Jeremy Corbyn, the Fabian Society left wing elitist posing as man of the people
Labour activists are hailing the Corbyn era as a return to traditional labour politics. But not only is Corbyn a posh boy from a wealthy family, he is a member of the elitist Fabian Society, the left wing intellectual think tank founded in the 19th century, which in the 1930s supported Hitler and fascism.

Electoral Reform in Britain - Is It Time for True Proportional Representation?
After every British election, when around a quarter of voters find the party they voted for is hardly represented in the House Of Commons (In 2015, 8 per cent of the votes equals just 8 of the 650 members, while a party with 13% has just one), people who believe in democracy try to start a debate about reforming the voting system. And as ever, supporters of the two main parties, which benefit most from the current undemocratic system, try to stifle debate.

How To Help The Poor - A look at how mainstream politics talks of fairness but penalises poverty
All three mainstream parties in the May 2015 General Election are focusing, as they did last time, on fairness, equality and helping 'the poor'. As their senior spokesmen piously pontificate there will be no trace of irony from either Conservative, Labour or Liberal Democrat while the spout such bollocks, even though they know their economic policies will penalise the poor.

Racism Between Ethnic Minorities Is The Real Problem

The new face of racial tension? As ex-Home Secretary David Blunkett warns of clashes between Roma and locals in Sheffield, the bitter irony is that the previous generation of immigrants are angriest.
A photo of a smiling David Blunkett, guide dog by his side, hangs on the office wall of the community centre at Page Hall, a grid of terraced streets five miles from the centre of Sheffield.
It shows the former Labour Home Secretary, who is one of the city’s MPs, meeting local people during a visit last summer.
In recent years, the area was home to a social and ethnic mix of indigenous Britons, Pakistanis, Yemenis and Somalis who lived happily together.

Voter Backlash against Media UKIP Smears Is Good For Democracy

We Might As Well Ask The CRU climate scientists to forcast the economic trends
As our finance expert John de Roe digests today's economic statement by Chancellor George Osborne we advise readers to ignore gloomy economic forecasts from supra national bodies with close political ties to the "New World Order". Both the OECD (Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development) and the OBR (Office for Budget Responsibility) along with numerous other thinky tanky type thingies published their latest economic forecasts ahead of the Chancellors statement. These forecasts which are invariably gloomy and predict ...

The Intellectual Bankruptcy Of The Left
The rioting in London and other UK cities in Agust 2011 and the attempts of left wing politicians to pass it off as poliyically inspired protest when it is in fact pure criminality has exposed the intellectual bankruptcy of that politicallt fringe group that likes to style itself the Progressive Left or Progressive Liberals.

Concensus on the causes of last week's riots
I saw a revealing post on The Liberal Conspiracy blog, the web home of UK neo Nazi leftie fuckwits, which summarises what comment writers in the press think are to blame for the recent riots. It's an interesting list, obviously it was posted with the intention of winding up Liberal Conspiracy's following of leftie dopeheads, cokeheads, crackheads, dickheads and fuckwits for their daily ...

The Real Cause Of The Riots: Moral deficiency led by politically correct thinking. Oh so very predictably the left were quick to try to blame 'poverty' for the outbreak of rioting, arson, violence and general lawlessness that has soiled our British summer. Labour Deputy Leader Harriet Harman aka Little Hattie Harperson even tried to claim the trouble was triggered by the coalition governments decision to increase university tuition fees. That is daft even by Hattie's usual impeccable standard of stupidity.

Sick Society Or Sick System

David Cameron today blamed the rioting and looting that has spread around the country over the past few days on 'a sick society.' The Daily Stirrer's View is there is little wrong with 'society that a couple of aspirins and a day off would not put right. The sickness lies in the system by which our lives are governed ... and by this we do not mean Parliament and the government. The whole system is sick from the top, the cabinet ministers, senior civil servants and Captains of Thievery Industry and business, down to the jobsworths who are too eager to enforce petty and pointless regulations and far too reluctant to ...
Cameron's Green Conservatism Is Not That New. Cobbett was there 200 years ago.
Nineteenth century radical and social refomer William Cobbett opposed violence but supported the machine wrecking luddites because he took a broad view of the disruption of rural communities and problems caused by use of machine power at the cost of human jobs. Cobbett was a radical conservative in his time but with green leanings. Where would he stand in politics now?

Britain Should Rejoin EFTA
A new study by Hugo van Randwyck concludes that, if Britain were to leave the EU and rejoin the European Free Trade Association, a million new net jobs would be created. The boost would come mainly from the deregulation – EFTA states are exempt from around 70 per cent of EU directives – but there…

AV Will Damage Democracy Says Cameron

I Am Not A Number, I Am A Human Being

The Guardian's Jenni Russell, a Labour supporter in the past turns on the party and explains how their failure to win the popularity they expected after their claimed increases in public spending can be explained by the obsession with figures, targets, statistics and management babble. On top of that they made the great mistake of treating the public as stupid, thinking we would happily accept ...

Who Can Sensible People Vote For
As the second phase of the MPs expenses scandal reaches epidemic proportions and begins to look as if it will claim more (political) lives that the much publicised Swine Flu epidemic, it casts a shadow over the coming election.
