Brexit woes

Do folk realise what this bandied term ‘Brexit’ means to us citizens of Britain?
1 no employment rights, the rights we had prior to EU membership were changed by EU legislation. Until new ones are voted upon and ratified we will have none. All those rights that were won by our forebears and their formation of the trade union movement and ultimately the Labour Party will be gone. Who does that serve? Maybe those that own the hedge funds and companies that own other companies. These people have no loyalty to work forces, just those predator share holders at the top of the food chain.
2 British academic and trade qualifications not recognised outside of the UK.
3 more zero hour contracts and likely relaxation of minimum wage and loss of time directive, meaning longer hours when hours available at less pay with worsening conditions.
4 slackening of Health and Safety regs, in industry (whats left of it) and housing. Yep a winner for us? Don’t think so.
5 no package holidays abroad and weakening pound.
6 no overseas investment in UK business unless to liquidate assets.
7 UK industry has already all but gone to profiteer for the hedge funds and the like. Britain once an industrial and research world leader now is a country of service industry. A third class holiday resort made up of Americanised cafes and food chains. Our biggest employers are supermarkets. This is not sustainable. We have no facility for self sustained business. No manufacturing, no research and development. We only really now export weapons.
8 food shortages. Already food banks are rationing to the poorest in society, running out of donations. Supermarket shelves empty. Packaging containing less but remaining the same size to trick us.
9 remaining British owned companies failing. We already are seeing this on our high streets.
10 lack of imported essentials and commodities such as medicines.
11 reduced skilled labour work force. The Tory failure to invest in education already means we have a lack of skilled workers, add this to their stripping local authorities, health, policing and armed forces budgets and you have an extremely dangerous situation.
12 a return to archaic and feudal barony system of control. Where the wealthy are masters and the poor expendable or worse.

These are just a few of the concerns I have. They are my thoughts. We were as a nation tricked into voting leave by a corrupt government that really only wanted to divert us from their seedy dealings. They never wanted a leave mandate. They had no intention of us voting in that way. Not even the foul creatures pushing us to do so with their lies.

We as a group of nations seem to have lost all sense of morality, we allow these vermin to destroy our lives, and those of our families and friends but continue to forgive and forget.
We get irate at the wrong people because the vile ones control all the press and media.

You are entitled to your own opinions but make you own opinion. Do not just read this and like then read the Express or Sun and like. If you are unsure of something research it, ask folk, ask those responsible.

We cannot let the corruption and immorality continue, we do not own this country, this world, but we are responsible and will be judged as to what happens in our time.

If we allow these fraudsters strip this country bare, we are selling the future quality of life and even lives themselves of our children out.

Can you live with that? I cannot.

Democracy or not?

Ok why I am losing faith in democracy.
1 every chance we have of gaining power the infiltrators within our party sabotage it.
2 the media is pro establishment and uses lies and propaganda to fill the masses heads with their brand of despicable magic
3 the Tories own the companies that count our votes
4 election fraud is investigated (sometimes) then ignored
5 we have a minority government who have bought their power by bribing and allying with extreme right wing terrorists
6 if we accept this country has a democratic process therefore a democratic mandate, we have to accept it represents, speaks and acts for us. This I will never accept.
7 the process we currently have is not representative of the majority and when the incumbent Tory seat seems at risk they change the boundaries to ensure a majority.
8 when this government or even the Blairite Neoliberalist New Labour government decide to murder people through act of war or in the case of our own through attrition, poverty and starvation they do so in our name, and by their definition of democratic process with our acceptance and support. NO not for me they don’t!

Therefore I truly am beginning to think democracy is not the way forward, but what paths are left? Division, disobedience, war or revolution?
I really do not yet know, but if I had to risk my life and freedom for my children to have a future in a fair and moral world, I gladly would. Would you?

Child sexual abusers

Child sexual abuse is not a sexual persuasion. It is not like being gay or heterosexual. I dont care which prat of an expert says so. I was a child protection social worker, senior practitioner and manager for many years all over the UK, I see myself as an expert too! Paedophilia cannot and must not ever be excused or normalised. All abuse, sexual, physical, emotional and neglect has a huge detrimental impact upon kids and often steals their innocence, childhood, and future from them.
So please do not share such twaddle. Sadly if you do it will be a parting of ways. Think who wants you to believe such rubbish? Maybe those abusers that are in positions of power in government, in the press. In the Establishment and yes in the precious Royal Family.

Oppression

Remember folkies Israel has the most sophisticated and effective secret security force in the world, Mossad. So those politicians that cannot be bribed often can be blackmailed. The fact that thousands are being killed matters not to the corrupt.
So before you think that those defending Israel’s actions in Palestine and in particular Gaza right now are voicing their moral support and belief of an oppressed Jewish state, have a think of their true motives. Why on earth would anyone defend the indefensible?
Every cry of ‘Antisemitism’ that is raised because someone criticises Israeli actions in Gaza has to be viewed with scepticism.
If someone is defamatory about others because they are Jewish, then that is racism as it would be if they did the same to anyone from a different race or culture than themselves. But to criticise the murderous expansionist actions of a state, and defend oppression, cruelty and yes murder is not racist, it is morally and ethically right. A nation or in this case state cannot hide from the consequences of its actions because of the historic oppression and mass murder of the incumbent majority religion by other nations. That truly needs to be seen as ‘two wrongs do not make a right’.
The Palestinian/Israeli situation is not simple. Both sides have committed atrocities, Israel has had to be seen as militarily strong since its formal foundation. They have had to defend themselves on more than a few occasions, but they too have been the oppressors, the state was born out of war, it originated in its present form through migration from Europe after the vile holocaust, and the actions of European Nations along with the United States both before and after the Holocaust that National Socialism brought upon those of the Jewish faith and their descendents.
Israel’s modern foundation was not planned and thought out, it was an oppressive land grab by the British with the support of the Americans, who in the end under pressure gave the land to Jewish refugees not because they were being altruistic, nor through any form of kindness but because those refugees armed themselves, and thought the British imperialist forces, along with the resident ‘Arabic’ people to take over the region. That, along with international pressure led to the birth of modern Israel.
This admittedly is still simplistic as I do not have a masters in the subject but, its is my understanding, and am happy to be corrected if a modern history professor wishes to do so.

Israel’s defence of its borders has meant it has had to have a strong military, where National Service and Reserve force membership is a duty of almost every citizen. They are as such taught that killing in the defence of their homeland is right, moral and just. The State has been on a war footing since its modern inception. I for one cannot imagine living under such constant fear, they must see all the nations that border them as potential invaders. This has to have an effect upon the national and individual psyche, being brought up to see every other nationality as a potential enemy. One such effect seems to be a loss of empathy, of humanity towards those folk they see as a threat, for whatever reason. For a human to deliberately kill another and enjoy doing so, as seems to be the case for some IDF (Israeli Defence Force) soldiers, to knowing kill unarmed civilians, under orders or not, to destroy homes, beat and torture other human beings, especially as this was the way your forebears were treated by Hitler’s forces, is not right. It is not moral. It is not defensible.

The actions of Israel against the Palestinians needs to stop or be stopped. We cannot be silenced by the argument or claim that to voice our opposition to murder, torture and cruelty is somehow racist.

I for one am not afraid to oppose Israel’s current genocidal actions, as I would if anyone again behaved like that towards the Jewish peoples. I hate no one due to their faith, their race, colour or culture. I do hate oppression, murder and cruelty. I do hate the corrupt people that support that for personal benefit or because they are being threatened and extorted into doing so.

No politician of a nation should be a member of any group that declares itself to support another nation or state. Especially if said state is involved in the oppressive actions that Israel is currently.

It truly seems that simple to me.

Revolution or democracy?

Every day more corruption and real cruelty becomes more apparent on the part of this vile evil government. Human beings, from our friends and family being pushed into suicide, homelessness, starvation. People losing hope, with no strength left to fight against the horrific actions of those meant to serve us.
If democracy cannot end this then revolution has to be our path.
I will not sit idly by and watch another person die for greed.
So attack Corbyn, attack Labour Members, attack socialism, spout hate, try to divide us, we may lose a few in numbers but you feed our strength, shore up our resolve. We, those of the population that see the wicked actions of the Establishment, the extreme rich and powerful will rise against you, we will fight you and yes in time we will use our justice to destroy you.
You may believe you are our masters, but soon you will answer for your crimes against us, against the population, and against humanity.
Your choice, democracy or ……..

Supporting Fascism and Nazi’s since 1933

This rag promoted Oswald Mosely and his Black Shirts up until the outbreak of WW2. Also invited Hitler to Britain after painting him as a hero, was supportive of Mussolini and even Franco post WW2 until his death.

Do not be fooled, this is not a news paper it is the absolute propaganda arm of the extreme right wing.

This vile publication’s advocacy of Donald Trump and vilification of the awakening of the fairness and humanity that is socialism clearly displays this leopard has not now nor will ever change its spots.

Think twice before purchasing this crap, for it literally is buying into hate.
