McCartney - Divorce or Blackmail?
4 November 2007
The McCartney divorce highlights the problems that are currently faced by British men in the divorce courts.
Faced with an irrational wife it is often impossible to get a negotiated settlement.
This means that the man has to spend years paying a solicitor extortionate amounts of money to write letters and make application to the courts while he is held to ransom.
Solicitors find it highly amusing when the two litigants fall out as it means that they can keep the case going for years.
It is rumoured that Heather McCartney owes her lawyers £1.5million, presumably Paul McCartney will have to pay this bill and his own on top of any settlement.
This is something that routinely happens in most cases with the legal fees sometimes reaching 20% of the settlement.
A strange dichotomy of evidence is that while women are willing to drag out the dirty linen and exaggerate the worst parts of the marital history, men will usually refrain from the mud slinging.
The failure of women to accept that a failed marriage might be fifty percent their responsibility is something that is difficult to fathom especially when they have a lurid past.
You would think that during a legal process overseen by the best legal brains in the country that the result would be legal.
Unfortunately a lot of divorces include fraud and blackmail which the lawyers accept as part of the process.
False statements are routinely logged as legal documents, false financial accounts presented to the courts, legal aid fraudulently claimed and assets hidden.
The lawyers, who should know better, and who are supposed to prevent fraud by reporting it under the Prevention of Crime Act have managed to absolve themselves of any responsibility by winning a precedent allowing them freedom from prosecution.
After having two barristers in 10 Downing Street for ten years it is surprising that British divorce is such a shambles.
Due legal process continues unabated but is this really the best way to achieve a divorce?
Surely it would only take one day in a community court to resolve all the issues if the law was working properly.
As it is couples are at the mercy of unscrupulous lawyers who use all their years of legal skill, experience and ingenuity to extort the maximum amounts of money out of their clients.
Applying for a divorce in this country is like giving your lawyer a winning lottery ticket.
The McCartneys like so many other British couples will be the losers.
Yet again the legal process is failing as it encourages a scenario of Blackmail.
Divorce reform is way overdue.
The 2007 EU Charter
Friday August 31st2007
It appears that the unelected Mr Brown thinks that he can break his parties election pledge to give the country a referendum on the 2007 EU Charter.
Many of the recent negative changes in our society can be traced back to EU directives.
Our prisons are overloaded with foreign nationals who cannot be deported.
Our borders are porous to immigration from the Asia & Africa.
We are being swamped by the new EU nationals from Slovakia, Poland & Romania etc.
Our housing market has been thrown into chaos by the introduction of Home Information Packs (HIP's) by the EU.
Our judges cannot jail terrorists without infringing their human rights.
The disposal of our rubbish has been reduced to one collection a week and the introduction of recycling bins is likely to end up in us being surcharged.
Our army has been starved of equipment and resources to fight in Iraq & Afganistan because of our commitments to the Eurofighter & EU rapid response unit.
EU directives should have been a balanced process which showed some British influence and our international power kept in tact.
And then of course there are the EU taxes about which we are told nothing and the decision to stay out of the Euro zone. Is the Euro likely to be sneaked in as well?
These are all discussions that should be analysed at length yet all discussion so far has been stifled.
So who is likely to benefit from the introduction of this EU charter? It certainly won't be us.
As we have already seen. it's all to do with providing a more powerful trading block so that our companies can compete with the USA, Chinese and the Asian economies.
Improving our economy has not improved the finances of the poorest in our society. It has gone to the tax dodging company directors, the banks and the share holders. Our economy only benefits the rich and the powerful.
The unelected Mr Brown talked big about forming a government of consensus but that is all it is, just talk .
He will stand fast against the unions and the electorate and push this undemocratic EU Charter through at any cost.
A discussion of the issues, an understanding of the situation has not been allowed.
This has been sneaked through parliament during the summer recess.
We deserve to be treated like democrats, we are fighting wars to support democracy in other countries while we are loosing our own democratic rights.
This country was the mother of democracy. If this charter goes through without a referendum we will loose the freedom given to us in 1215 by The Magna Carta.
We will be governed by a faceless unelected corrupt and fatuous bureaucracy.
Support democracy in Britain. Support the call for a referendum on the 2007 EU charter.
Gun Crime
24/08/07
The loss of police control on city streets and the subsequent rise in gun crime is a direct result of the failure of political parties to control the illicit drug culture.
While the deregulation of cannabis was seen as a step in right direction it was not followed up by any serious legal provision for controlling or legalising the supply chain.
Even the tax hungry Gordon Brown has balked at allowing our cigarette manufacturers the licensed production of reefers.
The whole subculture of drugs, theft and the black economy is now such a part of our economy that stamping it out would cause a major rise in unemployment.
Ignoring the problem, though, is likely to allow a further fragmentation of society and more child deaths on the street.
Politics- The Betrayal of Democracy
5. August 2007
As the threat of an autumn election creeps upon us we, the electorate, look to the parties for a dynamic solution to all of Britain's problems.
With the Blair legacy relegated to the past we are now faced with the 'new' New Labour Prime Minister Brown and the fresh faced Conservatism of Cameron.
The issues that will decide the next election with be discussed at length by both these camps leaving the agenda of the electorate well hidden.
From the point of view of the electorate there is no difference between a Labour or a Conservative government. As far as we are concerned they both look after themselves first as we are 'sold down the river.'
We have watched Chancellor Brown create a hundred new stealth taxes, too many to name, that have ripped our wages from our pockets in one way or another.
It has already become quite obvious that Prime Minister Brown is a power freak content to Control & Tax until we bleed.
As Blair fought his daily battles with the Iraq obsessed media, Brown was quietly milking every pound he could possibly steal in every conceivable fashion.
The brazen corruption of MP's both moral and financial was not to be seen in the 'money for honours' debacle but in the complete betrayal of the public finances.
While Murdock was universally attacked for his abuse of the Mirror pension fund, no one has mentioned the £15 billion gaping hole in the government pension fund because it was obviously both political parties who used it to prop up their gross mismanagement.
The greatest recent insult to the electorate must surely have been when the MP's propped up the civil service pension fund (at our expense).
They then gave themselves a fat new wage rise with higher expenses (at our expense) only to be followed by topping up their own pension fund from the public purse.
A breathtaking achievement and all while failing to find a solution to the black hole in our government pension fund.
As a Prime Minister, Brown appears to be hell bent on the State Control of the population.
The fact that democratic principles require our government to represent our collective wishes seems to be an illusion that arrives and departs, like a train, at election time.
The fact that MP's are supposed to work for us has changed forever as they wield their power using the civil service, the councils and the European parliament.
The New Labour party was elected to represent the working class, the impoverished and middle class England
When in power the whole electorate was abandoned as the government was subverted by the rich and the powerful.
With two barristers in 10 Downing Street for ten years this country has seen a depressing distortion of British Law with the introduction of The Human Rights Act, a failure to act against the supporters of terrorism and a complete failure to implement law reform.
The economic and financial institutions have the legal freedom to ensnare the public in their fraudulent schemes and escape unscathed.
The legal professionals waste their time manipulating the vagaries of the law while charging us a years wages. Judges enforce the law against 'the public' while freeing terrorists. The police have been castrated as a force for the control of the city streets.
Our companies are sold to hostile foreign owners who cant believe our naivety as they plunder our assets and send us an inflated bill for it.
The Blair years left us disillusioned with the power of the media to distort events and ultimately history. Forgotten is the historical fact that taxes were created to pay for a war as a temporary measure.
Now we are burdened by an out of control expanding bureaucracy which is eventually likely to bankrupt the country.
Democratically we have lost the power of the Magna Carta, a decree given to us by legacy and squandered in the name of 'The Economy.'
We were given the freedom of England and spared the tyrannical rule of the King of England only to be governed by a corrupt and fatuous bureaucracy.
A minor part of which, our MP's, are elected.

BT ARE KILLING BROADBAND IN THE COUNTRY
12. June 2007
BT have now had over ten years to REWIRE BRITAIN in optical cable but they have chosen to
stagnate and leave all their rural customers isolated from the latest high speed technology.
How long are they going to continue charging us for a service which they don't provide.
Creaming off massive profits without reinvesting and upgrading local connections.
Why haven't they installed local relay units in rural communities to provide high speed broad band.
Instead they just say that if your further than 6 miles from a telephone exchange you can't have it.
So while the cities thrive on the new technology, rural England is turning into a deprived area.
No high quality phone lines, no high speed broad band, no Broadband TV.
Ofcom show no interest in pushing BT to improve rural broadband connections and suggest using 'other' suppliers like cable or satelite which are also not available.
The new BT revolution marches on with the grand announcement of its stellar plan to rewire Britain.(Maybe next year)
But is this just a plot to outwit Ofcom and stop them from selling off BT's local loop network.
Blazing the technological trail with its new brand name 21CN. BT promises the holy grail for Broadband users, but when will this start? Next year? And where will they start? London.
Instead of upgrading all the country dwellers who failed to benefit from the last decades technological advances they start again with the cities who already have fast Broadband and leave us to wait another ten years.
Up to 8Mb is not really a promise of anything, especially when it only means 0.5Mb
As other nations revel in the Internet revolution the country that created the first computers still fails to deliver.
Brainwashing a Nation
10 November 2006
Thousands of news bulletins a day are brainwashing the western nations into false assumptions & beliefs.
News is no longer being reported by the media, the media is affecting & directing events.
It is creating disasters by it's own negligent approach to world events.
Subverting our rights and our lives without our knowledge.
The news of the day is distracting our government from its work as it faces a daily barrage of negative attacking stories.
In the past small pressure groups succeeded in changing government policy by using the media to promote their ideas.
Focus groups like the women's movement, amnesty international, liberty, gay rights or animal rights.
These movements have all used the media to force their opinions on us all and force the government to change laws.
Progressively the power of the media has increased and its strength continues unrecognised, unchecked and uncontrolled.
The power to manipulate government policy has now progressed from the individual democrat,
passed the pressure groups stage and on to big business and the media news networks.
Media news networks have inadvertently stumbled upon the collective power not only to
manipulate government policy but to brainwash a nation into its own liberal ideology.
By repeating their liberal dogma over the networks for several years they have created
a new perspective of events which was originally only dubious opinion.
This minority group has now achieved the power to dominate our democracy without any
debate or allegiance to a political party.
Media Manipulation
(from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
The process of media manipulation is the way in which individuals or groups use various tricks in dealing with the media
in order to create an image of their side of an argument that is most favourable to the receiver.
Such tricks are based on the use of logical fallacies and propaganda techniques,
and are often used by suppressing information or points of view by crowding them out,
by inducing other people or groups of people to stop listening to certain arguments,
or simply by drawing their attention elsewhere.
Many of the more modern manipulation methods are types of distraction,
on the assumption that the public has a limited capacity for attention.

Media Glib
16/02/06
Why do the media think that they have the right to form moral judgements on the behaviour of our
front line soldiers in a time of war.
Guantanamo, Abu Ghraib, alleged British army beatings.
Liberty and the media bleat on about the ethics of torture.
The liberal left media have lost all sense of balance.
What happened to their supposed equality.
They analyse & criticise world shattering events without even a blink at the overall picture.
They write anything for a good headline, never mind the consequences.
In the media world Bush is the big baddie. Saddam Hussein is now a "sad man" to be pitied,
Osama bin laden is a long lost joke in a cave.
Media Glib would have us believe that Bush is the most dangerous threat to world peace.
Especially now that the BBC has spent the last three years indoctrinating the
country into their opinions on the war in Iraq.
Maybe it was the BBC that indoctrinated all the 7/7 bombers & not the Immans?
How long will it be before we can no longer fight to preserve our country
without the support of the media.
As they corrupt our sense of right & wrong by destroying our democratically elected politicians.
As they indiscriminately weave their power in manipulating events & elections.
Their opinionating is not to educate us to the issues any more it is to bludgeon
us to their way of thinking.
This is corruption and psychological brainwashing.
I haven't noticed any of the media giving the Islamofacist army the same degree of criticism.
Maybe their scared of invading the terrorists human rights or facing racial prejudice
laws and stick to pulling our politicians and Blair & Bush to pieces.
Easy targets, lazy journalism.
As the city dwellers rush to control events, their stressed out anxiety lacks common sense,
judgement and foresight.
Don't worry about the Islamofascists cutting off peoples heads when you can criticise
Bush for breaching someone's human rights by "Shaving off their beards", "keeping them in the dark" or
"force feeding them" to save their lives.
Which is better
1. To attack Iran and destroy it's nuclear capability
2. To let Iran and it's affiliated terrorists have nuclear weapons.
Which is better;
1. To torture Islamic fundamentalists to get information
2. Wait for a chemical attack to wipe out a city
Which is better;
1. To protect our oil supply in the middle east.
2. Wait for our power stations to run dry
So when Al Qaeda devised their war against the west, what did they pick as our weakest line of defence?
The Media.
How will they destroy the will of the western democracies?
The Media.
Skunk
Monday, 16 May 2005
Rosie Boycott, who as editor of the Independent on Sunday campaigned for the legalisation of cannabis,
concedes that modern cannabis is very different from that smoked in the 60s and 70s. 'It's got more dangerous with the increase in THC.'
SKUNK is 30 times stronger than 60's cannabis.
THC or tetrahydrocannabinol is the major active chemical compound in much of today's cannabis.
THC causes psychosis. It distorts perception, flattens emotions and can lead to hallucinations,
voices in the head and depression.
This is on top of the damage cannabis causes
to the lungs, cannabis contains many more cancer causing ingredients than even tobacco.
The BBC radio programme You and Yours featured a stream of people who thought cannabis-induced psychosis had destroyed their children's lives.
Professor Robin Murray from the Institute of Psychiatry said that the problem was exacerbated today because users were starting younger and smoking more - both of which increases the risk. 'Until the last couple of years, we didn't have definitive studies. Now we do,' he said. 'It's a time-bomb that's already gone off in London.
We now have twice as many people who are psychotic than in the 1960s.'
Rosie Boycott said the rise of THC was a good reason for the government to start
looking at the drug seriously. 'We don't want the drug to be adulterated in this way,' she said.
Even the Rastafarian's from Jamaica who originally introduced cannabis to this country refuse to smoke SKUNK because it is adulterated.
Experts in the field of drugs & addiction. have noticed that in the last five years there has been a marked increase in the number of people suffering from cannabis psychosis.
Cannabis psychosis mimics classic schizophrenia or manic illness. People develop paranoia, strange delusional beliefs, violence, hallucinations and loose touch with reality.
The THC acts on the brain receptors and causes the brain to release huge floods of dopamine, a chemical which can unbalance the mind.
People are having a change of heart over the cannabis laws after finding several personal acquaintances with teenage children who are suffering with psychosis as a result of smoking the enhanced cannabis, SKUNK.
This psychosis has made some teenagers incapable of looking after themselves. They have become paranoid, delusional and unable to maintain work or education. Eventually they can end up as in-patients in a psychiatric clinic.
This type of cannabis is nothing like the hippie cannabis that turned on the 60's & 70's generation. SKUNK is a super strength variety of cannabis farmed intensively in Britain using chemical fertilisers and artificial light.
A respected child psychotherapist has named SKUNK as being more dangerous than heroin.
Her explanation being that while heroin addiction can be cured, the damage caused by Skunk cannot.
The symptoms of Skunk induced psychosis are permanent.

Forty Percent
Tuesday, 03 May 2005
The media pundits are trying to understand why, after all their attempts to blast the electorate with anti-Blair propaganda,
his support remains solid at 40%.
The blatant bias of the BBC News & Newsnight coupled with a tirade of headline-grabbing abuse
from the Daily Mail and its cohorts has done nothing to dent Blair's popularity in the country.
While the pseudo-intellectuals in the media continue to re-fight Hutton again & again they still
refuse to believe that they were wrong, and that their opinions are out of step with the rest of the electorate.
The press & the media have dug themselves into a hole which they are determined to stay in until they depose PM Blair, by fair means or foul.
The manipulators of the press continue to exaggerate the importance of negative news items. BBC news appears to relish every opportunity
to run a lengthy negative story about Blair, never questioning
the conspiracy of 'leaks' emanating from its own mouthpiece. It continuously breaks its electoral charter obligations to stay impartial.
The most galling of all the hypocrisies is the continued cry of Blair the liar. (BLIAR)
This coming from a profession who spend their lives lying for a living.
The next time an honest & unbiased political article arrives in the media or press, please let me know.
As the pseudo intellectuals in the media continue with their myopic perspective of world events,
everybody else has moved on. And while the general public may not have the superior intellectual abilities of the hacks,
what they do have, is a more grounded perspective of life & events.
This can help them determine the moral difference between a hack who lies for money and a politician who lies for his country.
Another obvious point that the media hacks intentionally miss is that, in a democracy,
attaining political consensus on divisive issues is practically impossible. As was explaining the
finer points of the Middle East to everyone through a PLO biased media.
The only thing the media/press has achieved in the last few years is to stop the country from moving on to
becoming a better society.
Stagnation rules the media as it becomes more irrelevant by the day. It speaks but nobody listens.
The Blame Culture
22/07/2004
Blair was savagely criticised by Anatole Kaletsky in The Times for not intervening in Sudan & stopping the genocide & starvation. A.K. should not be so narrow-minded in his criticism of Blair & latterly Bush.
Maybe he should consider that the UK & US armed forces are busy in many regions of the world doing good work in peacekeeping. (research & list)
Why is it always the UK/US who are expected to intervene in these problems. Why not the French and the Germans. Why not the EU rapid response force or the United Nations.
How can a journalist self-righteously demand action after spending the last year destructively criticising the action we took in Iraq.
While our London journalists chased the dragon of WMD for a year ignoring the other multitude of reasons that Iraq was invaded, events have moved on.
But the journos have smelt blood and still believe they can topple a democratically elected prime minister and maybe even a president.
The latest skulduggery perpetuated by our London pseudo intellectual liberal lefty journalists is the blame game.
Having got bored with the original concept of 9/11 they now "forget" that it was al Qaeda terrorists who flew planes into the twin towers. It now becomes Bush's fault because of intelligence failures.
It therefore also follows that it was Bush who destroyed Afghanistan and not the Taliban.
The Middle East is also neatly tied up with the Palestinian/Israeli conflict becoming Bush's fault.
Obviously, now we have the drift of this, Iraq is Bush's fault and nothing whatsoever to do with the Saddam Hussein who defied the UN for ten years.
It was also Bush's fault that militant Islamists trained 10,000 terrorists to bomb & kill.
The Madrid bombing was clearly Bush's fault and not the responsibility of the terrorists.
Bali bombing…… California elections…….Iran…… Syria…
Every problem can be easily solved by blaming Bush.
Denial
If you get the drift of where I am going with this I have to say that there is a big lie going on here.
Because this is the only way that the media have managed to get through the Iraq war.
By showing death & destruction on a daily schedule and yet not getting involved.
They have been onlookers in a diabolical plot orchestrated by Blair & Bush to steal Iraq's oil. They have no conscience as it is not their war. No responsibility because they were against it.
Has it never occurred to these reporters that this country is in danger and will be over the next twenty years. That this war was for REAL and not for superficial motives.
No. It has not occurred to them because the truth is too scary.
That our society is under threat, that our country is infiltrated with terrorists that we can't find. That our laws & our democracy are not equipped for this battle. That our daily lives may be blighted by bombs just as Tel Aviv is today.
Obviously denial is best.
Another job joining up the dots. Another weekend. Another pub meal is Hampstead.
Nothing to shatter the peace of suburbia..... Yet......
and if there is. ....It'll be Bush's fault.
A Phyric Victory
15/07/2004
The Butler Report.
So the liberal left media has succeeded in taking the moral high ground.(in print)
It has dissected the Butler report, which nobody else wanted, and picked out all the bits they wanted to hear.
As they collectively pat themselves on the back, secure in the knowledge that "they were right all along."
They fail to notice the historic damage that they have caused to our society & our institutions of government.
We can thank the media for:
Wasting millions of pounds of taxpayers money on the Hutton & Butler reports.
Continuously diverting the government of the day from its work.
Destroying our faith in democracy.
Ignoring the facts pre/post 9/11 that there is a real direct terrorist threat to Europe.
Weakening our armed forces.
Fracturing the ability of our leaders to make decisions.
Allowing the BBC to legally rob everyone during ten years of failure.
As we now wait for the sequel to The Blair Witch Report with the enthusiasm of train spotters during a rail strike.
It is only a matter of time before our beloved journos dig up a rogues gallery of sad losers to back up this tiresome debate.
Will we have to listen to; Blix, Cooke, Short, Dyke, Davis & Chirac yet again?
Who knows and who cares?
All I can say is, thank you very much guys. All you've got to do now is get rid of Blair & Bush & we'll all be at your mercy.
A country run by journalists.
Chirac Caused Iraqi Chaos
06/06/2004
Instead of blaming the US for not having a post war plan the press should have blamed Chirac for the absence of the United Nations stabilisation force.
If our news outlets were more pro-US & less subversively liberal-left they could have analysed the chaos in Iraq as a result of political dithering in the UN.
Before the Iraq war, France, Germany, Russia & China refused to sign the amendments to legitamise the war. This was done because of Chirac's self indulgent pomposity, German weakness, & Russia & China's financial opportunism.
As the pre-war UN mandate was not agreed, neither was the post war peace legitimised.
We have now watched long and hard as these countries held back support for the Iraqi people. As they gloated over the demise of the US/UK war effort & as the terrorists swept in to take advantage of the power vacuum.
This would have been a much cleaner war had it not been for Chirac's meddling.
While the UK liberal-left media criticised Bush for months for not having a post war plan they ignored the fact that it was Chirac who destroyed the cohesion at the UN & with it the peace & reconstruction plan.
Our politically motivated journalists formed an unholy alliance of anti US and anti Blair intellectuals who have completely distorted the facts and events in Iraq.
Meanwhile, many lives have been lost & a decade added on to the time for creating a safe new Iraqi state.
British journalists who dabbled in this esoteric conspiracy have allowed Chirac to foolishly continue destroying the consensus in the United Nations for a year.
UK Independence Party
Thursday, 03 June 2004
The biggest asset that the UK Independence party have is the French president, Chirac.
Every time he opens his mouth he puts another nail into European Union coffin.
His opposition to the US/UK United Nations resolution before the war has caused untold damage to the situation in Iraq.
His humiliation of Tony Blair at the UN will always be resented in Britain.
The resulting fratricide of the European Unions foreign policy & integrated army is now a sad part of history.
As Chirac's egotistical pontificating leads the French nation into an idealistic ghetto, the C.A.P. & Brussels corruption continue to haemorrhage our taxes.
The British people are fed up with the decades of political failure in this country.
The inability to create an efficient; NHS, Education system, Civil Service, Local government, police force and asylum system while taking more & more tax is a failure for all our political parties.
The first step to control our politicians would be to refuse to pay the European taxes.
The next step would be to cut back the Council tax. and then to cut the cost of government itself.
Bureaucracy is a Methuselah which needs controlling.
We voted for democracy. We got bureaucracy.
Paper Tigers
19th May 2004
In Simon Jenkins's article in The Times, on May 19th 2004, he celebrates Bin laden exceeding his wildest dreams.
Laying out a complete and fulfilling account of the current situation in the war on terror.
This enlightening article gives an in depth viewpoint of the mind of the pseudo intellectual liberal left journalist.
And not just of Simon Jenkins but of the consensus of opinion incestuously propagated in the hierarchy of London's journalistic elite.
Why bother to report news any more when you can manipulate information on such a manifest scale?
As the rest of Britain languishes in apathetic disinterest the London journalists continue to weave their surreal scenario while cross checking with their friends to back up their ideology.
Media War
The story that all the media have missed and actually refuse to print is that this is not a war of soldiers & terrorists but a media war of information.
Bin laden chooses his battles to create maximum press coverage.
The Palestinian terrorists created suicide bombing for maximum publicity & sympathy. The US army is being castrated on a daily basis by the anti US press gloating over its inadequacies.
How can any western army fight a war with an intrusive media analysing every move? Obviously, it can't.
So now we have a Gucci class of journalists destroying our armed forces, demoralising the population and putting our society's survival in jeopardy.
The western population is being softened up by terrorists via the western media.
If this continues, in five years time there won't be anyone left with the will to fight.
And that is their objective.
Neo-cons vs liberal left
London news journalists are fighting an intellectual war against the US neo-conservative think tank.
The fact that the US neo-cons actually have the power to put plans into practice (& suffer the consequences) fails to cower the London cartel of lib-lefties.
London's best journalists theorise on paper but have nothing positive or constructive to offer, just a continuously negative criticism of our leaders and their actions.
This must be some kind of intellectual pique but they should realise that this buffoonery is not a game.
It not only puts them against the US neo-cons but also on the side of the terrorists.
