France, UK, Olympic rip off.

It was good to see that the French voters finally managed to get rid of that obnoxious little man Sarkozy. He was unable to to disprove the allegations that Col. Gaddafi had funded his initial election campaign, and it was significant that Sarkozy was one of the most vociferous in getting Gaddafi executed, sorry, murdered. Now that he is no longer in power, I hope that Mr. Hollande will hold a public enquiry into Sarkozy's election campaign.
Cameron and Clegg have come out and said that they will reaffirm the coalitions vows. Does this constitute a civil partnership, and therefore bigamy, as they are both married already? I jest, of course.
I noticed that the Americans have thwarted an attempt, or should I say another attempt to smuggle a bomb hidden in a passengers underwear onto a plane. It was a set up on Christmas day in 2009, and I have suspicions that it is a set up now. This bomb did not contain metal and so would not have been detected. What about the scanners? The CIA stepped in and apprehended the would be bomber. Have the CIA agents got x-ray vision? I await further developments with interest.
The test event at London's Olympic stadium highlighted some worries for spectators attending the real thing. Food and drink prices were reported to be excessively high. For instance, a 500ml bottle of water will cost £1.60 and a basic lunch will cost as much as £40. No drink will be allowed to be taken into the events and, food will be allowed, but not an excessive amount. Spectators will be allowed to take empty bottles in to the stadium and fill them up with water for free. Rip off prices, I think you will agree. There will be airport style security at the events and armed troops will be on the streets in and around the venues. All in all, a pretty intimidating atmosphere. Thankfully, I will not be attending.
The turnout of voters at last Thursday's UK local elections was very low, in fact the majority of eligible voters did not bother to cast their vote. Ed Miliband, today commented that we face a crisis in politics due to the disillusionment of the electorate. I think he got it wrong. The politicians face a crisis. The reason that people do not vote is because they see that it makes no difference who or which party you vote for, everything carries on as before. The three big parties have the same policies and tell the same lies about what they are going to do to benefit the people of this country. There is never any benefit for the people, there is only benefit for the rich minority and British soldiers are still fighting and dying in illegal and unnecessary foreign wars. The population of the UK are being backed into a corner and very soon there will be a tipping point and when that is reached, who knows what will happen. I have an idea, but voicing it is probably illegal, and as our internet activity is being illegally monitored, it would not be prudent to mention the word riots. Oops.
That's all I have for now.
