All Human Life is here as one of the more scurrilous Sunday tabloids used to say. Well not all maybe but we try to look from as wider perspective as possible at the glorious, illogical, irrational, crazy things that make life worth living for all those unpredictable, fascinating, wonderful creatures we know as human beings.

Calorie Offsetting - The Fair Trade Way To Stay Slim
Everybody has heard of carbon offsetting, the super wheeze that will allow those of us in the civilised world to carry on as we are while the people of developing nations sell us their carbon allowances to keep body and soul together. Well how do you fancy our calorie offsetting scheme that allows you to eat what you like and pay a poor person to get fat for you

Hate Crime Law - Another Step Towards Fascism?
Those in politics who like to call themselves the progrssive left or progressive liberals love to talk about fairness and equality. Why themn are they so keen to introduce 'hate crime' laws that will grant privilege to certain groups in a system that depens on all being equal? Call us old fashioned but in our view there does not seem to be much justice in replacing one privileged elite with another.

Nothing Good Has Come Of The Internet.
When a technophobe denounces the internet as anti - social, anti jobs, a force for dumbing down or a waste of time it can easily be dismissed but when the CEO of a major technology company like Sony saays nothing good has ever come of the internet we should perhaps listen.

Rubber Baby Syndrome
If you thought the title would lead to a piece about sexual fetishes you are wrong – well wrongish. A programme on television last night dealt with a fad among women of a “certain age” (post menopausal insanity syndrome) for buying fake babies and acting as if they are not rubber but real real. These women, all well heeled and expensively if often somewhat...
The True Hockey Stick
Believer in the new religion of AGW, anthropogenic global warming or climate change will be sick of having their science based faith mocked and their scientist priests ridiculed. To help them hold to their belief we offer a change to own a fragment of the true hockey stick, the sacred symbol of their religion.

Bond Villain Targets Britain's Future by John De Roe.
Bill Gross, the world's biggest bond investor might have voted for Obama hnd has some sympathy for Labour because they talk of creating jobs, but he thinks the British economy is in worse shape than anyone is going to admit and is quite willing to take advantage of our vulnerability."

Drugs Online
One of the few growth industries is the selling of fake prescription drugs online. So long as the drugs sold as viagra, vallium, ritalin etc are just sugar pills there is no harm done. It's when people buy the real thing the trouble starts...
Slutbot, The Internet Cyberhooker
Men, have you been approached by a slutbot yet. A slutbot is a piece of malwae that arrives liooking like an e mail from a sexy young female who is desperate to have sex with you. Click on a link to find out more however and you invite a worm. trojan or key logger onto your computer where it will steal all your personal data. Unlike a real prostitute however who may give you a social diseas or if you are lucky just a hand job before running off with your money, you are never going to get anything from Slutbot.

Internet Access As A Human Right?
A survey carried out by the BBC found a majority of people around the world believe internet access should be a basic human right. We suspect a bit of statistical rigging because the majority of people in the world live below the poverty line and probably have more urgent priorities than surfing the net.

Dodgy Donor Scandal, As Conservatives Squirm We Name Labour Non Dom
As senior figures in the Labour party continue to milk the issue of Conservative Party donor Lord Ashcroft and his non domiciled tax status Boggart Blog delves into the financial affairs of a businessman who has financial links with the Labour party.

Life On Mars
After rubbishing reports of UFOs and alien visitations for years scientists got very excited when they thought they had found water (ice) on the surface of Mars.

Just Say Grace
by Esther S.
30 December 2009

Amongst other things The Daily Stirrer is dedicated to highlighting the idiocies of poltically ncorrrect thinking in public services. Today a guest writer, Esther S. from Texas tells us of a situation in her own family in which politically correct policies and a refusal to considere real evidence have combined to create an injustice. The Grace whose name appears in the title is no angel but she is not a child abuser and even if she did...

What The Romans Did For Us>

ad how it may help us resist the wisdom of crowds and think for ourselves.
by John De Roe
March 2007


Are we about to sacrifice the most wonderful and valuable of the many things the Romans and other ancient civilisations did for us to the worship of the new, synthetic god technology and the wisdom of the crowd?
Magic Money, The Free Market Illusion
Not so long ago politicians and bankers were full of confidence bordering on hubris and they were telling us the good times could go on for ever. So where did it all go wrong. The finance industry blame politicians, politicians blame the finance industry and they all blame us as they try to dream up schemes that will enable the world to carry on prining worthless money and lending it to each other...

The G20 Witch Hunt
It was clear at the inaugural summit meeting of the G20 group of world leaders that solutions were needed. So why his they spend three days an billions of £$€ in taxpayers money sitting around stuffing their faces with fine food and slurping the best wines while doing nothing except point fingers and shift blame?

Too Many People

Obama and his Nasty Nazi Science Czar
Barack Obama has appointed some crackpots from among his old lecturers and faculty drone buddies to positions of responsibility in his White House team but none more dangerously crazy it seems than 'science czar' John Holdren.

The Great Climate Change Science Scam
by Ian R. Thorpe

I have been campaigning about climate change for over thirty years. Now, the more I read of efforts by governments, academics and corporate interests to come up with a quick fix the more I am convinced they are working a scam to make quick, easy money. For decades the only people concerned about the environment were considered cranks, hippies, crusties, crackpots and...

What A Pagan Believes
So many people misunderstand what it means to be pagan, some deliberately because they are determined to decry every faith, religion or belief system except their own, some because their only information on pagan beliefs come from films like The Wicker Man and some because they like the idea of being slightly sinister and edgy. They are all wrong of course. So what does a pagan believe.

Lib Dems Must Stop Themselves Sailing Into The West

Following a reasonably successful conference a couple of weeks ago the Liberal Democrats have edged above Labour in some polls. Though the party leaders cannot do other than celebrate this in public, privately they should be worried. At their annual conference in Brighton this week Labour have turned in a similarly solid performance with no splits, the rumoured political assassination of Gordon Brown did not take place and there were no major gaffes though when the right wing press identify the similarities between Labour's plan to deal with the problem of single parent families and the BNP's Gulags For Slags policy I think the Labour baiters will have a field day.

Next week it is the turn of the Conservatives. Despite their high poll rating the Tories have not yet won over the electorate. Too many people ...

MMR Vaccine To be Made Compulsory?
In a previous incarnation we have blogged about the controversy surroundinf the MMR vaccine and its possible side - effects wich scientists deny but which keep being reported. Now in the wake of renewed calls from the British Medical Association for the vaccine to be made compulsory we take up the cause of concerned parents again

Can Things Get Any Worse?
The government, as always anxious to meddle in the minutae of our lives, health, lifestyle, diet, exercise, drink etc. resurrects a plan for compulsay mass medication, this time giving us all drugs to lower blood pressure whether you have high blood pressure or not. A mother is to have her baby taken for adoption having been branded too stupid to be a mother. On the same day news that 800 Britons are on the waiting list to visit a Swiss suicide clinic. How much worse can things get

Is It WrongTo Ridicule Faith?
There has been an increase in militancy in recent years on both sides of the God versus Science debate. Some people seem determined to establish science as The One True Church, others demand legal sanction on people who make jokes about their religion. So where should a liberal minded person stand on this debate? While the science lobby and some who claim to be humanist without truly understanding humanism is about tolerance will try to claim the scientific way of thinking is the only way of thinking, yet religion remains a source of inspiration to many. On the other hand religion can lead to intolerance and oppression.

NHS and the Tyranny Of The bottom Line

Hugging An African Does Not Help
As theHollywood and New York glitterati turn the volume up to eleven of their shriekophonic charity appeal amplifier in response to news that guess what, the recession hitting the west so hard means Africa needs shitloads on our money. But is aid a good thing. Ian R. Thorpe for The Daily Stirrer reviews a book by African economist Dambesa Moyo that suggests western aid is counter productive.

A Sense Of Self
How do we stop commercial pressures stripping us of our identity and retain a sense of self in these times when we are what we own, our personalities are expressed through badges and T shirt slogans and our cellphone ring tone says as much about us as the books we read?

Bashing The Bible Bashers
The problem with Bible Bashers, those strident fundamentaliost Christians who proclaim the literal truth of their Bible and insist it should be read as a history book is that unffetered by any need for factual accuracy they can make the dogmas of their religion sound very simple when in fact our lives and the societies we live in are very complicated. Just have faith, they say and God will solve your problems. So often without realising it people have ceded control of their lives and surrendered the power of independent thought to a church that is no more than a personality cult.

Age, The New Apartheid
Political correctness has done away with racism and sexism but ageism is rife and, strangely, is apparently encouraged by the Politically Correct Police. The over fifties are routinely treated as if they are half wits, their experience is dismissed as having no place in the modern world. but is it not experience and the continuity it gives exactly what it missing from modern, change worshipping society?
