It IS Actually 'Christmas'
Widely reported over the last few days is the story of the police in London who removed the word 'Christmas' from a poster about 'Christmas' policing levels in case it offended those who 'do not buy into Christmas'! Wednesday, 25 November 2009

These People Are Not From Wales
This story today has rightly made some headlines. But I don't like the gist of it. We hear this:The step-uncle, 55, and stepfather were jailed indeterminately, with terms recommended of 20 and 15 years respectively, while her brother-in-law, 27, was jailed for 12 years....
The court was told that both the step-uncle and stepfather are illegal immigrants, who will be deported after they have served their sentences.

Made in China, Sweatshop Britain and Royal Mail!
I went shopping yesterday. I bought some pants, two different brands, both made in China.I bought some socks, again two different brands again both made in China.I bought a belt - made in China of course.I couldn't seem to buy anything that wasn't made in China.
Everything nowadays seems to be made in China - or Vietnam is apparently another popular place for manufacturing at the moment.
I can of course see the attraction for big business to the likes of China what with it's sweatshops paying pennies to people working long unregulated hours in poor conditions to manufacture goods that they then sell on to us for ££££££££££'s.
Strange as this may seem I've drawn a parallel between sweatshop China and the current Royal Mail dispute (see a previous post for a postman's - mine - view of events). In Britain, Trades Unions have fought for years to end sweatshop practices (it's not that long ago after all that we were sending children down the mines, into the mills and up chimneys etc), but as I say we've stopped all of that now. We've moved on and secured decent pay and conditions for the average working man and stopped child labour of course.
What we have going on in this country at the moment is I believe an all out attack (by big business) on the working man (I'm starting to sound like a Socialist here - a right wing Socialist? Hasn't that been tried by someone before?). Anyhow, Royal Mail are a perfect example of this attack. They are slowly but surely getting rid of all the full time postmen and replacing them with part timers on twenty five hour contracts.
All postmen are now bullied into working forced and unpaid overtime. The pension fund has been decimated - and put out of bounds to new starters as has sick pay etc. There are people who work forty hours every week doing a forty hour job (and are paid forty hours) but only have a twenty hour contract so in effect when they are on holiday they only have half pay!
When you point this out to a lot of people they say 'welcome to the real world - we all have to put up with that so stop moaning and get on with it'!
To these people who are knocking the so called lazy greedy postmen I say 'Wake Up! Don't put up with it yourselves - fight back. The big corporations would like us all to be working for peanuts so that they get richer'.
When Royal Mail and the government defeat the postmen and the CWU (I'm no great fan of some of the activities of the CWU but on this issue they're right) which I fear they will then we will be one step closer to sweatshop Britain.
In years to come maybe instead of Made in China everything will have Made in Britain on it - and in prosperous China people will look at the goods and sympathise with the poor British workers working long unregulated hours in poor conditions manufacturing goods for pennies to sell to the affluent East for (Chinese) ££££££££££££££££££££££'s!!!

Nuclear Iran
BUT...who the hell are we, the USA, France or anyone else to tell another country what they may or may not have??!!
We after all have these weapons.
I'm no fan of Iran and as I say I think Iran with an atom bomb (or whatever it is that they're called nowadays) is a bit of a potential disaster (a hell of a potential disaster actually), but who exactly elected the USA, France, GB, Russia, etc as the worlds judge jury and police.
There's something not quite right and very hypocritical about it all.

Thieving MP's
The case of the MP's fiddling their expenses (stealing) is undoubtedly one of the worst political scandals that Great Britain has ever known.I, like most people, have felt shocked and angry over it all.
But to me the truly frightening thing about this sorry saga is that the very people that are in charge of every aspect of all of our everyday lives have actually been stealing our money all along.
And the only regret they have is that they've been found out.

Shocking Statistics
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?

Gordon Brown's Soundite Politics Come Back To Haunt Him
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.

European Court Gets tough with Jamaican Criminal
A Jamaican convicted criminal who fathered four children by four different women in Britain has lost his legal battle against deportation.Joseph Grant, who spent 34 years in Britain, argued the decision breached his right to a private family life.
The 48-year-old was deported after a string of convictions for drug offences, violence, theft and robbery.
On Thursday, the European Court of Human Rights ruled his deportation had been 'proportionate and necessary in a democratic society' given his long pattern of offending.
news.bbc.co.uk
My God!
Has the world gone mad!
A convicted criminal, with many illegitimate children - and a Jamaican to boot - got kicked out of the country (that in itself is shocking enough nowadays), but he appealed to the European Court of Human Rights - and lost!!!!!!!!!
You could knock me down with a spliff.
