Priti Patel blames Labour for failure of conservative government policy.

Priti Patel blames Jeremy Corbyn for the failure of government policy to control immigration.








Blaming Jeremy Corbyn for everything descended to new depths of absurdity on Question Time (BBC Television 10:45. 29th September) last night when panellist Priti Patel, who was born in London to a Ugandan Indian migrant family, stated that immigration to this country is out of control with vast numbers of migrants arriving almost daily, placing an intolerable burden on housing, jobs, social services and the infrastructure of our society. The cause of this problem is, according to Patel, the absolute failure of Jeremy Corbyn to control the numbers of migrants, arriving in this country from Europe and additionally as refugees from outside, and the failure of his policies on immigration. The problem will, according to Patel, deteriorate as Corbyn's policy of allowing uncontrolled numbers of migrants unfolds over time, allowing more and more people to arrive in this country as her parents did in the 1960's, fleeing from persecution in Idi Amin's Uganda. Priti Patel you may remember, made a great point of criticising uncontrolled immigration and the disastrous effect that this was having on the economy of the United Kingdom, during the recent Referendum campaign where she was a prominent member of the "Brexit" camp.

The great deficiency in Patel's case against Jeremy Corbyn as she presented last night, was the simple but momentous fact, a fact that David Dimbleby and the rest of the panel, (either by accident or design) failed to mention, is that Jeremy Corbyn has been leader of the Labour Party for just over 12 months and consequently, as leader of the opposition, has and is, not responsible for this or any other area of conservative government policy.
Priti Patel on the other hand, was elected as Member of Parliament for Witham in 2010 and thus has been sitting on government benches throughout her parliamentary career. She would therefore share responsibility for the failure of her conservative government to control immigration to this country, a failure going back over at least the last 7 years.

Blaming the Labour party generally and Jeremy Corbyn in particular, has become the usual practice over recent years with media and television leaning over backwards in their attempts to discredit the party and the leader. However, the nonsense disappears into complete farce when the factual content of the "criticism" is so glaringly preposterous.

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...
