Big Brother IS Watching You
From the Mail On-Line 28th December 2008
News today of schools bugging classrooms for pupils as young as four is revealed today and is further evidence that today's society is in the grips of the CCTV style, Big Brother 1984 syndrome.
The system, comprising of a video and microphone, can be used while lessons are taking place and can provide courtroom evidence of disruptive pupils, bullying and anything else that schools want to use it for.
Is this legal surveillance? The data protection watchdog, the Information Commissioner has warned that surveillance may be illegal and has demanded to know why schools are using this kind of sophisticated equipment to watch children. 'Proper justification is being sought from schools as to why this equipment is being used'.
Whether this is state sponsored bugging or just some over zealous, misplaced, money-minded sales-person selling the equipment to schools under the banner of security, it is the continuance of this very long wedge - spying on citizens of the UK.
It is only a step away from new buildings being built and installed, or retro fitted, with discrete surveillance equipment to spy on us.
If this equipment was being used in areas of 'high security' at entrance gates and doorways, this would be a different story, but in the classroom and 'private areas, hearing and seeing what anyone is saying is totally unacceptable and an intrusion to civil liberties.
Big Brother is certainly here, but how far will labours ex-communist politicians allow this to go? (Once a communist always a communist, the saying goes!!)

New Year 2009
Well the New Year will be here shortly -in a couple of days. The war/wars will still be here, although gordon brown says the Iraqi war will be over in the next couple of months, yeh right!
Our troops will come home, say hello to their families and give them a quick peck on the cheeks, if they get the chance and fly straight out on the next plane to Afghanistan, to support the ever number of troops on their ever courageous support for this ever cynical and communist government in the UK.
The downturn will be worse than 2008, there will be more businesses going bust and more employees on the dole, which the government will try and get back to work. It is said that this downturn will be even worse than during the 1940s'. But will the people in the UK be backing the labour government? They sure will as the life for the immigrant in the UK is better than in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Poland, etc and the rest of Europe put together, with its free hand out of money at the border and then being waved through the border by the hand of friendship from, you guest it, Indians, Pakistanis, Bangladeshies.......... There was a time when an immigrant had to work for 3 months before they could get a hand out in the UK. The English, with its own poor, will be going through this state sponsored poverty downturn with no food, no electricity or gas as we cannot pay the ever burgeoning bills, no jobs and no trust on the state sponsored terrorism paid by the English citizen for a war against Iraq and Afghanistan. Then gordon brown, the divine world leader, gives out money, which we can ill afford, millions of pounds to Pakistan and India to fight terror, which they may be sponsoring anyway, one can never tell.
The ever increase in state politics in the police must definitely be watched in 2009. The police with their increased powers under comrade blair and comrade brown, have made them brash and largely, it seems, uncontrollable and ever considered to be the thought police of this socialist establishment. You can see when they, the police, broke into the houses of parliament, the offices and home of Mr Green, an Opposition Politician doing his daily duty to inform on the government of the day. It now comes out that they videoed the events without asking the permission of Mr Green and parliament whilst ejecting an Opposition Member of Parliament trying to question the police as to whether they are over-stepping their jurisdiction.
That is enough of this rant for a few hours - see more soon

British Troops to Pull Out of Iraq
The government has announced today to pull our troops out of Iraq, to start from July 21st 2009. They say that the task, after nearly 6 years, is nearing an end and the Iraqi troops and police can, or will, be able to handle the situation by next year or shortly after.
The British troops will be reduced to 400 from the current 4,100 to allow for continuous training of their troops. With two more personnel killed, the total being 178, already this week and the many more personnel before them it is about time.
A memorial wall built in Iraq, that has the names of the British dead on it, will be dismantled and brought back to the UK so that families can have a permanent memorial over here.
I wonder whether it is all worth this sacrifice though. When the government is refusing to have an inquiry into how we were dragged into this war, only to find that the 'weapons of mass destruction' were not found after considerable searches by a special team sent to Iraq.
Will Iraq once again breed anarchy in the region and will Iran go in and incur their own brand of Islamic fundamentalism and women will have to have their faces covered, there will be no women and young girls going to school and their will be breeding of terrorists to spread death and destruction around the world.
Look out UK we have large numbers of Islamic Sleepers in this country, as can be seen by the Muslim doctor now imprisoned for 36 years for running a terrorist cell and trying to blow up various places around Britain including Glasgow Airport where his partner set himself alight because he didn't want to pay for his crimes but be blessed in 'heaven'.

Plane Stupid
I cannot condone the actions of Plane Stupid in disrupting passengers lives. I can understand that, environmentally, they have a point, but to delay hundreds of passengers in a dawn raid on Stansted Airport and stopping airport traffic, I just cannot condone.
One of the comments from a protester was that, 'Half of the passengers would be going on journeys that could be taken by other means'. How she knows this is anyones guess, but then how does she think that they would be travelling, by car, train? These forms of transport will know doubt be their cause one day and then where will we be.
Does make me think though, do these protesters go on holiday by plane, car or train, or do they stay at home twiddling their thumbs?

No Conviction NO DNA
The European Court of Human Rights has today given the people of England and Wales the best evidence ever that this government was on course to have a DNA and fingerprint database of every legal citizen in the UK, every illegal immigrant would get off lightly, for their own ends. The judgement means that if you are arrested and not convicted of any crime, your DNA and fingerprints, which are taken when you are cautioned and arrested on suspicion of having done a crime, must be immediately destroyed.
The case was brought by two men, after being arrested and their DNA was taken but not convicted, to the European Court of Human Rights after a decision by the UK High Court was thrown out in 2001.
Even after this judgement by 17 top Eurpean judges gave this verdict he Home Secretary Jacqui Smith said "The existing law will remain in place while we carefully consider the judgement." Which smacks of business as usual in this Communistic Labour Govenment and two fingers to the European Courts.
