New Agenda on Sunday. is out! Edition of 14 August 2016

https://paper.li/f-1346065353



Good morning everyone.





With sincere apologies to all for opening today's missive with a political comment (well it makes a change from all that Olympics coverage), 
it has come to my notice that "some Labour MP's, have called on David Miliband to return and topple Jeremy Corbyn as leader".
Now This has got to be some sort of sick joke.
Miliband Major lost to his brother in the 2010 leadership election, and skulked off to the United States to take up some well paid appointment while sulking about what might have been. Miliband Major, a great admirer, fan, disciple and sycophant of the "Great Leader"Blair.Things have changed David. Who ever told you that you would win a leadership election was misguided, misinformed or lying to suit their own agenda. Stay in the USA Miliband Major and enjoy the Hot Dogs and coffee.




Senator Farnham


Senator Farnham, a States of Jersey member, says that operating a single (Condor) Ferry on the Channel Islands to UK mainland route was "a mistake". He added that the cancellation of the Liberation earlier this week is ‘inexcusable’, and that if problems were ‘not fully resolved’the Island would have no other option but to look for an alternative operator."
States members have been saying this with monotonous regularity for years. here is some other agenda in operation here. An agenda which allows Condor to operate a third class service, with unsuitable ships and now the single day "service" of the £50 million Flagship Liberation, which should be consigned to the breakers yard this afternoon.



Liberation


Wake up Farnham and the rest of colleagues in the States. No more words. No more rhetoric and empty threats. The time is overdue to sack Condor and install a new operator.








It seems that a Chinese firm with a one third stake in the Hinckley Point project has been charged with nuclear espionage. Regardless of the outcome of any subsequent trial, the risks of British nuclear secrets (if any) being stolen by third parties is significant. This espionage charge against the Chinese firm, is yet another reason (amongst many) for cancelling the Hinckley Point C project.

My fans from the garage have been working overtime for the past few days. The weather forecasters say its getting warmer! I may have to pop off to B&Q to get a few more fans.
Ces't la vie.

Have a nice week.

Northern Ireland and Brexit. The return of "The Troubles"

Northern Ireland: police attacked in another night of disturbances | Northern Ireland | The Guardian When the "Brexit" debate was still filling our newspapers and our television screens, readers may remember why I had changed my mind since voting to leave at the referendum vote. Apart from the economic arguments, which had become crystal clear after peeling away all the lies and misrepresentations trotted out by Bozo Boris and his "Get Brexit Done" conspirators, there was always the problem of the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Would it be possible to have a border between the European Union and the United Kingdom where people, goods and services could pass freely between the two nations without customs restrictions, tariffs, duties and all the other formalities? Would it be possible to have one part of the United Kingdom treated differently from other parts of the United Kingdom, particularly when Scotland for example had voted overwhe...

The writing on the wall

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/boris-johnson-government-zero-hour-contract-ban-latest-a9257281.html?fbclid=IwAR0OW6qhoVnO9MVH-E9ruKFLnL_V3NQ5PMpYEkGGHEXskJxkAsrr2UJjRIs Two-thirds of voters want  Boris Johnson ‘s government to ban zero-hours contracts, a poll has found. There will be many people over the coming months and years who will tell the "pollsters" that something should be done about the homeless, or the costs of electric, gas and water, or about the costs of public transport, or the failing (and privatised) NHS, or the excessive profits and tax avoidance of large corporations. etc. To all those I say, that if you did not vote Labour then you have only yourselves to blame and you must bear the consequences of your actions. Johnson a nd his sycophant cronies have been given a blank cheque to do as they please and sell off vast portions of the British economy to the Americans, (the takeover of British defence giant Cobham by a US private equi...

Greed and envy are good says Boris Johnson.

  http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/embrace-culture-of-greed-says-boris-johnson-8968276.html Embrace culture of greed, says Boris Johnson Boris Johnson.  "I stress – I don't believe that economic equality is possible; indeed some measure of inequality is essential for the spirit of envy and keeping up with the Joneses that is, like greed, a valuable spur to economic activity." Johnson delivering the annual Margaret Thatcher lecture at the Centre for Policy Studies think-tank, Wednesday 27th November 2013 Boris Johnson seeks to emulate Thatcher. He appeals to the evil side of the "nasty" party, for a society where greed is good, where selfishness is encouraged, where division amongst people by envy and status is championed as a proper objective and where the excesses of business and government are regarded as appropriate and right for the advancement of the few at the expense of the many. Johnson is an evil man with evil intent...
