The War on the English

:p It's hardly surprising that there's instability in The Sinai! You got rid of Mubarak, and now The Muslim Brotherhood & Al-Qaeda have taken his place.......so much for so called "freedom," and now with the Egyptian Rafah crossing open, it's going to get worse.
:p and the snoozeworthy Roy on later who was involved in an illegal land grab...

Mans inhumanity to man continues unabated...

/programmes/b006t14n

we just can't trust anybody.....those 'civilians' and special branch on the ground in Tripoli or somewhere in Libya are there in direct contravention of the UN mandate which sanctioned air attacks to protect the civilian population not 'men on the ground' leading to mission creep and all the other nightmare scenarios which ended up with adventures in Iraq and Afghanistan...

GRATUITOUS VIOLENCE FROM UNTRAINED STAFF IS ONE THING . . . (#3 LINK 1)

But I have notes from my brother's 8 months of Hell - THE FIRST THREE IN NHS HOSPITALS. An angle that Panorama might well investigate, is CONTEMPT FOR FAMILY MEMBERS, at their wits end, trying to ensure a loved one is treated HUMANELY AND WITH RESPECT. I could name here, a senior nurse, and a ward a manager, who majored in contempt; and a social worker who was truly barking. (The aforementioned nurse, went on to bully a confused gent in the next bed, such that his wife was moved to comment to me.) If only I had been carrying a hidden video camera!

The problem is not care of the 鈥榗hallenged鈥�, or of the elderly 鈥� IT IS ROGUE-STATE BRITAIN; A NATION DRIVEN MAD BY MAD GOVERNANCE. Empathy died along with mothering.

JUST ONE SMALL PART OF THE AGE OF PERVERSITY (but relax, bombing Johnnie Foreigner will fix it)

This is the other big story today:

/news/world-asia-pacific-13611797

Japan underestimated the tsunami risk to its nuclear reactors, but the response was "exemplary" - according to IAEA inspectors.

I find this use of the word "exemplary" quite extraordinary under the circumstances.

" ... when SPIEGEL asked a TEPCO spokesman who was running the crisis team, he replied: "Prime Minister (Naoto) Kan." .......When a member of the Japanese parliament asked the government the same question, it replied: "Primarily TEPCO." ..."



Official Information has certainly not been reliable:

"...... "They were told that the their area was safe, and so the guys from Tokyo HackerSpace took a Geiger counter and drove up there,"

".....they're in this area that they were told was okay, but the numbers were off the charts 鈥� they were high. And then 10 days later, that area was evacuated as well." ......"



Tragic stories are continuing to emerge, but so are tales of bravery and human decency:





But if you look at the 麻豆官网首页入口 News front page, it seems that the FIFA saga is much more important.

DESTINY DAVE KNOWS RIGHT FROM WRONG - EVILDOERS MUST BE PUNISHED (#4)

Westminster takes wannabe MPs, no qualifications needed, and distils the most needy of adulation, glory, triumph, aggrandisement, status, legacy, and the like, to be Prime Ministers. By their 'success' in succession, they are guaranteed to fail us.

While Westminster endures

WE SHALL ALWAYS GET OURSELVES ANOTHER ONE.

'EXEMPLARY' - A SUPERB WEASEL WORD (#6)

I suggest it ranks with 'STANDARD' and probably a whole lot more such words.

If Merkel was not being opportunistic, one could say she had noted the Japanese EXAMPLE - of bad practice - and determined not to follow!

Have lessons been learned?

/news/world-africa-13619347

raise your hand anyone who believes camoron gives two [bleep]s about Libyan civilians?

so WHY are British lives - and VAST amounts of money - being spent in Libya again? Little Lord Fonleroy wants a war, his mediocre vision cannot extend to a positive future, even Chinese dictators make him a laughing stock in comparison. The Labour minister put it bluntly last night - this Govt will leave the UK without ANY lights on.

luckily for Brighton residents, the Green council is already investing in local power. Shame about the rest of the country, but hey - who voted there??

...According to a survey of 麻豆官网首页入口 viewers, conducted by the Corporation itself, the 麻豆官网首页入口 is regarded as anti-Christian. The survey found that Christians are portrayed with 'derogatory stereotypes' and presented as 'weak' and 'bigoted'.




given what we read in private eye and that the religion department is run by agnostics and thus disqualified from judging what is good or bad it is not surprising that philosophy and religion on the bbc is akin to 'weak tea and cheap sugary cake'.

a department not fit for purpose?

Who Cares?

I watched the documentary last night with my wife who is a care assistant. She was shocked by the abuse, but recalled how she had worked in 2 care homes for mentally retarded residents where she was constantly on the receiving end of extreme verbal abuse (example deleted) and even physical abuse when trying to carry out her caring duties. Although not in any way condoning the abuse of such residents, I am lost for a solution.

Sacking and closing down where evidence of abuse is proven will not solve the problem, which (inho) has its origins in the break-up of family responsibility and assumption of its 鈥榓 problem for the state, social services, benefits鈥� syndrome. Coming from a 鈥榙eveloping鈥� country with no such services and having only a village education (and thus no interests or intellect beyond her national characteristic of caring for people) my wife is conditioned to 鈥榤otherhood鈥�. But can one really expect today鈥檚 educated and enlightened UK citizens (where both sexes are expected to pursue higher education and high office) to spend years qualifying in the nursing/caring profession only to spend their working life changing pads and having no intelligent social discourse in such places of employment? With the exception of the truly altruistic (eg Mother Teresa) only those less able or less motivated are likely to fill such jobs, for which the demand is increasing.

One alternative is to accept that our society is not 鈥榗arer-conditioned鈥� and reverse the immigration policy that has now stopped the issue of visas for those from less 鈥榙eveloped鈥� countries with NVQ in Health & Social Care(or studying for such) and put less priority on the import of those in the legal profession. A visit to any office dealing with Immigration matters and appeals will show that 鈥楬ome Office鈥� is now an almost 100% inappropriate title.

@10 Jaunty - I certainly do NOT want the 麻豆官网首页入口 to start promoting religion. Who should be in charge of religious broadcasting - Opus Dei?

I did a theology subsid at KCL, and lived in the theological hostel for a year when my flat sharing arrangements broke down. I could write a book, but few would believe it. In the '70s, a significant number of would-be priests/ministers were seriously disturbed ex-public schoolboys. Others were predatory management types. Some were fruitcake evangelical biblical literalists, and there were some, but too few, decent people who weren't too bothered about the small print and just wanted to make the world a better place.

One of the best people at King's was Gordon Dunstan, who held a chair named after F D Maurice - sacked in the 19th century for refusing to teach eternal damnation!

The C of E has always been an organised hypocrisy, with conflicting ideologies vying for both control and the patronage which comes with being the state church. Your friend Brenda has the interesting task of being the head of both the (non-Roman) Catholic and Episcopalian C of E AND its antithesis: the heir of Knox's Kirk.

Jesus is reported to have said "By their fruits shall ye know them" (Matthew 7. 16) Let us consider the legacy of contemporary prominent self-professed Christians: Tony Blair, Gordon Brown, George W Bush, Sarah Palin (as a representative of the pro-life Guns for Jesus lobby), etc etc.... . Is it any wonder that stereotypes are negative/derogatory?

@13 I have a couple of good friends who work as carers for the Elderly Mentally Infirm. They are dedicated and full of compassion and humour. They don't worry too much about the inevitable bruises. For this important task, one is paid the minimum wage, and another gets 10p extra per hour for being a "senior carer". They earn about 60% of the starting salary of a bankclerk, because, in our society, handling petty cash is deemed so more important than looking after human beings.

There is another factor here. Non EU immigrants are widely employed to help force wages down. This is nothing to do with Dr Cable's alleged "skills shortage". I don't blame the immigrants, who are usually decent hard working people; but the system, and the lies, make me very angry.

Excellent debate by Jeremy & Coughlin et al, with Coughlin being the only one who spoke sense about the Libyan crisis and that it was NOT meant for a regime change (unlike Owen). Also loved David's interview with Geoffrey Robertson QC on the Human Rights Act - brilliant stuff! How come you hadn't mentioned this earlier??????

PAXMAN'S SIMPLISTIC GOOD-COP-BAD-COP 'INTERVIEWING' IS NOT WORTH THE MONEY

And pulling faces during a discussion about the fundamental meaning of 'civilised' is what a child would do (indeed - what a child DID).

There is a nascent flame of awareness (probably due to be blown out by the Great Fart of Globalism) found in a very few idividuals - of whom Arundhati Roy is manifestly one. Sadly, Paxman does not 'get it'.

No wonder they haven't signed off the accounts for the last ten years!

"VOTE FOR THE ROSETTE COS THE TWIT UNDERNEATH AIN'T LIST'NIN'."

Nick Brown (who?) declared, this morning, that those who stand for election on a party ticket, owe their allegiance to the party. So why does the 'rosette-stand' cipher-ninny, campaign IN HIS OWN NAME during the few weeks of electioneering?

Next time a gaudy rosette approaches you in the high-street, supported by a false grin and a bogus handshake - backed by balloons and placards - ask him how many votes HE attracts, compared to the rosette? And why is HIS name on the voting paper, rather than THE NAME OF THE ROSETTE?

Nuff sed

THEM AND US (#19)

Just underlines the underlining Liz. EU Governance is Westminster writ large.

We can only hope that some sort of awakening of the masses will come about (I used to call for a 'hero' figure) but perhaps enlightenment will arrive via the internet - certainly not the 麻豆官网首页入口!

We must hope that the coming unmasking of 9/11, as an act of unspeakable inhumanity, perpetrated to subdue and manipulate the world's masses, IMPACTS WITH EQUIVALENT TRAUMA to the original event. Used as fulcrum, for psychological 'purchase' on the mass-mind, it might just be turned to advantage.

Here's hoping.

ELECTIONS CAN BE BOUGHT AS WELL AS STOLEN - DO THE 'MATH'

Obama intends to spend a billion dollars buying his second term, allegedly:



In Johnnie Foreigner land, when an election is 'stolen' we make outcry. In Civilisation Land (aka Britain) Elections are subverted with cash-bought deceit - but it鈥檚 OK. So I suppose, for Obama - King of the World - to pay a king's ransom - STEALING BY BUYING? - to secure another round of vacuous oratory and omnipotent oppression, is no more than we should expect.

YES HE CAN!

pretty clear the indian woman wasn't going to make any headway against the materialist nihilists of the bbc . the uk approved model is that of role gaming imperialism.



government cronies

another useless regulator. its a consistent pattern.

enjoyed the interview with Ms Roy, thought Jeremy was at his respectful best and he is the best around....

To me, the choice is pretty simple. India can either industrialize its rural areas: implement a modern transport network, attract capital investment, create jobs and lift people out of poverty, but damage its natural reserve in the process; or they can continue to let people go hungry and barely scrap a living day to day, in order to sustain our beautiful planet. I would choose the former. I don鈥檛 think it is materialistic, more like survival instinct perhaps. Another thing I would mention is India has a billion people sitting on a tiny land (1/3 of US) 鈥� it doesn鈥檛 take a genius to figure out there is not enough to go around for people to live like Meryl Streep in 鈥淥ut of Africa鈥� .
