The English Defence League (EDL) held a “static protest” in Bradford yesterday which was typically marred by violence. The original plan was for the EDL to hold a march through Bradford but the Chief Constable of West Yorkshire Police, Sir Norman Bettison, successfully got the Home Secretary, Theresa May, to ban any protest marches in [...]

The BBC News website has a non-story about speeding statistics at the site of two switched-off speed cameras in Oxfordshire. Oxfordshire County Council couldn’t afford to keep the speed cameras going after the British government withdrew central funding for speed cameras in England so they turned them off but Thames Valley Safer Road Partnership – [...]

Stoke-on-Trent City Council has produced an 11-page Ramadan guide for schools which advises them to cancel swimming lessons and sex education for all pupils during the month. The council suggests swimming lessons should be cancelled in case muslim children accidentally swallow water when they’re supposed to be fasting rather than the more reasonable suggestion that [...]

The cost of the Pope’s visit to England and Scotland is going up to £12m, not including the as-yet unspecified cost of policing. Some of the cost is being paid by the Catholic church but the rest is being stumped up by the British government out of English taxes. The country is broke, England is [...]

So one of the first acts of our new EU regional administrators is to introduce fixed term parliaments. Any alliance whose purpose is not the intention to wage war is senseless and useless I support fixed term parliaments – I even have a button for the campaign for fixed term parliaments in the sidebar of this [...]

Via Guido, it appears that Greenpeace are planning to branch out into eco-terrorism with this threat to anyone that actively opposes their eco-fascism: If you’re one of those who have spent their lives undermining progressive climate legislation, bankrolling junk science, fueling spurious debates around false solutions, and cattle-prodding democratically-elected governments into submission, then hear this: [...]

The political system is rotten to the core and the coming election isn’t going to provide the purge we need to put it right. An investigation by the BBC has found 400 occasions where MPs have broken their own rules on declaring gifts of travel and hospitality.  Four hundred breaches by just 22 MPs, all [...]

The Tory Speaker, John Bercow, has announced his intention to introduce legally binding quotas for “diversity” of candidates for political parties. Under the rules, parties will be forced to have all black (not the rugby team), all asian, all women, etc. candidate lists to meet the quotas the fake-diversity obsessed British government forces on them. [...]

Hundreds of eco-terrorists and assorted left wing fruitcakes and swivel-eyed loons have had to be beaten back by police in Copenhagen after they tried to break through a perimeter fence designed to keep the unwashed nutters away from the terribly important politicans that are going to save the world at the Copenhagen World Government Climate [...]

So, the wheels are coming off the global warming bandwagon at last and not a moment too soon. With the Copenhagen Climate Summit almost upon us, some enterprising hackers have managed to find their way into the University of East Anglia’s network and copied over 1,000 emails, data files and code from their climate change [...]

It is 20 years to the day since the Berlin Wall fell and East Germans were allowed to leave the country that was their prison. I was only 12 when it happened and I didn’t really understand what was happening but the constant news coverage and sight of people dismantling the wall by hand as soldiers [...]

You’ve got to laugh haven’t you?  Eco-terrorists from Greenpeace have managed to get themselves onto the roof of Westminster Palace and are staging a rooftop protest calling for “change the politics”. This is what happens when governments use militant protest groups as proxies – they always end up getting out of control and turning on [...]

The British government’s new Energy Minister has admitted that the UK will be facing electricity black-outs by 2016 because coal and nuclear power stations are going to be decomissioned and “green” power can’t be produced in big enough quantities to keep the lights on. It’s a welcome admission that the British government’s energy policy is [...]

Ann Widdecombe has publicly spoken out against David Camoron‘s “A” list selection procedure for Tory PPC’s. The “A” list system discriminates against white male candidates in favour of ethnic and female candidates in a deliberate attempt to artifically “balance” the sexual and ethnic make-up of the British government by placing ethnic and female candidates in [...]

El Gordo wants to set up a £60bn climate change fund to help poor countries come up with bullshit ways to deal with climate change. Meanwhile, BBC News is reporting this morning (on the TV but not on the website for some reason) that an extra half a million families could be forced into fuel [...]

My thieving bastard MP, David Wright, has been rewarded for taking a £17k bribe from a property developer with a job as a junior minister in DEFRA and DCLG in No Mandate Brown’s new cabinet of all the talentless on the same day that El Gordo announced tough punishments for MPs that have been doing [...]

I’ve been patiently waiting for the Daily Telegraph to get round to my MP, David Wright.  I was confident he’d be getting a mention based on the fact that he’s usually the local rent-a-quote for the Shropshire Star but we’ve not heard a peak from him since the expenses fraud stories started. So what has [...]

Another thieving bastard MP has been suspended from the Liebour Party for expenses fraud. David Chaytor, the thieving bastard MP for Bury North, has been fraudulently claiming mortgage payments on his expenses even though the mortgage was paid off by the taxpayer in 2004.  In total he has fraudulently claimed nearly £13k. Chaytor said it [...]

Shaid Malik MP, ironically a Minister in the Ministry of Justice, has resigned from his ministerial post after claiming nearly £67k over three years in second home allowances whilst paying just £100 per week in rent on his main home thanks to an undeclared subsidy he had negotiated with the landlord.  The landlord has allegedly rented [...]

Guido is beside himself at the moment and understandably so.  As an individual, he has done more than most – perhaps more than anyone – to expose and bring down the hypocritical, corrupt, thieving bastard politicians that make up the British government. But as much as he deserves to enjoy himself at their expense, I [...]

Hazel Blears is so far off the moral compass it’s fucking unbelievable. Having been exposed for abusing the expenses system by designating a flat she owned as her second home so she could claim £850 per month in mortgage payments on her expenses and then avoid paying capital gains tax when she sold it for [...]

The Telegraph has details of our thieving bastard MPs’ thieving bastard expenses and come to the conclusion that they’re thieving bastards. The thieving bastard Prime Minister paid his brother over £6k for cleaning his flat. The thieving bastard Justice Secretary, Jackboot Straw, claimed back the full council tax bill for his second home even though [...]

Police have raided a private school and arrested 114 suspected ecoterrorists who they suspect of planning to storm a coal power station. The problem is, of course, that a judge has already given a green light to ecoterrorists who want to cause tens of thousands of pounds of criminal damage in the name of saving [...]

In a civillised democracy a member of an opposition political party would be commended for making public some embarrassing piece of information about the serving government.  Information relating to the employment of an illegal immigrant at the Home Office, the Security Industry Authority giving licences to illegal immigrants or a letter from the Home Secretary [...]

It’s not very often I come out in defence of an MP and even less often a Liebour MP but I have to defend Paul Flynn MP over the attempted censorship of his blog. Flynn makes fun of his fellow MPs and gives them nicknames on his blog.  Some of the things he says about [...]

Telford & Wrekin Council have tried backtracking over their plans to question adults without children in Telford Town Park after receiving widespread condemnation, claiming that the Shropshire Star exaggerated the story and that there were no plans to routinely interrogate people. This is despite a letter from the Sport & Recreation Manager at the council [...]

You would be forgiven for thinking that Telford & Wrekin Council had decided to revive the Imperial Fascist League given their recent pronouncements on the town park. Telford Town Park was given to the people of the town with covenants protecting it as a park with free and open access for all in perpetuity. A [...]

I have just been contacted by my Common Purpose informant who tells me that Third Sector magazine has a very interesting interview with Common Purpose. Common Purpose have admitted in Third Sector magazine to illegally passing on information of members of the public which they have themselves obtained illegally. Third Sector is a magazine for [...]

Public bodies used “anti-terrorism” laws to make over half a million requests for information like phone and internet records last year. In 2006 only 350,000 requests for information were made by public bodies, in 2007 that had risen to 519,000. The legislation that lets public bodies such as local councils get this information and carry [...]

You’d have thought George Ashcroft would have enough to do with his time as a borough councillor, assistant to the local Conswervative PPC and cabinet member for regeneration on Telford & Wrekin Council but apparently not. This letter is in tonight’s Shropshire Star: CIVIL RIGHT TO BE SAFE FROM TERROR Stuart Parr says that he [...]
