Fast Forward into Oblivion

Ken — Wed, 22 May 2013 12:56:03 +0000

Seriously, what’s the point ponders Fiona Melville on Platform 10, a group blog campaigning for a modern liberal Conservative party, otherwise died in the wool Camaroons fully behind the detoxifying the party has undergone since the Cameron group hijacked the party. Fiona is disagreeing with various reports arguing that the modernisers have lost the game [...]

EU Democratic Deficit

Ken — Tue, 21 May 2013 15:15:34 +0000

Peter Millar writing in the Guardian questions the democratic deficit of the EU and compares it it our own democracy But does the EU really have a democratic deficit? And if so, is it any worse than many of its member states? Asks Millar, of course we already know the answer don’t we? It turns [...]

The Asian tsunami the BBC and some other Idiot

Ken — Mon, 20 May 2013 11:59:35 +0000

I am often so flabbergasted at the BBC blatant bias that it takes me a while to wake up, not the case with Eureferendum title â€œBeneath Contemptâ€ which mentions last night â€œNewsnight programme, a report on the UN “Oil for Food” scandal. In what was supposed to be a critical piece, we heard Peter Marshall, [...]

Corporate leaders Letter

Ken — Mon, 20 May 2013 11:59:34 +0000

Corporate leaders argue that “The economic case to stay in the EU is overwhelming.” However they do not actually make the case, they just state that as a fact and we are supposed to believe them? They say the Single Market is worth between ?31bil to (?92bil per year and that we should be fighting [...]

MPs Want More Peanuts

Ken — Mon, 20 May 2013 08:06:53 +0000

When MPs were asked by IPSA how much they thought they should be paid, one in three said they deserved more than ?86,000 a year. It is looking as if they will not get the full amount a ?10,000 increase is thought to be the amount they will be offered for fear of upsetting the [...]

Mad, Swivel-eyed Loons

Ken — Sat, 18 May 2013 09:14:11 +0000

Not just UKIP but now from central office a close ally of Cameron says conservative grass roots are mad, swivel-eyed loons. The offence committed by the conservative associations is they are forcing their MPs to vote against Cameron and that would never do. This brings in to the light a very basic question to whom [...]

EU exit

Ken — Sat, 18 May 2013 07:09:51 +0000

Sir – While the group with which Conservative MEPs align themselves in the European Parliament is important, the more pressing issue surely has to be that roughly two thirds of all laws that take effect in this country come from Brussels, not Westminster. It is very helpful that David Cameron allows backbench Conservative MPs to [...]

EU Foreign Minister

Ken — Sat, 18 May 2013 07:09:50 +0000

Tiscali Europe – Home: “An EU Foreign Minister ‘Lowest common denominator’ or ‘all to play for’” Many feel that the most innovative and radical part of the European Constitutional Treaty is the creation of the position of Foreign Minister of Europe, a position that has already been assigned to Javier Solana, the current High Representative [...]

Big Vanity Projects HS2

Ken — Sat, 18 May 2013 07:09:49 +0000

When a political process is behind a massive government spending project little reality creeps into the equation. No matter how many point out the flaws in the plans they will be ignored because the politicians want their plans to succeed no matter how high the costs. Thus we are faced with at least 33bil being [...]

Advice from the Dark Side

Ken — Fri, 17 May 2013 05:14:47 +0000

It comes to something when the twice censured architect of New Labour and ex EU Commissioner Lord Mandeslebum creeps out from under his slimy rock to tell David Cameron that he should resits the advance of UKIP. Every time the boy makes a further concession to his anti-European backbenchers he is notching up a further [...]

Climate Change Denial

I have not been keeping up with events this is the first time I have heard the term ‘climate change denial’ or linking those who dare to question one particular view on global warming to the Nazi Holocaust denier. This sort of think grabs my attention becasue the USE United States Of Europe deniers always [...]

Can we trust the media to tell the truth?

Ken — Sat, 04 May 2013 10:00:24 +0000

Several Blogs have been investigating some of the media images of the recent Israeli attacks in Lebanon and have come to the conclusion that many of the images are at best stage managed. One Routers photographer has already been dismised for manipulating images and some photographs have been withdrawn because of the questions about their [...]

Great Great Grandfather of Nigel Farage

Ken — Sat, 04 May 2013 10:00:23 +0000

For some reason the Express is going on about the great, great grandfather of Nigel Farage as if it is an important discovery. Yawn so what if he was “allegedly” born in Germany when did the Queens Family immigrate from Germany, our next King is either half Greek or quarter Greek depending on who it [...]

Behind Closed Doors

Ken — Sat, 04 May 2013 09:20:21 +0000

We do not understand why the former Home Secretary should have apparently agreed with other G6 ministers to press forward with the “availability” principle and disregard data protection issues. This is contrary to the decision of the Member States in the Hague Programme, contrary to the advice of independent data protection authorities, inconsistent with what [...]

A Commission of One

Ken — Sat, 04 May 2013 09:20:20 +0000

The longstanding plan to reduce the size of the European Commission has just succeeded beyond all expectations, but not quite as intended. Legally there is now only one Commissioner, José Manuel Barroso, who was recently re-appointed as President according the procedure laid down in the treaties. The five year terms of the other 26 persons [...]

Public Funding of Political Parties

Ken — Sat, 04 May 2013 09:20:19 +0000

The Power Report suggests that each voter should tick a box on their ballot paper to allocate £3 pounds of state money (our taxes) to the party of their choice. Neil Harding comments that if they don’t want the state to give a party any money, they don’t tick any box. This is totally up [...]
