    Maybe it’s a coincidence that I suggest a perspective with Dear Leader but my personal agenda is focused on writing better stuff and being less distracted by some of the jazz around here. I’m also toying with the idea of taking some more time out. Heck, it’s not like I have to post, and I’m not getting paid for it.

    On second thoughts, maybe I’ll stay and spread the word.

      Dear Charles

      “On second thoughts, maybe I’ll stay and spread the word”.

      The word is already out, everyone knows you’re a prick.

      What more needs to be said?

        you are a paid troll aswell you cheeky fucking c’unt.
        both you and charlie are being paid to pump out your partisan garbage.
        furthermore I have my suspicions that you two dopeheads are either snorting cocaine or that you superstoned out of your fucking minds on superskunk.
        I can think of no other explanation for the bilge you post.
        do you get the drugs free on top of your wages?
        all cash in hand eh? shhh don’t tell the tax man for fucks sake!
        lovely.

          Thick Ass Troll is projecting again.

          He’s regularly superstoned on superskunk, which has left him a paranoid shell of a person. I believe he takes the skunk to self-medicate the pain from an injury that left him crippled.

          I think that’s it.

          That’s why you’re in such a grumpy mood all the time. You’re fucked between your disability and your addiction.

          You obviously have massive feelings of insecurity hence your desire to “win”.

          Why do you feel like this?

          because I am a hero anticitizenone.

          if we were to get into a real, physical fight, doctor dildo, it would not be possible to kick you in the nuts because you haven’t got any.
          we have already established that you are a woman and, furthermore, that you are a lesbian who is posting as a male.
          very creepy indeed.
          the zionists must have a butch lesbian rebuttal unit in operation.
          they have to send women because the zionist men are a bunch of cowards.
          they are good at selling and buying weapons and munitions with US taxpayers dollars but essentially they are cowardly characters.
          which is why they will lose.

          TiT for TaT says:

          I find it difficult to believe TaT and Master Baiter are the same poster. Stylistically they are opposite poles. TaT has a quiet, understated intelligence; is gently ironic; and has a feminine, almost vulnerable charm. I think he regards the blog as a dating site but is too shy to admit it.

      Folks can rant and rave, stamp their feet, and run around in circles but it just attacks funk with funk, the problem gets bigger and bigger, and they end up tearing themselves to pieces. The internal market of the mind is the same as the financial markets. So, by doing different ourselves we can effect change in ourselves, and what goes around. Instead of projecting chaos and fear, we project order and harmony. As we change our perception and the world around us changes.

      What Charles Hardwidge Really Believes says:

      MY personal preference was for John Reid and Maragaret Beckett to win Labour’s leadership election. Most online pundits are full of talk. I placed real money on a bet. I still believe that was the better choice but one deals with how things are rather than how one wishes them to be.

      The handover from Blair to Brown was fumbled, and Brown had been stuck for too long in the back office to have hammered out all the kinks. He’s made a few mistakes and been badly advised in a number of ways. That hasn’t helped. Things could still improve but that needs Labour to drop the squabbling and take a more outward facing attitude.

          What Charles Hardwidge Really Believes says:

          The summary of my views so far:

          I did not want Brown to become Labour leader.
          I am not on the electoral roll.
          This government is collapsing.
          The Tories will win the next election.
          Most trolls I’ve run into are frustrated or lack social skills.
          Most trolls have a pathologically inflated sense of their own worth.
          I’m not a member of Labour.

    The "I'm Listening" PM - his response says:

    We received a petition asking:

    “We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to call a general election immediately.”

    Details of Petition:

    “The last two local elections have shown that the people are no longer prepared to tolerate Nu-Labour without a mandate. Gordon Brown is a spent force and MUST now immediately go to the country – anything less will be be outright political fraud and maintenance of their expensive troughing lifestyles at all cost.”

    Thank you for your e-petition.

    As you may be aware, a general election must be called before June 2010, when the whole country will have an opportunity to express their point of view.

    In the meantime, you may be interested to read the Government’s recently published plan, Building Britain’s Future. The document sets out a radical vision for a fairer, stronger and more prosperous society for all.

        sadly as before the Tories would have taken over from the scum in Labour.

        This is the second time I have been through this for those that doubt what the bastards in Labour do. It is primed and ready to go off and as always when the Tories take over. They have to make the hard decisions that Labour are too gutless to make all in the hope to save votes. Made redundant 4 times last time as a result.

        and of course who always takes the blame. The Tories. Well they enabled me to get work sorry but thats true.

      Got it too.

      The interesting thing for me is the party politicisation of the No.10 website. You will recall that many petitions are rejected for being partisan. As I understand it, the website is supposed to represent the office of the PM, not the party, as it is effectively like a civil service department.

      However, the No.10 website now feature the Building Britain’s Future logo – which is a party political inititiative.

      Something is not quite right about this,

      PS. Looks like the spoof Building Britain’s Future site has gone. Shame.

The party is the state, the state is the party There is no need for elections as anyone that opposes the party must also oppose the state. All opposition is treason, “War is Peace; Freedom is Slavery; Ignorance is Strength.”

      Ratsniffer says:

      This article is spot on. The BBC mindset is simple to understand: Labour = good, Conservative = bad.

      No amount of sucking up, no amount of relieving the BBC of being “topsliced” so that they don’t have to share their licence fee for local news, will make a blind bit of difference.

      The Beeb has spend decades employing the kind of people who hate conservatism with a vengance. It’s ingrained in their culture.

      The Guardian is the Beeb’s bible. Staff like Polly transfer between the two seamlessly.

      Such an organisation is never going to give Cameron a break, unless he has promised them that he really is, after all, the heir to Blair?

      Master Baiting makes you blind says:

      Since the BBC has overtly broken it’s charter of being politically unbiased, all license payers have a right to refuse paying the fee. The list of bias is endless, but Harriet Harperson’s control of Dumbledore on QT a couple of weeks ago tops the list.

      If the legal system is still functioning in UK, surely fee payers have a right to withhold payment, until the BEEB is de-politicised?

        Dear Sarah

        “Well, I used to push a pram, George”.

        How historic for you, did you feel like an extra in a Conan Movie?

        “Then I went to a Russell Group uni and got a degree, then a PhD. Unlike you, I actually passed all my exams”.

        I am sorry to stop you mid rant, you ugly old cow but when I was at uni I sat exams elsewhere.

        On one course I achieved 95% and 92% in my final exams.

        And taught half my class to pass the practical tests.

        Another course, my pass mark was 93%. On that course was one Dr. Anna Campbell, Stirling University, if veracity needs to be addressed. She failed it, I passed, she has BSc, MSc, PhD.

        So let us not get delusions of grandeur.

        I taught athletes who represented Britain, England and Scotland, I did this while you were probably wiping shit off junior’s arse.

        “oh, and reared a nice boy (the one in the pram), who, if you’re very unlucky will find out where you live and rip you an new arsehole for being rude to his mum”.

        Threats?

        More delusions methinks.

          Canary Wharf Rat says:

          Roaring Twenties is a phrase used to describe the 1920s, principally in North America, that emphasizes the period’s social, artistic, and cultural dynamism. ‘Normalcy’ returned to politics in the wake of World War I, jazz music blossomed, the flapper redefined modern womanhood, Art Deco peaked, and finally the Wall Street Crash of 1929 served to punctuate the end of the era, as The Great Depression set in. The era was further distinguished by several inventions and discoveries of far-reaching importance, unprecedented industrial growth and accelerated consumer demand and aspirations, and significant changes in lifestyle.

          The social and societal upheaval known as the Roaring Twenties began in North America and spread to Europe in the aftermath of World War I. Europe spent these years rebuilding and coming to terms with the vast human cost of the conflict. The economy of the United States became increasingly intertwined with that of Europe. When Germany could no longer afford war payments, Wall Street invested heavily in European debts to keep the European economy afloat as a large consumer market for American mass produced goods. By the middle of the decade, economic development soared in Europe, and the Roaring Twenties broke out in Germany (the Weimar Republic), Britain and France, the second half of the decade becoming known as the “Golden Twenties”. In France and francophone Canada, they were also called the “années folles” (“Crazy Years”).[1]

          The spirit of the Roaring Twenties was marked by a general feeling of discontinuity associated with modernity, a break with traditions. Everything seemed to be feasible through modern technology. New technologies, especially automobiles, movies and radio proliferated ‘modernity’ to a large part of the population. Formal decorative frills were shed in favor of practicality, in architecture as well as in daily life. At the same time, amusement, fun and lightness were cultivated in jazz and dancing, in defiance of the horrors of World War I, which remained present in people’s minds. The period is also often called “The Jazz Age”.

Shows a morbid interest in running other peoples lives (Socialist constant). Crowding out Britain with folks with zero cultural experience nor understanding of the nuances of English (British) life is the new fad BUT it is still interfering in peoples lives. ie they always KNOW what is good for us.

      Large-scale immigration benefits the ruling class through cheaper services (restaurants, maids, nannies, hotels, plumbers etc) but hurts the working class (more competition for jobs, housing, benefits etc and social dislocation). So we have large-scale immigration. The ruling class isn’t chaps like me any more (though we do our best). It lives in Islington and Notting Hill and is jolly pleased with its moral superiority.

        Accurate and perceptive comment, Sir William.

        The people in the middle (professionals, businesspeople, the self-employed) end up doubly hit, as we become an embarrassment to the New Ruling Class by not toeing the line (not supporting the hunting ban, being very iffy about the EU, that sort of thing) and therefore in need of intrusive control measures (eg ID cards), whilst at the same time being bled dry by punitive tax rates.

        Thus, we become peeved, and start posting on political blogs.

        The days of the New Ruling Class are numbered, I sincerely hope. I also hope they’re all in negative equity.

It shows Hamas’s rocket attacks into civilian areas as war crimes., and another link to a British General saying the IDF has taken extensive steps to prevent civilian casualties and saying that it is Hamas that uses civilians. If anyone is killing palestiains it’s their Leadership.

          The Arabs already tried to initiate a genocide of Israel. They were beaten because they are pre-civilised cultures. They will continue to fail until they ditch the koran and arab culture. But then they will not be a threat.

          israel committed the war crimes of opening fire on Palestinian civilians, of discharging phosporus artillery in residential areas and of discharging ordnance on schools and UN buildings.

        There are plenty of examples of Arabs and Jews living peacefully side by side for centuries. If the palestinians had the means to trade, make money and look after their families then a great majority of them would settle peacefully and not put up with the evil iran-backed jihadists who thrive on war and only exist because of it.

        The same could be said of some of the Jewish military-industial complex retarded idiots who are blinkered towards the Great Jewish State solution.

        Peace will only be possible when the people wanting war are illiminated and peace is enforced for several years.

        With a steady peace in the middle east with the backing of egypt, turkey and other arab states then the world can turn to the african problem.

        oh and one other thing. in many of these ‘countries’ democracy does not work and isn’t wanted. In places of Religious and Tribal differences, any people/groups in charge of running the state should be forced by trading and regional country groups, to be impartial and wholy acting in the interests of its peoples.

        With the UN having properly funded political and military muscle with the ability to influence via trade.

        I’m sick to the back teeth of religious twats keeping humanity in the dark ages. The sooner all that shite is debunked by other intelligent life the better. Its all one fucking religion anyway, just different storytellers. Some factions are living in the 21st century, most are not.

        Theres no such thing as a religious child, just a child of religious parents. Just like other dangerous things limited till people are adults, so too should be religion, only then will intelligence be used and maybe humanity can move on.

    Charlie is so much more nicely behaved when he has taken his Ritalin. He was quite polite to his social worker today, that’s Mrs Morris, although she likes us to call her by her first name Abasiofon, but I can never pronounce it properly and it makes her laugh.

    I blame myself for the problems, really, as Charlie has never been the same since Reginald went off with She Whom We Do Not Name, the Tory councillor. I had such a bad time with Charlie that we were told we mustn’t have any more children and, well, what with losing my figure and feeling there was ‘no point’ we both just sort of lost interest. I think children have an instinct for these things, don’t you? So Charlie became more and more wrapped up in his Nintendo thing for which of course Reginald and SWWDNN bought him all sorts of unsuitable games and now his computer, really I don’t know how it will end.

    Ireland sacking 17,300 public sector workers

    Ireland’s budget deficit c.11%, less than UK’s at c. 14%

    UK will have to sack 300,000+

    Gonna happen – after the election of course. Yeehah! Fucking fantastic.

    • 179
      Engineer says:

      Biffo – the real problem in Britain is not so much the front line of public services – the nurses, teachers etc – they are working quite hard, and often not too well paid – but the enormous numbers of non-jobs and middle managers that have been created, and the excessive spending on consultants hired to do the work the civil servants should be doing anyway. There is scope for pruning there, without affecting the front line much at all.

      Has the same problem been allowed to develop in Ireland, or are the public services still relatively efficient there?

      • 222
        Biffo says:

        yep, in spades, ‘middle class dole’ sums it up.

        But seriously, there’s no way a country overspending by nearly 50% of its tax base(~£600bn spend, £400bn tax take) is going to be able to balance the books to overseas investors satisfaction just by clearing out managers, consultants, pen-pushers and so on. There will be real, massive cuts to all so-called front-line services. You’re looking at taking out upwards of 1 million heads from around 6m in the public sector to start with and then the remainder having their incomes slashed.

        It’s already kicking off in Ireland and there’s big trouble brewing. When it hits Britain next year, watch out. That country’s going to blow.

        • 251
          Engineer says:

          One problem I can forsee is the difficulty of adding to an already large unemployment total. It has been said that 75% of the jobs in Newcastle are public sector jobs (the area has all but lost it’s industrial base). It’s going to be tough for any government to cut too many public sector jobs in areas like that – there just aren’t any alternative opportunities.

          If the private sector can be encouraged, this will obviously help, but that’s a rather long term solution.

          Yes, it’s not going to be pretty.

      Let’s keep the coppers, teachers, quacks, nurses, but remove layers of bureaucracy and top-heavy management.

      Let’s sack town councillors, outreach workers, facilitators, supervisors, etc. and all of the many many others who if required to go to another country and get a job with the skills they had would fail simply because their skills are not really required.

      The public sector is being run as a kind of middle-class dole, and the time for that is over.

    • 199
      What Charles Hardwidge Really Believes says:

      As stated above, some public sector jobs are more deserving of annihilation than others. We need more teachers (smaller classes, more streaming, better results), more nurses (cleaner wards, fed patients) and doctors (better treatment per patient rather than pot luck and rationing), more police (no brainer – visible, intervening, not necessarily arresting).

      And fewer, far fewer monitors, managers, undermanagers, facilitators, liaison officers etc etc etc. In fact, none at all.

    • 314
      Moley says:

      The problem is that the perceived wisdom is stating that spending cuts should not begin until the recession has lifted and the economy is growing.

      If the recession goes on too long, as it undoubtedly will, the IMF will be in and huge spending cuts will then have to be imposed on a country already in deep recession.

      Anyone with an ounce of common sense would have realised that the cuts should start as soon as possible. The civil service know it and already have plans drawn up, but the politicians are so self obsessed with the “importance” of being re-elected, that they will smash the country into a financial cliff rather than act now.

      They are only applying to university because there are no jobs. The last thing this country needs is more unemployable graduates in numpty subjects. We actually need fewer graduates and a lot more people trained up in real skills.

      And let us not forget that these extra bodies will be taught by the same number of staff already in place. The coal-face academics (as opposed to the managers) typically work 60-70 hpw with no overtime for less than a lot of schoolteachers. More afterthought students who require remedial work for the first semester is the last thing they need.

        Agreed. There’s many a lad disillusioned by a dull education in his teens that woke up and bettered himself in his twenties. I used to work with a guy who served his time as an apprentice fitter/turner, worked on the tools for a year, then realised he could do better. He jacked his job in, scrimped and saved his way through a degree, then a masters, then a PhD. That guy would have been an asset to any business – he knew how to apply himself.

          All this boring cricket stuff, particularly when c180 cyclists are riding their guts out racing in the Tour We have a superb sprinter (m Cavendish) and other great cyclists taking part and are well up with the leading contenders, and all you lot can think about is those pretty rubbishy (lets admit it), over weight, over paid, unfit, whingeing English cricketers.

          I know sport is not a beauty contest, but to see 180 really fit men, 180 pairs of tanned legs, competing in a sport that a cricketer could only dream of fills one with admiration. The BBC do their best to ignore it too!

          Contessa – no, I confess that I haven’t been to the Tour, and cycling is not a sport I follow. I mean no disrespect to cyclists or those that follow the sport, but it’s not for me. Cricket has been part of my life since I was a nipper, the only sport I enjoyed at school. I was never any good at it, but grew to love it nonetheless, and respect those who can practice it’s skills well. The complexity and subtlety of the battle of minds appeals as much as the more physical aspects, and it’s (generally maintained) ethos of good sportsmanship) as well as cricket’s capacity as a vehicle to entertain, a capacity that reaches it’s heights on Test Match Special.

          By the way, did you know that the England Ladies team is all-conquering at the moment, and playing some very fine cricket. Seasoned professionals in the game reckon that two or three of the England ladies could hold their own in the men’s international game, so the achievement levels are high.

          Nonetheless, each to their own – enjoy the Tour, Contessa!

          of the TdF …. it too is rather more tactical than anyone would imagine.
          I think explaining what a green jersey is might be as bad as trying to explain the offside rule, never mind trying to explain why Lance Armstong, the guy in yellow, or the guy in green, didn’t bother trying to win yesterday, or go particularly fast.

          Must say though, unless you watch it on TV you can’t see whats going on.

          447. It’s very difficult for the cyclists to get away with drug taking these days. Armstrong for one is being tested twice a day. Your accusation in any case is out of place as you don’t know. Can you tell me precisely how many have died in their thirties? You’d probably die of sheer exhaustion after only 10 miles of cycling at a mere 30 miles an hour? It is difficult to understand the complicated machinations of team work in the Tour de F. But, as with most things in this life the more you know the more you appreciate, and enjoy the subject.

      Geof Hoon !! in Norwich extra popcorn on order .
      CW thinks jon peinar report was one of the funniest things all evening

      labour are really struggling with the resoucing in Afghanistan , and as ever perhaps it is wrong to play politics with such matters as the dead an injured , however the picture that is emerging is one of poor decision making from Gordon Brown in the last 12 months in that any reliable PM does not useually get these decisons wrong .

      back in march I think obama annouced the troop surge , and panthers claw has been going at least 2weeks , so he has had at least 3 months to ensure we were ready for this operation . We have been in Afghanistan for nearly 7 years so we know what we need to make an offensive , it has been 6 years since those brand new chinooks have been sat in a hangar and not turned a blade .

      extra troops were requested , no rush was put on iraq Uk forces to send the merlins to Afghanistan .

      most of the casualties have come from IEDs striking patrol vehicles , most of which were not the heavyly armed types and which are still in use , therefore safer troop movements could have been done with helicopter .

      Gordon has admitted he takes the decisons , we were clearly not ready for panthers claw helicopter wise , nor vehicle wise due to the lack of helicopters .

      The more obvious mistake of why 6 chinnoks were not in service when we are in two operational theaters of combat that need helicopters , is a disgrace .

      clearly we have a PM that says hes listens , but not to the defence personal who told him he hadnt got the resourcing right for this operation , all too obvious in this weeks non answering of questions .Even chris bryant could do litlle more than talk about the SA90 and a friend being posted there , not really the face of the goverment machine still dithering 6 days after the miliitaries losses and outburst.

      I can understand the anger as wrong decisions have been made , political ones in foreign support also .

      chinooks can carry vehicles and supplies , what you need in a rough terrain offensive , the lag times on resourcing are alarming , incomptetant and yet in the full knowledge and authorsied By gordon , 4 defence secretaries in 4 years has clearly allowed the ear wax to build up in this governments ear .

      jgm2 says:

      Fucking brutal eh? How long were Labour in power before Jacqui, the poster girl, was elevated to Home Secretary? Ten years?

      You’d think she’d have some kind of working knowledge of who was who and what was what in the main departments of state. Seeing as she’s a professional politician and all.

      She’s right about a couple of things though. A PPE from Oxford (or history PhD from Edinburgh) doesn’t prepare you for fuck all in the real world as evidenced by Brown, Milibrain, Harman and herself. And secondly that there is not a single person in governmnet with even the most basic leadership or organisational skills.

      I thought John Major was a national embarrassment but I can see that with a wafer thin majority he still managed to begin the peace process in Northern Ireland and delivered a sustainable economy.

      Blair and Brown took all the credit for the NI Peace process and managed to fuck up the sustainable economy. After taking all the credit for it before their imbecility destroyed the UK economy.

      I’m amazed Tory MPs can bear to look at the leering, shrieking chimps on the Labour benches, resplendent in their displays of manifest idiocy. They must feel like tutors to a bunch of arrogant bastard children of some Chinese Emporer. They have to watch these fucker’s idiocies and ‘ner ner ner ner ner’ imbecilities day in and day out but dare do nothing because the Emporer holds all the power. Can’t scold ‘em, can’t teach the arrogant fuckers a thing and can’t kick the shit out of them and teach them some manners.

Plus they brought back loads of moon rock. Plus they left behind flags and equipment which will soon be visible on hi-res moon orbiter satelite images. I like a good conspiracy theory but this one is up there with the flat-earth brigade.

    Houston, We Erased The Apollo 11 Tapes

    by Nell Greenfieldboyce

    snip

    Morning Edition, July 16, 2009 · An exhaustive, three-year search for some tapes that contained the original footage of the Apollo 11 moonwalk has concluded that they were probably destroyed during a period when NASA was erasing old magnetic tapes and reusing them to record satellite data.

    “We’re all saddened that they’re not there. We all wish we had 20-20 hindsight,” says Dick Nafzger, a TV specialist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland, who helped lead the search team.

    “I don’t think anyone in the NASA organization did anything wrong,” Nafzger says. “I think it slipped through the cracks, and nobody’s happy about it.”

We should all be prepared to question facts that are thrown at us willy nilly. This blog of Guido’s helps us to do just that.
