The economies death spiral by George Osborne a history graduate who doesn't know history.

As the graph on this BBC article shows the economy was starting to recover in the end of 2009 then this coalition was elected and within six months started their policy off economic slash and burn AKA austerity.

The depression is continuing with the government trying to blame everyone and everything from the jubilee to the weather. Indeed they are blaming everything except their own incompetence.

History has shown us that Austerity has never worked from japans decades long recession to the great depression between the wars austerity fail and it fails massively. During the great depression Britain enacted austerity measures whilst Roosevelt instigated the new deal and invested in the USA as a result the united states climbed out of depression and became the worlds strongest economy whilst Britain remained in depression.  George Osborne as a history graduate should know this.

The only conclusion is that the Chancellor is trying to continue the recession and there can be only one reason for deliberately continuing the recession. In a recession even more money than usual is concentrated in the richest 1% which just so happen to include the chancellors tax avoiding family as well as a significant number of Conservative backers. It is quite clear that the Tories are now destroying the economy for personal gain.

Government sets out proposed orders to rename Asbos, still cutting police.

Thegovernment is proposing to bring in:

• A "community trigger" - to force the police, councils and other agencies to act if five households complain, or the same individual complains three times (so if your neighbour complains about you quickly get in three complaints and you win)
• A Crime Prevention Injunction - allowing agencies to protect victims from hooligans and vandals at short notice (useless without more police)
• A Criminal Behaviour Order - to stop convicted criminals from engaging in particular activities or going to certain places (AKA ASBO)
• A faster process to evict anti-social tenants (useless without more police)
• A faster process to deal with irresponsible dog owners (Useless without more police)

That is Theresa Mays grand scheme rename ASBOS bring in a easily abused and inflexible "trigger" system and a few other ideas that are useless in the face of police cuts. Theresa May you are a failure.

Nanny state

It's been awhile but I actually agree with David Cameron on something. Parenting classes is a very good idea and something that society hasneeded for a long time. Actually since Thatcher declared that there was no society and did what she could to destroy it. A tad ironic that one Tory PM tried to destroy society the other to recreate it, or at elast look like thats waht he is doing.

It does seem that whenever someone uses the "argument" nanny state against something it really means they have no real argument against and oppose it on principles rather than reason i.e. out of stupidity.

Message to William Hague Stop moaning and get a real job you overpaid hypocrite.

Someone who lives a privileged and easy lifestyle with minimum effort required has complained that others aren't working hard enough, what a hypocrite what a fool.

Rattled David Cameron loses the plot has mini temper tantrum at Ed balls.

David Cameron dubbed shadow chancellor Ed Balls "the most annoying person in modern politics" during angry Commons exchanges. "I wish the shadow chancellor would occasionally shut up and listen to the answer," said Mr Cameron. This is rather immature of the PM and is a classic example of not having answers to his questions. Rather than say "I wish the shadow chancellor would occasionally shut up and listen to the answer," answer him again if it is a good answer he will look bad. But by acting the way he did he ends up looking bad because it looks like he is avoiding the question. This is not way a Prime minister or national leader and certainly not a British one should behave. Ultimately he looked out of his depth and rattled, No Wonder Ed Balls was grinning at David Cameron’s reply.

MP’s narcissism and David Camerons poor judgement

The News of the World phone “hacking”* is still being discussed in parliament. Surely this is another example of MP’s Narcissism. The alleged hacking of MP’s phones is not something for the house to discuss until the police finish their investigation. If the investigation is unsatisfactory in its thoroughness or it is clear that phones where “hacked” but the police cannot prosecute because it is not illegal, Then it is time for a debate and new laws** not before. The cynical side of me thinks that certain labour Mp’s are trying to Pre-judge Andy Coulson and the News of the World to score a cheap political point.

I can have little sympathy for David Cameroon in all this, what on earth was David Cameron thinking appointing a tabloid editor as an advisor! They will always have undesirable skeletons in there closet especially as the news of the world is infamous for its creation of news rather than reporting it. He Clearley was never fit to hold the post of Director of communications. This is like appointing Libya to the UN human right watch dog or Tony Blair Middle east peace envoy. Ohh they did do those things, damn.

*The accusation against Coulson and the news of world are not technically hacking but I use the word for convenience.
** Reading someone’s private messages should always be illegal unless there is a genuine threat to the country and if there is it should be passed to the police before publication.

Tory peer acts like drunken chav

Today the Daily mail has a story about form Tory MP Lord Tebbit acting like a drunken chav. In what could be called the ultimate expression of Thatchers society of me Lord Tebbit objected to noise a Chinese new year parade was making. He objected by grabbing a drum being used in the parade and then kicked the rear of the dragon taking part in the parade. Unknown to Lord Tebbit he was actually kicking the backside of a child. Lord Tebbit Later apologised to the Owner of the Chinese restaurant that organises the Chinese new year parade.

I expect to see this sort of behaviour on TV shows like booze Britain. But for any to be acting like this is surely unacceptable and should be condemned by all, maybe I'm expecting to much from someone who didn't believe in society. This after all is no different from the me me me attitude of today's chavs and presumably he will be treated the same and arrested for assault on the child/dragon.
