Question Time is on, that programme designed to answer nothing, but get some soundbites for the BBC's left-wing audience to shout about. Quite late in joining the first thing I see is the rambling comic Salmond, the ex-leader of the SNP who was replaced by someone who isn't so obviously mad. But is. Then there is Keir Starmer, fresh from running the CPS as a political branch of 'justice'. To be fair, he isn't the worst in the debate by a way.
Ooh! Nick Clegg is talking now. Apparently, he wants to stay in an organisation that pays his wife. and him probably, there is of course a massive propaganda fund in the EU.
But anyway, the stunt driven 'Remain' camp keep asking questions they know there is no answer to and then say, 'they haven't got an answer'. What is the EU proposing when we inform them we are leaving? We don't know, they haven't said (for good reason). So why, how could Theresa May have a fully formed plan?
Thankfully no-one asked the clearly deranged Heseltine his view. He is after all, a key player in keeping us in the German empire of the EU, which he turned on its head in his recent muttering. Just be satisfied you knifed your party leader in the back and go away.
But there it is, the Remain camp funded and shouted for by those who benefit from it or are directly paid by it. Why should we (and why do so many scaredy cats) listen to what a bunch of corrupt, anti-democratic, unelected technocrats say? How long should we go on supporting a bankrupt France and allow Germany to impoverish so much of the European continent, to maintain their own economy?
By leaving the EU is Britain really, once again saving Europe from French and German empire builders?
Clegg delivers the Remain bottom line; referendums until we vote to remain. Very EU of him.

Gove And Clegg
Teachers are incensed that the scheme to dumb down exams, resulting in ever better grades for the children they 'taught', is being challenged. The first upset has been the 'harsh' marking of exam papers, though it is highly likely that it was just the result of marking, as opposed to teacher oriented marking.
There appears to be some truth though that the edict arrived recently and didn't allow the teachers to get their story straight and their grade predictions accurate. In other words trivial stuff. But the teachers are incensed and on the streets protesting.
Except they aren't are they? Sure a rally organised by the NUT is loudly shouting down the Gove changes that threaten their stranglehold on the education system. A rally of North Korean standards, based not on anything real, but the wild imaginings of the party leaders.
The NUT are against private schools, Grammers or anything that looks like them because they claim, these systems are elitist. Certainly they achieve high standards. But the reason education in this country is so poor is not because some pupils are encouraged to do well, but that the people who want everyone reduced to a kind of lowest common denominator standard, currently run the comprehensive system.
The NUT and all Left organisations like them, want schooling to be of a very low level to turn out factory proles who will do the state's bidding unquestioningly. It is the aim of all communists.
Education should provide opportunity and children should be encouraged to take advantage of it. Not everyone will be a genius, but their potential should only be hamstrung by their own ability and level of desire, not by Christine Blower.
Clegg seems to have caught a Labour disease in that he opposes everything the Conservatives propose. It seems to have escaped his notice that he is part of a coalition, or maybe the nature of such politics is beyond him. Whatever, he is currently less popular than the EU, which is some achievement.
He doesn't want a third runway at Heathrow. He hasn't any proposals, just objections. Britain needs increased air travel capacity somewhere in the South without a doubt, but he isn't addressing that, just opposing something. He would have gained some respect if he had pointed out that the fairly aggressive attack on Cameron over a new runway came from Tim Yeo, simply because one of the many companies he makes money from has just signed a deal in China,
Hence his dismay at the paucity of flights between London and Chinese cities. Had Clegg attacked Yeo he would have been on solid ground; Yeo is a corrupt embarrassment to the Conservative party, a shameless advantage seeker at taxpayers expense. He wouldn't set off any alarms on a scanner looking for morals.
But Clegg, being a true Lib Dem is drifting around in a cloud of confusion and spouting contrary things from time to time. Both he and Yeo should be put out of our misery.

Is It A Bad Idea?
Cameron and Clegg want to negotiate with the EU to stay out of a federal superstate (for now) which is what the Brussels bunch are angling for. But the Coalition remains deaf to the public it is supposed to serve and represent and to reality. Clegg thinks that when this current inconvenience blows over the EU will be a fantastic place, presaging eternal peace, a land of milk and honey, where lions lay down with lambs.
But the negotiation would need to be more sophisticated than the way Europhiles support their cause with naysayers.They generally use the intellectual argument that anyone who agrees with them is sensible and those against, nutters. Perfectly sound reasoning don't you think? Stacks up well against those who just point to unimportant things like, the moronic, hugely costly laws the EU imposes, the absence of any hint of democracy and a crisis that is entirely the result of EU politics. Made worse by the failure of EU politics to keep a lid on it, let alone resolve it.
No I think it is extraordinarily difficult for those who oppose the EU to come up with any cogent argument. The EU was a project to bring a version of the Soviet Union into Western Europe, to serve the desires of a political elite. It didn't work for the Russians (or anything they touched) and amazingly it hasn't worked here either. It is like trying to replace petrol with water; the engine won't run. Some things are just not possible.
So no, we don't want to renegotiate our relationship with the EU, we need to get out. Britain is in a mess. The government has pretty much based its strategy on borrowing more and increasing taxes. What they should be doing is leaving the EU which frees up large amounts of money we used to give them, so they could hand it over primarily to criminals. Then the government should rip up EU directives strangling industry and our society. The government then needs to look to itself, to eradicate waste, corruption and to stop doing a vast swathe of things that they have taken to their hearts.
Quango's need to go. Industry regulators should be lean and mean, with a clearly proven remit to support consumers, not party with those they are paid to watch. Foreign aid should go. Government spending on diversity and multiculturalism crap should end. Where we should be directing effort and yes, some monetary resources is on research and development and reinvigorating manufacturing in this country.
These wide ranging reforms and programmes will show a government with a grip on reality and some feeling for the people that pay them. It would show leadership. Perhaps if Cameron cannot fit it in between playing games and taking jollies, he should step aside and let a grown up politician step into the breach.

Looking At Clegg
No matter how desperate David Cameron is to emulate Tony Blair, it seems to me that the politician who stands out as a Blair look-a-like is Nick Clegg.
Clegg has all the trademarks of arrogant assertion covering a haven't-got-a-clue reality, his wife having the same ambitious look, yet relying on sinecures with firms that earn from policies that her husband affects. He looks for the best education for his children whilst vehemently demanding that you do not, cannot do the same.
Ultimately, when seen in a harsh light, stripped bare he, like Blair, is an empty vessel.

Cameron - Held Back By Clegg
Yeah, right we've seen loads of evidence of that. Remind me, who said, without a Clegg in sight that he wanted to lead the Greenest government ever? Why, you moron? Global Warming isn't real. You don't even have to get out to know that! CO2 still rising, warming stopped in 1998 (there's lots more, but Cameron doesn't seem to have a very great attention span).
Why are we to have a Green Bank? Is it becoming difficult to siphon money to buddies? Why the massive wind farm just given the go ahead? Turbines are ugly, environmentally unsound in a real world, non-WWF kind of way, as opposed to communist doctrine dressed as polar bear hugs and absolutely, definitively, entirely pointless. Except to the people harvesting subsidies.
Cameron seems incapable of learning. He doesn't know how to regrow the economy nor why, he can't grasp what a Constitutional Monarchy is, he doesn't realise that when the country proves, repeatedly (General and local council elections) that it wants Conservative policies, he should do just that. But instead he thinks it is enough to say he recognises this and then carries on being a vaguely Left idiot.
So yes, we are aware that Clegg is even more stupid than you (he not only thinks the EU is a good idea but that Britain should even now join the Eurozone before we 'miss out'). Presumably in the same way that popping into the nearest town during the Black Death was a good idea, as you wouldn't want to miss out on being dead, which seemed all the rage at the time. But no David, you still couldn't recognise a Conservative let alone be one.

Our Political Parties
It is well known now that the problem with politics, the reason for the disconnect with the public (and often reality), is the party system. This quite sensible idea, to draw like minded people together to form policies they all support, has been completely corrupted and is now anti-democratic. When we bother to vote, we elect politicians who merely turn up in parliament to receive their orders from party HQ and to vote on legislation as directed, rather than as their constituents may have wished.
MP's and particularly PM's are sometimes indignant when their rule is questioned, when perhaps a referendum is suggested. It is their right, they say, to govern as they have been given a mandate to rule. The people have entrusted decision making to them for 5 years. And this might be so, if the parties didn't lie so routinely before elections and then, by the control they exercise over their MP's, effectively dictate.
So, if the parties are out of control, what do they claim to want and represent as of today? Here is how they appear to me.
The Greens. Obviously an actual irrelevance, I mention the Greens because of Caroline Lucas who is the Greens (should that be Green?) Lucas is possibly an alien who has landed on Earth and learnt our ways so as not to stick out. If so, you have to say she has made a good stab at it. To many people she looks and sounds quite normal, unless she is talking about politics. Here it is clear she comes from a world where some elite group controls every action of the lesser beings that she unfortunately has to share a planet with.
Lucas is a Stalinist of the first order, by which I mean she seeks the state to own everything and the people to work for the benefit of the state. Usefully, she excludes herself from such a scheme, as, being an elite she can share the fruits of others' labour (on QT last night her disdain for the Queen was all too evident, a drain on the public purse, which presumably she doesn't think she is, an inversion of reality). This attitude is the bedrock of most current 'socialist' thought, from left wing politicians to the supposedly scientific environmental groups and race/gender communities. The state will tax you to organise how the 'nation's' wealth (definitely not yours, despite you creating it, working for it) and spend it as they see fit, being benign, intensely clever and caring people.
Seizing absolute control like this, not only perpetuates their power and keeps the people in check, but also gives a reason for the state (and an enormously bloated one at that) to exist. The only 'sustainable' form of government! As Lucas proved again on QT last night she has absolutely no idea what goes on around her and still thinks we are all in thrall to her global warming scam ('the greatest threat we currently face'). She frames her output absolutely around this adolescent ideology and tries to fit reality into it. Not having a strong imagination, she fails quite spectacularly.
But this Stalinist view of ideal politics, as I said earlier, defines much of our politics and background political agitation. Hence the Labour Party are in such turmoil. Having been seduced to let a conman lead their party, just because he could get them into power, they have been seen as a very right wing party, pursuing personal wealth through the worst corruption a capitalist system can provide, where the legislators are corrupt. This pleased many like Mandelson who only like politics for the games they can play, for the power itself and the wealth it attracts. This disgusted many of the Old Labour persuasion.
Old Labour yearned for power so they could push their agenda of division and hatred through complete state control. These are the people, not just politicians, who turn up and say that capitalism is evil and causes most of the misery in the the world and can be ended by adopting regimes like those of Soviet Russia and North Korea. Despite the abject failure of these societies, the ideological Labour party cannot see or accept that they would bring such destruction and death to the UK. Though many of them do know and don't care.
Currently Labour have Ed Miliband as their figurehead, a man who was supposed to be a puppet of the Unions. Instead, he has turned out to be his own man, with no clear ideas on anything and consequently not much liked by anyone.
The Lib Dems are now a joke, a comedy party. For all my life they were always spoken of as spouting fine sounding claptrap on the sound reasoning that they would never get into power and so be tested on it. Then, oops a daisy, they found themselves in a position to share power with the Conservatives and all of a sudden they were ditching keenly held beliefs and policies like a wet dog shaking. Naturally, their long term supporters now hate them and everyone else, who previously thought them a joke, realise they are actually dangerous Stalinists.
Look at Chris Huhne. With an IQ determined by his collar size, he preens and pouts and connives, being the unreliable toad he appears on first viewing. Nick Clegg of course has clearly completed the clown training and recognising a big top when he sees one is giving us the full routine. Yes, we know that state control would be much better in your view Nick, but when do you order the extra guns for the police? When people start to realise what you are up to or earlier than that? Sometimes people just don't appreciate what you are trying to do for them, do they?
Lastly, the Conservatives. Tony Blair may have called his boastful book 'A Journey' (though maybe, 'so long and thanks for all the fish' is closer to the mark), but it is actually David Cameron who is on a journey. Having decided he quite liked the idea of socialism, but the people he generally came into contact with talked about the Conservatives, he kind of joined that gang, by accident. As PM he thought he could cure the raging predatory capitalism that New Labour had promoted to the exclusion of all else, with some cuddly Conservatism that would make everyone feel better.
But, little by little, as reality slaps him in the face like an unexpected icy wind on opening the front door, he is having to adopt genuinely Conservative thinking. Soon, he may even realise that the EU has been an enormous con and was merely an attempt to build a sovietised economy run by unelected elites for their own benefit. Which isn't really what Conservatives believe in. Over all, a Conservative is what generally considerate people would be, left to their own devices. It is really the party of small business, which is also the main driver of a (free) society. Cameron is not there yet, but he is showing some good signs, though I'm not as convinced as Fraser Nelson is, in today's Telegraph.
When Cameron starts actually shrinking the size of government and addresses the other left over issues from Blair and Brown, such as entrenched inequalities and moribund social mobility, by which much socialist strategy survives, then we will know Britain is on the way back to recovery. Don't hold your breath.

The Stupid Race
As David Cameron does everything in his power to prove that he has absolutely no idea what goes on in the lives of ordinary people, who have had to work for a living, up pops a contender for the 'Most Stupid' title. Cameron wanders from irrelevant dingbat idea to picking exactly the opposite of the correct position on every important point. He believes in AGW, thinks wind farms have some utility and supports the idea of the EU.
But Nick Clegg may have the drop on him. He thinks we would commit 'economic suicide' if we pulled out of the EU. What, I wonder does he think is going on inside the EU, if it is not economic suicide? Talk about fiddling while Rome burns. And frankly, I don't think we should stay in a construct just because the Deputy PM's wife is doing nicely out of it thank you. Mind you, that is all the Project is about; the promotion and fulfilment of vested interests.
We should leave, leave now and hope that someone of sense rises to the fore in Europe, else war is not far off. France will see to that. It has spent the last five decades politicking to get the Germans to pay for its empire, but the Germans know a thing or two about taking over other countries and are not so easily misled. The Sunday Times said we are being forced into a United States of Europe by this financial crisis. That is the sort of cant Clegg (and Cameron) believe. In no way does, or would the unification of Europe under Franco-German rule resemble the US. Its entire design is to recreate a Soviet nation of absolutism.

Nick Clegg Picks Riot Team
The inquiry into the recent riots seems not destined to reflect the public mood. Firstly, absent-minded Nick Clegg (I don't mean he forgets things, I mean his mind is absent) has been given the job of selecting which left-liberals should lead the official apology. Apology for an inquiry that is.
Secondly, if all the rage and 'lock em up' and swift justice, was the government's reaction to the wanton destruction, why now a limp wristed, effete inquiry team? Why have such people been picked? Did Clegg pick them or just advertise in the Guardian?
And why should socialist state sector job-hoppers only be applicable? If the inquiry panel has 'I feel your pain' members, why not some from the wrecked establishments and communities; 'I have actually felt your pain'?
We know why they rioted; because they could. We know why they looted; because they always want to. They exist in a dead-in-the-head, materialistic community. One that has a high opinion of itself and owes nothing to anyone. An opinion based on no substance.
What the inquiry should almost exclusively look into is why they were able to riot. Why the police response was so, so Guardian. But of course, that would mean going against the instincts and actions of fellow socialist, social worker senior police officers. So the result will go like this; it can't be the rioters fault, they are victims of a cruel and divisive, Tory society and it can't be the fault of the police, who just wanted to care for these helpless souls. Not to judge and punish, but to find ways to meet them on equal terms, by perhaps giving them free, exotic adventure holidays, or vouchers towards trainers if they lay off burning down important buildings for a while.
No, it must be our fault. We don't pay enough tax to properly supply the outreach workers and level of financial support these people demand, er need. I think 'Bonfire of the Vanities' may have been hitting the wrong target. Can you think of a title that more accurately depicts the loathsome character of the socialist cabal that infects and infests the public sector? Self satisfied and mutually congratulatory for no input and no effort, taking ever larger salaries and creating meaningless empires. And pontificating about why riots happen.

No, it must be our fault. We don't pay enough tax to properly supply the outreach workers and level of financial support these people demand, er need. I think 'Bonfire of the Vanities' may have been hitting the wrong target. Can you think of a title that more accurately depicts the loathsome character of the socialist cabal that infects and infests the public sector? Self satisfied and mutually congratulatory for no input and no effort, taking ever larger salaries and creating meaningless empires. And pontificating about why riots happen.
