Order, Order!

What is it with politicians? It used to be an old boys club, but now it's just a self-service cash buffet! That House of Lords is no better. While setting our taxes, it seems that most of them have been doing everything possible to avoid paying themselves. Setting up huge nest-eggs in Lichtenstein. Why? Because they're rich obviously, and that's how they intend to stay. It's only a few weeks past that it came to light that UK politicians were claiming all sorts of ridiculous expenses, most of them fabricated, and that just to be safe, they'd destroyed all the associated paperwork. Even better still, on the orders of the man investigating abuse of expenses and who had been exposed doing just that himself. No wonder the MP's were all cheering him when he returned to the Houses of Parliament. He'd done them all a massive favour.

It's not like the old days, when the principal objective was to gain the favour of the King, incriminate your enemies in plots and thus acquire their land and titles for yourself. That sort of treachery was practically admirable, and certainly had to be practiced to perfection by the highest ranking nobles in the land.

The latest bee in my bonnet, and it's been there for a while, is the other recent ongoing betrayal of the nation by our politicians. The decision whether to allow us a referendum on the EU Constitution, now the EU treaty, but almost identical in all ways. Except Gordon Brown merits the change of name enough to deny us the referendum we were promised and on the back of which Labour were re-elected. They lied and they don't care. They rubbed it in our faces by denying us a vote on the issue. The only possible outcome is that we will become a vassal to Germany and France. Why would our government want that? I know why, and I told you almost a year ago. Nothing's changed. Blair and Brown cut a deal, it's so obvious, Brown for PM, Blair for Euro-President. That's why it's essential that Brown blocks a referendum at all costs, he promised Tony, who guaranteed it to the Euro-parliament in return for the supreme leadership. Despicable!

No Change From This Lot!

I've quite a few things to get off my chest today, mainly political I'm afraid, but all hugely significant I can assure you. Firstly, let's talk about the man above. Yesterday he claimed that a nuclear Iran would pose the potential for World War 3. Hmm, really! Well, we all know that a nuclear Iran is some years away, but a nuclear US is here and now, and hasn't Bush been threatening to nuke Iran? Don't all but one of the present Predential candidates for 2008, advocate such an attack? I'll answer for you, yes they do!

What's more, Putin says he'll be very upset by any attack on Iran, as he knows the US only has eyes on the Caspian Sea oil there. Of course he's right! When asked by a reporter about Putin's step-down from President to Prime Minister in order to keep hold of power, being a constitutional violation, Bush's reply was "I was planning something similar myself!" Nothing new there, I said so many moons ago. The legal framework is in place. All that's needed is an major Iranian-backed terrorist attack, elections will be cancelled and that's a toe-hold on the Presidency for life that Dick Cheney and his lackies have had their eyes on all along. Take heed, I'll be happy if I'm wrong!

Back to this country, and yes as predicted, Gordon Brown has provisionally signed the new EU treaty (to be formally ratified in December), which is proven to be 96% the same as the old EU constitution, which he promised us a referendum on, but then lied in saying wasn't the same and that he had our "red lines" covered anyway. All lies, he's a liar, it is the EU constitution, we never got our referendum and the "red lines" will be gone in 5 years. I know they'll be gone, becuase the Germans say so! The real question is; "What's in it for us?" Nothing whatsoever! So, what's in it for Gordon? we might wonder. Maybe he has his eyes on that EU Presidency that was once Blair's pipe-dream. He has no chance though, that's guaranteed to go to a Frank or a German.

Last but not least, seeing we've mentioned Blair, new evidence released concerning MOD scientist, UN weapons inspector and government whistle-blower Dr.Kelly, pretty much proves that he was indeed murdered as we had all concluded anyway. The knife with which he apparently slit his wrists had no fingerprints on it. Independent doctors also claim that the wounds would not have been fatal anyway. Take into account the lack of blood found with his body, and it becomes pretty plain that Dr.Kelly was murdered (by lethal injection?) elsewhere and deposited afterwards at Harrowdown Hill! You thought that poilitics was sordid and murky in the past. Well, it's worse than ever now. We really can't trust the people who hold the reigns of power!

Sovereignty Surrender Imminent!

Don't say I didn't warn you! Many moons ago, in this very blog, I highlighted the inherent dangers of the revived EU Constitution, in the form of the new EU Treaty, due to be signed this week. At that time Tony Blair was still Prime Minister and refused to give the public a referendum, despite being elected on the back of just such a promise. Now, we have Gordon Brown, similarly refusing a referendum, claiming that the treaty is hugely different to the old constitution and that he has opt-outs on key areas anyway. Well, only this week a team of Labour MP's, returned the verdict of their investigation into the treaty documentation. Result, "Dear Gordon, this document is exactly the same as the old treaty!"

Well, of course, Gordon knew that anyhow. He was only stalling for time, and now it's too late. Only last week I read that Brown had only 10 days left in which he could allow a referendum, which is obviously too short a time anyway. As for Gordon's opt-outs, this morning I read that a German Eurocrat warns Brown that he has 5 days to surrender those opt-outs and sign the treaty. Oh dear, Gordon what have you done! Apparently (in a thinly veiled threat) he also said that other EU countries (principally Germany and France here I suspect) copuld not allow one country to destroy the hard work that had gone into this treaty when 25 other countries were in agreement.

Makes you wonder who won the war doesn't it? "What war?", you might ask if you're a German Euro-MP, because yes, they want to forget all about that don't they? They want school textbooks to totally play down the Second World War, portraying it as a European Civil War, as though we were a united Europe before that. Basically they want to brainwash kids into a sense of European as opposed to national identity. Why don't they just burn the old history books in the street like they did the last time? You may think I'm Euro-sceptic, not so, I like parts of Europe, other parts I have no desire to ever visit. My main beef is centralisation. It's going to benefit certain countries more than others and inevitably the result will be a desire for de-centralisation and consequently another European Civil War.
