SUPER-EFFICIENT

I just had my flu jab – In the building for 3 minutes max! No queue, name and D.o.B. Sit, stabbed and goodbye. Thank you NHS.

The garnd old Duke of York eventually has decided that he is down. Time to do away with all the bullshit honours. Andrew Windsor has revealed what a sleaze bag he is – and there are 93 peers who have hereditary privileges in our Parliament. Can we also dispose of the Right Honourable bollox. Does the CoE also warrant having Archbishopsies in the HoL – we are not a christian country anymore although I would suggest that representives of religious bodies could be co-opted into a Second Chamber of government. Aagh – brain ache! Football back to normal today. Oh and a funny – James O’Brien received what is presumably a mis-directed message “I am having a poo. Can you phone Rach!”. made me laugh

ASTON VILLA

Jewes versus Israelis. I am fed up with Israelies hiding behind the Jewish banner. Jews are welcome at Villa Park but Israelis are not. Simple discretion. Israelis who oppose the genocide in Gaza will also be welcome.

So most politicians have weighed in to support Israelis. Most Macabi FC supporters maybe Jews, but their supporters have shown their thuggery in the past – most recently in Amsterdam. Badenoch is talking bollocks with and anti-islamist bent. The police in the West Midlands have made a sensible decisions. Violence is likely without a bank. Should police have to face the inevitable violence – maybe they could all call in sick! Starmer is a Zionist without a doubt. I suspect that Villa Park will be surrounded by pro-Palestinian posters and flags. Trump and the republican fungus will be keen to condemn the UK and support the anti-law and order thugs of Reform and the Nasty Party.

Statement “are you Jewish, Muslim, Christian, Buddhist, Taoist, Shinto, Atheist, Agnostic – just keep it to yourself”.

As a state the actions of Israel are alongside Russia in Ukraine.

AUTUMN

It has kind of creeped in this year – no great storm, just a steady lowering of temperatures and the leaves slowly turning into their finest display of colour. I have just harvested the last of the tomatoes – they seemed reluctant to grow large but their embarrassment at being found out gave them away – a little tough skinned but still sweet – bless! My chillies have been spectacularly awful this year – just one plant with 5 small fruits. Basil has behaved well and hopefully will go to seed. Then I need to clear the greenhouse. Out front the sage and rosemary continue to compete, for volume the sage wins but by keeping its dignity I think the ultimate winner is the rosemary – I need to care for the thyme to make sure her larger aunts are not overpowering her. My 25 mints are diminishing fast – I think they are not accustomed to fertile soil, prefering to scrap with other plants for a grip on life. Chicory and evening primrose flourish when deprived of nurture and love! and fennel takes its chances where it can. Hopefully my roses will flourish next year – the yellow one is spectacular, hey little ones – see what you can become? And finally the apples – every other day I am making a variation on apple stew – at the weekend I might go for an apple crumble with cinnamon and ??? Apricot tree looks OK and hopefully will provide next summer, I will discipline the Mulberry Bush soon – it is getting above itself for the fruit it provides!

NO SURPRISE

I think that it was Trump who said; when asked about Russia spying “of course we do it as well”. So it will be no shock that the Chinese Government has spies in the UK – is that not the main purpose of Embassies? And of course Starmer did not want a very high profile trial when he is trying to get a trade deal with China: especially important when Trump is throwing around tariffs like confetti at a tacky wedding. The knock on impacts of Trump imposing punitive tariffs on China could be China dumping products in Europe, thus undermining our economy. But the fuckwits do not care – they want to undermine the UK economy to get their buddies back in power and stop taxes on the rich – fuckers!

We have a polarised nation between centre right and right. The right want to win at all costs – if the economy tanks they will be ecstatic! Traditional conservatives would have been satisfied to see the economy tank, but not overjoyed – they gave a shit about their constituents. Germany is discussing the return of conscription to fill the space vacated by those young who have a choice! The flag shaggers should be signed up, but not given live bullets until they can pass a simple intelligence test! Interestingly Germany is also proposing large tax breaks to encourage those reaching retirement age to stay on at work. 9% of their workforce is reaching retirement age in next 10 years. Due to migrants the UK figures maybe slightly better. Since my own retirement I have advocated a phased retirement rather than a sharp departure. PS. Is is a requirement of Pointless that at least one member of each team, and preferably both should be retired? Maybe a government should come up with an alternative to SureStart, maybe a SureFinish? Give those retired respect and a non-paying job in society?

SHOP LOCAL

OK I use he supermarket for bulk shopping, but my local shop is wonderful. Yesterday I went to get cash out but screwed up my details and card was locked which also locked by phone card. I didn’t realise until I went to pay and it was refused. With no hesitation the manager who was behind the counter whipped out his personal bank card and paid! No questions or hesitation. Made my shitty day 100 times better thank you.

….The store is Sandford Stores and the great manager is AARON BLEACH -a very nice person.

FUCK THE DAILY MAIL

What a nasty litte bags of shit it, and Littlejohn are. Headline front page today blames the Manchester attack on “woke police chiefs and left wing politicians’. No mention of their campaign to sow hatred and division in our society. No mention of the attack on a Mormon church in the USA by a trump supporter. If any organisation is complicite in this attack it is the paper that supprts those undermining this great country of ours. Of course I condemn the cowardly attack without reservation. I also condemn the Jews who have not condemned Israel for its cowardly attacks on Palestine children – 10’s of thousands slaughtered by the Israeli government. I even heard a jew on the radio condemning Starmer and claiming it was his fault for recognising Palestine. No mention of a humanitarian convoy being intercepted. Israeli’s seem adept at killing innocents and also journalists, but have been incapable of finding their hostages, despite $ billions from the USA.

In a rather pathetic gesture today I put the Daily Hate upside down on the news stand today.

Of course anti-semitism is on the rise, as is anti-muslim activity. The dissemination of hate by the RW Press and Farage and the right wing of the Conservative Party has spread like a virus. Flag waving morons have been given the go ahead by politicians who hide behind masks of purported innocence. A three year old coloured child was abused in the street in Bristol yesterday – is this what we want for the UK? It will not remain united for long.

75% of British Jews feel an emotional attachment to Israel ! Why? I do not feel emotionally attached to ex-pats wherever? Did Christians in the UK have an emotional attachment to Nazi Germany? The world would be a better place without nationalism, patriotism, religeous fundamentalism, and anything else that the flag shaggers rally behind. Please can we return to the imperfect 1970’s and 1980’s when at least society seemed to becoming less intolerant, at least until Thatcher fucked society!

LABOUR

So the government is still paranoid about Reform. Putting money into poor communities obviously welcome, but they need to do more. people want a vision of the future that is an improvement on their current status. Yes NHS waiting times need reducing as do pot holes and street crime. These have a major impact on lives – the majority of peole are not concerned with small boats and migrants as long as they are financially ok and can look to the future with hope. I know the Tories left this country in a mess in just about every department. However Labour have not made huge inroads in sorting the mess out.

Adopting watered down Reform Policies will be futile and often the opposite of what people voted for. And yes I do blame Starmer for beleiving he can be Tony Blair Mark 2. If charisma is missing, then he needs to ensure super efficiency – neither is apparent. Andy Burnham would seem a capable alternative – although I am sure the scum papers are already trawling the Manchester suburbs looking for any sign that a council workman has not fulfilled his duties or some poor pensioner who tripped on a dodgy pavement. Most of the detail that filters down from the north is that Manchester is quite a boom town (even with ManUtd performing badly – heehee!). However I am not a follower of the different factions in the Labour Party. What I do know is that they need a strong Comms Team to flood the Internet, not with generalised topics like party political broadcast – but with messages and sponsors directed at specific demographics.

New topic – free speech. I am pissed off with Americans lecturing us on free speech. They are the worst – any journalist who had criticised Trump was banned from press conferences when he visited. Israel has banned all journalists from Gaza since their invasion – so much for free speech. Kimmel on ABC was suspended after criticisng Charlie Kirk – ABC is owned by Disney Corp who lick Trumps arse along with most other media outlets in the USA. Trump was appalled at his reinstatement.

Over here. Led by Donkeys had 4 members arrested for malicious communication. Thousands have been arrested for supporting Palestine (and please, stop pretending that they are supporting a terrorist organisation). Britain apparently has the highest arrest rate in the world for abuse on the internet according to chief cunt Robinson. However none of the claims about other countries add up! Hopefully teenage hate and rude pics published on line are followed up. Women who choose abortion should be allowed to do so without harassment. Freedom of speech allows an orange twat to claim that paracetamol causes autism? WTF! He will be saying that eating ice cream causes skin cancer!

Farage meanwhile claims not to know whether the President is correct – I suspect, but do not know! that the twat washes his brain in bleach every night to destroy the nasty realities of life outside his gilded cage.

SANCTIONS

Should Israel be ostracised – why is there any doubt? Russia and Belaurus are banned by FIFA, why not Israel? Oh USA hosting next World Cup could be why! That and the hold Israel seems to have over Anglo-Saxon politics! Iran has qualified – will the USA grant visas to Iranians? There is also the Eurovision with Ireland, Slovenia, Spain,Iceland and Netherlands having already withdrawn if Israel participate. Germany has said it will withdraw if Israel is banned!

Do sanctions and bans work? Probably not in any meaningful way, but it does send a powerful message to the population that their governments decisions are not welcomed abroad and therefore, neither are they! And whilst on Israel – why did the flag shaggers in London for a mas terbation event have Israeli flags? They are either complete numpties, Islamaphobes or just want to bathe in the bloodshed and gore that Israel has bought down upon Palestinians. Their ideology is rooted in violence, hatred, prejudice and intolerance.

Then we come to Trump – there are saddo’s who want the UK to be taken over by the USA, little boys with dreams of having a gun in an holster making them feel important beyond their pathetic situation, or girls who dream of the powerful male who will kill for them, and keep them safe when they have no ambition themselves. A depressing scenario – but a real one.

Trump visits later – he will be cumming in his pants at the pageantry, to many he is not welcome. However whilst I would morally agree, investments by American companies provide many jobs, even when the drug companies renege on future investments due to NHS objections to overpricing! However if he starts spouting about our democracy and laws he should be given a cold shoulder.

AFFIRMATIVE ACTION

One of the complaints made by the right wing is about affirmative action. They are against the Womens Lib movement – despite the fact that girls do better at school and are less represented in management and in earnings. The RW are stuck in past believing that women a’qoned’ by men and should be subservient to them. The same can be said regarding race –  In September 2024, only two black managers were among the 92 clubs in the top four tiers of English football and one of these was sacked last week! Yet 70% of the premiership were not born in the UK and there is a significant proportion of black players who are both articulate and qualified. Racism and misogyny permeate our society. Demonstrators in London at the weekend were quick to point to the Pakistani grooming gangs without a moments thought of a recent trial where 15 white men were sentenced to upto 15 years in jail.

On the demonstrations – being snobby – how many of the demonstrators could be said to be professionals? Perhaps if they had not treated school as a glorified playtime, and knuckled down to work they could be doing the jobs that we desperately need, doctors, teachers, chefs, social workers, etc. Oh and thaose requiring hard work for little pay – employers find it difficult to employ on minimum wage too! White British born working class students perform lowest at GCSE. Is there a culture of benefit reliance? If so we need to break it – not by humiliation and victimisation, but by paying everyone not a minimum wage, but a living wage. People should not have to live to work. Musk has negotiated a pay deal that ‘could’ make him the first $trillionaire – fucking ridiculous! FTSE100 companies give their directors an above inflation/average pay rise every year – are they really that clever? Certainly not all of them as many well known companies go bust every year.

Musk is a white supremitist from South Africa who has dreamt up a concoction of lies about a white genocide in his homeland.

MORE

things I do not understand! With more than 300 people shot every day in the USA, of whom an average 127 die, why are some Americans so anti- gun controls? I realise that the 400 million weapons owned by Americans will not disappear – but some, like Charlie Kirk was, are against any form of gun control. 47 school shootings left 17 dead and 77 injured. In the past 10 years no state has avoided school shootings. Many of the shootings were unintentional, but that kind of makes it worse?

So my next thought is that society in the USA is still medieval in many ways. In fact it is a very strange country! On one hand, the one depicted on TV and by Holloywood, is a prosperous society much like Western Europe, on the other is poverty – people saddled with medical bills, misogyny is common – women are referred to as being ‘owned’ by their partners, , racism is common – the KKK are still around, often blatenent in their prescence, the infrastructure is crumbling as taxes are cut – private planes do not need bridges, and the US has 15000 for the privileged. Many people have 2 or 3 jobs, life expectancy is lower than Cuba and most ‘developed’ countries. But it is a democracy? -Bollox it is. Each Presidential candidate spends $billions to be elected – richest usually wins! Trump is assuming powers that many dictators could only dream of! he is sending the National Guard into cities and the Kirk killing will see him assuming further powers. The only reason for keeping friends with America is the saying “keep your friends close, but your enemies closer”!

I quoted Voltaire yesterday – I was wrong – I do not defend Kirks nasty putrid views in anyway. I cannot defend the bollox he spouted. I will not mourn him! C***
