UK 'was inappropriately involved in rendition'

UK 'was inappropriately involved in rendition' Meh. Fuck 'em. The people who are rendered abroad are not nice people. They are not innocent people who live clean lives of good and kindness...They're usually dodgy fuckers who are being watched by 'top men...Top...Men.' So the very fact they're taken abroad and cohereced to talk about the bad things they're up to pleases me.

Failing France

So, as it turns out, apparently you can't solve a debt crisis by increasing taxes and spending more. Who'd have thought it!

But you lot are still going to vote Labour aren't you because, free money for everybody...Boo to Capitalism and down with da' man etc.
I'm going to continue to be a champagne socialist and use my celebrity status to keep people voting left....But I'm not actually going to share my wealth at all. In the real world, we call that 'doing a bono'.
Oh and look, the view from the hill this morning, showing mammatus clouds. It rained a lot.

Did I ever tell you I hate HR trainers?

I am a comic, an ex-teacher, an ex military instructor...And I am awesome at working a room and getting people to learn. There are reams of feedback forms that tell me I am a God of educating people.

But, I cannot secure a job as a HR trainer without a CIPD qualification. I don't want one. I really don't because it seems like a shit needless qualification. You can either educate a room, or you can't...It doesn't matter whether you have a piece of paper or not. This is why I am not upset at the governments plans to allow people to teach without a BEd or PGCE. Those bits of paper will say you deliver material to certain standards, but all I found my PGCE did was limit me and stifle my creativity because some bitch thought I should do it her way. Luckily other people let me do it my way and so I was happy. Then I entered the system again and some Dick said I had to do it his way, and I told school teaching to go fuck itself.

But I am a God of educating people. I am not a God of paperwork, homework, bullshit and external forces. Free the teacher, free the school. Let somebody teach as they can teach, and the passion will inspire the room. If they can't do it, the class will soon tell them. Kids are assholes and will expose weakness. It is another debate how discipline will allow good educators to thrive because they want to educate and shouldn't have to be social workers and make up for piss poor parenting. Consistenly bad kids should be broken by Drill Sgts. And screw your opinion if you disagree. You're wrong as always. Deal with it and move on.

Here is a simple way of assessing teaching.
1) Is learning taking place?
2) Is the learning appropriate?
3) Is the learning fun?

That's it. No need for BEd, PGCE, CIPD, OFSTED or any other piece of shit paperwork or pencil pushing idiot to sit in pulling a face. These 3 points will cover all eventualities.

Back to slagging HR trainers with their CIPD crap. The CIPD is a racket, you have to have one...So pay us. No. I don't have to have one. Go out of business!

HR trainers really are shit...I guess the CIPD is where you get your personality removed and replaced with flipchart pens and shitty team games. Did I tell you I loathe HR trainers with a passion? Several times.

This is an example of the kind of shit I have seen in a HR lead training session by some dull individual.
I have seen a Chaka moment in real life and this was pretty much my reaction to it. I will sit out of your activities, I have no shame and find anything I dislike to be not worth bothering with. A trainer made the mistake of trying to make me feel guilty, so I said "I'll be back in half an hour when you've got over this childish crap," then went off to chat to the receptionist for a while, and walked back in with a scotch egg and a coffee when she was working the flipchart paper. "I'm going to sit back and let you do some work now, fill in some shit on the flipchart paper."....I'd rather not.

Screw you NIMBYS

I hate NIMBYs, I utterly loathe them.

I loathe them and their lies, their deceit, their short sighted approach to the world, and their selfish nature. They are costing people jobs and lives, and we should simply stop listening to the useless sods.

That (IMHO) useless Milliband has motioned that that useless Balls is going to make a decision about HS2 if they get elected. If you elect them, you really have fallen for the "free money for everybody," bollocks that Labour always throw around...And again, for that you must die you simpleton.

Right now, the West Coast, Midland and East Coast Mainlines are either full or approaching capacity. The UK has seen year on year increases in the demand for rail. We need more room for freight, and we need more room for commuters. We cannot accommodate them on the Victorian network we have now. No amount of expansion will work, because we have tried that and it failed. I could link yards of evidence, I could link models showing how trains running at the same speed = increased capacity. I could link case studies of redevelopment from 'less developed' countries than us that show an improved economy in cities that have been connected to High Speed Rail. But I won't. It's too much effort to do, in the knowledge that like religious zealots, antis will not read it. They have already formed their own pathetic and false conclusion that HS2 is about getting rich businessmen to London 20 minutes quicker...Or is about friends of the Tories getting massive construction contracts.

Antis, NIMBYS call them what you will, I am sick of them and so will simply call them deluded thick fools with heads filled with utter bullcrap who are selfishly denying progress to future generations. I loathe them for this.

Years of disruption on the WCML lead to a shed load of cash out the door, and very little improvement in capacity because slow freight, stopping commuters and high speed intercity trains simply do not mix. Right that's your lot. Time to ladle on the abuse some more.

Antis like to point out that the pro' campaigners are worried, as though being worried implies you've lost the debate. Yes we worry...We worry about the antis because hearts rule heads in many cases. Human beings are very often ill informed, and listen to those who shout the loudest, rather than those who put forward a factually robust case that is outlined in a calm and rational manner.

HS2 is a good thing for the nation, there is no doubt about that. The fact that there are people who would be uncomfortable about this statement demonstrates instantly that human beings listen to the shouts over the logic.

Antis stand in the way of progress. They limit the opportunities and life choices of future generations, and yet award themselves the right to be smug about their actions. They think they are fighting an evil, and yet cling to bullcrap arguments like "It's easier to widen the WCML!" or "It will cost £80bn!" They haven't got a clue, and yet their ignorance, selfishness and closed thinking could cost this country billions in investment, jobs, lives... 

The latter point is contentious but suicide often occurs in young males because they feel they have no prospects and thus feel useless. Screwing the Norths chances of connecting to the jobs and prospects created by the global marketplace that is London (and remember, improving commuter services into London, freight links across the UK etc) because of your 'wrong' ideology, is insulting and dangerous.

I loathe anti's. I have loathed them ever since I saw Swampys smug face on HIGNFY.

Get some facts down you and I might listen. Cling to selfish ignorance, and you deserve only ridicule.

"But...but...but...it's my opinion!"

Yes, and your opinion is dogturd. Get over it and move on. Or just die already, I'm sick of hearing your wrong opinions and your wrong lives offend me.

If you fancy putting a spoke in the works of NIMBY pricks, do what I do. You know all these NIMBY prick websites have a little share button that lets you tell the department of transport how you feel. Well click on it, and then point out that NIMBY pricks need gassing.

Oh Noes time to ban buses unless they are packed with cotton wool.

Woman falls off bus.

So...This is where society leaves us? We're supposed to sympathise with somebody who falls over, and demand that the state step in to protect us from our own inability to take responsibility for our own actions.

Inb4 tedious debate where somebody smugly points out how wearing harnesses on a worksite saves lives etc, and insinuates that I'd like to return to a 1950s era where flat caps and cigarettes will save you from industrial accidents. PPE and safety legislation is wonderful in the working environment.

In this situation, somebody who has spent their life wrapped in cotton wool, took a risk and didn't apply too much thought to the outcome. Natural selection in action. I couldn't care less. Why should we change the rules to suit the lowest common denominator?

"Somebody do something...I made a mistake..." I get the same reaction when I hear parents who have set up a pressure group to legislate about everything because their kids died hanging from Venetian blind cords for example. "Shame for you...But stop trying to change the law to suit."

I have an idea. How about everybody in the world lives inside some sort of nourishing fluid filled shock resistant pod. Robots feed us a nutritionally balanced diet and remove our waste products, and we all have a spanking good time watching TV in our minds.

Sat Nav Idiots


Oft' times I read about idiots who blindly follow their sat-nav into a river...Or get wedged in a street...or kill somebody.

Sat-nav's should have options to tailor them to your vehicle e.g. Type in the dimensions and weights, even turning circle if known, and it will check this against it's tables. Rather like the FMC in aviation.

I'm sure they have basics already (don't know, never needed to use them) such as HGV or Bus mode? If not, why not?

Perhaps even include a 2 minute chat in driving lessons that covers the main point.

"A sat nav will get you to a destination, but it will not think for you. If the road looks unsuitable, the sat nav will still point you at your destination if you ignore it and keep on the wide, tarmac road through the village...not the 2 foot wide cobbled path that leads down a rollercoaster hill to an antiques market at the bottom."

But what always bothers me about these kinds of stories is the simple fact that so many human beings lack critical thinking. At what point do you look at what the sat-nav is telling you and think "Hmmmm, that street looks like it's made of water. I think I'll go around." or "Hmmmm that road is about 4 pedestrians wide and blocked with tables and chairs, and sandwich boards. Perhaps the company who provides the mapping data would benefit from a correction email?" or "Hmmm watching the road is better than watching a 6 inch screen and ploughing into a cyclist." I wouldn't trust these people with cars if they lack the ability to question environmental inputs and make the correct decisions.

I don't get it. I always think "Sod that!" and go around if the road looks dodgy. I also use street-view and satellite maps to get an impression of my destination so I am familiar with the difficult bits at the end. Saves so much stress and worry.

Simple Arguments for Simple People

This should be the slogan for the Labour Party.

They promise the Earth, the easy life, the better times. They never say how they'll pay for it, only dish out some vague notion of taxing the rich and big business and everybody seems to fall for it.

They did such an amazing job last time that I'll believe them. Idiots. Cozying up to business and putting their snouts in the tough was all they did, not to mention spending more money than the country earned whilst times were good, and saying they'd cured boom and bust. FFS.

The Tories are hateful, they cut, they chop, they stay at the top...I lost my job because of their policies. A well paid job with prospects it was too, and I'm about £6kpa away from where I was even now...And about £20kpa away from where I would be. This is the amount that Bale pays for toilet paper I am sure, but it means a lot to me and my pension etc. Do I blame the Tories? Nope. Somebody has to pay for the mess, and I'd rather take a short sharp kick in the ass, than years of being punched in the bollocks by Labour policies.

The arrogance of Labour is to make our grandchildren pay for our largesse, whilst still claiming they're doing a good job because "Schools and Hospitals *cough on credit cough* man."

Meanwhile, the beeb and liberal media lap it up.

Ho hum

Not updated this in a while.

Since nobody reads it and I'm working my nuts off, it's hardly the end of the world but...I am compelled to write today because of this example of selfish idiocy.

If we dropped the bomb tomorrow, I wouldn't give that much of a toss. We'd probably put an end to many self centered people who cannot think beyond the nose on their face.

Runcorn's Windmill Hill Nursery girl aged 2 walked off

So you might think I'm on the side of the parents etc, but I'm not. I walked home from school once aged ridiculously young. Mum was embarrassed and took me straight back. I just thought "Sod this! School is shite. I'm off home where I can do things I want to do."

Nothing wrong with this mindset. Anybody in senior management positions does this all the time and gets THE FUCK away with it. "I'm working from home today!" Lazy fucker for X times the money I am on.

I digress.

My ire was raised because of this bit from the above article.

Louise's father John, said it was a "shocking ordeal" and called for sackings.

Fuck you John. That's people's jobs you're talking about. Your daughter isn't dead, she's fine, nothing happened. People make mistakes and shit happens. To call for a sacking in this economic climate tells me that you are a selfish arse. It is believed a workman left a door open. Accident right there. Sometimes accidents kill people, sometimes they don't. If there is no malicious intent then leave people be, I'm sure they feel guilty enough already.

I really hate this mentality that we see in the western world today.

"wah wah wah, something nearly happened, I want somebody sacked!" Sack yourself and see what a difference that makes to your life.

Since we're no longer being threatened by wild animals, or fighting for our food, we whine about unimportant shit.

Complete your profile. The window to your soul.

Complete your profile. 1/2 Give us all the marketing information we need to fill your every waking hour with inducements to buy shit you don't nee.
Come on tell us...Which city do you live in? So we can drop advertisements from your local curry house into your side bar. So we can sell your information onto shit hawks and loans companies.
Tell us everything about your life, every film, every TV show, every book...so we can focus in on the core of your being and recommend something you might not have thought of yet...Naturally for your benefit. You didn't know you needed 'that' book by 'that' author who is sort of like something you've read before. We know it is, because every other mug on the planet has told us so, via their own feedback and profiles.
F**k you world, f**k you facebook, f**k your business model. Plus all those millions of others have lost the ability to think and make their own rational choices, f**k them as well.

Legal aid cuts 'will let UK abuse abroad go unpunished'

Or alternatively.

90 leading barristers aim to keep milk and honey flowing into their vast coffers by painting their actions as a social crusade. 

Sunday 12 May 2013

G7 agree to target tax avoidance.

G7 agree to target tax avoidance. Brilliant. This is the only way to tax the rich...Chase them around the globe, blocking each and every stone they try to hide their purloined gold under.

Until the whole world agrees to target this issue, there can never be the socialist utopia of shared wealth and a safety net for all. Essentially, whenever my more liberal friends attempt to paint me as some kind of evil demonic figure because I don't nod and agree with them and say "Ummm, yeah yeah yeah!" to each and every point about throwing money at the economy and giving the poor £60kpa to sit on their asses etc...Every time they do this, I always ask "Who will pay for it? Your glorious plans?"

Their stock answer being the rich, and big corporations. Well yes, I agree they should pay their dues, but they are already charged a higher rate of tax...They merely hide lots of their wealth in order to pay nothing or less tax than they otherwise would. Meaning, they can't fund this utopia...until the world closes loopholes. Why? Because if we close the loopholes here and force big business to pay, they will piss off elsewhere in order to save money, taking their wealth with them and abandoning us as a trading nation, hence we cannot go it alone...Much as my liberal friends want to. To do so will flush the whole system down the toilet, and then we couldn't afford a sausage let alone healthcare.

Stop Filming Gigs you fools

This BBC article expertly espouses that patience with the modern way of attending a gig and filming it on your smartphone, has worn thin. 

Holding a phone aloft or sitting on your boyfriend's shoulders - both show a total lack of respect to those around you who have paid high prices to watch a live show. This attitude is far too common in modern day society: playing music on a bus, using a mobile in a quiet zone on a train, sending and receiving texts during a theatrical performance. It's the "me, me" selfish society we now live in.

Indeed, I despise these people who think nothing of imposing their presence upon the rest of us, and would advocate a sense of citizen justice. Haul the girl onto the floor, and when the boyfriend attempts to defend her, he is kicked to the deck by a mob...Both are then handed an A4 sheet of paper, upon which is written their transgressions.

Snatch and then over-arm throw the smart throw into the crowd if one is suddenly thrust into your line of sight. "You lost your phone because you're a selfish prick!" Any attempts to start a fight will be snuffed out by the mob kicking the smart phone transgressor to the floor. Repeat A4 sheet. Somebody ruining the quiet zone on a train, gather a crowd and then choke that person with a tie until they pass out.

Sending a text during a performance, your phone will be snapped in two in front of you. Harsh? Yes. But ask yourself this question...Would you fall foul of my system? If so, then you're an idiot who lacks self awareness and respect for others and you deserve a damned good kicking.

Margaret Thatcher.

She was a polarising figure, that much is evident! 

Thing is, polarising figure means that they're loved and hated in equal measure...Surely this is a good thing? It means there is a natural divide to vote for, not like today where identikit men in suits battle over the same turf because they want everybody to love them equally.

Walking the centre ground is asinine and boring simply because by walking the centre ground, you offend both sides of the political divide equally, and hence doom your country to endless coalition and ineffective governance.

Remember this, for all people seemed to hate Thatcher, she won three elections. Cue various theories as to why this is, usually citing the Falklands and Kinnocks meltdown speech. Nobody states "She won because of the superior number of votes her party received." I also think, people remembered this.

This is the End


North Korea, home of the lard assed man child in charge of a twitchy hated nation, will attempt to nuke nuke the USA.



I predict a bit of a cluster-fuck will ensue.

Most other countries will stand their ground, agog, for 24 hours to work out what exactly is happening and digest the rolling news footage of unimaginable carnage and then Israel will take the opportunity to attack Iran/Syria.

China and Russia who were silent whilst North Korea received the justice due its leaders, but not the people (although innocent people always die in war, sadly), will defend Iran and Syria

The war will spread, the USA will demand a cessation to hostilities, China and Russia will point to the crater that is North Korea, Iran and Syria and simply say they're stopping the rot. The USA will not take this insult well, nor will NATO.

WWIII...or something like that.


Well

This whole cluster-fuck will take place in slow motion, and I will sit and watch the mushrooms growing from a hilltop...Whilst Massive Attack's Teardrop surrounds me until oblivion.

Ratings cut humiliating, says Labour

Well they would wouldn't they? The bunch of bellends.

Inheriting a stable economy, gaining an unfounded reputation as an Iron Chancellor, and then turning on the borrowed money taps in about 1999. Spending more than we earned until the wheels fell off the wagon in 2008, and then thinking that spending yet more money would be a great idea to save everything. "Hey, let's throw good money after bad, that'll work!" Cue total loss of face, but since the Tory party have always been the party that tries to live within our means, everybody hates them to a greater or lesser extent. We want the fun party back, the party that pisses money at every needy mouth in order to buy votes. Yey.

So this was going to be a rant about ratings agencies, and what a bunch of pricks they are...Playing a self fulfilling game must be so easy, just ask George Soros. Does what he wants, and since every swinging dick stock broker watches him and follows him, he can set the trends every-time. Gee, wonder how he does it? You fucking idiots. One day, ignore him and take him to the cleaners. Anyway, ratings agencies. Vote me, and I'd send black clad special forces guys to abduct all the MDs and senior decision makers, and just bury them in a ditch somewhere after hours of spectacularly excruciating torture. Screw my country over would you? Force the honest taxpayers to pick up the bill? Suffer.

What do you do with a drunken sailor?

"Figures obtained by the BBC show that there have been more than 300 disciplinary incidents in the past three years on the navy's 13 submarines, including 42 cases of misconduct or unfitness through alcohol or drugs." Now. I know why the BBC is doing this. Some wanky arsed little journalist type, who is anti-military and probably heavily left-wing, thinks the public should not vote for replacing Trident. Hence, this is a little dig, aimed at showing that the Navy is incompetent and/or incapable of handling weapons of such destructive force as the nuke.


 The reasons to keep the nuke are simple.
  •  The UK is no longer an imperial power. 
  • The world is becoming increasingly unstable. 
  • We will be fighting over resources soon enough. 
  • Iran, N. Korea would have no qualms about first strike...Can't let those zealots take all. 
  • The Iranian government is run by a death cult that prefers the afterlife to life. 
  • We would have no say in global affairs without the biggest stick of all in our back pocket.


 I do know that there are liberals out there who think we'd carry on as normal without the nuke, but we wouldn't. No we wouldn't. Far more goes on behind the scenes than you'd ever realise. So, this piece intends to highlight that the navy is bad m-kay. Well, prepare your anus journalist. These figures you have obtained demonstrate to me that the system works. Drunken people are apprehended and punished appropriately, you have provided a list of figures that prove this. End of discussion. Learn more.

The Great Horsemeat Scandal

When I was a child, I used to eat horse meat. Shock, horror, you animal...How dare you eat the lovely Gee-gees.

Know what? They taste fabulous, horse meat frikadellen from a German deli, mmm-mmm. At least twice a month, mum would have horsey frikadellen in the carrier bags, or we'd go get some from the schnelly. Plenty of iron, an intense 'meaty' flavour like you have added stock cubes to your ground beef, nothing wrong with it at all.

So, to arise every morning and complete my morning ritual with Susanna Reid and Sally Nugent teasing me in short skirts, and find that people are screaming blue murder about horse meat being in their value mince...Well, fuck. What is the problem people? Why does 'health' keep getting bandied around? horse meat isn't crawling with disease you know, just because it is horse. Why do obese northern mothers (my mum is northern and not obese) keep appearing on my screen, with their snot nosed little turdy children alongside them, mouths ragged and raw from chowing down on high sugar and acidic artificial confectionery; demanding that the government think of the children and pillory some slaughterhouse manager... Or give them more free money.

Dear Mr. Government. My little Jayden (a shit modern name, usually coupled to a poorly behaved specimen of troublesome humanity, fit only for the salt mines) ate some horses meat at school. Give me free monies or I will sue you. The nice man in the shiny suit says I can put a case on you.

FUCK OFF you idiots. Why the objection to eating horse? Granted the deception could be a trifle irritating, like if you purchase a phone online, and the arse-goblin in some feckless third world shithole sends you a photograph of a phone...I would go to war over that. I would wipe out your country with nuclear fire just to ensure I got you for the insult, you turd...Anyway where was I? Oh yes. The deception can be annoying. You purchase cheap beef mince, and 90% of it is horse. But unless somebody tells you, do you really know the difference? Unless the meat smells off, and/or has things wriggling about in it, it is very unlikely to do you harm. If anything, horse meat is likely to be better for you, containing less fats and more minerals/vitamins. But no need to keep off over a deception, no need to call it a scandal. Just say "oh you, silly sods, here's a fine and next time label your product!" Don't put the firm out of business, because those are people's jobs at the end of the day...Fine the owner his sodding great car or house.

Plus, would it hurt the people of the UK to broaden their palette a little? In a time of increasing competition for food and resources, declaring whole swathes of the animal kingdom as 'off menu' because historically we don't eat that thing over there, we eat them things over there, just seems a little odd. You know my theory on the matter, there are too many people and yes I am qualified to decide who lives and dies. You need only observe the High Street on a Friday night, and perhaps watch driving behaviour in any town centre around Christmas. So yes, unless we start prohibiting breeding and culling the feckless thick fucks, pretty soon we shall start adding cats and dogs to the menu because Earth cannot support all of us indefinitely.

Bring on the horse meat, tasty, lean, cheap.

HS2 Again

So, the government has published the first details of the northern extension of HS2, and the predictable arsehole NIMBYs are already out trying to overturn something they know nothing about.

Now, the BBC as an unbiased and balanced broadcaster, is duty bound to present both sides of the fence...However, this approach means that no nothing idiots and their baseless ideas are given an air of credibility because they have been on the BBC. What should happen is, if your point of view differs, but is factually incorrect and/or mislead, you should be laughed off of the BBC...And shot (under my regime).

Let us have a look at the anti-HS2 bullshit claims postulated by these absolute morons. Now, I know people are supposed to have reasoned debate and agree to disagree, but I disagree with that sentiment. I feel that by allowing everybody believe their opinion is of equal weight and merit, you encourage dickheads to open their mouth and cost the taxpayer billions in wasted effort and legal battles. You also have to listen to these people without having the right to demand they be vanned into the fens and disposed of in a ditch. I digress...time to direct my disbelief and venom at the airheads of Stop HS2 et al.

Many of these *cough* bullshit *cough* facts can be viewed here. 

We operate a hundred+ year old railway network, that has been botched and cobbled together...It works, but is approaching capacity. Apparently, you can improve the network today for £2bn...Really? Do you remember the recent upgrade of the WCML that failed to deliver, and disrupted travel for about 10 years? Imagine this happening again....Go on...Years of disruption, service stoppages, weekend possessions  a bodge job, a half measure. HS2 would be a new build, allowing the WCML to run freely in the interim construction period. Plus there would be a new diversion route for maintenance, redundancy in the network is always good...Witness what happens when somebody tops themselves on the line, and everybody is stuck in London for hours. With two routes, duplicating the ECML and WCML, you're sorted for alternatives.

What 'stop HS2' (no caps, fuck 'em) fail to realise when they come out with their tired old socialist shit about the line only benefiting businessmen etc, is that building HS2 frees up oodles of space on the WCML (and to a lesser extent the MML and ECML) to provide for slower freight and stopping passenger services. These will benefit local communities AND take trucks off of the motorways, an environmental benefit surely since slow moving freight is a pain in the ass on the motorways what with trucks elephant racing. The DfT's rail package 2 does not deliver all the benefits of HS2...It just doesn't, stop deluding yourselves.

The benefits will also flow to London, according to stop HS2...Really? Ever heard of the suburbs? They are large areas of land that were covered in houses and shops (I'll talk to you like an idiot if you think like one), mainly in the 30s, as a result in the growth  of rapid transport connecting those places to London. Compare Watford in the 30s with Watford today (there are numerous other examples)...You'll find that Watford is much bigger and more prosperous than it was in the 30s because its population can travel into London for work. If people choose to live in Birmingham and commute to London then great, those people who live in Birmingham will have more pennies in their pocket to spend IN Birmingham, hence leading to a growth in the commercial and services sector that provide for those people. There will be benefit. Likewise connecting cities to Birmingham will open further opportunities for the regional hinterland to trade together...Not to mention the increased ability to pump railfreight back and forth down the traditional network.

It is pointed out that more people will travel if HS2 is built = bad for the environment m'kay...You know what? Fuck you. People need to travel to work, in order to grow and prosper...If you're a comfortably well off middle class NIMBY who has achieved a certain level of success in your life, then who are you to deny millions of other people the chance to climb the ladder like you have. Fuck you you selfish dicks. I hope you choke in your retirement and stop draining the tax pot for the rest of us.

NIMBYs also like to point to HS1 as an example of a failed project...Any system can be considered a failure if only part of it is built. HS1 will become more valuable once plumbed into Crossrail, HS2, (potential CR2 and HS3)...I am reminded of how anti-roads dickbags fuck up road improvement schemes, and then use the resultant over budget half measure as 'proof' that road building is flawed and expensive. It is, if you sabotage it...If you bump the cost up by using the tactics published in your road protest handbook, to enforce expensive judicial reviews (lots of money for you NIMBY dickbags parents i.e. lawyers) and then make it miss its planning window so the work has to be repeated and incorporate new standards at extra cost to the taxpayer etc then of course it will be seen as a waste of money. The cost is the fault of the protesters  not the engineers and professionals or government.

Frankly, I am sick of interest groups holding the taxpayer to ransom. Interest groups that exploit the inability of people who are 'pro' something to get off their arse and protest 'for' something. It's human nature to scream and shout against something, but do nothing if you support something. Dickbag protestors shouldn't take this silence as support, because it isn't. I imagine millions of people are chuffed to see the government getting of their backsides and planning long term. In cohorts with the electric spine and the Great Western Mainline being improved etc, I am happy to see progress...And I dislike people who intend to fuck it up on the basis of half truths and prejudice.

You are welcome to disagree, but I'll just 'know' you are a prick if you do, and not worth my energy. You are not entitled to your opinion you arse goblin.

Where do you begin with these arseholes?

Argentina, a country stolen from a native population by European invaders...But since that happened a long time ago, it has become a moot point and it is generally accepted that Argentina has the right to self determination. A chance to vote in its own corrupt and idiotic rulers, who fleece the crap out of the place, bring the economy to its knees and generally squander the future of the population (rather like the UK then, oh ho ho ho).

But what does a plastic faced near transexual (IMHO), do when the country she is running is falling apart at the seams, why she looks for a diversion and points to some islands on the map nearby that she thinks should belong to her country. "If I scream and shout and demand these islands and complain and bitch, people will not pay attention to how I am skull-fucking the national exchequer!" Just like in 1982, when times is hard, rattle the sabre. I know there is a whole generation of people in the UK who hate Thatcher and think the Falklands war of '82 was wrong because we sank a ship and killed some people and blah blah blah. But those people are historically ignorant fuckwits and are welcome to comment, I'll just mock them with facts and abuse in equal measure because I have emotions approaching hatred for those kind of people. Weak people who like to whip themselves in a hair shirt to show how awesome and pious they are...In the absence of having a religious cause to follow, because they're secular (like me, but I am scientifically secular and seek no cause), they award themselves their own type of self and personal hatred to follow.......I'll leave it there, but there are whole essays to compile about self hating westerners, and the reasons behind their self imposed misery.

Anyway, I digress as usual. Oh yes...So Argentina then. It's going tits up, and is hence pestering the UK with its bullshit cause again. Give us back some land that is nearby and we think should be ours...And this isn't because there is potentially lots of oil around it. Kirchner wrote a letter to the UN and David Cameron, demanding that the UK talk to her re: sovereignty of the Falklands, and craftily published her letter in the Guardian and the Independent...The former paper is an uber leftie rag that is failing, read by the aforementioned self hating westerner types, the latter hides its left leaning nature behind the cloak of being independent. Being published in those papers gave her a chance of being heard by the flagilists who read them, the rest of us just point and laugh and mention that:
  • The Kelpers (Falkland Islands Population) have lived there since before Argentina gained independence from Spain.
  • Spain recognises the Falklands as British Territory.
  •  Argentina is a product of Colonialism, much of it was also stolen from Peru.
  • Argentina only exists because the Pope thought he had the right to divvy the globe up.
  • The UN dictates that everyone has the right to self-determination.
  • The Kelpers choose to be British.
  • Argentina invaded in 1982 and took the islands by force.
  • The captain of the Belgrano has publicly stated that the UK was well within its rights to sink it.
  • Argentina has been pushing its claim again, ever since oil was found.

Using Kirchner's argument, I propose that we claim big chunks of France for the UK, because they expelled us way back in history, and it's only 20 odd miles away at its closest. The Falklands are about 500km (300+ miles) away from Argentina, so since France is only 20 something away from the UK, surely that means we have a HUGE right to claim it then.

Oh and, get a load of this BBC Linky. The Have your Say comments are laughable, and populated by historically ignorant tossbags.

Some quotes, that I have annotated with my insightful and well argued responses...

"The way to defuse this is by making the Falklands as international and multi cultural as possible, so that all sorts of folk from all corners of the world can live and work there.

Digging in & flag waving is precisely wrong thing to do. That is playing the Argentine game. National boundaries are falling away everywhere. Increase Falklands links with Chile & Brazil. Only sensible way to carry on" My response. Oh fuck off.

"It is an island which is 8000 miles from the UK.

Give the Malvinas back, we don't want another war." My response. Oh fuck off.

"$6 Trillion, is the value of the 60 Bn barrels of crude under Falkland Islands.

Let's face it, the UK is going to do everything it can to keep six trillion dollars even if that means sending marmite to the islands every second week.

That will ensure they vote the right way at the election !! My response. Oh fuck off.

You get the point. Come the revolution, those tossbags will be in the soil quick sharp ;-)
