Emigration is still raising its head as a specter and bad omen for the future stability of Europe. We cannot go on absorbing the worlds refugees without massive implications to welfare, health and other support structures.. The EU as with all forums these days is proving just a talking shop with little power to act and when it does its overtaken by events. No one listens to the UN anymore and the media, who drive most things, these days managed to have a field day this week and changed the parlance from migrant to refugee, which was nice. No doubt we shall all go down the tube as the lawyers wring their hands and mumble about human rights, but wouldnt like one living with them. Time to act is now unfortunately and it is a simple enough thing to solve. Secure the borders and sort the problem at source.. We caused most of it by invading Iraq and doing nothing in Libya. Then to just make the day complete our stance on Syria was at best headless chicken and that lead to the tribes rising, as Gadaffi warned it would before he died! But with what do we address... We have no conventional forces capable of doing the job and the rest of Nato is either backing Turkey in its stance against the Kurds, who are the only effective force fighting ISIS, or trying to put a bargain basement force together to bolster the east of Europe against Russia trying to re-start the cold war.. Sorry, not trying, they have! Interesting times.. As I have said before..We are a tribal based society and history proves and will continue to do so that nothing good comes of mass movement of refugees. We would do well to study how it was done after the second world war when most of the world was on the move. The Red Cross and The Allied Powers did a magnificent job then.. Why cant we do the same now? Cost I expect. I am no bigot or racist, by the way, I am a realist and think that most things can be solved if there is a will and a plan..
I saw with total disgust yesterday that over 90 a month are dying who have been re-assessed by the Department of Work and Pensions and been found capable of work. What that means is 90 people a week are dropping dead who were once being paid disability welfare and have recently been told they are not sick enough by a private company paid for results.. And nobody cares! What is the matter with this country.. 90 people a week dying because some arsehole has put them back to work when they are incapable through ill health.. What?
I met a chap yesterday who had been written off with very good cause, lost his licence and was extremely disabled who had been told he could do some work and had lost his benefit payments. He had no idea how to get from a to b or what he was going to do, or what he could do?
Ian Duncan Smith the author of Welfare reform in this country is a most onerous and despicable man. He lives rent free with his posh wife in a huge house and is just another of those tory gravy train MPs currently on a power trip. No doubt when he is past it he will toddle off to the Lords as did another 45 hangers on yesterday. We now have over 800 Lords all doing bugger all and too many bums for the seats in the Lords. Its disgraceful to think that only China has a second house bigger than UK. Un-elected and unwanted burden on the tax payer... Vet the Lords Mr Duncan Smith and see how many of those you can chuck out to get a job. Fat chance!
Social Media. Well what of it... I for one wouldnt mind a hole lot less of it, as a lot of it is very much less than social.
I watched in horror a short film on Youtube this week were a bunch of feral high school girls in America beat the living crap out of each other, while the boys all stood around in a circle with camera phones at the ready. This made me go on a short hunt and I found dozens of fights in schools recorded for your viewing pleasure.. One particularly savage and very one sided encounter ended up with the serious head injury to one poor unfortunate male who had tried to protect his girl friend.. As he lay there in serious need of medical attention the device needed to summon aid was being used to film his probable demise. The crowd by the way thought it all very good fun and were laughing hysterically. This was in a modern city and in broad daylight. What have we become.. It is beyond sick..To think one could be in total deadly peril requiring aid and your fellow man just views you as ideal entertainment to be filmed, the film circulated world wide and laughed at. I know this has met its ultimate sick expression with the filming by the culprit of the shooting of a news team in the US, but he was a very disturbed individual and goodness knows there are enough head cases in the world committing murder and filming it.. But what makes this all the worse was it was filmed by normal (apparently) kids who seem to have had a morality by-pass. Where are we going?
