Watch Closely

I really mean that, watch closely. We are in a recession. It was primarily caused by banks being greedy and a raft of government watchdogs around the world, well, not watching close enough. So we have had to take a deep breath and find a way to deal with debt.

In your own house you would cut back spending. Nights out? Not any more. That kind of thing. A bit of pain now, but you need to get things back into kilter. And the bank would probably stop you borrowing more anyway!

Strangely though, the left seems to think we should just carry on increasing the debt. Cuts are squealed about daily by the Unions and other left wing, vested interests. But the idiot non-Conservative bit of the Coalition we have isn't cutting, it is increasing the debt. So the public receive a blatant lie as factual information, helped by the BBC and the Guardian reporting these slurs as fact.

Councils are cutting important front line services (their actual job) and continuing to advertise non-jobs, pay off executives with large cash sums (for no discernible reason) when they leave and have put large sums of money in the bank. Whilst 'broke'. All supported by people who openly lie about the situation, knowing it will have an impact and no adverse consequences for them.

Come on, if you can get people to believe in global warming, without any evidence to support the assertion (and any 'facts' you invent are proven wrong), then you should be able to get away with anything. And what's the worst that can happen? If someone actually shows some sign of caring, issue an apology for being wrong on that one point. And think up a better lie.

Why for instance is no blame apparently attached to Labour who overspent to such a degree that when the banking crisis broke, we were in the worst possible position to deal with it? And why is it not more widely known and again, the left vilified, that it was Clinton, forcing banks to give mortgages to people who couldn't afford them, that was the driver and incentive for the banks to come up with the dodgy financial 'instruments in the first place?

This is not a battle of ideas, because a battle of ideas is about things that may help all of the people. This is a battle against evil, against the kind of ideas that Hitler and Stalin espoused; centralised power for a small, ruling elite. And we need to fight it on the basis that it is real and of immediate importance. We cannot adopt the Chamberlain position with left ideology any more.
