Damian Green

The Daily Mash gives its own take on the arrest of Conservative MP Damian Green:

THE Prime Minister last night began the elimination of his enemies as he pledged to cleanse Britain of the virus of dissent.

Crowds cheered and threw rotten fruit at Conservative MP Damian Green as he was dragged from his bed in the early hours by the Prime Minister's anti-treason officers.

And be afraid. Be very afraid. Wit aside, what is happening in England today (I would write "Britain" but Scotland and Wales have been granted meaningful national devolution, doncha know, and their peoples still question things) is quite, quite terrifying.

"S" Is For "Sainsbury's", "Scottish" and "Saltire"...

Regular readers of this blog (bless you both!) will know how much we detest the growing trend in supermarkets to label produce from Scotland as "Scottish" and to feature the Saltire on the packing, whilst submerging England under "British" - complete with Union Flag.

We'd have more sympathy with a display of Welsh dragons. After all, Wales was already a principality of England at the time of Union and the dragon is not featured on the Union Flag.

Sainsbury's has been guilty of an anti-English stance in the past, but today, for the first time, we saw the store following the odious examples of Tesco, Asda, and the Co-op, with the Saltire making its appearance on so-called "Scottish" produce, whilst English produce remains submerged as "British" - complete with Union Flag.

The Scots are not an ethnic minority and Scotland is not a separate country, deserving of such treatment. The Saltire is actually part of the Union Flag, and it was the Union of the kingdoms of Scotland and England which brought about the "British" nationality in the first place.

Either Sainsbury's recognises the constituent nations of the UK and labels all products accordingly, or they use the Union Flag. The Union Flag is every bit as relevant to Scotland as it is to England.

To add to the nonsense, our local Sainsbury's also had a monotonous display of bunting today, proclaiming "Proud To Be British". Clearly the people behind this garbage are obviously highly ignorant of what "British" actually is and/or very anti-English.

UPDATE:

An e-mail from "Stephen"

"Scotland is not a separate country"..... Erm, yes it is actually.

What planet are you guys on?

Thank god I want independance from you lot!

We say: Scotland is a separate country from the UK? My goodness, what thick witted planet do you hail from, Stephen? The UK came about because of the union of the kingdoms of Scotland and England. Wales was a principality of England at the time.

Your desire for independence (not "independance" as you wrote) is reciprocated. And if you don't know what that means there are books called dictionaries where you can look it up, dear.

Jim Fitzpatrick And The Department Of Transport Tell Lies - It's ENGLAND Not Britain...

Alfie was on the case when it came to Jim Fitzpatrick, England's Transport Minister, telling lies - making out that his remit covered Scotland and Wales too...

And a direct quote from Jim within the press release clinches it - "Britain has one of the best road safety records in the world and the number of people killed or hurt has fallen dramatically in the last decade. But too many people are still dying on our roads".

Yup – it’s all about Britain all right.... Wondering if I had missed something - and that Transport had been de-devolved back to Westminster, I decided to ring them – just to make sure.

“Hi, is that the section responsible for road safety?”

“Yes”...

“I’ve been watching Jim Fitzpatrick on the telly today – and the new initiative he is launching.... I notice that he keeps on saying it is a British-wide initiative. He keeps on saying it will cover ‘the whole country’. And that’s where I am getting a bit confused. I thought Transport was a devolved responsibility – so how, can Mr. Fitzpatrick be claiming a British jurisdiction when I know he simply does not have the power?”

“Errrrrrr, I’m not sure. Can you hang on a mo’?”

(I hung on for quite a few moes, actually).

“Hello – yes, well. Apparently, Mr. Fitzpatrick was only talking about England”.

“What!!!!!........ Only about England?”

“Yes. Only about England”

Read it all here.

And before you shrug and say "what does it matter?" may I point out that England is not Britain. Britain is Scotland, Wales and England. And when Government Ministers and Departments are lying to you about their remit there has to be something seriously amiss.

Donald Anderson, The SNP, Cornwall, And The Celtic Myth

We've long been concerned by the fact that Cornish nationalism seems to be encouraged by Scots and Welsh nationalists. We suspected that it is because of the Celtic myth - you know, "We're all part of the same ancient, WHITE tribe". And now, in the wake of the revelation of the BNP membership online, Glasgow SNP activist Donald Anderson has proved that there IS a form of exclusive so-called Celtic racism going on between Scots, Welsh, Northern Irish and Cornish nationalists:

Dear folks,

The entire membership of the BNP has been leaked. While this is illegal (it couldn’t happen to nicer people), it gives us the opportunity to vet our own membership from this list.

There are a large number of BNP members listed in Scotland , Wales , Cornwall and the north of Ireland . I don’t think we want any of them near any of the organisations we are in…

But do it quickly, this may not be up long.

If Mr Anderson simply believes that Scotland should be independent he should have no reason to drag in anywhere else in the UK. And the only thing linking Cornwall, Wales and Northern Ireland to Scotland is the white tribe Celtic myth.

And that's why, of course, Mr Anderson omits any mention of us, the mongrels of England, in his missive.

What an own goal! There are exclusive Celtic myth racists at work in the SNP.

Just as we suspected.

And before any "Cornish" nationalists leap on here, saying "You deny us our right to independence?", no we don't. We simply believe that it should not be campaigned for on racist grounds.

Thanks (for the second time today) to Gareth.

The Constitution Unit - Give More Autonomy To Scotland And Wales, Continue To Ignore The Democratic Rights Of People In England...

The Constitution Unit at University College, London, has come up with more undemocratic proposals:

'New Deal' Needed for Wales and Scotland If UK is to Survive ; Pressures Grow Over Housing, Taxes, and Political Autonomy

So, Wales and Scotland need a "New Deal", on top of what they've already got, and England needs nothing. Let's re-examine the Barnett Formula, says the Constitution Unit - but not yet, there's a "down turn" and we must ensure the re-examination does not upset the devolved nations of the "UK" - and basically let's NEVER offer England the same as was offered to Scotland and Wales.

Let's ignore England.

In fact, quoted passages from the report refer frequently to elsewhere in the so-called "UK" but do not even mention England ONCE!

Who are these people at the Constitution Unit? What are people like Robert Hazell like? Undemocratic British Imperialists, determined that England remains the last colony of the British Empire?

The Constitution Unit want to break England up, abolish it, without giving the electorate a single say.

And what are the benefits of the Union for England? Whenever we ask, we get no replies.

There's a good old fashioned, emotive word that springs to mind when it comes to organisations like the Constitution Unit - and we use it without shame - that word is evil.

Hat-tips and love n' hugs to Gareth and the Witanagemot Club

Trappy Anti-English Scot Andrew O'Hagan and Independent Writer DJ Taylor - How Far Removed From Reality...

We set out to read, against our better judgement, an article in the Independent about the Scottish "writer" Andrew O'Hagan today. As a couple of us have met O'Hagan in Glasgow in recent years and found him to be a boring anti-English (but English obsessed) bigot and a bit of an all round twat we did not set out to read the article with any degree of enthusiasm.

Even more so as it appeared to be one of those mind blowingly waffly efforts, designed to be relished by a fortunate (?) few.

A certain amount of preliminary skimming ensued and it was during this that we happened upon:

I was reminded of this the other day when Dairy Crest confirmed their commitment to John Lydon (aka Johnny Rotten, late of the Sex Pistols) as the public profile of English butter, even in the face of economic downturn.

Sometimes, locked in our padded cell at WENAP towers, we imagine that everybody must be aware of the struggle to put England and the English back on the map. But, it seems, that DJ Taylor is not even aware of the fact that Country Life Butter was being relaunched as Country Life BRITISH butter with Johnny Rotten as the "acceptable" face of British national pride.

Now, if Andrew O'Hagan is going to witter on about his perceptions of his English relatives when he was nine years old (mentally, he's now about fourteen) and DJ Taylor isn't even aware that the whole point of the John Lydon Country Life Butter ads was to help to expunge the foul taste of Englishness from that product and that Englishness is actually being wiped from the UK, then we think the article only really deserves a skim.

One great thing that has come from Tim Berner-Lee's wondrous 1989 invention the World Wide Web and its implementation in the early 1990s: there are now a lot more relevant and down to earth things to read than the academic verbal botty burps of the likes of O'Hagan and Taylor.

And ain't we glad?

Gordon Brown Demands Responsible Behaviour From the Tories - We Demand It Too!

Gordon Brown has demanded the Tories stop "point scoring". What? Things are far too cosy between Government and so-called Opposition already! Mr Brown wants "responsible" behaviour from the Conservative Party. Read it here.

So do we. The Tory party's leadership needs to develop a sense of responsibility to the electorate in England. Where is David Cameron's voice in the Regional Select Committees undemocratic carve-up of England outage? Nowhere.

And this is the man who brags about Scottish blood in his veins, his family's involvement in the "Scottish Empire" and calls those of us wanting equality in England "sour little Englanders".

Get with it, Tories, and Gordon Brown - FUCK OFF, YOU EVIL DICTATOR!

Select Committees: The Abolition Of England Is Decided By MPs From Scotland And Wales

From The Anglo Saxon Chronicle:

Yesterday the House of Commons backed government plans to set up new select committees for English regions. The Government won the vote by only 34 votes (254 votes to 220)

Now please take note, these are English Regions.

The Government only got this through with the support of 69 MP's who do not represent English constituents

What do English Regions have to do with Labour's 29 Welsh MP's and 38 Scottish MP's?

So, England's destruction has been decided by English hating Scots and Wales MPs, with no accountability to the electorate in England AT ALL. This is DICTATORSHIP. The electorate in the North East voted 78% against regionalisation. No other area of England was allowed a referendum.

Big hat tip to the Witanagemot Club.

The UK Government Says - England Does Not Exist And The Regions Come Last On Our List Of Priorities...

How low down the list do we come on "The Government Says" site?

Well, there's what the UK Government is saying about matters UK wide, or what the UK Government is saying about matters in Scotland, Northern Ireland or Wales and what the UK Government is saying on Travel Advice.

Next is what the UK Government is saying about the international scene - on The Whitehouse, The United Nations and something called "Spin Different".

And finally, what the UK Government is saying about The Regions - well down the list, aren't they? Broken up, tinpot areas, without proper democratic representation. Previously part of a nation called England. And last on the list even though the population of each individual region far outstrips the populations of Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland.

To the UK Government, England simply does not exist. And the UK regions are always the very last things to be considered.

UPDATE: Recall how the North East, the only area allowed a referendum, voted NO to reginalisation - by 78%? But as soon as Gordon Brown came to power he determined to make regions absolute, and, thanks to the casting vote of Harriet Harman on the Modernisation Committee, plus lapdog English MPs and MPs from elsewhere in the UK, eager to keep the "Celtic" elite, his dream has become reality.

This Government is so undemocratic, it beggars belief. More here.

Number10.gov.uk: UK Government's Answer to The "Say England" E-Petition

Number10.gov.uk. the official site of the Prime Minister's office, has replied to the "Say England" petition. Remember it?

“We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to stop saying ‘Our country’ or ‘This country’ when he is talking in relation to devolved issues such as health, education and housing. If Mr Brown is talking about English matters then he should say ‘England’, even if it is politically inconvenient for him to do so.”

Details of Petition:

“There is a tendency amongst politicians of all hues to conflate England and the UK as if devolution had never happened. It’s less complicated that way. But devolution has happened and referring to England as ‘our country’ is confusing to a public that is not always aware that Mr Brown may be talking about policy areas that do not have a direct affect on his own constituents (to whom he is democratically accountable) because in Scotland those areas are the responsibility of MSPs in the Scottish Parliament and Government. Gordon Brown (Andrew Marr interview, 6 Oct 07): “But what I want to do is show people the vision that we have for the future of this country in housing and health and education and I want the chance, in the next phase of my premiership, to develop and show people the policies that are going to make a huge difference and show the change in the country itself.” Gordon Brown (PMQs, 10 Oct 07): “We will govern in the interests of the people, and what matters to the people is the health service, education, housing, and we will govern to make education, health and housing better in this country.”

The UK Government's response:

The Prime Minister has been elected by the people of Kirkcaldy & Cowdenbeath to represent them in the UK Parliament. As Prime Minister he heads the UK Government. It is in this capacity that he speaks when articulating his vision for the future of the country.

But over 75% of the legislation Gordon Brown proposes does not apply to those who elected him. Only to those who didn't. Only to those who can't vote him out. The UK Government seems to be admitting that if we desire democratic rule for England we must never again have an MP representing a Scottish constituency as Prime Minister. Also, the UK is not a country. It is a supposed union of countries.

Ignorance or what?

CEP Press Release: Gordon Brown - The Enemy Of England

‘Gordon Brown, MP for Kirkaldy and Cowdenbeath and Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, is using his office to break up England into regions and destroy its historic unity and national identity’. That is the message from Michael Knowles, head of the CEP media unit and national council member, to all CEP members. Brown is about to announce the establishment of the division of England into regional committees. The renowned economist Will Hutton had described the whole idea as ‘a veritable witches’ brew of internecine rivalries’. Nevertheless, under his predecessor Tony Blair it was Brown, a Scotsman, and John Prescott, a Welshman, who tried by every means possible to balkanise England into regional assemblies, pouring millions of English tax-payers money into promoting the policy until the people of the England’s North East in a referendum overwhelmingly threw out the idea by a majority of 78% to 22%.

Now Brown as Prime Minister is about to re-introduce the policy by dictat and by stealth. Without any manifesto authorisation and any public consultation he is setting up ‘regional committees of MPs’ for England, each with 9 MPs, each representing the 9 EU regional divisions of England, which have no roots in England’s local government history. They are 20th century EU artefacts. The real local government history of England is its historic counties and its great cities.

Gordon Brown’s purpose is both to invent a pseudo solution to the West Lothian Question and to terminate the historic national unity and identity of the English nation. Brown was the engine and architect of Scottish Devolution which re-established Scotland constitutionally and politically as a ‘distinct nation’ within the United Kingdom, and made it through its parliament 75% independent of the rest of the UK. With these regional committees for England he intends to create an impression that devolution has been given to England when in fact they will in the words of his Government’s own Regional Coordination Unit be nothing more than ‘Government Champions to promote national policies and explore how the ‘region’ can offer back solutions to Whitehall departments’.

By means of the Devolution legislation which he took through the Commons in 1997-98 Gordon Brown had Scotland treated as a single nation and he ensured that the balkanising EU policy of regional division would not be applied to Scotland even though it has very real and distinct regional differences economically, geographically and linguistically. He signed the notorious Scottish Claim of Right in 1989 in which he promised to act solely in everything he said and did in the interests of Scotland. He has never retracted that pledge, even as Prime Minister of the UK.

His polices for England as Prime Minister are, however, the precise opposite. He wants England divided against itself into competing ‘regions’, he wants English MPs competing against each other through ‘regional committees’; and in that way terminate the historic unity of the English people and undermine their sense of an English national identity. England is the oldest unified nation state in Europe. Gordon Brown wants to ensure, if he can, that it will never have its own national institution, such as his Scotland has in the shape of its own parliament, which will be a declaration of its distinct nationhood.

Kerry McCarthy

The UK Government is occupying England. Its politicians are sometimes non-accountable, forcing legislation on to England like Top Up Fees and Foundation Hospitals. Gordon Brown, the Prime Minister, is not accountable to his own constituents for 75% of the legislation passed by his Government. MPs, from England, Scotland or Wales are usually anti-England. Health apartheid, the West Lothian Question, the Barnett Formula - they don't care. Most are intensely arrogant and will stick their fingers in their ears and hum loudly whenever people outside of the Westminster elite try to speak up.

Kerry McCarthy is one of these MPs. Like so many of her peers, she knows best. She doesn't need to listen.

Like so many of her peers she is a frightening human being.

The mass sending of copies of George Orwell's 1984 to "our" (speech marks intended) MPs seems to have been largely ignored - and certainly by the media. But as the likes of Kerry McCarthy increase their arrogant humming and the likes of Auntie BBC continue to try and smother our voices in British Establishment propaganda, we'll continue to raise the decibels this side of the great divide.

"Shrill" English? True Brit George Carey Doesn't Get Devolution Issues At All...

George Carey, former Archbishop of Canterbury, has been wittering to The Friends Of Ely Cathedral about devolution.

Is Britain disintegrating? Mr Carey took The Friends Of Ely Cathedral through the card, from soup to nuts. It is worth remembering as you read that Mr Carey is British, not English. He has been very much a part of the British Establishment. In his speech, the only resident group from the UK who come in for any negative handling are the English. The emphasis is ours:

"Indeed, it was not long before shrill English complaints began to be heard about the Scots taking over."

As you are talking about the 1700s, how do you know they were "shrill", Mr Carey? Isn't "shrill" a little emotive, a little negative, a little biased? Isn't there a little subtle brainwashing going on here? The English weren't being reasonable in your opinion, were they, Mr Carey? Your use of the word "shrill" summons up very negative images of the people rocking the boat.

"My wife, with Scottish blood flowing through her veins, will proudly affirm her Scottish identity which always becomes more visible when we go north of the border on holiday, as we did this summer, or when Scotland is playing England at any sport."

There is no such thing as "Scottish blood", Mr Carey. There's something unhealthy at work here - by all means put your wife on a pedestal, but don't play up to the notion that she is of some wonderful pure race and surely the sort of pride you attribute to her is sinful?

As we have already stated, George Carey, former Archbishop of Canterbury, is a British Establishment figure and is British. We believe nationality is largely a state of mind. And given two choices, Carey opts for Britishness. He says nothing positive about Englishness.

And the only note of censure in any of his "worthy" ramblings is against the English - accusing us of being "shrill" on one occasion.

At the end of the day, Carey believes that we'd ALL be poorer without the Union.

Bollocks, Mr Carey.

Sorry, but from his privileged position, we think George Carey has no perception of what it is like to suffer from the inequalities foisted on the English by devolution. And with his background, we do not believe he has any perception of what it is like to be English. As the comedian Bob Hope once said, his parents were English - they were too poor to be British.

We're sure that there are many other points raised by Mr Carey in his long speech that are of worth, but for us these few sprinklings of anti-English bitchiness, familiar Scots bum licking, and equally familiar "The Union Must Survive Or We'll Lose Terribly" fervour added such an unpalatable flavour to the concoction we stopped reading.

We love The Witanagemot Club!!

Pat Smith - Scot - Astonished By "Inaccuracies" In The Cumberland News, Then Supplies Her Own

It is often a disturbing experience to read Scottish nationalist threads - the amount of anti-English vitriol is sometimes astounding. Whilst some Scots share our distaste for this, there are always those who are in denial, but ever ready to scream "FOUL!" every time any English dissent appears in the popular press.

Pat Smith, of Larkhall, Lanarkshire, appears to be one of these.

Here is a letter she sent to the Cumberland News, with a few replies from us inserted (in red italics):

Stop griping about devolution and demand benefits of English Parliament
Last updated 11:05, Friday, 07 November 2008

As a Scot, who has returned to living in Scotland following 21 years in Carlisle, I was astonished by the vitriol penned by your correspondents (The Cumberland News, October 10) on the situation north of the border.

Are you ever astonished by anti-English vitriol from Scots, Ms Smith?

I was also astonished by the inaccuracies in their letters.

Surely, if correspondents take the time to write letters, they should take the time to do some research before making their assertions.

Pensioners in Scotland, regardless of income and wealth, do not receive a free central heating system.

The Scottish Government Central Heating Programme operates a strict eligibility criteria and the programme is not available to all those of pensionable age.

We wouldn't know. We do know they qualify for free care without selling their homes.

Also the Barnett Formula, which I agree badly needs revision, does not carry tax raised in England to Scotland on a one-way street.

Oil revenue raised in Scotland does not find its way into the Scottish Government’s coffers, it goes direct to the UK Treasury.

Firstly the oil is a UK resource. And some of the oil and gas is actually in English waters anyway. And on top of that, back in the 1960s, the UK Government tweaked the maritime border between England and Scotland under the Continental Shelf Act - placing English oil in a Scottish sector. The English were not consulted because it was thought that the oil was a UK resource and revenue would be shared equally. More here.

This has not happened. Not only was Scotland bailed out of bankrupcy by the English in 1707, but the country has benefitted from higher spending for many years since.

If Scotland wants to go it alone, then the maritime border must be corrected and Scotland must meet its share of the UK bills, before it claims the traditional Scottish sector of a UK resource. It is interesting that individuals in the Shetland Isles are also crying "IT'S OUR OIL!" and an increasing number do not regard the Shetlands as a part of Scotland.

As it is, recent calculations show that even if Scotland was awarded all the oil revenue, including England's share, it would not break even - more in the Guardian.

From north of the border, it would appear that:

a) The English have no liking for their own government within a UK Federal State and are content to be governed by a UK government.

We have never been offered our own government "within a UK Federal State". Try doing some research, Ms Smith!

b) The Welsh, who were originally in discussions for a devolved Parliament but opted instead for an Assembly, are content with the current status quo.

Scotland, on the other hand, has had a Scottish National Party Government for the past 18 months and despite Labour Party predictions the world, as we know it in Scotland, has not come to an end.

The main parties in the Scottish Parliament all agree that there should be greater powers devolved to it.

All parties are in agreement with the late Donald Dewar when he said, at the opening of the first Scottish Parliament for 300 years, that devolution was a process, not an end in itself.

It is Gordon Brown and the current Scottish Labour MPs who are reneging on that promise out of fright and their seeming inability to accept that the Labour Party is no longer the Government on both sides of the border.

Your correspondents may not realise that Gordon Brown and his fellow Scots MPs are just as unpopular in Scotland as they appear to be in the rest of the UK.

Then one is Gordon Brown re-elected as a Scots constituency MP?

Most Scots would be hard pushed to name their MP or the Westminster Front Bench, but they would have a fair idea of who’s who in the Scottish Parliament.

Perhaps your correspondents could make more constructive use of their time by persuading their country folk of the benefits of devolution and why a UK Federal State with an independent Scotland would be beneficial to us all.

A "UK Federal State with an independent Scotland"? Does not compute. The UK was formed by the union of Scotland and England. Poor research on your part again, Ms Smith.

Some good points in this letter, some lousy research and a bit of a one-eyed biased view. Shame.

Gordon Brown Makes Pledge On Global Health INEQUALITIES, After CUTTING English Health Finance (But NOT Scottish And Welsh)

Hypocrite extraordinaire - Gordon Brown slashed the English NHS budget, but left the Scots and Welsh services untouched. Now he utters pious words about "global health inequalities".
What about England?
-
Today's post links to the same Financial Times article as yesterday's.

It's necessary. Having ensured that Scots and Welsh lives are valued more highly than English lives, Gordon Brown has the unmitigated gall to make a statement on global health inequalities:

The Prime Minister said there could "no worse time" to put ambitions on hold for dealing with health inequalities and helping the poor.

Speaking at a central London conference organised by Health Secretary Alan Johnson, Mr Brown said some people would argue that the current period of global financial turbulence should mean ambitious plans are postponed.

"I believe there can be no worse time than this to turn back," he said.

"We will now successfully address the global problems we face only if we work together for global solutions."

He said that "president-elect Barack Obama is determined to play his part in addressing health inequalities around the world".

Mr Brown told delegates they were united in their belief that every child, man and woman, no matter what their birth or background, "should have the best chance of a healthy life".

But many countries lack the determination to address the world's problems on health, he said.

And this from a man who has created a system of health apartheid in the UK - where every man, woman and child in England is a second class citizen:

Gordon Brown quietly slashed by a third this year’s hospital building and equipment budget in one of his last acts as chancellor.

Prompted by the tightness of the public finances, the new prime minister, who has placed the NHS as his “immediate priority”, cut the capital budget of the English NHS for 2007-08 from £6.2bn to £4.2bn. The move could delay the government’s hospital building and reconfiguration programme in England.

However, Mr Brown avoided equivalent cuts to the Scottish and Welsh NHS budgets even though the funding formula for the UK nations suggests they should have shared the pain. That decision leaves him open to criticism that he favoured patients in his home country.

Does Gordon Brown think we have forgotten? Does he think that those of us in England who are struggling to pay prescriptions free to millionaires in Wales have forgotten? Does he think those of us dying in England for want of life prolonging medications available on the NHS in Scotland have forgotten?

Think again, Gordon Brown.

1984 Lives!

From Old Holborn. Click on text for link:

Leg-iron here. OH is otherwise occupied, as you see above. (picture pinched from Guido)

Today, every MP should have a copy of 1984. Every one of them should then look at this image and then read the book. Twice.

Old Holborn and around ten other people have been stopped and searched by PCSO's. For walking. In fancy dress. In daylight.

There was no protest. No slogans, no chanting, just a walk. OH wondered if it was still legal to walk the streets dressed as he pleased, unmolested by authority. It seems not.

What threat do these PCSO's imagine a small group in fancy dress would pose? Terrorism? Don't they imagine for a moment that the last thing a terrorist would do when approaching a target is to look as conspicuous as possible?

And here's a TV character from the real 1984 - Diana, head of the charming Visitors in the sci-fi hit V. The world was being ruled by beautiful people from far above, but in reality they were hard hearted, conniving reptiles...

Gordon Brown - Evil Dictator - Hails Barack Obama

Gordon Brown, who signed the Scottish Claim of Right in 1989, vowing to put Scottish interests first in all he did, has hailed the election of Barack Obama as President of the USA.

Says Gordon, who is one of the most corrupt and downright evil men British politics has ever known:

"I know that the values we share in common and the policies we work on together will enable us, these two countries, to come through these difficult economic times and build a safer and more secure society for the future,"

He has also flagged up their joint commitment to "progressive" politics.

But Gordon Brown is a liar. He backed devolution for Scotland, his own country, whilst ensuring that Scots MPs at Westminster can force legislation onto the English. He presides over a "United Kingdom" where you can die in England for want of medication available on the NHS in Scotland.

He believes that Scots lives are worth more than English lives, and that Scottish politics should be more democratic than English politics. That Scots should have better services than the English. In his last act as UK Chancellor, Gordon Brown quietly slashed the budget of the English NHS, whilst leaving the Scots and Welsh services fully intact.

From the Financial Times:

Gordon Brown quietly slashed by a third this year’s hospital building and equipment budget in one of his last acts as chancellor.

Prompted by the tightness of the public finances, the new prime minister, who has placed the NHS as his “immediate priority”, cut the capital budget of the English NHS for 2007-08 from £6.2bn to £4.2bn. The move could delay the government’s hospital building and reconfiguration programme in England.

However, Mr Brown avoided equivalent cuts to the Scottish and Welsh NHS budgets even though the funding formula for the UK nations suggests they should have shared the pain. That decision leaves him open to criticism that he favoured patients in his home country.

This may be an auspicious day for America but Britain, nay, England, is in the grip of an evil political regime.

Let's not forget that. And let's not give Gordon Brown the satisfaction of shrilling his smug platitudes unchallenged on this or any other occasion.

Downturn? BBC Uses Government Whitewash Jargon

It's bad enough having a Government led by a Prime Minister - yes, that's Gordon Brown, who has no mandate to govern England. It's even worse when the BBC, a media "service" "our" Government dictates that we must pay for, whether we use it or not, starts using aforementioned dictatorship Government whitewashing jargon:

Downturn?

Don't talk nonsense!

If you mean recession say it, BBC, you hideous leech on England's bum - and stop crawling to this nightmare government!

Down With The BBC - Another Of England's British Establishment persecutors and a pathetic UK Government lapdog to boot!

And boy would we like to boot it!
