WHAT IS IT LIKE BEING A RACIST?

What is it like to be a racist?  This is a question which many should think about!  There are the knuckle dragging, flag shagging idiots.  Do these people really blame their inadequacies on others?  Do they ever look at the people around them in the queue for treatment and wonder why there are so few people from ethnic minorities?  Do they show any realisation that the reason they are unemployed or in a shit job is because they are lazy thick bigots?  I doubt it, and there is little hope for these Morans.

The second group that needs to answer the question is the person in the middle classes who who would be mortified at being called a racist!  But they believe the rhetoric about refugees and people from the ethnic minorities, they secretly (as they would not say it loud) think the changes in society are about migrants rather than changes brought about by social media or austerity.  I would love to ask these people what is it like to feel superior to another human being?  Are you a better person than a doctor, nurse, teacher, vegetable picker in the fields?  Oh, I see, you read the Mail, Express or Telegraph or even the Times, so you have superior knowledge (of course you don’t read the Sun – or just do the crossword!).  So I would ask you – what is it like to be a racist?  You may even have a friend ‘of colour’ but they do not count as they belong to the WI or golf club.  So another question – what is it like to live a life of lies?  A life where you delude yourself that you are not racist whilst it is blatantly obvious that you are, a life where you will believe obvious lies for your own benefit (migrants are taking our homes is an example despite there being over a million empty houses and 1.7 million second homes in the UK).  Do facts annoy you?  They distract from your arguments and beliefs.  

























RACIST –


























RACIST –

OBSESSION

What is it with Americans that they think they are entitled to spread lies and interfere in British politics. The latest is Musk and JDVance talking bollox about the the Henry Novak case – against the wishes of the victims family. They have fucked up their own country, so leave us alone. Not content with falsely claiming that Mayor Khan was introducing sharia law into London, and that the streets of London in particular were not safe, they are trying to incite riots. By the way, there were streets of Brighton and I am sure many other cities that, I avoided after 9pm on weekend nights, but that was just being sensible! The facts regarding 2 tier policing are that the police are 3 times more likely to use force against a black person than a white one! But Farage knuckle draggers and flag shaggers are not likely to be interested in facts – however accurate. All asylum seekers are criminals and male ones rapists! Their ignorance and stupidity is horrifying, as is the MSP in trying to legitimise their claims. And why has Starmer not carried out a threat he made, to limit donations to political parties, especially from abroad – only the foreign owners of the MSP would be against such a move.

WTF – FIFA announce the use of AI to cut abusive messages that teams and individuals are exposed to on social media – the blocking works on most platforms but not Musk’s X! And yet our government cannot do similar – and just block X! We have the technology but still choose not to use it? Fine companies $100 for every abusive comment they publish – they will soon create their own blocking system – even Musk who seems to love money more than anything!

Have a great weekend despite the rain, or even because of the rain – my garden loves it!

WORLD INEQUALITY LAB

A report by this institution suggests/ i would prefer demands ways in which we can address the poly crisis that is pushing the world towards a climate crisis, political extremism and economic and social tension. In a world riven with doomsayers, it comes up with some positive ideas. Let me know which ones you think are a bad idea! Target hours worked per year 1000; Target wage per peron £5000; share of global GDP to be spent on health and education 38%. Paying for this? Well the share of wealth owned by the 0.001% of billionaires would reduce from 6% to 0.05% – enough for them to bathe in caviar still!

Farage, with his millions of ‘gifts’ from crypto billionaires is happy to castigate migrants and minorities and basically anyone who speaks out against the ruling class by manipulating the facts and living a life of luxury. The knuckle draggers and flag shaggers should be rioting against tax evasion, exploitation, misogyny (why would they riot against themselves! Hmmm!),

In this country we could nationalise land, cut rents and everyone would be free from drudgery! The rich landowners would have to pay for their estates and allow public access to land (at presnt this is less than 10% and rivers less than 3%), the we spend on mortgages and rents would go where? Not into the rich investors oh so deep pockets!

RACIST

So Farage claims to have received hundreds of emails and letters from police officers saying they were intimidated by diversity training. As a teacher for over 25 years I did not need training to stop me behaving in a racist manner! The police have come a long way since the Stephen Lawrence case – but every report has revealed that minority groups are not treated fairly – yes there is two-tier policing, just not in the way depicted by the mealy mouthed toad. The police also have elements of misogynistic and homophobic officers. In the Henry Nowak case the police made a tragic error and this should be fully investigated, As should politicians who call for ‘cold rage’ in an attempt to gain political capital and possibly riots. The police have an increasingly difficult job, and are readily criticised for failings that are beyond their control like shoplifting; however they are a bastion against anarchy and the protectors of a civil society.

ANGRY

I am still angry at the violence directed towards police officers at a rent-a-riot perpetrated by Farage and Robinson. Only 2 arrests – the video footage I have seen identifies many people and police cams must show more. Why have Farage and Robinson not been arrested for inciting violence? The court had sentenced the perpetrator to life imprisonment, so it was purely violence against the police with racial overtones.

My rant continues with one against South West Water who have been fined £1.85million over a parasite outbreak in Devon. What is the point of fining them when the fine will be passed onto customers. Apologies are worthless when they continue to disregard public safety – water companies should be nationalised now.

El Niño is expected to return by September with 80% likelihood and a 90% by November. I have yet to hear of any government reacting to UN General Secretary Antonio Guterres warning that “the world must treat it like the urgent climate warning it is”. Politicians across the world have been warned – “unprecedented” and “unique” will not suffice as excuses for inaction. In fact in the UK local councillors who ignore the warnings should be dismissed and possibly prosecuted where their actions are deemed to be negligent (I am thinking of Lincolnshire CC where the flood committee has been disbanded in a false money saving measure).

Israel continues with its ethnic cleansing ing in Lebanon, and the slaughter of children and innocents. It will not end well for Israel, or unfortunately for pro-Palestian jews worldwide – the ignorant do not discriminate!

But a positive to end with – Google have applied to release 32million sterilised mosquitos in the USA. Less pesticides and chemicals would obviously be brilliant, but these things have been going on for years – I used to teach about them! and whilst 32m seems large I would guess it is a tiny proportion of the mosquitos in any region?

COWARDLY LITTLE SHITS

Farage and Robinson spread hatred like an infection disease. With no humanity or humility themselves they wish to infect as many parts of society with their pernicious obscenities. Despite the victims family requesting that his case was explicitly not to target particular communities. Right wing wankers in the states, like little Elon Musk have commented on the case, trying to stir up disharmony – shits all of them and those who were on the streets of Southampton.

EL NINO

Scientists are forecasting a ‘very strong’ El Niño in 2027 based on measurements so far in the Central Pacific Ocean. So far away and whilst it may not have a major impact on the UK it seems likely that it will influene our weather. The Committee for Climate Change has advised the government to prepare for 3 eventualities; heat, flood and water shortages. We have already had water outages in the south east this year and it is not really hot yet and the “heat wave” was just a few days! Hospitals and care homes may find that air conditioning is not an option, but essential. Schools could conduct lessons outside, but with little shade they may need to invest heavily in sun block. How about funding schools to cover playgrounds at a height with a solar panel roof that would provide shade, heat in winter and air con in summer? Tax deductable for local businesses if they also provide work experience. Flooding is likely, and whilst some extreme storm events are inevitable and unavoidable, people in at risk areas, probably at least 5 million homes! should be advised on how to protect their properties and mitigate the damage. Weather forecasting is excellent on a regional basis but small differences occur between juxtapositioned villages! So crying wolf is to be avoided. Storm damage in coastal areas is also likely – warmer temperatures will cause sea level to rise. So the three P’s possible options are Prevention (not generally possible within the present time frame; Protection (possible individually but not possible if widespread) and Prepare?Mitigation (always the last option).

And meanwhile a report suggests that net zero is worth £100bn a year and employs over 300.000 people whose earnings are 11% higher on average than the countrywide average. So fuck of Farage and doomsayers! Reports also suggest that youth unemployment will hit high levels next year – why not offer firms a tax break to employ youngsters to instal solar panels, heat pumps and insulation – the maths is beyond me, but taking the young off benefits, and training them at the same time would seem to be a no brainer?

JEWS

I have a problem – why have they been persecuted through history? Why did not the rich Jews arrange for mercy missions to rescue jews from Nazi Germany? Why is the media so Israel friendly when they are a state which is below North Korea as a pariah state? Is there a Jewish monopoly controlling the worlds finances?

HMMM!

Londons biggest ever political demonstration was 2003 against Tony Blair’s Iraq war, at between 1 and 2 million. It was a surprise to see estimates of Arsenal’s Premier League Champions Parade attracted over a million people who 2-1 were wearing replica shirts at a starting price of £80 a pop! I think this is interesting. The majority of those attending the parade yesterday would not have been fans who attended the emirates or perhaps have ever seen arsenal play live, but they feel a need to have a badge to identify with. I guess many will not identify with politics, or its leaders, they are happy to cast votes for numb skulls as long as they say the right things (they do not expect these views to be enacted anyway). Wearing a scarf or shirt gives a sense of belonging, in a world that has monetised belonging to any club or most activities. No, there is not a contradiction regarding the shirts – £80 for a membership where you are welcome and can identify with the chants and swearing, slag off the referee and opponents, especially Spurs, and glorify a common shared experience.

So is football more important the politics? Membership of all political parties is less than those attending or playing football at any weekend. I doubt any political turnout at a rally to match the turnout for Premiership clubs at a weekend. So my hypothesis is that many people are more interested in their football clubs than in politicans , who always let them down.
