Fear And Loathing

Difficult times, with absolutely no reason to be. But when you fail to recognise an enemy, when you are faced with war and you either don't mobilise, or use insufficient forces, what do you suppose happens?

This country (and the US with most other Western style democracies following along) have been faced with an implacable enemy engaging in an ideological war. Marx attempted to start that war, using 'conventional' forces. He came to the conclusion that 'the people' were oppressed. As with most things there was a kernel of truth to this assertion.

But he then got carried away, coming to believe it was a fundamental truth that would cause this trampled mass of people to rise up and violently overthrow their 'masters'. The trampled didn't quite see it like that though. So unreliable (Corbyn would sympathise).

So, after decades of trying and seeing sensible, grown up people turning their backs on nihilism the Marxists went for the long game. Join all the key institutions and stay resolutely against capitalism (common sense, best outcomes, friends, family, country...) and capitalism could be destroyed from within.

Marxism of course, needs proles, uneducated idiots who don't question them, accept their hard lives and do all the real work, so the education system had to be destroyed. How would you say that was doing? Try asking a youngster today a fairly straightforward question about anything detailed (i.e. not TV, social media or celebrity related). They won't have a clue. Capital of Peru? No chance ("What's Paroo?")

The Civil Service? Well, seemed very unhappy to be leaving a leftie dictatorship. The police? That would be the no longer crime focussed police. The courts? I don't need to go on do I?

But Climate Change is their real push. This is the global anti-capitalist play, to get countries to destroy their own economies. They are the girlfriend who chips away and bullies the 'boyfriend' into killing himself.

The climate is changing, it has been getting warmer. You would be pleased surely that the Thames doesn't freeze over any more? Crops grow more readily, we don't die of the cold so regularly. What would you rather have, the Medieval Warm Period or the Little Ice Age?

But science tells us that increased concentrations of CO2 causes the temperature to go up and we are churning out loads of CO2. The Greenhouse Gas theory is sound, too much of certain gases and the planet absorbs heat from the sun, but won't let it escape. We're done for.

But we have no idea what the concentration that is too much is. Fundamentally, we don't understand climate. But huge though it is, our output of CO2 etc is insignificant to the planet. It doesn't notice.

You'll notice there is never a debate about Climate Change, just the propaganda from the likes of the BBC. Obviously, when you cannot possibly support your argument, you don't have a debate. Hence for the first time ever in human history, the science is settled. We have a pristine, perfect answer to a scientific conundrum.

Except, we don't. We have a bunch of lies. There are fewer big storms hitting landfall, fewer areas of the planet burned, rain is as it has been for decades, you name it and it isn't what the eco loons claim, with no data (they do present cooked data, or just lies). The Met Office recently claimed that last year was the hottest evah. It wasn't and their own records prove this, but you only heard what they said. Who checks these days? Not dopey kids.

Which brings us on to Greta Thunberg. The poster child. In the Telegraph today, Phillip Johnston has a headline, saying if he had to choose between Greta and Trump, he'd go with Greta. Well, I guess the choice between the President of the United States of America, who is a PR disaster, but has also reduced unemployment, reduced energy prices making US industry more competitive and child puppet of anti-capitalist extremists, I suppose it would be difficult.

Green Crap

So the money grabber, in receipt of a large income from Green firms, Tim Yeo leading as he does the Energy committee in the Commons (so useful for channelling funds to your projects!) has some bright ideas about 'sceptics'.

He thinks asking loaded questions is a proper inquiry. He thinks being a politically motivated activist, involved with anti-capitalist agendas, is no reason why they shouldn't also be a Chapter editor for the IPCC report. You know, the thing governments hang on, the thing that claims to be the best advice on 'Climate Change'.

Turns out, most of it is written by people to whom science itself is a stranger and who have a desired objective for the document that influences governments and it has nothing to do with weather, climate or the welfare of mankind. If I wrote a report that I had discovered life on Mars it would be no less incredible nor any less true than these infantile imbeciles come up with. All I would have to do is adopt the same tactics as the anti-capitalists (sorry, environmentalists).

I do not have to prove it scientifically. There should be no debate about my assertions. The science is settled. Everyone agrees with me and anyone who doesn't is a denier. When the nut-jobs come out of the woodwork to agree with me, I will claim they are eminent scientists and part of the consensus. Pointing out that being only a political activist, with a clear and biased agenda doesn't affect their ability to write a report about their chosen subject.

The people you see chanting outside power plants that keep them safe in their daily lives (too complex for them to grasp) fall into three categories. The political agitators mentioned above, idealistic schoolchildren (most at university) and people- mainly women -from leafy suburbia. If they appeared on mastermind their specialist topic would be social policy, or claiming benefits or where to get the best anti antimacassars. Climate science is not something they have ever really bothered with, just that it seems we shouldn't be destroying our planet, without knowing that well, actually, we aren't.

Please, please, please, deselect Yeo and tell him to never interfere with policy for personal gain again.

Playing With Our Money

The things politicians here have forgotten are legion. They have forgotten that they serve the people. They have forgotten that they are not above the law, they have forgotten that they are to protect the sovereignty of the United Kingdom. They have forgotten that they are to provide services and infrastructures desired by the people. They have forgotten that they are to debate and come to conclusions based on understanding and purpose.

What they think, it seems, is their job is to seek sinecures based around the influence they can peddle whilst in positions of power, to construct ideologies and to spend our money on themselves and their pet projects. Oh and seek ways to stay in power for ever.

Let us not beat around the bush and worry about pedantic points. This country is now in thrall to the bureaucrats in Brussels. We have to comply with the rules they issue and none of them are elected. We have no power over Brussels and it was always intended to be so. (MEP's are not part of the process, they are trinkets to give an impression of respectability).

A huge amount of business activity now buzzes around government like flies on a turd. Companies like Capita, PriceWaterhouse, G4S and many, many others. Their business is hugely reliant on taxpayer money and often they act as advisers telling government what a great idea it is to spend money on consultants. No quality of outcome or productivity is ever attached to these consultations, just huge and disproportionate invoices.

One of the many scams that New Labour committed to was the Private Finance Initiative where, to keep debt off the books, private industry would pay to build infrastructure projects and then charge fees way above the cost of building and running the things. Which is a major reason for hospitals being unable now to balance their books. They are having to pay most of their budget to New Labour's friends.

Mostly 'cost overruns', which are actually just theft in most cases are tolerated by the incompetents government pays large salaries to, to write the contracts. Even when a clear cut deal allows for no overrun the company with its hand out still seems to get paid. And the only time it hasn't, when the Health service IT system really, really wasn't working and money was disappearing like a politicians morality, the companies who had created the failure pulled out.

Yep, after years of promises and non-delivery of anything other than regular and very large bills, companies like CSC suddenly realised that if they were going to held to account and not paid more than agreed but have to carry on working until it was delivered, they decided to call it a day. What does that tell you? It suggests to me that a)the bureaucrats are beyond useless and b) the companies involved (and not just CSC) knew they would never deliver.

Then we have not just foreign aid but a whole nexus of Left wing bodies, think tanks, foundation, policy units and such like that all sponge off the taxpayer to spit anti-capitalist bile at the levers of power. The EU, you will be surprised to hear doesn't just waste money helping Spain build pointless roads and airports, or fill the pockets of gangsters in Italy and Greece (though it does work hard and closely with these), but also funds an enormous range of EU propaganda projects and even more Marxist bodies.

These then harangue and lecture on Left wing ideology and plant stories in the compliant and unthinking media. This is why the global warming scam get such publicity and support and why anti-fracking groups are so well funded.

So no, there is no money for your pension, a care home, hospitals, schools or repairing the roads, even though your energy bills carry hidden taxes and direct taxes keep rising. You have to pay for the politicians vanity projects and a vast array of anti-capitalists before anything useful can be done for you. Remember, without big government you would be freer, have more money and more say in what happens in your country. But why would you want any of that?

Balcombe Non Fracking

Just seen the latest disgraceful behaviour of violent, Marxist anti-capitalists on the news, where the enemy is a fuel that will help make heating affordable for the poor. It is amazing that in a compassionate country we do not have enough mental care homes for them and enough prisons for a good number of them. They are here, seeking to recreate North Korea to meet their ideological goals in Britain. Successful economies terrify them as people don't tend to tolerate totalitarian regimes when they have access to opportunity.

So cheap fuel is an absolute horror for them. With the global warming scam they thought they had the perfect weapon to destroy Western civilisation, democracy and capitalism. But people quite like choice, wealth and being able to make better lives for themselves. These Marxists though want a state where you only do what you are told. By them of course.

They can't work of course, because they have to bring about Utopia and have to spend their time thinking up rules. You have to work to pay taxes to support them, naturally. And they will need cars and special lanes to drive in due to the urgent nature of their business, on your behalf. And we must build a defence against the end of the World.

Heard this somewhere before? Yep, the Global Warming scam is just the Marxists having a laugh but actually using a version of Animal Farm for real. And sops like Cameron don't even realise, that is the biggest joke. The Red/Greens have conned you with the most obvious scam they could think of and you still fell for it!

Or maybe it was inspired by the slightly less profound, Chicken Little. Same story, same substance.

Next time an eco loon tells you what to think ask them to prove it. Not quote how many people they claim support their view, real provable, observable facts. Let me give you a prediction. At that point they will call you a fascist and move on.
