<p>As memories of the Blair Project seem to flutter away in the breeze for most people, moments of anger and disappointment that flecked his ugly disgraceful premiership are once again part of our every day lives, why? Because the politically engineered Con-Dem (Brokeback) Coalition, arranged so subtly with help from the controlled media before the elections last May, has made even the most apolitical Briton somewhat concerned about the blue print for white British ethnic cleansing  just as obvious this time as the last.</p>
<p>Once the British National Party has gone through it&#8217;s latest stage of development, leading to a certain maturity after obviously state sponsored attacks from within, and some folk being taken in by some of the oldest tricks in the Communist Political Subversion Handbook, we will literally be the only opposition party left in British politics, and they know it.</p>
<p>So then, Cameron, backed by his genetically modified Liberal partners, and the <strong>Biggest Trade Delegation</strong> in history, (TV media spin), have been doing deals behind the backs of not only his own traditional Conservative supporters, but the whole of the next generation of British school leavers, including Post Graduates, who are now working behind bars, stacking shelves, or living off friends and relatives whilst facing massive debts. The reality of all this of course is the fact, openly stated by the media that the Indian government has put pressure on Britain to be more flexible in it&#8217;s immigration policies.</p>
<p>By flexible, they mean an open door policy. Not only that but with Turkey now being encouraged to enter the near bankrupt Euro-Zone, we will see some 750,000 extra immigrants at least, from that country alone. With some 5000,000. illegals here already, and another 10,000,000 settled here in the last fifty years or so, the true number of non-white British Citizens, could actually be a frightening <strong>One Third</strong> of the population of the estimated 75,000,000 future populace, considering their phenomenally high birth rates.<br />
Here&#8217;s what Migration Watch has to say: There was relatively little migration into Britain (other than from Ireland) until New Commonwealth immigration began in the 1950s. Legislation in the early 1970s was intended to reduce this to a trickle. In practice it continued at the rate of half a million acceptances for settlement every decade. This was counterbalanced by emigration until 1983. The net inflow has grown steadily since then. The total net immigration from outside the E.U. has now reached a rate equivalent to about 1.5 million every decade.</p>
<p>With recent revelations about New Labour&#8217;s &#8221;Brave New Britain&#8221; coming to light, where even the media proved its limited national worth, and exposed papers suggesting that the Blair project had used immigration to smash the right in Britain, and change the country for ever, it was hoped that Cameron would at least honour some Conservative policies. In April this year, one month before the elections, Cameron told the Mail: Immigration is &#8216;too high&#8217; and will be reduced to levels last seen in the mid-1990s under a Tory election blueprint to restore Britain&#8217;s &#8216;sense of national purpose. Reducing levels to those of the 1990s would mean around 50,000 immigrants a year would be allowed to settle.</p>

<p>http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1265515/Conservatives-pledge-cut-number-migrants.html#ixzz0uxrOx69d</p>
<p>Please remember that the figures here are simply block numbers, referenced from media and other sources, to show some reality of the then, now, and future outlook for Britain. Immigrants are well known for their love of the &#8216;Benefits Riviera Of The World&#8217;, ie Britain, and thus, any numbers suggested could explode beyond those shown here. Simply put, we are in for a very serious economic, social, and lawless five years. God help the children.</p>
<p>Now Mr Cameron, are you going to take your name off the UAF supporter list? Is Blair, Brown, and in fact anyone in politics still alive when they introduced Globalism into our nation in 1948, going to take responsibility for not only what has already happened to us, but what is happening, and the BLOODY consequences that will without a shadow of a doubt, come to fruition?</p>
<p>All Prime Ministers and every member of this, and all previous governments, their financial contributors, horse whispering foreign advisers, and the increasingly arrogant and aggressive immigrants given opportunities our grand parents could not have  imagined, will have to face the wrath of the descendants of the Ancient Briton. This is not a vague threat, or a piece written in righteous anger. It is quite simply, A Promise To Pay The Bearer so to speak. Ironically, that was what we were, as a nation, promised in 1833, when bank notes were made legal tender for all sums above £5 in England and Wales. Thus, in the event of a crisis, the British people would still be able to accept such Bank notes, and its bullion reserves would be safeguarded.</p>
<p>Where are our reserves Mr Cameron? Where is our national, and socio-economic security? Can you tell us Mr Cameron, why you and your shadowy masters and advisers, have now decided to completely destroy this nation? Most people think the answer is obvious&#8230; you dare not, and you could not. You have gone abroad, and blatantly reneged on every promise you made, and helped push the Blair Project further. You are a parasite, a traitor, and an enemy of the people Mr Cameron. You are in fact, the absolute proof that in this, and other Western European nations, that we are at the mercy of a multi-headed Marxist Occupied Government (MOG), in the worst economic crisis to hit the world in Eighty Years, yet you are now going to import millions more immigrants into our nation yet again, under the illusion of economic necessity. You are going to enslave us to low wages, and at the same time help the Blair Project along nicely, by robbing our manufacturing and skills base and taking our inheritance from us without a sleepless night.</p>
<p>Readers, imagine this continuating if you will. Think hard and long about your own circumstances. If we have five full years of this coalition, and yet another rump of immigrants arrive on our shores, what will this government do to placate them, and to halt opposition to such ethnic cleansing? That&#8217;s right, they will outlaw ALL opposition, and extend the powers of the alien lawmakers that have infested our legal institutions. Add to this the much vaunted benefit system overhaul, which will be used to take more away from our own, and give extra help, homes, jobs and businesses, such as the much needed car washing franchises seen by the thousand around this country of ours. Skilled jobs are already taken by immigrants as it is, so why is it that India, China, and Pakistan amongst others, are so willing to let go of their own skilled workers, nurses, and car wash experts?</p>
<p>Traitor and political rent boy, Tony Blair, who now ponces around the globe making millions and pretending to care about the third world, did not leave the once much loved, and most famous address in history No 10 Downing Street. He simply underwent genetic modification by his political surgeons, changed his name, and we now have a new face for the Blair Project. Do you recognise him Dave? It&#8217;s you, yes you. We will remember you, and every single one of the traitors, war-mongers, bullion thieves, and those responsible for aiding and abetting the rape, murder, and ethnic cleansing of our last two generations of white British people. When the men in suits come knocking on our doors Mr Cameron, that is when the real revolution will begin&#8230; the Nationalist Revolution.</p>

		</p><p>As austerity hits native Britons pockets and deep cuts in essential services are imminent, nationalists will be interested to read that asylum seekers seeking permission to stay in Britain are being offered free swimming pool or gym sessions while they wait.</p>
<p>More than 250 people from other countries have so far made use of a special card that gets them into council leisure facilities that residents – and even pensioners – have to pay to use.</p>
<p>Britons wanting to join the scheme – operating in Newcastle – can expect to pay up to £180 a year for the city council’s Leisure Plus card.</p>
<p>But 256 of the city’s 480 asylum seekers have taken up the offer of a free card, at a cost to council taxpayers of £7,000.</p>
<p>Bureaucrats regard the scheme as so successful it may be copied by other local authorities around the country.</p>
<p>Your Homes Newcastle, responsible for housing the applicants, says the scheme prevents users from feeling isolated in a strange country, and encourages them to become part of the community in which they are living.</p>
<p>But TaxPayers’ Alliance spokeswoman Emma Boon said: “Offering one group of people a particular service for free, whilst others, including pensioners, are paying is likely to create divisions in the local community.” </p>
<p>Applicants must be able to prove their asylum seeker status to qualify for the card, which is valid for six months and includes free use of Newcastle’s state-of-the-art Centre for Sport complex.</p>
<p>Steve Murphy, chair of Your Homes Newcastle, said: “We believe the scheme has real economic and social benefits. </p>
<p>“It helps to integrate asylum seekers. This makes Newcastle a more vibrant and diverse place.</p>
<p>Maybe Mr Murphy should consult Newcastle&#8217;s long term residents to see if they are happy to allow their city to be enriched.</p>
<p>But we know the answer, don&#8217;t we?</p>
<p>The same argument has been used by Labour (Conservatives got there first) to swamp Britain with immigrants in order to make it multicultural, they were well aware that voters would have never approved.</p>
<p>This is why they introduced tough race-hatred laws that make any criticism of immigration a criminal offence (BNP activists know only too well what I&#8217;m talking about).</p>
<p>On the bright side this programme may help us to get more supporters up North.</p>

		</p><p>Fiat Currency in the U.S. and us, is it of any of concern to the UK?</p>
<p>Well yes it is! In fact it is a matter of concern not only to us in the UK, but to Europe and the World.</p>

<p>Debt makes profit! </p>
<p>For who, and for what reason?</p>
<p>The &#8216;who&#8217; are the bankers the moneymen and their puppeteers, and the reason being to burden not just the individual, but Nations saddled with a debt that can never be repaid.</p>
<p>What would happen if you reneged on a mortgage taken out on a house?<br />
You would have your home repossessed, so in a microcosm we have the individual, and in macrocosm we have the world. </p>
<p>Now, do you think the act of an individual bank taking away your home is any different to the World Bank taking possession of a country?<br />
That&#8217;s what is happening no matter what country you live in.</p>
<p>Problems meeting the interest payments on loans?<br />
No worries, we can give you more fiat currency so you can repay the loans we gave you with the new loans we are going to give you.<br />
FFS, will you not wake up and smell the coffee, you are being conned to death. Those pieces of plastic you use as credit/debt cards to put food on the table and clothes on the backs of your children are no more than chains that bind you to the banksters. You are no more than serfs.<br />
Credit is debt, and debt is profit.  </p>

		</p><p>Certain ideas will only take hold when conditions are right and the time is fast approaching. We will soon see in England what we saw during many years in Northern Ireland and in many countries in Latin America. The centre will vanish erased by an unstoppable economic downturn and the political spectrum will be totally polarized.</p>
<p>This is not about percentages or cuts here and there. We are witnessing a mortal confrontation between two incompatible philosophies. When you want to destroy a building, the quickest way is to destroy what supports the building. Labour created a macrocephalic state to support Labour and we know trade union membership is 57 per cent in the public sector and 15 per cent in the private sector.</p>
<p>Red October is just around the corner. Labour might have preserved much of its powerbase in London but it must prepare itself for a shock since its policy of buying votes with public jobs is about to unravel. Labour’s loudspeaker also known as BBC must also prepare itself for inevitable cuts. In a country where 1.4 million households are having to choose between heating and food, the License fee is a luxury that the country can ill afford.</p>
<p>As they publish the salaries of many public employees, the salaries of Trade Union officers will also be published to unmask the Mandarins who have lived at the expense of British taxpayers via money laundering promoted by the Labour Party.</p>

		</p><p>It is reported that the Home Secretary will be imposing a strict limit on the number of non-EU work permits to be handed out, and it is expected to lead to a sharp reduction in the more than 100,000 migrants and family members who are told they can work here each year. </p>
<p>The cap is being forced through despite protests from some Tory Cabinet ministers, (I wonder how many lobbyists are pushing the Ministers?) they claim it could hit the profits of UK business and Universities. </p>
<p>So is government finally listening to people?</p>
<p>Of course not, there are so many loopholes immigrants can use to sneak in, such as inter-company transfers where big companies move staff from one country to another.</p>
<p>Also there is no mention of new measures to prevent &#8216;asylum&#8217; seekers coming into the UK, and no indication that the million or so illegal immigrants/asylum seekers (there is no such thing as a legal asylum seeker) living in the UK will be kicked out.</p>
<p>This is hardly surprising as we have pointed out before, immigration and asylum policies are now decided by the EU and Theresa May must accept the will of the unelected EU bureaucrats.<br />
<object width="500" height="405"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ewMegpqBhRk&#038;hl=en_GB&#038;fs=1&#038;rel=0&#038;color1=0x3a3a3a&#038;color2=0x999999&#038;border=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ewMegpqBhRk&#038;hl=en_GB&#038;fs=1&#038;rel=0&#038;color1=0x3a3a3a&#038;color2=0x999999&#038;border=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="500" height="405"></embed></object></p>
<p>And there is nothing we can do to prevent those with an EU passport coming here, one example being the hundreds of thousand Poles who migrated to the UK for economic reasons (All Balkan states are allowed to work here, Balkanisation by design). </p>
<p>In the last few months as the financial crisis deepened, and it has become harder to find employment in the UK, thousands of Poles left Britain but a study suggests they found the situation to be far worse in their homeland, and around a third could be about to travel for a second time.</p>
<p>One in three of those interviewed by the Polish research company ISQ said that they wanted to work abroad again.</p>
<p>Dr Dorota Wiszejko-Wierzbicka, author of the study, said the relative wealth and the hard economic climate in Poland lay behind the desire to migrate.</p>
<p>&#8220;They know that not only is there better pay abroad but there are also more jobs,&#8221; she said.</p>
<p>&#8220;In Poland barely a third of the returnees surveyed by us have a steady job, and many complain of a hostile Polish labour market. No wonder then that one-third want to leave again.&#8221;</p>
<p>Poland weathered the global recession with reasonable success, and it was the only EU country to record economic growth last year.</p>
<p>But it is still plagued by an unemployment rate of 12.3 per cent, and this figure rises to more than 20 per cent in the small towns and rural areas that are home to many of those contemplating packing their bags for a second time.</p>
<p>The results of the ISQ study are supported by similar research carried out in south-western Poland, which found that large numbers or returnees had little or no desire to remain in the country.</p>
<p>Bartosz Trzaskalski, from the Centre for Strategic Consulting and author of the study, said: &#8220;With us we found that up to half of the returnees announced that once again they will be leaving for a job abroad within the next two years.&#8221;</p>
<p>But the news that Poles coming home after working abroad have trouble finding jobs and settling down will also renew fears in Poland of what demographers and economists have dubbed the &#8220;lost generation&#8221;.</p>
<p>Having spent many years working in menial jobs in the UK, and now with no skills suitable for the Polish market, economists fear  they will become a burden on the Polish state.</p>
<p>Britain absorbed the vast majority of the hundreds of thousands who left Poland after EU accession in May 2004. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s not difficult to foresee a new wave of Polish immigration, even if there are no jobs available, because they can still claim benefits and get free health care.</p>
<p>So much for the Tories putting a cap on immigration.</p>

		</p><p>I have to admit that in the last few days I have spent a fair bit of time looking at the emergency budget because I wanted to see how it might affect the election prospects of the British National Party.</p>
<p>I believe there are some aspects of this budget that deserve to be supported, in particular the ones regarding the welfare system.</p>
<p>The Daily Express reported that George Osborne ­is planning a second round of benefit cuts on top of the £11billion annual welfare squeeze unveiled in his ­emergency Budget.</p>
<p>Confirming the coalition Government’s determination to carry out the most radical welfare overhaul in over half a century, the Chancellor sent a stark warning that even more state handouts would be slashed.</p>
<p>His message came as senior ministers defended the hugely ambitious £40billion programme of tax rises and spending cuts announced on Tuesday to save the country from economic disaster.</p>
<p>Britain’s bloated welfare bill – now costing the country nearly £200billion a year – is the Chancellor’s top target for cuts, with housing benefit and other benefits to be curbed.</p>
<p>Mr Osborne said further welfare savings beyond his planned ­£11billion squeeze would ease the pressure to make cuts averaging 25 per cent on public services, including prisons and the police.</p>
<p>He said: “If over the coming months we can find further savings in the welfare budget, then we can bring that 25 per cent number down.</p>
<p>“In the end, that is the trade-off, not just between departments, but also between the very large welfare bill and the departmental expenditure bill.</p>
<p>“That’s why we are having this big public engagement through the spending review process so that as a country we can come to that ­decision collectively.”</p>
<p>Treasury sources last night said Mr Osborne was urging all Government ministers to suggest further ways the welfare bill could be slashed. He said any further savings would be ploughed back into their departmental budgets. A Cabinet committee is due to meet regularly and discuss ­further welfare cuts.</p>
<p>I know I will upset many but I firmly believe that a reform of the welfare system is long overdue and Mr Osborne deserves credit for trying to do that.</p>
<p>Too many people in this country are living on benefits and too many claim disability benefits even when they are fit for work, and the cost to the taxpayer is enormous.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s not uncommon to find families in which no one has done a day of work in his/her life, and parents spend their time drinking, smoking at our cost, and in some cases we also pay for their drugs.</p>
<p>Their children often drop out of school with no qualifications other than with an understanding of the welfare system that would put professionals to shame, and follow in their parents&#8217; footsteps by claiming all the benefits they have a &#8216;right&#8217; to, and in the case of teenaged girls, getting pregnant so they can live all their lives on the dole.</p>
<p>Many of those offsping are also more likely to become violent thugs and criminals, a common occurrence in what we often refer as broken Britain.</p>
<p>The MSM want people to believe that these scroungers are all BNP supporters but nothing could be further from the truth.</p>
<p>Most of them don&#8217;t care about politics and actually tend to be hostile towards us even when they live in an area that has been enriched to such an extent that they are the only whites left.</p>
<p>They are the ones who join movements like the UAF or other antifascist groups, something nationalists are only too well aware of.</p>
<p>Of course many oppose reform of the welfare system, because they believe that people only claim benefits because there are no jobs available or are badly paid.</p>
<p>There is some truth in that belief, and forcing people to look for work when there are no jobs is wrong.</p>
<p>Many of them will suffer as they compete with immigrants willing to work for peanuts, and then comes the possibility of a backlash, and rioting on the streets in protest at the iniquitous behaviour of the ruling Junta in allowing our Island to be invaded. The people must awake before it is too late to get back what we once had.</p>
<p>We can only hope this happens sooner rather than later and refuse to accept the multiracial project that has been imposed on them for 50 odd years.</p>
<p>Many of the white-working class showed a long time ago that they know we are suffering from unfettered mass immigration, and they did it by supporting the British National Party.</p>
<p>The four million or so living on the dole who don&#8217;t join the white-working class in the struggle to take Britain back clearly don&#8217;t suffer any hardship. Yet!!</p>
<p>The overhaul of the welfare system may change that.</p>

		</p><p>The Republic of Ireland deserves all it gets, its people were coerced into voting for the Lisbon Treaty, and the Republic is now coming to realise what a nasty and voracious beast it has allowed into its body. Unrest on the streets and turmoil in its Treasury, this is more akin to Greece than the Emerald Isle.</p>
<p>The problem is more prevalent in Greece but then it has had more media coverage, but watch this video and you will notice something strange! This is from a Russian news channel RT News, why has the EUBBC not picked up on it?<br />
I do not recall seeing any coverage on the EU subsidised BBC do you?</p>
<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Dsqsd1driY&#038;feature=player_embedded#!">Pantherandpolitics</a><br />
<object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/-Dsqsd1driY&#038;hl=en_GB&#038;fs=1&#038;rel=0&#038;color1=0x3a3a3a&#038;color2=0x999999"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/-Dsqsd1driY&#038;hl=en_GB&#038;fs=1&#038;rel=0&#038;color1=0x3a3a3a&#038;color2=0x999999" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="600" height="450"></embed></object> </p>
<p>That&#8217;s Greece, Ireland and Spain so far, Portugal and Italy are not too happy either. </p>
<p>The money is swilling around in ever diminishing value, &#8216;quantitive easing&#8217; is in play here and it can go on only so long, the bubble of illusion will burst, and when it does heaven help those countries that wed themselves to the Euro when things looked rosy and the future was milk and honey. Well the milk has turned sour and the honey is running out. I hope and pray that one of the PIIGS goes tits up or much more to be hoped for, the German people say &#8220;no more bail outs&#8221;. Let the PIIGS sink and then go back to the Lira, Punt, Escudo, Peseta and the Drachma.</p>
<p>Divorce will be messy, but better a clean break and be part of Europe than dragged into the morass of despair and servitude which will be the end result of staying wedded to the EU. </p>

		</p><p>I often think that it’s a pity politicians aren’t held personally liable for their actions whilst in government. At least then we would have the satisfaction of seeing them suffer along with the rest of us when things go wrong. As it is, 13 years of Labour misrule has left this country almost bankrupt, while Gordon and his cronies swan off to tranquil waters, leaving the rest of us to face the vicissitudes of the looming storm.</p>
<p>Remember Gordon’s former boast of ‘no more boom and bust’? The media and leading politicians of the day were almost falling over themselves to reassure us that his were the ‘safe pair of hands’ of a ‘prudent’ chancellor. On becoming PM, he was also obsequiously hailed as the ‘man from the manse’ who was set to change the political climate by ushering in the ‘government of all the talents.’ Meanwhile, New-Labour had consistently and deliberately drained the national coffers dry in a frantic attempt to placate the voters and delude us all into thinking we could get something for nothing, while simultaneously pursuing policies which were and continue to be in direct conflict with the national interest.</p>
<p>The fact is that it was all done with borrowed money- but that didn’t concern them. Brown and the New-Labour government were happy to brush the muck under the carpet because they knew for certain that by the time it came to pay-back day, they would all be out of office. Even if they had won another term, they would have made damn sure, by borrowing yet more, it wouldn’t be their government that would have to do the paying back. It’s easy to be generous with someone else’s money; more especially if you know that you won’t be the person called upon to return it.</p>
<p>The former government has turned the wasting of tax-payers’ money into an art-form! Membership of the EU stings us for millions of pounds a day. Those wickedly unnecessary wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have cost us dearly too in money- not to mention the lives needlessly squandered in a pointless cause. The price of keeping those who resolutely refuse to work is another drain on the national purse. And for those who want to work, jobs are few and far between because the heavy tax-burden and plethora of unnecessary rules and regulations which have forced small businesses to the wall. As for the vast amount expended on the criminal justice system that specialises on processing malefactors instead of punishing them thus encouraging them to re-offend…. I could go on at length, but you get the drift.</p>
<p>And now, heaven help us, it’s pay-back time. We’re all going to have to pay the price for this continuing madness. Someone the other day quoted me a figure for the national debt liability working out as something in the region of over £30 000 per individual tax-payer. I’m not sure if this includes everyone who pays tax, ie VAT, or whether this is just confined to earners. Even so, it is indicative of a frighteningly penurious scenario to come which we are all going to have to face. Meanwhile, the irresponsible perpetrators will come out of it more or less unscathed with their index-linked pensions, the book deals, the speaking engagements, the directorships and the like. Mr Blair for one seems to be coining it! Obviously, socialism for him is something to be preached and not practised.</p>
<p>But then I suppose if we, the electorate, are so gullible as to have voted these charlatans into power in the first place, we really only have ourselves to blame. And remember where you read it first- the long term economic prospects under the new coalition won’t be any different. Because they won’t change tack on Europe, jobs, the wars, and a host of issues which would make a real difference to the health of our balance of payments. The only remedy as they see it will be cuts, cuts and more cuts. And as always, it won’t be at the top, but rather at the coal-face where the blows will fall. It will be front-line services and the people that so depend on them that will have to bear the main brunt from the blows of the repeatedly falling axe.</p>

<p>It may be sooner than you think, that the age of reason will return to European politics before long but certainly before the turn of a new decade. If I was a gambling man presented with the options of complete break up, a two tier system, an Anglo &#8211; French &#8211; German &#8211; alliance, or a new alliance of sovereign nations working together in a co-operative trading union as friendly neighbours, then I think I&#8217;d have to go with the latter but it&#8217;s anyone&#8217;s guess as to precisely what will happen.</p>
<p>How do I know this?</p>
<p>Well I&#8217;m guessing of course as I&#8217;m not psychic, I&#8217;m just a normal human being who understands that when a secret is out, that it doesn&#8217;t take long for people to question, mistrust those who kept the secret, and eventually threaten to walk away shaking their heads in disbelief.</p>
<p>So when I read this today when the unelected cardboard cut out politician, EU President Van Rumpwinkle admitted that the people of Europe were conned into accepting a single currency, it sent my EU alarm ringing until it fell off the desk.</p>
<p>This is how it goes&#8230;.</p>
<p>&#8220;Van Rompuy admits citizens were misled about the euro&#8221;<br />
<a href="http://www.londonpatriot.org/wp-content/uploads/liar.jpg"><img src="http://www.londonpatriot.org/wp-content/uploads/liar.jpg" alt="" title="liar" width="500" height="471" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-8751" /></a></p>
<p>The Telegraph reports that EU Council President Herman Van Rompuy has admitted that the &#8220;man in the street&#8221; was misled about the true economic and political implications of adopting the euro. &#8220;Nobody ever told the proverbial man in the street that sharing a single currency was not just about making peoples&#8217; lives easier when doing business or travelling abroad, but also about being directly affected by economic developments in the neighbouring countries,&#8221; he said on Tuesday evening. &#8220;Being in the &#8216;Euro zone&#8217; means, monetarily speaking, being part of one &#8216;Euroland&#8217;.&#8221;</p>
<p>He added that &#8220;We are clearly confronted with a tension within the system, the ill-famous dilemma of being a monetary union and not a full-fledged economic and political union. This tension has been there since the single currency was created. However, the general public was not really made aware of it.&#8221;</p>
<p>The article cites Open Europe&#8217;s new briefing, &#8220;They said it: How the EU elite got it wrong on the euro&#8221;, and quotes Open Europe&#8217;s Vincenzo Scarpetta saying, &#8220;The euro zone crisis is not simply about economic failure but also a breakdown in trust between the political class and European citizens. The EU elite simply got it wrong on the euro.&#8221;</p>
<p>Meanwhile, in an interview with Süddeutsche Zeitung, Commissioner for Budgets Janusz Lewandowski said, ahead of his talks with Chancellor Merkel and German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schäuble, &#8220;I want to see to what extent [German] public opinion has changed his mind about European aims [...] Germans have clearly become more eurosceptic: they believe they must pay for other EU citizens&#8217; mistakes and good life&#8221;.</p>
<p>Ah, I bet you&#8217;re thinking what&#8217;s that got to do with the break up of the EU right?</p>
<p>Okay, I&#8217;m either completely off my rocker, I&#8217;ve spent far too much time in the garden, I&#8217;ve been studying EU lies too long, or I&#8217;m completely normal like you and I can see the riots in Greece, and protests throughout the EU, which tell me that people are not happy.</p>
<p>They are striking about anything from the price of bread (cost of living), to immigration, to retirement ages, austerity measures, layoff&#8217;s, unemployment, capitalist b&#8217;stards who take your eyes out, climate change, aid to foreign countries, GM crops, babies being aborted, babies not being aborted, the age of consent for homosexuals, Islam, oh&#8230;.and 1,001 other reasons to display why they are totally sick with their governments.</p>
<p>But even with all that I can boil it down to economics as to why the EU will fail because a single currency with fluctuating markets, is quite impossible to hold together unless you have one political system.</p>
<p>It may have dawned on people for instance that Germany and France make most cars as an example, and that Germany has the steel production and Poland is still digging coal whilst some French cars are made there to help keep Poland&#8217;s economic head above water. It hasn&#8217;t gone unnoticed by French car workers who are out of work either. But there are twenty seven different retirement ages across Europe too, along with mass immigration into every country where jobs are scarce, car workers are out on their ears, and are presumably being told their skills are no good when they apply for that job taken by a foreigner.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s another story of course when you look at where the biggest problems lie in Greece, Spain, and Portugal, which just happen to be major holiday and retirement destinations for many Europeans.</p>
<p>Certainly their economies took a major tumble on tourist trade along with their construction industries which are seeing massive areas of empty tables in one time busy resorts, and half built yet vacated properties which were once intended to fund their economic expansions.</p>
<p>So Greece borrowed in order to sustain its economy and Spain has just seized two banks which would otherwise fail for reason of defaulted property loans, owing to&#8230;..a lack of ability to meet mortgage payments on&#8230;.property. (Add retiring Brits to that).</p>
<p>So the sensible thing to do of course would be for Greece, Spain and Portugal, and possibly Italy, to create another currency for markets built not on industry but on tourism.</p>
<p>e.g. Like the Lira, Peseta and Escudo for instance&#8230;..like they already had before they were &#8216;conned&#8217; into accepting a single currency.</p>
<p>It would make sense to do this of course before the entire economy of Europe collapses under the weight of debt which cannot be repaid without an industrial base and plenty of customers, or a restoration of tourist trade. But when the rest of Europe is NOT making its citizens more wealthy for reason their jobs, educations and services are taken up &#8211; by foreigners -, and there&#8217;s a rather sizeable cost incurred for that along with the 20 million illegal immigrants in Europe, then something has to give quite quickly if the EU single currency is not to fail entirely.</p>
<p>Perhaps that is one reason why investors are buying dollars instead of Euro&#8217;s, and why the Euro is tumbling in value but as I say, I&#8217;m only guessing.</p>
<p>What do you think?</p>
<p>Oh, by the way don&#8217;t go asking Cameron or Clegg, because one hasn&#8217;t a clue and the other has that many EU stars in his eyes he can&#8217;t see the EU wood for the EU tree which is about to hit him.</p>

Europe&#8217;s &#8220;man in the street&#8221; was misled for years over the vast political and economic implications of the creation of &#8220;Euroland&#8221;, Herman Van Rompuy has admitted.<br />
emphasis mine.<br />
The EU&#8217;s president told a selected audience of civil servants and businessmen that the Greek debt crisis and euro zone bailout had come as a nasty shock to ordinary Europeans.<br />
He said the public was not made aware of the full social and economic implications of the currency before it was created.<br />
&#8220;Nobody ever told the proverbial man in the street that sharing a single currency was not just about making peoples&#8217; lives easier when doing business or travelling abroad, but also about being directly affected by economic developments in the neighbouring countries,&#8221; he said on Tuesday evening. &#8220;Being in the &#8216;Euro zone&#8217; means, monetarily speaking, being part of one &#8216;Euroland&#8217;.&#8221; <strong><em>Just because Van Rumpey was a small time politician when the EU was being set up does not make him an innocent in the debacle</em><br />
</strong><br />
Public anger over the cost of supporting other euro zone governments, so far totalling £470 billion in taxpayer funded loans or guarantees, has created new political instability, especially in Germany.<br />
Angela Merkel, the German Chancellor and her coalition government, lost its parliamentary majority two weeks ago following a furious reaction to a Greek bail-out that cost Germany&#8217;s taxpayers £19 billion.<br />
Public rage has since grown after Chancellor Merkel was last week forced to push through another £105 billion in loan guarantees intended to shore up southern European governments that most Germans regard as victims of their own profligate spending.<br />
Opinion polling published by Germany&#8217;s Stern magazine yesterday found that over three quarters of Germans now believe that their country&#8217;s national debt is out of control, a figure that has risen by 62 per cent since the euro bailouts.<br />
In the first public admission of the scale of the popular backlash, Mr Van Rompuy acknowledged that &#8220;growing public awareness&#8221; of the euro zone&#8217;s problems was &#8220;a major political development.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Today, people are discovering what a &#8216;common destiny&#8217; in monetary matters means. They are discovering that the euro affects their pensions, savings, and jobs, their very daily life. It hurts,&#8221; he said.<br />
José Manuel Barroso, the Commission President, has criticised Mrs Merkel for not taking on opponents to the euro bailouts.<br />
&#8220;Until now Germany has been one of the big winners from the euro. More politicians in Germany should say that clearly,&#8221; he told the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung. &#8220;It was not Greece, Ireland or Spain who invented the euro. It was a German-French project.&#8221; <strong><em>Mr Barroso is annoyed that one of his coterie has expressed a sentiment he does not agree with. Nothing wrong with Spain and Portugal wanting a suck of the teat eh? He was more than happy to have his own country join in but is now upset that the big boys are whingeing about having to support the failing economies of the PIIGS. </em></strong><br />
The President of the European Council, the body that brings together EU leaders in summits, also confessed that the euro had been flawed from the moment of its creation in 1992, a situation that had not been made clear to voters.<strong><em>it was not flawed they lied to us</em></strong><br />
&#8220;We are clearly confronted with a tension within the system, the ill-famous dilemma of being a monetary union and not a full-fledged economic and political union,&#8221; he said. &#8220;This tension has been there since the single currency was created. However, the general public was not really made aware of it.&#8221; <strong><em> what does Barroso mean, &#8220;not really made aware of it&#8221;? they lied to us</em></strong></p>
<p>Research published by Open Europe http://www.openeurope.org.uk/media-centre/pressrelease.aspx?pressreleaseid=139 yesterday highlighted the contradictory statements made by EU leaders during the euro zone crisis, including Mrs Merkel&#8217;s assertion two months ago that &#8220;there is no possibility of paying to bail-out states in difficulty&#8221;. <strong><em>What made her change her mind, could it have been the fact that if one of the PIIGS went tits up the rest of them would follow and the whole monstrous structure of the EU would collapse around their scrawny necks? The euro would be more useful as a bogroll than a currency, and the takeover of the European Nation states by the NWO and its one size fits all totalitarian government would be damaged beyond repair.</em></strong><br />
Vincenzo Scarpetta, an analyst for the pressure group, said: &#8220;The euro zone crisis is not simply about economic failure but also a breakdown in trust between the political class and European citizens <strong><em>Nations</em></strong>. The EU elite simply got it wrong on the euro.&#8221; <strong><em>They did not get it wrong, they knew exactly what they were doing, and fortunately for us, circumstances have produced events that reveal the full extent of the conspiracy.</em></strong></p>

<p>I hereby propose that a new fund be set up. This fund will be voluntarily contributed to by any member of the public who feels they have an obligation, duty or desire for the welfare of migrant workers from the EU and asylum seekers.</p>
<p>All welfare services for such individuals will be financed from the fund, including medical costs, housing rental costs, work seeker allowance etc. Immigrants and asylum seekers who are able to find employment, will be expected to contribute a small amount to this fund, in the form of a new IARF tax, this gives those fortunate enough to receive assistance an opportunity to say &#8220;thank you&#8221; by helping other hapless immigrants and asylum seekers.</p>
<p>This fund helps to ensure that the costs of such services are not unjustly imposed upon the general public but are borne by those who have a desire to assist such people.</p>
<p>Naturally the size of this fund and the degree to which members of the public who have excess money around, contribute, will limit the number of people who are able to be assisted in any given year.</p>
<p>This will address the growing problem of our public services being burdened by ever growing numbers of claimants.</p>

		</p><p>As the MSM are more than ever committed to their smear campaign against the British National Party, nationalists will be delighted to hear that only two national newspapers record a year-on-year slight increase in their circulations last month, according to figures released today by the Audit Bureau of Circulations.</p>
<p>The Independent on Sunday recorded a year-on-year rise in circulation of 1.88 per cent to a weekly average of 168,151 in April, while the Daily Star saw its circulation rise by an almost negligible 0.05 per cent to a daily average of 823,025.</p>
<p>In stark contrast, The Observer, The Sunday Telegraph, The Guardian, The Times and The Daily Telegraph all recorded double digit declines in circulation year-on-year.</p>
<p>National newspaper circulation figures for April 2010 (source ABC)</p>
<p>Figures given are per issue sale for the month and percentage change year on year</p>
<p>Daily Mirror 1,239,691 -6.13</p>
<p>Daily Record 331,012 -7.08</p>
<p>Daily Star 823,025 0.05</p>
<p>The Sun 2,955,957 -0.06</p>
<p>Daily Express 665,731 -8.26</p>
<p>Daily Mail 2,096,074 -3.86</p>
<p>The Daily Telegraph 683,220 -11.81</p>
<p>Financial Times 386,590 -8.19</p>
<p>The Guardian 288,917 -15.83</p>
<p>The Independent 188,119 -7.98</p>
<p>The Times 506,997 -14.18</p>
<p>Daily Star Sunday 348,188 -2.64</p>
<p>News of the World 2,905,780 -1.04</p>
<p>Sunday Mirror 1,124,080 -7.63</p>
<p>The People 530,117 -8.31</p>
<p>Sunday Express 574,323 -9.90</p>
<p>The Mail on Sunday 1,983,283 -4.40</p>
<p>Independent on Sunday 168,151 1.88</p>
<p>The Observer 331,791 -21.30</p>
<p>The Sunday Telegraph 510,146 -10.84</p>
<p>The Sunday Times 1,135,077 -7.09</p>
<p>It&#8217;s interesting to see that the newspapers with the sharpest decline are the ones that printed more lies about the BNP.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s worth remembering that the Daily Telegraph and Sunday Telegraph used to say BNP members are a bunch of idiots whereas the Times and Sunday Times printed stories based on lies to stop people supporting us.</p>
<p>Clearly nationalists have voted with their pockets and decided to boycott them, and apparently this strategy is working because their decline in circulation is putting pressure on their balance sheets and some are planning job cuts in order to reduce their losses.</p>
<p>This trend is unlikely to be reversed until media tycoons understand that by pandering to the NUJ they are digging their own grave as people have had enough of their lies and propaganda.</p>

		</p><p>Nationalists know only too well that the European Union is undemocratic and very dangerous.</p>
<p>Below you will find an interesting article published in Pravda written by a columnist disillusioned with the EU.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s worth a reading because it proves anti-EU ideas are spreading fast to countries that used to support the European Union.</p>
<p>The Monster that is the European Union</p>
<p>The European Union is the most undemocratic of institutions which exists only to serve the interests of those who for some reason are unable or unfit to enter the political hierarchy in their own member states and who pander to the interests of a clique of schemers and dreamers living in cloud cuckoo land under some demented illusion of a Quixotic chimera: a united Europe.</p>
<p> I was born outside the European Union in a country whose government had the bright idea to enter, without holding a referendum. I moved from this country to another one in Europe but outside the Union &#8211; Portugal. Again, the Government of this country decided to join. Without asking anyone. Nobody asked me where or how the money should be spent, nobody asked my opinion as to whether the structural funds were being well applied.</p>
<p>The US economist Michael Porter was asked to write a report, which was received with a scoffed sneer of derision by the Government of the then Prime Minister Anibal Silva (now President of Portugal), the man who claimed rarely to be in the wrong and usually in the right, through whose hands billions of Euros passed.</p>
<p>For what? The immediate result was a policy of public works which has gone on unabated in Portugal since the mid-1980s without producing any tangible results other than socio-economic indicators which become ever more depressing as countries like Cyprus and Malta move up the table and Portugal flounders and sinks lower and lower.</p>
<p>It is ironic that today a group of ex-Ministers of Finance of Portugal should be visiting President Silva, when it was precisely he who was the father of massive public spending in Portugal. Nobody asked me if I wanted Maastricht, nobody asked me if I wanted Nice, nobody asked me if I wanted the Treaty of Lisbon. Nobody asked me if I wanted to join the Euro and promptly see prices shoot up three-, four- or five-fold while salaries remained the same.</p>
<p>Nobody told me in any political manifesto that the ones who really control my pension and standard of living, the ones who really control the amount of taxes I pay at the end of the day are some faceless anonymities working in some rating agency on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean called Moody&#8217;s or Standard and Poors or Fitch.</p>
<p>They are the ones who unilaterally and anti-democratically attach some credit rating to Spain or Portugal or the Republic of Ireland or Italy or Greece (suppose we call them SPRIGs, symbolizing hope, instead of the derogatory &#8220;PIGS&#8221; which is an insult to those of us who worked hard all our lives in these countries?) And this credit rating has a direct effect on the coupons (interests) attached to the bonds, or national debt both at maturity (when the time for payment expires) and also upon the ability to sell new bonds (which affects income).</p>
<p>Nobody asked me if I wanted such a ludicrous scheme imposed on me, nobody told me that the financial system being created was unsustainable and subject to speculative raids. Not one single Government or European Institution has protected me even though I have spent decades fulfilling each and every single prerequisite that has been placed upon me.</p>
<p>Now as I near the age to receive my pension, because of the weird and wonderful anti-democratic European Union and its enlightened Eurocrats, I do not even know if I will have one. I do not know if I will receive my holiday subsidy. I do not know if the income I am supposed to receive will be available.</p>
<p>If this is the European Union, then I believe it is time to move one third and final time outside it and this time, never to come back in again.</p>

		</p><p><strong>The Germans are revolting against the EU</strong> http://tinyurl.com/3528amu</p>
<p><strong>Oh boy, the citizens of the big industrialised economies of the first world are waking up at last. Angela Merkels New World Order is collapsing around her clay feet, and despite desperate attempts to fend off criticism the sleepers are waking to the truth. The fact of the matter is the EU is a control freak organisation but only so long as they can keep their agenda secret. The truth is dawning on the German people as they are forced to pay for their own enslavement, working all the years God sends to support a new Third World country, Greece is the first of them to fall by the wayside the other PIIGS will be close behind.</strong></p>
<p><strong>We are the schmucks of Europe yet again!</strong><br />
11.05.2010 &#8211; 10:54 UHR<br />
BY NIKOLAUS BLOME</p>
<p>The EU and the Eurozone want to spend a massive €750bn to save the European currency. Germany alone will have to fork out €123bn for its bankrupt neighbours.<br />
But there is now not enough money for the planned tax cuts!<br />
Are we really the schmucks of Europe?<br />
Chancellor Angela Merkel said: “We are protecting the money of people in Germany.”<br />
REALLY?<br />
The vast credit line has been made available by the EU Commission, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and Euro states to failing countries including Spain and Portugal. It allows them to borrow money if they cannot do so on the financial markets.<br />
And the lion’s share of that cash – up to €123 billion – is coming from Germany. If it is not paid back, the taxpayer will be left out of pocket.<br />
Just like with the Greek bailout!<br />
In plain language: If more Euro states are forced to their knees under the weight of their debts, the countries which have not lived beyond their means for the last ten years will step in to help out. And above all that means Germany. Moderate wage agreements, moderate pensions schemes – but if needs be then we have to pay the bill.<br />
And there is more falling by the wayside: With reference to ‘emergency’ article 122, governments can sidestep the Euro contract that…<br />
…forbids the raising of credit by the EU Commission for Euro states;<br />
…bars the European Central Bank (ECB) from buying bonds from Euro states;<br />
…bans economically sound countries from helping out those in debt.<br />
IN ORDER TO SAVE THE EURO, POLITICIANS ARE RISKING ITS FUTURE. WHY? WHAT PRESSURES ARE THERE TO DO THIS?<br />
Flashback to the past Friday at an EU summit in Brussels: Until late in the evening the heads of state struggled to agree a deal on the billions in aid. ECB chief  Jean-Claude Trichet eventually held a metaphorical pistol to their heads, warning – like IMF boss Dominique Strauss-Kahn – of a ‘meltdown’ the following Monday if nothing happened.<br />
On Friday the money markets were hit just like they were before the Lehman Brothers collapse, sending out a red alert.<br />
And so Chancellor Merkel capitulated. She knew that the policy was being pushed by the banks and financial markets. Yet again.<br />
Negotiations on the details took place until Sunday evening. Merkel insisted that the emergency credit would only be available to a country which had become the subject of an IMF austerity programme AND that the majority of the credit (€440bn limited to three years) would be administered by Euro states and not the European Commission.<br />
Nevertheless, barely anything remains from the original Euro stability contract. The stock markets reacted yesterday with a jump upwards (DAX was up 4.5 per cent), while the Euro itself rose only slightly.<br />
Experts remain wary. No one knows what will happen in the long run.<br />
Economics expert Christoph Schmidt told BILD: “We did really not want to have European monetary union like this. It happened the opposite way to what we Germans were told at that time under stable monetary policy and with an independent central bank.<br />
“The Euro funds only bought the government time, nothing more.”<br />
Members of parliament belonging to the two parties in Germany’s ruling coalition, the CDU/CSU and the FDP, are also wary of the ECB’s autonomy. They must decide on the aid package in the Bundestag over the next few weeks.<br />
Ex-FDP head Wolfgang Gerhardt told BILD: “Such firefighting actions by the government like those at the weekend must in the future happen whilst allowing for the autonomy of the ECB.”<br />
The FDP’s Patrick Döring demanded the rapid creation of a European ratings agency and banking charges.<br />
And anyone who still believed there was enough money in Germany for a cut in taxes was put straight at 1.34pmon Monday, when the Chancellor casually announced in a toneless voice: “Reductions in tax will in the foreseeable future not be achievable.”</p>
<p><strong>Because?</strong></p>

		</p><p>Just a few interesting (frightening) facts about Gordon Brown</p>
<p>We used to have 6 independent regulators to regulate the different divisions<br />
of the financial services industry, including our Banks.<br />
(Margaret Thatcher knew what the Banks were like and in the 1988 Finance Act she bound the Banks up in regulation to prevent them from being reckless!!!)<br />
Then Gordon Brown became Chancellor on 6th May 1997<br />
Gordon&#8217;s banker friends said &#8220;We want all these regulators to go&#8221;<br />
&#8220;We don&#8217;t want regulators watching everything we do&#8221;<br />
AND GORDON SAID OK<br />
So, Gordon announced on the 20th May 1997 (2 weeks after becoming Chancellor) that the six regulatory bodies would be broken up and a new Financial Services Authority would replace them. The FSA had virtually no powers over the Banks and he also took away the powers from the Bank of England to enforce regulation on them.<br />
The result is the devastation we are all suffering today.</p>
<p>We used to have a Monopolies and Mergers Commission<br />
Then Gordon&#8217;s banker friends said we don&#8217;t want the Monopolies and Mergers commission telling us who we can and cant &#8220;Take Over&#8221;<br />
AND GORDON SAID OK<br />
So, in 1998 Gordon scrapped the Monopolies and Mergers Commission and created a replacement called the Competition Commission, with very much reduced powers and  different ideas of what used to be regarded as a &#8220;Monopoly&#8221;.<br />
The result is the Massive Corporations we have today who are ruling and shaping our lives for their own benefit and profits. Not to mention the massive Monopolies held by some of these corporations through the forced purchases of all their competitors</p>
<p>We used to have pension regulations, which for many decades had included something called &#8220;The Pensions Cap&#8221;<br />
The pensions cap set a limit on how much pension any scheme member (including directors) could get from an occupational pension scheme, irrespective of how high their earnings were.<br />
It was there to protect the ordinary members pensions. To prevent Directors paying themselves obscene salaries and then draining the pension funds with huge pensions.<br />
Then Gordon Brown&#8217;s banker friends said that they wanted the pensions cap removing so that they could get pensions related to their obscene earnings.<br />
(The whole Pensions industry gave him warnings of the effects it would have. Even the Inland revenue put forward objections)<br />
BUT GORDON SAID OK<br />
Because Gordon never likes to disappoint his banker friends<br />
So Gordon took away the Pensions Cap in 2005 and then some of his friends were able to leave their boardroom positions with huge pensions!!!<br />
For example Fred Goodwin was apparently entitled to a pension of over £700,000<br />
If Gordon had left the pensions cap in place that would have been a mere £125,000<br />
Well done Fred and your mates!!!</p>
<p>(The Superannuations Division of the Inland Revenue have kept a record of what it should be, in readiness for when we get a new chancellor who sees fit to re-instate it. The record of Pensions Cap limits are available to view on the Revenue&#8217;s website</p>
<p>The result of this is that along with Gordon&#8217;s &#8220;Tax Raid&#8221; on pension funds starting July 1997, over four thousand UK company pension scheme&#8217;s have closed their doors to new members and many of them have had to close down altogether, leaving millions of workers without any pension provision.<br />
This man Gordon Brown &#8220;professes to be a socialist and &#8220;for&#8221; the working man<br />
The working man&#8217;s main form of long term financial security had for many years been his company pension scheme, something to look forward to at the end of a life of hard work, his reward, light at the end of a long dark tunnel.<br />
Gordon has put an end to that by destroying the most valuable asset<br />
of the average British worker.</p>
<p>IT IS ONE OF THE GREATEST TRAVESTIES OF JUSTICE THAT THIS MAN WHO PRETENDS TO BE &#8220;FOR THE WORKING MAN&#8221; HAS IN FACT BEEN HIS WORST ENEMY FOR THE LAST THIRTEEN YEARS AND WILL LEAVE A LEGACY THAT WE WILL STILL BE CLEARING UP FOR MANY YEARS TO COME.<br />
THE REAL INJUSTICE IS THAT ITS ALL BEEN DONE IN AREAS WHICH ARE TOTALLY OUT OF SIGHT TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC AND BEYOND THE UNDERSTANDING MANY</p>
<p>GORDON RELIES ENTIRELY ON PEOPLES IGNORANCE TO GET AWAY WITH<br />
HIS INDISCRETIONS</p>
<p>GORDON&#8217;S MOTTO OF:<br />
&#8220;DENY EVERYTHING AND ADMIT NOTHING&#8221;<br />
SEEMS TO BE WORKING QUITE WELL FOR HIM SO FAR!!!</p>
<p>LASTLY, WHAT GORDON LIKES TO CALL THE &#8220;GLOBAL BANKING CRISIS&#8221;</p>
<p>Have you noticed that we were the first to be in it and are the last to be out<br />
(and whether we are out is very speculative!!!)</p>
<p>As he has openly admitted, The Royal Bank of Scotland was the worlds biggest bank.<br />
So when RBS and HBOS were about to go BUST in October 2008 and they had to be bailed out overnight so they did not take the entire country down with them, (that by the way was almost certainly a decision made by the hierarchy in Whitehall for which Gordon loves to take the credit)</p>
<p>As the worlds leading banks now all lend  money to each other on a collosal scale, isn&#8217;t it obvious that the worlds biggest bank going down would have a devastating effect on all the others it dealt with.<br />
This &#8220;worlds biggest bank&#8221; had also sold bad mortgage books to other banks.</p>
<p>Most of the Banks in Europe which ran into crisis were dragged into it because of the crooked dealings of our big Banks. A fact that both Germany and France were quick to remind Gordon Brown of at the G20 emergency meeting shortly after the crisis.</p>
<p>There are many other of Gordon&#8217;s indiscretions, far too many to list here, but perhaps the few biggie&#8217;s shown above will give some insight into how Gordon operates.</p>
<p>By the way have you noticed how he has suddenly become interested in Social issues now an election is looming and seems to be able to promise the world when, as Alistair Darling put it a few days ago, there is not a penny left in the bank!!!</p>
<p>Think very carefully before casting your vote for this man who is probably the most extreme capitalist of the past century while pretending to be<br />
&#8220;for the working man&#8221;.</p>
<p>GORDON WORSHIPS THE SUPER RICH AND POWERFUL AND<br />
CANNOT SAY NO TO THEM</p>

		</p><p>As the MSM starts another smear campaign against the British National Party nationalists will be very happy to hear that in March the circulation of newspapers, apart few exceptions, fell again.</p>
<p>Circulation of The Observer fell by more than 23 per cent year-on-year in its first full month after relaunching.</p>
<p>The Observer had an average circulation of 331,488 each week in March, a drop of 23.9 per cent from the same month the previous year and its lowest figure since August 1962, as all but one quality Sunday paper suffered double-digit falls.</p>
<p>Circulation of The Observer, which is the oldest Sunday newspaper in the world, fell by just under 100,000 copies from the 431,017 it circulated in March last year, however, in the intervening period it has ceased the sale of bulks &#8211; copies readers can pick up free from hotels, airlines and gyms – of which it distributed 22,737 in March, 2009.</p>
<p>The Observer, which relaunched in a slimmed down version on 21 February, has also been scaling down its overseas sale. It was cut from 36,645 in March last year to 19,018 last month &#8211; a reduction of 17,627.</p>
<p>Overall the joint circulation of all quality Sunday papers dropped 12.40 per cent year-on-year last month with only the Independent on Sunday avoiding a double-digit drop. Its circulation fell by 8.03 per cent year-on-year to a weekly average of 154,285.</p>
<p>The Sunday Times recorded a circulation drop of 10.38 per cent year-on-year to an average weekly circulation of 1,111,660 last month &#8211; it remained the biggest selling quality Sunday paper.</p>
<p>The fall in circulation of Sunday Times can, in part, be explained by it ending the sale of the few bulks it distributed and a reduction in its overseas sale from 50,696 in March, 2009, to 43,421 last month.</p>
<p>Last March the paper&#8217;s sales were also increased as it gave away an 11 track Noel Gallagher CD mid-month.</p>
<p>The Sunday Telegraph recorded a fall in circulation of 11.79 per cent year-on-year last month to a weekly average of 509,754.</p>
<p>Falls in the Sunday market were almost matched in the daily quality sector where all papers, bar the Financial Times, recorded a double-digit circulation decline.</p>
<p>The cut-price 20p Daily Star was the only national newspaper of any type to rise year on year – up 0.87 per cent to 827,005. The Sun, which is also on sale for 20p in much of the UK, put in a relatively strong performance down 2.04 per cent year on year to stay just above the three million mark.</p>
<p>With nearly all newspapers losing sales, the Mail titles were at least able to boast that they had increased their market share today.</p>
<p>Associated Newspapers said in a press release that the Daily Mail increased its market share by 0.5 per cent to 20.2 per cent while the Mail on Sunday grew 0.9 per cent to 18.8 per cent.</p>

<p>We have said it before, and we will say it again. The editors of those papers are paying the price of their own arrogance and contempt for their readers.</p>
<p>More and more people are realizing that newspapers are the mouthpiece of the treacherous and corrupt liberal elite that is destroying this country, but thanks to the internet the people have an unbiased source of information.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s hope that one or more of them go bankrupt sooner rather than later.</p>

		</p><p>The UK Border Agency has been asked to cut its staff by up to 30% because of budgetary constraints but apparently, like many part of the public sector, it always find a way to waste money in useless projects.</p>
<p>It has emerged that under a new scheme migrants are to be asked whether they like living in the UK and if the immigration system is working properly.</p>
<p>The UK Border Agency (UKBA) is spending tens of thousands of pounds on the survey, which will involve quizzing thousands of new arrivals.</p>
<p>The survey aims to &#8216;explore the perceptions&#8217; of a wide range of migrants &#8211; including asylum seekers, refugees, economic migrants, foreign students and immigrants joining their families in the UK.</p>
<p>It states that in order to &#8216;address a key evidence gap&#8217; in its data it needs a &#8216;sample size&#8217; of between 4,000 and 6,000 migrants to help &#8216;develop&#8217; Government immigration policy.</p>
<p>The UKBA &#8211; which is run by the Home Office &#8211; states that it wants to &#8216;conduct a large-scale face-to-face survey of migrants in the UK&#8217; to find out;</p>
<p>* What &#8216;their experiences&#8217; &#8211; positive and negative &#8211; of living in Britain are<br />
* How they are using public services &#8211; such as libraries, buses, schools and healthcare<br />
* How they are contributing to the UK<br />
* Why they came to live in the UK in the first place &#8211; and whether they intend on staying permanently</p>
<p>The team is expected to interview &#8216;vulnerable&#8217; immigrants who have poor English skills or face deportation because of their asylum status.</p>
<p>The final report , including an analysis of key findings, is due to be handed over the Home Office chiefs by March next year.</p>
<p>Matthew Elliott, chief executive of the TaxPayers&#8217; Alliance, said: &#8216;It is ridiculous to be pandering to the needs of Britain&#8217;s migrant population with a costly survey to ask how they&#8217;re getting on.</p>
<p>&#8216;If they didn&#8217;t like the UK they wouldn&#8217;t have moved here in the first place, they are clearly able to vote with their feet and this is a foolish waste of taxpayers&#8217; money.</p>
<p>&#8216;Taxpayers will rightly be worried that the Home Office will use the conclusions of this survey to try and justify new spending, at a time when all government departments should be looking to make savings.&#8217;</p>
<p>Maybe they should ask how many of those newcomers manage to get big houses, expensive cars, brand new plasma TVs and have an high lifestyle at a time when many people born in the UK can barely afford to put food on the table.</p>
<p>I checked the date, it&#8217;s not the 1st of April.</p>
<p>You couldn&#8217;t make it up.</p>

<p>The Unite Union&#8217;s backing of the Labour party has come under some real scrutiny following their decision to strike over the BA situation. How can Gordon Brown act in the best interest of the country if his party has taken £11m in donations from the Union that is causing so much disruption?</p>
<p>A poll carried out by<a href="http://populuslimited.com/uploads/download_pdf-160309-Unite-Poll-of-Unite-Members.pdf"> Populus </a>this time last year shows that the majority of Unite&#8217;s membership are actually NOT supporters of the Labour party. So why are Unite donating so much of their members&#8217; money to Labour? Here are some fascinating results from the poll:</p>
<blockquote><p>66% of Unite members would not vote Labour if a General Election was called today</p>
<p>Only 32% of Unite members believe that the Labour party share their values</p>
<p>Only 25% of Unite members believe that the Labour party leadership is honest and principled</p>
<p>Only 30% of Unite members believe that the Labour party leadership is competent and capable</p>
<p>Only 27% of Unite members believe that Gordon Brown is the right person to lead Britain forward after the next general election (Cameron 37%)</p>
<p>58% of Unite members think that Gordon Brown is bad for them and their families</p>
<p>58% of Unite members think that Gordon Brown is not up to the job of being Prime Minister</p>
<p>Only 36% of Unite members believe that it was right for the union to donate £500,000 to Labour in the last three months.</p>
<p>Only 31% of Unite members believe that it is right for the union to donate any further large donations to the Labour party.</p>
<p>59% of Unite members describe themselves as “moving away from the Labour party”</p></blockquote>
<p>So I ask again: why are Unite donating their members money to the Labour party? Hardly democratic is it?</p>

		</p><p>One of the arguments used in support of mass immigration is that, &#8220;without immigrants the NHS would collapse&#8221;.</p>
<p>This is based on a false premiss, tens of thousands of British doctors and nurses cannot get a training job in the NHS, and many of them are forced to look outside the UK for a suitable position.</p>
<p>To make things worse, many foreign doctors and nurses hold dubious qualifications and have a poor grasp of English, thus putting the lives of patients at risk.</p>
<p>The latest example is laid bare by the Daily Mail which reported recently about a bungling foreign nurse who could barely understand English and refused to learn the language.</p>
<p>The Nursing and Midwifery Council heard that Biju John 38, could not even tell one department from another.</p>
<p>The Indian nurse also had a somewhat limited knowledge of basic nursing skills, and did nothing when a patient was struggling to breathe, the tribunal was told.</p>
<p>The council heard that John should have started basic airway management as the man gasped for breath after coming round from an operation.</p>
<p>But instead he had to be helped by a colleague who rushed over when he heard the man&#8217;s wheezing from the other side of the ward.</p>
<p>The tribunal was told John almost caused another patient to go into anaphylactic shock when he wore latex gloves to treat him despite being told he was allergic to the material.</p>
<p>John, who trained in India before starting work on the Peri Anaesthetic Care Unit (PACU) at Leicester Royal Infirmary in 2003, often could not understand what staff or patients were telling him, the tribunal was told.</p>
<p>But John insisted he was able to understand instructions and wrote to the tribunal stating: &#8216;I never be confused at all.&#8217;(sic)</p>
<p>Deborah Baljit, for the NMC, told the hearing: &#8216;The predominant concerns were his communication skills and his ability to understand instructions and react to them.</p>
<p>&#8216;He did not complete the English lessons he was told to undertake, nor did he enrol at the college.</p>
<p>&#8216;He had to take responsibility for taking English lessons but it appears that he failed to do so.&#8217;</p>
<p>As a new staff member, John was already on a period of supervised practice but this was extended when he failed to meet the hospital&#8217;s required standards.</p>
<p>The incident with the latex gloves occurred a few weeks into the job in July 2003.</p>
<p>The hospital devised a set of objectives for John to meet, which included completing an assessment of basic nursing skills and meeting a required standard of English so he could effectively communicate with staff and colleagues.</p>
<p>But he failed to reach the targets that had been set for him and was kept on supervised practice.</p>
<p>After further problems, a disciplinary meeting was scheduled for January 20, 2005 but John quit seven days before. He was later reported to his regulating body.</p>
<p>Ms Baljit added: &#8216;Given the intensive support and assistance, he was still unable to achieve the competencies required of him.&#8217;</p>
<p>John, from Cambridge, was found guilty of seven charges relating to his lack of competency when he worked at the hospital between July 2003 and December 2004.</p>
<p>These include failing to complete basic skills required of a nurse, not demonstrating his English was sufficient to communicate with colleagues effectively, which gave rise to the incident with the latex gloves, and failing to take appropriate action when a patient&#8217;s oxygen levels dropped.</p>
<p>He was cleared of mistaking the Surgical Assessment Unit for the Surgical Acute Care Unit.</p>
<p>I am surprised to hear that the hospital this Indian nurse worked at had not taken action before these events, but I suspect its managers had no wish to be accused of  &#8217;institutional racism&#8217;, because we nationalists know only too well how the EHRC is ready at the drop of a hat to take legal action against anyone they think is discriminating against blacks and Asians.</p>
<p>How many patients need to die before this absurd policy of  positive discrimination, regardless of ability is stopped?</p>
<p>Hiring foreign health staff is not only an insult to all the British medical students who spend many years, qualifying for a medical degree or a nursing qualifications, but it&#8217;s also causing problems for developing countries.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s worth reminding anyone that accuses us of being racist, that African and Asian countries blame us for poaching their  medical staff who are badly needed back home.</p>
<p>British jobs for British doctors and nurses would benefit Britain as well as developing countries, but not one of the three main parties has plans to change policy anytime soon.</p>

		</p><p>It is a given, that in the IT sector native Britons are discriminated against in favour of much cheaper Indian applicants.</p>
<p>Employers keep saying there is a huge shortage of highly skilled workers but we know for a fact that many British IT experts cannot find a job.</p>
<p>We (BNP) have been accused of telling lies every time we said that the shortage of IT workers was created on purpose so as to replace British technicians with foreign ones,&#8217; and once again we have been proved right.</p>
<p>In fact, according to a local paper, a storm has erupted over a job advertisement for a computer consultant, specifying that applicants should preferably be of Indian origin.</p>
<p>Monmouth MP David Davies expressed outrage over the advert for the £38,000 post that read: “Minimum six years of experience in IT&#8230; The person should be a UK citizen with security clearance from the UK Government. Preferably of Indian origin.”</p>
<p>Mr Davies, whose attention was drawn to the advert for the Bristol- based job by a constituent, said: “I’m outraged by this advert. It is quite clearly racist, in my opinion. I have reported it to the Equalities and Human Rights Commission in the hope for once that they might take action against something that discriminates against most British people.”</p>
<p>The row follows concern about the recruitment policy of a meat processing firm in East Anglia is insisting that all its staff speak fluent Polish.</p>
<p>Forza AW has effectively barred anyone but Poles from applying for jobs on its production line, claiming a knowledge of the language is necessary, as all health and safety training is conducted in Polish.</p>
<p>Mr Davies said: “I call on the Equality and Human Rights Commission to show some resolute action in dealing with cases of anti-British discrimination.”</p>
<p>IT consultant Vince Silva, who lives in Devauden near Chepstow, told Mr Davies about the advert, which he spotted on the recruitment website www.jobsite.co.uk</p>
<p>Mr Silva said: “I have never seen a recruitment advert like this before, and think it is appalling that job applicants could be discriminated against in this way.</p>
<p>“It raises a wider question about the way in which some big companies in Britain are bringing in IT workers from abroad instead of recruiting them here.</p>
<p>“Both the UK Government and the Welsh Assembly Government are investing a lot  in educating young people in IT skills at schools and colleges. Yet the number of job opportunities are limited because big firms are choosing to recruit trained workers from countries like India. We all know that times are tough in the recession, and surely we should be doing more to help our own people.</p>
<p>“I’m not knocking the workers from India at all – they are highly skilled and can do a good job. It’s the companies themselves that should examine what they’re doing.”</p>
<p>Mr Silva said he was also interested in whether a future Conservative government would insist that British firms and British workers would benefit from future public sector IT contracts.</p>
<p>“The Americans certainly engage in protectionism. Why shouldn’t we?” he said.</p>
<p>The advert seeking an IT consultant of preferably Indian origin was put on the website by a London-based recruitment company called McGregor Boyall Associates. The firm’s website states: “McGregor Boyall Associates operates a diversity and inclusion policy. We believe that progressive, diverse organisations think and act more broadly, imaginatively and, ultimately, effectively.”</p>
<p>We spoke to the recruitment consultant responsible for the advert, Farhaan Majid. He told us: “This is a mistake. I put the advert through like this when I shouldn’t have done. I shall now make sure it is taken down at once.”</p>
<p>Asked how the error had been made, he said: “Some companies prefer to employ people of Indian origin because they are immediately available and don’t mind moving. Often people in Britain living in Birmingham or London have mortgages and don’t want to move.”</p>
<p>Mr Majid said the advert had been placed on behalf of an IT firm called Torry Harris, which has bases in Bristol and Bangalore, India.</p>
<p>Torry Harris refused to comment.</p>
<p>A spokeswoman for jobsite.co.uk, which is owned by Associated Northcliffe Digital, part of the group that publishes the Daily Mail, said regular advertisers were allowed to upload advertisements onto the website themselves.</p>
<p>She said: “We take steps to ensure that only responsible advertisers can upload advertisements. We don’t check the content of the adverts before they go up – that would be impractical for us and slow down the process of getting them online for potential applicants to see.</p>
<p>“Under the contract we have with advertisers, they take total responsibility for the contents.”</p>
<p>Laurie Boyle, managing director of McGregor Boyall Associates, said last night: “This was an error – a bad one, but the first of its kind we have made in 22 years.</p>
<p>“It should not have been put up, and was cut and pasted from material sent to us by a client in India.</p>
<p>“We have immediately begun a review of all our systems to see what we can do to stop something like this happening. I shall be dealing with our consultant who made this error in the morning.”</p>
<p>A spokeswoman for the Advertising Standards Authority said it would refer a case of this kind to the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC).</p>
<p>An EHRC spokesman said: “It is unlawful to discriminate against a job applicant on the basis of their nationality/ethnic origin unless there are genuine occupational reasons to do so. We have already responded to Mr Davies and informed him that we will be looking into the matter.”</p>
<p>Whereas Mr Davies deserves some credit for criticizing mass immigration, the truth is that he is too scared to talk openly about that for fear of being accused of racism.</p>
<p>He is not alone, the Conservative Party he belongs to for far too long has endorsed the kind of policies that are destroying Britain and many kept mum because they didn&#8217;t want to be seen as nasty.</p>
<p>This is why the British National Party is getting more support, in spite of the smear campaigns carried out by MSM, and attempts made by all the other political parties to stop us by undemocratic means.</p>
<p>After all why does David Cameron needs UAF thugs to threaten and intimidate our activists?</p>
<p>He may he stands up for the interests of British workers but in reality he wants to be part of the corrupt liberal elite, committed to destroy Britain and anyone like the BNP who are prepared to take a stand against their evil plans.</p>
<p>Small wonder that the Tory&#8217; lead in the poll is shrinking, why people should vote for a Tory party that is not conservative anymore?</p>
<p>You couldn&#8217;t make it up.</p>
