A campaign of smear and personal insults

Justice Secretary David Gauke gives an interview to the Sun.

Former Conservative Whip and "Bully Boy" and now Justice Secretary and "Bully Boy" David Gauke, is the latest to wade into Jeremy Corbyn with more lies, smear and calumny suggesting that "Jeremy Corbyn is not on the side of law-abiding citizens". In an interview with the Sun (who else) and enthusiastically repeated in the Express (surprise), Gauke went on to state, "He’s never been a supporter of the police".“Repeatedly, he has failed to stand up for the law-abiding and too often been prone to put crime down to inequality or poverty, rather than addressing the issue of personal responsibility.”
This latest attack is just part of the anti Corbyn campaign, which has been raging in the media and on television for months and over recent weeks has become even more hysterically preposterous as the Conservatives and the media desperately seek more vilification to throw at the Labour leader.
As the next General election comes ever closer, the tempo and extent of this abusive, personalised campaign will increase in intensity as the Conservative party aided by their supporters in the media and business, frantically maneuver to cling on to their flimsy majority.
A campaign based solely on smear and personal insults rather than policy and vision. This country deserves and demands a government for the many not the few.

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...
