You Could Not Trust Cameron Then and You Cannot Trust Him Now

So, we’re to get a referendum on our EU membership/enslavement in the next four or five years, are we? That is, if people are nuts enough to vote for the David Cameron Party again next time, because Ed Miliband doesn’t want us to have one and I can’t see UKIP winning the election, although you [...]

Workers and Shirkers

The welfare bill has just passed by a majority of 56.
Apparently, “Britain’s poorest households will be hit hardest by government plans to limit rises in working-age benefits to 1% in a bid to save £3.1bn by 2016.”
That is equivalent to two months’ EU contributions!
Tory MP, Robert Halfon writes,
When it suits them, Labour have been the [...]

Unbelievable

You might remember the story of Colin Atkinson from a few months ago. He is the 64 year-old former soldier who ended up in serious trouble from his employers, Wakefield and District Housing (WDH), for keeping a palm cross on his company van’s dashboard.
Now another Christian, Adrian Smith, who works for another housing trust, Trafford [...]

Open Letter to MPs on the EU Referendum Debate and Vote

To all Members of Parliament,
Please vote on Monday to allow the people of the United Kingdom to have a say in OUR future. We demand the right to a referendum on EU membership, denied for so long and promised by Labour and Tory.
The time is now. Please don’t believe the following two common misconceptions:
1) The [...]

Are MPs who tweet twits?

The Daily Mail thinks so, as they rename the House of Commons the House of Twits. I’m sure that the name is appropriate generally, but I happen to think that the new social media, like Twitter and Facebook, not to mention MPs’ blogs, are a handy way for us to communicate with MPs and replies [...]

The news has become so predictable, is there any point in blogging?

I haven’t posted for a fortnight. I look at the news and the amount of negative stuff bogs me down. I sometimes wonder if there is any point in continuing to blog when I could be either relaxing or putting the time into my business, either of which would benefit me. But how can you [...]

Happy Birthday, Dear ConDems

Actually, it’s a belated “happy birthday,” as it was a year ago yesterday that the baby was born which would be known as ConDem. Tory sperm had met LibDem egg and a strange chimera grew: a creature that could simultaneously be conservative and liberal, supposed opposites.
On the face of it, these differences would seem impossible [...]

Gollygate 2: it’s not child’s play.

Husband and wife, Bill and Star Etheridge, were due to represent the Tory Party at the upcoming local elections. They also run their local branch of The Campaign Against Political Correctness. It has been clear for a while now that these two interests go together like chalk and cheese in David Cameron’s unconservative party.
The couple [...]

A week is a long time in blogging

It’s a funny old game, this blogging. I admire those who can produce high quality posts day in and day out (they know who they are!), but I haven’t been able to get a post out for a whole week. I keep hoping that one day I will be ordered enough to be more prolific. [...]

“I am the EU” – our glorious leader speaks!
