Summer Recess, Saviour of the Nation

As Lord Allesley listened to PMQ's today it dawned upon him that it was the last for 3 months as our hard working MP's needed to take the summer off.
Initial anger at the idle uselessness of this soon passed. It was replaced by the knowledge that for 3 months- 13 weeks- 90 days no less, there would be no legislation passed. No more laws for the sake of it. Does the nation grind to a halt every summer because our Masters aren't passing new laws over us? No.. The obvious answer then is a 3 month Parliament and 9 months off, thus reducing the harm that can be done still further.

Lord Allesley challenges anyone to question this logic.

Are the BBC working for the Goverrnment

Lord Allesley has just been listning to PM. He has never been one to think the BBC was particularly biased. On this occassion though, the car nearly ended up in a ditch. Jacqui Smith goes on TV and say "yes" to Adam Boulton when asked about knife Crime victims being seen in hospital by criminals. Now the Home Office have realised this is ridiculous and have decided they didn't say that after all. The BBC then try to deconstruct Jacqui Smiths word (unsuccessfully) to point out she didn't really say it. They then have Shadow Home Secretary Domonic Grieve on to talk about it, and instead of revealling the emporor has no clothes when this spin mad government speaks.They procede to try to infer that the Tories had an incoherent line on the issue. Again the BBC were made to look foolish. Lord Allelsey fears he really is in the new Zimbabwe.

Bottled it at the UN

So, China and Russia both veto sanctions on the Mugabe murderers.
The UN is a joke. Mass murder condoned.
The US and Britain had a unique opportunity, Russia, offer talks on missile shield, China threat of Olympic disruption. If they cannot be held to account as reasonable nations in these circumstances, when can they. Brown & Bush busted flushes.

Jacqui Smith Wonderland

So the announcement has come out that is going to save our young (and others) from the Blade. We are going to shock them by showing them knife victims. That's it pretty much. We are not going to have more random checks, less police paper work and harsher penalties. we are not going to work with, and punish where appropriate irresponsible parents.

Instead the Home Secretary really thinks that a bunch of kids desensitised to violence through video games and TV are going to be "shocked" into changing their ways. No Home Secretary they are not they will see it as "getting away with it".

Lord Allesley has been a victim of knife crime and knows how pathetic the legal system was in dealing with it. A charge of possession of a bladed instrument against a man who was obviously attempting to kill Lord Allesley. Only one police interview and accept a plea on a minor infringement, the path of least resistance, prosecution target meeting and least paperwork.

Oh but victims get their say in this new age, they get to stand before the judge and tell how it was terrifying, how it has effected them....Oh not if you ring the police 8 weeks later only to be told the case has been to court, a guilty plea put in and now its all over.

What is the point of more legislation, more empty announcements and more fantasy politics. We need proper policy deployment, real policing less human rights PC rubbish. It is time the people of Britain regained their great country from the social pariahs. This government does not see that. It genuinely believes rewarding antisocial scum will change their behaviour, not reinforce it.

Time for change.

McNulty removed from reality

Lord Allelsey has pondered and fumed for 24 hours, sometimes to put thought down in the heat of the moment is wrong.

However Mcnulty the Minister for arrogance and stupidity has made Allesley explode.
On an interview on TV news on Friday evening, a day when it became apparent that Britain (England Technically) had become riddled with knife crime, when asked what the Government was doing about it, he had the audacity to say , over the last year the government had made several "announcements" on the subject. What does this imbecile believe. If the Government says something is bad we will all stop doing it, if it says its good we will all follow suit. All a Government has to do apparently is speak and we shall obey, the world will fall into line. Have these people really become this egotistical in the last 11 years.

This fool needs to understand we have a Britain where for huge sections of our population aspiration has been removed, normal and sensible aspiration that is. The idea of a career,a job, a better community, its gone. Hand out Britain has led to the only aspiration for some being to join a gang, to be a thug.For others to get 6 pints of Stella, or more channels on Sky. to achieve these goals sit at home and wait for the cheque to arrive.

Lord Allesley is despairing.

Regional Mayor

It appears that hot from the ridiculous bubble of Westminster, Hazel Blears really thinks there is an appetite for a Regional Mayor. This would cover The Black Country, Birmingham, Coventry and Telford and Wrekin.
Now I know Westminster is over 100 miles away, but for heavens sake, what on earth makes her think their is an appetite for such a post.

The idea that the region has a united identity is a thing of fantasy. The whole thing is based on a map of the Public Sector economy, not the real world. People in Coventry feel an affinity with Warwickshire, not Telford, and guess where the private sector trades.

This smacks of a tired government who's attempt at elected regional assemblies collapsed in tatters in the North East, this is it by the back door.

Go back to Westminster, have a lie down and then come back and actually listen to the people. 10 years in government has led to delusion. Its time for change, nationally, then we can have a think about our regions.

Benn state the obvious and shows the PM is in fantasy land

Lord Allesley has just listened to yesterdays BBC interview Hilary Benn gave the BBC. It was on the ridiculous food waste statement. Benn defended it saying that in a world of high commodity prices it was something we could do, after all the Prime Minister can't effect international oil prices. So why the hell did he fly to Saudi a few days ago with press fanfare if his own Ministers knew he couldn't effect it. If anyone thought Blair ran a government of spin, this one takes the biscuit (only one biscuit of course,wouldn't want to waste food.).

The last desperate throws of government are sad, wasteful and pointless.
