A new season of Premiership Football is about to kick off, the new series of X Factor is currently being recorded in readiness for it?s usual 3 month run up until Christmas, Eastenders continues it?s relentless broadcast of BBC propaganda and the benefit cheques arrive in their millions ? unabated, despite the government promising otherwise.


So that?s 90% of the UK population happy with their lot then. Another 5% are happy with their lot because the aforementioned 90% are happy with their lot ? by design ? whether they voted for them or not, another 4% are just happy because their drug habit cons them into thinking that they are, which leaves the final 1% reaching for their keyboards to log on to the internet ? in attempt to inform the 90% that they need to wake up and smell the coffee.


But, will they ever listen. In fact, do they even want to listen. I?m beginning to wonder because history tells us that this has been going for some little while:


?Already long ago, from when we sold our vote to no man, the People have abdicated our duties; for the People who once upon a time handed out military command, high civil office, legions ? everything, now restrains itself and anxiously hopes for just two things: bread and circuses?


Juvenal ? 100 A.D.


I don?t know what the answer is but I do know for certain that I?m definitely in the 1% that will continue to shout as loud as I can until an officer of the, soon to be formed, European Union Police Force rolls up with a 4?4, ties a rope to my keyboard and pulls it from my cold, dead hands.


Meanwhile, I?m off to grab the biggest tub of popcorn I can afford so that I can watch the continuing battery of hysteria surrounding the American downgrade from AAA to a Duracell AA ? amidst rumours that the USA will also be downgraded from a Super Power to a Wind Power and Barack Obama from President of the USA to a ?jug eared half Kenyan half wit? with a teleprompter addiction.


Incidentally, nothing on the current economic meltdown (Euro, Dollar or otherwise) from Cameron, Osbourne, Miliband Minor, Balls, et al ? I guess they?re all on holiday ? burying their heads on a sandy beach somewhere.


Oh well, happy days.


X Factor starts soon...

    • This is a remarkable interpretation of history. Wikipedia (with more footnotes and citations than you could shake a shitty stick at sez: The austerity programme was initiated in 2010 by the Conservative and Liberal Democrat coalition government. In his June 2010 budget speech, Osborne identified two goals. The first was that the structural current budget deficit would be eliminated to "achieve [a] cyclically-adjusted current balance by the end of the rolling, five-year forecast period". The second was that national debt as a percentage of GDP would fall. The government intended to achieve both of its goals through substantial reductions in public expenditure.[21] This was to be achieved by a combination of public spending cuts and tax increases amounting to £110 billion.[26] Between 2010 and 2013, the Coalition government said that it had reduced public spending by £14.3 billion compared with 2009–10.[27] Growth remained low, while unemployment rose. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom_government_austerity_programme From memory, last time around they were against the LTNs and competing with the Tories to pick up backlash votes - both failed. They had no counterproposals or ideas about how to manage congestion or pollution. This time around they're simply silent on the matter: https://www.southwark-libdems.org.uk/your-local-lib-dem-team/goosegreen Also, as we have seen from Mr Barber's comments on the new development on the old Jewsons yard, "leading campaigns to protect the character of East Dulwich and Goose Green" is code for "blocking new housing".
    • @Insuflo NO, please no, please don't encourage him to post more often! 😒
    • Revealing of what, exactly? I resurrected this thread, after a year, to highlight the foolishness of the OP’s op. And how posturing would be sagacity is quickly undermined by events, dear boy, events. The thread is about Mandelson. I knew he was a wrong ‘un all along, we all did; the Epstein shit just proves it. In reality, Kinnock, Blair, Brown, Starmer et all knew as well but accepted it, because they found him useful. As did a large proportion of the 2024 intake of Labour MPs who were personally vetted and approved by Mandelson.
    • I used Aria recently to replace the basin waste for my bathroom sink. He was super friendly, communicative and helpful - including changing the washer on the new replacement I bought to ensure longevity. Would highly recommend.
