BBC - Not For Me

I tire of the BBC's obsession with British Politicians and their post political correctness faux paternalism.

I tire of it more than I tire of the politics.

I tire of the ever more showbiz charity appeals smattered with mock sincerity exploiting real concern.

I tire of the self promotion.

I tire of the conceit.

I tire of the fact that every spare hertz on the Frequency Modulation is colonised by their national and local trumpets.

I tire of the lack of public freedom of the airwaves.

I tire of the lack of balance and the excess of focus on what I can only call a propaganda drive.

I tire of the fact that there is no real alternative that is not mediocrity personified.

The real suffering and dying of the world have no true voice through them.

The real victims of AIDS, civil war, genocide, murder, state terror, tyranny, religious persecution, bigotry are not championed with true honour or vindication by them at all.
They are not objective.
They are not critical.
They do not question the status quo in any way at all.
They are not a force for change or progress.
The time for their middle class Oxbridge educated innovation came and went, but now they have no credibility as a whole.
Just as the English are unpopular all over the world, in an international context the BBC is seen as the voice that complements that unpopularity. They do us the British no good at home, and they prepare our unpopularity ahead of us overseas.

What a shame. There is so much that is good in this British Isles. And it would be lost to the world and to ourselves.

The Government aren't Really going to not Spy on the Roads, are they?

But do not be lulled into a false sense of privacy. What I really dislike about the current government, is its determination to do everything it wants while making us believe it is doing the opposite. For every move they make these days, look for the technology companies looking to make big profits from the tax payer and deliver another layer of invasiness and control on our public lives. WE MUST NOT SLEEP WALK ANY MORE INTO A REMOTE CONTROLLED SOCIETY.

Why berate a Father doing his damnedest?

Is it that this family clearly have lived through times considered here as privileged. Harrow, Cambridge, champagne and society parties. One second the social pages of the Evening Standard will feature the photographs and celebrate, the next second it all corruption, nepotism, and shame. Seems its what the press want it to be at what time suits them.

Is there really outrage at all this? I don't believe so, its just a story. The Conways were taken care of by their father, and for once the money that usually goes into civil servants pensions, or sending other people's kids abroad into danger without the proper equipment or training, or to politically dreamt up IT Projects doomed to fail, went with all paternal haste to a family in need of a future. It was money that didn't vanish into the great bureaucratic wasteland and vanishing trick that is British Government. In 1 way I kind of applaud that.

Did this man lose millions of peoples benefit details, driver details, military personnel details? No. The state, our great greedy British state, did all those things. He gave his family some money.

What is wrong is the way our country nurtures exclusivity, while playing privilege for all to our faces, an oxymoron which the public mostly seems to swallow without chewing.

Perhaps the Standard is the most appropriate double edged sword of a name for a paper in this fishbowl.

Sweeney Todd The Brownie










Tim Burton and Johnnie Depp done themselves proud again with their new release, ably aided and abetted by Helena Bonham Carter. Sweeney Todd: the Demon Barber of Fleet Street is due for general release in the UK 25th January, but not to be upstaged by the Hollywood Dream Machine Dr. Gordon Brown has ideas of his own for all our body parts.

Yes.  MR. Brown has decided not only should we pay all our earnings to the government, smokers pay tax to the NHS, drinkers and drivers too, but they own our body parts also whether we choose it or not.  Don't be fooled.  What starts as an option will eventually become compulsory, and once we are all criminalised by the plethora of laws they have passed in their short but oh too long 10 years, they will be able to match DNA files up for candidates to keep themselves alive forever.  And if they don't need them, there's always someone who will arrive, plead poverty and oppression, get GIVEN a nice big house some of you might may have been waiting for for years, and then help themselves to you heart, lungs, and liver, maybe once you're deal if you are lucky, under the NHS you have been paying taxes for for years, but couldn't get an appointment under for your by now chronic condition.

Hey, I have a preventative proposition of my own: 
TELL THE LUNE-POTS RUNNING OUR LIVES RAGGED NOW TO GO FUCK OFF.

Soon to come: The New Labour remake of THE BODY SNATCHERS.

Be afraid, BE VERY AFRAID.

Scrapped My Car? SCRAP THE GOVERNMENT

What I didn't expect was for scrap merchants to be allowed to break the law, openly admit it, and then not be pursued by law enforcement.

My cars were in a garage under repair.

The owner decided to sell the garage.

The owner tells the garage proprietor to omove all cars out of the store.

The cars were put outside, but not on the highway.

The garage is sold.

The cars are sent to a scrap merchant and crushed.

Taken Without Owners Consent is the term for this crime.

The police make sure the time they take to look into it means the CCTV evidence of what happened is erased, and say they can't be bothered because its the bonfire season.

This life breeds hatred.

And in comparison to how servicemen are treated, my woes are just scratches, or sleep in my eye.

and While we are o the Viral marketing Tip...

You are on the verge of a great meandering rant, ladies and gentlemen, because we have a recycling dilemma.
Let's face it now, there are amongst other things 2 things in this country that prevent us from being green:
  1. Infrastructure
  2. The authorities that manage or control it.
How outrageous that we should have to pay mad rates of petrol and car tax, and then not even have the kind of tarmac on our roads that prevents us from being doused in the spray from the rain that stopped falling. Christ! What we get charged the toilets in the service stations should be made of bone china and our dicks wiped by fawning concubines with fantasy proportions when we are done, and you ladies out there who are motorists, I am sure you can think of something similar that you should be placated with after a hard ride on the road!!
What has this got to do with green? MY POINT IS INFRASTRUCTURE...

One for the Road...
The Highways Agency takes a small fortune off us to dig hole and fill them in again, and then they don't even spend the right kind of money on the surfacing to reduce accidents, congestion and therefore carbon emissions. The motor car does account for some carbon, but the road works and congestion through poor management account for most of that I am sure.
Most other countries make use of every kind of transport means for their goods and services, but we seem obliged to use the roads. And who controls the infrastructure? Why aren't the waterways commercially developed and exploited? Why on this island that we are, can't we use the water around us for transport more efficiently? I haven't researched this, but I know there must be something in it...

And then there's the 'Real World'
And most of you who then say, all wise and noddingly patronising, "Ah yes, but in the ideal world that is all very good, and as we all know..." You should go to hell in a handcart!! Most of you who think like that are already dead in the heart and sycophants to the court!! I get to hear this a lot from people who love their bitterness and use it to define them, so comfortable in their prison of regret and cynical despair they think they have it made. Don't listen to these guys. The truth is most things are usually being done better somewhere else.

Who runs the show?
I guess that is pretty obvious where that leaves the authorities, from the local council who take the money from the supermarkets that produce the goods wrapped in useless packaging, we then have to pay to dispose of. And what does the small business do in all this, who had been paying their business rates all this time, only to be told their part of town was being put out of business. There have been enough satires of this to make my point for me. So who is the council doing it for?

But Who Pays the Ferryman?
I thought they were supposed to be elected by the people for the people...

So why are they watching the people go out of business, then having them throw out consumer rubbish from supermarkets who put them out of business, and then telling the poor downtrodden people that as the council hasn't been properly dealing with the refuse they were charging for all these years, there is now a crisis that we all have to pay more tax for!!!

And blow me if at the same time they don't start selling off the allotment space ( BBC News)we may have otherwise started growing our own food on...

And how do these council allied supermarkets get all the goods they sell? On the poorly maintained roads. These are roads we have paid for by the way, but that we can't use to leave a car outside our own house because nowadays if we haven't gotten road tax it will be carted off, destroyed, and us billed!!!

And why haven't we all got driveways and garages to store our vehicles, and gardens we can grow our own food in?

Because even as the councils are INDISCRIMINATELY carrying off our cars and taxing us for the rubbish their policies have encouraged us to produce, they are still for the greed of it letting the construction industry build houses that are too close together so there isn't the room, they are technologically behind the continent by more than 20 years, and without a driveway or garage that we now need to have by virtue of the authorities' own laws.
A serviceman serving in Iraq had his car towed and crushed because he wasn't there to renew his road tax!!!

So when a government lab and their commercial partner allow the infrastructure to deteriorate to such a degree that their viruses leak out into our surroundings from a poorly maintained disposal drain, simply because they couldn't agree on who should spend the money, DON'T THAT JUST SAY IT ALL?

But, of course, it must have been sabotage (The Telegraph)...
...I will leave you all to decide on that one, I have already laughed it out of court.


Can I say it? Yes:

Ladies and Gentlemen, we are OFFICIALLY living in a SICK COUNTRY!
