Good job they’re in the minority

We’re always told that Islamic extremists are in a tiny minority, If that’s the case, why doesn’t a week go by when the papers aren’t loaded with stories about honour killings, stonings, murder by Taliban and similar outrageous claims.

Ahhh I hear you say, it’s probably just the Daily Mail stirring up racial hatred again – it seems to be quite a popular excuse among certain groups of our society who refuse to believe that the Muslims are capable of anything other an  outpouring of peace and love to all men (women, of course, are not included).

Good job then that this next story of religious intolerance, racial hatred and random violence was reported in the DM, otherwise, we might take it seriously.

Shame of Britain’s Muslim schools: Secret filming shows pupils being beaten and ‘taught Hindus drink cow p***’

• Undercover footage shows pupils being taught religious apartheid
• Muslims who adopt Western ways will be ‘tortured in afterlife’
• Unprovoked beatings captured on camera in Yorkshire madrassa
• Boy threatened with bench by senior student left in charge of class

It is an assembly hall of the sort found in any ordinary school. Boys aged 11 and upwards sit cross-legged on the floor in straight rows. They face the front of the room and listen carefully. But this is no ordinary assembly. Holding the children’s attention is a man in Islamic dress wearing a skullcap and stroking his long dark beard as he talks.

‘You’re not like the non-Muslims out there,’ the teacher says, gesturing towards the window. ‘All that evil you see in the streets, people not wearing the hijab properly, people smoking . . . you should hate it, you should hate walking down that street.’

[...]

We recorded a number of speakers giving deeply disturbing talks about Jews, Christians and atheists.

We found children as young as 11 learning that Hindus have ‘no intellect’ and that they ‘drink cow p***’.

And we came across pupils being told that the ‘disbelievers’ are ‘the worst creatures’ and that Muslims who adopt supposedly non-Muslim ways, such as shaving, dancing, listening to music and – in the case of women – removing their headscarves, would be tortured with a forked iron rod in the afterlife.

In 2009 this school was praised by Government-approved inspection teams for its interfaith teachings. The report said that ‘pupils learn about the beliefs and practices of other faiths and are taught to show respect to other world religions’.

It’s criminal to protect your own property..

After a (very) long break, we’re back to the blog and on the first day we start re-posting there’s a bumper crop of stupidity to report. First of all, we’re told have to search the cells of druggie prisoners “properly” (see below) and now, Police in Surrey are telling homeowners not to put mesh in the windows of their sheds and outbuildings as it might injure potential burglars.

I thought the Coalition Government was going to cut through the PC stupidity that’s destroying this country. Mr Cameron and Mr Clegg were supposed to right the wrongs imposed on us by the softie Labourites and put some balance back into our lives. Clearly, I was living in a fog off false hope…

(from the Daily Mail)

Don’t put wire on your windows – it might hurt burglars! Villagers outraged after police order them not to protect garden sheds

Residents in Surrey and Kent villages have been ordered by police to remove wire mesh from their windows as burglars could be injured.

Home owners in the villages of Tandridge and Tatsfield in Surrey and in Westerham, Brasted and Sundridge in Kent have said they are furious that they are being branded ‘criminals’ for protecting their property.

Locals had reinforced their windows with wire mesh after a series of shed thefts but were told by community police officers that the wire was ‘dangerous’ and could lead to criminals claiming compensation if they ‘hurt themselves’.

We’re really, really sorry you’re a criminal…

Impressive, it turns out if you’re found with drugs in your cell while doing prison time, the prison now has to apologise to you…

(From the BBC )

HMP Shotts told to apologise for cell drug search

Prison bosses were told to apologise to an inmate who was caught with drugs in his cell after an inquiry by the Scottish Public Services Ombudsman.

The prisoner was found with methadone, a heroin substitute, at HMP Shotts.

However, the prisoner, named as Mr C, complained that Scottish Prison Service (SPS) staff had “adapted” the policy on searching and testing for drugs.

His complaint was taken up by the ombudsman who found in the prisoner’s favour.

The ombudsman ruled that the SPS should put a policy in place for staff to follow when testing substances, take steps to make prisoners aware, remind staff to record search timings and “issue an apology” to the inmate.

The report into the investigation gave the SPS until 19 March to meet the recommendations and the apology was to be given by 2 February.

‘Failings’ identified

The complaint was raised in March 2010 after a search of the cell.

Staff said methadone was found in a cup after it was tested with a dip, similar to those used to test urine.

The prisoner was charged with a breach of discipline shortly after in the jail’s orderly room.

The report stated that the charge was sound but identified “failings” in the way the test was carried out.

The report continued: “I would point out that it is not my office’s role to question the grounds for placing Mr C on report nor is it my role to look at the decision reached in the orderly room.

“My role is restricted to considering the process that was applied, and followed, by the prison leading up to their decision to charge Mr C.”

Muslims are pushing us around again

I read some news stories today that once again made me mad. Not much new there, but I’m becoming ashamed to be British.  For we have no backbone any more – we have no pride in our heritage and our culture, for we are too busy trying to make sure we don’t upset anyone else.

For example, in today’s new I read about the head teacher of a primary school, who has been forced to resign from her job because she tried to bring all the pupils together for a single morning assemby.

First I was annoyed because of what has happened, and second I’m annoyed to find out that some schools have to separate the kids for assemblies in the first place.

Read the full story here.

How is it that the Muslim parents are allowed to complain and get away with pushing us around?

The second story that involves us being pushed around was concerning a woman who has fostered more than 80 children was struck off the register today because ‘she allowed’ a muslim girl to convert to Christianity.

This it seems was the girls choice, but because the woman didn’t try to stop her, she will no loner be allowed to foster children.  Isn’t that just madness?

Read the full story here.

Here’s what I think – if you are Muslim, and you don’t like the way people are in this Christian country – then you have the right to move to a country that supports your faith. So get on an airplane and go. Do not try to make our lives miserable because you can’t stand someone else having a different belief to your own.

We respect your faith – so why can’t you respect ours???

What happened to our schools

Britain is changing, our schools are changing and it’s not for the better.

I was dismayed to read a story today that gave statistics that now show 1 in 7 pupils aged 4-11 does not speak English as a first language, which apparently is over 466,000 children – This means that there are almost 600 primary schools where 70 per cent or more of youngsters normally speak a foreign language.

And what was more alarming was the fact that there are now ten schools in England where every single pupil in trhe school does not speak English as their first language.

I thought the government were supposed to be pushing for immigrants who don’t speak English as a first language, to ensure that they learn – after all if you live here full time – shouldn’t you learn our language?

NHS is squandering money again by paying the obese to lose weight!

When the NHS was set up all those years ago, I wonder if the person who did all the hard work realised that 60 years on the service that was designed to help everyone would be wasting it’s money on things that people could sort out themselves, and not spending their budget on actually helping sick people??

Today it was annouced that people who are overweight and obese will be paid to lose weight by the NHS!!!

Participants could win £70 if they lose 15lb, a further £90 for losing 30lb and another £265 to shed 50lbs  -  a total of £425.

Weights are checked once a month by a nurse in a GP surgery or an assistant at a pharmacist.

There is no time limit but patients will get only half the money for losing the weight. The rest is handed over if they keep it off for six months.

This is just outrageous!  People are being denied cancer drugs, alzheimer drugs and more because the NHS won’t give it to them, yet fat people who are perfectly capable of getting themselves thin get PAID!

Reviled for doing nothing … or something …

Today, I am officially confused and bewildered. By all accounts 14 British Muslim advisers have warned the Prime Minister that Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip had prompted “acute levels of intensity” in what is described as “their” communities (my first point of contention, I rather stupidly thought this country was one big community, I stand corrected).

Furthermore, the dire warning is that if Britian doesn’t act to change the US stance on military operations in Gaza there will be a violent Islamic basklash in the UK.

So, here’s my confusion; we’re despised and reviled for intruding in the affairs of Islam in Iraq and Afghanistan but when we decide to keep our noses out of things that don’t concern us we’re accused of not caring. Either way, someone representing said religion seems to want to kill us.

It’s a foregone conclusion that the Prime Jester will involve us in this religious ruck at some point in time – after all, Tony had a war of his own and the chance to divert attention from the, frankly, risible attempts to stop the ecomony from collapsing must be mouth-wateringly tempting.

Perhaps we could even print a few quid and send it over as a token of our esteem, though, being British, we’d have to give to both sides equally and that result in bad blood with the side that gets a fiver less than the other.

If this was 60 years ago we’d be wearing tin hats and sheltering in the underground, thanks to a wide variety of religious nutters, even that’s not safe these days…

What happened to the NHS???

Every day we are left stunned by the number of horror stories that fall across our desks on how badly the NHS is doing, how schools can no longer be called a school (apparently it’s a place of learning now!) and how our reckless government are trying to save us in the recession, but only seem to be making things worse.

It’s time to re-start this blog and document these stories, in the hope that the people of this once great country can see that over the last 10 years while Labour have been in power, they have systematically destroyed everthing that was once good.

From the lack of care in social services, the death of Baby P among other children as I hear that 4 children die a week at the hands of abuse, to the shoddy NHS service that we now have to suffer with, to the poor handling of the recession.

The stories that I read in the News just in the last few days that have shocked and alarmed me on the NHS (No Help Service) are as follows:

Starved to death in an NHS hospital: Damning inquiry highlights case of patient left without food for 26 days

Parents forced to make 350-mile round trips to visit premature triplets after they are placed in THREE different hospitals

Mixed-sex wards ‘blighting NHS’

NHS Trust where 270 died of superbug STILL making ‘serious’ hygiene breaches

Two young mothers die of pneumonia after medical staff tell them they only had flu

NHS patient error deaths ‘rising’- more than 3600 deaths this year!

Baby dies and seven others sick as bug infects neo-natal unit

Organs of 50 NHS donors are sold to foreigners who pay £75,000 for each operation

Thank you Popbitch

We are recipients of an email that is sent weekly called Popbitch. It’s mostly humorous gossip about celebrities who have usually been up to no good and don’t want you to know about it – the stories come from insiders and usually don’t make the news – however they also publish a few funny snippets here and there.

Today’s email had this – which just made me laugh:

>> Hitler v Brown <<

Pointlessly random comparison thingy

As we reel from Gordon Brown telling us he’s saved the world, and from countless commentators comparing the here and now with the 1930s,here’s a handy comparison chart between our PM and… Adolf Hitler.

* Adolf Hitler was once a chancellor
Gordon Brown was also chancellor

* Adolf Hitler only had one ball
Gordon Brown only has one eye ball

* Hitler was born on the 20th (of April)
Brown was born on the 20th (of March)

* Some people thought Hitler was gay
Some people gossiped that Brown was gay

* Adolf Hitler was in power during a recession
Gordon Brown is in power during a recession

* Hitler was known for his tantrums and sulks
Brown has been known to go into tantrums and sulk

* Hitler was born in Austria and became leader of the parliament in Germany
Brown was born in Scotland and became leader of the parliament in England

* Hitler’s name said backwards is reltih floda
Brown’s names said backwards is equally meaningless

Political correctness – the cancer within

So nurses have been told they cannot use  words like luvvie, pet or dear to address their patients.

This is the latest madness to emanate from the jobsworths who now occupy over paid positions in many of our major public services.

What is wrong with these people? Are we really offended when lying in hospital if someone calls us “love.” I for one regard it as a friendly, caring sort of greeting and have never met anyone who objects about the use of such words.

But then this is all part of the new speak which is steadily eroding our traditional ways of communicating with each other.

Yet those who seek to inflict this upon us are it seems actually winning, How many times these days do you pass a comment only to be told: “You can’t say that?”

We have got to the stage where we really do have people who use phrases like chemically inconvenienced (drunk) and uniquely co-ordinated (clumsy).
And they are the ones who through persistence and stealth are inflicting upon us ideas and actions that are both alien and frightening.
It’s called political correctness and its origin has been traced back to Chairman Mau of China’s infamous Little Red Book.
It is, of course, not just the way we speak that is under attack.
The latest trend is to destroy what remains of the great British Christmas.
Some cities have banned the name and refer to it now only as a Winter Festival.
This year Oxford has decided that traditional street themes – you know, Santas, reindeers that sort of thing – will be replaced by a 25-metre high mobile of lanterns in the shape of the solar system under the title of Winter Light Festival which will include events marking the Hindu Diwali and Jewish Hannukah festivals as well as Christmas. It also coincides with the start of International Year of Astronomy 2009.
Those who make these ridiculous decisions claim it’s to involve all sections and all religions yet in Oxford it’s brought criticism from muslims and a local rabbi.
But you can bet your life the interfering busybodies who want to tamper with every aspect of our way of life won’t give in easily.
For proof look what happened in  Scarborough a couple of months ago  when the local college decided Christmas and Easter  were “out” and replaced them  on calendars and diaries with “end of term break.”
And so it goes on
The PC brigade tell us  the ending of Humpty Dumpty is upsetting. And Snow White no longer has seven dwarfs.
Recent years have seen good old fashioned Punch and Judy shows banned in case they encourage domestic violence.
Council chairmen are now known only as “the chair” or “chairperson.” Manholes are now people’s holes,  school sports days are changed to ensure there are no winners or losers in case some kids get upset, parents  have been stopped taking pictures of their children so no-one can think they are paedophiles.
Even government ministers fall foul of the masters of newspeak.
Home Office minister John Denham was criticised by the police for using a well known phrase because of race relations rules.
He was told that officers could face disciplinary charges for saying “nitty gritty” because it dates from the slavery era.
I reckon it’s time to rebel, to fight back, to talk like we were taught to talk, to express ourselves in proper, simple, everyday English.
And start by telling those who try to force us to do otherwise in in equally understandable language to go to hell.
