LONDON MOST CORRUPT FINANCIAL CITY

It had been stated, several times, that London is the most corrupt financial city. What can be done to clean it up and who starts the ball rolling? It will definite not be the fat cats which have no intention of paying their taxes. 

The newly 'elected', by a coup, PM Johnson corruption has even gone worse. They hand out untendered contracts, no debate in the HoC, each worth £mlns with no repayment clause if it wasn't fulfilled. Most of them are not given the full service.

It wasn’t to be PM May and her Tory Government although she kept giving speeches about getting tough with tax avoiders. 

Cameron as a PM even went so far and called a Global Meeting to stop Corruption. He accused Nigeria as the worst, openly, but when the President pointed out that the City withholding a fast amount of money without reason Cameron did not reply. Cameron also held several speeches of stopping Tax Avoiding but at the same time  he reduced the staff at the Treasury investigating Tax Avoiding.

Roberto Saviano an anti-mafia journalist said: “London is the heart of global financial corruption. All managed by Rich and Elite Tories and Tax Avoiding Friends which became UK to be known as the most corrupt place on earth.”

Well, that is something to be proud of to achieve that.

Saviano wrote a book exposing Neapolitan, Camorra and Mafia and pays for it by living under armed police guard for over 10 years.

He explained that it is not UK bureaucracy, police or politics, the last I personally would have objection, but what is corrupt is the financial city. 90 per cent of the owners of capital in London have their headquarters offshore.

In his opinion, leaving EU there is a hidden danger which would reduce the joint attempt to fight illegal economies. He pointed out the Qatari society, Mexico cartels, Russian Mafia to gain more power.   

He added that there is proof and evidence that today, the criminal economy is bigger than the legal economy, drug trafficking overshadows the revenue of oil firms. Cocaine brings in £300bn a year. Criminal activities have no rules and like the Mafia are highly organised crimes do not respect the rules of law as most of the financial companies who have offshore residence.

Saviano remembers how he felt writing the book that led to the Camorra to warn him they would kill him.

He said: “In my lifetime 4,000 people have been killed in Naples and surround by the Camorra, but when I was younger I did not have a clear perception of the criminal power that ruled that area.”

His eyes were opened and his mind was changed at a murder of a priest. He was 30 years old and shot in the face because he spoke against the Camorra.

Saviano said: “For the love of my people I will not keep quiet in the face of a dictatorship run by the Mafia.  He called it a totalitarian power within a democracy and wrote an essay denouncing them.”

Saviano’s life changed completely since he wrote his book. There were many books written about the Mafia but what Saviano done wrong was to name names and stating facts exposing people in the Camorra and their actions.

He is now followed by two bullet-proof cars and has five officers to protect him. Sometimes, he feels guilty to bring other people into danger. He lived like that for 10 years.

His advice is not to take freedom of expression for granted and pointing out to brave Malala Yousafzai who was shot by the Taliban at 15 years because she campaigned for the right of girls to be educated. According to Saviano Taliban are the world’s biggest heroin traffickers and make a fortune. Yet, they tried to stop a 15 year old who spoke up for women and girls to go to school.

TORIES LOOK INTO YOUR MIRROR

SUMMARY and what do you see? UK is the second largest arms dealer in the world. The largest is the USA. No wonder these two stick together!

“You are the terrorists.

“You attack other countries on an obscure raft of lies

“You occupy, subjugate, rob and ruin them.

“You bomb civilians with our air force

and with guided missiles.

“You sell arms to totalitarians.

“You fund the military of dictators.

“Its way past time that you recognized our own behaviour, stopping abruptly and begged forgiveness, paid for our crimes and declare peace.

“Not a chance of course.

“Instead you’ll make our poor pay for a new generation of nuclear weapons to terrorise other human beings with the threat of sudden mass destruction.

“See the extremist in the mirror.”

A summary of very true words copied from Twitter with some changes. Hopefully the author does not mind but the summoning up so very true, it was worthwhile to spread it.

Every ordinary man and women would agree with it but the politicians who are never at the spot of bombing and destruction. They are safely away, living a life of luxury, playing armchair generals and couldn’t care less how many innocent lives get destroyed as long it is profitable for them. 

PM May has sold arms to
£4,8m Afghanistan
£7,5m Colombia
£0,9m Burma
£1,3m Uzbekistan
£124m Iraq
£4,4m Turkmenistan
£135,000 Syria
£26m Pakistan
£1m Zimbabwe
£155m Israel
£335m China
£266m Russia
£240m Turkey
£1.6m Somalia
£1.2m South Sudan
£4b South Africa

Altogether arms deals were made to 22 out of 30 most repressive regimes

USA are masters of ruin and destruction with a record of 34 countries illegally invaded since the 50s with the UK supporting most of them.

If that isn’t war crime and terrorism, what is? 

The other point, where is the money going to with all these billions of arms deals, austerity, welfare cuts, NHS and schools cuts, homelessness because people can't pay the rent any more and most of them are working people?

The National debts has increased to £1,8trillon despite of all the cuts. sales of weapons, big companies deals and is the highest for 67 years. What is really going on? What happened to all that money?

Somebody must be siphoning off by the billions of pounds.

The most dedicated Tory could not vote for them and see the country and its people going down. What happened at GE2017? My opinion is that the result was half of it a fiddle somewhere; after all the deprivations imposed for the last six years.

Furthermore, the GE19 has 'won' Boris Johnson a 80 seats majority which highly disputable and given uncontrollable power. It is an open secret that it was a fiddle and coup but no powerful organisation or general public seem to stand up and bring them down.

He messed up Covid and did not a proper organised Test/Trace from January 2020 onwards but handed out untendered contracts to 4 big Corporations costing £22bln but were never followed through and the contracts had no pay-back clause. He did not buy sufficient PPE and Ventilator right from the beginning. So far 81,000 people had to die because of Johnson's disorganised shamble and his friends only cashing in.

 

PEOPLE PAY THE PRICE FOR USA AND UK POLITICS

SUMMARY  USA started a war in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria with UK support. Altogether over 34 wars and illegal invasion since WW2

A report claimed Theresa May, as Home Secretary, supplied USA with weapons when they started to attack Syria. It also points out that it is the root of the trouble for todays’ terrorists attacks.

Boris Johnson came into power as PM when T May resigned and was voted in with a 80 seats majority which is still disputed. He started to sell weapons to Saudi Arabia used in Yemen. 

Despite of it all, they still will not withdraw from Syria. USA is, as always, in a fine position because it is too far away for any revenge and has a very strict border control.

The UK border control has been out of control for decades and can be blamed on the ex-Home Secretary Theresa May. It was contracted out as Border Agency and for decades people kept complaining about it but Theresa May did nothing. She even did not expel the Hate Preachers which cost taxpayers a fortune on keeping them in big houses with their huge family and court cases.

Theresa May and David Cameron have a lot to answer for in that respect but they sit back in all their luxuries paid by taxpayers while innocent people get killed and maimed for live.

Giving big speeches, after every event, about how sorry they are, is not good enough. They got to stop supplying weapons to countries which support ISIS to keep the people safe in the UK.

PM May kept selling arms to USA and Saudi Arabia which both support the IS. They are double-dealing by bombing, killing innocent men, women and children, and supplying arms to IS. Stop supplying arms and confiscate their bank accounts would be far more effective.

Cameron was caught out that he flew RAF bombers to Syria despite MPs voted against it. His flat excuse was they flew under the command of the USA.

In the second vote of supporting the USA fighting the IS in Syria he cornered and conned Jeremy Corbyn into giving Labour MPs a free vote instead a blanket vote which he intended to. This gave Cameron the majority and now people in the street are paying for it.

To cover their tracks, they are pointing constantly to Russia. Whether they do the same is hard to know but you should not point fingers if you do it in the first place.

However, what emerged when Russia decided to support Assad was that USA did not bomb the so-called “moderate terrorists” which were on their site. USA went into a great uproar when Russia bombed them as well as IS.

UK has the “fame” of being the second largest arms supplier but nothing is said about that. It also makes us question where does all the money go?

 According to PM May and ex-PM Cameron the UK is in a financial strain and austerity was introduced, NHS, schools and Welfare funds had to be cut. Again, a new £12billion Welfare cut was put through by PM May from 1^st April, 2017. For seven years the country had austerity, welfare cuts and cuts in funding the NHS, schools and councils and not a penny reduced in deficit. What is going on? Something is not right! 

These Arms Deals mean trillions of pounds every time! So why is the country in financial trouble, at the same time added £700,000,000 National Debt totalling £1,7 trillion and is the highest deficit for 67 years. Under Johnson it now reached £2trillion and it was before Covid. It bound to have increased with the present crises.

What is really going on financially and causing more trouble for the people on the street by wrong policies.

LONDON DIRTY MONEY

SUMMARY  A report issued on BBC News Online spoke about London’s Dirty Money and finding a way to stop it.

MPs trying to put through a legislation, urgently, to stop oligarch, drug barons, smugglers, all who made a fortune in illegal dealings damping their dirty money on London by buying top luxurious properties.

An earlier report stated that most of these properties are left empty or rented out to super rich people for high rents. This again points the fingers to what could be illicit gained wealth.

If MPs manage to achieve it, it would a great achievement. After all they take on one of the most powerful people who are corrupt politicians, oligarch with astronomical wealth not all gained by legal means, smugglers and drug barons. Most of them are international and have powerful lawyers behind them.

The situation had been highlighted by the revelation of the Panama Papers.

In some way, Conservative Boris Johnson who was Mayor of London at the time when London had been responsible of the fundamental change. Whole rows of houses which were owned or rented by ordinary people were demolished and a great number of skyscrapers mushroomed all over London. It changed the skyline of London completely.

Skyscrapers with most luxurious properties which only can be afforded by the wealthiest people. Another point has to be mentioned here that these people, although they might make some of their money in London but will not spent it in the UK. They only invest it in top properties to squirrel their money away but if forced to sell they will take it out of the UK. So, where was the gain of it all?

Therefore, it was a foolish dream to attract people like that by building ugly skyscrapers which do not represent London or Britain but can be found everywhere in the world.

OLD LONDON

London which had attracted millions of tourists because it still showed the bygone age of the British Empire had been spoiled or destroyed. Even local people are scarcely to be found because of being moved out of London for the glass palaces to be built.

Boris Johnson is now a MP for Uxbridge and South Ruislip has already changed Uxbridge with another lot of glass palaces and concrete blocks. Previous MP kept the characteristic of a rural suburb with building of red bricks. They were demolished and replaced with higher, but not skyscrapers, buildings all with glass.

Boris Johnson must have shares in glassworks.

CITY SAID NOT TO FEAR BREXIT

                                                                     

Common sense already tell us not to fear a break-away from Brussels. Britain was always a free trading nation and will be again.

Axel von Schubert, director of Euro-Caribbean Management Service and chief executive of JP Capital Investments has surely more knowledge than many to voice an open and honest opinion.
He mainly points out that first of all the UK will save billions of pounds from not supporting huge EU related regulation.

95 per cent of UK firms do not export to EU but elsewhere. Axel von Schubert admits there will be a short period of turbulence but followed by big benefits and savings to the UK. Stopping EU regulations, fraud and waste of money will benefit UK with billions of pounds.  It would save the UK being made paying  for failing EU schemes such as the euro.

Already in 2006 the EU Commissioner Guenter Verheugen said "The cost of EU regulation was £600billiion, while the  benefits of the Single Market amounted to "£160billion. Therefore, the costs exceeded the benefits by £440billion."

Another example, in 2012 Italy had to pay £307million back after a fraudulent scheme of a motorway but was for the Mafia. This scheme was found out but how many are not? Brussels is notorious for corruption and waste of money.  Auditors have not signed their account for 15 years because of £100billion are missing.

After the Brexit the UK can set its own financial regulation which will bring London back as an international financial powerhouse.

UK exports to the EU is slowing down from 55 per cent to 45 per cent in 2002 and continues to shrink. As the rest of the world markets are growing faster.

Remain campaign sending fear signals of threads of trade wars and risk of UK trade international.  The reality is that 28 countries forced together by tyrannical Brussels regulations show most of them are practically bankrupt. It would be an economical disaster in the long run. A strong pound and a  falling euro will make exports impossible.

The 19 EU members in the eurozone and five are  to follow will force economical stronger members to provide further astronomical sums to aid the new eurozone members and this will backlash into further euro's decline.

Axel von Schubert finalises his very informative report by hoping UK votes for Brexit. After a turbulent renegotiating liberal trade agreements with the EU to avoid high tariffs on UK exports the UK will be one of the EU largest trading partners and therefore have a strong incentive.

The UK has a massive trade deficit with the EU but a surplus with the rest of the World therefore the UK could be EU's single biggest Market.

MR HISCOX CALLED MR CAMERON CAMPAIGN CORRUPT

My opinion: A true and honest statement from a man who has been in the city for 43 years and with Lloyds. It stands out amongst all the other wild statements which we know it is not quite true but have no knowledge to disagree completely.

City grandee Robert Hiscox started a full frontal attack on David Cameron's campaign.

He called it "corrupt" and accusing Treasury of disseminating "illegal propaganda".

Mr Hiscox, chaired Lloyds of London insurer Hiscox for 43 years until 2013 and is still a honourable member of the board.

He said: "The part the Government has played in the debate is astonishing, Their corrupt statements and illegal propaganda pouring out is something to behold, especially the Treasury documents."

His statement was backed by Tory peer Nigel Lawson and Norman Lamount, both longstanding politicians and ex-finance ministers, when contradicting the Treasury analysis predicting a severe economic shock as a result of Brexit.

Mr Hiscox added further: "The City Institutions support Britain to remain is the EU form part of a "Elite" that are acting in their self-interest.

"All the experts coming out for Remain are a part of the Elite, from Goldman Sachs downwards, they've all bought into it, it's for their own-interest.

"I'm astonished when I meet people from Remain. I'll never understand why they want, in a global race, to tie the UK to 27 other countries, some of which have no legs.

"Why do we want to have millions of rules delivered by an unelected tyrannical elite in  Brussels?"

It is the first time Mr Hiscox has his opinion on the European Union openly stated after signing an open letter supporting Brexit with 300 other business leaders and you bet they are one of the most powerful in the City.

EUROPEAN COMMISSION PRESIDENT JEAN CLAUDE JUNCKER ADMITS

European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker admits: " We are no longer respected in our countries when we emphasise the need to give priority to the EU."

Matthew Elliot, chief executive of the Vote Leave group, said: "Even the Eurocrats admit the EU isn't working for Europe.

"Juncker should have added that Brussels costs too much - £350million a week for British taxpayers.

"On June 23 we can kick out the unpopular and hapless EU President and instead spend our money on our priorities."

================================================

PLEASE BE SO KKIND AND CLICK ON ADVERTS. THANK YOU

========================================================================= 

Tory MP Craig Mackinlay said: "Jean-Claude Juncker is right that the EU is unpopular and too interfering, it lost respect.

"He also forgets to mention that it costs too much - not least due to his £250,000-a-year salary - and is incapable of dealing with global challenges such as the migration crisis.

"That is why it would be safer to say goodbye to Euro fat cats like Jean-Claude and his meddling EU judges."

Mr Juncker adds further at a meeting of the Council of Europe: "The European projects had lost parts of its attractiveness. One of the reason EU citizen are stepping away from the Europe projects is the fact that we are interfering in too many domains of their private lives.

"We were wrong to over-regulate and interfere too much in the lives of our citizens.

"Voters were repelled by the thread of expanding Brussels powers.
"Its true we are not very popular when advocate for Europe."

At the same time Mr Juncker refused to answer a question from Tory Kelly Tolhurst about what the EU were doing to cut costs.
This fact already proves that the glorious sounding words were nothing but words.

Of course, Mr Cameron hooked in straight away and turned it to his advantage with points which were not there if you read it probably and in between the lines.

David Cameron spokeswoman said: "What you have seen the President pointing out is the need for the European Union to focus on areas where it can add value and not over-interfere. That is something we have been calling for for a while."

The truth is that if Mr Juncker meant what he said Mr Cameron would not have had such a hard job to get the changes he wanted. Even those almost unimportant points were watered down and soon, after his return, it was announced that it can be torn up any time. It is not legal because it was not registered in Strasbourg at the court.

Therefore do not be blindfolded by his sudden admission of over-interference. When Mr Junker should have interfered to ease or solve the migrants crisis he sat back and never lifted a finger but he asked for Britain to pay £500million to give the Turks a £4,2billion.
Already Brussels promised a tsunami of new regulations if UK stays in the EU. It proves the thick nerve and brazenness of Brussels.

EU needs the UK for its £19billion membership fee and various others contributions like the recent £500million. It has also a high import of goods to the UK. The opting out of the EU could also have a domino effect on the rest of the countries.

It is the only reason for the honeyed words from Mr Juncker and it will be a difference when the UK votes "Yes". If these words were true Mr Junker and his MEPs would not have over-interfered in the first place. Surely they are that intelligent enough to realise it would backfire but they ploughed on.

The years people were complaining about the fishing quotas and other ships fishing in British waters because of the restrictions but Brussels never eased the rules.

The situation with ECHR overruling British Law constantly and not because it made more sense on the contrary it made less.

By now Brussels rules the UK so much so do not buy Mr Juncker's words. He just wants to swing it into a "yes" vote in the eleventh hours.
　

NUCLEAR POWER STATION HINKLEY UK Update 7 Dec., 2017

Nuclear Power Stations nobody wants but must be an advantage to the 'Elite'.

Update 7 Dec., 2017 -- A great protest broke loose when it was found that the French contractor EDF, May couldn't give it to UK people, wanted to spill the contaminated sludge into the Severn Estuary. 

Update 20 Sept., 2016 -   New Prime Minister Theresa May visited China and gave the go-ahead for the Hinkley Plant to be build. She ignores the wishes of the British people who do not want it. China will use 80,000 tons of their steel while Mrs May does nothing to save British Steel and 15,000 jobs and its widespread effect in their family and communities.

UPDATE: 29 April, 2016 -- The Chernobyl disaster, 30 years ago, now revealed if 5,000 men had not risk and paid with their lives a second disaster would have happened and destroyed the whole Western Europe. Clever boys of the Tories ignore all that lesson and warning.

Even now there are thousand of men working there to put a new cover over the second reactor and will die of contamination, a very cruel death.

UPDATE  28 March, 2016 -- Amongst all the news coming out from Belgium a kidnapping was planned of the chief executive of the Belgium Nuclear Power Station to be able to attack.  It was prevented by Intelligence Information being picked up. The outcome would be unimaginable and also shows to what extent terrorists are willing to go.

This is another reason why UK Hinkley Nuclear Power Station or any others should never be built because one day one of them will succeed. The impact would be enormous and devastating.  Nuclear Power is too powerful  too be handled by  humans.

PM David Cameron is determined to have the Nuclear Power Station Hinkley built.

Millions of pounds are being spend on a project nobody wants. Taxpayers'Money which could benefit the poor and disabled.

It will use 80,000 tons of Chinese Steel. Steel which would save the British Steel Industry

This week there will be a debate in the House of Commons and Greenpeace is running a petition to stop the building of Hinkley.  Greenpeace chief scientists Dr Doug Parr will be present to give evidence.

It needs your help to sign the petition to put pressure on the Government to stop the project.

It is surprising, when you think about it, that the previous Governments stopped coal fired power station to cut pollution. Now, Mr Cameron signed contracts with the Chinese Government and the French EDF to build a nuclear power station. The waste of it would be far higher in polluting the earth. It would not break down for at least 500 year if then.

Building the Hinkley Nuclear Post Station requires 80,000 tones of steel and is provided by China while British Steel Industry is closed or sold to another foreign buyer. Mr Cameron is not willing to intervene to prevent 40,000 steel workers to lose their jobs.

Part of the contract with China must be to dump cheap steel on England's soil while Mr Cameron will not help British Steel but let it be destroyed. Mr Cameron gave a contract to EDF to produce electricity and run the plant.  EDF is French owned and belong to the French Government; in other words Mr Cameron pays the French Government money which is urgently needed in the UK 

There should also be a lesson learned from the Russian Nuclear Power Station accident and from Japan which still spills nuclear waste into the Pacific Ocean and the land is totally contaminated for centuries to come.

The Pacific Island Bikini where the USA experimented with 67 nuclear bombs in the 1950s  is still polluted plus the water around it. The US Government reassured people of being safe and to move back in the 1980s.   It only took a very short time and them complaint of indigestion problems which turned out to be cancer.

Why does the Government not see the sense to put solar panels on most of the roofs which will not cause any pollution and gives more than enough electricity?  The reason is that the shareholder in the six energy suppliers would lose their dividends which includes politicians and will never do.

GREAT DANGER OF WWIII - 27 Sept., 2017

Update 27 Sept., 2017 --
By now the danger of WWIII intensified so much that it could start any minute.

USA threatened North Korea with destroying there country completely because of their constant rocket tests. NK took it as an opening to a declaration of war against them of which Kim-Jung-in was only waiting for to justify his tests. President Trump walked right into the net.

China and Russia, who on the side of NK, warned of caution and wanted negotiation with NK but USA refused and went ahead with threatening a confrontation. We are not facing a war brewing but a possible nuclear war and therefore Russian's suggestion was wise and sensible.

PM May already announced that she is willing to join the USA!

Again the UN cancelled a PEACE TALK SUMMIT  in Geneva. A Peace Talk for Syria urgently needed because every day innocent people die or get displaced and the danger of WWIII grows daily.. 

Analysis’s regularly asses a situation where Russia seeks to exploit tensions in the Baltic and tests NATO strength. While the scenario created by strategists from inside the War Room focus on East Europe concern over a potential flashpoint in Syria between Russia and the West are never far away.

Air forces of the USA, Russia, Turkey and Syria have been flying attacks against rebels' forces of Syria and Russia and so-called Islamic State.

The UK flew a limited air strikes attacking IS.

It is now feared because of the great number of attacks that their could be  indented or unintended accidents and the Allies could find themselves in a much bigger war.

US and Russia have been holding talks to prevent this to happen and spark off a full confronting with each other.

Already last November tension was mounting because Turkey shot down a Russian passenger airline. Turkey claimed it entered their airspace which Russia denied.

In Eastern Europe, the UK decided to play a bigger role in 'highly readiness’ of NATO forces. In 2016 the UK will send 1,000 troops and in 2017 RAF Typhoos jets will join the “air policing” in the region. It will be the biggest re-enforcement defence since the end of the Cold War.

Mr Putin, President of Russia, stated months ago that in his opinion the IS is not the biggest danger to World peace but NATO.

It seems he got a point.

NATO gives the impression that it is a collective force for Europe but let us not close our eyes that it is commanded by the USA

It is strange that according to history of the two World Wars it always started in Eastern European and Russia was drawn in.  Russia never was the aggressor and history should now teach the warlords who instigated all this and sit back in their mansions profiting from the arms sale. Will it be again the same?

Russia was three times attacked and defeated mainly by their harsh winters. Whole armies perished.

Now could Russia's enemies hope to rise again with their modern weapons to conquer it? Russia is such an enormous big country and their severe winters even if the US and West defeat it it will be turn into endless civil wars like all the other countries US invaded.

USA should be looking right back to the 50s.  Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam the US never defeated them despite carpet bombing.

Hungary, a riot was caused against Russian occupation. When the Hungarian people were surrounded by Russian tanks and called for help for hours the Western instigators were nowhere to be seen because it would have ignited  another war. After that the country was in a worst state.

Iran, a riot was said to have been started by giving students money to go onto the street. The Shah and his family had to flee the country. Mosaddeq was expelled from Iran by the Shah and lived in Paris. He returned and turned a free country into a very strict Muslim country. Iran cut ties with the Western World, was isolated and sanctioned for decades. CIA documents admit they were involved in the coup.

Lebanon, Libya, Afghanistan, Iraq were all invaded under the cover of introducing democracy, heavily bombed, and wrecked. They are divided now and civil wars are raging everywhere.

Ukraine, because the USA did not agree with Crimea annexing even after a vote from the people; the Ukrainian president was ousted and a new president put in his place.

Russia is suctioned which the West can ill effort. Ukrainian  country is divided and in East Ukraine the people fighting supported by Russia. Ukraine is the second biggest country in Europe and was peaceful.

This article has nothing to do with being anti or pro USA or Russia. There are just facts from history.

SOME LABOUR PARTY MPs VOTE AIRSTRIKES 2016

After the turmoil of voting for air strikes in Syria the upheaval has still not settled down.

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn was, to some extent, cornered and had to give the MPs a free vote instead of a “coalition”

Mr Corbyn was totally against any air strike in Syria or elsewhere and it would have been better if the UK stayed out of it.

While PM David Cameron was itching for months to get involved but the MPs voted in 2013 against any military intervention. Now the IS has threatened to attack the UK after Mr Cameron won the vote this time. Everyone was aware of the risk but Mr Cameron ignored it and the result is that the whole country is on tender hooks and full alert.

There were 66 Labour MPs voting for air strikes in Syria. Mr Cameron did not give his MPs a free vote and therefore there could have been a number of Tory MPs who would have voted  against.   Mr Cameron knew that if he would have his ways after he manoeuvred Mr Corbyn into letting his MPs having a free vote. Sly Mr Cameron had the RAF already flying air strike, under the cover of the USA, in September 2014, even though the NO vote from the MPs still stood.

Now coming back to the Labour MPs.  It seems that the criticism kept increasing even so Mr Corbyn was elected by a majority. Mr Corbyn made it clear, from the start that he is against any war and the Trident program which cost £167billion to update with nuclear weapons.  It is obvious to anyone that these weapons can never be used but Mr Cameron covers it up with “security to the country”.  

This argument split not only the Labour Party but also some Tory MPs are against Mr Cameron who wants to be in the EU.

Mr Corbyn also wants to end austerity, stop the £12billion Welfare cut, Tax credit cut and also cancel the H2S train another £100billion project finally, make no mistake. In view of those cuts the £12billion Welfare cut is not necessary.

Again Mr Cameron and Chancellor George Osborne trying to justify their plans with bringing down the debts and the deficit again.  Have we not heard that in the last five years? The result was austerity brought people down to rely on food banks and they did not bring down the debts but increased it by  £500billion. It was the most brazen, bare-face lies of politics and now they repeating it.

The critics and atmosphere in the Labour Party became so strong that Mr Corbyn saw no alternative but to reshuffle, not as much as should have been done in my view, his cabinet.

It makes one wonder if those MPs who all of sudden criticise Mr Corbyn very strongly, are not Blairites and therefore Thatcherites? After all ex-PM Tony Blair eventually dropped his cover and turned out to be a Thatcherite.

There is no doubt that Mr Cameron has an opponent which he can not deal with. Mr Corbyn has all the characteristics which Mr Cameron and his Party are lacking. They are respectful, care for their voters and listen to them, honesty, truthfulness and open straight forward dealings.

Therefore it would be no surprise if Mr Cameron and his disciples would try, quietly, to dislodge Mr Corbyn. Is that the real reason behind it?

Mr Cameron, again, points the finger at the Labour being split. It is not a split but just a few MPs who discovered they do not agree with Mr Corbyn’s principles. However, there is the same situation in the Tory party regarding the EU IN/Out referendum. Five of his top MPs threatened to resign if they are not allowed to campaign against EU membership.

At first Mr Cameron stated that he would not allow them. Only after a few days he now told them that they can campaign provided they do no move the voters away from the EU membership to be continued. It is a total contradicting rubbish. Let us see if those Top Tory MPs stand by their words because Mr Cameron's last comment on the subject is nothing but a wishy-washy.

CEASE FIRE FOR SYRIA

REMEMBER there was a glimpse of hope to stop fighting in Syria. We dont hear anything any more about it

UPDATE 17 January, 2016: So far there seems no sign of it. The British Government  announced that they flew bombing raids last Sunday.

Why is it not upheld?

It supposed to start early January? Why is Mr Cameron ignoring it and bring more danger to this country? It is the man in the street who will pay the price. Mr Cameron does not seems to care.

UN Security Council voted unanimously for a cease fire in Syria. It is the best news there could have been.

US Secretary of State John Kerry said: “An UN plan for Syria is a “milestone” in the effect to end the conflict there.” 

Although agreeing with the statement but it is a contradiction to Mr Kerry previous statements and especial to his previous action.

John Kerry added: “Mr Assad had lost the ability to unite the country and demands Mr Assad immediate departure which would prolong the war.”

The West and Arab nations concluded the resolution that Mr Assad could be part of the transition but insist he must be gone at the end of it

Let us hold here and get a few facts in. The US started to supply arms and support Al-Qaeda, four year ago. Slowly one by one other western country joined in.  From Al-Qaeda sprang ISIS which grew and now so powerful that the West and Russia see no alternative but to destroy them. All the time the West were supplying them with weapons through the back door and fighting in the front. 

Double dealing never worked out in the long run and it has not in this case.

It was planned that 34 countries, including the UK, establish an army and is under the command of Saudi Arabia to defeat ISIS.  Whether Russia and China is part of it is not clear. It is also not clear whether that plan provoked the UN to call for a Security Council meeting because if the West and Arab countries join the army they would be up against Russia and Chine.  Russia and China support Mr Assad.

This situation could develop into another World War very quickly because there are too many countries involved again Russia and China.

Coming back to the UN Security Council resolution it was also decided Syria would have, that they called, a “democratic” election.  US have hardly a democratic action when they keep attacking other country with no other reason but dominate them but they keep waving the flag about democracy.

As Syrian UN ambassador Bashar Jaafan already pointed out: “There is a glaring contradiction between outside countries talking about letting Syria decide their future yet also insisting on replacing Mr Assad.”

UN Security Council Resolution No 2254

n   Calls for ceasefire and formal talks or a political transition to start in early January.

n    Groups seen as “terrorists” included IS and al-Nusra Front, are excluded.

n    “Offensive and defensive actions” against such groups – a reference to air strikes by US –led coalition and Russia – to continue.

n   UN chief Ban Ki-Moon to report by 18 January, 2016, on how to monitored ceasefire.

n   “Credible, inclusive and non-sectarian government” to be established within six months.

n   Political transition should be Syria-led.

Russia Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said: “It would be possible to reach an agreement on a unity government for Syria within six month.

The resolution will not effect the bombing by Russia, France and US against IS,

So far 250,000 people had been killed in the civil war and millions displaced.

However, there is a disagreement already which armed group should be labelled as terrorists and therefore to be bombed.

As wonderful the news of a cease file sounds on the surface but if you read in between the lines there is still the insistence to remove Mr Assad which was the reason of starting the civil war supported by the West.

Therefore the resolution does not look as solid as it is made out to be but it is a great step forward and hopefully it holds and continues to bring everlasting peace.

Apart from destroying the IS; the US and West should keep out of Syria’s affairs.

US, UK and the West should learn from the recent wars which did not solve anything but caused more troubles.

In Afghanistan the so hard fought Helmsman district was freed from Talibans is now run over again and in Talibans’ hands. How must those solders feel like about the sacrifices of their killed and maimed comrades, some for life?

In Iraq there was no IS until the war was fought there and now it is a training ground for them. From there they lS spread into Syria.

Therefore America should stop to be so self righteous and play the policeman of the world.  So far they ruined Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Lebanon, Libya and Syria under the great cover “democracy” but in reality keeping their weapon industry going.  

NEW ATTEMPTS TO ACHIEVE UK FRACKING updated 16 Dec., 2015

UPDATED 16 Dec., 2015

Unbelievable but true the MPs have voted  today 298 to 286 for fracking under National Parks.  Although it is 1200m below but the ground-water will be contaminated.

Nature is so fragile and can be unbalanced easily. As for blasting huge amount of chemical water in, building nearby huge roads for being able to transport 250 lorries a day in and out and not knowing where the contaminated water will be disperse it must have a tremendous impact on Nature. All in all in a National Park area.

No way they can deny that.

SGTF (Shale Gas Task Force) states, only to win the public over, that it will create thousands of jobs. This catch phrase had been played too often and at the end it proven wrong or a lie to begin with. 

That it would create a number of jobs there is no doubt but it would cause more damage to the environment forever which makes it not worthwhile.

Greenpeace criticised it two days after the Paris climate deal: “Whatever planet the UK fracking lobby inhabits, it can’t be the same one where world leaders just reached a historical deal that puts fossil fuels on the wrong side of history.  If the UK government is really committed to keeping the end of the Paris deal; it must rethink its support for fracking and back safe, cheap energy instead.”

The SGTF do not talk about how they going to ruin the country side forever.

They never state the chemicals they blast into it which will ruin the groundwater. When they done it in Blackpool it caused a earthquake.

They never speak of the amount of groundwater they use and contaminate with chemicals and where they are putting the contaminated water?

UK has already severe shortage of water.

They speak of property prices in the effected area is uncertain which is a white wash because everybody knows that it would drop in value drastically.

Who do they think they can blindfold? The public is not stupid, a fact that the Government nor the fracking companies will accept.

The Government again, can fund the carbon capture and storage technology, but could not back the Steel Industry.

There had been new regulations but no matter how many; the public is fully aware that it causes nothing but endless damage in various forms.

There is enough evidence from Canada and the USA of the damage it caused. How can the task force state that fracking can be done safely in the UK?

Who are they trying to kid?

The public is so up in arms that PM David Cameron sees no other way but to take the decisions out of the councils’ hands and transferred it to Westminster just to get his will.

Mr Cameron’s leadership getting more and more dictatorial also with other decisions.

PARIS ATTACKS AND ITS AFTERMATH - Update 23 JANUARY, 2016

 4000 wounded, 229 still in hospital and 57 in intensive care.

UPDATE: 23 January, 2016
French Prime Minister Manuel Valls spoke at the  World Economic Forum in Davos Switzerland.

He criticised Brussels very heavily that they did and do nothing to protect its citizen even after the Paris attack and the sexual assaults and gang rapes in Germany. nothing was done.

The Schenken agreement of free movement within Europe was ideal but turned out that the wrong people take advantage of. 

However, Brussels should protect the European border but nothing was done. Due the many rules imposed on other European countries , some absolutely ridiculous and restrictive, and now failing to protect its citizen the believe in a United Europe for the better of it has faded. The sooner Britain and other countries get out the better.

UPDATE  16 Nov., 2015
Mr Hollande, the president, promised that he will wipe out ISIS. 

Russia confirms that the airliner which was brought down in the Sinai desert was blown up in mid-air and the debris show foreign parts of explosives. The final result will also have some response from Russia.

The attack on Paris and its people is condemnable and shocking. At least 129 people died , 400 wounded, 229 still in hospital and 57 in intensive care.. The severely injured are still on the critical list and some may still die or maimed for life.

================================================
PLEASE BE SO KIND AND CLICK ON ADVERTS. THANK YOU
================================================

The police already arrested several people and know the names of the attackers as well the suspected organiser who is still at large. The police done a great job to come up with results like this so quickly.

The next stage is how to deal with the ISIS who admitted responsibility.

US and France already planning further bombing on ISIS’s strongholds. Although everybody’s first reaction would be to bomb them out of existence. It is only naturally when you see or read about the terrible carnage but we have to sit down and calm down to look at the whole picture.

The fact is that they are widespread and a very powerful, ruthless terrorists organisation. Therefore, to start bombing their stronghold in Syria does not give the result when they are in Iraq as well as in many other countries, maybe even under different names. It only increases their determination to add more attacks. Already they drew up a plan of several other attacks and warned the world not to bomb them.

The other side of the coin is if the USA and the West stopped bombing they will spread even quicker.  Since lives do not count with them something has to be done to stop them. We are back to the same question “But What?”

The USA and its Allies are determined to get Mr Assad out. But Why? An old propaganda headline has pop-up again because he dropped a chemical bomb on its people.

Since propagandas are never true this too lacks of facts. The chemical bomb was dropped in 2013. Therefore the West uses it as an excuse to remove Mr Assad. The civil war is raging since 2011, supported by the Americans. The UN sent International Inspectors to examine the evidence in Syria but the report was never published.  It always raises suspicion that the truth is on the other side.  There were also rumours circulating that the CIA or Mossad, the secret service of Israel, was responsible.

Whatsoever or whosoever dropped the chemical bomb was certainly trying to speed up military action which was seriously thought about it.  Especially John Kerry, the US Secretary of State, was pushing it with all his might until the Russians took away the chemical stockpile from Mr Assay, with his permission.

It also was reported that Saudi Arabia supplies the ISIS with weapons. Soudi Arabia has one of the worst Human Rights record but demands Mr Assad to be removed because of his treatment of his people.  

There are a lot of double dealings and the ISIS is using it. 2012/13 USA supplied the ‘moderate rebels’ with weapons and missiles which were expected and now confirmed that they were passed on to ISIS. Surely the USA is that much up-to-date that there is no ‘moderate rebels’. Now again, John Kerry, managed to receive, approved by the Congress, $500million to support the ‘moderate rebels’. So what is the USA playing at?

The UK, during the same time, supplied chemicals to Syria which enabled them to produce chemical weapons.  A recent report stated that ISIS has 20 tones of mustard gas.

That is the murky world of politics and we, the people, who will suffer on the hands of ISIS have no say in the governments’ dealings.

RUSSIA STARTED AIR STRIKES IN SYRIA-- UPDATE 1 Oct., 2015

UPDATE: 1 October, 2015 --
US is willing to talk to Russians as soon as possible to avoid clashes of their air strikes.

Why could it not be done at the UN meeting only a few days ago?  

Their aim is to hit rebel-controlled areas as of Homs and Hama provinces in Syria. Russia informed the US one hours before the military operation began.

An US defence official said: “A Russian official in Baghdad this morning informed US embassy personnel that Russian military aircrafts begin flying anti-Isil mission today over Syria. He further requests that US aircraft avoid Syrian airspace during these missions.”

This action seems to be the result that Russia does not think there will be a diplomatic resolution, either from the UN Security Council or the Western allies.

Russia reported that SUKHOI-Su-24 warplanes were involved and operated out of an airbase near Latakia.

It is not quite clear what Russia targeted. According to US official they are not striking any IS-territory. However, the information should not be treated as gospel truth because it could be propaganda. The Russian statement is their planes to support Syria government forces and is striking against the multiple enemies of the Assad’s regime. They revealed further that the air force had targeted IS military equipment, 

communication facilities, arms depots, ammunition and fuel supplies.

If that is the case it is a serious escalation of the conflict and a result of the US State Secretary John Kerry.

The multiple enemies, as quoted by the Russian, are US, UK and West’s Arab or Turkey.

According to the BBC, the Russian’s upper house of their parliament granted President Putin permission to deploy the Russian air force in Syria.

The Syrian opposition reported that the Russian planes bombed Zafaraneh, Rastan, Talbiseh, Makarmia and Ghanto. So far 36 people were killed including children. They emphasized that none of the areas have been control by the IS.

Mr Putin said in a TV interview: “The air strikes were targeting at Islamic militants and Russian citizens – who were taken over large parts of Syria and Iraq.

He added further: “If they (militants) succeed in Syria, they will return to their home country, and they will come to Russia, too.” Mr Putin emphasizes “Russia will not send ground troops to Syria, and that its role in Syria’s army operation will be limited. We certainly are not to plunge head-on into this conflict. We will support the Syrian army purely in a legitimate fight with terrorist groups.”

The net seems to be closing just like before the First World Was and the Second when it started one country and another and another got involved.

Surely, the big powers US, UK, France and Russia could solve the problem round the negotiating table. As the saying goes “Where there is a will, there is a way.”

Russia saved the world last year, in the last minute, from a total war and most probably from a chemical war.  The US and UK could have left it at that but no they had to start air strikes. The IS would have been defeated within the Middle East countries. The West would not have to be involved. Now they pushed it again to the limit and Russia saw no other way but to support Assad’s regime by military actions.

At the moment there are Iran, Russia, Lebanon’s Hezbollah supporting Alawite-led government, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar opposing US, UK and France.  Israel flying air strikes. Details are not known.

There are far too many involved already and threaten the world peace.

Since PM David Cameron is so eager to play the knight in shining armour does he not realise this is not Afghanistan or Iraq or the Falklands?  There are far too many big armies backing Syria’s arm. It is not good to listen to the US because they will far away from the shot.  They can happily light the fuse but when it comes to the big bang it is us who sit in the firing line again.

The US always roping in the UK but where was the US when the IRA kept murdering people in the UK? They even supported the IRA financially. Harold Wilson, Labour, was the only Prime Minister who said no to the US getting involve in the Vietnam war.

David Cameron even went ahead with air strikes in spite of the majority of MPs voted against it.
