WikiLeaks – The Lessons

Swedish charges no reason for extradition under British Law says Barrister

If that’s the case why is it even being considered here? Well it’s all about what they really wished you didn’t know, for in essence, accounting for what you thought you said in private can be embarrassing and inconvenient. Especially if it happens to be only partially true, it’s often believable as a true opinion.

  As the President in the movie Clear and Present Danger, said to Dr Ryan: ‘Oh it’ll get out Jack, it always does.’

  It did and – THEY -  The establishment, didn’t have a clue. They floundered about wailing how it jeopardised national security and risked lives and therein lies a clue. Now we know what they’re really upto. It’s bang up the publicist, take away his liberty, make an example and the message is: – We’re bigger, stronger and can muster all the clout we need to swot you like a fly, across international borders, if necessary.

  You only need to look at the case of the computer hacker they’ve been trying to extradite to the US because he was smart enough to show how easy it was to access the US War Department computers. They want to bang him up forever.

  The truth fellas is, it’s out there and it’s too late to try shutting the stable door. All you can do is tough it out. Though what seems to be happening in the case of  Mr Assange, is to use him to send out a message that if anyone else ever fancies their chances, should they comes across a bit of choice info, which needs disseminating, this is what you’ll get.

  All they can do in reality, is try to convince you it’s just not worth the hassle, likely to rain down on your head. Thankfully there are some amongst us who frankly my dear, do not give a damn. Why? because we know the truth will out, it always does.

So that’s awight then, now where’s the biscuits?

The Real Truth behind the Fabian Conspiracy

Telling it like it is for all and Sundry

The first thing that leaps to mind is the age old aphorism, that collectively they wish to see everyone riding to work on a Co-op bike with black painted rims (further explanation of this Daykinism, in the not too distant future).

  To modern-day youth postwar realism was lost, on the binge-drinking culture that appears to have developed in recent times, (as the brewers and dispensers of alcoholic boozer sought an ever wider clientele) and probably by-passed this generation, as they seek instant gratification. Though had it not been for what went before such a situation as exists today would never have been possible.

  So a few lines from the speech by the Tribune to Judah Ben Hur might be appropriate at this juncture:-

                ‘Where there is greatness, great government or power, even great feeling or compassion, error is also great. We progress and mature by fault, but Rome has said she is ready to join your life to hers in a great future,’ he told him.

  ‘Do not crucify yourself on shadows, such as old resentments or impossible loyalties. A grown man knows the world he lives in for what it is. For the present that world is Rome, I crossed the floor and spoke in friendship,’ he explained.

  ‘But when I go up those stairs I become the hand of Caesar, ready to crush all who challenge his authority. There are too many small men of envy and ambition, who try to disrupt the government of Rome. You have become a victor and a hero to these people if you stay where you are you will find yourself a part of this tragedy. Even for the sake of these past loyalties I cannot protect you from personal disaster. If you stay where you are, you are in great danger. Leave Judea, you have my warning!’

  Now as the dust settles over the political debacle of the past thirteen wasted years and we seek recovery mode and the opportunity to roll back the frontiers of this blatant attempt to dumb down an entire generation of wannabe celebs, the fallout proliferates as the chancers in our midst seek out opportunity to promote their narrow minded goals and denigrate those they lost out to in the eventual choice of a new generation of leaders.

  So in conclusion if we are ever as a nation, going to achieve the greatness which is our legacy from Victorian times, this is no time to allow the jellybellies in our midst to gain ascendancy. They have to put down with the ruthless articulation that the Iron Lady displayed in neutering the ambitions of the Welsh Windbag.

Here endeth the umpteenth lesson from the Tom Stack Academy of Reason and Responsibility.

High-speed rail link: opinions are divided

The Wimps are at again.

Some call the planned high-speed rail line an eye-sore while others claim the benefits will completely transform the UK’s transport network, wrote the Telegraph’s Jasmine Malone 11 Dec 2010.

  We spent a generation or thereabouts empowering the WIMPS and this is what you get, petty squabbling over things that need to be done to protect our status as the Premier Trading Nation the World has ever known. What do all these plonkers who quibble at every attempt to project this nation into the 21^st century think is going to provide us with the opportunity to enjoy a rewarding and fulfilling lifestyle in the years ahead, as the rest of the world tries to play catch up.

  Though as long as we continue to support this disastrous experiment in Europe and they persistently attempt  to drag us down to their level, assisted by the myopic quislings in our midst we’re going nowhere fast. There can be no doubt that a high speed rail link to the Capitol which connects seamlessly with the St Pancras Terminal to Continental European destinations is the way forward.

  We gave the world railways and are we now such a pale imitation of our forefathers, that we cannot emancipate ourselves from the unelected, unaccountable Brussels fraudsters across the English Channel. For centuries we’ve haggled with the French and more often that not whupped ’em. The French have never really got over the Battle of Agincourt, to the point where they have sought to gang up with the Germans to try and second guess us.

  It’s been going their way for a few years, till they made the fundamental mistake that will be their downfall, by opting for a common currency without the necessary infrastructure to co-ordinate it. It’s an abject failure, for if you fail to carry the International Shylocks with you and depend on borrowing to balance your books, it will be your downfall and that’s where they’re at, in Brussels and Strasbourg, in Portugal and Spain, Ireland, Italy and Greece. Only facts and figures will convince the Shylocks and they remain unconvinced, baleouts included. For no amount of baleout funding is going to convince these people, that their juice is safe.

  The time has come to stand on our own feet again as we have done for a thousand years, till these people turned up using the excuse of preventing a third world war, as the vehicle for their federalist dreams of a super state. Maybe if the civilisation we have created lasts for a another thousand years there could be a case for some overriding international consensus on governance, but the time is not here and now

  Too many conflicting national interests stand in the way of a Federal Europe, it was never going to be anything more than a bridge too far.

Empire or Coalition?

 Let’s have a real debate. No holds barred

If Sir John Major’s comments on continuing Coalition government into the next parliament, have ignited debate, well that’s OK. But any kind of long term agreement with a party like the Lib-Dems, so dedicated to imposing European ideals on the UK. Would spell DISASTER  and well Labour, we’ve seen what that brings!

  Too many of these no-hope parties’ crackpot ideas have been leeching into the mainstream, on the back of the present agrangements, that it leads me to believe the lefties are out in force. Maybe the ones Sir John referred to in that infamous speech from the garden of No.10 which sealed his fate and that of Perfidious Albion or so it seems.

  There was no sound reason why he should have been defeated in ’97, when we stood on the threshold of a GOLDEN AGE. It was change for the sake of change, to sate the half-baked notions of a generation unacquainted with the worst excesses of Fabian Socialist Dictat. So inevitably the pendulum swept to the left and what a friggin’ mess it created, as the dolts who should never have been allowed access to piggy bank, got their grubby little mits in the national till and we all end up living on chuckey.

   In case you’re unfamiliar with the term chuckey it means live now pay later and the International Shylocks are rubbing their mits together with glee. All the incoming Coalition had to do was satisfy them there’d be no defaulting and it’s all systems go. Here we are six months on and it’s as if Helicopter Ben Bernanke had taken over the UK Treasury as well. The scattergun effect is in full swing, but you only benefit if you fall into the category of the ‘Chosen Few’.  If  you’re an MP or an MEP no worries eh! You’re on the gravy train again, it’s been backed off from the buffers and is ready to rumble.

   Absolutely nothing is being done about the Euro debacle as more and more of our precious taxpayer funded resources are used to bale out the lame ducks. States which in reality; should just be put out of their misery. We’re guilty of encouraging perceptions beyond their grasp. For none of them have an economy which is fit for purpose when it comes to standing alone.

  All these so-called independent states are nothing more than idealist spongers. They’ll never be able to cut the mustard without massive subsidies to match their giddy idealism. They will be a drain on the collective common purse of a putative European Federal Superstate forever and a day.

   If the world is to prosper a Big Brother State ruled by unelected, unaccountable Beurocrats, is not the answer. We should abandon the idea of being a subsidising Federal Superstate and let them founder, till they wake up to realism and stop trying to leap piggy-back style onto the back of an Impossible Dream. Quite obviously from present evidence it does not work on any kind of sustainable basis. It just drains away the lifeblood of sustainability on a tidal wave of HUBRIS.

   We should turn instead to the only people who can provide the real impetus for sustainability by organising Empire in the style of Perfidious Albion’s Empire building techniques.  Techniques which can now be seen to be a real world example of how it should be done, for it built the Greatest Empire the world has ever known, a century ahead of its time.

You know it makes sense!  Watch this space, I’ll be back.

Eye watering debts that linger on from the last Xmas Credit Binge

Far be it from me to say I told you so

Yep! It’s not just booze we’re bingeing on, it’s quite clear to anyone with an ounce of cokum that mostly things always get worse before they get better and economic activity has cycles, as bust follows booooom! So the fact that a General Election came along together with what now appears to be a risible attempt to fool all the people all the time. Which to some extent ameliorated the worst effects of the credit disaster, is probably the most significant factor of the last eighteen months of staggering from forecasts of eternal doom to a degree of sanity once more.

  Though why Dave & Co., continue to act like a bunch of scaredy cats every time anyone dares to challenge their way of deceiving the masses is quite distressing. It’s probably on account of this don’t scare the natives with talk of real world statistics mentality, amongst our present Masters of the Universe. Never before in the fiscal history of this United Kingdom has money been poured into the economy in such alarming proportion. Not real money I might add, funny money the stuff you can shuffle about playing Monopoly. Coloured pieces of paper embellished with fancy figures, run off on a printing press.

  In addition, it’s not clear yet how long it might take for this huge bounty to work its way through the system. But this it has to do so, before we can get back to reality. Mainly it was done in the first place to try and lull the generation who got us into this mess, with their bid for Nirvana (on the strength of their 2.00in x 3.25in pieces of plastic) into a sense of false security and persuade them to vote for more of the same.

  Patently it failed to do the trick, but in its wake it left a huge legacy of deceit and double dealing, the like of which was never before perpetrated on an entire generation. The most appalling thing is that the people who inspired this almighty confidence trick have been allowed to walk away scot-free and amass huge fortunes with even more trickery and legerdemain.

  They are the bunco artistes of this lost generation who will have to go on paying for years in much the same way as over two million are still paying off the debts of last year’s Xmas bingeing, twelve months on. It also beggars belief that it can take so long for the lessons to sink in and you begin to wonder just what it takes to make it sink in.

  It’s this sense of false security that is the most troubling. When! Oh when! Will we get a bit of commonsense and reality injected into the equation without the squealing chorus from the plonkers who caused all this mayhem trying to shift the balance of probabilities by their usual tactic of screaming equality and diversity at every opportunity. I was appalled to see the way Dave was jumping up and down and it made me wonder what really goes on his head.

  One minute Dave is claiming to be a Eurosceptic and the next minute he’s chucking our money about like a confetti-sprinkling Eurocrat in overdrive. Is he losing his marbles? Has the power gone to his head? For to all intent and purpose, it’s looking like a visit to Brussels has been enough to make him go native and that’s the last thing we need in present circumstances. It’s time to call the referendum we’re all lusting for Dave, before the men in dark suits come calling.

The Royal Wedding

If Prince William & Katherine’s first is a girl?

She could be his heir, regardless of gender, under a change to the laws of succession being considered by the Government: Reported Gordon Rayner, the Telegraph’s Chief Reporter 19 Nov 2010.

  The Cabinet Office said discussions had been held with Commonwealth countries that would be affected by changes in the laws of succession. Lorely Burt, a Liberal Democrat MP, has tabled a Commons motion calling on the Government to “end these outdated, sexist and anti-Catholic aspects of the constitution”. Typical Lib-Dem window dressing eh?

  Crikey me! The ink for the marriage certificate has not yet been manufactured and the chattering classes start banging on about such irrelevancies. Probably just to fill up their quota of parliamentary privilege or a spare acre of rainforest. So maybe it’s time to inject a bit of Tom Stack logic into the hysteria. Cool things down so to speak.

  All this hysteria about succession and we don’t even know if  blanks are being fired yet, so it’s wait and see time. It’s certainly not open season for under-employed hacks or MPs to don the speculation cap. Leave it BE or the boredom threshold might peak before you know it.

  The only bit of logic I can add personally to all this conjecture, is the age old Peter Smith Maxim. Pete was a man I met in the early days at the LHR Hatton Cross Engineering Base circa 1960 when a similar argument raged on a local level. A close associate’s wife had given birth to e new baby daughter and the discussion turned to what it takes to produce a boy or a girl.

  The female shape, we were reliably informed requires one more chromosome than the male form. So a man therefore could only proclaim himself a man if he produced a daughter. For a few brief moments that appeared to be the winning argument and the colleague concerned was grinning beatifically. He was a proud man, who in the full knowledge of his peers, had beyond any shadow of doubt, proved his manhood. Until that is Pete stepped up to the rostrum to deliver this killing aside:

  “Any fool,” he interrupted, “can knock a hole in a kettle, but it takes a craftsman to put the spout on.”

  So leave it orf you speculators, who want to push the equality agenda, there ain’t no such thing. Everybody ain’t made equal and you cannot legislate for this. As indeed you cannot legislate against attitudes of mind. For under the surface a volcanic eruption is forming and one day Matthew a bit of subduction happens and it blows.

  So for the time being progenitor rules OK! It’s stood the test of time and it didn’t stand in the way of our present arrangement. If ain’t broke, why try to fix it for the sake of a tiny minority who can’t come to terms with their underlying feelings of inferiority and learn to live with it.

When is a Gaffe, not a Gaffe?

And gaffe or not it turned out to be the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

Though after thirteen years of Laissez Faire economics, a lot of people who swallowed the bait hook, line and sinker can’t bear to hear a bit of factual evidence and a few home truths. But what really niggles, is these Fabian Socialist misfits lining up behind Dave to slag-off his Lordship, for nothing more than an insight into the approaching tsunami.

  Yep! Recession’s over so they say, though what his Lordship was getting at was the fact that we never really had one, for it hasn’t started yet. Just watch out, as inflation lets rip and the only way to stop it is to jack up the interest rate. The MPC is beginning to lean that way, if the minutes of their latest meeting are anything to go by.

  But with the new Labour zealots still in denial, do we really need a parade of these has-beens with nothing better to do, than to keep on ramping up the impression, that they really did know a better way? Jeff Randall exposed the fraud they were trying to perpetrate, in respect of cuts, when he published figures showing  gov’t spending was still on the increase, year on year. Though it’s now being managed without the profligacy, in a way the Market Makers are happy with.

   Heaven knows they need the gov’t to borrow more than anyone, for that’s what they thrive on, if only for the return on the investment funds, which pay their private pensions  The pension actuaries need it as much as we do, to keep on dishing up the ante post bets. Without a ready supply of gilt edged securities, we’d all be in big trouble. So effectively, all they need to know is that the gov’t ( in the words of General Mike Jackson) is ‘good to go,’ when it comes round to payday.

   So there you have it folks, no gaffe, just the plain honest truth. Dave’s raging on about nothing and dumping one of the few men with the nous to rumble what is going on. He should have stood up, took it on the chin and backed his Lordship for telling it like it is. Something this blog has always attempted to do, though I’m about up to the teeth with all these petty, scaremongering opportunists out to embarrass anyone they can get their grubby little mits on, just for the sake of  pseudo-political nit-pickin’.

  But why, oh why did  Dave have to make himself look so silly and he’ll look even sillier when his Lordship’s pigeons start coming home to roost, sooner than a lot of people think.

So that’s awight then! Now where’s the biscuits?
