Execute Clarkson etc.

First things first, let's get the Jeremy Clarkson idiot out of the way. Number one, he is the most ignorant person on TV, bar none. He is also a bigot and a racist. The comment he made on the one show was just one more in a long line of comments he has made. Let's look at the timing of the comment. We are now getting into full swing with the Christmas shopping and he has a Top Gear DVD on sale. With the aforementioned comment, he has projected himself into the limelight in a huge way. Number two, the comment he made was wrong in so many ways. If I was to say that all gay men should be executed in front of their families, I would never be able to leave my house ever again. It is about time that the BBC took this idiot off the air. End of story.
Yesterday, Mervyn King, the head of the Bank of England, told UK banks to  hold on to reserves of cash to prepare for the collapse of the Euro. At the same time, our Prime Minister was holding talks with Sarkozy to try and save the Euro. If I was a betting man, my money would be with Mr. King. It's like if you were on a ship and there was a hole in the bottom and the pumps were not working, what would you do? Yes, you would abandon ship. Same with the Euro.
It seems that Obama is trying to resurrect the cold war, or maybe start the third world war. If he persists with the plan to move missiles into eastern Europe, then Russia will just move missiles to it's western borders. As for the warmongering speeches about Iran, it's just Iraq all over again. WMD's in Iraq, still not found any. Why? Because there were never any WMD's in the first place. What about this so called unfortunate accident in Pakistan when NATO slaughtered 28 Pakistani soldiers? Accident my back side. A deliberate act of aggression and the Pakistani authorities are to be commended for their low key response.
The unions took their case to the high court because they said that the government was breaking binding contracts by cutting the workers pensions. Of course the Judges sided with the government. They have long been in the politicians pockets. Very hard for anybody to get justice in this country now, especially if you are up against the government or the Police.
Well, that will do for this week. Tomorrow, I'm off to watch the fantastic Kilmarnock Football Club take on the not so fantastic Aberdeen. Till next time.

Day Of Action. Nov. 30th.

Yesterdays day of action here in the UK was a resounding success. My partner Jackie and I attended the march and rally here in Glasgow. Jackie is a member of the P.C.S. union and like most of her fellow workers, was on strike yesterday. The marchers gathered in a very small street in the east end of Glasgow at around mid day. The street was totally inadequate for the numbers who turned up, around twenty to twenty five thousand. We set off at about 12.45 and headed into the city centre. Contrary to what the government would have you believe, the vast majority of the general public were very supportive of the action taken. Most were standing applauding as we marched by. Cameron described the strike as a damp squib. He was either misinformed or just chose to lie about what was happening. This was a lot more than a damp squib. The march culminated in a rally in the Barrowland Ballroom, however, only a very few of the marchers could actually gain entry to the venue. unfortunately we were among the unlucky ones. All in all the day was a complete success and was a great start to the fightback against the Tory cuts. I await with interest the followup to this strike. In my opinion the unions should act quickly while the public support remains strong. I expect a government propaganda campaign to begin to discredit the unions and try to weaken their position. No doubt the BBC will be used for such a project.
That will do for now. There are numerous videos of the various marches that took place throughout the UK on youtube.

Fight, Fight, Fight, Fight, Fight.

Today George Osborne, our beloved chancellor will give us his Autumn Statement. He will come up with billions of pounds for this project to stimulate the economy and hundreds of millions of pounds to boost jobs in this industry and that industry. Where is he getting the money to do all this? The answer is, out of thin air. He will let the Bank of England just print more money which in the end will just fuel inflation. The man hasn't got a clue how to get us out of this depression. Yes, you read it correctly, we are actually in a depression. The Tories are just waiting for the final collapse of the Euro zone and then they will blame them for the mess we are in. It is never their fault. It has been Labour's fault up until now, but the election was eighteen months ago, so that excuse is wearing a bit thin. Now, it is the fault of the Euro Zone. Tomorrow, the national strike takes place here in the UK. I hope every union member and also people who are not in a union will take part. The working people and also the unemployed need to stick together in this fight against the unnecessary cuts. The global elite under the guise of our government are after our pensions. This is only the first battle in the war. They are only after a small percentage of our pensions this time, but if they win this battle, the next one will be winner take all. Yes, they are after everything we have, pensions, both public and private, benefits, the whole lot. But we will be left with nothing, I hear you say. Correct, they don't care what happens to us. We don't matter to them. We are fleas on a dogs back to them. The fight will get nasty in the near future, we will suffer, but if we stick together we will triumph in the end. The key is sticking together. Don't be fooled by what you hear on the mainstream media. They are government propaganda agents. Josef Goebbels would be proud of the BBC and Sky etc. Research information for yourselves, and find out what is really going on in the world. As they say, "The Truth Is Out There" find it and it will set you free.
I will be attending the march and rally here in Glasgow tomorrow and I will be posting a review of how it all went.
