Westminster in Never Never Land


Westminster in Never Never Land

The notion that Parliamentary Selections are not campaigned for in any of our Political Parties is another one of those insulting fictions put about by those who want us to believe in Never Never Land (i.e. We are not allowed to grow up). The arrogance of those in the Westminster village is almost beyond belief. So let's have some home truths:

1) Diplomats lie;
2) When found out they claim national interest;
3) Politicians when found out they have supported those lies claim national security - when exposing their hypocrisy is what a mature democracy should have!;
4) Spies spy – that is their job;
5) There is little control over Spies activity because they always call in aid security;
6) From time immemorial bureaucrats (Spies are bureaucrats) have widened and broadened their remit such that personal freedoms are threatened;
7) Having a debate about a possible referendum on Europe while the economy is still 5% smaller than 5 years ago is asinine;
8) Engaging in Party Political bickering when real wages are in decline for the majority and have been for years is puerile;
9) A Prime Minister whose only defence is to attack the opposition (in this case aided by his Dingo Bad Mouther) belies the poverty of his case;
10) Five years after the financial crisis not one Financier and/or Banker has been prosecuted – while we pay for their crimes and they sail off into the sunset with a barrow load of their ill-gotten gains;
11) The metropolitan media live off these stupid stories trying to set the agenda and frame the discussion when ordinary people want some relief from the misery imposed on them by Neanderthal economics;
12) The Welfare State is being dismantled while Conservative MP's have a barbecue at No. 10;

Yes this is a rant. But just to let you know (i.e. Westminster elite and wannabes) we have your number, we know you game – your time may be limited. Real mature democracy has to come!!
