I was intrigued this morning to see the name of Spencer Perceval in one of the comments left on the TimesOnlIne article about OGUL's political chicanery over the appointment of Baroness Who? by the European Commission.
Whilst I did do English History at good old Wellington College up to the Corn Laws, along with the American Civil War, the name was not immediately familiar but I had that troubling doubt it should be.
So off to good old Wikipedia to look up Mr. Perceval, as soon as I saw the reference to him being the only British Prime Minister to be assassinated in office I knew what the commentator was alluding too, or at least hoping for!
However I do fell the commentator was doing Mr. Perceval a disfavour by linking him to OGUL, especially when I read this of Mr. Perceval regarding his time as Chancellor of the Exchequer raising money to fund the Napoleonic Wars -
"This he managed to do in his budgets of 1808 and 1809 without increasing taxes, by raising loans at reasonable rates and making economies."
That does not sound like our former Chancellor now Prime Mentalist!
No, I would rather see OGUL leave No. 10 in handcuffs as he is dispatched to the Hague to appear in the dock with all the other NuLabor war criminals.

"Blood was not a requirement."
This post's title comes from the remarks made by one of NuLabor's "Independent Sector Treatment Centres" (ISTCs) criticized over the death of a patient, an actual Doctor, who was in for a routine operation to remove a gall bladder.
ISTCs are private companies that do operations for the NHS to meet the NuLabor targets set of reducing waiting times etc ...
That a company that was undertaking operations was not required to hold stocks of blood incase of emergencies shows how ill thought out were the standards NuLabor expected these ISTCs to operate under. Nor was the Department of Health's risk analysis very well done to have missed this glaring omission!
Once again it shows up NuLabor's policy of cutting corners to meet it's own targets, in this case with deadly results, as with our Armed Forces it's doing health care on the cheap.

A very sad milestone to celebrate.
Today, for the one hundredth time the towns folk of Wootton Bassett will be paying their respects as another funeral cortege makes it way from RAF Lyneham with the bodies of our Fallen Heroes.
Once again we will see no NuLabor politician there to pay this government's respect to those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in what has been the most bloodiest government since the Second World War.

The start of the festive season?
One associates the festive season with gifts and the joy they bring, so may I wonder if it has started early with the news Harperson is to face prosecution for driving offences?
Couple that with the report over on the TimesOnLine that finally Plod has sent a file off to the CPS over a number of MPs expenses claims. Hopefully this will be the first in many files to wing their way over to 50 Ludgate Hill.
So may we look forward to a number of our MPs having summons to put up on their mantelpieces along with the Christmas cards this festive season?

I've brought home a message for you all that will probably upset Mrs. Dale but after thinking about it long and hard - tough!
I was thinking of casting my lot in with the Conservatives when we get a chance to throw this present bunch of tossers and war criminals out.
However, Mr. Cameron's decision to renege on his promise to allow us a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty has revealed to me that in reality the Conservatives are only in it for themselves and not the good of this country.
Also his failure to nail or even promise that he will reform both MP's salaries/expenses along with electoral reform convince me that the Tories are just another political party like NuLabor. Once again in it for themselves and not for us.
Finally the lack of any real policies on immigration from the Tories tell me that they do not understand, nor want too, the real fears of those of us who are concerned at the destruction of British standards and values by NuLabor's imposed multi-cultural policies.
So when the general election does come along, you're in that voting booth trying to decide where to put your cross, join me and vote for anyone but the present bunch of tossers.
It's about time our political elite where reminded their not so special!

Home at last!
Yes I'm back to annoy you all again!
Although getting home was a bit of a nightmare yesterday, just got onto the M25 to learn the M11 was closed at the very point I wanted to join it, so off around to the A1 only to get caught up in the tail end of a previous accident on that section of the M25.
By which time I stuck in all the start of the rush hour traffic coming out of London, then Sally Traffic informed me the A1 was closed on the final leg of my journey, made the mistake of trying to get thru Donny to the A19 at 5pm!
Anyway I finally made it home with the one thought going thru my mind, in twelve years of this useless government, we the motoring public have been ripped off taxwise as an easy target with nothing in return.
Unless you count average speed cameras as an improvement!!!
PS
Happy birthday to a certain blogger!

A belated au revoir.
Well I had lunch with my youngest and my grandson today, he was in fine form, wish I had had my camera with me to photograph his attempts at face painting with his spag bol!
Just picked the eldest up from work and delivered her safely home and said our good byes.
Soon I shall be setting off down the good old A1, looking at my itinerary I reckon I will manage about four or five hours shut eye before I'm back on duty again. Tried to have a siesta this afternoon, but just ended up with the duvet all over the place.
So whilst it has been a short leave and you will all have to wait four weeks this time before i'm back blogging I hope you have enjoyed my little blog for now.
Till we meet again I hope your gods cast a benevolent eye over you.
Au revior.

A Wednesday morning round-up.
Well for once the girlfriend was not kicked out of bed to go back home at some early hour, because of my late return to duty tonight, we were able to enjoy a leisurely breakfast together before she set off.
So my fellow blog followers you will also enjoy the delights of a Wednesday morning round-up.
Scanning the Beeb this morning, whilst they announce Mervyn King's call for the banks to be split up, the start of swine flu vaccinations and ToeNails Robinson mentioning the party that shall not be mentioned.
We see very little about yesterday's disastrous and record breaking government borrowing figures.
Even the MSM media seems to be downplaying the fact that we are very nearly bankrupt, OGUL's fire sale of our assets will only pay for three month's interest charges on what he has borrowed, and quite frankly I believe it will get a lot worse in the New Year. Especially when the temporary employed workers are thrown back onto the dole queues.
The MPs expenses scandal rumbles on with OGUL's latest wheeze to quell the natives by offering a £3000 pay rise to the troughers. I'm afraid that lamp posts and rope are about the only cure for our MPs that I can actually coming up with as a solution that satisfies the nation. The Daily T's photo to accompany their piece shows what we all know now, Parliament is about to fall down!
The threat of a seven per cent rise in income tax, along with widening the range of goods subject to VAT, is a sobering and frightening fact to come out of what we maybe forced to pay for OGUL's mis-management of our country. Quick calculation means I will fork out about another £2500 to pay for OGUL fecking things up, and the son of the manse gets off Scot free!
Finally, one to make you chuckle after all the doom and gloom this morning, an InterPol wanted suspect has been found working as a guard in an American maximum security jail!

It's a load of balls - of string!
I'm afraid to say that I am one of those who views "String Theory" with a large pinch of salt having ploughed thru a couple books on it as bedtime reading, and boy did they get me off to sleep!
However I will doff my old uniform cap in Michael Green's direction upon his appointment as Lucasian professor of mathematics at the University of Cambridge. Taking over from Stephen Hawking who recently retired from the post.
Reading the Guardian's piece I was amazed that Stephen Hawking had reached the grand old age of sixty-seven - well done that man.
As for understanding string theory I'm still untangling it!

UK sex trafficking - The truth not NuLabor's spin.
Well it looks like it might be safe to go back to the old massage palour with-out the fear of plod bursting thru the door at the critical moment!
Relax readers I was only jesting with my first paragraph, but I'm afraid the Guardian's report into Operation Pentameter the UK's largest sex trafficking inquiry shows that dodgy dossier politics runs deep thru the core of NuLabor philosophy.
It also shows how politicized our senior police officers are becoming allowing themselves to be used for party political ends by NuLabor, and being fooled with dodgy NuLabor "facts & figures" like we were over Iraq.
Perhaps at senior level many of our police officers like Jacqui Smith are not fit for the office they hold, which is a shame for the ordinary police officers who they lead. Let us hope a change of government may encourage those at the top of the service to show a bit more independence of their political masters. Do more proper policing for the Public than party politics for the politicians.

Last Monday morning round up.
Yes unfortunately I am back to work on Wednesday, a short leave as I have to cover for a colleague who is at college at the moment, so this will be my last Monday morning round up for you. Also I'm a bit busy today having to nip down to Sheffield for a lunch time meeting.
So according to the Centre for Policy Studies we are our to our eyeballs in even more debt than OGUL & Glove-Puppet have told us. A staggering £2,200 billion, which works out at over £85,000 per household here in the UK. Looks like OGUL's favourite financial toy PFI is going to come back to haunt whoever get in at the next General Election, and we will be paying for OGUL's financial mis-management for years to come.
The TimesOnLine has an interesting piece on the work of American bomb clearance experts in Afghanistan, who call themselves "The Pirates". Pity it was not about our own bomb disposal experts serving out there. Probably their work was too dangerous for the Times reporter to follow!
William Rees-Mogg is arguing that NuLabor should aim for a hung Parliament at the next general election using a change of leader to achieve this. Interestingly he proposes that the Prince of Shirt-Lifters has his own personal reasons for not allowing OGUL to be thrown out of No. 10. However with NuLabor's record north of the border, the missing Glenrothes voters registers being only one example, NuLabor could probably achieve a hung Parliament with-out sacking OGUL.
Ambrose Evans-Pritchard thinks that a Stirling crash coupled with "Quantative Easing" (printing money to you & me) will be the saviour of this country. What he tends to ignore in his well researched piece is that we no longer have the manufacturing base to take advantage of a fall in the value of Stirling to export ourselves out of the hole NuLabor has dug us into.
Finally, the Orange One's (Peter Hain) attempt to use the courts to block the BNP's appearance on Question Time is a bit rich coming from someone who has been known in the past to use somewhat illegal methods of protest. Instead of fighting the BNP NuLabor should be asking it's self why it is loosing supporters to the BNP?

Biter bit!
Whilst it is amusing to see the biter bit in regard to the latest suicide bombing in Iran that has included in the list of fatalities a number of senior Revolutionary Guards.
One cannot but wonder if there is an element of truth in Iran's accusation that "global arrogance" (their term for the USA) was involved, might not bear greater scrutiny?
After the CIA's and other US bodies involvement with insurgents in Afghanistan during the Soviet occupation, America is not exactly squeaky clean when it comes to backing terrorists. In fact if you look in the USA's own backyard, Central and Southern America, the USA has a shady history of regime change.
So I think I will reserve judgement on this one for the time being.

Pay up and shut up Frank!
I always thought of Frank Field being the only honest MP with a bit of a backbone about him in NuLabor. So I was a bit surprised to see that even he has been asked to repay £7000 in over claimed expenses.
So perhaps accountancy is not one of Mr. Field's stronger points?
However I feel that in publicly challenging this demand even Mr. Field, a man who usual demonstrates a reasonable level of common sense, shows how out of touch he is with the Public anger on MPs troughing.
Mr. Field you have enjoyed a salary and level of expenses which allowed you a standard of living that probably the majority of your constituents do not even get close too. Yet you choose to ignore or turn a blind eye to the troughing of your fellow dis-honourable members with-out speaking about it.
As for your speeding apology Mr. Field, what would be your response if upon examination of CCTV footage it was shown that you had actually been traveling at 33mph in your mythical 30mph zone? Don't try to spin you way out of this like your fellow troughers.
Just look upon this as a tax for your silence, now pay up before even you become even more tainted by all this scandal.
Update.
So it seems Mr. Field feels that it is okay for us to clothe and feed him with-out him having to dip into his own pocket like the rest of us have to do from what is left of our heavily taxed salary.
Mr. Field you're just another troughing offspring of unmarried parents!
