUNTRIES SUCH AS MEXICO, MOROCCO AND THE PHILIPPINES — hardly the world’s poorest places.

MYTH 10: Developing nations are desperate to be saved.

Overseas aid began as a political stunt and remains a political stunt, used to prove politicians have a heart. But the more I travel around Africa and Asia, the more criticism I hear of how the constant emphasis on aid and endless negative imagery demeans developing nations.

This is worsened by the associated boom in the highly competitive charity sector — as one British official said: ‘IF YOU DON’T HAVE STARVING BABIES, YOU DON’T GET THE MONEY.’

It is noticeable THE MOST PASSIONATE SAVIOURS OF THE WORLD ARE WESTERN POP STARS AND POLITICIANS, WHILE THE MOST TRENCHANT CRITICS COME FROM DEVELOPING NATIONS.
‘The premise is that AFRICANS LACK THE CAPACITY TO SAVE THEMSELVES AND MUST RELY ON THE KINDNESS OF STRANGERS,’ SAID THABO MBEKI, FORMER PRESIDENT OF SOUTH AFRICA.”

“BRITONS WILL HAVE TO WORK UNTIL THEY ARE 70 AND FACE FURTHER TAX HIKES TO REPAIR BATTERED FINANCES, a hard-hitting report warns. The state pension age must be increased to 70 by 2046 to help pay for the ageing population, according to accountants PricewaterhouseCoopers.

Current coalition plans are to bring in the state pension at 68 by then... The report argues that an additional £20 billion of tax rises or spending cuts will be needed by 2020 to cut public debt to pre-crisis levels. That is on top of the £110 billion five-year austerity package already outlined by Chancellor George Osborne to tackle Britain’s record debts up to 2015.

An extra £20 billion could be raised by increasing VAT from 20 per cent to 24 per cent or putting another 2p on both employer and employee national insurance contributions, says PwC. Such tax hikes would be extremely unpopular but the warning comes as Britain is forced to face up to the spiralling cost of funding care in old age.”

“ISLAMIC EXTREMISTS HAVE CALLED ON BRITISH MUSLIMS TO ESTABLISH THREE INDEPENDENT STATES WITHIN THE UK.

The notorious Muslims Against the Crusades (MAC) group have named Yorkshire towns BRADFORD AND DEWSBURY AND TOWER HAMLETS in East London as testbeds for blanket Sharia rule.

The medieval 'emirates' would operate entirely outside British law, according to a document on the MAC website. The MAC group, led by Abu Assadullah, was set up last year and has become notorious because of its violent protests, most provocatively burning poppies during the Remembrance Day silence.

Under the heading 'Muslims should set up Islamic emirates in the UK', MAC says: 'WE SUGGEST IT IS TIME THAT AREAS WITH LARGE MUSLIM POPULATIONS DECLARE AN EMIRATE DELINEATING THAT MUSLIMS TRYING TO LIVE WITHIN THIS AREA ARE TRYING TO LIVE BY THE SHARIA AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE WITH THEIR OWN COURTS AND COMMUNITY WATCH AND SCHOOLS AND EVEN SELF SUFFICIENT TRADE.”

“INCREASING AMOUNTS OF TAXPAYERS' MONEY WILL BE LOST TO CORRUPT FOREIGN REGIMES AS A RESULT OF THE GOVERNMENT'S 'BALLOONING' AID BUDGET, a senior civil servant admitted. Mark Lowcock, the highest ranking civil servant in the Department for International Development, also confessed that his department had no idea about the scale of public money already lost to fraud and corruption.

MPs on the influential public accounts committee said they were 'shocked' by the failure of officials to assess the scale of the problem at a time when SPENDING ON FOREIGN AID IS SET TO RISE BY 34 PER CENT IN REAL TERMS TO £12.6BILLION BY 2014.
Margaret Hodge, chairman of the committee, accused officials of 'outrageously bad planning' and told Mr Lowcock it was 'daft' his department could not estimate how much aid money is being siphoned off by corrupt officials.

The National Audit Office has already warned that Britain's aid programme is at 'risk' because of lax CONTROLS TO PREVENT FRAUD AND CORRUPTION. A recent report found that the level of fraud was already 'likely to be under-reported'.”

They make up nearly a fifth of all medicines prescribed for heart and circulatory disease, according to the British Heart Foundation.”

“One of the most depressing traits of corporate Britain is A GLEEFUL, ALMOST AGGRESSIVE DISDAIN FOR OUR NATIONAL INTERESTS… AMONG TOO MANY COMPANIES AND STATE INSTITUTIONS THERE IS NOW AN OPEN CONTEMPT FOR OUR OWN PEOPLE. This absence of national pride is constantly on display, whether it be in THE EAGER OFFICIAL EMBRACE OF MULTICULTURALISM OR THE SURRENDER TO THE EUROPEAN UNION. THE DESTRUCTION OF OUR BORDERS, THE NEGLECT OF HISTORY IN SCHOOLS AND THE APPEASEMENT OF MILITANT ISLAM ARE ALL OTHER EXAMPLES of this destructive mentality.

Just as dispiriting has been the negative response given to the speech made in Madrid last week by the Work and Pensions Secretary Iain Duncan Smith, in which he urged employers to hire more British workers instead of always relying on foreign labour…

From Left-wing commentators came the predictable warnings about the risks of stoking up racism against foreigners, the kind of EMOTIONAL BLACKMAIL THAT HAS BEEN USED THROUGHOUT THE LAST DECADE TO CLOSE DOWN AN HONEST DEBATE ABOUT IMMIGRATION. Business leaders joined in this chorus of disapproval, though MUCH OF THEIR COMMENTARY AMOUNTED TO LITTLE MORE THAN ANTI-BRITISH PROPAGANDA. So they blathered about 'skill shortages' despite the reality that many of the jobs taken by migrants are unskilled while in advanced sectors like engineering and information technology there are, contrary to myth, disturbingly high rates of joblessness among British graduates.

The employers, like the politically correct brigade, also took to extolling the work ethic of migrants compared to supposedly lazy Britons. As usual they cited the diligence of Poles and other eastern Europeans though MORE THAN TWO THIRDS OF THE 580,000 IMMIGRANTS WHO ARRIVE HERE EVERY YEAR ACTUALLY COME FROM AFRICA AND ASIA AND MANY OF THEM ARE ONLY TOO KEEN TO JOIN THE DEPENDENCY CULTURE. MORE THAN 80 PER CENT OF SOMALIANS, FOR INSTANCE, LIVE IN TAXPAYER-FUNDED SOCIAL HOUSING. In addition, the focus on the hard-working Europeans ignores the fact that even when they hold jobs THEY CAN PUT A TREMENDOUS STRAIN ON OUR PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE, ESPECIALLY IF THEY BRING FAMILIES OVER HERE SINCE THEY ARE ENTITLED TO TAX CREDITS, CHILD BENEFIT, HOUSING, NHS TREATMENT AND SCHOOLING.

But by far the most ludicrous argument used against Duncan Smith was that it would be unjust, even illegal, to discriminate in favour of Britons and against foreigners. Yet THAT JUST SHOWS HOW FAR OFFICIAL BRITAIN HAS DESCENDED INTO THE MADHOUSE OF POLITICAL CORRECTNESS. Twenty years ago it would not even have been a matter for debate that companies should recruit largely from the indigenous population. That would have just been common sense. Such an outlook still prevails in almost every other country in the world, from Japan to France. THE IDEA THAT THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG IN PREFERRING A BRITISH APPLICANT TO A FOREIGNER REVEALS THE TERRIFYING EXTENT TO WHICH THE QUASI-MARXIST CREED OF SELF-LOATHING HAS TIGHTENED ITS GRIP ON OUR SOCIETY.

THIS OUTLOOK REPRESENTS A FORM OF NATIONAL SUICIDE, BASED ON THE BELIEF THAT ONE OF OUR OWN PEOPLE HAS NO MORE RIGHTS IN THIS COUNTRY THAN SOMEONE FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WORLD. IT IS THE SAME SELF ABASEMENT THAT LEADS OUR GOVERNMENT TO LAVISH MONEY ON FOREIGN AID WHILE CUTTING PUBLIC SERVICES AT HOME.

What makes this approach even more offensive is its hypocrisy. Successive governments have made a fetish of tackling inequality in the workplace, constantly wailing about under-representation of women or ethnic minorities. Indeed, UNDER HARRIET HARMAN’S SO-CALLED 'EQUALITY LAW', PASSED LAST YEAR, EMPLOYERS ARE REQUIRED TO DISCRIMINATE POSITIVELY IN FAVOUR OF WOMEN AND ETHNIC MINORITIES WHEN IT COMES TO RECRUITMENT.

All this, said Harman, is part of creating 'a new social order'. Yet it is a social order that excludes ordinary Britons.

The truth is that NO GROUP IS MORE EXCLUDED, MORE DISADVANTAGED TODAY THAN THE WHITE WORKING CLASS. OVER THE PAST DECADE 80 PER CENT OF ALL NEW JOBS HAVE GONE TO FOREIGNERS AND, WORRYINGLY, THAT HAS RISEN TO 87 PER CENT DURING THE PAST YEAR. So we have ended up in the grotesque position where THE LAW REQUIRES EMPLOYERS TO DISCRIMINATE IN FAVOUR OF WOMEN AND MINORITIES YET THE POLITICALLY CORRECT BRIGADE REACTS WITH OUTRAGE AT ANY SUGGESTION THAT FIRMS SHOULD DISCRIMINATE IN FAVOUR OF BRITISH PEOPLE. THE NEGLECT OF BRITONS WORKS IN OTHER WAYS TOO, LIKE IN THE DISMALLY LOW STANDARDS OF EDUCATION THAT LEAVE MILLIONS OF SCHOOL-LEAVERS EFFECTIVELY ILLITERATE AND INNUMERATE.

A nation that truly cared about its own people would not tolerate it. Similarly the refusal to reform the social security system has allowed successive generations to grow up knowing nothing of the world of work. EVEN BEFORE THE RECENT RECESSION THERE WERE MORE THAN FIVE MILLION BRITONS OF WORKING AGE LIVING ON BENEFITS, MOST EFFECTIVELY THROWN ON THE SCRAPHEAP BY A LABOUR GOVERNMENT THAT FOR POLITICAL REASONS WANTED A LARGE CLIENT ARMY OF WELFARE DEPENDENTS. Any country that acts like this is doomed.”

“CHILDREN AS YOUNG AS THREE ARE BEING BRANDED BIGOTS AND RACISTS for remarks they make during spats in the playground. Cracking down on abusive words and terms that could be seen as racist, sectarian or homophobic has intensified in recent years as authorities attempt to stamp out bigotry in the workplace and in sport. Almost 2,000 nursery and school pupils in Scotland were reported to education authorities for making bigoted remarks over the last three years.”

The Daily Express – 4 July 2011.


“More than four-fifths (83%) of teachers questioned said they had witnessed racist attitudes or behaviour amongst their students. This included name calling, comments, jokes and stereotyping of different races. These attitudes were not restricted to pupils, as almost a third of those questioned (31%) said they had seen similar behaviour amongst teachers. In some cases, they used racist terminology, or had lower expectations of ethnic minority pupils.

Some interviewees had come across 'teachers with racist attitudes, for example those who were dismissive of the Asian pupils due to perceived language issues'.”

“SOME FAMILIES IN LONDON ARE CONTINUING TO RECEIVE MORE THAN £100,000 A YEAR IN HOUSING BENEFIT… As the Coalition Government faces mounting criticism over plans to cap housing benefit at £500 per week, figures obtained under the Freedom of Information Act, show that some local authorities in the capital are still to paying private landlords up to four times that amount.

In Westminster, the most expensive borough in the country, five families are currently claiming the maximum allowance of £2,000 a week in housing benefit. This means THE COUNCIL, WHICH HAS ANNOUNCED 450 JOB CUTS AS PART OF A BID TO SAVE £60 MILLION, IS HANDING OUT MORE THAN £500,000 A YEAR TO JUST FIVE FAMILIES.
Elsewhere in the capital, PRIVATE LANDLORDS ARE ALSO CONTINUING TO RAKE IN STAGGERING AMOUNTS IN HOUSING BENEFIT UNDER THE SYSTEM THAT WAS INTRODUCED BY THE LABOUR GOVERNMENT. In Lambeth figures for May 2011 show a weekly payment of £1,461 being made to one family, while in Wandsworth another rent payment of £850 a week has been approved.”

“Twice as many job seekers are getting turned down for work because THEY HAVE A BAD ATTITUDE than those who cannot read or add up well. A survey out today shows Britain’s bosses rank the work ethic far higher than numeracy and literacy in the retail, manufacturing, catering and leisure trades. Some 62 per cent said they had turned down applicants because they had a 'poor work attitude and ethic' while 57 per cent cited poor presentation. Only 29 per cent of bosses said they rejected job seekers for unskilled work because of a lack of academic skills.
Eight out of 10 employers rated attitude and work ethic as most important to rising up the jobs ladder, compared with four out of 10 who ranked core skills as more important.”

“Blair accused Prince Charles of 'screwing' the government. Campbell writes that Blair, who was not invited to the royal wedding, became angry when the prince:
Made 'deeply unhelpful' interventions during the foot and mouth crisis in 2001. Campbell wrote on 16 March 2001: 'TB said he knew exactly what he was doing. He also asked whether Charles had ever considered help when 6,000 jobs were lost at Corus [the steel manufacturer]. He said this was all about screwing us and trying to get up the message that we weren't generous enough to the farmers.’

Boycotted a banquet in 1999 for Jiang Zemin, then president of China, a decision criticised by Blair as 'silly'. In a long paper to Blair the prince wrote: 'I feel very strongly about it.'

Challenged Blair on plans to outlaw foxhunting. In what Campbell described as a 'long note on hunting' in late 1999, the prince said it was good for the environment.

Declared in the same note that hereditary peers, the majority of whom were abolished by Labour in 1999, had much to offer. Campbell wrote that the prince had said 'menacingly': 'We don't really want to be like the continentals, now do we?'
Insisted that he had to speak out about GM foods after Downing Street had made clear its unhappiness with what Campbell describes as a 'dreadful' Mail on Sunday article. In the same note to Blair the prince wrote: 'I cannot stay silent.'

Campbell said Blair was furious with the prince's Mail on Sunday article in May 1999. 'He was pretty wound up about it, said it was a straightforward anti-science position, the same argument that says if God intended us to fly, he would have given us wings. It certainly had a feel of grandstanding."

Almost half a million people were added to the UK population last year – the highest level since 1962..

“TENS OF THOUSANDS OF KILLERS, RAPISTS AND THUGS COULD ESCAPE PROSECUTION AFTER AN ALARMING LEGAL JUDGMENT. The ruling tore up 25 years of bail rules for criminal suspects, left a gaping hole in police powers to protect the public and could undermine a string of major investigations… Alleged offenders can no longer be released on bail for weeks or months while officers conduct painstaking investigations. Instead they must be charged within a maximum of 96 hours of arrest.
Senior officers have branded the ruling ‘bizarre’, and indicated that OFFENDERS ARE ALREADY BEING RELEASED FROM CUSTODY AS A RESULT…

As a result of the ruling made by a district judge in the case of a murder suspect, all the 85,000 suspects now on police bail in England and Wales will see it revoked unless officers can bring charges against them within hours.
The protections offered to victims by bail conditions will also go. These include:
Requiring criminals to hand over their passports as part of bail. Suspects could now flee the country.
Insisting paedophiles do not go near schools or children’s play areas as part of their bail conditions;
Suspects being forced to tell the police where they are living. Victims of domestic violence being offered the protection of the court, so their abusive husbands cannot return home.”

“Mass immigration poses the biggest threat to the Coalition’s attempts to get millions of people off benefits as foreign workers take low-paid jobs… Mr Duncan Smith, the Work and Pensions Secretary, will say that tighter immigration controls are vital if Britain is to avoid 'losing another generation to dependency and hopelessness'.

He says only immigrants with 'something to offer' should be allowed into the country and that too often foreign workers purporting to be skilled take low-skilled jobs that could be occupied by British school leavers.

He warns David Cameron that A “SLACK' ATTITUDE TO IMMIGRATION WILL RESULT IN THE COALITION REPEATING THE MISTAKES MADE UNDER LABOUR, WHEN THE VAST MAJORITY OF NEW JOBS GENERATED BEFORE THE RECESSION WERE TAKEN BY IMMIGRANTS.

His comments represent the strongest criticism of immigration since Downing Street strategists advised that the Government should be tougher on the issue. They will be seen as a warning to Mr Cameron not to allow the Liberal Democrats to dictate a softer policy on the issue.”

“Britain's powerlessness to control who has the right to be in this country was glaringly exposed… by two extraordinary cases. In the first… PREACHER OF HATE… Raed Salah was giving a lecture organised by Islamist radicals to a large crowd in Leicester, AND TODAY HE WAS DUE TO SPEAK AT WESTMINSTER AT THE INVITATION OF LEFT-WING LABOUR MPS.

In the second, A BOMBSHELL RULING BY EUROPEAN JUDGES BLOCKED THE DEPORTATION OF SOME 200 SOMALI CRIMINALS BACK TO THEIR HOMELAND. THE STRASBOURG COURT SAID THE MEN, INCLUDING DRUG DEALERS AND SERIAL BURGLARS, MIGHT BE PERSECUTED IN WAR-TORN SOMALIA, AND THAT THEY MUST BE ALLOWED TO STAY TO PROTECT THEIR HUMAN RIGHTS. So, irrespective of how heinous their crimes or the danger they present to the public, Britain has no power to expel them.

The ruling by the European Court of Human Rights stemmed from appeals against deportation by two asylum seekers convicted of a string of serious offences including burglary, making threats to kill and drug dealing… The two men, who were both granted thousands in legal aid to fight their cases, will now be released from immigration detention centres and will be free to walk the streets. They were jointly awarded more than £20,000 for costs and expenses.”

If you’ve got the money you can commit crime and not be prosecuted. What else is new?


“ALMOST 60 PER CENT OF BURGLARS, INCLUDING REPEAT OFFENDERS, ESCAPE JAIL. AN ASTONISHING 20 PER CENT GET A POLICE CAUTION. Such institutionalised leniency sends a message to criminals that they have little to fear from the judicial system, which is precisely why THEY FEEL FREE TO ACT WITH SUCH BRUTAL CONTEMPT TOWARDS THE LAW-ABIDING PUBLIC. INDEED, IF THE BURGLAR OF MY HOME IS UNDER 18 HE WILL PROBABLY BE REWARDED FOR HIS CRIME, SINCE THE POLITICALLY CORRECT ATTITUDE AMONG MANY YOUTH WORKERS IS THAT JUVENILE DELINQUENTS ARE VICTIMS OF SOCIETY WHO NEED CONSTANT SUPPORT RATHER THAN PUNISHMENT.

YOUNG OFFENDERS INSTITUTIONS ARE LIKE WELL-EQUIPPED HOLIDAY CENTRES COMPLETE WITH GYMS, POOL TABLES, MUSIC STUDIOS, COMPUTER GAMES AND CAFETERIA. THERE IS NO ETHOS OF DISCIPLINE OR OBEDIENCE OF AUTHORITY.

I recently interviewed a trainee youth worker in utter despair about the 'surrender' to criminality. 'Even the worst behaviour is rarely challenged. Reprimands are almost unknown. When a teenager breaches the conditions of his sentence action is hardly ever taken,' he told me.

In one ludicrous case this trainee was given the task of chauffeuring a 16-year-old jobless Albanian gypsy, whose entire family had been involved in violent muggings and burglary, to the local social security office where he signed on for a range of benefits for himself and his pregnant girlfriend.

The theory behind this pathetic manoeuvre was to steer the young Albanian away from crime by lavishing him with welfare payments. But it didn’t work. As my interviewee admitted, the Albanian treated the cash as pocket money on top of his illegal earnings.

The whole British legal system is an expensive charade. It is geared entirely towards the so-called rights of offenders and against the interests of society or the victims of crime. That imbalance was graphically illustrated during the trial of Levi Bellfield, the monstrous killer of teenager Milly Dowler.

In a complete inversion of justice Milly’s parents were subjected to judicial torture by Bellfield’s defence team as if they were on trial, their private lives held up to brutish scrutiny, their capabilities as parents questioned.
Yet Bellfield himself avoided the same kind of interrogation by refusing to go into the witness box. What made this savage farce all the more offensive was that, through legal aid, we all had to underwrite Bellfield’s lawyers whose attacks on the Dowler family arguably had little to do with the murder charges.

THE STATE HAS BROKEN ITS CONTRACT WITH THE LAW-ABIDING MAJORITY OF THE BRITISH PUBLIC. We pay our taxes for our society to be protected from criminal menace. Yet THROUGH A MIX OF LEFT-WING IDEOLOGY AND WARPED PRIORITIES THE STATE HAS ENDED UP IN THE BIZARRE POSITION OF PROTECTING SOCIETY’S ENEMIES. The culture of human rights is nothing more than a criminals’ charter while short sentences, early release of convicts and soft prison regimes have shattered confidence in the judiciary…

Yesterday in another symbol of the state’s appeasement of criminality the Ministry of Justice revealed £10million has been paid in compensation to prisoners over the past five years, most in relation to trivial grievances. Any nation with moral self-confidence would not give a penny in compensation to convicts who have chosen to abnegate their rights through their own conduct.

The Tories promised that they would be robust on law and order after more than a decade of vacillating Labour rule.. They have dismally failed to live up to that pledge… THE HUMAN RIGHTS CULTURE REMAINS INTACT.”

“Runaway migration will drive the UK population above 70million in 15 years – three years earlier than previously predicted. In 2009 official estimates predicted it would take 20 years to reach this landmark level, a figure the Prime Minister has said the nation must not reach.

But the latest calculation suggests it could hit 70.4million in 2026, placing huge pressure on public services and housing…. It assumes net migration - the difference between numbers arriving and leaving - remained around its current record level of 240,000 a year.”

“Twitter enjoyed its highest-ever UK audience last month, with 6.1 million British people visiting the site, up 34 per cent on April’s figures, says Nielsen-UKOM, a UK online measurement company.
Twitter’s monthly audience boost was helped by a 65 per cent increase in the number of over 50s-men, aged between 50 to 64, accessing the site, and a doubling in the number of female pensioners (the over-65’s) going to Twitter.com to see the latest in the super-injunction row.

Both LinkedIn and Facebook also enjoyed record audience figures last month, also driven by a surge in their popularity amongst the over-50s age group.
During May 2011, 26.8 million Britons visited Facebook, which is the highest ever audience figure the social network has attracted in the UK, propelling it for the first time above MSN, Microsoft’s news and email hub, making it the second most popular site in the country behind Google.

According to the Nielsen-UKOM figures, LinkedIn registered 3.6 million visits during May 2011, up 57 per cent on the same month last year.

James Smythe, Nielsen-UKOM’s general manager, said: “The growth in audiences to these social networks is now primarily being driven by the 50-plus age group. Just a few years ago, this group may have found itself out of place on these sites; now, on Facebook, for example, they account for more new adults visiting the site in the last two years than the under-50s.”

“Prisoners have won more than £10 million in compensation over the last five years, figures show. A total of £10,125,845 was handed to inmates who claimed they suffered harm inside the prison system in the last five financial years.

Two payments to prisoners of more than £100,000 have been made in the last year alone as part of almost £1.6 million in settled claims, figures released to the Press Association under freedom of information laws showed. But the £1,575,032 paid out in 2010/11 was less than half the £3,286,521 handed out in 2009/10, when the total was boosted by £1.6 million in payouts for medical negligence cases alone.
The Ministry of Justice figures showed the highest payout last year was £125,000, followed by payments of £100,000, £95,000 and £62,867 - all for personal injury cases.

Three prisoners were also given £25,000 each for ‘false imprisonment’, A further 280 offenders won payouts of less than £10,000, with many of the smaller claims relating to delays in processing release papers, which can lead to prisoners spending too long behind bars.

The figures showed that a total of £1,669,312 was paid out in 2008/09, £1,452,309 in 2007/08 and £2,142,671 in 2006/07.”

“As Dave ‘does the talking’, war dead are sneaked out of the back gate The flag-wrapped coffins of dead servicemen are to be driven out of the back gate of RAF Brize Norton when it takes over from Lyneham (a few weeks from now) as the arrival point for the fallen.

They will then be routed down side roads to avoid nearby Carterton – a town almost exactly the same size as Wootton Bassett – and make their way to the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford along A-roads and bypasses. There’ll be a small guard of honour near the hospital entrance (there already is) but somehow or other the cortege won’t go down any High Streets.

I will tell you in a moment what the official excuses are for this. I should have thought the mere words ‘back gate’ would tell most people all they need to know about this decision. And despite the Prime Minister’s oily award of the title ‘Royal’ to Wootton Bassett, you can bet that he’d much rather the public scenes of grief and remembrance in that place had never happened, and that nobody noticed the frequent deaths his weakness and political cowardice are causing.

In the same way, the Defence Ministry has almost completely succeeded in covering up the appalling numbers of men who have been gravely injured in Afghanistan because the Government hasn’t the guts to quit this meaningless war. We hardly ever see them. Were they all to be assembled in one photograph, the nation would demand instant withdrawal and probably get it.

The official version is that the families of the dead will be using a new ‘Repatriation Centre’ at Brize Norton, and that it is near the back gate. Routing the hearses through the base might disrupt its normal operations.
And here’s what was said by Andrew Robathan, whose stirring title is ‘Minister for Defence Personnel, Welfare and Veterans’. Speaking to Radio Oxford, he explained: ‘The side gate was seen by the Ministry of Defence and the police as the most appropriate way to take out future corteges.’

I love that word ‘appropriate’, the favourite adjective of those who have quietly forsaken the idea that there are such things as ‘right’ and ‘wrong’. He continued: ‘I am not sure taking coffins in hearses past schools, past families, past married quarters is necessarily the thing that everybody would wish to see… the focus must be on the families of the dead service personnel. They are the people who care most. That is where our focus is.’

This is a curious statement. None of us exactly ‘wishes’ to see a funeral going by. But surely death should not be hidden away. And surely it is right that all of us – especially the young and service families – should be reminded of the price of courage and duty, and given the opportunity to salute these fine things.
You can believe the various official excuses. Or you might recall that until (in April 2008) this newspaper highlighted the way the hearses were left to fight their way through indifferent traffic, even cut up by impatient motorists at roundabouts, they did not get a police escort for the final few miles to the hospital.
Mr Cameron says that he will do the talking about war, and the commanders should do the fighting. Well, he may have a point there, or he would if he were not militarily and diplomatically clueless. But he might also mention that WHILE HE IS DOING THE TALKING, REAL MEN ARE DOING THE DYING, AND THEIR FAMILIES ARE DOING THE WEEPING.

Personally, I don’t think he or his Government colleagues are grown-up enough to pay the price of their own vanity and bombast. So THEY SNEAK THE DEAD OUT BY THE BACK GATE, AND HOPE IT DOESN’T GET ON THE TV.”

Peter Hitchens - The Daily Mail – 26 June 2011.


On 26 June 2011, The Daily Mail quoted thus from a strategy document written by Christopher Shale, David Cameron's constituency Chairman.

“THERE'S ABSOLUTELY NO REASON TO JOIN THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY... NO REASON TO JOIN. LOTS OF REASONS NOT TO... COLLECTIVELY WE ARE NOT ALWAYS AN APPEALING ...

OVER THE YEARS WE HAVE COME ACROSS AS GRACELESS, VORACIOUS, CRASS, ALWAYS ON THE TAKE...

We are not always a group of people to whom many of our potential members are going to be magnetically drawn... When we come together as a group we sometimes morph into something different, less attractive. Our environment alters us. We must look different – when we communicate, when we’re together...

WE MUST BEHAVE DIFFERENTLY – TRY TO SEE OURSELVES AS OTHERS SEE US."

Shale concludes that people aren't joining the Tory party because "they think we’ll beg and steal from them. And they’re right."

The Mail on Sunday added:

"UNDER CAMERON’S LEADERSHIP TORY MEMBERSHIP NATIONALLY APPEARS TO HAVE FALLEN BY ABOUT A THIRD, FROM 259,000 TO 177,000. At the same time, local associations have seen their power to select candidates decline dramatically… If the Prime Minister’s own association can add only 20-odd members in the year its MP enters Downing Street, what hope is there for other local parties?”

On the morning that the above article was published, Christopher Shale was found dead in a toilet cubicle at the Glastonbury festival.


According to research undertaken by BritainThinks and published by The Independent on Sunday on 26 June 2011:

"WORKING CLASS USED TO BE A CHOICE – WORK WITH YOUR HANDS, DO AN HONEST DAY'S WORK, BE UNPRETENTIOUS, PLAY FOOTBALL. NOW WORKING CLASS TENDS TO JUST MEAN POOR."

The Independent on Sunday added:

"The survey paints an alarming picture of A GROUP THAT FEELS DISENFRANCHISED, ISOLATED AND THREATENED ON ALL SIDES. When asked to identify their social class, ONLY 24 PER CENT OF PEOPLE CHOSE TO SAY WORKING CLASS, COMPARED WITH 67 PER CENT IN THE LATE 1980S...

Today's report used focus groups in Rotherham and Basildon to probe the attitudes of the modern working class. It concludes that most working-class people feel under siege, ‘BROUGHT DOWN BY THE WORKSHY UNDERCLASS AND UNDERCUT BY IMMIGRANTS’...

Old assumptions about working-class solidarity no longer apply. The survey finds that the middle classes are more likely to feel part of a community, and that WORKING-CLASS RESPONDENTS ARE MORE LIKELY TO FEEL LONELY, UNHAPPY AND PESSIMISTIC.
In the focus groups, people felt that being called working class was close to an insult, associating them with the ‘chav’ class who choose to live on benefits. The use of the term ‘chav’ has been described as part of the ‘demonisation of the working class’ by Owen Jones, but the study shows that the working classes use it themselves to disown the workshy.

The term working class ‘used to be a badge of pride, but not any more for most people who still call themselves working class’, said Deborah Mattinson, founder of BritainThinks.

The survey suggests that the working classes have lost out from politicians' emphasis on ‘aspiration’ in recent decades, with the assumption that everyone should want a middle-class life. John Major's aim of a ‘classless society’ in 1990 and Tony Blair's declaration that ‘the class war is over’ in 1999 seem to have cut the traditional working class out of politics.

Working-class participants in the focus groups described politicians as ‘middle-class rich kids.’ Labour are ‘champagne socialists,’ the Conservatives are ‘just the same but in a different colour suit,’ and the Liberal Democrats would ‘say anything to get into power’…

Changes in the labour market are seen as having undermined working-class solidarity. Although some said it was a good thing the mines had closed, many regretted the passing of powerful trade unions to defend their interests.

‘There aren't any unions now,’ said a focus group member. ‘They don't do anything now anyway.’ Another said: ‘No one stands up for each other; now if you get the sack you get the sack.’

Immigration, especially from central Europe, is blamed for depressing wages.
‘There are no unions any more because there are too many foreigners in the country now. They work for pennies. It's killing the British workforce.’ Looking at a photograph of a miner, Steve said:

‘IF HE'S POLISH, HE'S DEFINITELY 90 PER CENT OF THE PEOPLE I WORK WITH’.”



On 25 June 2011, Iain Martin told us this in The Daily Mail:

“IT SPEAKS VOLUMES THAT VOTERS’ CONCERNS ABOUT IMMIGRATION SHOULD COME AS A REVELATION TO SOME IN NO 10, WHEN FOR YEARS IT HAS BEEN OBVIOUS TO MILLIONS OUTSIDE THE WESTMINSTER VILLAGE THAT BRITAIN’S LOSS OF CONTROL OF ITS BORDERS HAS BEEN A DISASTER OF HISTORIC PROPORTIONS.

LABOUR’S CRIMINALLY RECKLESS OPEN-DOOR POLICY HAS MEANT MORE THAN 5.2MILLION IMMIGRANTS ARRIVING ON OUR SHORES SINCE 1997. When the departures of those moving abroad are taken into account, it has left the foreign-born population in the UK an incredible 3.2million higher. Future historians will be astonished that a once-great country subjected itself to such a sudden and socially unsustainable rise in population.

And what is worrying Downing Street is whether they can do anything about it. Under pressure from Tory MPs to say something about immigration in the run-up to the election, CAMERON COMMITTED HIMSELF TO REDUCING NET MIGRATION TO THE ‘TENS OF THOUSANDS’. BUT IT IS BECOMING HORRIFYINGLY CLEAR THAT CAMERON WILL NOT MANAGE TO GET IMMIGRATION BELOW EVEN 100,000 A YEAR AT THE PRESENT RATE OF PROGRESS.

The Migration Observatory at Oxford University calculated this week that around 165,000 immigrants will still be arriving every year come 2015. The latest figures for the year to last September showed immigration actually going up, with 242,000 net arrivals…

At the current astonishing rates of growth, the independent Office for National Statistics now estimates that the British population will rise from 61.8million today to more than 70million in 2026 — three YEARS EARLIER THAN IT HAS HITHERTO FORECAST. And a staggering 68per cent of the rise will be attributable to immigration. To put that in perspective, IT IS THE EQUIVALENT OF ADDING EIGHT CITIES THE SIZE OF BIRMINGHAM TO THE UK IN JUST 15 YEARS. OUR LEADERS HAVE NO IDEA WHERE ALL THESE NEW CITIZENS ARE GOING TO BE HOUSED NOR HOW THE ALREADY FAILING SCHOOL SYSTEM AND STRUGGLING NHS ARE GOING TO COPE WITH THEM. Already, as we heard this week, A MILLION CHILDREN IN BRITISH SCHOOLS HAVE ENGLISH AS THEIR SECOND LANGUAGE.

Inside Government, this is all causing something approaching panic. One worried minister described immigration to me as ‘the iceberg’ that could eventually sink the Government. There is also mounting concern that the welfare reforms simply won’t work if immigration continues at its current pace.

Work and Pensions Secretary Iain Duncan Smith is implementing a programme to get some of the five million on benefits fit for work, but HE IS WORRIED THAT MIGRATION COULD RENDER IT LARGELY INEFFECTIVE.

Unsurprisingly, many businesses prefer to employ ambitious, hardworking incomers rather than long-term unemployed Britons. This has meant that NINE OUT OF TEN NEW JOBS GO TO MIGRANTS.

If the flow of fresh arrivals continues, the fear is that BOSSES WILL CONTINUE TO CHOOSE THEM RATHER THAN HELP GET BRITONS OFF BENEFITS.”


“A government minister believes A COMBINATION OF POLITICAL CORRECTNESS AND RACIAL SENSITIVITIES HAVE KEPT MANY CASES OF CHILD SEX GROOMING ‘UNDER THE RADAR’. Children's Minister, Tim Loughton, claims that ‘closed communities’ have sometimes hampered investigations into child sexual exploitation’. Mr Loughton acknowledged that child grooming was not a problem exclusively associated with one particular community, but added:

‘I think that POLITICAL CORRECTNESS AND RACIAL SENSITIVITIES HAVE IN THE PAST BEEN AN ISSUE. I want to send out a message loud and clear that although we have to be aware of certain characteristics of various ethnic communities and be sensitive as to how we deal with them, A BME (BLACK MINORITY ETHNIC) TAG IS NOT AN EXCUSE FOR US NOT TO INVESTIGATE VIGOROUSLY ANY ABUSE THAT MAY BE GOING ON.’

Earlier this year, the former Home Secretary Jack Straw was criticised after he suggested that some men of Pakistani origin saw white girls as ‘easy meat’. Lord Ahmed said:

'I HAVE BEEN CRITICISED BY MY OWN COMMUNITY BECAUSE I STARTED TALKING ABOUT IT… THERE IS A SMALL MINORITY INVOLVED IN DRUG RELATED CRIME AND THIS HEINOUS CRIME OF MESSING WITH YOUNG GIRLS IS OUTRAGEOUS."

“HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF OLDER PEOPLE ARE BEING PUT AT INCREASED RISK OF DEATH OR DEVELOPING DEMENTIA BY TAKING COMBINATIONS OF COMMON MEDICINES TO TREAT ROUTINE ILLNESSes, according to a new study. Well-known brands of hay fever tablets, painkillers and sleeping pills pose a previously unknown threat to people’s health when taken together, British scientists claim. Many are available over the counter at pharmacies as well as being prescribed by GPs, nurses and chemists.

Today the scientists behind the study call for doctors to recognise how dangerous these drug combinations can be and to prescribe harmless alternatives instead… The most dangerous included the antihistamines chlorphenamine (used in the brand Piriton) and promethazine (used in Phenergan), the anti-depressant paroxetine (used in Seroxat) and the incontinence drug oxybutynin (used in Ditropan).

The heartburn drug ranitidine (used in Zantac), beta blocker Atenolol, the painkiller codeine and some eye drops were among the drugs in the mildest category.

Low-risk drugs were graded one point while high-risk drugs were graded three. THE STUDY FOUND THAT PATIENTS WHO TOOK A COMBINATION OF DRUGS THAT ADDED UP TO FOUR POINTS OR MORE — SUCH AS A HIGH-RISK ANTIHISTAMINE COMBINED WITH LOW-RISK EYE DROPS HAD A 20 PER CENT CHANCE OF DYING WITHIN TWO YEARS...

The risk of dying increased by a further 25 per cent for each additional point accumulated, the study published in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, concluded.”

“SEVEN OUT OF 10 VOTERS WANT BRITAIN’S SPENDING ON FOREIGN AID FROZEN OR SLASHED AND 43 PER CENT WANT TO SCRAP IT ENTIRELY, a new poll reveals.

DAVID CAMERON HAS VOWED TO INCREASE BRITAIN’S FOREIGN AID BUDGET TO MORE THAN £12BILLION BY 2013 WHILE ORDERING MOST OTHER GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENTS TO MAKE DRASTIC SPENDING CUTS.

But 69 per cent support freezing the budget at its current level of £8.4billion a year, saving £3.7billion, according to the YouGov/TaxPayers’ Alliance survey. The poll also reveals support for cutting spending on the controversial high-speed rail project, trade union funding and a Green Investment bank.

Results found that 48 per cent support cancelling the high-speed rail link between London and Birmingham, Leeds and Manchester – a saving of £30billion. And 51 per cent would like to save £67.5million by stopping the practice of paying full-time trade union organisers in large public sector organisations.”

“The troubled Equality and Human Rights Commission has been criticised FOR OVERPAYING STAFF.

The National Audit Office found THE EQUALITIES AND HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION (EHRC) HAD BREACHED GOVERNMENT PAY GUIDELINES BY £570,000. The disclosures came as auditors refused to sign off the EHRC’s accounts for for the third year in succession.

They criticised the quango for ‘irregular expenditure’ – and found it had spent more than £1.5 million of taxpayers’ money without authorisation."

“MORE THAN A QUARTER OF PRIMARY SCHOOL CHILDREN ARE FROM AN ETHNIC MINORITY – AN INCREASE OF ALMOST HALF A MILLION SINCE 1997.

The Government’s annual school census painted a picture of a changing Britain where schools are under mounting pressure from mass immigration.

IN SOME AREAS, ONLY 8 PER CENT OF PRIMARY PUPILS ARE FROM A WHITE BRITISH BACKGROUND. NEARLY ONE MILLION CHILDREN AGED FIVE TO 16 – 957,490 – SPEAK ENGLISH AS A SECOND LANGUAGE, UP FROM ALMOST 800,000 FIVE YEARS AGO.”

“A militant union boss bidding to cripple Britain's schools next week has quietly pocketed a 10 per cent pay rise. CHRISTINE BLOWER, THE LEADER OF THE NATIONAL UNION OF TEACHERS, WAS ACCUSED OF 'BREATHTAKING INSENSITIVITY' FOR TAKING THE INFLATION-BUSTING RISE WHILE TENS OF THOUSANDS OF HER OWN MEMBERS BRACE THEMSELVES FOR A PAY FREEZE. Miss Blower, 59, is leading a strike which aims to cripple Britain’s 23,000 state schools next week as part of the growing wave of public  sector militancy over pension reforms.

Millions of children will be affected by the June 30 walkout and many parents will have to take a day off or pay for extra childcare.

Miss Blower's basic pay rose by almost £9,000 to £103,000, while her package of pay and benefits increased by more than £13,000 to £140,000 – up 10.4 per cent. THE INCREASE IS MORE THAN DOUBLE THE RATE OF INFLATION AND FOUR TIMES THE 2.3 PER CENT RECEIVED BY CLASSROOM TEACHERS LAST YEAR.”

“FOREIGN CRIMINALS HAVE MORE PROTECTION UNDER THE UK’S HUMAN RIGHTS LAWS THAN INNOCENT BRITONS FIGHTING EXTRADITION, a committee of MPs warned. Offenders fighting deportation are able to use human rights defences to avoid removal whereas Britons facing transfer under extradition laws find it almost impossible to do so, the joint committee on human rights suggested. It means the likes of alleged computer hacker Gary McKinnon, who is fighting extradition to the US, has fewer rights than foreigners who have committed crimes in the UK and should now be deported…

The contrast in the rights of Britons accused of crimes and foreign convicts is at its starkest in extradition cases within Europe. UNDER THE EUROPEAN ARREST WARRANT SYSTEM, COUNTRIES SIGNED UP TO IT, LIKE THE UK, HAVE A ‘MUTUAL RECOGNITION’ THAT OTHER MEMBERS HAVE AN APPROPRIATE JUDICIAL SYSTEM. THAT MEANS THOSE FACING EXTRADITION UNDER IT FIND IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO ARGUE THEY ARE AT RISK OF HUMAN RIGHTS ABUSES. IN CONTRAST, FOREIGN CRIMINALS WHO ARE FACING DEPORTATION DO NOT FALL UNDER A SIMILAR SYSTEM AND ARE OFTEN ABLE TO ARGUE THEIR REMOVAL WILL BREACH THEIR RIGHT TO A FAMILY LIFE OR THAT THEY FACE TORTURE OR ABUSE ON THEIR RETURN.

Dominic Raab, Tory MP and member of the committee, said: ‘A PERVERSE COMBINATION OF EU LAW AND THE HUMAN RIGHTS ACT HAS LEFT INNOCENT BRITISH CITIZENS WITH LESS HUMAN RIGHTS PROTECTIONS THAN FOREIGN NATIONAL CRIMINALS.’

Satisfaction and confidence in the justice system drops after people come into contact with crime, the research concluded. MORE THAN HALF OF THE PUBLIC OVERALL DO NOT BELIEVE THE POLICE ARE DOING A GOOD JOB, it found.

The wide-ranging audit also warned that JUST ONE IN EIGHT CRIMES ARE SOLVED while three in five people do believe the criminal justice system is effective. TWO THIRDS OF THE PUBLIC SAID VICTIMS ARE FAILED BY THE SYSTEM WHILE EIGHT IN TEN SAID THE RIGHTS OF CRIMINALS ARE PROTECTED.”

“THE BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS OF BRITAIN’S ELDERLY POPULATION ARE BEING ‘NEGLECTED’ BY COUNCILS PROVIDING APPALLING STANDARDS OF HOME CARE, an official investigation has found. OLDER PEOPLE HAVE BEEN LEFT IN BED FOR 17 HOURS AT A TIME, UNDRESSED IN FRONT OF WINDOWS IN OPEN VIEW OF NEIGHBOURS, AND ABANDONED IN SOILED BEDS AND CLOTHES.

“Judges have made an unprecedented attack on the ‘WHOLLY ABUSIVE’ WAY THAT IMMIGRANTS ARE EXPLOITING THE BRITISH LEGAL SYSTEM.

The Judges Council said that, for some types of appeal, A STAGGERING 85 PER CENT OF CASES DID NOT HAVE ANY ‘MERIT’. They have either been ‘DREAMT UP’ BY LAWYERS SEEKING TO LINE THEIR OWN POCKETS, OR ARE A BLATANT LAST-DITCH ATTEMPT TO STOP DEPORTATIONS TAKING PLACE. Many – including appeals made by foreign criminals – are brought under the controversial Article 8 of LABOUR’S HUMAN RIGHTS ACT – the ‘right to a family and private life’.

And despite the rampant exploitation of the system, the taxpayer is writing legal cheques worth £12million a year for immigration cases. Effectively – and farcically – THE BRITISH GOVERNMENT IS PICKING UP THE BILL FOR THE THWARTING OF ITS OWN ATTEMPTS TO CONTROL IMMIGRATION.”

“CELIBATE GAY MEN IN CIVIL PARTNERSHIPS COULD BE ORDAINED AS CHURCH OF ENGLAND BISHOPS. A guidance paper has been sent out ahead of a meeting of the General Synod next month, giving advice in light of the Equality Act.

This forbids employers from discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation, but allows for a ‘genuine occupational requirement’ to be imposed.

The guidance paper says that while ‘a person’s sexual orientation is, in itself, irrelevant to their suitability for episcopal office or indeed ordained ministry’, candidates can be required to be celibate.”

“In the first year of the Coalition, 87 PER CENT OF THE 400,000 NEWLY CREATED JOBS HAVE GONE TO IMMIGRANTS… according to new official figures uncovered by the Labour MP. Under previous Labour administrations the figure was about 80 per cent...

It is the great paradox of welfare. When Tony Blair won the 1997 election, the total number of benefit claimants of working age stood at 5.7million. When Gordon Brown went to the country in 2010, the level was the same — EVEN THOUGH MORE THAN THREE MILLION JOBS HAD BEEN CREATED UNDER LABOUR.

The problem was that, OF THOSE NEW JOBS, 80 PER CENT WENT TO IMMIGRANT WORKERS. AND NOW, THE SAME DISTURBING PATTERN IS MORE MARKED... I fear that, at the next election, we will still be having the same debate on welfare reform as we had at the last four.”

“Muslim leaders are planning to break away from the Scottish education system and create their own schools because the current curriculum does not include enough about Islam.

The Sunday Express has learned parents are angry their children are not being given schooling according to their religious beliefs and claim teachers are even promoting ‘unIslamic principles and behaviours’. Some have even threatened legal action to force councils to open state-funded faith schools at taxpayers’ expense.”

“Foreign students are flooding into British universities because they have better English than our teenagers. Unlike British youngsters, when European children are taught English they are not allowed to use slang or colloquial words. Last year 25,607 EU undergraduates were awarded places at UK universities with those accepted at 20 of the most sought-after institutions increasing by nearly 30 per cent over the past three years...

EU pupils have studied a wider range of subjects than British pupils, including at least two foreign languages, maths, a science, humanity and arts subject. They also must have either history or geography, do a philosophy-style course and a 4,000-word academic paper up to university standard.”

“Muslims are integrating into British society better than many Christians, according to the head of the Government's equality watchdog. Trevor Phillips warned that ‘an old time religion incompatible with modern society’ is driving the revival in the Anglican and Catholic Churches and clashing with mainstream views, especially on homosexuality. He accused Christians, particularly evangelicals, of being more militant than Muslims in complaining about discrimination, arguing that many of the claims are motivated by a desire for greater political influence…

‘I think there's an awful lot of noise about the Church being persecuted but THERE IS A MORE REAL ISSUE THAT THE CONVENTIONAL CHURCHES FACE THAT THE PEOPLE WHO ARE REALLY DRIVING THEIR REVIVAL AND SUCCESS BELIEVE IN AN OLD TIME RELIGION WHICH IN MY VIEW IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH A MODERN, MULTI-ETHNIC, MULTICULTURAL SOCIETY…

Muslim communities in this country are doing their damnedest to try to come to terms with their neighbours to try to integrate and they're doing their best to try to develop an idea of Islam that is compatible with living in a modern liberal democracy.

The most likely victim of actual religious discrimination in British society is a Muslim but the person who is most likely to feel slighted because of their religion is an evangelical Christian."

“HUMAN RIGHTS LAW IS DEMOLISHING EVERY ASPECT OF BRITAIN’S IMMIGRATION CONTROLS, GOVERNMENT PAPERS REVEAL. EVERY YEAR, MORE THAN 3,200 FOREIGN CRIMINALS, FAILED ASYLUM SEEKERS AND EU ‘BENEFIT TOURISTS’ ARE USING LABOUR’S HUMAN RIGHTS ACT TO THWART HOME OFFICE ATTEMPTS TO REMOVE MIGRANTS – OR STOP THEM ARRIVING IN THE FIRST PLACE.

The majority of cases are using the controversial Article 8, ‘the right to a private or family life’. In the cases of almost 1,200 EU citizens, they had no intention of working but were allowed to stay, potentially to enjoy a life on benefits – because they have a wife, girlfriend or children here.”

“Had he not conspired to wreck the economy and lower standards in the nation's schools, there would be something almost laughable about Ed Balls. Yet somehow he managed to keep a straight face yesterday when he delivered the astonishing line that: 'Trying to blame the deficit on Labour's supposed wasteful public spending and fiscal profligacy won't work because it is a work of total fiction.'

Really? When Labour came to power, the UK owed £350billion. By the time the last government's unprecedented spending binge on the public sector was over, the national debt was £900billion – and on course to reach a ruinous £1.4trillion by 2015.”

“Poor children in Britain are more likely to be condemned to educational failure than in most other developed nations… In a damning indictment of Labour’s legacy, it emerged that deprived pupils in countries such as Estonia, Indonesia, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Mexico and Slovenia perform better than those from Britain.

Data from the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development shows some 31 per cent of poor children internationally manage to exceed expectations for their social class in school tests. But in Britain, the proportion slumps to just a quarter – placing the country below the global average and 39th out of 65 countries.

It suggests DISADVANTAGED CHILDREN IN ENGLAND, SCOTLAND, WALES AND NORTHERN IRELAND HAVE LESS CHANCE OF CLIMBING THE SOCIAL LADDER THAN IN THE MAJORITY OF DEVELOPED NATIONS.”

Backing David Cameron's health reforms, Mr Blair told The Sun that Mr Miliband needs to remain forward-looking. He added that declaring an end to the New Labour era was a mistake. 'Look, when I became Labour leader the party had never won two consecutive full terms in office,' he said. 'The longest Labour had been in power was six years, right?'”

Employment Minister Chris Grayling confessed to being ‘surprised to discover’ that WELFARE HAND-OUTS TO NEWCOMERS FROM EASTERN EUROPE AND OTHER PARTS OF THE EU WERE NOT RECORDED BY CIVIL SERVANTS IN HIS WHITEHALL DEPARTMENT. But the lack of information about the total figure, which includes child benefit for youngsters in the immigrants’ home countries, was condemned as a ‘scandal’ by critics.

“He was notoriously reluctant to discuss religion while Prime Minister, with his chief spin doctor Alastair Campbell famously commenting: ‘We don’t do God.’ But since leaving Downing Street in 2007, Tony Blair has become increasingly open about the importance of religion.

MR BLAIR, WHO CONVERTED TO CATHOLICISM MONTHS AFTER LEAVING NUMBER 10, HAS NOW SPOKEN OF HOW HE READS THE KORAN EVERY DAY. Reading the Islamic religion’s holy book - considered by Muslims to be the exact words of God - ensured he remained ‘faith-literate’, the former Labour leader said.

In an interview with the Observer magazine, published yesterday he said: ‘TO BE FAITH-LITERATE IS CRUCIAL IN A GLOBALISED WORLD, I believe.

‘I READ THE KORAN EVERY DAY. Partly to understand some of the things happening in the world, but mainly just because IT IS IMMENSELY INSTRUCTIVE.’

Mr Blair believes that a knowledge of the faith informs his current role as Middle East envoy for the Quartet of the United Nations, United States, European Union and Russia.

The former PM’s work, which has cost British taxpayers more than £2million, aims to help resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Mr Blair has previously praised the Muslim faith as ‘beautiful’ and said the Prophet Mohammed had been ‘an enormously civilizing force’.

IN 2006 HE SAID THE KORAN WAS A ‘REFORMING BOOK, IT IS INCLUSIVE. It extols science and knowledge and abhors superstition. IT IS PRACTICAL AND WAY AHEAD OF ITS TIME IN ATTITUDES TO MARRIAGE, WOMEN AND GOVERNANCE’.”

“THE NATION STATE IS THE GREATEST VEHICLE EVER INVENTED BY MANKIND FOR THE PROMOTION OF DEMOCRACY AND PROSPERITY. That is because it is essentially an extension of the family with citizens enjoying a shared sense of belonging, unity and heritage.

THE TRAGEDY OF MODERN BRITAIN IS THAT OUR TRADITIONAL IDENTITY IS UNDER REMORSELESS POLITICAL ATTACK. MASS IMMIGRATION, THE DOGMA OF MULTICULTURALISM AND THE GROWING POWER OF THE EUROPEAN UNION HAVE CONSPIRED TO UNDERMINE OUR BRITISH NATIONHOOD. OUR ONCE UNIFIED COUNTRY IS IN DANGER OF BECOMING NOTHING MORE THAN A LAND MASS FILLED WITH DISPARATE PEOPLES.

Despite the opposition of the vast majority of the British public the transformation of our society appears to be gathering pace.

In the year to March 2011 NO FEWER THAN 586,000 IMMIGRANTS WERE GRANTED ENTRY, THE VAST MAJORITY FROM ASIA AND AFRICA. IT WAS BY FAR THE HIGHEST TOTAL IN OUR HISTORY, MORE THAN 10 TIMES THE AVERAGE LEVEL OF IMMIGRATION IN THE EIGHTIES…

According to figures released last week 203,600 BRITISH PASSPORTS WERE DISHED OUT TO IMMIGRANTS, A 57 PER CENT INCREASE ON THE FIGURE FOR 2008...

Earlier this month a Parliamentary committee revealed that THE HOME OFFICE HAD EFFECTIVELY GRANTED AN AMNESTY TO 160,000 BOGUS REFUGEES, ALLOWING THEM TO SETTLE HERE PERMANENTLY AND CLAIM BENEFITS… It has been reported that more than 100 serious foreign criminals last year exploited human rights laws to escape deportation.

Among those allowed to remain here is A VIOLENT DRUG DEALER FROM TRINIDAD, A NEPALESE KILLER AND A BOLIVIAN WHOM JUDGES DECIDED COULD NOT BE SENT HOME BECAUSE HE HAD BOUGHT HIMSELF A PET CAT…

There will soon be a vast new influx of arrivals from Bulgaria and Romania once the citizens of those two member states are allowed to travel and settle anywhere in Europe without restrictions, as the Brussels Parliament recommended last week. Even worse more than 70million Turkish Muslims will have the right to come to Britain if Turkey is granted EU membership, as the coalition wants.

WHAT WE ARE WITNESSING IS A GROTESQUE FORM OF ASSISTED NATIONAL SUICIDE. IN THE BRAVE NEW WORLD OF UNCONTROLLED IMMIGRATION AND EU RULE THE VERY CONCEPT OF BRITISHNESS IS AN IRRELEVANCE. All solidarity disappears, replaced by bewilderment and distrust.

All around us we can see the dire consequences of the immigration free-for-all, whether it be the spread of SHARIA LAW OR THE PREVALENCE OF VIOLENT GANGS IN OUR INNER CITIES OR THE RISE OF ISLAMIC EXTREMISM.

It is a bizarre irony that IN THE NAME OF LIBERAL TOLERANCE TOWARDS IMMIGRATION WE ARE NOW IMPORTING A NEW KIND OF GROSS INTOLERANCE WHICH IS UTTERLY INIMICAL TO BRITISH VALUES. In the East London borough of Tower Hamlets, for instance, where there is a large Muslim population, gangs of zealots now roam the streets posing as a self-appointed moral police, demanding that women wear the veil and that gay pubs be closed.

MASS IMMIGRATION HAS ALSO MEANT THE DESTRUCTION OF THE SOCIAL CONTRACT ON WHICH THE BENEFITS SYSTEM, THE NHS AND MANY OF OUR PUBLIC SERVICES ARE BASED. The founding principle was one of reciprocity: people would be provided with welfare, education or healthcare in return for their contributions to British society through tax, national insurance, work or caring for others. But now THAT ETHIC HAS BEEN SHATTERED. WE ARE NOW FORCED TO SUPPORT MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO CONNECTION TO BRITAIN, SUCH AS THE 12-STRONG ETHIOPIAN FAMILY RECENTLY GIVEN A HUGE HOUSE IN EAST LONDON AT A COST TO THE TAXPAYER OF MORE THAN £75,000 A YEAR.

THE POLITICAL ELITE TRIES TO ASSUAGE THE JUSTIFIABLE ANGER OF THE BRITISH BY PEDDLING DECEITFUL PROPAGANDA SUCH AS THE FALSE CLAIM THAT IMMIGRATION HAS BOOSTED OUR ECONOMY. ACTUALLY IT HAS DONE JUST THE OPPOSITE, DRAGGING DOWN WAGES AND IMPOSING A CRIPPLING BURDEN ON OUR INFRASTRUCTURE. AN EVEN GREATER MYTH BELOVED OF THE LEFT IS THAT BRITAIN IS ‘A NATION OF IMMIGRANTS’ SO THERE IS SUPPOSEDLY NOTHING UNIQUE ABOUT THE MODERN INFLUX FROM ASIA AND AFRICA. BUT THIS IS JUST A LIE.

IN FACT BRITAIN WAS UNTIL THE SEVENTIES ONE OF THE MOST HOMOGENOUS NATIONS. Moreover the small numbers that arrived here, such as Irish labourers, or Jewish or French refugees fleeing religious persecution, were steeped in the Judeo-Christian culture that built our civilisation. IT WAS BECAUSE BRITAIN WAS SO HOMOGENOUS THAT IT WAS SO SUCCESSFUL. BUT NOW WE ARE A NATION RIVEN BY ETHNIC DIVISIONS WHERE PATRIOTISM IS REGARDED WITH SUSPICION AND ALL PUBLIC POLICY IS VIEWED THROUGH THE PRISM OF RACE. IN A LAND WHERE THE ONCE UPLIFTING IDEAL OF NATIONAL PRIDE HAS BEEN TRANSMUTED INTO NOTHING MORE THAN XENOPHOBIA DECLINE IS INEVITABLE.”

CAMPAIGNERS SAID ELDERLY PEOPLE WERE BEING LEFT IN CONDITIONS WHICH WOULD NOT BEFIT A DOG, AS SHOCKING FAILINGS BECAME ‘SYSTEMIC’ amid a deepening crisis in the sector.

The disclosure, in a Parliamentary answer, reveals that in total, 1819 HOMES FOR ELDERLY AND DISABLED PEOPLE – ONE IN TEN OF ALL CARE HOMES – ARE NOT MEETING STANDARDS DESIGNED TO PROTECT RESIDENTS FROM THE RISK OF ABUSE.

“Why does the Archbishop of Canterbury speak as if it was obvious that we should treat people who can work, but won’t, in the same way as we treat those who are truly in need?… In St Paul’s first epistle to Timothy, Chapter 5, we read: ‘If any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.’

And in his second epistle to the Thessalonians, St Paul rubs it in, in that way he has: ‘This we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat...

“Most EU politicians, just like most EU policies, lack legitimacy and they know it. So when Tony Blair insisted last week that Europe needs an ‘elected president’, he was giving voice to the deep-seated belief of nearly every official involved in the pan-European political bureaucracy that greater unity is better for everyone. Never mind that ‘the project’ lacks popular support. Even the fact that the voters now voice concerns about (for instance) open borders between members of the EU has no effect whatever on the Eurocrats' conviction that there can only be one direction of travel: towards ever closer union within the EU, AND THEREFORE TOWARDS THE ULTIMATE OBLITERATION OF THE NATION STATE.

What is the basis of this view that the nation state will and must be superseded by European authorities? It boils down to the seemingly innocuous claim made by Mr Blair last week that it is ‘sensible for European nations to combine together and to use their collective weight in order to achieve influence’. The question of how the entity formed by ‘combining together’ comes to have any legitimate political authority over and above that of the nation states which make it up is never answered.

There is one very obvious reason for that deafening silence: INDIVIDUAL NATIONS AND THEIR ELECTED ASSEMBLIES ARE SEEN BY THE PEOPLE OF THOSE NATIONS AS THE ONLY INSTITUTIONS FOR MAKING LAWS THAT THEY THEMSELVES HAVE ENDORSED. Electing a European president will not change this. It will merely give a spurious democratic veneer to the unification project – when, in fact, THE EFFECT WILL BE TO ERODE THE ONLY CONNECTION BETWEEN THE WAY LAWS ARE MADE AND THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE. The legislation that emerges from Brussels has no such connection. But it's what the unifying project has been built on…

'Europe’ has all the trappings that go with a unified defence policy: a defence bureaucracy, a foreign office and a foreign minister. The operation in Libya is endorsed by the EU. But as Robert Gates, the retiring US Secretary of Defence, noted last week, European countries are incapable of organising it. The bombing campaign has ‘required a major augmentation of targeting specialists, mainly from the US, to do the job’. After a campaign lasting 11 weeks, European nations ‘are beginning to run short of munitions, requiring the US, once more, to make up the difference’. That has happened because TOO MANY EUROPEAN COUNTRIES WANT THE BENEFITS OF MILITARY CO-OPERATION BUT AREN'T WILLING TO SHARE ITS RISKS AND COSTS: THEY WANT A FREE RIDE.

This is, in a way, reassuring, because it shows how the unification project founders on the rock of national self-interest. It suggests that at heart, it is nothing more than a way of making Eurocrats feel important. But the tragedy is that THEIR SELF-AGGRANDISEMENT MAY STILL END UP DESTROYING OUR DEMOCRACY.”

"Tony Blair has called for the creation of a directly-elected president of the European Union in what appears to be an extraordinary public job application. The former prime minister suggested that whoever filled the role would be able to strut the world stage, wielding power and influence beyond the wildest dreams of individual member states. Europe is held back by a lack of ‘strong, collective leadership’, he added.

The 58-year-old insisted – in a round of interviews to promote the latest edition of his memoirs – that Britain is now too small to have the ‘weight and influence’ of the past on the world stage unless it was ‘part of that European power as well’.

He said that although the EU was created out of the desire for peace in Europe, its role in the modern world was to project European power and influence. An unelected post of EU president was created by the controversial Lisbon Treaty, which Mr Blair championed. He was the early favourite for the role, but was vetoed by German Chancellor Angela Merkel because of controversy over his involvement in the Iraq war. There were also fears he would upstage other EU leaders.”

“Romanians living in Britain send home nearly £500,000 every day, official figures revealed. A total of £41million left the UK for the Eastern European country over a three-month period, said the Romanian Central Bank. LAST YEAR ALONE, THE ROMANIAN ECONOMY WAS BOOSTED BY £2.5BILLION SENT FROM ABROAD, it added.

The figures for the country’s UK-based nationals for January to March last year include cash transferred between banks or moved by money transfer. If the level was maintained throughout 2010, it would mean more than £160million was sent to Romania from the UK over a year.

That would mean a rise of nearly 50 per cent on the 2009 total of £108million. But the figures do not include informal transfers and unofficial movements of money, including cash moved between friends and relatives. This means the true total could be up to 30 per cent higher. An estimated two million Romanians work abroad, including 60,000 thought to live in the UK. Most live in North London and the South East of England. A further 25,000 each year are given work permits to enter Britain.”

In some parts of the country a quarter of sufferers applying for life-extending treatments were rejected, a major report has found.

“The figures, published by EU statisticians… underline warnings about the UK’s ticking pensions timebomb by showing that the number of people who are 65 and older is set to rocket from 11.8 million to almost 20 million. But NET IMMIGRATION – THE NUMBER ENTERING THE COUNTRY MINUS THOSE LEAVING – WILL STILL BE THE MAIN DRIVER FOR POPULATION GROWTH. The EU statistical office, Eurostat, says MORE THAN HALF THE UK INCREASE – 10 MILLION PEOPLE – WILL BE AS A DIRECT CONSEQUENCE OF IMMIGRATION. The statistics will add to mounting anger over Britain’s open-door immigration policy. According to official figures, 1,440 migrants currently move here every day.

“One in three criminals spared a court appearance should have faced a tougher punishment from a judge or magistrate, inspectors have found… More than a third of the 1.3 million crimes resolved by the police every year result in an ‘out of court disposal’ such as a fixed penalty notice, a caution or a warning, a total of almost 500,000.

In a report published today, the inspectors conclude that around A THIRD OF THOSE CASES SHOULD HAVE BEEN DEALT WITH IN COURT, WHERE MAGISTRATES OR JUDGES COULD IMPOSE LARGER FINES, COMMUNITY SENTENCES OR A JAIL TERM. Those who escaped court proceedings were ‘frequent or serious’ offenders, the inspectors found. A total of 64 of 190 out-of-court disposals reviewed by the inspectors ‘did not appear to comply with the standards set out in the available guidance’. There were also wide variations in the way police and prosecutors dealt with offences across the country, meaning that offenders receive ‘differential treatment depending on where they were found or where they live’.”

"Dr Rowan Williams has launched a sustained attack on the Coalition in the most outspoken political intervention by an Archbishop of Canterbury for a generation. He warns that the public is gripped by ‘fear’ over the Government’s reforms to education, the NHS and the benefits system and accuses David Cameron and Nick Clegg of forcing through ‘radical policies for which no one voted’.

Openly questioning the democratic legitimacy of the Coalition, the Archbishop dismisses the Prime Minister’s ‘Big Society’ as a ‘painfully stale’ slogan, and claims that it is ‘not enough’ for ministers to blame Britain’s economic and social problems on the last Labour government…

Robert Runcie enraged Margaret Thatcher with a series of attacks in the 1980s.”

“Peers are on course to pocket a 40 per cent increase in their expenses as a result of efforts to ‘clean up’ the discredited system. A new £300-a-day flat-rate allowance has seen claims soar, figures showed.

In the first three months of the new system, peers claimed £6million, compared with £17.2million in the whole of last year. If the trend continues, the total bill this year will be more than £24million – an increase of 40 per cent. Last year peers argued that the new system would end the scandal around Lords expenses, which has seen two peers convicted of theft and three others suspended from Parliament…

Under the rules, PEERS SIMPLY HAVE TO SHOW THEIR FACE AT WESTMINSTER TO POCKET THE DAILY ALLOWANCE. NO RECEIPTS ARE REQUIRED AND PEERS DO NOT HAVE TO STAY FOR DEBATE OR VOTES – leading critics to claim they can ‘clock in and clear off’.”

“Hundreds of thousands of pounds of taxpayers’ money earmarked to counter terrorism WAS INSTEAD HANDED TO EXTREMIST GROUPS, it emerged last night. Radical Islamists were bankrolled with money which should have been used to combat their anti-Western ideology, a Government report concluded.

The money was spent as part of the Prevent programme which was funded with hundreds of millions of pounds to try to stop young Muslims from becoming radicalised.

The report also revealed: hundreds of thousands of pounds were wasted on pointless sports clubs or ‘COHESION SCHEMES’. More than 1,100 people were reported to the authorities after displaying extremist sympathies – a quarter of whom were children. THE ASTONISHING SCALE OF ISLAMIC TEACHING OUTSIDE THE MAINSTREAM SCHOOL SYSTEM IN UP TO 2,000 MADRASSAS ATTENDED BY AN ESTIMATED 100,000 CHILDREN…

Here are just a few of the extremist Islamist groups the Government has been funding:

The Muslim Council of Britain (MCB) and related groups were handed £550,985 over a period of three years by the Department of Communities and Local Government. In March 2009 the Government suspended links with the MCB and demanded one of its leaders should be sacked for allegedly supporting violence against Israel.

The Cordoba Foundation, an independent research organisation which advises leading Muslim groups and which was founded by Anas al-Tikriti, former president of the Muslim Association of Britain, has received ‘anti-extremist’ funding.

The group, which David Cameron once described as a front for the extremist Muslim Brotherhood, was given £38,000 by Tower Hamlets council in East London in 2007 for two projects: A Muslim media project and a Muslim debating society which held a debate entitled ‘Has Political Participation Failed British Muslims?’.

Dr Abdul Wahid, the leader of radical group Hizb-ut-Tahrir (an extremist group which refuses to condemn suicide bombers, has called for the destruction of Israel and which Tony Blair promised to outlaw) was invited to speak. As a result, the Foundation was required to return some of the money given to it.

The Islamic Foundation: Described by the BBC’s Panorama as an ‘influential’ outpost of militant Islamist ideology, it was set up by members of Pakistan’s Jamaat-i-Islami opposition party, which campaigns for Pakistan to become an Islamic state governed by Sharia holy law. Panorama claimed the foundation promoted fundamentalist materials.

IEngage: The All-Party Parliamentary Group on Islamophobia used a body called iEngage as the group’s secretariat. iEngage is an organisation of Islamist sympathisers which has repeatedly defended extremists. It called on the Government to revoke a ban on a hardline foreign preacher who has said that ‘every Muslim should be a terrorist’.

The STREET project: Lambeth Council gave an unspecified sum to the STREET project, run by Abdul Haqq Baker, the chairman of the Brixton Mosque and Islamic Cultural Centre. The project was aimed at ‘reaching out’ to young Muslims who were susceptible to violent extremism, but Baker is an adherent of Salafism, a hard line form of Islam seen as in conflict with liberal democracy.

Green Lane and Central mosques: Government money was given to Birmingham’s Green Lane and Central mosques. They featured in an undercover Channel 4 Dispatches programme in which imams were recorded making inflammatory comments. One preacher, Abu Usamah, called for gay people to be executed and was quoted as saying: ‘If I were to call homosexuals perverted, dirty, filthy dogs who should be murdered, that’s my freedom of speech, isn’t it?’.

Global Peace and Unity: Over four years the Met Police gave £26,500 sponsorship to the annual Muslim gathering, Global Peace and Unity. But one of the event’s main speakers had suggested the Queen’s decision to award a knighthood to Salman Rushdie was enough to justify suicide bombings by Muslims.

The Met also employed as an anti-terrorism adviser Mohamed Ali Harrath, who was wanted by Interpol and authorities in his native Tunisia because of his links to an alleged terror organisation.”

“ONE OF TONY BLAIR’S MOST TRUSTED AIDES WAS DRAGGED INTO THE SOUTHERN CROSS CARE HOME SCANDAL. JEREMY HEYWOOD WAS A LEADING FIGURE AT INVESTMENT BANK MORGAN STANLEY, WHICH ADVISED ON THE SALE OF THE TROUBLED FIRM IN 2006. HE IS NOW DAVID CAMERON’S PERMANENT SECRETARY AT DOWNING STREET AND IS TIPPED TO BE THE NEXT CABINET SECRETARY.

His No 10 role puts him at the nerve-centre of a Government that may end up using taxpayers’ money to bail out the residential care group. It is not clear how much of a personal bonus Mr Heywood was paid for overseeing the Southern Cross float in 2006. However banking sources said it is certain that HE WILL HAVE BEEN HANDSOMELY REWARDED FOR RUNNING THE TEAM WHICH WON IT.

The floatation has been heavily criticised because it left the company financially vulnerable and unable to withstand the property crash of 2008. Some 31,000 FRAIL ELDERLY PEOPLE IN 750 CARE HOMES FACE AN UNCERTAIN FUTURE NOW SOUTHERN CROSS IS HOVERING ON THE BRINK OF BANKRUPTCY.”

“Sir John Reith, the founding father of the BBC, was a man imbued with a high sense of moral purpose.

In 1922, when the corporation came into existence, he declared that its mission was ‘to inform, educate and entertain’. as well as ‘to bring the best of everything to the greatest number of homes.’ That spirit lives on in parts of the BBC, reflected, for instance, in a host of superb documentaries and dramas on television and radio. But increasingly THERE IS ANOTHER SIDE TO THE BROADCASTER: A SMUG, NARROW MINDED OUTLOOK THAT CLINGS TO THE FASHIONABLE ORTHODOXIES OF METROPOLITAN OPINION, WHILE MOCKING THE TRADITIONAL VALUES OF MIDDLE BRITAIN. That mentality is epitomised by Radio Four’s weekly programme The News Quiz, which demonstrates not the slightest desire to achieve any political balance in either its content or its panel.

The show is usually just a stream of sneering socialist propaganda dressed up as satire. Most of the contributors are Left-wing comedians such as the pompous Marcus Brigstocke, a bourgeois nerd whose privileged upbringing has left him with a pathetic desperation for street credibility. The presenter Sandi Toksvig is cast in the same mould. A committed supporter of the Liberal Democrats, she is the self-satisfied mouthpiece of the chattering classes, a conceited elitist who regularly mistakes anti-Tory rhetoric for humour.

The mix of achingly Leftwing views and disdain for traditional morality was perfectly captured in a recent incident on the News Quiz, when Toksvig told a socalled ‘joke’ that made reference to the ‘C’ word. As usual, this insult came in the form of a jibe at the Conservative Party. Brimming with characteristic progressive zeal, Toksvig declared that ‘it’s the Tories who have put the ‘n’ in cuts’ – the kind of infantile, offensive remark that might appeal to student protestors but should have no place on the airwaves of our state broadcaster, which we all have to fund through our licence fees to the tune of £2.7billion a year.

Extraordinarily, instead of feeling a shred of embarrassment over this issue, BBC bosses seem to have revelled in it, holding that Toksvig’s comment was just the sort of cutting edge language that Radio 4 listeners enjoy. One BBC executive, who gave his approval to the script, claimed that the “C” word is hardly a taboo any more, and that audiences would “delight” in the joke. That sort of inane drivel just shows how detached our cultural elite has become from mainstream opinion. For the vast majority of Britons, the word is completely beyond the pale, especially because of its foul associations with misogyny.

What is almost as offensive is the hypocrisy of the BBC. The Corporation would not dream of broadcasting a joke about the slackness of the asylum process or the widespread prevalence of welfare abuses or the aggressive superstitions of Muslim fundamentalism. For all their proclaimed eagerness to break taboos through “ground-breaking” material, our cultural commissars are more puritan than the Victorians when it comes to their own rigid code of acceptable behaviour, screeching with hysterical outrage at anything they regard as homophobic or racist or Islamophobic.

One of the tragedies of modern Britain is that our cultural life is riddled with this cocktail of decadence, double standards and doctrinaire posturing. The best in art should inspire and uplift us. Yet so much of the culture run by the metropolitan elite focuses on degeneracy, vacuity or Marxist politics. It is the nihilistic, nasty world of graffiti come to life on the stage or on our screens. That was brought home to me by a couple of experiences in recent days. The first was reading reviews of a new contemporary dance show at the Sadler’s Wells theatre in Islington, in which a dozen naked male performers, wearing nothing but blond wigs and malevolent expressions, leapt into the audience to perpetrate a series of obscene gestures, including spitting and genital exposure.

One critic, whose glasses were covered in phlegm, said it was her ‘most unpleasant experience in the theatre’. The sickening event makes an edition of the Jerry Springer show look like Mary Poppins, yet this is what passes for ‘art’ among the pseudo-intellectuals of north London. Even worse, we all pay for it, since Sadler’s Wells receives a subsidy of £2.5million a year. The second experience was a visit to the Turner Contemporary gallery in my home town of Margate. This venue, which cost £17.5million in public funds, opened last month to a loud fanfare from the metropolitan trendies yet in truth it is a symbol of all that is wrong with modern art…

In the dark, concrete rooms there was not one object that showed artistic merit or aesthetic appeal. All were meaningless daubs or frivolous installations. The whole place was self-indulgent in the extreme.

Like so much in the modern-art racket, Margate’s Turner Contemporary is an insult to the intelligence of the public. If the health of a civilisation is reflected in its culture, then Britain really is in a bad way. Degeneracy is now the order of the day among our new ruling class.”

“MULTICULTURALISM IS MORE THAN A FAILED IDEOLOGY: IT THREATENS OUR SAFETY. SEVERAL FORMER STUDENTS AT BRITISH COLLEGES HAVE ALREADY BEEN CAUGHT PLANNING MURDER: Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, ex-president of UCL’s Islamic Society, tried to blow up a plane in 2009.

We need a change of culture in our universities, some of whose vice-chancellors turn a blind eye to Muslim anti-Semitism rather than compromise their liberal credentials. Complacency is too gentle a word to describe this attitude: rather, it is utter hypocrisy, since THESE ACADEMICS WOULD NEVER TOLERATE SIMILAR SENTIMENTS FROM THE FAR-RIGHT. The Prevent review must extend its reach not just to extremists but also to the useful idiots who offer them a platform. And perhaps it is also time to ask whether universities that compromise our security should be allowed to charge £9,000 a year for their services."

“UP TO 10,000 CRIMINALS A YEAR WILL HAVE THEIR JAIL TERMS SLASHED UNDER KEN CLARKE’S BLUEPRINT FOR SOFTER SENTENCES. Police Minister Nick Herbert revealed that is the number – including killers, sex offenders and muggers – who could benefit from the Justice Secretary’s plans to go easy on those who plead guilty early.

Judges and magistrates can  currently reduce sentences by a third for offenders who admit  their crimes and avoid costly court cases, under guidelines drawn up by Labour. But in an effort to save money. Mr Clarke has launched a consultation on PLANS TO RAISE THE DISCOUNT TO 50 PER CENT.

He unleashed the fury of women’s groups last month when he said rapists could benefit from the change. Yesterday Mr Herbert said: 'Ten thousand offenders are pleading guilty at the very latest point in a trial and that is often particularly damaging to the interests of victims, it’s costly and it’s not in the interests of justice. We need a system that is deterring unnecessarily late pleas and is also incentivising those who plead guilty at an earlier stage.'”

The toll of those infected, to be announced this week by the Health Protection Agency (HPA), is revealed as the world marks 30 years since the first cases of the disease were diagnosed.

“I regret to inform you that you are an extremist, bonkers, a spittle-flecked member of the lunatic fringe.

That is because you agree with me that Wayne Bishop, whose triumphantly smirking, selfish face looks out at us from amid his terrifying brood of children, ought to be breaking rocks on Dartmoor instead, and to hell with his ‘right’ to a family life. Bishop is a burglar. He is also a menacing lout who badly needs to learn some lessons in manners, but never will. We’ve all seen faces like that and learned to cross the street, or shift down the bus, to avoid them when we see them coming. Some people, and God help them, cannot avoid them because they live next to them.

Bishop is the sort of person the law, the police and the prisons were invented to deal with and who – in a sharp break with normal practice – was actually locked up. As the Ministry of Injustice finally admitted last week, it is harder by far to get into prison than it is to get into university.

Here are the figures, which should be tattooed on the foreheads of every member of the Cabinet so we are constantly reminded of how useless they all are: ‘96,710 CRIMINALS SENTENCED LAST YEAR FOR MORE SERIOUS ‘INDICTABLE’ OFFENCES HAD 15 OR MORE PREVIOUS CRIMES AGAINST THEIR NAME. THEY INCLUDED VIOLENT MUGGERS, BURGLARS AND DRUG DEALERS. OF THOSE, ONLY 36 PER CENT – AROUND 34,600 OFFENDERS – WERE GIVEN IMMEDIATE CUSTODY.’

SO EVEN AFTER 15 OR MORE PREVIOUS OFFENCES, THEY WON’T PUT MOST OF THEM AWAY. So it’s almost an irrelevance that Bishop has been let out of prison in the name of his Human Wrongs. It is amazing that he was inside in the first place. You are (for the moment) allowed to laugh at this, or to complain about it. But if, like me, you actually want to do anything about it, then you become an extremist, bonkers, spittle-flecked, lunatic etc.

Because against you, you will find all three major parties, most especially the treacherous, slippery and dishonest Tories, the BBC, the legal profession, the police and the Church of England. They believe the system that allows Wayne Bishop and his many friends to smirk at you while they live off you is a good system. They think you are cruel, crude, outrageous and uncivilised to want a justice system that punishes bad people swiftly in ways they won’t forget.

Well, Wayne Bishop is the result of all their compassion and kindness and, as I grow older and nastier, I can’t help wishing that the people who created him could be forced to go and live next door to him for the rest of their natural lives. But then, I’m an extremist. And if you hate the way people such as Wayne Bishop are caressed by our society, why do you keep voting for the Tories who help to caress him, and do nothing to rescue you from him and from people like him?”

Peter Hitchens - The Daily Mail – 5 June 2011.


“Foreign companies, private health care providers, property businesses, even a luxury travel agent, are being paid hundreds of millions a year in a bid to contain thousands of illegal migrants.

They are all cashing in on decisions made by the UK Border Agency, which was last week described as “unfi t or purpose”. Three French companies earned £106million between them last year. Last night, Tory MP Philip Davies said: “The taxpayer is being screwed and it’s time the Government got a grip.”

An analysis of the agency’s payments to suppliers over the past 12 months shows almost 500 were each paid more than £25,000, totalling £941million. The biggest beneficiary was G4S, formerly known as Group 4, which received £96.9million for running detention centres and providing other security services. Its competitor, Serco, which runs the colossal Yarl’s Wood immigration “removal centre” near Heathrow, was paid £44.3million.

While these two are well known, the Sunday Express has discovered that £44.7million was paid to VF Worldwide Holdings Ltd, a Mauritius company that processes applications for visas. It won a five-year contract in countries such as South Korea, China and Bangladesh in 2007.

Some £67.7million was paid to the French multinational Sodexo, which profits from providing controversial childcare vouchers to thousands of asylum seekers.

Another France-based company, Carlson Wagonlit, a travel agent, was paid £28.7million to book flights home for deported asylum seekers. The company won a contract last year after it emerged civil servants were even hiring private jets for deportations.

The agency also paid £18.7million to the International Organisation for Migration, a body that gives cash to asylum seekers as an “incentive” to go home.

Another £9.3million was transferred to French-owned Atos Origin, a medical and IT specialist.

A Border Agency spokesman was last night unable to give more details about how the money is used.

The files also show £443,000 was paid to Paris Appartments, a company that provides luxury flats for agency staff in the French capital.

There is also a long list of property companies receiving millions of pounds from housing refugees.

It includes Clearsprings Management Ltd, which was paid £22.8million, United Property Management, which pocketed £18.6million, Priority Properties Northwest with £16million, and the YMCA in Glasgow, which was paid £6.2million.

Document storage company Iron Mountain was also paid £6.2million in the year, while £25.3million was spent on the Treasury’s solicitors department for legal fees.

The Government accounts are only the tip of the iceberg. Tens of millions were also transferred to councils, which then contract out services to more private companies.

Last week MP Keith Vaz, chairman of the Commons Home Affairs Select Committee, said the agency was “still not fit for purpose”.

He hit out after it emerged some 74,500 asylum seekers have had their cases concluded simply because the applicants cannot be found. Although 430,500 of the backlog of 450,000 cases have been concluded, only 38,000 would-be migrants have been kicked out of the UK, with 161,000 being granted leave to stay.

Last night Mr Vaz said: “Much of this work used to be done in-house. We looked at this a couple of years ago when we had concern about how some of these contracts were being awarded. We will continue to monitor the situation closely.”

A Home Office spokesman said: “We have reduced the cost of the asylum support system by over £100million in the past year.”

“Between May 2000 and May 2010 the overall number of people being paid Disability Living Allowance soared from 2.1million to 3.1million. The startling figures, released yesterday by the Department for Work and Pensions, come as ministers are preparing to drive through a radical reform of DLA, which costs taxpayers £12billion a year.

The benefit is designed to help disabled people who cannot walk, have difficulty walking or need help getting around.

Yet, astonishingly, the number of people claiming DLA for back pain shot up by more than 80 per cent during the decade.

Furthermore, there was a 250 per cent increase in those getting the benefit for drug and alcohol abuse.

There was also a 200 per cent rise in the number of people claiming for allergies over the same period.”

The spending, which works out at £177 per weekday, does not include the travel of officials and advisers, just Mr Huhne's own car journeys.

The four ministers in the Department of Energy and Climate Change, which he runs, ran up a total bill of more than £176,000 since they took office last May.”

“The number of people receiving disability benefits because of their drink and drug problems has risen by 250 per cent in the past decade, new figures reveal. There are now 22,800 people getting the handouts – not for any disability, but because they are addicts.

Figures also revealed that in the past year, almost 150,000 people received handouts of up to £125 a week because they have back pain – 80 per cent higher than the number of claimants in 2000.

The number of people getting sickness benefit because they have an allergy tripled to 1,300 in 2010.

The figures relate to the disability living allowance (DLA), which is paid to people who need help to move about, or need help caring for  themselves.

Overall, the number of claimants soared from 2.2million to 3.2million – a rise of almost 50 per cent.”

Of 5,228 offences involving knives or offensive weapons in the year’s first three months, only 1,014 culprits – 19 per cent – were jailed immediately. The figure is a 34 per cent drop on the 1,527 jailed in the same period two years ago and a 16 per cent drop on last year’s 1,202. The proportion of offences leading to jail terms fell to 19 per cent from 23 per cent in both 2009 and 2010.”

“A staggering quarter of a million failed asylum seekers have been granted an ‘amnesty’ in Britain over the past two decades. Chaos in the immigration system has forced ministers to allow some 256,000 failed asylum seekers to stay since the early 1990s, according to figures compiled by the MigrationWatch think-tank. The figure is the equivalent of the population of Brighton being accommodated in Britain.”

The Daily Mail – 2 June 2011.


“The toxic legacy of worklessness left by Labour has been laid bare in stark figures. Between 1997 and 2010 the number of households in which no one has ever had a job almost doubled from 184,000 to 352,000. This equates to more than 550,000 people for whom worklessness has become a way of life, according to the Office for National Statistics. Furthermore, seven out of ten adults in those households admit they have no intention of ever going to work.

Critics say the figures are a reminder of the way a culture of benefit dependency has grown up, leaving a generation in some parts of Britain totally ignorant of the work ethic.

And in a startling confirmation of how this is passed on through the generations, the official figures show there are 265,000 under 16 years old living in households where none of the adults has ever worked.

Shockingly, 68 per cent of adults surveyed in these homes said they were ‘not seeking a job and would not like to work’."

“Britain’s border chiefs have been savaged in a damning report for creating a secret amnesty for asylum seekers. They were criticised after MPs discovered they had dished out visas as a way of clearing a huge backlog of files. Out of 450,000 outstanding cases, just 38,000 migrants were removed.

A massive 161,000 were given indefinite leave to stay after a change in rules and almost 75,000 simply disappeared. That meant about 235,500 benefited from Britain’s open door immigration policy, branded ‘still not fit for purpose’ in the report published today. Other critics called the system ‘feeble’ and ‘shambolic’.”

“A Dickensian scandal for the 21st century…

To the millions who believe our society has advanced a long way since the Victorians in looking after its most vulnerable, this week’s revelations from Bristol will come as a shocking awakening. True, we spend vastly more public money than our 19th century ancestors on caring for the mentally disturbed, while the state has set up elaborate structures to regulate their treatment. But the BBC Panorama report on  Winterbourne View private hospital for disturbed adults has exposed cruelty and ritual humiliation as inhuman as anything described by Dickens.

If brutality like this can go on in a supposedly state-of-the-art facility, charging taxpayers £3,500 a week for every patient, isn’t it all but certain that it’s happening elsewhere too? Everybody accepts that looking after disturbed young adults is hugely  demanding, calling for rare qualities of patience and dedication. Indeed, this is why the Care Quality Commission was set up, to ensure that carers couldn’t fall short of the highest standards. Yet the disgrace is that even when the commission was warned last December about what was happening, it did  nothing whatever about it.

In a way that would shock enlightened Victorians, modern Britons have chosen to delegate to others the responsibility for looking after the disabled, the elderly and the inconvenient. But this can only work if those paid to ensure the vulnerable are humanely treated do their jobs. After the Winterbourne View scandal, four members of the hospital staff have been arrested and 13 others suspended.

But shouldn’t CQC staff also be held to account for their culpable neglect?…

For the 31,000 elderly residents of Southern Cross homes, this is a time of deep anxiety as the firm responsible for the roof over their heads teeters towards bankruptcy. In the financial world, meanwhile, it should be a time of equally deep shame. For this is another story of the City putting greed, reckless expansion and short-term gain before prudence.

When a U.S. private equity firm bought Southern Cross in 2004, the company was soundly based in bricks and mortar. When it sold out three years later,  having quadrupled its money through sale-and-leaseback deals, Southern Cross was desperately vulnerable to the  changing economic winds. And as with the banks, it looks as if  taxpayers will be saddled with a bailout. When will the City learn that its  predatory, unethical greed plays into the hands of Left-wingers who say the private sector can’t be trusted with social care?

Hiring private jets, £6.6million. Gifts of Tiffany jewellery, £17,741. Four nights for nine in a New York hotel, £24,600...

The extortionate expenses charged  by the EU’s unelected commissioners,  when high-living Peter Mandelson and hopeless Baroness Ashton were Britain’s representatives, make our greediest MPs and peers look like mere amateurs. In 2009 alone, the body chalked up  a staggering £265,000 bill for... wait for it... ‘cocktail parties’!

As all Europe is being forced to cut spending, this same EU Commission is now demanding a 5 per cent increase  in its £117million budget, while  campaigning for direct taxation powers that would cost British families a  further £3billion. How contemptible. But then what do you expect when power is handed over to bodies unaccountable to anyone?”

“Immigrants make up a THIRD of murder suspects and alleged rapists in a string of areas, shock new figures reveal. And one in seven of all people accused of these crimes in the UK as a whole is a foreign national.

“A prisoner is being allowed to become a father from behind bars because of his human rights. The inmate’s demand for artificial insemination with his partner was approved by Justice Secretary Kenneth Clarke earlier this year. It is thought the treatment, which can cost up to £2,000 a time, is being paid for by the NHS.

The decision was based on the  prisoner’s ‘right to family life’ under Article 8 of the Human Rights Act.”

“The BBC is anti-Christian and ageist – according to a survey it carried out itself. Viewers also felt that minority groups were over-represented by the Corporation. They expressed concerns over ‘tokenism’ and ‘box-ticking’ and warned the broadcaster against trying to ‘manipulate’ an equal society instead of reflecting reality. The survey was conducted as part of the BBC’s ‘Diversity Strategy’ and involved 4,500 people, including some BBC staff.

Some viewers still believe the broadcaster has a Left-wing or ‘liberal bias’, the consultation found.  Others said ‘positive discrimination’ was still a ‘notable’ problem with the BBC’s recruitment process.

According to viewers, Christians are badly treated with ‘derogatory stereotypes’ which portray them as ‘weak’ or ‘bigoted’. It was suggested that there was a bias against Christianity and that other religions were better represented.”

“NHS fat cats are enjoying pension pots worth more than £2.5million, and some chief executives will retire on annual payouts of up to £110,000.

While final salary pension schemes have all but disappeared in the private sector, it is those employees who will end up footing the health service pension bill through their taxes.

Details of the gold-plated pensions come after evidence of lucrative payments to health service managers, even though the whole system is under severe financial strain.”

“Nearly two thirds of criminals avoid jail despite amassing at least 15 convictions, shocking figures show. Instead of being put behind bars, more than 62,000 offenders were given lesser punishments, such as community service or a fine, last year.

More than 4,000 walked out of court with only a caution. The figures reveal that serial offenders are less likely to be given a jail sentence today than at any time in the past decade.

And they further raise concerns that career criminals, including drug dealers and burglars, are getting only a ‘slap on the wrist’.”

“A rise in the number of women in their 40s having abortions is being blamed on the Sex And The City generation. Figures show those having terminations in this age group has increased by a third in a decade. Experts believe this is due to increased sexual activity among older women, a higher number of whom are single or divorced.

They are also more likely to have casual sex or short-term relationships and take chances with contraception, the experts believe…..In total, 8,719 women aged 40 and over terminated pregnancies last year, including 650 women above the age of 45 and 21 aged 50 or over.

The statistics include women who had tried to get pregnant in their 40s, only to opt for termination when screening showed a high chance of birth abnormalities such as Down’s syndrome – the risk of which rises with age.”

“Social care in England is ‘grossly inadequate’ and ‘totally failing’ to meet the needs of disabled people aged over 65, according to a new report. Research by Age UK has found that of the 2 million older people in England with care-related needs, 800,000 do not receive formal support from public or private sector agencies. But the picture is growing even bleaker, warns the report, Care in Crisis: with spending cuts under way, more than 1 million of the most vulnerable pensioners in England will be left without help or support by 2014, it concludes.”

“The public are paying more than £1 million a month to “bribe” illegal immigrants and failed asylum seekers to go home. Up to £74 million has been spent in the last five years funding a voluntary return scheme for those who have no right to remain in the UK. The programme currently offers packages worth up to £2,000 ‘in kind’ support in their home country in return for them not fighting removal.

It comes a week after The Daily Telegraph disclosed that up to £25 million has been spent over the same period in ‘bribes’ for foreign criminals to go home.

Separate figures today also show that a further £8.2 million was spent last year on charter flights to send almost 2,000 failed asylum seekers and foreign prisoners home. Ministers insist the expenditure saves the taxpayer in the long run because it saves on lengthy legal battles to avoid removal. But the rising public bill has renewed the debate over where the line should be drawn.”

“British police reveal that over 23,000 child sex abuse cases were recorded in 2009-2010, which is 8 percent more than the previous record in 2008-2009. According to the police reports in England and Wales, the number of recorded cases of child sex abuse in 2007-2008 was 13 percent lower than 23,000, which is 64 a day, in 2009-2010. The report shows that a child was being sexually abused every 20 minutes in 2010.

According to the data, gathered from 43 forces, 25 percent of the victims aged below 12 and over thousands of them were younger than 5 years.”

New figures from the Ministry of Defence reveal that 1,400 16-year-olds were recruited into the Army last year, accounting for 17.4 per cent of all new recruits – an increase from 12.7 per cent the previous year.

And despite MoD guidelines saying under-18s should not be sent to battle zones, this newspaper has established that three were deployed to Afghanistan and two to Iraq between April 2007 and April 2010. THIRTY-SIX TEENAGE SOLDIERS HAVE BEEN KILLED IN AFGHANISTAN AND IRAQ.”

“She was chosen by David Cameron as a ‘champion for British business’ – but seven months later shoe tycoon Tamara Mellon has barely attended any events in her prestigious role. Last autumn, the Prime Minister trumpeted the glamorous Jimmy Choo boss’s appointment to promote UK industry abroad alongside 15 other figures from the world of commerce.

But while Mrs Mellon is on the verge of amassing £85million for selling her stake in the luxury footwear empire, she has had little time to perform any duties for the wider good of British business.

According to government body UK Trade and Investment (UKTI), she attended just one official event – a reception at Lancaster House in February – in connection with her role as a business ambassador.”

“The new immigration figures tell the story of a nation that has been cutting its own economic throat. IN LESS THAN A DECADE THE PROPORTION OF UNSKILLED JOBS FILLED BY FOREIGN WORKERS HAS MORE THAN DOUBLED. AT THE SAME TIME THE NUMBER OF BRITONS ON LONG-TERM OUT-OF-WORK BENEFITS HAS REMAINED STUBBORNLY HIGH…

There is no getting away from the fact that their arrival in such large numbers has depressed wages. IN COMBINATION WITH A SLACK BENEFITS SYSTEM, THIS HAS LED MILLIONS OF BRITONS TO CONCLUDE THEY CAN EXPECT A BETTER LIFESTYLE OUT OF WORK THAN IN IT.

This is a massive factor in our public finances crisis. The benefits bill for domestic unemployment has been far too high while foreigners in low-paid work have added hugely to demand for expensive public services. Migrants on the minimum wage pay little in tax BUT HAVE THE RIGHT TO FREE HEALTHCARE, FREE SCHOOLING FOR THEIR CHILDREN AND A HOST OF OTHER TAXPAYER-FUNDED AMENITIES. The result of crazy immigration and welfare policies has been WORSENING RACE RELATIONS, OVERCROWDING AND THE DETACHMENT OF MILLIONS OF ABLE-BODIED ADULTS FROM THE WORKING POPULATION.

It is difficult to see how this will ever change so long as migrants from eastern Europe have the automatic right to seek work in Britain. Like so many other political problems this is one that will only be cracked once Britain is OUTSIDE THE EU AND BACK IN CHARGE OF ITS OWN BORDERS.”

“IMMIGRATION ROSE TO NEAR-RECORD LEVELS LAST YEAR, official  figures have revealed. Net migration increased at the  fastest rate since Labour opened Britain’s doors to workers from the Eastern European states that joined the EU seven years ago.

In the year up to September 2010, the figure for net migration – the difference between immigration and emigration – was 242,000, the third highest on record.

SOME 586,000 PEOPLE ARRIVED TO LIVE IN BRITAIN AND 344,000 EMIGRATED. The net migration of 242,000 was nearly 100,000 higher than the previous year. It means that David Cameron must more than halve immigration if he is to get anywhere close to the Coalition ‘aspiration’ of bringing net migration down to tens of thousands a year.”

The Daily Mail – 27 May 2011.

That is, 344,000 people, most of them of native British origin, left these islands and 589,000 foreigners arrived to take their place and make even more true Brits want to leave. THEY are ethnically cleansing us out of our own homeland. THEY have been doing so since way before Blair and Brown began importing the third world hand over fist.

Without a civil war this will not stop. THEY are at war with us.

Most of us lay just down and die without a fight.


“THE NUMBER OF POLISH PEOPLE LIVING IN THE UK HAS INCREASED FROM 75,000 TO 521,000 IN EIGHT YEARS. EU expansion in 2004 gave Poles open access to Britain. Now Poles make up 69 per cent of immigrants coming from Central and Eastern Europe, data from the Office of National Statistics shows.

Polish immigration peaked in 2007 with almost 100,000 arrivals. The number declined to around 40,000 in 2009. But the number leaving Britain fell too, with emigration falling from 54,000 to 29,000 between 2007 and 2009. Before Poland joined the EU around 55 per cent of Polish-born people in the UK were of working age. Now 85 per cent are aged between 16 and 64.

Unemployment among Polish people was about 5.5 per cent in the first three months of 2011 AGAINST THE NATIONAL AVERAGE RATE OF 7.7 PER CENT. At the end of September 2010, Poles were one of the three largest non-UK born population groups in most of the UK with the largest group, 123,000 Polish-born residents, living in London.”

Official figures released yesterday show IT IS OUR UNSKILLED WORKFORCE THAT HAS BORNE THE BRUNT OF THE MASSIVE INFLUX. ONE IN FIVE OF THEIR JOBS LAST YEAR WENT TO FOREIGN WORKERS COMPARED WITH ONE IN 11 IN 2002.

But separate figures from the British Crime Survey show A TOTAL 9.5 MILLION CRIMES WERE COMMITTED IN ENGLAND AND WALES DURING THE LAST 12 MONTHS. The annual criminal justice statistics also revealed that the proportion of serial offenders has risen sharply in the last decade.

OFFENDERS WITH AT LEAST 15 PREVIOUS CONVICTIONS TO THEIR NAME NOW MAKE UP 29 PER CENT OF THOSE CONVICTED IN THE CROWN COURTS, COMPARED TO JUST 17 PER CENT IN 2000.

“A teacher with 30 years’ experience told yesterday how he was sacked after a rowdy pupil claimed he grabbed his arm and left four small scratch marks.

Ronnie Lane, 56, admitted  confronting the unruly 15-year-old boy, who had special educational needs, after he had repeatedly wandered the classroom ‘scrunching up’ other boys’ GCSE art coursework.

The married teacher agreed that during the lesson in July 2009 he did touch the boy’s arm while asking him to release another pupil’s painting, to stop it being damaged.

But a tribunal in Liverpool  heard how ‘minutes’ after leaving the room to find a colleague, the boy claimed Mr Lane had grabbed his  right forearm so hard it left nail marks.

Despite a retired senior police officer saying the injuries could have been self-inflicted, Mr Lane was sacked from West Derby School – even though the boy later refused to assist investigators.”

State “bribes” dished out under the Home Office’s voluntary return programme were given to nearly half of all overseas prisoners removed in the past 16 months alone at a cost of up to £12million, according to leaked documents.

The figure is about the same amount paid out in the first three years of the scheme and shows how common the controversial handouts are becoming.

Just one in three prisoners deported in 2009 left under the voluntary programme. Last year that figure was closer to one in two.”

“BRITAIN IS ONE OF THE WORST PLACES FOR FAMILIES IN EUROPE, according to a study released today. Stress about work, debts and long hours have taken their toll on the British family compared to our European neighbours, the Relationship Council claims.The survey revealed Britons work some of the longest hours in Europe – on average 43 a week – as well as spending almost a quarter of their salary on childcare costs. With one in five families struggling to make ends meet the report suggests there needs to be urgent reform to the way people are helped across the UK.

The report reveals 14 PER CENT OF FAMILIES ARE SUFFERING ‘CRITICAL’ LEVELS OF DEBT compared with Swedish, Finnish and Norwegian households. ONE IN SEVEN FAMILIES SPEND MORE THAN 40 PER CENT OF THEIR INCOME ON RENT OR A MORTGAGE IN COMPARISON WITH JUST 1.8 PER CENT OF OUR FRENCH NEIGHBOURS…

“As the Committee on super-injunctions was composed entirely of judges and lawyers, we should not be very surprised that its conclusions are so inadequate and do little or nothing to lift the veil of secrecy from public life. This is a small ‘c’ conservative report by people who essentially want to keep things as they are.

Indeed, two of the committee represent law firms – Carter Ruck and Schillings – which in recent years have been at the forefront of moves for ever greater secrecy.  It is a bit like asking two notorious sharpshooters to sit on a committee discussing the use of firearms in the Wild West.

What is absent from the report is the remotest glimmer of an admission that JUDGES HAVE GONE TOO FAR – and very fast – in developing a privacy law on the basis of Article Eight of THE EUROPEAN CONVENTION ON HUMAN RIGHTS…

It is conceded that SUPER-INJUNCTIONS… were once granted ‘far too often’, though no heartfelt apology is forthcoming. According to the committee, which was chaired by Lord Neuberger, Master of the Rolls, only two super-injunctions have been issued since January 2010, out of around 80 handed out since 2005... The device they now favour is the ‘anonymity order’, which to the innocent bystander does not look very different from a super-injunction… Anonymity orders scarcely offer more open justice than super-injunctions, and the report does not suggest they will be used less frequently…

THIS IS ALL ABOUT THE NUTS AND BOLTS OF ENFORCING SECRECY, not about the issue itself…

It is a well-established principle of our constitution that Parliament is sovereign. And yet the report says that reports in the Commons are protected by parliamentary privilege only if they are published ‘in good faith and without malice’. Who is to be the arbiter of that?  Why, judges, of course.

On Thursday, Lord Stoneham, a Lib Dem peer, revealed in the House of Lords that, while he was chief executive of Royal Bank of Scotland, Sir Fred Goodwin had an extra-marital affair with a senior colleague which could have affected his judgment as the bank collapsed at a cost of billions of pounds to British taxpayers. Despite the obvious public interest in knowing how and when and why Sir Fred may have had his eye off the ball, he had originally been granted a super-injunction, which meant that the media could report nothing whatsoever.

It was the Lib Dem MP John Hemming who first revealed that Sir Fred had been granted such an order, and on Thursday his colleague Lord Stoneham supplied the explanation. Who was defending the public interest in this case – the judiciary or parliamentarians? In my view, it was outrageous that Sir Fred Goodwin should have been given protection by a judge… By contrast, John Hemming and Lord Stoneham are heroic figures. And yet, if Lord Neuberger and his colleagues have their way, journalists publishing the words of such parliamentarians could be prosecuted if they are judged not to have acted ‘in good faith and without malice’. This is a preposterous infringement of both parliamentary sovereignty and freedom of expression, which illustrates an alarming arrogance on the part of the higher judiciary…

One further example of judicial overkill is the report’s suggestion that any journalist made aware of the identity of a claimant in a privacy case should be identified in writing to the court. If that journalist were to disclose any details of the injunction to a third party, he or she would be guilty of contempt of court, and face possible imprisonment. So would a third party passing on this information.

In other words, this report defends the right of judges to enforce privacy orders even to the extent of threatening parliamentarians and journalists…

Lawyers reasonably say that Parliament originally passed the Human Rights Act, along with Article Eight, but almost no one envisaged the way in which judges would chose to develop this law, or the speed.”

“The non-white British population of England and Wales has grown from 6.6 million in 2001 to 9.1 million in 2009 – nearly one in six of the population.”

Figures giving a detailed ethnic breakdown for each of the 423 local authorities were published on Wednesday in an "experimental" data release from the Office for National Statistics. They also show THERE ARE NOW ALMOST A MILLION MIXED-RACE PEOPLE IN THE TWO COUNTRIES.

The white British population has stayed the same since 2001; there has been an increase in births, but there has also been a similar number of people migrating. The non-white British population has grown by 4.1% a year, adding up to 37.4% growth – 2.5 million – over the whole period. The only group to shrink is the white Irish population – down from 646,600 in 2001 to 574,200, due to falling birthrates and migration.

A rise in the ‘other white’ population from 1.4 million to 1.9 million is not simply due to eastern Europeans arriving, said the ONS statistician responsible for the report, but also because of the arrival of people from Commonwealth countries such as Australia and New Zealand.

The mixed-race population is up nearly 50% to almost a million for the first time – up from 672,000 in 2001 to 986,600 in 2009. A third are mixed African-Caribbean and white, followed by Asian/white. The ONS said this was not a result of increasing birthrates but because ‘the population is mixing up more’. Haringey, north London, has the highest proportion, at 4.4%.

In 225 local authority areas, more than 90% of the local population is white.”

England is the second most densely populated country in Europe and one of the most densely populated countries in the world, with over 1,000 people per square mile. Astonishingly, it is even more densely populated than India, China or Japan.

Office for National Statistics figures published in 2008 predict the UK’s population will hit 70 million by 2031, 80 million by 2061, and over 85 million by 2081.

This steep increase can be shown to be the direct result of immigration and births to migrants. Without mass immigration the population would naturally decline to 60 million by 2031.

IN AN AGE WHEN THE ENVIRONMENT AND GREEN ISSUES ARE HIGH ON THE AGENDA, IT IS ODD THAT THE UNSUSTAINABLE GROWTH IN THE UK POPULATION IS NOT TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT AS AN IMPORTANT FACTOR IN THE SUSTAINABILITY OF OUR NATURAL RESOURCES, PUBLIC SERVICES AND INFRASTRUCTURE.

The British people have been remarkably tolerant of the dramatic changes brought about by mass immigration over the last 50 years or more. However, ANYONE WHO TRIES TO QUESTION THE WISDOM OF UNRESTRAINED MASS IMMIGRATION RUNS THE RISK OF BEING ACCUSED OF RACISM OR XENOPHOBIA.

Britain’s immigration policy has been designed for the benefit of foreigners not for British citizens. That has to change if we want to manage population growth in keeping with our available resources. There has to be radical change starting now.”

The Daily Express – 19 May 2011.

“Britain’s immigration policy has been designed for the benefit of foreigners not for British citizens.”

“Designed for the benefit of foreigners” BY those who wished to destroy us.

 

“Not for the first time, a private letter from Dr Liam Fox to David Cameron finds its way into the newspapers. And not for the first time, the Defence Secretary’s attack on government policy is 100 per cent right. Last year Dr Fox’s friends were accused of publicising his fears that defence cuts would leave us dangerously exposed. This time it’s his enemies who are suspected of leaking his reservations about the overseas aid programme.

But whoever it was, won’t millions applaud him when he says it’s foolish to pass an inflexible law, committing us to give more to foreign countries? Indeed, the Mail would go further than Dr Fox, who says he has no quarrel with the principle of boosting aid to 0.7 per cent of our national income.

As we’ve constantly argued, IT IS SIMPLY WRONG TO PROTECT (LET ALONE INCREASE) THE OVERSEAS AID BUDGET — MUCH OF WHICH ENDS UP IN THE SWISS BANK ACCOUNTS OF THIRD WORLD DICTATORS — WHILE WE’RE MAKING HUGE SACRIFICES AT HOME. After all, it’s our money they’re giving away.

Yet, TIME AND AGAIN, THIS GOVERNMENT PUTS FOREIGN DEMANDS FIRST — as we saw on Monday, when Chancellor George Osborne signed up to a rescue fund for Portugal, bringing our contributions to bailing out the euro to £500 per family. How can such handouts be justified when essential services are being cut and Dr Fox is being asked to make yet more cuts in our defences?

Mr Cameron is said to regard lavish overseas aid as essential to ‘detoxifying’ the image of his party. But WHAT COULD BE MORE TOXIC THAN GIVING MORE TO REGIMES THAT HARBOUR TERRORISTS WHILE WEAKENING OUR ABILITY TO DEFEND OURSELVES?”

The Daily Mail – 18 May 2011.

“Hubris has been having a high old time of it this week at the expense of four supremely arrogant men.

Chris Huhne, Jeremy Clarkson, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Dominique Strauss-Kahn are all middle-aged, outstandingly successful and extremely rich. But their overweening arrogance has brought them, very publicly, to the brink of ruin.”

The Daily Mail – 18 May 2011.

 

“THE GOVERNMENT HATES AND 'WANTS TO DESTROY' THE POLICE WITH SAVAGE CUTS THAT WILL LEAVE THE PUBLIC AS THE BIGGEST LOSERS, RANK-AND-FILE OFFICERS SAID TODAY.

Services have entered a period of 'doom, gloom and despondency', John Giblin, chairman of the Police Federation sergeants committee, told policing minister Nick Herbert. As the annual federation conference began in Bournemouth, MINISTERS STOOD ACCUSED OF TREATING OFFICERS 'LIKE CATTLE' OVER THE 20 PER CENT BUDGET SLASH.”

 The Daily Mail – 17 May 2011.

On 17 May 2011, The Daily Mail reported thus:

“'COMPENSATION CULTURE' IS SPREADING THROUGH SCHOOLS… A PUPIL SUED HIS SCHOOL FOR £750 AFTER HAVING HOT CUSTARD SPILT ON HIS ARM… a survey has revealed.

Thousands more were paid out in the past two years to children who tripped up on the playground, further showing how a 'compensation culture' has spread to the country's schools… Headteachers have told how the claim culture means schools have to put up warning signs every time it rains, while another said that 'even the cotton wool we wrap children in is checked beforehand'.

The figures were revealed through a Freedom of Information request which asked councils on Merseyside to show details of every successful compensation claim borough against schools by pupils.
The results shows that more than £50,000 was paid out to pupils' families in the Liverpool borough of Knowsley between 2008 and 2010.

Successful claims included… £3,000 for a child accidentally kicked in the face and a pupil who tripped over an 'unmarked ramp' was given £350. Other payouts included more than £6,000 for a child who was hit in the eye with a pen and £4,500 to a student who caught their leg on a 'protruding screw'. In Wirral, Merseyside, more than £21,000 was paid out for seven incidents during the same period. Payouts in the borough included £6,535 for a pupil injured falling off a chair, £4,000 for a pupil injured on a fence while compensation payments totalling almost £4,000 were made to pupils for tripping up on the playground. And in Sefton more than £6,000 was paid over the same period for two incidents relating to trips in playgrounds and a pupil falling on broken glass…

Jim Donnelly, headteacher at Litherland High School, Merseyside, said scrutiny on safeguarding, which now forms part of Ofsted inspections, and THE THREAT OF COMPENSATION MEANT HEALTH AND SAFETY WAS EMBEDDED INTO SCHOOL LIFE. Mr Donnelly said:

'If it starts to rain we would put up a ‘Be careful, slippery surface’ sign up on exit doors because we know insurers would want to know what steps we have taken.'

Steve Peach, headteacher at Wallasey secondary The Oldershaw, said most schools took out insurance cover through the local authority and carried out robust and daily risk assessments. He said:

'WE LIVE IN A CLAIM CULTURE and health and safety is now part of every member of staff's job description. But UNLESS WE REFUSE TO ALLOW CHILDREN TO BE CHILDREN NOTHING IS RISK FREE.'

Nick Seaton, secretary of the Campaign For Real Education, said:

'Schools have an impossible job. Accidents do happen'."

On 17 May 2011, The Daily Mail reported thus:

“A typical FTSE 100 executive enjoys a pay package of £3.75million – 145 TIMES MORE THAN THEIR WORKERS receive, a report reveals today. The High Pay Commission’s initial findings warn that INCOME INEQUALITY HAS RETURNED TO LEVELS NOT SEEN SINCE VICTORIAN ENGLAND.”

The inequality began under Thatcher and grew under the great traitors, Blair and Brown.

On 17 May 2011, The Daily Mail reported thus:

“TEACHERS WANT TO DITCH CLASSIC NOVELS IN FAVOUR OF SHORTER BOOKS BECAUSE THEY RECKON BOYS DO NOT HAVE THE STAMINA TO READ MORE THAN 100 PAGES… Boys are so used to computer games and watching TV their attention spans have shrunk and they are ‘intimidated’ by long books, a study has found. Teachers believe the classics they are expected to teach, by authors such as Jane Austen, can put boys off reading for life…

Just 29 per cent of boys are still interested past 100 pages, the study by publisher Pearson found.”

It’s called dumbing-down.



On 17 May 2011, The Daily Express reported thus:

“DRUG ADDICTS ARE POCKETING BENEFITS AMOUNTING TO MORE THAN £1BILLION EVERY YEAR, SHOCKING FIGURES REVEALED LAST NIGHT. About 270,000 serial users of heroin and crack cocaine are estimated to be jobless and living on state handouts, according to the Whitehall statistics. A further £162million a year is being handed to convicted criminals who go straight on to jobless benefits after they are released from prison.”

On 17 May 2011, The Daily Express reported thus:

“The UK Border Agency lacks the information to manage immigration effectively, the Commons’ Committee of Public Accounts says. And it warns the current points-based system is failing to protect British jobs. It added that the UKBA, hampered by a lack of exit controls, failed to monitor migrants’ right to remain. SOME 181,000 PEOPLE WHO SHOULD HAVE LEFT MAY STILL BE IN THE COUNTRY, the agency estimates.”

On 17 May 2011, Private Eye reported thus:

“An unpopular plan to upgrade the RAF’s fleet of Puma helicopters by sending them TO THE OTHER SIDE OF EUROPE for a £300m refit was ditched in 2009 because Labour MPs feared that carrying out the upgrading and maintenance work in Romania would provoke a ‘voter backlash’… But UNDER THE COALITION THE DECISION HAS BEEN QUIETLY REVERSED; and the RAF is busily crating up its Pumas at RAF Benson in Oxfordshire and sending them to Eurocopter Romania by, er, road. THE BASIC MAINTENANCE, OVERHAULS, INSPECTIONS AND UPGRADES WILL BE CARRIED OUT BY ROMANIAN WORKERS AT EUROCOPTER’S FACTORY NEAR BUCHAREST.”

On 16 May 2011, The Daily Mail reported thus:

“Thousands of immigrants have been granted 'squatters' rights' to stay in the UK - after living here illegally for 14 years.
Under a little known rule up to 2,000 immigrants have been allowed to remain indefinitely every year - simply because they have been here for so long.
A law passed by Labour in 2003 gives them the right to claim residence if they have successfully evaded the immigration authorities for 14 years.
Anyone whose application is approved gets the right to stay indefinitely, working rights and full access to benefits.”

On 16 May 2011, The Daily Mail reported thus:

“He's got a string of previous convictions as long as your arm. But crime isn’t Nathan Cassidy’s only compulsion. The serial burglar has an obsession with cleanliness – and that condition has helped keep him out of prison. The 20-year-old was allowed to walk free from court after he told a judge HE WOULD FIND JAIL ‘TOO TRAUMATIC’ BECAUSE OF HIS OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE DISORDER.

Cassidy smashed his way into an elderly couple’s home while they were sleeping and stole a handbag containing £105. THE THIEF, WHO HAS 14 PREVIOUS CONVICTIONS FOR 29 CRIMES, COMMITTED THE BURGLARY WHILE ON A SUSPENDED SENTENCE FOR ROBBERY AND HANDLING STOLEN GOODS.

However, he avoided jail by convincing Cambridge Crown Court he would not be able to cope with life behind bars because he is obsessed with cleanliness. Instead Judge Gareth Hawkesworth handed Cassidy, of Cambridge, a 12-month sentence in a young offenders’ institution, suspended for two years... Judge Hawkesworth said:

‘It’s clear to me from the psychological report you have a raft of psychological problems that need addressing’.”

And it’s clear to me, Hawkesworth, old horror, that you should NOT be a judge.

On 16 May 2011, Leo McKinstry said this in The Daily Express:

"It was one of the most revealing admissions ever made by a New Labour apparatchik. In 2009 the former Downing Street aide Andrew Neather boasted that THE DESIRE TO TRANSFORM BRITAIN THROUGH MASS IMMIGRATION HAD NOT ONLY BEEN A ‘DRIVING POLITICAL PURPOSE” OF THE LABOUR GOVERNMENT BUT HAD ALSO BEEN MOTIVATED BY THE DESIRE TO “RUB THE RIGHT’S NOSE IN DIVERSITY.’ With those words, Neather exposed the utter treachery and cynicism at the heart of the Labour Party.

THEIR APPROACH REPRESENTED AN ACT OF NATIONAL DESTRUCTION UNPARALLELED IN BRITISH HISTORY. OUR SOCIAL COHESION HAS BEEN TORN APART, WITH TOO MANY BRITISH CITIZENS MADE TO FEEL LIKE ALIENS IN THEIR OWN LAND. IN THEIR DETERMINATION TO IMPOSE THIS RADICAL CHANGE, LABOUR MINISTERS ADOPTED A MIX OF BULLYING AND PROPAGANDA. ON ONE HAND, THEY CONSTANTLY EXTOLLED THE UNALLOYED JOYS OF MULTICULTURALISM. ON THE OTHER, THEY HURLED ACCUSATIONS OF RACISM AGAINST ANYONE WHO WANTED TO PROTECT OUR NATIONAL IDENTITY. Now the disastrous consequences of uncontrolled immigration can be seen all around us, from the prominence of the burka on the streets of Bradford to the gangland warfare in south London.

Another graphic symbol of this revolution has been THE REVIVAL OF WITCHCRAFT IN OUR MIDST. Such primitive customs were supposed to have disappeared from Britain centuries ago. They should belong to the superstitious barbarism of a distant past, yet now, thanks to immigration, they have reappeared in Britain. According to a new independent study, police and child protection officers fear that there may be hundreds of witchcraft cases where children are thought to be possessed and therefore have to be beaten, starved or even tortured to drive out the “evil spirits”.

Such horrifying abuse is usually perpetrated by the relatives or guardians, most of whom hail from the strife-torn Democratic Republic of Congo. Tragically it is children with mental or physical disabilities who are at the greatest risk. Such horrifying practices should have absolutely no place in modern Britain, but THIS IS WHAT THE ENTHUSIASTS FOR ‘RICH CULTURAL DIVERSITY’ HAVE INFLICTED ON US. The lethal consequences of this brave new world were shockingly illustrated by the case of Victoria Climbie, the African girl who endured an appalling regime of torture from her guardians before she finally died from systematic abuse in February 2000.

Victoria’s great aunt Marie Therese Kouao, who was subsequently jailed for her murder along with her vicious boyfriend Carl Manning, said she thought the child was possessed, a claim that had been backed up by a pastor at her evangelical church. Just as shockingly, THE LOCAL SOCIAL SERVICES DEPARTMENT FAILED TO INTERVENE TO PROTECT VICTORIA BECAUSE STAFF FELT THAT THEY SHOULD SHOW RESPECT FOR AFRICAN CUSTOMS. THIS IS AN OUTCOME PRODUCED BY THE SICK MINDSET OF LEFT-WING THINKING, WHERE EVEN THE MURDEROUS ILL-TREATMENT OF A CHILD GOES UNCHALLENGED BECAUSE OF DOGMATIC ANTI-RACISM…

Victoria Climbie’s case is hardly unique. Earlier this month, police revealed that the torso of a boy found floating in the Thames was probably from west Africa and had almost certainly died in a voodoo ritualistic killing, since HIS HEAD AND LIMBS HAD BEEN SAWN OFF WITH THE PRECISION OF A MASTER BUTCHER AND A BLACK MAGIC POTION HAD BEEN FOUND IN HIS STOMACH. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT HE WAS EVEN BROUGHT INTO BRITAIN PURELY FOR THE PURPOSES OF HUMAN SACRIFICE.

Such incidents might be obscene but they are the inevitable result of A POLITICAL SYSTEM THAT ENCOURAGES THE ARRIVAL OF NO FEWER THAN 570,000 IMMIGRANTS EVERY YEAR, THE VAST MAJORITY OF THEM FROM AFRICA AND ASIA. THE SHEER SCALE OF THE INFLUX IS WHY OUR SOCIETY IS GRIPPED BY CRISIS. A MUSLIM POPULATION OF THREE MILLION, FOR INSTANCE, HAS BROUGHT WITH IT REMORSELESS PRESSURE FOR SHARIA LAW, THE RISE OF HOME-GROWN ISLAMIC TERRORISM, THE DESTRUCTION OF FREE SPEECH AND THE INTRODUCTION OF CORRUPT, TRIBAL POLITICS AT THE BALLOT BOX…

The East End London borough of Tower Hamlets is rapidly becoming an Islamic enclave, where MUSLIM HARDLINERS PATROL THE STREETS TELLING WOMEN TO WEAR THE VEIL, BLACKING OUT ADVERTISING POSTERS THAT INCUR THEIR DISAPPROVAL AND STICKING UP NOTICES DECLARING ‘A GAY FREE ZONE.’ Again, THE LEFT’S SHRILL DEMAND FOR MULTICULTURAL TOLERANCE HAS BROUGHT A BRUTAL FORM OF INTOLERANCE TO OUR STREETS. It is not as if this breakdown in Britain’s traditional values of fair play and individual liberty has been accompanied by any compensating rise in economic prosperity. MASS IMMIGRATION HAS DRIVEN DOWN LIVING STANDARDS FOR THE WORKING-CLASS, PUSHED UP UNEMPLOYMENT, INCREASED WELFARE BILLS AND PLACED AN INTOLERABLE BURDEN ON PUBLIC SERVICES..

UNCONTROLLED IMMIGRATION HAS LED TO A SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN POVERTY WITHIN BRITAIN. ACROSS EUROPE, PUBLIC ANGER AT IMMIGRATION IS GROWING, especially in the wake of all the unrest in north Africa, which threatens to bring another tidal wave of arrivals to our shores. TOLERANCE IS AT BREAKING POINT.

The generous European post-war settlement was never meant to incorporate African witchcraft, religious oppression, racial division and poverty. That is why so many European countries, even if the face of EU fury, are strengthening their borders. The coalition must do the same in Britain by putting our own people first."

“By putting our own people first”?

Boy, oh boy, would that make a change! Unfortunatelym "our own people first" is a phrase not found in the lexicon of the political mainstream.

On 14 May 2011, the BBC reported thus:

“RISING FUEL BILLS MAY FORCE A QUARTER OF HOMES TO TURN OFF THEIR HEATING AT SOME POINT NEXT WINTER, a price comparison site claims… The Bank of England said this week that gas prices could rise by 15% later this year, and electricity by 10%.

Uswitch said that a survey of almost 1,600 of its customers carried out in January had indicated that 20% of them had turned their heating off regularly in order to save money last winter. The firm's spokesman Ann Robinson, the former chairman of Energywatch, says: ‘This time it's going to be a minimum of 25%.’

If the Bank of England's predictions are true, she calculates that the average British household will have to find an extra £148 over the next year.”

"Big Brother Britain: Government and councils to spy on ALL our phones.
Officials from the top of Government to lowly council officers will be given unprecedented powers to access details of every phone call in Britain under laws coming into force tomorrow."

The Daily Mail - 30 September 2007.


"Immigrants were given the keys to 10,000 council houses last year... The value of the homes given to foreign nationals was £1.3billion...
Researchers at the House of Commons Library estimate that since 1997, more than a third of housing built in the UK - almost 600,000 homes - has been needed because of immigration. That is three times as many homes as were needed for immigrants under the last Conservative government. The library, a team of independent researchers who carry out work for MPs, said an average of 19,000 immigrant households a year were established between 1992 and 1997. The figure has since soared to 66,000 a year, helping to price many British first-time buyers out of the market... A (government) spokesman said:

'The vast majority of immigrants find housing in the private rented sector or with friends or relatives'."

The Daily Mail - 28 September 2007.

Must be a hell of a lot of unwanted immigrants entering our country then, Mr Spokesman.

But we all knew that, didn't we?


"White British children are now a minority in almost a fifth of education authorities in England, official figures have shown.

They are outnumbered at primary and secondary schools in 29 of the 150 local education authority areas, including Birmingham, Leicester, Luton, Slough and most London boroughs. In some parts of the capital, children from ethnic minority families account for more than nine in 10 school places.

The figures were released on the day Government statistics showed it has been underestimating by a third the number of immigrants expected to come to Britain. Some 190,000 are now expected to arrive every year — an increase of 45,000 a year — fuelled by a surge in people from eastern Europe...

Figures from the Department for Children, Schools and Families showed that last year saw the biggest year-on-year increase in pupils from ethnic minorities. Across the country, they account for almost 22 per cent of pupils at primary school compared to 20.6 per cent last year. At secondary level, numbers rose at a similar rate, to 17.7 per cent.

In all, about one in eight pupils — some 800,000 — do not speak English as a first language and numbers are thought to have doubled in the past decade.
The Conservatives said the sheer number of non-English speakers in state schools was putting a strain on resources. Damian Green, the shadow immigration minister, said:

‘What is important is whether or not these children arrive in school able to speak English. If they can't, and they are being taught in overcrowded classrooms, this makes it much harder for teachers to do their job’."

The Daily Telegraph - 28 September 2007.

I wonder why it’s taken the Tories 50 years to state the bleeding obvious?
Too late now, Damian. The damage has been well and truly done. The British working classes were saying, "no more immigration" on a regular basis throughout the 1950s, you know, when your lot were in power.

Why didn’t you so something about it then?

The a***hole factor, I expect.


"This report shows what could happen unless we take action now. Frankly, it underlines the need for swift and sweeping changes to the immigration system in the next 12 months. Migration is bringing new wealth but also new worries to Britain".

Liam Byrne, Gordon Brown's Immigration Minister – The Times – 28 September 2007.

Byrne was citing an Office for National Statistics report which suggested that 190,000 immigrants will arrive every year for the next quarter of a century. Two years ago those who compiled this report estimated that just 145,000 would come. The figures imply that 2 million will arrive every decade until 2031.

4.75 million more foreigners, in other words. The actual total, outside of self-serving officialdom, will undoubtedly be much greater than this.

A friend of mine, who was once a died-in-the-wool theoretical Communist (he is now much more in tune and sympathetic with the plight of the immigration-battered British poor) phoned me from Bournemouth at 1.30 a.m. on Wedneday morning.
He assured me that, as regards the current overwhelming, Brit-destroying levels of immigration, the MAJORITY talk throughout the various behind-the-scenes meetings at the Labour Conference was CONGRATULATORY! Indeed, many were, even now, for SCRAPPING ALL IMMIGRATION CONTROLS!

Whatever Liam Byrne, Gordon Brown et al say, to get the lemmings to vote against their best interests yet again, the traitorous New Labour activist is thinking and saying something very different behind the scenes.

And I would bet my behind that Liam Byrne, Gordon Brown et al know this.


"We have created 2.7 million jobs and two million have gone to British workers."
Peter Hain, Secretary of State for Work - The Sun - 28 September 2007.

Britain's foreign workforce has increased by 50 per cent in the last ten years. Over the same period, the percentage of British workers in employment rose only by just three per cent. The 1,800,000 employed aliens now outnumber the 1.65million people on unemployment benefits.

The Sun reported that, the day before Hain, who is South African, congratulated the above statistics, a historic restaurant in Dorchester put up a staff vacancy sign written only in POLISH!

On the same day that the restaurant sign was put up, the Office for National Statistics reported that official forecasts were now suggesting that 190,000 new immigrants would arrive here every year, a 30 per cent increase on two years ago. (The forecast did not include illegal immigrants and the 400,000-plus students coming into our country every year)

Shadow Work and Pensions Secretary Chris Grayling said:

"When Gordon Brown talks about British jobs for British workers he’s being a hypocrite. We’ve got to have immigration controls."

Sir Andrew Green, of Migrationwatch, said:

"Housing demand simply for immigrants will go up from 200 a day to 260 over the next 20 years."

As these foreigners have been encouraged to enter our country by this treacherous government, the number of our youngsters neither working nor in education now stands at 1.26million, one-in-five households is now entirely dependent on benefits and, in parts of England, only in ten schoolchildren comes from a white British family.


“They basically locked her up and threw away the key and she was stuck in the system... What a waste of a poor, innocent girl’s life.”

David Gambell - The Sun - 27 September 2007.

David was speaking of his sister, Jean Gambell, who was “certified” indefinitely in 1937, after she was wrongly accused of taking 13p whilst cleaning a doctor’s surgery.
Despite the fact that the 13p was, subsequently, found, Jean spent 70 years in institutions.

Her brothers, who thought she was dead, came across a letter sent by a care home to their mother, who died 25 years ago. David said:

“I was about to throw it in the bin when I saw a name in the corner, Jean Gambell. I rang and they said our sister was there.”

The two brothers travelled from their homes in Liverpool to see Jean at the home in Macclesfield, Cheshire. Staff warned them she was deaf and may not remember them.

David said:

“We wrote on a piece of card ‘Hello Jean, we’re your brothers’. But she took one look at us and said, ‘Hello Alan, hello David’, and flung her arms around us. Nowadays there are appeals, but back then a doctor could sign away a life with the stroke of a pen".

Oh, THEY still do it nowadays, David, if THEY think THEY can get away with it.
THEY just do it a bit differently, that's all.


"I understand the concept of using a mascot. However, why wasn't more thought put into the development of the character?"

A Metropolitan Police sergeant complaining that a "Blunkett Bobby" mascot was unrepresentative- The Daily Mail – 27 September 2007.

The Sergeant said the figure, which is white with blue eyes and blond hair, risked leaving Asian and women officers "isolated".

Must’ve been an evil white racist who created him, Sarge.


"Our kids are being threatened with having their throats slit. It's happening every day but no one is taking any notice. This used to be a good school but it's not any more."

Mother-of-three, Carla Spanton, describing the situation at Luton Junior School in Chatham after a Slovakian mother battered 10-year-old British schoolboy, Jake Stedman, repeatedly with 2-foot piece of piping - The Daily Mail - 26 September 2007.

Carla said parents were pulling their children out of the school following a large intake of Slovakian pupils over the summer. Father-of-one, Shane Treeby, added:

"The trouble is going to spill over and it's going to happen soon. There's been a load of attacks recently in and around the school with gangs of Slovakians going round beating up the local kids. That boy getting hit was just one example, but there's stabbings and all sorts round here which is not getting reported."

About ONE THIRD of around 400 pupils at the school are believed to be Slovakian-born.

A statement issued by Medway Council on behalf of the school said:

"Medway schools are typically happy and calm places where children from different backgrounds learn together and get on well. We work closely with the police, community support officers and the wider community to play our part in providing good race relations among pupils, parents and the wider community."

THEY are at war with us, ladies and gentlemen, THEY really are.


"I think we have to rewrite, redevelop, our national story so that it is inclusive… I would say it is that we need to revisit some parts of that national heritage… Now let's rewrite that story, let's use our heritage to rewrite that story so it is truly inclusive."

Trevor Phillips, the Head of the Human Rights and Equality Commission – BBC News – 25 September 2007.

Phillips, who is black, was speaking at an event organised by The Smith Institute, the Heritage Lottery Fund and the Young Foundation.


"Rationing is the great unspoken reality. The only people who refuse to mention the 'r-word' are the media and the politicians, who continue to want to promise everything for everyone in order to win elections."

Dr Michael Dixon, Chairman of the NHS Alliance - BBC News - 25 September 2007.

In September 2007, Doctor Magazine reported that 16% of the medical staff, who had responded to a questionnaire, had said that rationing had been responsible for patients dying sooner than they ought. 53% said patients had suffered as a result. 9 years previously, a similar survey found that just 20% were suffering similarly.


"In our repressive world of thought crime and guilt-speak, it now takes great courage to tell the truth, even when it’s obvious…

Julie Spence, the chief constable of Cambridgeshire, is one of them. Last week she courageously said the unsayable and pointed out that the large numbers of recent immigrants are causing serious problems in her manor. Dangerous crime, such as drink driving, human trafficking, credit card fraud and knife crime, has gone up substantially and her officers are now having to deal with people speaking nearly 100 different foreign languages. The cost in translation fees for Cambridgeshire is close to £1m a year...

A large and sudden influx of immigrants, whatever advantages they might bring, will inevitably come at very great cost... What’s true of Cambridgeshire is true of the country as a whole... How strange it is, and how late, that it is beginning to be possible to say such a thing without being denounced as a neo-Nazi.

The Labour government, in its 10 years of office, has allowed more than a million new people from all over the world to settle in this country. That is little short of a social revolution. Twenty-five per cent of babies born here have at least one foreign-born parent. Several large cities will have a nonwhite majority within a few years. We have seen almost uncontrolled immigration - Labour has lost control of our borders…

Big city hospitals are weighed down with masses of new patients who don’t speak English, or who won’t see male doctors or who cannot get GPs and clog up casualty departments… As for schools, I cannot understand why nobody makes the obvious point that standards in schools are bound to suffer when many tens of different languages are spoken among the schoolchildren; how can any child progress in reading, writing and talking English, and being acculturated as an English-speaking Briton, when the rest of the class don’t speak it?

At our local school in west London there are more than 90 mother tongues, and a high proportion of recent immigrants or asylum seekers… is a perfect recipe for collapsing standards in education, which is what we’ve got.

If the broken society means anything, it means one in which the civil bonds between individuals, their families, their neighbours and their institutions are seriously damaged. It’s perfectly obvious that multiculturalism was bound to sever the ties that bind; too much diversity means not enough solidarity, and a broken society, as we have seen, and will see more…

Even Trevor Phillips has now spoken of sleepwalking to segregation and even his own outfit, the Commission for Racial Equality… published a grim and angry report last week about a "fracturing" society, growing ethnic segregation and growing extremism.
It’s good that such people recognise it, but it is absolutely maddening that they, WHO CONTRIBUTED SO MUCH TO IT THEMSELVES, DON’T UNDERSTAND THEIR OWN RESPONSIBILITY FOR IT. It was also quite sickening to hear Liam Byrne, the minister for borders and immigration, cravenly welcoming Spence’s comments last week: "It’s because we want to hear voices like Julie Spence’s," he said, "that I set up the Migrant Impacts Forum. It is "vital", he said, "to consider the social impact of immigration when making migration decisions."

Indeed it is vital, AND WAS VITAL 10 YEARS AGO, AND 30 YEARS AGO, WHEN ALL GOVERNMENTS, ESPECIALLY HIS, FAILED TO DO SO…

Of the complex problems caused by mass immigration one of the easiest to see and to quantify is in housing. We all know there is a housing crisis and a terrible shortage of affordable homes. On Newsnight last week Sir Andrew Green of Migrationwatch UK pointed out – and his figures, based always on government figures, are not challenged even by Whitehall – that we will have to build 200 houses a day for the next 20 years to meet predicted housing needs…

Liam Byrne then pointed out that Gordon Brown has promised to build 3m new homes. What did not emerge in the programme is that one-third of all new households are being formed by immigrants and, therefore, 1m of Brown’s promised 3m will have to go to immigrants.

Nor is the government very keen to quantify the net benefit to the economy made by immigrants. They may swell productivity but they also swell the population, and will also need schools and hospitals and housing, and care in their old age. According to Migrationwatch, the net effect of immigrant labour on GDP is £1 per week per person.
IT IS SHOCKING THAT THIS MASSIVE, HISTORIC CHANGE WAS FORCED UPON US WITHOUT CONSULTATION AND WITHOUT OUR CONSENT.

WHO WANTED IT? WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR IT? AND WHY?

In casting about for an answer, perhaps it’s worth considering the Mori survey into black and ethnic minority attitudes to voting and to politics at the 2005 general election. Of those who voted, 58% CHOSE LABOUR... I hope that isn’t a thought crime."

Minette Marris - The Daily Mail - 23 September 2007.


"Foreign nationals are now responsible for more than one in five crimes committed in London, police figures revealed yesterday. Around a third of all sex offences and a half of all frauds in the capital are carried out by the non-British citizens. The biggest offenders are Poles, who have flooded into Britain in record numbers since the expansion of the EU. They were responsible for 2,310 crimes in the first six months of this year - including 583 violent attacks and 32 sex offences.

Romanians, who joined the EU in January this year, are fifth on the list with more than 1,000 offences, an eightfold rise on the same period in 2006, according to Metropolitan Police figures for solved crimes."

A Daily Mail article titled, A Fifth of London Crimes Committed by Poles - 23 September 2007.

What the above article does not bother to mention is this: most of the rest of the crime committed in the city is committed by foreigners of the second and third-generation immigrant variety.


“These guys are professionals. They’ll take everything you’ve got and leave you heartbroken... Now I’m alone and thousands of pounds out of pocket.”

Emma - The Sun - 22 September 2007.

Mother-of-4 Emma and and her friend Sarah were seduced by beach bums, Saikou and Modu, during a week’s holiday in The Gambia. They later returned and got engaged. Emma fell pregnant and she and Sarah sent £8,000 for the men to come to Britain and get married. But just before Emma’s fiancé, Saikou, flew over, she was told that he had married another British woman, using her own money.
So, Emma puts two fingers up at British men and gets herself pregnant by an African gigolo.

Then she and her equally fatuous pal want to bring their would-be hubbies over here.
I wonder if Emma and Sarah are aware that an extrapolation between the 2005 British Crime Survey and the 2001 Census informs us that a black person is 110 times more likely to kill a white person in Britain than the other way around.
Seems to me that everyone got lucky.

The black lads, their white conquests and, most of all, US.

The fact that Emma and Sarah had to pay eight grand for their luck is money well spent, I reckon.

The average, dim Big Brother groupie usually has to pay rather more for the lessons that Big Brother doesn't bother to teach her.


"OUR SOCIETY IS FRACTURING. THE PACE OF CHANGE IN BRITAIN OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS HAS UNSETTLED MANY... BONDS OF SOLIDARITY ACROSS DIFFERENT GROUPS HAVE REDUCED AND TENSIONS BETWEEN PEOPLE HAVE INCREASED."

The Commission for Racial Equality's "manifesto and legacy" document, A Lot Done, A Lot To Do, Our Vision for an Integrated Britain - 20 September 2007.

After this stunningly truthful assessment of the non-happy-clappy state of play, Nick Johnson, the report's author, reverted to PC type and said:

"Let's not kid ourselves...An ethnic minority British baby born today is sadly still more likely to go on to receive poor quality education, be paid less, live in sub-standard housing, be in poor health and be discriminated against in other ways than his or her white contemporaries. This persistent, long-standing inequality is quite simply unfair and unacceptable...

Rumours and perceptions of injustice in such circumstances can trigger division and conflict which, in some cases, translates into violence on the streets but more often leads to the clustering of different groups and the erection of invisible barriers to keep others out.

The simple fact is despite the progress that has been made, if you are an ethnic minority in Britain you are still more likely to be stopped by the police, be excluded from school, suffer poorer health treatment and live in poor housing. The language may have changed but the reality is racial inequality is alive and kicking.
DELIVERING INTEGRATION SHOULD BE A NATIONAL PRIORITY"!

Yep, bring on the melting pot and get those dinosaur Brits all gone.

We know what you mean, Nick.


"Studies... have thrown doubt on the effectiveness of CCTV cameras. A report by the criminal justice charity Nacro in 2002 concluded that the money spent on cameras would be better used on street lighting, which has been shown to cut crime by up to 20 per cent."

The Evening Standard - 19 September 2007.

It's not about Big Brother keeping an eye on the criminals. It's about Big Brother keeping an eye on the rest of us.


"When they arrive they think they can do the same thing as in the country they have come from. There were a lot of people who, because they used to carry knives for protection, they think they can carry knives here...

The profile of the county (Cambridgeshire) has changed dramatically and this simply isn't taken into account when the government allocates funding... We need to maintain the basic public services infrastructure which means increasing the number of officers we have."

Julie Spence, Chief Constable of Cambridgeshire Police - BBC News - 19 September 2007.

Ms Spence said that her force needed more staff and resources to cope with the pressures caused by the sudden influx of migrants. In the space of one year, drink-drive figures showed a 17-fold rise in arrests of foreigners.

The BBC added:

"Since 2004, 83,000 East Europeans have registered to work in Eastern England.
Introducing an in-depth report into the impact of migration, Mrs Spence said the county had changed dramatically. Police officers were now dealing with close to 100 languages without having the right skills - a situation which had landed the force with a translation bill of at least £800,000.

The force had also seen rises in some crimes which could be directly associated with migration. These included drink-driving involving foreign nationals and the emergence of an "international dimension" to crimes including cannabis production, human trafficking and credit card skimming. Mrs Spence said knife crime was another problem area. She told BBC Radio 4's Today programme a lot of people who carried knives for protection in their home country believe they can do the same in the UK.
The force's report warned that officers had seen increases in "critical incidents" and tensions within some communities fuelled by local resentment towards newcomers".

Aye, Big Brother has a lot to answer for, that's for sure.

Subsequent to Chief Constable Spence's statement, Police Authority Chairman Christine Weston said:

"Across the force, we now face costs of interpretation of more than £1 million per year. Ten years ago this cost was less than £80,000. As a police authority and a force we are coping with this issue but it is regrettable that the Home Office has not altered our budget to take this new financial pressure into account. I support comments which suggest funding for shire forces does not keep pace with the increasing demands of ever more diverse populations."

Peter Fahy, Chief Constable of Cheshire and ACPO's spokesman on race, said:

"The East of England and areas such as Slough have seen huge changes in the make-up of their population... Most forces have seen huge increases in their spending on interpreters. Police forces have had to dedicate resources to establishing links with new communities and deal with problems of tensions with others… It is unhealthy if people feel that they cannot talk about immigration for fear of being labelled racists as this clearly only generates further resentment."


"The influx of Romanian migrants has led to an explosion in crime in this country… As recent members of the EU, Romanians have had free access to Britain only since January 1. Yet in the first six months of this year, police say, they were responsible for 1,080 offences. During the same period in 2006, only 135 such crimes were recorded.

In an ironic twist Romanian authorities say crime there is dropping, fuelling suspicions that some offenders may have moved here... Stan Bitlan, head of the police force in Ialomita County, Romania, said:

'Yes there is a connection between what is happening here and the UK. What they are doing in the UK appears here in Romania in the form of luxury cars and houses.'
Vasile Save, the mayor of Tandarei - a town that has seen 800 inhabitants leave in the first six months of this year - admits there is less crime in the area He said:

'I would say it's pretty quiet now in terms of public order in the community'...

A leaked Home Office memo said an estimated 45,000 potential criminals from Romania and Bulgaria, which also joined in January this year, would travel to Britain following EU expansion".

The Daily Mail - 19 September 2007.

So, the government knew the grotequely detrimental effect that allowing these countries to join the EU would have upon the British people, yet they did nothing to prevent their accession. In fact, Tony Blair was one of the keenest for them to join.

I say our politicians have betrayed us. I say they have our worst interests at heart. I say they are at war with those who elected them.
What do you say?


"Britain's evolution from one of the most ossified economies in the years following World War II to one of the most open economies in the world is reflected in the intellectual journey of Gordon Brown."

Alan Greenspan, former head of the Federal Reserve in America - The Daily Telegraph - 17 September 2007.

In his book Age of Turbulence, Adventures in a New World, Greenspan says wee Gordie was a strong ally when it came to sitting down with other finance ministers and bankers at the Group of Seven meetings of rich industrial countries. After praising him for his commitment to "globalisation and free markets", the fact that he "did not seem interested in reversing much of what Margaret Thatcher had changed" and turning Britain into "the most open economy in the world", Greenspan said:

"He was a great support in 'proselytising about flexibility'... You haven't had a taint of a recession for an extremely long period of time, and a good part of that is the flexibility that came out of the crush between Scargill and Thatcher. That was the defining moment, and to their credit Blair and Brown did not endeavour to unwind it. They recognised that there was something fundamentally good for British labour in having a flexible economy."

Tell that to the out-of-work, Alan. Tell it to the futureless kids on drugs. Greenspan also said:

"It's like tough love, as we call it. It's unhappy-making, but in the end it works."
It's unhappy-making, Alan, and, in the end, it works for money-men like you, Blair and Brown, but for the futureless kids? - Bulls**t!

Greenspan finished his Telegraph conversation by saying:

"I am saddened that it is politically inconvenient to acknowledge what everyone knows: the Iraq war is largely about oil".

Which is true. However, the former head of the Fed Res wasn't inclined to point out that most of the Neoconservatives, who were responsible for encouraging the most intellectually challenged US President in history into making war upon Iraq, were Jewish. And thus it could be just as easy to point out what everyone also knows: "the Iraq war is largely about" Israel.

This is not something that a bloke like Greenspan was ever going to be likely to "acknowledge". You see, he is Jewish too.


"Physical attack. Pupil jumped on my back and punched me in the base of the neck. I turned around and observed the pupil laughing and shouting abuse... Pupil assaulted me on two more occasions along the corridor."

Diary entry written by a teacher at the South Chadderton School in Oldham, Lancashire - The Daily Mail - 16 September 2007.

The diary reveals a 3-year catalogue of violence and abuse by out-of-control pupils. It tells how teenagers:

Viciiously attacked staff and fellow pupils; brandished potentially lethal airguns during lessons; launched foul-mouthed tirades at teachers trying to keep order; terrified girls in classrooms with explicit sex taunts; children repeatedly hurled pens and sweets at him, stole his personal possessions and locked him out of class and regularly vandalised school property and bragged about drug-taking.. They also called him a "nobhead", "fruitcake", "faggot" and "w***er" and one branded him a "f***ing c***" for asking him to take off a baseball cap during a lesson.

The diary also claims pupils warned him that his family home would be firebombed and a teenager threatened to kill him. This person got one hour's detention as a result.
One entry in the diary said:

"Explicit sexual behaviour. Pupil highly disruptive, standing up holding a newspaper covering the middle of his body then thrusting his hips repeatedly into the paper in an explicit manner in the direction of the girls sat in the desk in front of him. Followed by the pupil putting his hands down his trousers and making dramatic jerking actions with his hand in his trousers."

This adolescent was banned from school for 72 hours. Another entry said:

"Highly erratic, disturbing, offensive and possibly criminal behaviour by pupil including making sexually explicit demands of another pupil. Physically confronted a female pupil and threatened to assault her unless she 'sorted' him out, at the same time looking down at his trousers and gesturing with his other hand. Female pupil plainly distressed."

This youth was excluded from school for a week.

After the diary was made public by the National Union of Teachers, Oldham Councillors SUSPENDED THE WHISTLEBLOWER! In March 2007, the school had been rated "satisfactory" by Ofsted who also said that behaviour was "generally good".

About a fifth of South Chadderton's pupils are from ethnic minorities and a higher-than-average number don't speak English as their first language.
Official figures for England and Wales reveal that, in 2006, 221 staff were seriously injured by pupils and needed more than three days off to recover, a 21 per cent rise in such attacks in just 5 years.

Secondary schools were forced to expel 7,990 pupils last year and suspend another 343,840. In just one year, 365 under-11s from 250 schools in the East Midlands were expelled for having offensive weapons.

"Education, education, education", eh Tony?

Yeah right.


"I would have thought that sort of teaching can be little more than brainwashing at best... I'm afraid it's another move by the Government and the politicians to use education as a tool to change society instead of concentrating on having an education system to provide individuals with the foundations for a successful life."
Nick Seaton, the Chairman of the Campaign For Real Education in York - The York Press - 15 September 2007.

Nick was complaining after York's kiddiewinks had been lumbered with a Global Dimension Advanced Skills Expert.

This in order to teach them "global citizenship, anti-discrimination and human rights".

The York Press added:

"Children as young as nine are being taught about human rights and global issues in York - sparking claims they are being "brainwashed" by political correctness".

York councillor, Ian Gillies, also said:

"This is ridiculous. Children need to know the basics of education first before they start making judgements and start being influenced by people with an agenda."


Supported by the Centre For Global Education which is funded by the Yorkshire and Humber Global Schools Association, Nicola Betts was not phased by this criticism and said:

"My role as a global dimension AST involves embedding the message that we are all responsible human beings. I am very excited to start this role and to be given the opportunity to develop new relationships with staff and pupils built around the global dimension and exploring new ways to help children recognise that the choices we make affect both people locally and also globally."

Yep, our Nicola sounds like an Orwellian brainwasher alright.

Just what the Global Villagers ordered.


"Muslim leaders have vehemently refuted reports that half of the UK’s mosques... are controlled by a radical brand of Islam with a hatred of western values.
An investigation by a national newspaper claimed almost half of Britain’s 1,350 mosques, including 59 out of 75, across Oldham, Blackburn, Burnley, Preston and Bolton, promote teachings of the Deobandi movement.

The report claimed Deobandi is an ultra-conservative movement and one of its influential preachers, Riyadh ul Haq, had supported armed jihad and preached contempt for Jews, Christians and Hindus. The article... claimed that talks and sermons at an influential Deobandi seminary near Bury, where Mr Ul Haq trained, exposed muslims to a hatred of Western society".

The Asian News - 14 September 2007.


"Issues arose in the first longer-term placement of two children, including potential indicators of child sexual abuse, which were inadequately investigated, analysed, understood or acted upon. It seems to us that some staff members failed to exercise the professional judgement which they should for fear of being seen to be discriminatory".

Brian Parrott, Chairman of an independent inquiry into the behaviour of Wakefield Council staff, who placed a number of foster children with two serial homosexual abusers - as reported by the BBC - 12 September 2007.

The inquiry's report stated that the fostering panel which approved Craig Faunch and Ian Wathey had failed to act on suspicions for fear of being seen to be discriminatory. As a result of this politically correct fear, "a catalogue of sex offences against boys" had been committed by the perverts.

Patricia Garbutt, the council oficial responsible for children and young people, said:

"Some of the practice and management systems we had in place at the time covered by this inquiry failed children in our care. Action has been taken by senior management to rectify those failings. Our first concern is and always has been for the young people who were abused by this couple... I am confident that things have improved - and are improving - since this very sad case came to light... We will learn lessons from this inquiry."

"Learn lessons", eh, Patricia?

Now where have I heard that said before? You know when you said, "our first concern has been for the young people who were abused by this couple", you were lying, weren't you? If the kids had been your first concern you wouldn't have placed them with a pair of puffs just to fulfil your 1-in-20 homosexual quota, would you?

"Learn lessons"?

I can imagine our Pat teaching the jobsworths how best to keep such foul, PC misbehaviour covered up in future but beyond that, I can't imagine her teaching any new anti-perv lessons to the social workers most responsible for Wakefield's most vulnerable being buggered by Wakefield's most perverted.

"The problem isn't racism. It's the tidal wave of immigrants!

All right, you know about the Government's latest move to outlaw beggars? Do you really think it's really about beggars? It isn't. It's about immigrant-beggars, who now throng our streets."

"One of the most responsible for the current situation in Iraq".

General Sir Mike Jackson, former Chief of the General Staff and head of the British Army during the invasion of Iraq, speaking of former US Defence Secretary, Donald Rumsfeld - The Daily Telegraph - 1 Sepember 2007.

Sir Mike described the disbanding of the Iraqi army and security forces after the overthrow of Saddam as "very short-sighted" and added:

"We should have kept the Iraqi security services in being and put them under the command of the Coalition."

Yep.


"He pulled at her sleeve and demanded sex and when she refused he attacked her. He found a van belonging to a builder parked nearby and forced the victim into the back where he started to beat her... Afterwards the victim was helped from the van by police and paramedics. She said to one police officer: 'I thought he was going to kill me. Thank you for saving my life'.

She was covered from head to toe in blood and bruises, she had a bruised eye, swollen lip and cuts to the back of her head."

Robert Linford, prosecuting, speaking of Michal Piotr Kwidzinski a 6ft 5in Pole who was in the process of raping an English woman for the third time - Daily Mail - 1 September 2007.

Kwidzinski had been in the country for just one week. Malcolm Clarke, for the defence, said:

"He is someone of good character... He comes from a small village in Poland and wasn't used to the bright lights of Newquay. He is a Catholic man who prays every day for forgiveness and the forgiveness of his victim."

Yeah right.

Sentencing him to nine years in prison, Judge John Neligan said it was "pointless" for him to recommend deportation after he had served his sentence because of "the current state of the law".

Wake up England.


"The response to falling numbers taking up a subject, or students appearing to find it difficult to get high grades, should not be ‘let's make the questions easier and easier and easier’… It is absolute short-termism to simply say we can solve things by making the tests easier. I am very much against the watering down of GCSEs."

Clarissa Farr, Headmistress of St Paul's School for Girls in West London, telling the truth – The Daily Mail – 31 August 2007.

And the politicians always insist that the exams are not getting easier.

Miss Farr’s school had just broken GCSE records with the biggest haul of top grades ever earned. Pupils passed 99 per cent of exams at grades A* and A, with 86 per cent at grade A*. Her warning came as figures from the Independent Schools Council showed that pupils in fee-paying schools scored three times as many As and A* grades as the average for teenagers across the country.


"I'm proud to welcome to Downing Street the most inspiring, the greatest and most courageous leader of our generation… I'm looking forward also to the statue being inaugurated in your honour tomorrow in London."

"Is it any wonder if, heaven forbid, soldiers are killed in a war? They don't observe the Sabbath, they don't observe the Torah, they don't pray, they don't put on phylacteries every day. Is it any wonder that they're killed? It's no wonder. May the Almighty have mercy on them and bring them back to religion."

Rabbi Yosef, Ovadia Yosef, spiritual leader of the orthodox Jewish party Shas, and former Chief Rabbi of Israel - August 25 2007 - reported by BBC News - 27 August 2007.

In other words you Israeli lads, if you're not an observant Jew, you've had it. If you are, on the other hand, you won't get shot!


"There is still a majority of honest and hard-working MPs in the House of Commons. But it is also a refuge of last resort for an eclectic collection of creeps, cranks and careerists. I was permanently astonished by the willingness of so many to put their consciences into storage and vote for measures they did not believe in and against those they did."

Martin Bell - The Daily Mail - 25 August 2007.

Bell added:

"I sat in astonishment as I watched another MP trade his vote for a peerage. There was no doubt about it, he knew exactly what he was doing. He had a reputation for integrity and the issue was one on which his vote would carry some weight. The Whips were watching. The MP in question justified it on an argument of unity and the debt that he owed to his party. Now grandly titled, he sits in the House of Lords.

On becoming the independent MP for Tatton, Cheshire, in May 1997, I watched and listened to get the feel of the place and judge what kind of parliament it was. After a couple of months, the uneasy feeling dawned on me that it resembled nothing so much as the old East German Volkskammer, where the system counted for everything and the people for nothing; where the place was stuffed to the rafters with stooges and the parties were mere husks of what they pretended to be...

In May 1997, Labour swept into power on a tide of popular rebellion against Tory 'sleaze', both real and perceived, and on the offer of a different kind of politics. Its manifesto promised: 'We will clean up politics.'

Those words hang in the air to this day. Did New Labour's leaders really say that and did they mean it? The answer to the first is yes, to the second no...
Sir Alistair Graham, chairman of the Committee on Standards in Public Life, was among those pushed overboard. On leaving office earlier this year, he said:
'My greatest regret has been the apparent failure to persuade the Government to place high ethical standards at the heart of its thinking and, most importantly, behaviour'...

Apart from the Iraq disaster, on the issue on which (the Blair government) was elected, public trust in public life, its record was wholly and unforgivably negative. It traded in patronage. It squandered a golden opportunity to draw people in and reinvent the entire culture of politics. It even dodged the effect of its own reforms on party funding. And this was the party that declared:
'Our mission in politics is to rebuild the bond of trust between government and the people'...

The Labour scandals reached right into the heart of Government, touching senior Ministers, some of whom were repeat offenders. Some survived, others did not. Blair was judge and jury on allegations of ministerial misconduct. He ruled like the Sun King, Louis XIV. He saw no reason, he said, to fine-tune the code. But when an MP was accused of breaking the rules of the House of Commons, then that was a matter for the House itself...

For three-and-a-half years I sat on the Standards and Privileges Committee as a parade of MPs came before us, including some Ministers of the Crown. It was instructive to see which of the committee's 11 members left their party allegiances at the door. There was a group who were consistently sympathetic to Labour MPs, especially those of Ministerial rank, accused of a breach of the code of conduct...
This was also the Parliament that undermined its own Standards Commissioner, Elizabeth Filkin, with a disgraceful whispering campaign against her by Ministers and backbenchers. She was eventually let go for doing her job too well. This also undermined trust in the House of Commons. I doubt if it can be restored under the present Speaker, Michael Martin...

Large sums of money flowed from wealthy individuals to political parties. The leaders of those parties nominated the donors and lenders for high honours. On the face of it, it was a clear case of corruption. So arise, Lord Megabucks. Step this way, Lady Cashpoint. The means are there to secure you a seat at the grander end of the Palace of Westminster...

The irony was that Blair was a most gifted apologiser. But he apologised only for the things he did not do, such as the slave trade or the shooting of Army deserters. He was unrepentant about the things that he did, such as trading in peerages or waging illegal wars. Here was a man who sent the Armed Forces to war on the basis of a grand self-deception...

To the end of his premiership he retained his faith – not a soldier's faith, but a civilian's – in the effectiveness of hard power. He never understood that the weapons of shock and awe, deployed in a war among the people, recruit more than they kill. And military commanders are not magicians: they are the managers of organised violence. The 15th Century Dutch scholar Desiderius Erasmus said war is sweet to those with no experience of it. Neither Blair nor anyone in his Government – not a single Minister at any level – has ever worn the Queen's uniform or known anything of the reality of warfare...

The untold story of the war in Iraq was the mood of unease that turned to anger among the soldiers sent to fight it. They were in the front line as the politicians were not. As soon as it was clear that the weapons of mass destruction did not exist, there was a groundswell of disquiet in the ranks of the Armed Forces, especially the Army...

On a visit to Basra last December, I met old friends from earlier conflicts I had covered for the BBC. They had the gravest doubts about this one and were well aware that their lives were on the line every day for no sufficient reason. Many were on their third or even fourth tour of duty in Iraq. One was an officer who had seen the conflict through all its phases, from liberation to occupation, and from shock and awe to hearts and minds to a qualified cut and run.

'I'll tell you what this feels like,' he said. 'It's like being a German in the Wehrmacht in France in the Second World War. We, too, are an occupation force. That's how it seems to me'...

Today's Army represents the best of British, as the House of Commons does not. Never in my lifetime has the Army been so overstretched and over-committed, undervalued and under-equipped, ill-directed and ill-used. This has happened on New Labour's watch.

The new politics that we were promised back in 1997 turned out to be the old politics redecorated with bells and whistles, Cool Britannia, surfeits of spin, glittering promises and a great cascade of peerages...

Step by step and surge by surge, the parallels between Vietnam and Iraq grow ever closer. But there is not yet a memorial wall to those who have died in Iraq. It is still too soon. We have no idea of the size of wall we shall need. We owe it to future generations to explain why. We cannot do so without a full accounting by those responsible."

Yeah, tw*ts, aren't they, Martin?


"This week it was announced that more Britons are leaving - or should that read fleeing? - the country than at any time since the great exodus to Australia in the 1960s. So much has now become hateful here that, for the first time in my life, I feel like joining them".

Philip Norman - The Daily Mail - 25 August 2007.

Norman also said this:

"When an 11-year-old boy is gunned down, you have to ask what kind of country Britain has become?... And what kind of people we have turned into. As 11-year-old Rhys Jones innocently kicked a football round the carpark of a Liverpool pub on Wednesday evening, he was shot in the neck by a teenager in a hoodie top, who then fled the scene on a BMX bike. Rhys died there in the car park, cradled in the arms of his mother, Melanie.

These horrific events come so thick and fast, and so surpass one another in pointless savagery, that their victims' names fade from the collective memory in days, even hours…

Twenty-odd years ago, I returned to live in Britain after spending 18 months in New York. I remember with what relief I left the Big Apple's supersized danger and hysteria for what seemed, by comparison, a quiet, wet, green little island in the Atlantic where nothing could really harm you. While discovering the fundamental heartlessness of American life, I had appreciated, as never before, the ancient British qualities of self control, politeness and kindness. And, believe it or not, in the Eighties they were all still largely intact. A few days after my homecoming,

I remember stopping on a street in Central London, struck by how normal and civilised everyone looked. All of which set me thinking this week about just how much our national character has changed over the past 20 years; how we have lost, or deliberately discarded, so many of the qualities which once made us unique in every positive way; how Britishness is increasingly equated with brutishness. What we once watched in American films about New York's Lower East Side is now in our midst, wherever we live…

Teenage gang warfare - of which Rhys was probably an innocent victim - and gun and knife-crime, are steeply on the rise, and admitted by the Government to be so, even as we are simultaneously assured that crime figures are 'falling'. The hearts of major cities, even of once-tranquil country towns, are turned into no-go areas by drunken, rampaging hordes every weekend. Elderly people are afraid to venture out of their homes after dark.

The threat of mindless violence hangs over everyone who deals with the public, from shopkeepers, taxi-drivers and railway employees to schoolteachers and NHS workers. This is not just paranoia. Paranoia is unjustified. But no one can say that the fear most Britons live in today is without reason - and everyone has their own story to tell.

On New Year's Eve two years ago, in our North London neighbourhood, a teenage boy had to be hospitalised after being beaten up. His crime? Calling out 'Happy New Year' to a passing car…Everywhere, there is a callousness, a contempt for human feelings, which was never there before. Nowadays, British visitors to New York return marvelling at the city's atmosphere of relative calm and the politeness and helpfulness of its inhabitants...

The most obvious cause of all this is the tide of alcohol swilling through the country, deepened by the Blair government's insane sanctioning of round-the-clock pub opening… Never in my lifetime has the country had a drink problem this obvious - the boozing crowds too big for most pubs to hold, and so have to spill out onto the pavement; the pretty young girls as well as silly-macho boys, screaming, fighting, puking, publicly urinating or passing out in the gutter…

Police, though plentiful enough in their sherbet lemon flak jackets during terrorist emergencies, have virtually disappeared from our streets on a daily basis, preferring to stay inside their dwindling number of stations occupied with paperwork or fatuous PR. Beat bobbies of the old school used to discourage much casual yobbery by their very presence, supplemented by the occasional judicious clip around the ear. Instead, they now give out referee's red cards or Asbos that the yobs regard as badges of honour, or attempt to gain street-cred by patrolling on skateboards.

Last weekend, yet another socalled "think tank" recycled the current wisdom that more police on the streets would not help. Everyone but ivory-tower academics and mindless cost-cutters knows this is nonsense. Near the spot where Rhys Jones was murdered, a mobile police station had been promised - but was then scaled down to yet another CCTV camera."

It's called war, Mr Norman.

THEY are at war with us. THEY being the PC Crowd, the politicians and the media darlings. You're a media darling, aren't you? How many times have you mentioned this stuff since you've been a journalist? I can assure you that this has been happening for a very long time now. I reckon you're writing about it at present because it's getting closer to the leafy suburb where you live.

Welcome to our world, Mr Norman.

Australian politician, Peter Costello, said this in coversation with Tony Jones of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation - 23 August 2005.


"The father of Gordon Brown's new International Development Minister Baroness Shriti Vadera owns a Ugandan tea plantation where workers earn as little as 62p a day. Nicknamed 'Shriti the Shriek' for her vocal demands on civil servants, Lady Vadera, 45, was appointed by Mr Brown in the reshuffle after he became Prime Minister.

The former investment banker has worked for Mr Brown for the past eight years and been regarded as a key part of his 'magic circle' of advisers".

"In light of the current international climate, it was insensitive and in bad taste. I cannot believe they thought people were going to laugh. No one would want to curtail freedom of speech, but it's hard to differentiate this from downright bullying."

The Reverend Chris McQuillen-Wright, of St Columb Minor parish church, venting his feelings towards the organisers and participants in the annual St Columb Major carnival - The Independent - 24 August 2007.

Taking part in the parade, some of the villagers had entered as the "Page Three Beauties from the Ramalama Ding-Dong Times", "Miss Hairyarmpitsbad", "Miss Slackistan", "Miss Notbadinbedabad", "Miss Reallyamanistan" and "the Burka Beauties".

As they walked the one-mile parade route, the group knelt down in mock prayer and used fake compasses to try to find Mecca. Their routine impressed carnival judges - a mayor, two district councillors and a parish councillor - and they were shortlisted for the "best entry" prize. But before any awards were handed out, police told the group to leave after complaints about racism.

Nina Brenton said:

"We were approached by about six students from out of the area and they thought it was disgusting and offensive to Muslims. They asked how we could allow it in our carnival... Everybody was having fun, but in the end the police got involved and moved them on."

Fareed Ahmad, President of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Association for Devon and Cornwall, said:

"With carnivals it's quite difficult to judge between humour and causing offence, and on this occasion it looks like they have that balance wrong."

Yep, I guess you would say that, wouldn't you, Fareed.

I'll tell you what I'd say:

"If you don't like it, leave. And take the Reverend Chris and the 6 students with you".


"Infectious diseases are spreading faster than ever before, the World Health Organization annual report says.

WITH ABOUT 2.1 BILLION AIRLINE PASSENGERS FLYING EACH YEAR, THERE IS A HIGH RISK OF ANOTHER MAJOR EPIDEMIC SUCH AS AIDS, SARS OR EBOLA FEVER.

In the report, A Safer Future, the WHO says new diseases are emerging at the 'historically unprecedented' rate of one per year. Since the 1970s, 39 new diseases have developed, and in the last five years alone, the WHO has identified more than 1,100 epidemics including cholera, polio and bird flu.

'It would be extremely naive and complacent to assume that there will not be another disease like Aids, another Ebola, or another Sars, sooner or later,' the report says…
The WHO report also URGES GOVERNMENT TO BE MORE OPEN ABOUT DISEASE OUTBREAKS, saying nearly half of all outbreak alerts it receives come from the media."

"Black boys go backwards when they get to secondary school. It's a cultural problem. It's the absence of fathers who are actively involved in parenting... There is a particular point in teenagers' development, of young men, where fathers are very important and they are more likely to be absent in the case of the Afro-Caribbean."

"Fear of antagonising the Muslim community has put the country's security at risk from Islamic terrorists...

The Balkanisation of our lives is happening on a national scale. Here, the most obvious disconnection is between the rich and the rest. An old story, but the difference today is that the fate of those at the top is divorced from those lower down...

Everything's geared to the needs of the drinker and consumer, and little to the couple with the buggy. On top of all this is the growing disconnection between politics and the people. And the more fractured we become, the greater our pretence of togetherness to cover it up. That's why the Government bangs on about 'community' and has tried so hard to ignore the problems caused by immigration.

Imagine my astonishment when the Minister responsible, Liam Byrne, actually admitted recently that large-scale immigration has profoundly unsettled the country - and that it's the poorest communities that have suffered the most. The influx was overwhelming public services, schools, the NHS and housing, he said. If Labour failed to address public concern, he concluded, it could lose the next election.

I couldn't have put what Byrne was plucky enough to say better myself. But what is extraordinary is the lack of reaction to his words. Where are the columns and editorials and BBC programmes saying that the Government has gone racist? To complete this outburst of honesty, Byrne should have acknowledged that it's the rich who stand to gain from the profits of low-paid labour. But it would have raised the cry:

'So why in God's name have you done it - and why are you letting more in?'

And now local councils are up in arms, saying the Office of National Statistics does not have a clue about the number of people - for whom local services are required - who are entering the country. Meanwhile, the Government continues to pour billions into the NHS. That's supposed to be another success story, but nobody can really explain where all the money's going, let alone why it's so hard to keep our hospitals clean.

It's a strange society we're building. You can't avoid the conclusion that the way to avoid all the inequities and social fractiousness is simple: be rich. Then you can flash those beneath you a benign, ingratiating smile - and have as little as possible to do with them.

There's a new brand of social selfishness about, a kind of 'Sod you Jack, I'm all right' attitude…

It's lunacy to go on promising free medical treatment for all-comers, but we do. It's against every tenet of common sense to have mixed-ability classes, but in the delirium of our class consciousness, we persist.

Doing away with most of our manufacturing base is reckless economic behaviour but the moderate British have done that, too. The income gap, house prices and mass immigration - they're all examples of national excess.

Wherever you look, crazy systems have replaced our old prudent-minded approach.
Look at families. Instead of beginning with the self-evident proposition that two parents are better than one, we start at the other end. The result is that we insist on individual rights to the exclusion of everyone else's interests, including the child's. As a result, we have more single parents, more teenage pregnancies, more adolescent misfits and more destitute families than anyone in Europe...

Politics or parenting, schools or Scotland, wherever you look, very little seems to be holding things together. People live side by side yet separately, in mental isolation, with their eyes fixed warily on one another.

When communities, races, classes and families become segregated to the degree they have, feelings of social solidarity erode. Society ends up like a shattered windscreen: holding together by the grace of God, even though it's all cracked to hell, so no one can see ahead or have any idea where they are going".

"Life is not the same, to be honest with you, since I brought them back. I was subjected to threats. I was told they wanted to punish my family and make a horrible example of my son - they would do to him what they did to Kriss Donald. I received threats to my life, to murder my sons, to murder my grandchildren".

Mohammed Sarwar, the UK's first Muslim MP, describing why he resigned as an MP - Front Page Mag.com - 16 August 2007.

On 14 March 2004, when five Muslim men were cruising around Glasgow looking for someone white to kill. They chose 15-year-old schoolboy, Kriss Donald. Kriss was taken on a 200-mile round trip, subjected to indescribable torture, which included castration and repeated stabbing. Eventually, they drove to a garbage dump, doused him with petrol and set him on fire.

Within days the cops arrested two of the killers but the other three managed to flee to Pakistan. At this point that Mohammad Sarwar intervened. He traveled to Pakistan and used his contacts to arrange for the murderers to be sent back to Britain. Once returned, they were convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment.

Many of Sarwar's fellow Muslims did not appreciate his efforts. Fear of reprisals for helping to get three lovely, fluffy Paki murderers returned to Britain made Sarwar decide not to seek re-election.

Sarwar is the first MP in modern history to be forced out of office by death threat.


"The police have lost control of the streets. I see things every day where older people, who perhaps don't realise how things can escalate, tut at people when they shouldn't".

Answer's simple, folks.

Don't buy any more Oxo.


"Nearly 10 MILLION ADULTS IN BRITAIN ARE CURRENTLY OUT OF WORK, one in four of the working population, the Government admitted yesterday. Official figures showed there are 1.65 million people who are unemployed, with a further 7.9 million defined as 'economically inactive'.

The latter group includes more than two million people who are on long-term sickness benefits as well as students, people who have taken time off work to look after their family and those who have taken early retirement."

The Daily Telegraph - 16 August 2007.

So, why, oh why, oh why are we importing all these foreigners to do OUR work?
Because they will do the jobs that WE don’t want to do any more? Bulls***! There are any number of decent, British lads out there crying out for any kind of work.

Make no mistake, the animals at the top of the governmental tree in this country are at war with us. And they have been waging that war for a very long time now. Sharpen your pitchforks, people, there’s a politician or two needs a-prodding.


"As a result of an article initially printed in the Telegraph which claimed that Devon REC had 'forced' the Devon and Cornwall police to withdraw from a Manhunt programme because of political correctness, the organisation has been swamped by hate mail...

The director was even followed home and has had property damaged. Far-right websites have launched a campaign against the organisation posting pictures of people and their backgrounds on various sites...

The idea that the organisation would wish to protect someone simply because they have slightly darker skin or that they come from a different cultural background is ludicrous and insulting and is far from the values held by the REC... The organisation is not in a position to 'force' anyone to do anything and certainly would not interfere in police activity".

Devon Racial Equality Council chairman Dr Adnan Aldaini, refuting claims that the DREC had 'forced' Devon and Cornwall police to withdraw from the the ITV programme Manhunt, with the result that a segment on Noorullah Seddiqi, an Afghan man suspected of a series of sexual assaults on women in Exeter, was withdrawn - This is Exeter.co.uk - 14 August 2007.

I wonder if Adnan Aldaini is being entirely truthful here. "The organisation is not in a position to 'force' anyone to do anything and certainly would not interfere in police activity"?

Doesn't sound like an immigrant promoting, Brit-loathing PC Crowd "organisation" to me.


"It has a rapidly changing population. Over the past few years it has changed from being a completely white area to a very multi-cultural society."

Councillor Barry Poulton, who represents the Barking ward where Congolese immigrant, Ntsimbi Galacia, stabbed her two-year-old daughter, Tricia, to death - 24dash.com - 14 August 2007.

Galacia had been reported to police several times just before she killed her daughter, indeed she was arrested by police last week for harassing Huseyin Alacayir with claims that he was the father of her daughter. Huseyin said:

"She was telling me I was her husband and I needed to go home because the kid needed me. She was shouting... She was barred from the shop about one and a half weeks ago because she kept coming in and acting like I'm her husband...

We told police that something was going to happen to the kid at the end of the day."

Ranjan Sinnathurai, manager of the Lucky Wines store, said the woman was always "making trouble" and locals were very worried for her daughter.

A local barber said he called the police after the woman turned up at his shop on Saturday. He added:

"In the end I had to call the police to get her removed."

The police had previously referred her to a mental health team who concluded just 5 days beforehand that she was not suffering from a mental health disorder and took no further action.

Earlier in the month another insane black woman was found guilty of killing her baby. Social services insisted that she be allowed to see her child even though the father had repeatedly warned them that she was not to be trusted.

"It has a rapidly changing population. Over the past few years it has changed from being a completely white area to a very multi-cultural society."

It is interesting that Barking should be chosen as a dumping ground for immigrants by the government. You see, there are more BNP councillors in Barking than anywhere else.


"Doctors and health workers have been banned from eating lunch at their desks - in case it offends their Muslim colleagues. Health chiefs believe the sight of food will upset Muslim workers when they are celebrating the religious festival Ramadan. The lunch trolley is also to be wheeled out of bounds as the 30-day fast begins next month."

Daily Express - 13 August 2007.

Na’eem Raza, a senior consultant with Meem, the firm that produced the PC, pro-Muslim guidance for distribution throughout the NHS in Scotland, said:

"In the current climate, people need to understand where communities are coming from and what people are feeling... This is about educating people and making them more aware... when dealing with issues surrounding the Muslim community... Faith is an important issue. Why not have guidance on all of the issues that affect us?"
NHS Lothian said:

"We have recently agreed a quality and diversity strategy and as a responsible and pro-active employer we will continue to promote a positive culture which recognises and respects diversity."

One senior consultant said:

“What next? Are we going to have advice on how to deal with Catholics during Lent? This kind of thing does more harm than good.”

Harm is what Na'eem Raza the PC Crowd are good at.

Harm is what they're after.


"The overseas students were generally less bad and the worst were UK raised and usually of British ancestry. There was little evidence of students being taught the relevant rules at school, or of the students having been corrected for obvious and frequent errors. Many did not even regard these errors as important.

The Government and the educational establishment need to be shaken out of their current complacency about standards of English by constant exposure to evidence such as that presented here from intelligent and highly-qualified undergraduates."

"Scotland Yard has just completed the task of counting how many street gangs there are in London.

The results are staggering: there are more than 170, some of them up to 100-strong. It means on any given night, several thousand gang members are roaming the capital, many of them thirsting for violence. In other British cities, notably Manchester, Liverpool, Glasgow and Birmingham, there is a frighteningly similar picture".

“This makes a complete mockery of Gordon Brown’s claim... The real jobless total now exceeds four million and more young people are not in work.”

Philip Hammond, Shadow Chief Treasury Secretary - The Sun - 10 August 2007.

After the government pointed out that the number of people in full-time work has risen by 2.5 million since 1997 and 61 per cent of these full-time workers were newly-arrived foreigners, Hammond told us that Gordon Brown had promised, "British jobs for British workers”, just 2 months earlier.

These foreigners have been employed as FOUR MILLION Britons were left jobless or "inactive". This figure includes 1.3million people under the age of 25 not in work, training or full-time education.


"Excessive sunbathing, obesity, binge drinking and smoking have been linked to spiralling rates of cancer, according to a new cancer charity study. Rates of melanoma, the most dangerous form of skin cancer, have risen by over 40 per cent in the past decade, making it the fastest rising cancer in the UK. Incidence of mouth, womb, and kidney cancers has also shown rapid increases in the last 10 years.
The study by Cancer Research UK suggests around half of all cancers could be prevented by lifestyle changes".

Daily Mail - 9 August 2007.

"Incidence of mouth, womb, and kidney cancers has also shown rapid increases in the last 10 years".

Now when was it Tony Blair came to power? Ah yes, 10 years ago.

"The study... suggests around half of all cancers could be prevented by lifestyle changes".

Lifestyle changes? What, do all the things that the multinational company owners don't want us to do? No more holidays in the sun? No more fags? Less alcohol. Less junk food?

Whatever you do, you Cancer Research UK folk, don't be letting those who profit from our unhealthy lkifestyles hear that, will you? Otherwise, there'll be no more government grant for you, by Tony!


"Between 1997 and 2005, the latest period for which figures are available, 592,000 houses were needed solely for immigrants. With Eastern Europeans continuing to pour in over the past two years, this total is certain to have climbed even higher."

The Daily Mail - 9 August 2007.

The Mail was quoting figures House of Commons Library researchers. It added:

"The Prime Minister is planning to build three million homes by 2020, after accepting it is hard for first-time buyers to get on the property ladder... But, based on current levels of immigration, 1.2million - or 40 per cent - of the new homes will be needed to house immigrants".


"Get the race card out and suddenly problems that have been going on for years appear to have just started because Somalians have moved into the area. The sad fact is only when Somalians are threatened or the race card gets played do the authorities get involved or it raises the profile of the problems in the area.

Agencies, whether governmental or community, should cover all racist attacks and not focus on the colour of the skin of the person being attacked. If this is not racial discrimination, what is?

It is clear that there have been many racist attacks by Asian youths on white people in the area and further afield... that agencies, including the police, have not become involved with."

Martyn Hancock, of East Bristol Advice & Information Centres, claiming that the authorities dealing with reports of race-hate incidents are themselves guilty of discrimination, because they have not taken complaints seriously when victims are white - Bristol Evening Post - 8 August 2007.

Avon and Somerset police spokesman, Dan Mountain, retorted:

"We have specialist hate crime officers and racist offences are always fully investigated no matter what the colour, race or creed of the victim."

Whom do you believe, Martyn or the jobsworth?


"What, is the guy dead or something?"

Ebanezer Adesina's reply to commuters after beating up 62-year-old grandfather and charity worker, Roger Hare, and walking away - Daily Mail - 8 August 2007.

Roger had politely asked Adasina to move his legs, which were blocking the exit, as he went to get off a tube train at West Dulwich station.

When a woman asked him why he was going, Adesina replied:

"What's the point, he's dead already."

Roger's injuries were so serious he was on a life support machine for a week.

Donna Mahoney, as she laid a wreath at the hrave of her husband, a Territorial Army soldier who killed him self in 2004 after returning from Iraq - Daily Mail - 6 August 2007.

Psychiatrist Alan Penny, a senior trauma therapist for Assist, a charity helping servicemen and women with psychological problems, said this:

"There are no provisions at all in the Army for dealing with traumatic stress. These soldiers witness unthinkable horrors and then are expected to return to normal...

Thirty per cent of soldiers will suffer from traumatic stress or other related problems, so it is essential something is done. I have been urging the MoD for years to do something, but our organisation keeps getting fobbed off with letters. Not doing anything is dangerous for all the soldiers, as the longer it is left, the worse the symptoms become."

"Indigenous Brits are becoming more delightfully open when it comes to love and sex".

Yasmin Alibhai-Brown - The Independent - 6 August 2007.

YAB forgot to add, "and breeding themselves out of existence".

The above comment was made after she had described "our own dreadful Asian predjudices" as exemplified in an ICM survey of 18-to 34-year-olds for the BBC Asian Network. YAB stated:

"Most white Britons - a whopping 87 per cent - would happily marry out and between 78 and 83 per cent would date people from outside their own race. Depressingly, the same survey shows that only 53 per cent of Asians say they would marry outside their communities and between 44 and 53 per cent would date non-Asians".

Later in the article YAB gets down to the usual Brit-bashing, a la:

"Miscegenation in the British colonies was often about control and power. Masters and mistresses used their slaves for violent sex and uptight colonials sought furtive sexual release with 'submissive' and obliging natives. The centuries of imperial domination left psycho-sexual damage on both sides."

And, of course, she pumps the melting pot message for all it's worth:

"White British women, mostly from the working classes, reached out to black and Asian men, who reciprocated. Explosive sexists and racists tried but couldn't stop transracial love and lust. In 1957, an academic, S F Collins, confidently asserted that the racially mixed family would soon be a normal feature of British life...
When, in 1961, The Rev Clifford Hill said on radio that he could accept a good black man for a son-in-law, he was deluged with furious letters...

In the Sixties a distinguished Caribbean scholar Fernando Henriques slammed biological and cultural protectionists: 'The notion here is that an ethnic group has an almost divine mission to maintain its racial purity. The consequences of this belief have produced immeasurable suffering in the world - Hitler's genocidal activities were only one of the manifestations of this delusion".

Remember the song? "A great big melting pot"? "Coffee coloured people by the score"?
However, YAB does let the "who are the real racists" cat out the bag in this article and we learn that: "Black and Asian Britons started objecting to what they saw as pollution of their race. Note that the outrage burst out as more black and Asian women chose white partners. Until then, that had been the prerogative of their men. All too soon, though, the chorus of disapproval spread. Black women accused black men of seeking trophy blondes; Asian women said Asian men had white lovers because the women were easy. Young black and Asian people moved into single-identity mental enclaves and sought marriage partners of exact specifications in terms that would never be accepted of whites".

Yab concludes with a round of applause for those brits who are happy to breed their tribe out of existence:

"Let's hear it for the whities. They keep alive possibilities my brethren seem determined to destroy."

So, YAB now applauds the "whities" she has spent a journalistic lifetime demonising - because they are now on-message as regards the PC melting pot agenda. And yet, just over a year ago, during the 4 June 2006, edition of Dateline London, in answer to

Gavin Essler's question:

"What's wrong with white guys, by the way?"

Alibhai-Brown replied:

"I don't like them. I want them to be the lost species in 100 years".

And we will be, if YAB's genocidal agenda rules the roost for much longer.


"It has become increasingly popular to speak of racial and ethnic diversity as a civic strength. From multicultural festivals to pronouncements from political leaders, the message is the same: our differences make us stronger.

But a massive new study, based on detailed interviews of nearly 30,000 people across America, has concluded just the opposite. Harvard political scientist Robert Putnam -- famous for "Bowling Alone," his 2000 book on declining civic engagement -- has found that the greater the diversity in a community, the fewer people vote and the less they volunteer, the less they give to charity and work on community projects. In the most diverse communities, neighbors trust one another about half as much as they do in the most homogenous settings. The study, the largest ever on civic engagement in America, found that virtually all measures of civic health are lower in more diverse settings...

The study comes at a time when the future of the American melting pot is the focus of intense political debate... The study is already being cited by some conservatives as proof of the harm large-scale immigration causes to the nation's social fabric."

The Downside of Diversity, by Michael Jonas, was first seen in The Boston Globe on August 5 2007.

"Ironically, one of the main reasons for leaving is the overstretch of services due to increasing immigration into the UK... Even the most idyllic villages in Britain are under pressure from rising populations...

UK plc simply isn’t fighting hard enough to keep its people. Some are telling us they are fed up with living in this country. Even business people are saying they’ve had enough.

They’re saying ‘I can’t put my children into the right school, but if I move abroad I can’. Most people are very patriotic and don’t want to leave. They’re almost terrified about it. But they say they just have to.

It’s a shame people at the top don’t recognise they’re not doing enough to retain highly skilled workers in this country... They just can’t see a future for themselves in this country. They want to get married and settle down and buy homes, but they can’t see it happening here.

And time and time again they are saying to us they don’t want to be seen as racist because they are quitting because of immigration."

Liam Clifford, former immigration control officer, now the owner of globalvisas.com, the largest foreign visa consultancy firm in the country.

Applications have soared in the last seven months by 80 per cent to almost 4,000 a week as of August 2007. Before Tony Blair came to power the figure was just 300 a week. According to the most recent Office of National Statistics figures, in 2005 the official number of people leaving UK shores was 352,000 – up from 249,000 in 1995. The majority – around 150,000 – migrated from London and the south east.


"Problems will arise if many coloured people settle here. Are we to saddle ourselves with colour problems in UK? Attracted by Welfare State. Public opinion in UK won't tolerate it once it gets beyond certain limits."

Winston Churchill - 3 February 1954 - under the agenda item "Coloured Workers", as quoted by Cabinet Secretary Sir Norman Brook - The Guardian - 5 August 2007.

David Maxwell-Fyfe, the Home Secretary, said that Britain was now home to 40,000 immigrants as compared to 7,000 before WWII. He raised the possibility of immigration control, saying:

"There is a case on merits for excluding riff-raff. But politically it would be represented and discussed on basis of colour limitation. That would offend the floating vote viz., the old Liberals. We should be reversing age-long tradition that British Subjects have right of entry to mother-country of Empire. We should offend Liberals, also sentimentalists...

The colonial populations are resented in Liverpool, Paddington and other areas by those who come into contact with them. But those who don't are apt to take a more Liberal view."

Florence Horsbrugh, the Minister of Education and Conservative MP for Manchester Moss Side, is recorded as that the situation was:

"Already becoming serious in Manchester."

I wonder what this lot would have made of Tony Blair inviting in all the "riff-raff" and creating a law whereby you could go to jail for 7 years if you told a truth that might not refect too well upon that riff-raff.

I wonder what they would have made of every Prime Minister since Wilson putting the foreigner before the working-class Briton in the land that the working-class Briton made.


"From start to finish the thing is a complete shambles… It doesn't work and it's getting worse... The whole thing is one gigantic mess."

A high-ranking immigration judge describing the immigration system as it developed during Tony Blair’s time in office – Daily Mail – 4 August 2007.

The judge added:

"If a person comes into the country via the official routes, they are granted temporary admission while their case is heard. Sometimes they are given reporting conditions, but no one bothers to check on them. I hardly ever saw a reporting status that was up to date. I've said repeatedly in cases, many of which are years old, 'Surely you keep track of them?' But the fact is they don't. They're just allowed to melt away.

At one time they had to report to police stations, but then we were sent a memo saying the police would no longer take them. They didn't have the money or the staff, particularly when the people who were faithfully reporting could be doing so for years and years at a time.

When we hear a case, the person making the appeal doesn't have to come to court. If it's dismissed, an immigration officer will be sent to their address to detain and then deport them, but by that time they've already done a runner.

Even if the appellant does show up, they can't be arrested. Only an immigration officer can make an arrest and as there very often isn't one in court the person can walk straight out, even if the decision to deport them has been upheld.
The lack of join-up between the police, the Home Office and the immigration authorities is incredible.

Then there are the people the immigration officers never bother to check up on. Looking out of my office, I could see a car-washing place which was run by Albanians. I'm sure they were illegals but no one had ever bothered to check...
I visited one detention centre in 2004 and I met a chap there from Africa. He kept saying, 'Why can't I go home, I just want to go home.' He'd been there for weeks and they hadn't even bothered to book him a flight…

Obviously there are very good people who work very hard, but all too often people do not have the requisite brains or experience… They are given very little training. I once had a Home Office presenting officer in court… I'll never forget I questioned him over a simple matter of procedure and he said to me, 'What do I know? I was a postman until last week’…

It should always be remembered that the Labour Government, in response to the public outcry over immigration, introduced more and more legislation, making the whole thing significantly worse than it need be...

Files got lost all the time. Once, they found thousands in a garage in Elephant and Castle… I went in because I cared and I believed in justice. Now I know it's not justice – just a very expensive lottery system."

The Mail added:

"When Judge J first began working in immigration more than two decades ago, she did so with a sense of pride… Now, she has reluctantly arrived at a very different point of view. After 20 years in immigration, Judge J has discovered nothing but chaos, confusion and a shambolic structure that doesn't work.

She has stood helplessly by as thousands of illegal immigrants have arrived in the UK and watched the authorities routinely fail to deport them after their appeals were dismissed. She has been appalled by the arrogance and incompetence of many of the judges who hear the appeals and the inexperience of the Home Office officials who present them…

According to the most recent statistics, in 2005, 33,940 appeals were decided by the immigration judges, of which only 17 per cent were allowed. The people who have been turned down should, in theory, be deported immediately yet, according to the judge, this rarely happens".

And you keep on voting for this fanatic jobsworth incompetence.

Sometimes an electorate gets what it deserves, I guess.


"Boris Johnson is not an appropriate person to run a multi-cultural city like London... Someone like him as mayor would destroy the city's unity... Those people that think he is a lovable rogue need to take a good look at themselves... I just find his remarks very offensive... There is no way he is going to get the support of any people in the black community."

Doreen Lawrence, the mother of Stephen Lawrence - 3 August 2007.

Personally, I think the jumped up mum's remarks will just about tip London in Boris's favour. Lawrence was taking issue with remarks such as these:

"Not even under the law of Ceausescu's Romania could you be prosecuted for what you said in your own kitchen... The PC brigade, having punched this hole in the Metropolitan police, is swarming through to take over the whole system... What started as a sensible attempt to find justice for the family of Stephen Lawrence has given way to hysteria".

Dawn Butler and Diane Abbott, both of them black Labour MPs, (Brent South and Hackney North respectively) said his views on race harked back to the 1950s.
Ms Butler highlighted a 2002 article in which Mr Johnson referred to the Queen being greeted in Commonwealth countries by "flag-waving piccaninnies".

She claimed he also said that he expected, during a mooted visit by Tony Blair to the Congo, that:

"The tribal warriors will all break out in watermelon smiles to see the big white chief".

She added:

"This is the most offensive language of the colonial past and it shows that the Tory party is riddled with racial prejudice. No one with such views can be the mayor of a city with the largest black population in Britain."

Diane Abbott said:

"David Cameron is fooling himself if he thinks that Boris Johnson's 1950s attitudes to race will be acceptable to Londoners, both black and white."
He's attitudes on race are acceptable to this Londoner. Yep, he's got my vote if no Nationalist stands. I prefer him to Messrs Lawrence, Butler, Abbot and Red Ken by a factor of several thousand light years.


"Representatives of Post Office Limited will visit branches at random, on an anonymous basis, to ensure these key messages are being delivered in an accurate and professional manner. Any compensation package offered to you if your branch is selected for closure shall be subject to you having complied, and continuing to comply, up to the date of closure."

Sue Huggins, the Post Office's director of the Network Change Programme, in a letter to all postmasters, threaten to withhold payment of £60,000 compensation to those whose branches were to close.

This if they discussed anything with their customers. Huggins preffered line was to that the posmasters tell customers that:

"The number of customers visiting Post Offices has declined rapidly over the last few years... More and more customers are accessing services they would normally obtain from the Post Office from different sources such as the internet or by telephone" - even if he has no personal evidence that this is so.

One postmaster said:

"This letter seems intended to intimidate us, nothing less. It really is like Big Brother. I can't say anything to people I don't know - and certainly can't say anything to journalists - without worrying that I'll be reported. If this branch is listed for closing, it will be like Judgment Day. I can just see it. They'll pull out a file and say they have evidence that I wasn't spinning the right story. It's despicable, really."

Others talked, but on condition that they were not named.

"It's too frightening. If my branch is selected for closure, there is nothing I can do about it. In that case, I will need the compensation. I cannot do anything to jeopardise it."

Another said:

"I'm very loyal to the Post Office brand. So why should I be subject to surveillance, like a criminal? Why can't I get on with serving my customers as well as I can?"

David Faint, secretary of the Exeter branch of the National Federation of Sub-Postmasters, said:

"This letter amounts to blackmail. My first reaction was to shred it but I then got on to head office to demand to know what they were playing at. Frankly, all the postmasters I know were absolutely disgusted by this letter. The suggestion that we should only tell our customers the official line being given out by the Post Office is also disgusting. I shall tell my customers the truth."
Jenny Clarke, secretary of the Plymouth, North and East Cornwall branch of the NFSP, said:

"To think that they don't trust us and that they have the money to pay for people to travel around the country checking up on us anonymously at a time when they are expecting us to work for less money... If your staff got into conversation with a member of the public and said the wrong thing, then we could be penalised for that too."


"Faisal Wangita, 25, was among a mob who beat Mahir Osman, 18, to death near Camden Tube station, London, in 2006."

Faisal Wangita is the son of former Ugandan military leader Idi Amin.


"We have been in talks with Brian Paddick, among others. We hope and expect him to go forward for the nomination as part of a full and open selection process which will begin shortly."

A statement released by the Lib Dems - 3 August 2007.

On 7 July 2005, shortly after the London bombings occurred, the Deputy Assistant Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, Brian Paddick, said:

"We are content that the security level was appropriate".

Which, you have to admit, was a pretty stupid thing to say. The day after four Islamic chaps slaughtered 52 people and injured hundreds more, Paddick said something even more stupid. He said:

"Islam and terrorism don't go together".

This is what was protecting us from the bad guys. Paddick, Britain's top gay cop, sparked controversy in 2002 when, as Brixton's police supremo, he told officers not to arrest or charge people found in possession of cannabis. He is on record as saying:

"My view is that there are a whole range of people who buy drugs - not just cannabis but even cocaine and Ecstasy... It has no adverse effect on the rest of the people that they are with, whether this is the people they socialise with or the rest of the community. In terms of prioritisation, they are low down on my priority list."

And:

"Cannabis does not appear to damage the community like alcohol, crack and heroine... I have never know anyone to commit crime in order to fund a cannabis habit".
Which, if you know about these things, is not just a politically correct thing to say, it's insanely dishonest as well. Especially when the words are spoken by a copper who has to deal with the results of cannabis usage all the time.
As regards his sexuality, la Paddick says:

"I've been open and honest".

Which, according to a November, 2002, letter, sent to him by the Metropolitan Police Authority, isn't strictly accurate. Paddick had denied the claims made by former lover, James Renolleau, that he had smoked at least 100 spliffs with policeman P. He did, however, admit that Renolleau had used cannabis in their London flat. His lover was on police bail at this time, having previously been arrested for fraud.

The MPA's letter criticised Paddick for having "demonstrated lack of judgement". It also admonished him for failing to inform his superiors that he was cohabiting with a fraudster who was out on bail. All of which doesn't exactly inspire confidence in his "openness and honesty", now does it?

La Paddick also thinks "anarchy" is "appealing".

It used to say so on his web site.

That's anarchy. You know, lawlessness, might is right, take what you want. Society's a drag sort of stuff.

Here are a few other pearls of Paddickian wisdom:

"I am an ordinary gay man and I do things that ordinary gay men do."

"I've been open and honest about my sexuality".

Well, I hate to harp on the honesty thing, Paddick, old perv, but you weren't alll that open and honest when you pledged yourself to your former wife, were you? I mean, getting wed just to cover up your homosexuality wasn't a very nice trick to play on a trusting, young bride, now was it?

And before that you got engaged to TWO other girls! It's not what most of us would call "open and honest", Paddick, old perv..

He has also said:

"There is a wonderful mix of people here... You can be yourself in Lambeth and it's not a problem. You can be what you want to be... I've been open and honest about... the number of robberies occurring the area, about the fact they're more by young black guys as opposed to young white guys."

"I demonstrate I understand the local community by not employing tactics like dog-sniffing down at the underground station... I won't use Section 60, which gives the police the power to be stopped and searched."

Here is one last Paddickian pearl for the London Mayoral voters to consider:

"Lambeth people tend to be more forward thinking. There is a lot younger population than in other parts of the country."

So, young, black people, who do seem to commit the majority of the crime in the most "anarchic" and violent neck of the woods in Britain, are, according to this pink and fluffy policeman, "more forward thinking" than the rest of us.

That's us, the white, British law-abiding types, who, in comparison to the youthful, black Brixton type, come across as rather backward thinking.

In the PC world of Paddick, that is.

What do you think of that, you dinosaurs?

I think that, not only does Brian bat for the other side, if you asked him whose side he wanted to be on when it really, really mattered, he wouldn't be the least bit interested in batting for an England as it used to be before he came along.


"There has undoubtedly been failures amongst the professionals caring for her."
Diane Ellis QC, for Vivian Gamor, who beat her ten-year-old son to death with a hammer and then used cling film to suffocate her three-year-old daughter.
Gamor killed her children despite her husband's fears and his repeated attempts to get sole custody of them.

He was thwarted in his endeavours by Dr Luisa Pettigrew, who declared that she had "a positive outlook" and did not pose any further risk, and social workers, Felicia Abalihi and Catherine Edwards, who decided that access visits could be safely left for Gamor and her former partner to arrange.

Gabriel Ogunkoya, the father of the dead children, was so worried by the prospect of leaving the children alone with their mother that he took legal advice to try get sole custody. However, as prosecuting barrister Jonathan Rees told the court, he was quickly dissuaded from doing so. Rees said:

"He wanted to get custody of the children for their own protection, but all the professional bodies that he contacted told him that he could not stand in the way of the mother. He was told by a solicitor that if he tried to keep the children away from their mother it would be akin to kidnap. He was told the same by Edwards."

Gabriel told the court:

"The system that I obeyed has frog-marched my children to their deaths. They assessed her and found nothing wrong... I obeyed the law and let them go."

Judge Peter Rook QC told Gamor:

"This tragedy could have been avoided had you not been allowed unsupervised access to the children and the children's father's concerns were given sufficient weight."

Gamor had previously lunged at her half-sister with a knife, repeatedly claimed that her two children were not naturally hers and insisted that she was Mother Nature, the unrecognised twin sister of Jesus Christ.

In September 2006, Gamor was diagnosed as suffering with a schizophrenia and sectioned under the Mental Health Act. But after spending just five weeks in hospital, she was permitted to leave. A condition of her discharge was that Hackney Social Services should oversee any contact with her children, Antoine and Kenniece, who were being looked after by their paternal grandparents. However, a staff shortage meant that the supervision 'dried-up' after just one visit.

Gamor, who is black, was detained indefinitely under the Mental Health Act after she pleaded guilty to two charges of manslaughter due to diminished responsibility.


"We've noticed there's becoming quite a serious problem with immigrant drivers from Eastern Europe...

They tend to pile a lot of people into one car, drive too fast, go round roundabouts the wrong way and often indulge in drink-driving. As a group, there is a distinct lack of common sense...

It's becoming more and more important because we're getting more and more immigrant workers."

John Fort, North Yorks Council Executive Member for Community Safety - Daily Mail - 1 August 2007.

14 per cent of fatal accidents on Britain's rural roads are now caused by Eastern European immigrants. Eastern Europeans taking part in roadside breath tests are also twice as likely as the average drink driver to be serious offenders who have at least two-and-a-half times the legal alcohol limit in their systems.

The TTC Group, the country's largest provider of court-referred drink rehabilitation schemes, has recently stated that 11 per cent of attendees are now from Eastern Europe. This figure is up from under three per cent in 2006.

In July 2007, the Motor Insurers' Bureau, which handles claims from crashes caused by uninsured drivers, said that the number of claims against Polish drivers had more than tripled in the past two years.

North Yorks Council's statistics showed that in 2005, the most recent figures available, 85 people were killed on the region's roads. Who killed them? Polish drunks? Well, yes. And the Blairites who assured us that only 13,000 Eastern Europeans would come after they were allowed into the EU.

Millions have arrived - and they plan to stay.


"A key concern for areas was how to respond to the inevitable growth in the numbers of offenders subject to registration and there were grave concerns... that resources were not increasing as the registration list does."

Jason Wood and Hazel Kemshall, of De Montfort University, Leicester, said this in a government-funded study of paedophile management - Daily Express - 31 July 2007.

The report stated that paedophiles were not being monitored properly on their release from prison because there are too many of them and not enough government money was being spent on the problem.


"Attempts to Islamise the west cannot be denied… The danger for the identity of Europe that is connected with it should not be ignored out of a wrongly understood respectfulness".

"Our finances are improving, and we are now in a more stable position than 12 months ago... We have turned a corner."

Peter Watt, Labour General Secretary - Bloomberg news - 18 July 2007.

As of March 31 2007, the party owed 20.2 million pounds. £14.6 million in loans from supporters and £5.6 million in bank overdrafts. As of July 2007, party membership at the end of 2006 was 182,370, the lowest level since the party began compiling membership statistics in 1928.


"I THINK THE POLICE OFTEN JUST WANT TO FEEL COLLARS"!

Sonia Francis-Mills, the director of the Devon Racial Equality Council, explaining the anger of police officers after she asked them to Noorullah Seddiqi's profile from the TV Crimewatch-type programme, Manhunt.

In July 2007, The Daily Telegraph informed us thus:

"A police force withdrew plans for a televised appeal to help catch an Afghan… after a race watchdog warned that it might spark a violent backlash. Detectives were due to appear on an episode of ITV's Manhunt to ask for help finding Noorullah Seddiqi…

The Afghan had absconded from bail after being arrested in connection with the rape of one woman and the sexual assault of 3 others. Officers working on the case believed the appeal… could have proved vital... But the Chief Constable of the Devon and Cornwall force, Stephen Otter, told officers not to go ahead after the Devon Racial Equality Council, funded by and affiliated to the Commission for Racial Equality, said the appeal could lead to a racist backlash".
Yep, much better to have an immigrant rapist on the loose than warn the British people that their daughters are in danger.

Talk about Malice in Loonieland.


"We committed the cardinal sin of these interventions, which is to have ridiculously overambitious aims; to re-create Washington in Baghdad, to recreate a fully-functioning western-style democracy in a Middle Eastern country. Our withdrawal rate should be determined not by the security situation - which allows the militias, the insurgents, to determine our withdrawal - but by the state of training of the Iraqi forces."

Paddy Ashdown, describing Bush and Blair's stupid lack of preparation for the aftermath of invasion and insisting that we get out of Iraq as soon as the Iraqi army is ready - The BBC's Sunday AM programme - 15 July 2007.

"This book contains imagery and words of hideous racial prejudice, where the 'savage natives' look like monkeys and talk like imbeciles! How and why do Borders think that it's okay to peddle such racist material?

Yes, it was written a long time ago, but this certainly does not make it acceptable! This is potentially highly offensive to a great number of people!"

A Commission for Racial Equality spokeswoman condemning the high street book chain, Borders, for stocking copies of TINTIN IN THE CONGO! - The Daily Telegraph – 12 July 2007.

The unnamed spokeswoman added:

"It beggars belief that in this day and age Borders would think it acceptable to sell and display Tintin in the Congo".

Which reminds me, I must pop out and buy a hundred copies for my nephews, nieces and all the neighbourhood kiddiewinks!


"The UK is the number one target of Islamic strategies in the West...

The former British Empire controlled some of the largest Muslim communities. Immigrants from these countries... have taken full advantage of Britain's liberal politics. It would be a huge mistake to say that Islam is just another religion... Islam is a whole system: a social, political, religious, economical, educational, legislative, judicial and military system... with regulations that govern every aspect of the lives of its adherents."

Sam Solomon, a former imam and Islamic lawyer, describing the "creeping" Islamification of the UK in the July 2007 edition of Witness magazine - Christian Today - 12 July 2007.


"Four men who were given sanctuary in Britain after leaving their war-torn countries were yesterday found guilty of a plot that would have killed hundreds of people on the London transport system two years ago.

Muktar Ibrahim, 29, the leader of the suicide gang, was seen by officers on at least four occasions before the bombings... and was on bail after being arrested on suspicion of extremism.

London was saved only by Ibrahim's lack of basic arithmetic. A scribbled note found at the bomb factory showed that Ibrahim, who had failed maths GCSE, had wrongly calculated the ratio of ingredients, rendering the bombs harmless.

Despite having a criminal record, he was given British citizenship even as he plotted the potentially murderous attacks. Ibrahim had been in Pakistan at the same time as the leaders of the July 7 plot - Mohammed Siddique Khan and Shezhad Tanweer - and the devices his team employed were remarkably similar to those that killed 52 travellers and four bombers in the first attacks. The later bombs were designed to cause an atrocity "bigger and better" and failed only because the devices had been put together wrongly...

All four of the terrorists were refugees from East Africa living in council dwellings across London."

It's not just the pathologically ungrateful Muslim dimwit who is at war with us, ladies and gentlemen, it's those who let them in and, once in, allow them to stay, as well.


"We should not have doubts about the EU’s future – it is what it has always been. It is the world’s first non-imperial Empire, with 27 member states that have agreed to pool their sovereignty and work together".

European President, Jose Manuel Barroso, describing Europe as it is now that even more British sovereignty has been given away in the latest treaty - 10 July 2007.

Barroso also said:

"Any fears that countries will lose their sovereignty to an EU ‘super state’ are unfounded".

Which is b***ocks.

And:

"But does anyone really think that anyway?"

Er yes, actually, Jose, most Brits who have been paying attention "really think that", as it happens!

Shadow Europe Minister, Mark Francois, said:

"The British public will be genuinely surprised to hear the suggestion that we are now part of an EU Empire... For the president of the Commission of all people to say this is quite startling. Anyone who thinks that we have been exaggerating in calling for a referendum on a re­vived constitution only has to look at what Mr Barroso has said to realise the scale of what is now being contemplated."

It was their relentless importation, promotion and encouragement of the fast breeding immigrant, at the expense of the responsible Brit, that is entirely responsible for bringing this situation about.


"We will be judged by the Iraq that replaces Saddam's Iraq, and by the Middle East".

The day after John Reid said this, Tony Blair's government declared war on Iraq - 17 March 2003 - The Blair Years, by Alistair Campbell - July 2007.

The government won the Commons vote despite the rebellion of 139 Labour MPs.

Alistair Campbell, himself wrote:

"All of us, I think, had had pretty severe moments of doubt but he (Chairman Blair) hadn't really".

Thus does Campbell excuse himself and all the other butchers but Blair.

However, on the BBC's Sunday AM programme, he stated that the decision to go to war with Iraq was "driven by the right motives".

In his book, he also says:

"Bush joked to me, 'I suppose you can tell the story of how Tony flew in and pulled the crazed unilateralist back from the brink'."

"One day, my dear Muslims, Islam will govern Britain!"

Anjem Choudary, co-founder of Al Muhajiroun, a banned group with links to suspects in the 7/7 London bombings, preaching to 3,000 Muslims protesting the knighthood of Salman Rushdie outside the Central London Mosque - 22 June 2007.

As reported by WorldNetDaily – 9 July 2007.

Choudary was also heard to says:

"Queen Elizabeth, go to hell!"

In recordings captured by US talk show host Rusty Humphries, another speaker, Abu Saif, a member of Hizb ut-Tahrir, (the Party of Liberation) said this:

"Brothers and sisters, make no mistake. Make no mistake. The British government, the queen, the MPs in this country, they are enemies to you, enemies to Allah and enemies to the Muslims".

Referring to Tony Blair’s new job as George Bush’s special envoy to the Middle-East, Abu Saif said he would "go to the Middle East as an envoy, and he'll come back in a box. Inshallah. What box that is, we leave that up to you."

Humphries, himself, said that the thousands of Muslims listening to Chaudary and Saif did not condemn the speakers:

"Not one said, 'You're not speaking for me' or 'Not in my name.' They stood there and watched and applauded… I feel like I'm Rusty Revere. I'm out there yelling the Muslims are coming, the Muslims are coming. But we don't want to hear it. We don't want to hurt people's feelings."

Humphries interviewed Abu Saif after the rally and asked him if he really called for "the destruction of the American government and establishment of an Islamic state in America". (Saif’s own words) Saif replied:

"Of course, we want Islam to be a source of governance for all of mankind. And we also believe that one day America will be ruled by Islam. One of the prophecies of the message of Muhammad was the hour will never come… until a group of the Muslims … will rise and conquer the white house."

Humphries, then, asked Abu Saif if there was "nothing we can do to be friends?" To which Saif replied:

"There is something you can do to be friends. You can become Muslim."

Unlike Tony B and the PC Crowd, some of these Muslim chappies aren't afraid to tell it like it is.


"As I left the house, and said goodbye to Fiona, I did actually wonder momentarily whether it would be the last time I saw her, whether what I discovered on reading my own diary would be so awful that I would want to top myself."

"The ECHR renders foreign terrorists safe from deportation and, in effect, provides them with a meal ticket for life. It was drawn up 50 years ago in entirely different circumstances. We must now pull out of it and write our own laws to protect human rights for the majority."

Sir Andrew Green, Chairman of Migrationwatch - Daily Express - 9 July 2007.

Sir Andrew also said that the 1951 Treaty on Human Rights, which was ushered into domestic law by Chairman Blair's then Home Secretary, Jack Straw, in 1998, allowed terrorists to remain in the UK even after serving a jail sentence and this acted as a "positive encouragement" for terrorists to come to Britain.

This, of course, is true. What Sir Andrew doesn't appear to get is that the "terrorists" are the unwitting footsoldiers of the Chairman Blairs, the Jack Straws and the creatures behind the scenes who pay their real wages and see to it that only the most morally challenged ever get to slther to the top of the greasy pole in the first place.


"We're talking about such a big change in the way people behave that it's inevitably going to take 10 to 15 years, and that's if we're lucky, and that's what I hope we can achieve. I think it would be wrong to pretend otherwise to the British nation…
If people are trying to destroy one's entire way of life and they don't care about how many people they kill, then I think it is really important to think hard about these things, to be vigilant, and of course if one has any doubts then let somebody know."

Gordon Brown’s Security Minister, Admiral Sir Alan West, describing how long he thought it would take to deal with the fight against terrorism in the UK – BBC News – July 8 2007.

West is a Blairite/Brownite toady, of course, and as such, is never going to state the obvious. The obvious being to deport the terrorists, to stop immigration and to rid the country of those who preach, condone and turn a blind eye to hatred of it.

BRITAIN IS DIFFERENT. Of course there will be transfers of sovereignty. But would I be intelligent to draw the attention of public opinion to this fact?"

Luxembourg's Prime Minster, Jean-Claude Juncker, letting slip that Gordon Brown would be wise to keep we Brits in the dark regarding the latest transfer of British sovereignty to Brussels.

Juncker has no such fears regarding the rest of Europe’s voters, as recounted in the Belgian newspaper, Le Soir - Daily Telegraph – 3 July 2007.

Juncker then cited elements of the old constitution in the latest treaty:

"There is a single legal personality for the EU, the primacy of European law, a new architecture for foreign and security policy, there is an enormous extension in the fields of the EU's powers, there is Charter of Fundamental Rights."

Lord Leach of Fairford, Chairman of Open Europe, told The Telegraph:

"Gordon Brown should think twice before going back on his party's manifesto pledge to hold a referendum on a treaty that is the EU constitution in all but name. If he is serious about wanting to 'listen and learn' he should let the people have a say. We are building a formidable coalition to ensure that the Government keeps its promise."

An ICM/Open Europe poll recently found that 86 per cent of voters want a referendum on the treaty.


"This is an extremely worrying development. We cannot discount the possibility that terrorists have targeted Britain’s NHS as a way of infiltrating sleeper terrorist cells into the UK. After all, everyone trusts a doctor."

3 July 2007 edition of The Daily Express quoting a "senior security source".

The Express added:

"A terror cell of doctors are suspected of plotting a car bomb blitz on Britain. Three qualified physicians and two trainees were part of the alleged conspiracy to launch a summer of carnage".


"There is no doubt whatsoever that there will continue to be attacks against the British government, its interests and the home front as long as we see the continued British and American occupation of Muslim land in Iraq and Afghanistan, (the Blair Wars) support for criminal Israel (Blair was the most pro-Jewish Prime Minister in British history. Brown's first political appointments suggest he will be no different) and draconian measures taken against Muslims in the UK. (Measures which, although they were taken AFTER 7/7/2005 and were, thus, far too late, were entirely justified)

There are many in Britain who take their ideology from Osama bin Laden and al-Qaida and are ready to carry out many more attacks."

Anjem Choudary, the founder and former Head of various Islamic groups eventually disbanded (way after the horse had bolted) by Chairman Blair, describing the attempted car bombings in London and Glasgow as "completely justified" - WorldNetDaily - 2 July 2007.


"I cannot ever promise people that nothing will ever happen… We don't know where people came from, where they lived or who have been involved in the incident in the past few days."

New Home Secretary, Jacqui Smith, attempting to reassure us, I think, after the Asian Doc Bombers tried to blow us up in London and Glasgow - Daily Mail - 2 July 2007.


"If we have to move to tougher security measures we must have proper judicial oversight and we must have proper accountability."

Gordon Brown using the Asian Doc bombers as a pretext for nailing the rest of us even more securely into New Labour's totalitasrian coffin - Daily Mail - 2 July 2007.


"So far, at least, Mr Brown has passed the first test of his administration. He has not played politics with the terror threat."

Liberty director, Shami Chakrabarti, not caring much about Brown's British coffin nails, as long as he wasn't blaming Muslims for attempting to blow us up.

Even though, once again, it WAS Muslims doing the dirty deed - Daily Mail - 2 July 2007.


"I never thought he was a racist. I just thought he was a fat, white bastard."

Black newsreader, Trevor McDonald, telling us what he thought of the late Bernard Manning - The Observer - 1 July 2007.

If you or I described McDonald as a "fat, black bastard" we would definitely end up in jail. He, of course, has not even been questioned.


"Survey after survey shows this (migrant workers) is one of the most important issues in the minds of the public. The Prime Minister wants to ensure we tackle it properly. His priority is to ensure that British workers are at the front of the queue for jobs because they are better qualified. There is no reason why we should be bringing in people to do jobs that British people can do themselves.
Business has to take responsibility to train young people to take those jobs that are now going to foreign workers."

The News of the World quoting a Downing Street "source" - 1 July 2007.

The News of the World also quoted an interview a 2006 interview with Gordon Brown in which he said:

"I agree the influx of workers is an issue. I think we will now have to review the law and put new regulations in place... I think it is really important that we now give reassurances to the British people that we will be hiring British people first, giving them the skills they need to get jobs."
However, in the same interview, he also said:

"Many of those (foreign) workers are now contributing to the UK economy. We have got to deal with this in a sensitive and sensible manner."

Anyway, whilst the plans were being formulated to flood our country with cheap immigrant workers, Gordon Brown was second only to Chairman Blair at the top table.

If the cynical amongst you were to describe Chairman Brown as a typically dishonest, vote-grabbing Blairite t**rag at this point, I would understand your need to do so.


"FOREIGN DIPLOMATS FREE TO RAPE, ROB AND MURDER IN UK".

Daily Express headline - 1 July 2007.


"He's much better on the internet."

Tory leader, David Cameron, in the Commons, dismissing heckler, Chris Bryant, MP.
Bryant, once advertised his need of a "good, long f***" on the homosexual dating website, Gaydar, clad only in his underpants.


"I want to come home".

20-year-old Jamie Kerr, a private with the Black watch regiment, in a phone call to his mother, Paulene, six hours before he was killed by a roadside bomb in Basra, Iraq, on 28 June 2007 – Daily Record – 29 June 2007.

Paulene's husband John Paul Ward said:

"Jamie said being out there was not what he thought it would be. He didn't want to be there. He was more scared than anything else. He said he wanted to come home… Paulene is so cut up by this. She is beside herself."

Jamie, who had been in Iraq for around seven weeks, died alongside fellow Black Watch private Scott Kennedy, also 20, and Paul Joszko, 28, from the Royal Welsh Battalion. Another soldier was badly injured.

Major David Gell, the MoD's spokesman in Basra, said:

"Regrettably, such attacks are not uncommon here… To be honest, we expect that this will continue to happen in future."

SNP MP Pete Wishart, whose constituency includes the Perthshire HQ of the Black Watch, said:

"I'd like to see all the Scottish troops returned home as soon as possible and an end to the growing list of young men dying in Iraq."
Perth MSP Roseanna Cunningham added:

"The sooner they are brought home the better as far as I am concerned."

Amen to that.


"In places like Israel, terrorists have taken innocent human life for years in suicide attacks. The difference is that Israel is a functioning democracy and it's not prevented from carrying out its responsibilities. And that's a good indicator of success that we're looking for in Iraq."

George Bush - US Army War College - 28 June 2007.

If you ever doubted that this creature is anything more than a badly trained chimpanzee, this crass bo***cks says it all.


"Three in every four register office weddings taking place in some parts of Britain may have been a 'sham' to allow immigrants to live in the country, it has emerged".

Daily Mail - 25 June 2007.

The Mail added:

"The scale of the scandal, which Labour ignored for many years, has been revealed for the first time by a huge reduction in the number of ceremonies taking place".


"They were wearing hoodies and had blue towels on their heads. They looked quite bizarre, almost like Arabic head-dresses. I could see them kicking and hitting this poor boy. He was white and they were all black. I saw them stab him but then he managed to get up. These boys were picking up stones from my garden and hurling them at him. They were kicking him and hitting him with clubs. It was absolutely horrifying.

The boys all ran off towards Lewisham. I ran to where this boy was lying. He was covered in blood. He had been stabbed in the back. There was a girl pressing a rolled up towel on his back. He was not making any response at all."

Sheniz Yersever, describing the death of 16-year-old Ben Hitchcock at the hands of a 40-strong gang of black youths in Southend Road on the boundary of Beckenham and Lewisham - This is London - 25 June 2007.

Karim Shakur said:

"He was just walking home. They were totally outnumbered by a big gang of black boys aged between 14 and 18. These boys were all from Lewisham and had come to Bromley just to pick a fight. They chose the spot where they attacked because it lies exactly on the borders of Lewisham and Bromley. They were showing who is boss. These boys are all influenced by hip-hop music and stories of LA gang violence. It has become a way of life for them."

This is London added:

"One witness said youths went on the rampage when police turned up, spilling out across the road in Beckenham, blocking traffic and swarming through a 24-hour supermarket. The astonishing level of violence terrified residents who said the youths were 'baying for blood'.

The trouble centred on a party for Tashari Richards at her mother's terrace house... Student Ben and five friends had been turned away earlier and it is believed that as they made their way home they ran into members of two south London gangs known as the Penge Boys and Young Thugs...

Witnesses said the gang members were furious because they had also been refused entry after trying to gatecrash the party... Some reports said the six friends were ambushed on a bus back to Lewisham, where they had come from, and they were dragged off by the mob".

Is this OK by you, you "I'm not racist buts"?

Are you one of those who is never going to give a damn until it happens to him? Are you a lemming? Are you a coward?

Are you a snarling rap artist who rejoices in the death of another "white devil"?

Are you an immigrant who couldn't give a flying f*** when an English lad dies?

Are you a PC traitor? Are you a hand-wringing cleric who always takes the side of the poor immigrant as long as that immigrant isn't white? Are you a lying politician or media darling? Are you one of those who would cover this up if you could?

If you are any of these you are my enemy, by God.

By God, you are.


"We deeply regret that many doctors are facing poor jobs or no jobs. Make no mistake, the blame for this lies clearly with government and the designers (of the computer recruitment system) who didn't listen to us... Thousands of juniors still have no idea whether they can continue their professional training after 1 August."

Dr Sam Everington, acting chairman of the BMA - The Daily Mail - 25 June 2007. Dr Jane Milson said:

"The medical profession has had enough of managers and politicians. Watching them make such a mess of things has been sickening."

The Daily Mail added:

"Doctors today called for the scalp of the Government's chief medical officer in a dramatic escalation of the row over junior doctors. Senior members of the profession said Sir Liam Donaldson had allowed the fiasco to 'freefall into chaos' and that he should resign immediately.

At the British Medical Association conference, Dr John Hyslop said Sir Liam had turned junior doctor recruitment into a monster that was damaging lives. About 33,000 young medics have been competing for just 20,000 training jobs after widely criticised reforms.

Dr Hyslop told the conference:

'The lingering outcome demonstrates a loss of control. The nation is threatened by an NHS in crisis. The health service needs a chief medical officer that carries the profession with him, that listens and is fit for purpose'.

About 550 doctors voted overwhelmingly for the motion 'that this meeting has no confidence in a chief medical officer for England who will not listen to the voice of his own profession', calling for his immediate resignation".

"Almost one in ten of the country's population is now foreign-born with around half a million people coming from overseas to live in the UK every year".

"The Roma and Romanians are not the only groups pickpocketing and stealing property in the West End but they are massively the most prevalent...

Basically, they have been sent from Romania or Bulgaria to thieve their way around Europe and Britain is the latest stop."

The comments of two police officers on the massive rise in pickpocketing in London since Romania and Bulgaria joined the EU, thus allowing their Gypsy populations to travel to England without restriction - Daily Mail - 25 June 2007.

Superintendent Jon Morgan, the head of policing in Marylebone, said:

"In 2003, when these countries were not part of the European Union, we were able to remove 400 people who were failed asylum seekers and who had been caught doing this. The increase now is because we do not have the ability to deport."

Westminster councillor, Audrey Lewis, said:

"The influx of migrants has had a direct impact on pickpocketing rates in Westminster and placed pressures on a host of services the council provides."

The Mail said:

"Police believe highly organised gangs of Romanian and Bulgarian gipsies - some as young as eight - are responsible for a two thirds rise in thefts since April...

Since January, when Romania and Bulgaria joined the European Union, Roma children arrested for pickpocketing have been found with Tube maps on which retails areas such as Oxford Street and Piccadilly have been circled for targeting. Police believe teams of young Roma are also being sent all over the country on 'away day pickpocketing sprees'.

At one stage this year, up to six eastern European children a day were being detained in Oxford Street and taken into care at a meeting room in Marylebone Police station that became known as 'the creche' as a result."

A report concluded that Romanian and Bulgarian Gypsy criminality was "organised and raised suspicions that the children involved are being trafficked for use by crime networks".

British Nationalists warned that this would happen but Tony B and New Labour could not have cared less. Just as they could not have cared less when more than a million other eastern Europeans descended on us when the Poles and various others were given the chance to come here.

In 2004, a Home Office minister opined wisely that no more than 13,000 eastern Europeans would arrive when our borders were opened.


"It's nothing short of a scandal that thousands of pounds is being used this way when soldiers are dying in Afghanistan and Iraq because the MoD cannot afford the right kit for them".

A British soldier criticising the fact that the Ministry of Defence had given Sergeant David Penny £30,000 in order to have a sex-change - News of the World - 24 June 2007.

The News of the World added:

"Off duty, the Royal Green Jackets bomb disposal unit veteran is allowed to totter around the mess in stilettos, a skirt and tight-fitting tops as he awaits his op. And we can reveal his comrades are outraged — not so much by Penny's sex swap, but by the fact the ARMY is shelling out for it."


"BLAIR'S FINAL BETRAYAL".

Headline in The Daily Express - 23 June 2007.

The Express added:

"Tony Blair was today accused of caving in to France over free trade as he reached a bungled deal on the EU treaty. But as part of the reform package, which hands control of 51 more policy areas to Brussels, the outgoing Prime Minister cut a deal with the French to wipe the Common Market's founding principle from the European Union's aims."


"When you compare council tax rises with the meagre rise in the basic state pension, you can see why pensioners are having to deprive themselves of basic necessities to get by. In the fifth richest country in the world that is nothing short of appalling."

Anna Pearson, Policy Manager at Help the Aged - BBC News - 23 June 2007.

The BBC added:

"The average council tax bill has almost doubled in the past decade, says a report by the Halifax building society... The rise, from more £550 to almost £1,100, is three times higher than the rate of inflation and twice the increase in average earnings".

Council tax has risen as it has because of the enormous strains placed upon local services by mass immigration.


"I don't want to say I am worried, but I have an uneasy feeling… Muslim immigration has brought a cultural rupture in our German and European culture."

"Street crime is soaring, with 290 people in Britain being mugged every day. The number of robberies has risen by eight per cent and the rate is now at its highest for more than three years.

Despite the official figures, the Government insists that our communities are safer than ever. Yet fatal shootings, vandalism and drug offences are all up and the public now stand a one-in-four chance of being a victim of crime."

The Daily Express - 27 April 2007.


"Many of you know my interest in Israel and in the Jewish community has been long-standing. MY FATHER WAS THE CHAIRMAN OF THE CHURCH OF SCOTLAND'S ISRAEL COMMITTEE.
Not only as I've described to some of you before did he make visits on almost two occasions a year for 20 years to Israel - but because of that... I had a very clear view from household slides and projectors about the history of Israel, about the trials and tribulations of the Jewish people, about the enormous suffering and loss during the Holocaust, as well as the extraordinary struggle that he described to me of people to create this magnificent homeland."

Gordon Brown, future Prime Minister of the UK, addressing the Labour Friends of Israel annual fundraising dinner - April 2007.

At this event, Jane Kennedy, Chair of Labour Friends of Israel, was reported thus in the 27 June 2007 edition of The Jerusalem Post:

"I have always felt that Gordon Brown is instinctively a good friend of Israel and I look forward to working with him. The combination of Gordon as prime minister and Tony Blair as Quartet Middle East envoy is a really exciting prospect and gives real hope for progress in the Middle East peace process."


"The influx of Eastern European workers to the UK has driven up rates of unemployment and house prices, leading economic experts warn. The respected Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development found that the massive increase in cheap foreign labour has pushed unemployment rates up from 4.8 per cent last year to 5.6 per cent in 2006...

It also found that the wave of new immigrants had put greater demands for limited housing stock, although it warned that the property market will slow down next year.

The report said:

'More recently, the easing of restrictions on immigrant workers in 2004 led to a rise in the demand for accommodation, partly offsetting the impact of tighter monetary policy on real house prices'...

Campaigners last night said the report provided fresh evidence that mass migration from countries such as Poland is putting pressure on the UK job market and public services. The OECD indicated that the number of people arriving in Britain is set to increase even further after describing the Government's immigration projections as 'conservative'...

The upwards unemployment trend is in stark contrast to other European countries such as France and Germany, which are expected to see a drop in unemployment next year.
The findings come only days after the National Institute of Economic and Social Research found that as many as 100,000 Britons have become unemployed following the arrival of Eastern European immigrants.

The institute concluded that Britain has experienced a huge economic 'shock' because of an unprecedented wave of workers from abroad. Official figures show nearly 1.7million are jobless. There has been an increase of 242,000 over the last year, the biggest annual rise for more than a decade. This coincides with the decision to open Britain's doors to more than a half a million Eastern Europeans since May 2004.
Critics say the influx is placing unprecedented pressure on schools, hospitals and roads, the migrants are costing the taxpayer up to £60million in benefits. Blair Gibbs, spokesman for the TaxPayers' Alliance said:

'The Government has been repeatedly warned that immigration at the current pace is putting pressure on local services. Now the OECD is warning that the pressures on the job market caused by this influx is also leading to higher unemployment. This in turn will clearly mean a bigger drain on the already over-generous welfare state, and more cost to taxpayers'.
But a Treasury spokesman said:

'There is no statistical evidence to support the view that the inflow of Eastern European migrants is contributing to the rise in unemployment in the UK. In fact, this immigration has been very positive for the economy'."

This is London - 28 November 2006.

"Very positive"?

Positive for the Fat Cats and their jobsworth factotums in parliament, perhaps.

But positive for the rest of us?

B***ocks!
