It’s time for a rant, it changes nothing but by golly you feel much better afterwards or at least you ought to to. As I sit here compiling this list I am getting more and more irate. It has just been quietly announced that the muppet masquerading as Ed Militwat has now decided he will not be reducing our energy costs. So much for saving us £300 a year (that after an increase of thousands !) and he is jacking up the price of gas boilers because nobody wants his crappy heat pumps including, it is alleged, himself. His crazy push for net zero is killing us off. I suspect we will all be cold this winter and many poor devils will be dying from hypothermia.
We had a budget last year on October 30th, It was a once in a generation event to fix a mythical £22 billion black hole and was supposed to be fixing the foundations. We have now reached the stage where Robber Reeves is about to fix the mistakes of the past and is going to raise taxes massively. Much of the shortfall has been caused by her previous efforts so she is going to double down and make even more mistakes. The black hole this time is well north of £22 billion, some even say £50 billion. Some of this is because of lower growth prospects and nothing has lowered growth prospects more than her own actions.
Every time a minister speaks they just spout lie after lie. I believe the commoner formerly known as Prince Randy Andy has more credibility. Is it worth detailing the lies, I think not, they just lie for the sake of it. It is not only ministers who tell fibs, just about everyone on the left does the same.
Potato Head Ed Davey, a tribute act to the bumbling buffoon fat Turk if there ever was one, replied in the House to Nigel Farage’s bill to abolish our membership of the ECHR. He gave a longish list of the advantages of adhering to the ECHR but as far as anyone can see all of these advantages only apply to foreigners and illegals, not us. Any Brit who thinks we need to be a member of the ECHR should visit a phrenologist. While he was having his own rant old Potato Head omitted to mention his involvement with the Post Office Horizon fiasco where innocent sub postmasters were accused of theft when in fact they were innocent. Not only were they innocent, many, maybe all, were prosecuted and went to jail and some took their own lives. The Potato Head took substantial sums from the solicitors/lawyers who did the prosecutions and has ignored such to this day. A disgraceful excuse for a man but typical of our political class.
We have once again heard about Liz Truss crashing the economy, this has also been given as one of the reasons for the newest black hole, as if she did it deliberately. She has some faults but was defenestrated to make way for NikNak, the pesky injun WEF placeman. The present economic outlook is far bleaker than that faced by Liz Truss but there are no panicked calls to replace Keith or Rachel from Complaints. This may well be down to the fact that the Bank of England has not stitched anyone up, yet.
The 3I/ATLAS saga is attracting even more loonies. It is supposed to be hidden behind the sun but this has not stopped speculation about what it is up to. It is a cluster of UFOs, its chemical signature is like no other, it has been transmitting on various frequencies, it is headed this way, it is off to Jupiter, it is absorbing energy from the sun and so an. The best thing it can do is to continue on its merry way and leave our solar system as quickly as possible to shut these eejits down. I would remind everyone that this kind of thing has been going on since the universe began, it is only in the past few years we have the technology to actually spot it.
Sports are all over the place. The days when you look at any kind of fixture and can be reasonably certain your prediction would come true are history. They always say past form is no guide to future performance but seriously there are some really strange results in just about any sport you care to mention. I wonder if the bookmakers have been making alternative arrangements. I will not complain too loudly because the cult of Liverpool FC seems to be experiencing a bump in the road, on the other hand Manchester United are on the up. As much as I may appreciate one I am not a fan of the other.
The entitled arrogant ponce who was formerly a Royal Prince has been sent packing by his brother sausage fingers. If only the former Prince’s mother hadn’t indulged him things may have been different but I believe she saw how the “spares” ended up over the centuries and thought this was the way to keep him on the straight and narrow only it wasn’t was it. A firm hand decades ago might have kept him on the rails but it is hard to be sure. He is now in disgrace where he belongs. This along with our accession to the Common Market as was might end up as the biggest blots on her copy book; she is still hovering just below sainthood in the public’s eyes but considering her disastrous successor is that any surprise. Seeing as this was a rush job what horrific deeds are still lurking waiting for the light of day. We have just seen the story about 40 hookers during a few days in Thailand. The man must be riddled with every STI going.
Another infuriating thing is the Donald’s slavish devotion to Israel. Is it a matter of faith or is he being coerced into supporting the lunatic Netanyahu. I have no skin in the game but firmly believe the Palestinians are the absolute pits.
News comes that Keith wants ten years in Number 10. Heaven help us he has screwed up so much in just over a year, another 8 or so doesn’t bear thinking about. He always seems to cling on to power however much he has deserved the bum’s rush. It is obvious whoever runs this country wants to keep him in place, for now.
The invasion of this island continues at pace as the latest saying goes. Nothing, bar really bad weather, keeps the boats from the channel and hundreds turn up every day. I think it was Andrew Bridgen, though I may be mistaken, who filmed the confiscated dinghies and life jackets being loaded onto lorries and being transported back to France. The MSM has kept very quiet about all that. I believe it proves this government (and the previous ones) wants this invasion and is actively assisting it. Meanwhile Keith’s one in one out agreement with the frogs goes from bad to worse. The ones we send back, remember they are replaced by others, are left to their own devices in France and just get the next boat back over here. The Hokey Cokey has nothing on this dance. Those already here are busy raping and stabbing with impunity. Nothing ever seems to happen except lefty virtue signallers keep accusing the rest of us of being racist. Is that still regarded as an insult ? I just read that an Iranian who was deported and came back is still in this country, we are being mocked.
I am sure we all remember when the RNLI went woke. Blokey coffee mugs were out and crews were suitably subdued from anything macho. I now feel this was so that the RNLI could be turned into the gimmigrants taxi service using docile lefty crews. This invasion has been a long time in the planning and has succeeded beyond their wildest dreams.
Prince Andrew having his titles stripped must have been heard in Montecito with trembling. The principle has been established. I can’t see sausage fingers doing the same to his own son but this king has done it to his brother. When he sits on the throne and it won’t be long now, William is more than capable of doing it to his own brother, la Sparkle will never be forgiven for her treatment of Kate. The sight of the Sparkles at the LA Dodgers game was more than enough. They were roundly booed because they had displaced local hero Magic Johnson among others in the VIP section and they are not very popular anyway. The Halfwit appeared wearing Dodgers gear when the other team was the Toronto Blue Jays, you know Toronto in Canada of which his father is head of state. The halfwit really is a plonker. The Blue Jays are now only one win away from the title, I do hope they get it in the next game – only they didn’t. The decider of the best of seven series will be on Sunday morning our time.
In the US Operation Arctic Frost has been kind of ignored by the MSM. This was where the Biden administration, OK it was really Obummer’s, decided to use every means possible to spy on what it saw as its Republican enemies. All of this was totally illegal but whereas Watergate dragged on for months if not years, this scandal has been largely ignored by the Democrat Party’s pets in the meejah. Yet another disgrace in the history of the MSM, or at least the last century or so. With the rigged election of 2020 being investigated and now this they are going to run out of investigators and prosecutors over there. I just saw that the DHS has shut down 150+ police stations in Arizona because their cops had taken the cartel’s shilling. If we are lucky the entire corrupt and lefty populations will be in Gitmo. Speaking of Obummer it seems he has been visiting Number 10 on a regular basis recently. One wonders what he is up to or is the Starmer administration Bath House Barry’s puppet as well.
I get the sense that it was all Obummer behind this. He was famously paranoid about spying on people even before he was elected President. It is odds on that he was pulling the strings when Creepy Joe was supposed to be in charge so spying on as many Republicans as possible would be something he was quite capable of.
Every time a British company is taken over by the injuns it suddenly is about to go bust and in need of at least a billion in subsidies to keep afloat. JLR is but the latest in quite a long line and the Treasury keeps on bailing them out terrified about job losses. As a rule, all production and jobs in this country will be shut down fairly quickly and the work transferred to a country where their streets double as toilets. This assumes the company survives the ministrations of said injuns because JLR is on its last legs after going woke. What on earth were they thinking, Ratner had nothing on these clowns. This is up there with Gillette.
My final rant is British Summer Time. The clocks changed back nearly a week ago and though I am retired my internal clock is still all over the place. It was started in 1916 allegedly in response to the Germans doing much the same. There was a fear they might experience some kind of industrial production advantage from it, that part courtesy of the old curmudgeon himself – Peter Hitchens. We already tried without it between 1968 and 1971, as a teenager I vaguely remember daylight until about 10:30 or even later but it is rather vague. The results were inconclusive they say but I always heard about Scottish hill farmers complaining bitterly. Find me a farmer who doesn’t complain. It is reported that traffic accidents in the morning were up but those in the evening were down, the result overall being fewer accidents. The number of accidents in those days was much much higher than now (drum brakes vs disks ?). As I look in Stickypedia it seems DST is now subject to a European Directive. All the more reason to scrap it. The silly dagos still run on Berlin time when they ought to be GMT, I leave the frogs to their own devices, they hate GMT with a passion feeling that it should have been Parisian Standard Time. This was one of Franco’s very few concessions to Adolf back in WW2. They can stick their UTC nonsense where the sun don’t shine.
