Old Hoborn, it's called (in my book) Princess Diana Syndrome.That's when it all started at least...
Letting off some Right of centre 'steam'
I overheard the back end of something on the radio this morning that said that one in nine people living in Britain at the moment is foreign born.Add this to the stat that apparantly one in ten people living in Britain is non white (a good thing the multicults would say of course), and one in five babies born in Britain at the moment is born to a foreign mother (that's the most shocking of all I think) and you have quite an alarming picture.
Where will we be in ten years time?
On last night's BBC Newsnight Review Lenny Henry was interviewed about his current stage role as Othello and he amazingly managed to bring Stephen Lawrence into the conversation!He was using Lawrence to demonstrate (once again) how racist Britain is.
If Britain really was as racist as Henry makes out then this third rate totally unfunny comedian would not have made his living all these years on stage and TV but would probably be shining shoes (or something like) now.
On the subject of Othello, both Newsnight and Henry blathered on about the character being black. This is not so. In the excellent book 'Shakespeare, The Biography' by Peter Ackroyd - that I just so happen to be reading at the moment - Ackroyd says 'It is a mistake to consider Othello to be of African or West Indian origin, ... he was of Moorish stock, olive skinned'.
Newsnight and Henry are not stupid (not sure about Henry there actually) and they must know this, they are just perpetuating the myth.
Shame on them all.
The tragic case of the family of six wiped out by a Portuguese lorry driver has stole the headlines today as the driver, Paulo Jorge Nogueira da Silva received the predictable pathetic sentence (three years, which is six months per life taken of course).What caught my eye about this case though was the first reaction after sentencing of Supt Guy Hindle, from Cheshire Police, who said: 'This tragedy is not about foreign lorry drivers on British roads'.
My God!!!!!
After an horrendous tragedy and weak sentencing like this all that the right on PC Police can think about is the usual diversity/community cohesion/multicult/open borders bullshit.
The brainwashing is obviously going better than anyone dared hope for.
I've been banging on recently about how the BBC use metric instead of imperial when they know damned well that just about no-one in this country (British people that is) really understands metric.
Supermarkets: can't live with 'em can't live without 'em. So to speak.Many things/happenings annoy me in the supermarkets. One of which is the 'across the isle trolley person'. They stand staring at a shelf and instead of having their trolley nice and neat and next to them they have the fucking thing held in one hand at arms length splayed across the isle and totally blocking the isle in the process!
Morons!
And then there's the people who meet someone they know and they stand chatting to said person two abreast again blocking the bloody isle!
And then there's the person who gets to the till and is about to pay and says 'oh I've forgot something' and wanders off!!
Forgotten their fucking brain is what!
I try to avoid supermarkets and once successfully boycotted them for a whole year, but as I said: can't live with 'em can't live without 'em.
Why do the BBC insist on using centimetres rather than inches?
Great story today in The Mail about road signs in Slough being in Polish.
I've just picked my daughter up from school and been told by the headmaster that 'all the schools in Powys will close tomorrow due to forecast snow'!
Recent figures released by Dyfed Powys Police show that in Dyfed Powys last year 57% of people committing serious offences were let off with a caution.
It seems to me after watching tonight's BBC News that the BBC, the unions and the government are deliberately misunderstanding the 'British Jobs For British Workers' dispute.
This morning, according to the weather lady on BBC radio there was a 'snow event'. And tonight, according to the same lady there is going to be another 'snow event'.What!?
What the hell is she on about!?
I thought a 'snow event' was skiing, or snowboarding or the like.
I think what she really meant to say was that it snowed this morning and it's going to snow again tonight.
It seems to me that everything nowadays is infected with gobbledygook new Labour bullshit speak - even the weather!
Gordon Brown famously said 'British jobs for British workers'.He didn't mean it.
I knew when he said it that he was lying. Others did too. Many believed him however.
Now those words have wonderfully come back to haunt him.
He only said what he said in order to assuage people's fears over immigration. It was classic soundbite politics. Lies.
He knew when he said it that he couldn't stop foreign workers coming here because of EU law (and specifically how Britain has signed up to it).
But the real truth of the matter is he (and his party) don't want to stop foreign workers from taking the jobs of British workers because Labour don't give a shit about the British people because in the eyes of Labour we are all 'Europeans' - ie: one race, one nation one people etc etc.
This is perfect humiliation for Brown. Enjoy his squirming. And never before have I seen such a high profile example of senior politicians being exposed for the liars that they are.
