Is Democracy as We Know It Unraveling?from truthdig.com
The world's democracies, perhaps especially our own, face a peculiar set of contradictions that are undermining faith in public endeavor and unraveling old loyalties.
There is a decline of trust in traditional political parties but also a rise in partisanship. A broad desire for governments to reduce the levels of economic insecurity and expand opportunity is constrained by a loss of confidence in the capacity of government to succeed. Intense demands for change are accompanied by fears that much of the change that is occurring will make life worse for individuals and families.
These crosscurrents are undercutting political leaders and decimating political parties with long histories. In Europe, movements on the far right and left (along with new regional parties) gain traction with disaffected citizens. Concerns about immigration reflect uneasiness among some over the social and cultural tremors in their nations. At the same time, discontent about the economic decline that afflicts regions not sharing in the global economy's bounty calls forth protest against the privileged and the well-connected. In both cases, anger is the dominant emotion.
The convergence of these forces is especially powerful in Britain, which holds a national election on May 7 and where neither of the long-dominant Conservative and Labour Parties is likely to win a parliamentary majority. In 1951, the two parties together secured 96.8 percent of all the votes cast. This year, they are struggling to reach a combined 70 percent.Read more on Democracy Unravelling

Europe is waking up to the threat of globalism and the Transatlantic Partnership
Massive protests in Europe, an issue that unites the bitterly hostile right and left wing politiucal factions in the USA, the Trans Altantic Trade And Investment Partnership (TTIP) must be something quite special. The Daily Stirrer believes it is a corporate power grab, a bid to transfer the lawmaking systems of sovereign nations to bureucrats and corporate lawyers. Learn more below ...

>The Immigration Problem (part 1
As Britain, its voters divided between pragmatism and politically correct thinking, heads for political chaos in an election likely to produce and inconclusive result, the big issue that none of the established parties want to talk about looks set to dominate the political debate through the next government's term in office.
At the centre of the problem of course is they all too typical hypocrisy and self righteousness of the political left. In their zeal to be seen to care about 'the poor' they are incapable of taking a step back from superficial aspects of the issue and those heart - rending pictures of people desperately clinging to sinking boats in the Mediterranean, and see that by encouraging people to try to get to Europe in the first place they are only thrusting the victims of poverty , oppression and persecution into the hands of ruthless criminals who as soon as they have secured the exhorbitant fees for transportation and 'legal fees' simply don't care what happens to the people who have been duped.

The Baltimore Riots: The Verdict Of Baseball Team The Orioles Owner's Son
Daily Stirrer reporter, 28 April, 2015
In the wake of violent protests that left eastern USA port city Baltimore in flames and were triggered by the funeral of Freddie Gray who died after sustaining a spinal injury while being taken into policy custody, American politicians and media commentators are struggling to explain to an increasingly alienated public how the events of Monday evening could happen in twenty - first century America. While most citizens condemn the indiscrimiate violence, many still feel a sense of injustice after news media have reported numerous instances of alleged police brutality over the past year.
In this context comments culled from the social media messages of basseball team The Baltimore Orioles Vice President John Angelos, sone of the teams owner, are particularly relevant. We reproduce them verbatim.
That said, my greater source of personal concern, outrage and sympathy beyond this particular case is focused neither upon one night's property damage nor upon the acts, but is focused rather upon the past four-decade period during which an American political elite have shipped middle class and working class jobs away from Baltimore and cities and towns around the U.S. to third-world dictatorships like China and others, plunged tens of millions of good hard-working Americans into economic devastation, and then followed that action around the nation by diminishing every American's civil rights protections in order to control an unfairly impoverished population living under an ever-declining standard of living and suffering at the butt end of an ever-more militarized and aggressive surveillance state.
The innocent working families of all backgrounds whose lives and dreams have been cut short by excessive violence, surveillance, and other abuses of the Bill of Rights by government pay the true price, an ultimate price, and one that far exceeds the importance of any kids' game played tonight, or ever, at Camden Yards. We need to keep in mind people are suffering and dying around the U.S., and while we are thankful no one was injured at Camden Yards, there is a far bigger picture for poor Americans in Baltimore and everywhere who don't have jobs and are losing economic civil and legal rights, and this makes inconvenience at a ball game irrelevant in light of the needless suffering government is inflicting upon ordinary Americans."
Those opinions will resonate in the minds of many Americans though they are probably not what the Obama Administration's Ministry of Truth wanted to hear at this stage.
Here on the distant side of the Atlantic, it looks to us, and has for some time, that America is set to erupt into civil urest. While the political elite and the authoritarian 'liberals' try to blame all the problems on racial tensions it seems America's communities are waking up to the fact that their real enemy is not different ethnic or religious groups, but the government itself, and the corporate paymasters that pull politicians's strings.RELATED POSTS: American Paranoia

How To Help The Poor - A look at how mainstream politics talks of fairness but penalises poverty

As their senior spokesmen piously pontificate there will be no trace of irony from either Conservative, Labour or Liberal Democrat while the spout such bollocks, even though they know their economic policies will penalise the poor.

Poldark female star: Obsession with topless Aidan Turner is 'sexist and undermines the show'
The more they feel control of the agenda slipping away from them, the more hysterical and irrational leftists and feminists become. The latest outburst has come in response to a few tabloid stories of actor Aidan Turner's 'topless' appearances in the BBC television series Poldark. The screeching sisters can't really complain about male chauvinism as it is women who are lusting for Ross Poldark. So the ladies (?) are upset because they can't go topless too. Well it isn't us lads who're stopping you dears, but uglier, less pert members of your own gender

After TTIP Signed, Corporate Sovereignty Will Trump National Laws
We apologise if readers are getting bored with our warnings about the Trans Atlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) and its undemocratic clauses that will allow corporate businesses to override national governments and effectively operate outside the law. Due to the extreme secrecy surrounding the content of this treaty however, it was never going to be possible to cover the main points in one brief summary because even the members of our elected governments have not been allowed to see the draft treaty. We therefore have to deal with what is leaked to the public domain as it becomes available.
Unfortunately with each new leak it becomes clear that TTIP (and its equally evil twin TPP) threaten fredom and democracy more than anybody could have inagined. Quite simply, the treaties will hand control of our nations, our institutions and our societies to corporate pirates whose only interest is in plundering civilised society.
Techdirt has been writing about the extraordinary corporate sovereignty chapters in a batch of trade agreements, TTIP, TPP, TISA, TAFTA, and a few more, that grant corporate businesses far-reaching powers to sue a government simply for issuing regulations that impact their investments, for example Workers rights laws, Consumer protection legislation, and nationalisation of areas ripe for corporate plundering such as water, electricity and health services. Recently, there has been a textbook example of how the investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS) tribunals that adjudicate corporate sovereignty cases are literally a law unto themselves. A post on US Politics blog The Hill explains the background:
A company sought to develop a mining and marine terminal project in Canada, but it had to obtain approval from provincial and federal authorities. As part of that process, the company had to submit an environmental impact study (EIS) addressing the project's potential impacts on the natural and human environment.
A panel of experts was appointed to review that study, and to issue a recommendation on whether the project should go ahead. The experts recommended against approval, partly on the basis that it would have been inconsistent with "core community values." As a result, the federal and provincial officials rejected the project. The company involved, Bilcon, appealed against that decision, but did so invoking NAFTA's corporate sovereignty provisions.
The ISDS tribunal ruled that: "The advisory panel's consideration of core community values went beyond the panel's duty to consider impacts on the "human environment" taking into account the local economy, life style, social traditions, or quality of life.
The arbitrators then proclaimed that the government's decision to reject Bilcon's proposed project based on the experts' recommendation was a violation of the NAFTA.
The parties to the NAFTA -- the United States, Canada and Mexico -- have all repeatedly clarified that ISDS is not meant to be a court of appeals sitting in judgment of domestic administrative or judicial decisions. Nonetheless, the ISDS tribunal's lawyers ignored the clear intent of NAFTA's corporate sovereignty provisions, and issued their judgment dismissing local decisions following national laws. Because of the astonishing way that ISDS works, Canada can't even appeal.
It shows that ISDS stymies crucial evolution in domestic law. Under the tribunal's reasoning, a breach of international law arises when government officials interpret vague concepts such as the "human environment" or "socio-economic" impacts using principles or terms not expressly found in earlier decisions. Yet, particularly in common-law jurisdictions such as the US's, law develops in large part through new interpretations, adapting to changing circumstances and times. If this evolving process were indeed a breach of international law, the US should expect to face significant liability to foreign companies, especially as ISDS is included in new treaties with capital-exporting countries.
In fact, there is a first hint that the US government is well aware of these huge problems with corporate sovereignty provisions, and that it is already preparing for the day when it loses a major ISDS case. That hasn't happened so far in part because relatively few foreign companies covered by existing trade agreements with corporate sovereignty provisions have major investments in the US that would allow them to make claims. However, that will change dramatically if an ISDS chapter is included in the TTIP/TAFTA deal currently being negotiated. According to Public Citizen's calculations(pdf):
That might go some way towards explaining one of the most worrying aspect of the Obama Administration's plan to fast track the bill needed to progress TTIP through the US Congress. The Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) bill as that enabling legislation has been dubbed when it was released in April 2015 contains a fascinating Section 8 on "Sovereignty."
The legalistic wording of the section appears to make all trade agreements enetered into by governments with the U.S.A. non binding should it be found they contradict any provision of any U.S. law, current or future. Put simply then, in respect of the concerns we and many other alternative media and more recently mainstream media sites have raised about corporate businesses being able to sue national governments if any laws they make or that are already on the statute book interfere with the business goals of those corporations will stand. But non American businesses will not be able to sue the American government or its agencies.
Who Granted The GMO Evangelists The Monopoly On Compassion?
Colin Todhunter, RINF
According to the warped world view of pro-GMO individual Paul Evans, who appears to be associated with the 'allow golden rice' website and the 'Galileo Movement'.
I recently joined Twitter and quickly came to realise it is a place where many go to vent their venom. My recent interaction with Evans led him to hurl such accusations because he disparagingly commented on one of my previous articles (this one), and I happened to respond by raising some of the issues set out below in the hope of having some kind of informed, reasonable debate. With hindsight, there was little chance of that happening.
Evans's attitude is commonplace among supporters of GMOs who seem to have utter contempt for anyone who questions the need for or the efficacy of this technology and merely accuse critics of engaging in "conspiracy" (as Evans did).
But this is part of the strategy many pro-GMO campaigners engage in. For example, back in February former UK Environment Minister Owen Paterson accused Greenpeace of condemning people in the developing world to death by refusing to accept genetically modified crops. Paterson asserted:
"Not since the original Luddites smashed cotton mill machinery in early 19th century England, have we seen such an organised, fanatical antagonism to progress and science. These enemies of the Green Revolution call themselves 'progressive', but their agenda could hardly be more backward-looking and regressive… their policies would condemn billions to hunger, poverty and underdevelopment [with their]… insistence on mandating primitive, inefficient farming techniques… ."
This is the type of standard PR spin that many prominent figures use to attack their critics. The pro-GMO lobby has a history of engaging in abuse, emotional blackmail and the smearing of critics. Anyone who opposes GM crops or food is painted as an enemy of the poor because they take food from their bellies or are even "murdering bastards," according to Evans's colleague Patrick Moore (he of 'I'll drink a quart of glyphosate' fame, before hurling abuse at the interviewer as he stormed out of the interview).
Abuse laced with rhetoric is deliberately designed to mislead, deflect and stir up public emotion. Such tactics are part of a wider agenda that includes making dubious claims about the efficacy of GMO technology and are intended to divert attention away from the true nature and causes of hunger and food poverty.

Could Corrupt EU-US 'Free Trade' Deal Be Extended To Israel?
There are many reasons to oppose the planned ">Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership(TTIP), not least because references to 'free' in the text of leaked drafts does not refer to freedom in any conventional sense but to giving global corporations the ability to operate outside the jurisdiction of sovereign governments and override national law.
TTIP isdesigned to make corportate capitalism the only permissible system in both the US and the European Union. It is being negotiated in a secretive and anti-democratic fashion; not even the elected members of national governments will be allowed to know what is in it before they are required to vote on it. (And as when the European Union's integration framework was voted down, you can bet if our lawmakers, in the public interest, vote down this step towards global tyranny the bureaucratic Nazi shits who are promoting it will say, "Wrong answer - vote again."
The groundwork for TTIP and its equally evil twin, the Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) has been laid by an unholy alliance of banks and the manufacturers of cigarettes, cars and chemicals. These corporate pirates have even had representatives involved in the negotiations which are supposed to be a government level but from which elected members of governments have been excluded.
The latest information to leak out of the negotistionsd suggests a way is being sought to extended the treaty to include Israel.
Cecilia Malmström, the EU's trade commissioner, stated earlier this year that "other countries close to us could link into the agreement" after the contents of TTIP are finalized.
Israel enjoys an extremely close trading relationship with the EU. A deal approved by the European Parliament in 2012 paves the way for Israel to be integrated into the Union's single market for goods and services.
The idea that Israel would be eligible to join TTIP is being mulled over by the cognoscenti in both Brussels and Washington.RELATED POSTS:

Leaked EU - TTIP document: Destruction of Democracy planned
by Ed Butt
A new Leaked European Commission proposal which if implemented would form part of the EU-US Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) treaty currently being negotiated in secret between Brussels and Washington, EU member state legislative proposals will be subjected to vetting by corporate lawyers for potential impacts on private business interests first.
Yes you read it correctly – governments of sovereign nations will need to obtain approval from an unelected bunch of corporate lawyers before they can make laws and policie in the best interests of the people who elected them. As we have been saying for two years, TTIP puts corporate profits above freedom, democracy and the rule of law.
Civil rights and libertarian groups have already denounced this plan as being nothing less than tool to enable corporate business to operate above the law, the references to 'free trade' really mean corporate bosses will be free to do as they like. Consumer protection and workers' rights lobbyists have condemned the "regulatory exchange" plan as an affront to representative democracy. "TTIP is an insult to citizens, elected politicians and democracy itself", says Max Bank of Lobby Control.
Responsibility for the screening of national legislation proposals will be given to the 'Regulatory cooperation body', a permanent, undemocratic, and unaccountable conclave of European and American technocrats. "Both the Commission and US authorities will be able to exert undue pressure on governments and politicians under this measure as these powerful players are parachuted into national legislative procedures. The two are also very likely to share the same agenda: upholding the interests of multinationals," says Kenneth Haar of Corporate Europe Observatory.
"The Commission proposal introduces a system that puts every new environmental, health, labour, and standard at European and member state level at risk. It creates a labyrinth of red tape for regulators, to be paid by the tax payer, that undermines their appetite to adopt legislation in the public interest," says Paul de Clerck of Friends of the Earth Europe.

Argentina: 30,000 Doctors and Health Professionals Demand Ban on Glyphosate
from Natural Blaze
Following on from the conclusion of the International Agency for Research on Cancer that glyphosate is a probable carcinogen, Argentina's union of doctors and health professionals, FESPROSA, has issued a statement throwing the support of its 30,000 members behind the decision:
"The organisation [IARC] has just released the results of a study that overturns the agribusiness model. Thus the complaints that affected residents and scientists outside the orbit of corporations have been making for years have gained renewed momentum," FESPROSA said in the statement.
FESPROSA explained:
"In our country glyphosate is applied on more than 28 million hectares. Each year, the soil is sprayed with more than 320 million litres, which means that 13 million people are at risk of being affected, according to the Physicians Network of Sprayed Peoples (RMPF). Soy is not the only crop addicted to glyphosate: the herbicide is also used for transgenic maize and other crops. Where glyphosate falls, only GMOs can grow. Everything else dies."
NHS executives 'earn £35 million in pay rises' despite funding crisis
by Arthur Foxake
While Labour, Lib Dem and Green politicians accused the Conservatives of starving the NHS of cash,and as many Hospital Trusts faced financial problems and having to cut back on standards of care given to patients, we are learning that NHS bosses awarded themselves over £35 million in pay rises during the worst financial year in the history of the service. Some hospital bosses took home more than £1 million last year, while others were accused of exploiting loopholes to maximise their pay packets.
An analysis of trust finances commissioned by The Daily Mail revealed that the number of NHS executives paid more than the Prime Minister rose by 30 per cent last year to nearly 600.
Almost fifty NHS Hospital Trust bosses pocketed more than £400,000 last year despite standards of care falling dramatically in some areas. Some of these public service fat cats were found to have played the system by 'retiring' for a short period, then returning to their posts full-time as 'management consultants', allowing them to claim a huge pension lump sum early and they pick up double their final salary in fees.
Others were reported to have avoided tax on their earnings by channelling their salaries through private companies. Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt said that a future Conservative government would launch an inquiry into the claims as soon as possible.

The Greek "White Knight" Emerges: Putin To Give Athens €5 Billion For Advance Gas Pipeline Fees
via Zero Hedge
With Greece teetering on the edge of insolvency and forced to raid pension and most other public funds, ahead of another month of heavy IMF repayments which has prompted even the ECB to speculate Greece should introduce a parallel "IOU" currency, a white knight has appeared out of nowhere for Greece, one who may offer $5 billion in urgently needed cash. The white knight is none other than Vladimir Putin. "Just because Greece is debt-ridden, this does not mean it is bound hand and foot, and has no independent foreign policy," Putin said previously.
The move could now "turn the tide" for the debt-stricken country according to a senior Greek official.
According to Spiegel, citing a senior figure in the ruling Syriza party, Greece is poised to sign a gas deal with Russia as early as Tuesday which could bring up to €5 billion into the depleted Greek coffers.
The move could now "turn the tide" for the debt-stricken country according to a senior Greek official.
As Reuters adds, during a visit to Moscow earlier this month, Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras expressed interest in participating in a pipeline that would bring Russian gas to Europe via Turkey and Greece.Read full artice at Zero Hedge

Reasons Why This Pagan Will Not Vote Labour, Conservative Or Liberal Democrat
As we prepare to vote in a General Election that we are told will change British Politucs forever, Ian looks at a choice of three main parties that basically offer the same set of globalist, multiculturalist policies and consideres which way a pagan should vote.
Reasons Why This Pagan Will Not Vote Labour, Conservative Or Liberal Democrat.
The Truth - Labour Privatized The NHS between 1997 and 2010, Now Their Toxic Policies Are Bankrupting It
In the run up to the 2015 UK General Election, and without doubt beyond, one of the great political controversies will focus on the future of the national Health Service (NHS). While most voters consider The Conservatives to be the party of private profit and thus consider Labour a better choice to look after the NHS, Labour has in fact done more, and more damagingly, to privateize health services

Obama Scheme To Declare Martial Law And Give Himself A Third Term In The White House?
by Ed Butt
There are people who will get upset about this story because they are convinced that news reporting must be a colourless relaying of dry facts. News is of course not always about what is happening as what people think is happening and what people are saying about it. Therefore, with only the caveat that the story relates to one man's perspective, that of former Presidential Candidate Alan Keyes, on what might happen over the next few months in the contest for the US Presidency.t
Here we present an extract from a World Net Daily commentary on Obama's recent bizarro world behaviour as the rest of the USA prepares for the 2016 presidential race, with an opening paragraph om Mr. Keyes credentials. And is case any on the hand wringing, breast beating, wailing, teeth gnashing, professional offence takers of the politically correct left are feeling inclines to scream "Racist, Alan Keyes is in fact slightly darker of complexion than Obama.
Alan Keyes was Ambassador to the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations during Ronald Reagan's presidency and served as Reagan's Assistant Secretary of State for International Organization Affairs from 1985 to 1987. Keyes is an author and political conservative activist, and in his latest op-ed over at WND, he suggests that Obama's dangerous deal with Iran, despite their consistant support of terrorism, is part of a larger plan by Barack Obama and the "elitist faction that lifted him to power."
The scenario Keyes lays out in his commentary is chilling and one that has been touched on by others, such as Dr. Ben Carson, where he asserts that the agenda is to cause conditions that would justify declaring martial law in America in order for Obama to remain in the White House.
Key Quotes:
What if Obama isn't looking to his "legacy"? What if the threat of nuclear devastation he helps to arm with this agreement (an America-hating Iran with nuclear bombs) is to be brandished, along with a related threat from ongoing terrorist uprisings on U.S. soil, to create the exigent circumstances needed to justify imposing martial law throughout the United States and a plausible excuse for demanding that Obama remain in office until the emergency passes?
There it is. The unthinkable scenario predicated upon the thought that Barack Obama and those who lifted him to power are precisely what they appear to be – the enemies of America's power, its prosperity, its constitutional liberty, its moral strength, indeed of everything about America except their own boundless ambition. Why is it at all inconceivable that people willing to collude with and arm our boldest enemies may be doing so for the sake of their own power? Why should we be unwilling to ponder the possibility that the Obama faction has agreed to help Iran achieve hegemony in the Middle East in order to help themselves to dictatorial control over the United States? What certainty do we have that, in some secret, back-channel codicil, this agreement is not already in place?
Many would call this a conspiracy theory, others wave it away as paranoia, but when we consider the recent flurry of news on Jade Helm, which Stefan Stanford of All News PipeLine first reported on back on March 13, 2015, providing leaked documents on the US military training exercises, showing an unprecedented and dangerous drill on US soil, geared toward "unconvential warfare, with "surgical strikes and extraction" exercises, while listing multiple US states as "hostile," many are concerned the US is preparing to do just as Keyes suggests.... declare martial law and wage war on Americans.
It isn't just the Iran deal that, but a litany of actions taken by the US government, from allowing terrorists into the US, ISIS threats as Ben Carson speaks of in the video below, the ongoing tensions with Russia and now China, both of which are nuclear powers, among other concerning decisions being made by the Obama administration, that has more and more people wondering if the ultimate plan, the endgame, isn't exact what Keyes is suggesting
This is a British website so stories like this are an amusing diversion from the utterly depressing news being thrown up by our own election, campaigning for which is in progress now. How seriously can it be taken? We would not like to comment, it is however a good talking point for the next few months.
Putin Reveals Possession of 9/11 Satellite Imagery: U.S. Complicit in False Flag Attack
from Anonymous hacker commune website
(A caveat here: This is posted as a talking point, while Anonymous are usually reliable as far as sharing what they find online, there is no way they can vouch for the authenticity of the content - this could be true or it could be simply Russin government propaganda aimed at destabilizing the western alliance.)
Reports are slowly starting to flood unfiltered news sources that Putin is preparing to release evidence of the involvement of the US government in the attacks on 9/11, including satellite imagery. The original report was published on February 7th by the Russian political newspaper, Pravda (also in English).
Many have concerns of the validity of the report as Pravda is associated with the Communist Party of the Russian Federation. Originating in 1912, Pravda was the leading newspaper of the Soviet Union, and even after it was sold off by Russian President Boris Yeltsin, it still sold millions of copies per day during its peak. The news source now only sells 100,000 copies per day and is considered by American critics to be a "conspiracy theory website that buys into everything anti-U.S. with non-satirical conviction."
Regardless of one's opinion on Pravda, the idea that Russia has been withholding evidence relating to the attacks on 9/11, and the U.S. government's involvement, has been around for a while, even with reports that Putin claimed an inside job would be impossible. Some believe this is because it's merely a rumor, while others believe Russia has been saving the evidence as political ammunition. Either way, Putin is bound to keep silent on the topic to the media.
It appears the first copy of this article to reach the U.S. was through Veterans Today:
"The article below was forwarded to us for publication in the U.S. and translated from Russian."Echelon program to track every email on the planet, and had followed four of the 9/11 hijackers for six months when they were disbanded in Jan 2001. CIA asset Susan Lindauer reported WTC/airliner attack emails to other agencies and was tried for treason. FBI agent Harry Samit arrested hijacker #20 on Aug 16, 2001 and sent a 26 page list of evidence to 50 FBI headquarter offices, ordered to not interrogate. Thirty eight of the Able Danger officers were ordered to the Pentagon on 9/11 and were in the targeted room. The Slick Willy appointed assistant Attorney General, Jamie Gorelick placed the FBI/CIA firewall blamed for the intelligence failure, and was appointed by Baby Bush to the 9/11 whitewash commission.

Monsanto Whistleblower Admits Entire Department Exists to "Discredit" Scientists
Dare to publish a scientific study against Big Biotech will mount a campaign similar to a medieval witch hunt, aimed at defaming and discrediting you. All in all this is very similar the what happens in any area of commercial activity in which researcers working in the public interest collide with the science whores who prostitute themselves for corporate money.

Corporate Capitalism Has Replaced Democracy In Western Nations
Although this is about the UK General Election in 2015 it has much wider relevance, concerning what is happening in the democratic societies of the developed nation. For that reason this look at how corporate capitalism is usurping democracy and individual freedom will also be relevant long after that election in May 2025.

Rhodes Statue Defaced As South Africa Slides Back Into Primitive Tribalism
A statue of colonial leader Cecil Rhodes at the University of Cape Town has been removed after students launched an uncompromising campaign to have the British explorer and businessman expunged from history.
The statue, honouring the achievments of a man who was mining magnate, railway pioneer, law - giver, philanthropist and politician rolled into one has stood in the grounds of the university since the 1920s. Rhodes donated the land on which the institution is built and provided much of its initial funding. His endowments still benefit the uinversity almost a hundred years later.
Protesters poured red paint on the bronze figure and danced on the plinth as the statue was lifted off on Friday. "It was a symbol of institutionalized racism," said Ramahiba Mahapha, the leader of students' representative council, showing once again that the most creative modern students get is to mouth leftist catchphrases.
The Students began a hashtag campaign (#Rhodesmustfall) earlier in the year and have repeatedly vandalized the monument with spray paint and buckets of human excrement, forcing the university management to board it up in March.
Since the statue was removed, the Twitter hashtag #Rhodeshasfallen has replaced #Rhodesmustfall in the idiotic left wing meme stakes. Here are a few examples of the moronic tweets appearing there.

Now that #RhodesHasFallen. How about we just stop erecting statues altogether? Plant trees instead? Signifies future, growth & humility.
The spirit of Robert Mugabe is here, Rhodes had to fall. What a coincidence! #RhodesHasFallen
Racism, vandalism and brutality to add to the systemic corruption, nepotism, crminality and vagina mutilating. So much for Nelson Mandela's Rainbow fucking Nation.
Years ago a black African, a professional man living in Britain, told me Africa was a decent place to live when the Europeans ruled. I just wonder why it is then, in the post colonial era which only ended 50-60 years ago or less in some places, why so many of the African continent's young people are risking their lives to make the 300 to Europe in? Is that= mile trip to Europe in inflatable boats or rust buckets fit only for the breaker's yard. Is than the white mans fault too?
More recently, in a television documentary, two ex-Rhodesian ranking police officers, who had returned to the Former UK, when Rhodesia became Zimbabwe and gone back as contract workers in some capacity told of how shocked they had been at how little time it had taken Mugabe and co. to reduce a good and prosperous country into a corrupt, poverty stricken shithole.
This story is about a week old but there has not been a word about it mainstream media. Rhodes was controversial, he was (correctly) described as a pirate or robber baron by his contemporaries. So what, many historical figures are extremely unpleasant people when you get down to it. (On the other hand Rhodes was reputedly a homosexual so aren't those hypocritical lefties just being homophobic when they criticize him?)
The greatest hypocrisy of the left is in their saying that the colonial powers caused the African nations to be third world countries. There were no civil wars or tribal genocides when most of Africa was British, Dutch, Portuguses or French colonies (the Belgians did not do will in Congo but for understandable reasons). The Colonialists did things wrong, yes, but made improvements too. The left, particularly the 'trendy' students, can't seem to grasp that there are two sides to this.
Blaming a statue of a dead man for the failures of current African rulers hardly bodes well for the future of that blighted continent.
And it isn't just Rhodes
Port Elizabeth's Queen Victoria statue vandalised
The statue of Queen Victoria, which stands in front of the public library in Port Elizabeth, has become the latest in a series of South African statues to be vandalised.
The statue was seen covered in green paint on Friday morning (10/04/15).
Several statues have been vandalised across the country this week including the Horse memorial in Port Elizabeth and an Anglo-Boer War memorial in Uitenhage.
The EFF has distanced itself from this specific case of vandalism. A party spokesman said they were not behind the green paint splashed on the statue. Continue reading

US Soldiers Forced To Sit Through P C 'White Privilege Presentation. Not Happy Bunnies
by Dave Urbanski
The U.S. Army is investigating an unauthorized diversity training presentation on "white privilege" shown to hundreds of Georgia soldiers, USA Today reported, citing an Army spokeswoman.
The Equal Opportunity training presentation was shown to about 400 soldiers of the 67th Signal Battalion at Fort Gordon on Thursday, according to Captain Lindsay Roman.
The portion of the program involved a slide projected on a screen entitled "The Luxury of Obliviousness," which listed elements of "white privilege.
"Race privilege gives whites little reason to pay a lot of attention to African Americans or to how white privilege affects them. 'To be white in American (sic) means not having to think about it,'" one bullet point read.
After an image of the slide was posted to a Facebook page, the reaction was swift and pointed.
"That should be instant UCMJ and Dishonorable Discharge for the instructor who deviated in this manner," George Stevens wrote.
"Pretty sick of hearing about white privilege. Nearly my entire chain of command and NCO support channel have been Hispanic or black since I joined," Tim Wilson Jr. added.
"True story: I went to a forced EEO class and the white female SSG said we white folks were a problem. I looked around the room and everyone of every race were rolling their eyes," Scott Hampton Truelove recalled. "We of all races went fishing, eating out, having BBQs, went to the club, together. We all never had a problem with race. We as a group stood up and walked out. She was cutting into our beer drinking time."
Captain Roman said the instructor was out of line.
"The unit (Equal Opportunity) instructor deviated from the authorized topic and content which was provided," Roman told USA Today. "To prevent further instances, all unit instructors will receive additional training on the importance of following Army EO training requirements."Truth about racism

Punish Climate Change Liars" Demands Climate Change Liar
Over the years my scepticism about global warming and attempts to initiate intellgent discussion of the dodgy science based on mathematical models that forms the basis of the Warmageddonist case, versus much less alarming projections based on data from real world observations haveearned me accusations of being a child murderer. Not only that, some of the lefties who support climate fascism have demanded the death penalty for people who disagree with them. And yet they think it unfair to punish certain child rapists and murderers. Hypocrites.
Punish Climate Change Liars" Demands Climate Change Liar
The lies that sold the climate change scare
There are only two gertainties in life, death, taxes and dishones ... there are only three certanties in life, death, taxes, dishonest politicians and gr ... sorry I slipped into the Monthy Python Spanish Inquisition sketch again. There are actually four certainties, death and dishonest politicians go without saying, taxes we all hate but know we have to pay them for roads, sewers, healthcare, defence of the realm and stuff like that, (we also pay tax for education but the state no longer provides education, only ideological indoctrination). The fourth and newest certainty is green taxes.
The latter are not taxes in the traditional sense but punitive levies imposed by the fascistic regimes of successful developed nations like the UK, so politicians can advertise that they really, really do care about the environment while paying crooked scientists to fake data supporting the lies they tell to justify their punitive levies. Problem, they don't give a flying fuck about the environment, caring only about getting re-elected / given sinecures in supra - national bureaucracies like the United Nations or the OECD. But they expect us to pay for the costly and idiotic mistakes they make in their pursuit of power / rent / beautiful, young, high maintenance mistresses.
On March 19 the Daily Telegraph published a story highlighting the hike in taxes we will all be expected to carry because Green levies on energy bills look set to to treble by 2020. This is due to the costs that will be incurred in meeting renewable energy targets imposed by supra national bureaucracies like the United Nations and the OECD. The green taxes are expected to fund new wind, solar and nuclear plants.
First thing the Watermelons (green on the outside, red on the inside) don't tell you is none of us will have any money to pay green taxes because 'sustainable' energy sources do not produce a sustainable power supply due to the sun not remaining high in the sky and the wind not blowing at a stready 27 miles per hour for twenty four hours a day, which means the only way the energy dependent developed nations can meet their targets is by shutting down industry and commerce and going back to using ox - drawn ploughs and harvesting grain by having gangs of men cut it with scythes.
Because energy provision has been privatised to for profit companies, the financial penalty of renewable energy subsidies needed to make windmill and mirror generating farms profitable will rise from £3.1 billion to £9.4 billion by the end of 2020, according to the government's own estimates. The climb is being driven by the imposed target for 30 per cent of Britain's electricity to come from renewable sources by 2020.That in itself should be enough to make any reasonable person stop and ask the question: Is the Green religion worth it if the cost is so prohibitively high? Of course, the answer is: no it isn't.
Paul Homewood, on his Notalotofpeopleknowthat blog, agrees. He has taken close look at the numbers and found out that they (surprise!) do not add up. Homewood then contacted the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) which confirmed that the costs will be a good deal higher than the government dares reveal.
Homewood says:
"Unfortunately, though, that is the only bit of good news. The £9.4 billion figure is the cost of what the OBR describe as "Environmental Levies"." Homewood then outlines a few other taxes and levies that are not included under that above category, viz;
1) Climate Levy/Carbon Floor Price
This amounted to £1.2bn last year, and is set to increase to £1.6bn by 2020.
2) Air Passenger Duty
Currently raises £3.0bn, increasing to £3.7bn by 2020.
3) Energy Company Obligation/Smart Meters
The OBR offer no figure for this, as it is outside their remit. However, DECC's projections show the annual cost of this, which all falls on domestic users, rising from £39 to £59 between now and 2020, (at 2014 prices). Based on 26 million households, the cost by 2020 would be £1.7bn.
When all of the above is combined, the total cost of the various levies soars to £90.6bn between 2013/14 and 2019/20. Which is a figure a considerably further north than we were originally told by the the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change.
That new figure as calculated by Homewood equates to £3485 for every household in the country. So when lying Labour politicians dismissed David Cameron's claim that a Labour government would cost families and extra £3000 a year in taxes they were lying. Cameron was lying too of course, he never mentioned that the Conservative policy on green energy is dictated by the EU so a Conservative government would cost families an extra £3000 in taxes.If we feel generous we may assume he didn't know. More likely however he was being deliberately disingenuous as he sought to burnish his Green credentials.
Either way, it will be us poor taxpayers who for out as he or Ed Miliband buys a seat on the globalist gravy train with our money.
EU Sets Out Groundwork for Antitrust Charges Against Google
People who have a binary mindset and assume there are only two possible positions on any issue, (i.e. scientists, politicians, schoolteachers, progressive socialists,) may assume this publication is anti European Union. Not so. We are anti - integration, seeing only a path to fascism in the European commission's plans to abolish the individual sovereignty of member nations and create a federal superstate run by unelected bureaucrats.
If we can steer the European Union away from its World Domination ambitions and collaboration with the other Word Domination power, USA and the corporate cartel working with both to advance globalist agendas, the European Union has its uses. One area in which it has been incredibly valuable in in resisting the efforts of the world's most fascistic corporations, in particular United States NSA collaborator Google, to establish global monopolies.
The European Commission is set to file an antitrust lawsuit against Google in the next few weeks as a five-year-old investigation into the US internet search giant's business practices comes to a head. The problem arose out of allegations Google abused its position as the dominant search company.
U.K. websiteBusiness Insider reports that the Commission is requesting companies that have filed complaints against the company for permission to publish their complaints in a document known as a Statement of Objections.
If the EU and Google cannot reach a settlement, the Commission could potentially fine Google up to 10 percent of its annual revenue, which would amount to more than £4 billion ($6 billion), although the company will have the right to appeal to Europe's highest court.
The outcome could be highly damaging to Google, even if the wannabe monopoly does not end up paying the fines. It will have to spend a great amount of time and energy fighting the case and what is revealed in court will expose the way Google blackmails businesses and has bankrupted those which refuse to co-operate. Previous companies fighting antitrust action have seen new products go through special legal reviews which take years to resolve.
This is the latest in a series of assaults on the tech giant by the European Union. In November last year, the European Parliament passed a motion calling for Google to be broken up, saying it had become too big and was using its power in the market to unfairly hurt rivals.
Although the motion was non-binding, and the EU has no power to dissolve a company, it showed how much the institutions of the European Union distrust the large American tech firm. Many nations are unhappy with Goggle's tax avoidance methods too, and are contemplating action against the company.
Will New German Study End Global Warming Hysteria?
Although evidence that the global warming scare has been a massive scam in which exponents of various typoes of dodgy science lumped together under the label of climate science, in order to justify massive taxes on everything (because everything in the modern economy involves oil or electricity at some stage) and create a $1trillion per year market for Inventment Bankers and Dr. Evil types such as Al Gore could steal more money from ordinary people, politicians, media contributors and of course science academics have stuck to the narrative.

MH17 investigation going off in 'wrong direction' could embarrass 'many powerful people'
There is so much political pressure over the MH17 crash in Ukraine that investigators would rather conclude that no one really knows what happened than make several powerful people look foolish, believes Robert Parry, editor of Consortium News.
More than eight months since Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 was shot down above war-torn eastern Ukraine, speculation in international media is only adding fuel to the blame game, while no actual evidence to back claims has been released.
The US intelligence community is failing to share its own discoveries into the crash, fearing it will lead the investigation in the "wrong" direction, Senior Associated Press Jounranlist Robert Parry told RT.

Supreme Court Fiasco Shows The US Democratic Party Is No Friend Of Democracy
A look at the way efforts by the US Democratic Party to shaft Trump have backfired on them. Trump is no politician for sure, he's undiplomatic, confrontational, crude, economical with the truth when it suits him, and very direct in expressing his views (a change from the mealy mouthed equivocation favoured by most politicians, but whatever his failings, he's a smart operator and he's outwitting the Democrats every time.
How Can The 'Left' Talk Of Equality When They Don't Tolerate Diversity Of Opinion
One of the first things I learned at my Grandfather's knee was the importance of free speech and of exposure to different ides and shades of opinion. Grandad had been a member of the Labour party before World War One and had lived through the class wars early in the twentieth century. My Dad was a Labour man too, until as a newspaper reporter, he learned things about socialism that shocked him.
Brexit has terrified 'Brussels bubble' - German insider The EU elite "lost faith in their own appeal and abilities" following the Brexit referendum vote and the surge in support for nationalist parties. The knee jerk response of the Brussels bubble was to try (and fail) to punish Britain for defing Brussels in the same way as they had punished small nations like Greece, Portugal and Ireland, which in their perception was the only way to prevent the EU breaking apart.How Russia plans to disentangle its economy from US dollar
The Russian Finance Ministry this week officially revealed a plan to end the country's dependence on the US dollar for foreign trade. Economic analysts are warning it will be a long process, but Russia and China, with support from Iran and a number of other oil rich countriies whose oil trade is restricted by US use of the petrodollar to manipulate makets, are several years along the road to economic independence alredy ...

Retired Swedish Police Chief Says Malmo Crime Skyrocketing Due To Immigration
Labour activists are hailing the Corbyn era as a return to traditional labour politics. But not only is Corbyn a posh boy from a wealthy family, he is a member of the elitist Fabian Society, the left wing intellectual think tank founded in the 19th century, which in the 1930s supported Hitler and fascism.
A story picked up by Pam Geller (always a reliable fact checker although some dislike her sensationist style of reporting) of Muslim migrats raping German women while migrant women are being forced into prostitution is not playing well with the femiists and left wing extremists who want us to believe the lie that these barbarians actually enrich our culture.
Sweden continues to lead the way in surrendering its nation, culture and self respect to exremist Muslim dickheads, reasoning that the violent rapists and murderers of the relion of peace will thank them rather than kill them all. but the people all over Europe are waking to the betrayal of their elites.
As the tide of refugees fleeing Syria's bloody civil war, swelled by African economic migrants masquerading as Syrians continues to tear the European Union (EU) apart, and as Brussels struggles to formulate a coherent policy for handling the crisis as member states go their own way with measures to close border crossing points, divert migrants to other member nations, or ...

The Real Refugee Crisis Is In The Future
Perhaps Angela Merkel thought we didn't yet know how full of it she is. Perhaps that's why she said yesterday with regards to Europe's refugee crisis that "Everything must move quickly," only to call an EU meeting a full two weeks later. That announcement show one thing: Merkel doesn't see this as a crisis. If she did, she would have called for such a meeting a long time ago, and not some point far into the future.
Last week, in the global currency war's latest escalation, Kazakhstan instituted a free float for the tenge.

New EU Tax Laws Force Thousands of Businesses to Close in Just Six Months
Our editorial policy has for years been to expose the EU for the anti - business, anti - democracy European wing of the Global Government cartel. And let's be honest, a quick browse through our Europe index will provide plenty of evidence to suppport our view. Given the and their collectivist dupes' talent for ignoring evidence however, every hammer blow we can strike that exposes their global, totalitarian, bureauceatic dictatorship will help get the message across.
The Financial Times Calls for Ending Cash, Calls it a "Barbarous Relic"

3,000 Migrants Rescued off Italy in Single Day, Tensions Rise
Italy's coastguard on Saturday led an operation to rescue around 3000 migrants from the waters of the Mediterranean after distress calls were picked up from more than 20 overcrowded vessels drifting in waters off Libya. In the biggest single-day rescue operation to date there were no reports of casualties. Reports have been coming in however of hundreds of life jackets and other items being washed up along a stretch of coastline, which suggests the naval rescue flotilla may not have reached al the stricken boats in time.
Trump catches attention of CFR, Bilderberg, Trilateral
Donald Trump is portrayed as a clown by mainstream media and his combover is the silliest I have ever seen. Still, he's a billionaie so I don't suppose he gives a flying fuck what The Daily Stirrer thinks of him. Not that we think he is all bad, anyone who attacks Obama's global naziism trade deals, TTIP and TPP mush have some good points.
It Looks As If Carbon Credits Scam Has INCREASED CO2 Emissions
As the climate change scare becomes more and more exposed for the money making fraud it always was, they green weirdie beardie, rope sandal wearing tree huggers get more hysterical and stupid in their arguments that we must all return to medieval lifestyles, the billionaires like Al Gore who hope to profit from it keep flogging the dead horse and the angrier and more vicious the left wing hate mobs become in their witch hunts.
The number of migrants crossing the Mediterranean and making their way (illegally) through the Balkans to Germany has passed the government's worst casse estimates. The unprecedented influx has now forced Berlin to hastily revise the figure upwards. Although the German government had already acknowledged the need to revise estimates, the latest number is beyond all expectations ...
One drink a day increases the risk of breast cancer by 15 per cent, scientists claim
Another example of pseudo scientific scaremongering from Harvard University's Department Of Cutural Marxist Propaganda, using spurious statistics (when they cite risk they do not mean 15% but 15% of 13%) in supprt of liberal / left wing politicians anti alcohol campaign, which is not about health but an excuse to raise taxes. The whole house of cards is demolished here by a writer who really understands statistics and is not ingornant of human nature.
Climate Change: Have We Reached the Point of No Return?
Dahr Jamail and Guy McPherson: Many new studies and modeling say reversing climate change is a pipe dream - brace yourself for human extinction.

Labour Leadeship Contest, Corbyn Comedy Caper
When Labour elected Ed Miliband as their leader in 2010 it was clear the party had a death wish. The 'broad church' Prime Minister Harold Wilson spoke of in the 1960s, the alliance of intellectuals and socially conservative industrial workers who made up the party's core vote managed to coexist. Then came feminism, politically correct thinking, New Labour factions as the party started to tear itself apart. It looks as if we are in the endgame.
Food health fascism: Salt, Sugar, Saturated Fat, Alcohol, Cheese, Fizzy Drinks, Chocloate, ... if you enjoy it, it will kill you - maybe.
We are all familiar with those health scare stories that seem to pop up in mainstream media at least once a week claiming this that or the other will kill us. Few people spot the irony in that a few days earlier the same sensationalist rag will have carried a story under a similar screaming headline, claiming that scientists have found the stuff being demonised is in fact good for us ...
Massive Explosion in China: Do We Know the Full Story?
The massive explosion at a chemical plant in the city of Tianjin in northern China was a shocking eveny by any standard. But as usual in recent years, once the initial horror recedes the unfortunate accident narrative starts to unravel. The first thing we notice is that the disaster is very convenient for certain parties, the second is that official news reports just don't make sense, and the third is that eye witness reports contradict the edited news stories. Now read on ...

With mainstream media focused on ISIS and Ukraine amid, fears of an excalation of local problems into a war between East, West and Islam, we are in danger of forgetting nasty little civil conflicts like the one between forces loyal to the secular dictator Assad and the Al Nusra rebels who want to replace a secular dictatorship with an even more ruthless theocracy.

Warring Migrant Tribes, Street Shootouts, Grenade Attacks, Government Says Its Multiculturalism? WTF Is Going On In Sweden?

So Who Are The real Racist Bigots - Those Who Have Opinions or those who would abolish free speech?
Since we began publishing in 2009 we have warned that the real enemies of freedom, the ones who would turn certain sectors of the community are not the conservatives and libertarians, but those who try to mask their fascistic politics by calling themselves left, liberal or socialist. If you want to know what socialism is really all about read up on Stalinist Russia or Maoist China and if you want a comparison for the 'liberal values of Labour and Social democrat voters in Europe or American democrats, look no further than the medieval Inquistion and their brutal purges of 'heresy'.

TTIP in the EU: Rejecting Democracy
Trade deals have traditionally been about lowering particular tariffs for imports and exports of goods from one country to another. Trade is not as simple as that any more and for TTIP tariffs are a tiny part of the negotiations because tariffs between the EU and US are virtually non-existent these days. Trade in TTIP is about issues that are relevant and important to us all: from which services are publicly provided, to the safety of the food on our plates

Ending the Ownership of Money

How Ironic That Humourless Warmageddonists Will Not See The Irony
I've lost count of how many times this blog has highlighted the extraordinary consistency with which politicians and scientists working in concert manage to achieve the exact opposite of what they are aiming for.

America and UK Lead the World in Climate Scepticism Several times now it has looked as if the climate chance scare was over as the enthusiasm of climate scitentists for changing real world data to fit in with the predictions of their mathematical models has been exposed.

Sham Marriages To Beat Immigration Laws Are Out Of Control
With main immigration news on being dominated by the Mediterranean boat people crisis and the masses at Calais hoping to stow away in a freight container, we forget that another way of getting somebody into the country is the sham marriage.

Mediterranean Immigrant Composite
The flow of undocumented migrants from Africa trying to cross the Mediterranean from the coast of Libya to Italian, Greek and Maltese territory seems unstoppable.

Updated data from NASA satellite instruments reveal the Earth's polar ice caps have not receded at all since the satellite instruments began measuring the ice caps in 1979. Since the end of 2012, moreover, total polar ice extent has largely remained above the post-1979 average. The updated data contradict one of the most frequently asserted global warming claims – that global warming is causing the polar ice caps to recede.

How Congressional Republicans Lie to Approve Obama Trade Deals
With opposition to Obama's 'anything-but-free' trade treaties Trans Pacific Partnership and Trans-Atlantic Trade And Investment Partnership strengthening both in the USA and Europe, it is interesting to observe how support for Obama's neo - con inititiative which would grant corporate lawyers the power to overturn national law, is not falling according to the usual political party lines. Billionaires and those on the payroll of global corporations are broadly in support, others are recognising the threat to democracy and personal liberty.
The ' cashless society' has been a pipedream of technology nerds, control freak politicians and academics who favour global fascism for some years.
