Trade Unionists are selfish and greedy people.
The trade unions own the Labour party! It was Labour that destroyed the UK economy and put us all in a mess.
Yet the trade unions members (those that are taking industrial action) are too selfish to suffer the consequences of Labour’s incompetence in government!
They want more money and bigger pensions when the country cannot afford to pay them.
Perhaps we should link people’s pensions and pay to the way that they vote at a general election!!

NI bosses did not know about phone hacking
Posted by michael on November 16, 2011
It doesn’t seem to me that it really matters if senior News International employees and owners actually knew the details of phone hacking.
They may or may not have demanded that no details were given to them, which would allow them to say that they did not know what was going on.
The real point, in my view, is that they are just as culpable if they knew and encouraged phone hacking as they would be if they allowed staff to keep them in the dark about phone hacking!
They must have read the stories in their own newspapers and, if they were doing their job properly, they must have wondered where these stories were coming from!
Surely they would at the very least want to know who the successful reporters who had obtained these news scoops were in order to congratulate them!
Perhaps they did not even bother to read their own newspapers!
In my view the fact that they appear to have kept a Chinese wall between themselves and their reporters seriously damages their claims to not know that something was wrong in the organisation!

Stopping RBS banker bonuses
Posted by michael on November 12, 2011
Of course Cameron has to try to stop these abusive banks preying on their customers for the benefit of the bank bosses!!
But it isn’t easy to do.
I had to laugh at the idea of milliband painting himself as ‘the champion of the 99% who don’t get bonuses’!!! This whole greed of massive bonuses and massive salaries and pensions originated from the Blair/Brown governments.
Just look at the Trade Union officials and their pay and bonuses – hardly representing the working class! In fact the working class has been just that under Labour who have acted as most Socialist governments in the world have done – the rich (themselves) get richer and the poor get poorer!
Milliband can say whatever he wants – I see him as a caretaker Labour leader. When the next election is approaching then I expect him to be dumped and be replaced.

Police officers being given desk jobs!!!
Posted by michael on September 5, 2011
I never understood why the Labour government took 15,000 trained and qualified police off the work of policing our streets and giving them desk jobs!
They seemed to then employ more people to become police and spent loads of our money training them.
Surely it would seem to have been more sensible to have left the trained police doing their job, which is policing, and trained the newcomers to be admin staff.
It would certainly have been cheaper!!!
But I never understood why Labour did much of what they did. I thought that their policies were mostly rubbish then, and since Labour were chucked out of power it has become obvious that I was right!!
I would guess that this is why Cameron can claim to be able to reduce police staffing and still have more police on the streets (and hopefully fewer trained police in admin roles!).

Ed Miliband has admitted Labour is to blame for undermining the ethics of British society.
Posted by michael on August 13, 2011
I was quite surprised to see the following item in the Daily Mail. I know that it is my view that Labour did immense harm to the British society, in particular to our children, whilst in power for 14 years.
But I did not expect the Labour party to actually agree!!
——————————————
Ed Miliband has admitted Labour is to blame for undermining the ethics of British society.
The Labour leader conceded yesterday that the moral decay which David Cameron has blamed for the looting occurred on Tony Blair and Gordon Brown’s watch.
He admitted: ‘We did better at rebuilding the fabric of our country than the ethic of our country.’
But in his most provocative comments on the causes of the riots, Mr Miliband claimed that the mayhem of the last week was partly caused by poverty, an argument already made by his deputy Harriet Harman.
‘We have got to ask why do we have people in our society who feel that the way they can get on and the right thing to do is go and nick the telly, engage in the kind of looting we saw,’ he said. ‘We have got to avoid simplistic answers. There’s a debate some people are starting: is it culture, is it poverty and lack of opportunity? It’s probably both.’
Polls show that the public rejects claims from left-wing politicians that poverty and cuts causes lawbreaking.
One survey this week found that just 8 per cent of voters believe the Government’s cuts were to blame for the riots.
Mr Miliband said the riots showed young people have no ‘sense of right and wrong’ and sought to claim the rioters were the same as bankers. ‘It’s about irresponsibility, wherever we find it in our society.’

The true legacy of Labour and Blair/Brown
Posted by michael on August 11, 2011
The true legacy of Labour is becoming more clear as time goes on.
The focus has been on the complete mess that they made of our economy.
The total waste of tax payers money has left the UK with so much debt that we simply cannot afford to properly care for those in need – there are just so many of them now!
But what did the education system do to our youth? Labour policies made ‘adults’ out of children. They introduced a massive divide between adults and children.
Labour policies taught children that they had the ‘right” to behave as they wanted, that they could do as they wanted and that adults / parents / authorities had no right to tell them what to do!
We now have a lawless sub-class in our society – ruined and damaged children who will mostly grow up to be ruined and damaged adults.

Generation of damaged children
Posted by michael on August 10, 2011
I have just heard Hazel Blears talking about these ‘thugs’ who need to be dealt with ‘properly’, and the ‘generations’ of criminals in families.
These concerns were simply IGNORED by Labour over the last forteen years!! All sensible people knew that bad behaviour needs to be punished BUT Labour did not allow children to be punished. They had armies of do-gooders who made EXCUSES for bad behaviour of children. Courts could not deal properly with teenagers and youngsters who were basically out of control. A whole generation of children were taught by Labour’s incompetent social policies that they could behave AS THEY WANTED with no fear of consequences. Even if they were caught these children would often receive benefits such as holidays. In my view Labour’s economic and social policies have damaged the UK severely!

What has the education system done to our youth?
Posted by michael on August 9, 2011
The rioting has shown that we can save a lot of public money by reducing our police force significantly.
We clearly don’t need so many police since they don’t actually do anything in riot situations.
I was impressed at how they could all get dressed up in their protective riot gear and then just stand and watch these moronic youth smashing and burning cars and shops!
Where were the water cannon, the dogs, the rubber bullets, tear gas??
It looked to me like the police made a decision not to take any action in case they annoyed these rioters! Or did the police believe that the rioting would stop if the police didn’t get involved?
