Another British Industry sacrificed on the altar of Conservative Party economic dogma.

  http://www.theguardian.com/business/2015/oct/21/cameron-accused-of-misleading-steelworkers-over-80m-aid-fund Cameron accused of misleading steelworkers over £80m aid fund   Steel workers at the Tata Steel plant in Motherwell   Thatcher started this destruction of British industry and Cameron continues her evil work. Heavily State subsidised imports from abroad, this time it is steel, are allowed to flood into this country but the government refuses such support to our own industry. As a result, because our own industries are unable to compete with the cheap (on price and quality) imports, the government  allows the plants to close and the workers to be made redundant. The government justification for allowing the extinction of the industry is the fallacious lie that the industry is noncompetitive and "market forces"  must be allowed to determine the outcome. Not only does this country loose the manufacturing facility, it also loses the skills as...

British workers made redundant as State subsidised Chinese steel floods onto our markets and we treat them to a Sate Banquet !

  http://www.theguardian.com/business/live/2015/oct/20/steel-crisis-grows-as-tata-unveils-job-cuts-business-live Steel crisis grows as Tata unveils job cuts Hundreds of SSI workers try to find work at a jobs fair in Redcar for steelworkers made redundant . China continues to dump its state subsidised steel onto our markets as another 1200 people at least are made redundant to join the 5000 already announced from the closures of SSI and CAPRO. Against this background Cameron begs for Chinese money for other United Kingdom projects (which will undoubtedly cause even more redundancies for British workers) by welcoming Chinese President Xi Jinping on a state visit to this country. President Xi Jinping and his wife arrive in London for a state visit to Britain The Buckingham Palace ballroom set for a state banquet This evening, the Chinese President and his delegation together with Cameron and other "dignitaries" are being entertained at a l...

British Prime Minister grovelling to serial abusers of human rights and worse.

http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/david-cameron-seeks-chinese-support-6654559#ICID=sharebar_facebook   David Cameron seeks Chinese support to bomb Syria in talks with president    This is bloody incredible. The British Prime Minister seeking support for intervention in Syria, from the President of a torturing regime, steeped in the blood of hundreds of thousands of people, serial abusers of human rights and civil liberties. Seeking support when the House of Commons has not debated the issue of UK intervention. Seeking support when the Chinese dump steel onto the markets and cause thousands of British workers to be made redundant. The Prime Minister of this country. leaning over backwards in the hope of getting some financial benefit from China in the form of a few more contracts, which will eventually lead to even more British workers being made redundant. A pathetic Prime Minister demonstrating all of his Tory philosophy where money is the ...

Who killed Jill Dando and why was she murdered?

  http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/jill-dando-secret-files-revealed-5437428#ICID=sharebar_twitter Jill Dando secret files revealed: Murder defence team never saw key profiles Jill Dando (9 November 1961 – 26 April 1999)do Who killed Jill Dando and why was she murdered? In the 1990's, Jill Dando prepared a file alleging that 'big name stars' and BBC staff were involved in abuse. The BBC have since denied any knowledge of the file. In view of developments and revelations over recent years, perhaps the BBC should have another look for the file and the police should investigate another line of enquiry.

Huge profits for private companies at the expense of society..

  http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/water-giants-make-2billion-profit-4703371 Water giants make £2BILLION in profit - but SEVEN of them didn't pay a penny in tax   4/5ths of this planet is covered with water. Yet some private companies, many of them ultimately foreign owned , make £billions in profits selling an essential commodity to the people of this country. Without water, we would all die and these privately owned companies are very much aware of that simple fact. The great obscenity of the privatisation of the water companies, is that a government took what the nation already owned, sold it to their friends in the city, who then offered shares for sale to a few small "investors" and control of the water industry to a small number of large corporations who have been milking the profits ever since. It is a gross perversity,  that companies can make huge profits from the sale of water and collectively pay little if any tax.  There are certa...

David Owen will feel comfortable in today's Labour Party

  http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/david-owen-returns-labour-party-3197563 David Owen founder of the breakaway SDP has pledged to back the Labour Party party Labour turncoat David Owen   This duplicitous conspirator left the Labour Party with the others in the "Gang of 4" when it became perfectly clear to him that he would never be the leader of the Party. Following the CLPD reforms on the questions of MP's reselection and the election of Party leader, (to mention but 2 of the other democratic changes to the Party Constitution made at the time), he along with Roy Jenkins, William Rodgers and Shirley Williams, left the Labour Party to form the Social Democratic Party, which was neither “democratic” or “social” but which was created simply as a vehicle for them to satisfy and promote their own inflated ego's. Ironically, one of the names considered for the new party following the “Limehouse Declaration” was New Labour. The name and the p...

Within the Conservative party, insult and derision is normal.

  http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/david-camerons-young-sidekick-claims-1852193  Liam Walker claims families use food banks so they can spend cash in the pub A young sidekick of David Cameron has claimed hard-up families are turning to food banks because they’ve wasted their money on booze. Liam Walker and David Cameron   A vile and despicable comment demonstrating yet again, how out of touch and insensitive the hierarchy of the Conservative party actually are.  Liam Walker, Chair of the Conservative Future, Witney, joins Iain Duncan-Smith, Nadhim Zahawi, Rupert Charles Ponsonby, David Anthony Freud and numerous other Tory ministers and MPs' who have consistently belittled the work of Foodbanks and demonised the people who, due to ConDem coalition government policies, are now reliant on the charities for food to feed their families. In this first quarter of the 21st Century, it is an outrage that there is a need for such charities and it is to th...
