Human Wrongs

I am updating my blog having learned that the cost of arguing the toss over this persons rights is now up to £800,000 I think that says it all.

So it appears the European Court of Human Rights bods are happy for someone who arrived here in the UK on a forged passport to have his right to stay upheld. Okay it may be short lived but come on he has no right to be here.  He may be guilty of terrorism, he may not but the point is he broke the law coming here. So the end of this story should be get him the fuck home to Jordan now.

Before anyone decides to slate me for being racist think again as the things I loathe most are ignorance and intolerance. So what I have to say here is for the good of this country and it’s people (and not in the ways of the BNP) and I think we should simply hand criminals back to the country they came from. Crime is crime and I am sorry but if you re-settle in another country but you break the law in doing so then what human rights should you have?

Don’t get me wrong I think bodies like the Human Rights organisations do some great work and have their aims and goals set for the right reasons. I do however think that their mandate is allowed to be abused by utter scum who will come up with any reason why they think they should not be deported. Well its about time we stopped standing up for criminals and start looking after the innocent, the victims and those people who deserve to live in this country.

Foot note - this applies to any country and any scum bag criminal protected for all the wrong reasons.

How to confuse!

Why have 2 horses called Neptune in the Grand National. Thats confusing when in the bookies. Guess which one of the two I had?

No not the winning horse, despite having gone to the bookies with it written down I go and select the other one who was 150-1

I just think it should all be much clearer like having numbers, oh yes they do.

Idiots

The dick head who brought the boat race to a stop should in fairness have had his head sliced clean off by an oar or propellers. Unfortunately he will probably just be given a slap on the wrist! God these idiots make me mad.

Speak the lingo

I am sat in a cafe in Brighton and listening (not being nosey) to a group of foreign nationals talking to each other in their own language and i am reminded about people (local to me - by that i mean England) who complain about why foreigners (by that they must be referring to anyone who is not born and bred in England) walk around our country talking in their own language, why don't they speak English if they live here? Well you know what how many of us, if we were to move to a new country, would speak to our friends and family in our new found language? You know the answer to that one.

Students booze

I have just seen a news article (concerning the minimum price for alcohol) and where students are saying booze is part of the process of being at university and that they are being hit again because of it. I don't doubt that drinking is but i also don't condemn boozing. Heres the thing though, if you drank less you might actually have more free cash and therefore not end up in so much debt, which seems to be one of the main gripes about going to Uni these days. So tighten your belts like the rest of us.

Facebook..... grrrr

You know what really surprises me is when companies allow employees to access Facebook (to name but one anti-social site - yes I am aware i just launched my website and blog on Facebook) during office hours. Sorry the reason why we go to work is 'TO GO TO WORK'.

So when you say you have a shit job on shit pay ask yourself the question "Just why is it that I don't seem to be doing as well as that other person"

Guess what? that is my tax resource you are wasting not big business profits.

Okay so the Occupy London protestors were were making a fine stand about the world today and the greed of big corporates. Really?

What I saw was a bunch of people who were in the main probably unemployed, or had brilliant employers who let them have massively extended leave, camped outside of one of the capitals fine old buildings who were eventually evicted this week. Who paid for their eviction? Thats right it was the big bad corporates so well done protestors you really hit them

Kids - How many do you want? How many do we have to pay for?

The world is getting more populated every year, we have more mouths to feed, and the situation is not going to change unless WE (that we is not the Tories, or Labour or the Liberals, Greens etc it is us, the everyday worker) start to do something about it. We are quick to blame the country for not having enough money, but we don't stop and think should we have 3 kids, can we afford 3 kids, we just have them knowing that's the country will support them with child allowances, housing and tax credits all over the place. 

The Children are our future. Someone famous wrote that into a song but they are, at the rate of worldwide growth, potentially one of the biggest problems on the planet. If there are no jobs now (well ones you want to do) and we are coming up with ways to make things cheaper, more efficient, time saving and free of human touch there will be even less next year,

Tax Does not have to be Taxing (I think I may have stolen that tag line)

The problem as I see it is that we all want more money and we don’t want to pay more tax, however we still want all the things we don’t want to pay taxes for so that we have the free cash to spend on the frivolous, we basically want it all but want someone else to pay. No government will win your vote if they go for a tax rise but that same government will get a kicking from you by not funding enough police, nurses, doctors, fire staff, benefits and pensions when in fact that is what we the tax payer are inflicting on ourselves.

We are all living longer which is a huge strain on taxes. I guess we could adopt the Logan’s Run policy on life that would save a few quid long term (that was a film reference for those of you under the age of 40). You see its a balancing act you can have it now or later or both we just need to decide whats important in our lives. If there are less benefits going out now or more taxes paid now then when we are older there should be a comfortable end to our

Your pocket my pocket our pockets

If you think that the world is in a mess think about your own credit card balance, the overdraft you have, the parts of your home that need a fix up, then look at the PS3, Wii, IPhone, fast car and think about where they came from and what you could have done better with that money. When you realise your money has not gone as far as you want then you can cut back, make a budget, or maybe go into further debt in the hope you will one day come out the other side smiling. Now give yourself the job of doing this for the country and you may then perhaps realise its never going to be easy keeping all those people happy because whether we as a country go further into debt, cut back, or make a budget there will always be something or someone that has to end up with less than what they want.  

There are of course those who are genuinely needy and whom we have to support, in the same way you will make sure you can eat or heat. What happens when everyone says they are needy and we must have everything to help everyone? What tends happen is, rather then stop eating and heating, you find a way to keep ‘some of
