True Islam broadcast on British TV

The communications watchdog, Ofcom, has made a series of rulings against channels which allowed “inflammatory” material to be broadcast in breach of rules which forbid extreme opinions gaining a platform on British television.

The cases, disclosed today, include examples of an imam telling viewers that those who disrespect the prophet Mohammed should be killed, and another broadcaster saying homosexuals should be beaten and tortured.

Please note, these statements of ‘hate’ as the establishment try to paint it, are part of Islamic teachings. It is not a ‘misunderstanding of Islam’. Another command in Islam is that anyone who leaves the knuckle dragging death cult must be murdered.

You can’t leave you see. Because Islam is so peaceful you see.

Tala Rajab, the researcher who wrote the report for Quilliam, the anti-extremist think-tank, said the fresh findings by Ofcom raised serious questions over the regulation of broadcast material.

“Some of these recent incidents have been quite shocking,” he said.

“If this had happened in a mosque the police would be right in pursuing a criminal investigation. But because they are being broadcast on television channels for some reason there seems to be little appetite for looking into these extreme messages.

“If these kind of comments were made against black people, for example, you can imagine a channel being shut down overnight, particularly if they had incited violence against a minority.”

So Ofcom, the State, the Police turn a blind eye because they’re Muslims. (Although I thought inciting the murder of people is the cardinal violation of free speech). Just like they turned a blind eye to the gang raping / drugging of white girls by Pakistani Muslims, which is okay under Islam by the way.

Islam is the most despicable  ideology I’ve ever studied, and I’ve probably studied them all. But to blame Islam itself is wrong. Islam is just a collection of books and pages. MUSLIMS are the issue because they identify themselves with this creed. They are telling you ‘yes I agree with the paedophilia, the rape, murder, conquest, violence, global jihad, Jizya’ etc.

Maybe you don’t believe me. That’s okay. Here are the references.

Remember, it isn’t people like me (or you) labelling them with the same brush. They are.

Just because they’ll say other things to your face, doesn’t mean they are being honest. There is an Islamic tactic of deceit called al-Takia, which is where you lie to the worthless infidels ‘you and I’ until they get close enough to dominate, similar to lying to get into someone’s home so you can rape them.

This is Islam. There is no moderate version, extremist version, happy version, ‘misunderstanders of Islam’ version or any other apologist invention that seeks to separate the openly violent Muslims with the inwardly violent ones.

This will keep happening. I wonder how many instances of Muslims committing crimes ‘in the name of Islam’ will have to occur before these establishment morons admit there is a problem that doesn’t involve ‘stupid English racists, swivel eyed loons and so on…



SECRET PLOT TO LET 50 MILLION AFRICAN ‘WORKERS’ INTO EU

Where have I heard this before… And they will be entitled to benefits of course… Paid for by you.

Source: Daily Express

MORE than 50 million African workers are to be invited to Europe in a far-reaching secretive migration deal, the Daily Express can reveal today.

A controversial taxpayer-funded “job centre” opened in Mali this week is just the first step towards promoting “free movement of people in Africa and the EU”.

Brussels economists claim Britain and other EU states will “need” 56 million immigrant workers between them by 2050 to make up for the “demographic decline” due to falling birth rates and rising death rates across Europe.

Falling birthrates are a symptom of socialist anti-nuclear family and pro-single mother policies and extortionate levels of taxation. Note how you have NO SAY on this subject. One of the many benefits of living in a dictatorship.

The report, by the EU statistical agency Eurostat, warns that vast numbers of migrants could be needed to meet the shortfall in two years if Europe is to have a hope of funding the pension and health needs of its growing elderly population.

And the gravy train in the EU.

It states: “Countries with low fertility rates could require a significant number of immigrants over the coming dec­ades if they want to maintain the existing number of people of working age.

“Having sufficient people of working age is vital for the economy and for tax revenue.”

The report, by French MEP Francoise Castex, calls for immigrants to be given legal rights and access to social welfare provision such as benefits.

Well of fucking course they do. Everyone is encouraged to go on benefits. Good excuse to expand the nanny state, and raise taxes MORE. This of course puts more pressure on the hard working people of Britain, leaving less money in their pocket and less inclined to have children. You see the vicious circle yet? It is also known as the Dialectic. Encourage a problem, and then use the consequence of that problem to push their own agenda, which is cultural Marxism, and a war by proxy on the British taxpayer, which these socialist scum know are the strongest most patriotic demographic in the country. As is the case with any nation. Hence this following quote, from another one world dickface; Continue reading



Tax payers’ personal data lost in ‘unforgivable’ council blunder

Source: Daily Mail

Hundreds of confidential documents detailing the personal data of tax payers were discovered strewn on a busy roundabout.

Sensitive debt recovery papers containing names, addresses, money owed, monthly payments and court hearing dates were found by motorists blowing about in the breeze.

Letters to tax payers from council bailiffs chasing up unpaid tax bills were also found on Monday at the Gallows Corner roundabout in Romford, Essex.

The documents, which date from 1992 to June this year, should have been destroyed by Havering Council.

Car shop worker Colin Iszatt told how he gathered up more than 50 documents outside the shop. He slammed the council’s blunder, saying it left tax payers open to fraud.

He said: ‘I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. There were hundreds and hundreds of these papers flying down the road.

‘What chance have we got against fraud when they’re doing this? It’s unforgivable.’

Havering Council has launched an urgent investigation but could not answer how the papers came to be at the roadside.

A spokesman said it was ‘a relatively small amount of data’ despite claims hundreds of documents were found. Continue reading



MPs too scared to talk about forced marriage ‘in case they lose Muslim votes’

Who is your daddy. Pathetic behaviour of politicians, scrambling for votes. All that interests these traitors is being re-elected.

Source: Telegraph

(Extract)

Ann Cryer said politicians in areas with high Muslim populations, many of which are Labour heartlands, should be at the forefront of the campaign to stop young couples being made to wed against their will by their families.

But she claimed that some politicians are afraid to speak out on the issue in case they alienate Muslim voters. The forced marriage unit at the Foreign Office deals with an estimated 300 cases every year, most of them involving teenage girls from Pakistani or Bangladeshi families.

Mrs Cryer, who is stepping down as MP for Keighley in West Yorkshire at the next general election, added that local Muslim leaders are not doing enough to encourage integration and accused them of trying to keep immigrants who move to Britain “in the backwoods”.

It comes just days after Gordon Brown praised her “brave” campaign against forced marriage, and said her understanding of her constituency was “second to none”.

Mrs Cryer, 68, said: “There still is a nervousness to talk about this, especially those MPs in constituencies affected by these issues.

“They should be fighting on the front line, but they are the ones keeping quiet on the issue because they don’t want to lose votes.



Babies to be assessed on their ‘crying, babbling and squealing’ by fascist government

As per the course with socialist statist tyrants. What next, children facing criminal checks from the cradle?

Source: Daily Mail

A curriculum for nursery education which will see babies assessed on their ‘crying, babbling and squealing’ was condemned by parents’ groups.

The Early Years Foundation Stage – dubbed the ‘nappy curriculum’ – is compulsory for all nurseries, childminders and playgroups in England from this week.

Ministers say the guidelines for children from birth to five years old will improve standards in nursery education.

But campaigners oppose the rules that will measure toddlers’ progress against 69 ‘early learning goals.’

Opposition to Marxists is irrelevant to them. These traitors already believe they have superiority over the People and view your opposition as a sign of ignorance of their ‘illuminated’ view of how society should be. A communist utopia where you are a slave and the State is your Master.

It will also see carers monitor the way babies up to 11 months old communicate.

Margaret Morrissey from the National Confederation of Parent Teacher Associations said: ‘It is absolutely unbelievable that they can bring in this curriculum for such tiny children.

‘Under fives develop at an incredibly different pace. All this is going to do is put extreme pressure on the people who look after children.

‘It is going to put a whole category of children into failing before they even enter a school.’

Children’s Secretary Ed Balls said the rules will reduce inequality by ensuring the education of toddlers from disadvantaged families.

I f*cking hate this government. They need to be replaced, with force if necessary before they reduce Britain to a third world police state ghetto



Does this photograph prove Abu Qatada is flouting his bail?

Source: Daily Mail

Abu Qatada will no doubt argue that this is not a breach of the strict bail conditions which ban him from using a mobile telephone.

But is the fanatical preacher – once described as ‘Osama Bin Laden’s right-hand man in Europe’ – obeying the spirit, as well as the letter, of the law?

On a shopping trip this week near his London home, the 47-year-old was photographed in conversation with a friend, who then appeared to relay Qatada’s words via his mobile to another person.

An onlooker said: ‘It was clear to me that the man with the mobile phone was speaking to Qatada before speaking to the person on the other end of the phone.

‘He would speak to Qatada holding the phone in his hand away from his ear and then put it to his ear and speak to whoever was on the other end of the line.’

Qatada, who was granted asylum 15 years ago, was freed from a high-security prison in June after the courts ruled that sending him home to Jordan would breach his human rights. He has already been convicted of terror attacks and bomb plots there in his absence.

The eight-page bail order set out a series of stringent rules which placed him under virtual house arrest.

The father of five, whose family are living on benefits of an estimated £50,000 a year, is allowed to leave his rented £800,000 four-bedroom semi for just two hours a day. Continue reading



UK government forges ahead with retention of personal Internet data

Note the underlying EU Directive that is forcing this through in Britain, as the police state structure is expanded, the number of EU Directives being enforced will increase rapidly.

Source: European Digital Rights

UK government intends to oblige ISPs and telephone companies to keep Internet personal data traffic for at least 12 months and local, health authorities and lots of other public bodies are to be given access to details of everyone’s personal Internet information.

On 15 August 2008, the Home Office published a consultation paper which makes clear that the personal data will now be available for crime and public order investigations and may even be used to prevent people self-harming. Furthermore, as the measure is the result of an EU directive, the data will be made available to public investigators across Europe.

The measure will cover VOIP as well and access to personal Internet and text data will be available to all public bodies licensed under the 2000 Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act (RIPA), meaning that hundreds of public bodies including local councils, health authorities, the Health and Safety Commission, the Food Standards Agency or Ofsted (the education standards watchdog), may require telecom companies to hand them over the personal data.

UK government intends to go further by introducing a draft communications bill this autumn which would require all the telecommunications companies to hand over this data to one central “super” database. The police and other public authorities will be able to access this database directly without having to make a request to the company which keeps the records.

The database had been planned to be bundled with the EU Data Retention Directive that is to be legally implemented in UK by March 2009. The consultation paper published by the Home Office is meant to transpose the Directive as a standalone statutory instrument. Laws made by statutory instruments do not need a Parliament vote.

Nursery booklet for parents is ‘blatant propaganda’

Source: Times Online

(Extract)

Ministers are producing misleading “propaganda” which skirts around new targets for the under-5s in an attempt to head off a revolt by parents of nursery children, campaigners claim today.

Under the new Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework which comes into force next week, all preschool children in private, voluntary or state childcare in England will be expected to meet 69 literacy, numeracy and problem-solving targets based on, and even using, computers and other technology.

But a booklet for parents on the framework contains no mention of any of the statutory literacy or numeracy targets, emphasising only that children will be expected to “learn through play” and “develop at their own pace”.

Two of the most contentious targets are that children should “write their own names . . . and begin to form simple sentences, sometimes using punctuation” and “use phonic knowledge to write simple regular words and make phonetically plausible attempts at more complex words”.

This is despite the guidance for nurseries and childcarers referring to the targets as “learning and development requirements that all early years providers must by law deliver”. Continue reading



Taxman to get new powers to enter private property

Source: Guardian

(Extract)

HM Revenue & Customs inspectors are to gain new powers to investigate and fine taxpayers, but safeguards for individuals and businesses will not come into effect until at least four months later.

Accountancy and tax bodies said the “get tough” regime should be delayed until a charter is in place to protect taxpayers. They also argued the charter should be a statute, similar to a bill of rights, rather than the currently proposed statement of good practice.

HMRC will acquire powers next year to enter business premises and private homes used for business. For errors that are “careless, but non-deliberate”, penalties worth up to 30% of an unpaid tax bill can be levied. Fines worth 70% of the final tax bill could be imposed should officials believe the taxpayer deliberately ignored the need to make a payment. Deliberate concealment could trigger fines worth 100% of the final tax bill. The new powers, outlined in the Finance Act, are due to come into effect on April 1 2009.

Tax officers will gain powers to inspect and remove information and documents, while the Treasury will limit the amount taxpayers can reclaim in wrongly paid tax from six to four years. Income tax, capital gains tax, VAT and stamp duty tax will be among payments covered by the new regime. Fines can be imposed from March 2009 on tax bills calculated from March 2008.



The Stasi is formed in Britain, August 27th 2008

Source: Daily Mail

(Extract)

Security guards and town hall workers are being armed with sweeping police-style powers, it has emerged.

For a few hundred pounds, state and private sector employees can receive Home Office accreditation.

This allows them to hand out fines for a raft of offences, from dropping litter to riding a bike on the pavement.

They can also stop cars to check their tax discs, seize alcohol from underage drinkers and demand people’s names and addresses.

The hope is that they will free up rank-and-file officers from having to perform these unpopular tasks. The uniformed, badged army of snoopers will become a vital part of the ‘extended police family’, ministers say.

But privacy campaigners have dubbed them Home Secretary Jacqui Smith’s ‘Stasi’ after the East German secret police.

Phil Booth of NO2ID said: ‘This is a sinister move towards a Stasi snooper state in which jobsworths are devolved the powers of the police – including the right to demand you identify yourself.’

Shadow Home Secretary Dominic Grieve added: ‘This is a consequence of the Government’s obsession with policing on the cheap as well as their staggering complacency towards the extension of surveillance by an increasing amount of different bodies.

‘The public will be angered that the Home Office is seeking to take serious powers that should be appropriately applied by the police and encouraging them to be given not just to local councils, but also to private firms.

‘The public want to see real police on the streets discharging these responsibilities, not private firms who may use them inappropriately – including unnecessarily snooping on the lives of ordinary citizens.’

Details of the new army of police-style officers emerged in Home Office papers released today.

There are already 1,400 town hall and private sector staff accredited, and ministers want a dramatic expansion of the scheme.

Called the Community Safety Accreditation Scheme, it allows the likes of security guards, park wardens, car park attendants and store detectives to boost their roles if they undergo training and pay a small fee to their local police force. Continue reading



Personal data of a million bank customers found on computer sold on eBay for £35

This just never seems to let up…

Source: Daily Mail

(Extract)

Personal details of more than a million bank customers have been found on a computer sold on eBay.

Highly sensitive information on American Express, NatWest and Royal Bank of Scotland customers was stored on the machine’s hard drive.

It includes names, addresses, mobile phone numbers, bank account numbers, sort codes, credit card numbers, mothers’ maiden names and even signatures.

It was described as ‘a data thief’s treasure chest’, with everything a criminal needs to assume a customer’s identity – and clear out their bank account.

The massive data loss – one of the worst ever in Britain – is a clear breach of the banks’ obligation under the Data Protection Act to keep all personal information secure.

Coming just days after the Home Office admitted losing the details of 127,000 criminals, it is certain to fuel public concern about how Government and businesses look after our secrets.

Last night it was revealed that a second computer from the same site has gone missing, meaning yet more information could have been leaked.

IT security expert Adam Laurie said: ‘This is appalling. This information is worth millions – a thief could easily use it to go on an enormous shopping spree.’

Liberal Democrat spokesman Tom Brake said: ‘This is yet another example of a seemingly trusted organisation appearing to be sloppy with people’s personal information. Continue reading



Is the fluoride in our water really good for our teeth?

I have added some information the article neglects to mention.

Source: Daily Mail

The Government wants 40 per cent of England’s water supply to be fluoridated to reduce high levels of tooth decay. But its critics say it has been linked to conditions such as hypothyrodism (underactive thyroid gland). Here we explain what you should know.

Q: What is fluoride?

A: A naturally occurring mineral found in water and some foods (such as tea and fish). It can also be chemically produced – as in toothpaste. Fluoride strengthens tooth enamel and makes teeth more resistant to acid attacks.

The fluoride they use for fluoridation is not naturally occurring. It is called Hydrofluosilic acid. More information about it can be found below, from No To Fluoridation;

Hydrofluosilic acid (H 2 SiF 6 ) and other fluorosilicates are not naturally occurring. They are waste products derived from the industrial manufacture of aluminium, zinc, uranium, aerosols, insecticides, fertilizers, plastics, lubricants and pharmaceuticals.

Professor Kaj Roholm , former Chief of the Toxicology Committee for the National Research Council the author of the first and most comprehensive monograph on fluorosilicates classifies hydrofluorosilic acid and hexafluorosilic acid as “extremely toxic.” One chemical company selling fluoride to water suppliers describes it as “a colourless to straw yellow, transparent, fuming, corrosive liquid with a pungent odour and irritating action on the skin.”

Hydrofluorosilic acid is listed as a Part II poisons under the Poisons Act 1972. As such its use as a commercially ingestible product in water contravenes UK and EU pharmaceutical legislation governing the regulation of medicinal substances, as well as the Poisons Act.

Home Office loses secret records of thousands of Britain’s most dangerous criminals

Source: Daily Mail

(Extract)

Secret personal details of Britain’s most dangerous criminals have been lost by the Government.

The public could now face an enormous bill to protect paedophiles, rapists, drug runners and killers from vigilantes or rival gangsters.

The names, addresses, details of convictions and even jail release dates of almost 130,000 people were all in Home Office files lost when a computer memory stick went missing.

It was being used by an employee of a private contractor working for the department.

The astonishing security blunder plunges Home Secretary Jacqui Smith, who was told of the scandal on Tuesday, into the greatest crisis of her career.

Miss Smith informed the Metropolitan Police – who are now frantically hunting for the portable data storage device – but chose not to tell the public immediately.

It took the intervention of a whistleblower for details to emerge. The delay is likely to lead to damaging questions for the Home Secretary, whose mood last night was described by aides as ‘livid’.

The Office of the Information Commissioner said the data – a list of all 84,000 prisoners in England and Wales, plus details of 43,000 most serious and persistent offenders – was a ‘toxic liability’.

Tory spokesman David Ruffley warned of huge costs for taxpayers if criminals sue the Home Office for breaching their privacy and the Data Protection Act.

Mr Ruffley added: ‘This shambles proves this accident-prone Home Secretary hasn’t even got a grip of what goes on in her own building. Taxpayers will be absolutely outraged if they are made to pick up the bill for compensation to serious criminals.’

It is the latest in a string of cases where the Government has lost highly-sensitive data, most seriously the personal details of 25million child benefit claimants.

The latest shambles centres on a Whitehall project known as JTrack, to share details of the country’s worst offenders.

A private firm working on the project, PA Consulting, was sent the convicts’ personal details by the Home Office. Continue reading



School CCTV concerns teachers

Source: BBC

(Extract)

Many teachers say they are concerned about “hidden” surveillance cameras located in their schools.

A snapshot survey of 249 primary and secondary school teachers suggested 84.6% had CCTV in their school.

The research, conducted by the Association of Teachers and Lecturers (ATL), also suggested more than half – 52.9% – said it made them feel safer.

But 23.4% were concerned there may be hidden cameras whose existence was kept from both staff and pupils.

Although 97.6% of teachers said CCTV was primarily used for security purposes, 49.5% said it was used for monitoring pupil behaviour.

The majority of those questioned – 76.7% – said surveillance cameras were positioned at the entrance to their school, and almost 10% said they had cameras in their school’s toilets.

If school life is designed to ready children for adult working life, you can see where this is going. Constant surveillance, conformity to state rules, loyalty to globalism and not your country, and the use of biometrics for transactions. Who wants to bet none of these children know of the existence of Magna Carta or the Bill of Rights.



Great (Police State) Britain

Source: Telegraph

(Extract)

With every telephone call, swipe of a card and click of a mouse, information is being recorded, compiled and stored about Britain’s citizens.

An investigation by The Sunday Telegraph has now uncovered just how much personal data is being collected about individuals by the Government, law enforcement agencies and private companies each day.

In one week, the average person living in Britain has 3,254 pieces of personal information stored about him or her, most of which is kept in databases for years and in some cases indefinitely.

This newspaper’s findings come days after the Government published plans to grant local authorities and other public bodies access to the email and internet records of millions. Phone companies already retain data about their customers and give it to 650 public bodies on request.

In socialism or communism, everything (including you) becomes the property of the state to regulate and control as it deems fit. Our freedom is already slipping away into totalitarianism. How long can people continue to kid themselves otherwise?



UK DNA database holds records of 40,000 INNOCENT children

So the government has admitted, but of course, in a police state there are no innocent people. Everyone is a potential threat to the tyrants in power.

Source: Daily Mail

Nearly 40,000 innocent children have been placed on the Government’s enormous DNA database for life, ministers admitted last night.

The number of ten to 17-year-olds who have done nothing wrong yet have had their genetic profiles seized by police has soared by 60 per cent in two years.

The news will fuel mounting fears that forces are arresting youngsters who have committed no crime simply to build up their DNA database by ‘stealth’.

The scale of the gathering operation was revealed by Home Office minister Meg Hillier. She confirmed the database held the records of 303,393 children whose genetic profiles can be checked against any crime scene.

Of these, 39,095 – or 12.8 per cent – had ‘not been convicted, cautioned, received a final warning or reprimand and had no charge pending against them’.

The controversial figures, slipped out in a written Parliamentary answer, provoked condemnation yesterday.

Shadow Home Secretary Dominic Grieve said: ‘This is yet more evidence that the DNA database is totally arbitrary, with tens of thousands of innocent kids on it but not every offender in our prisons.’

Liberal Democrat home affairs spokesman Chris Huhne said it was wrong to store the DNA of innocent people. He pointed out that the database does not contain data on many convicted criminals.

He said: ‘These figures show that the Government is building a national DNA database by stealth. Continue reading



English is a second language for 1 in 8 pupils in England

Source: Daily Mail

(Extract)

One in eight pupils speaks English as a second language, a report has revealed.

The Government survey highlights the ‘disunited nations’ in classrooms as teachers battle to educate a massive influx of immigrants. In some areas more than 70 per cent of pupils arriving at the school gates do not speak English as their mother tongue.

MPs and unions immediately called on ministers to take urgent action to prevent primaries and secondaries being overwhelmed by the pressure. They warn that schools are being forced to juggle resources as migrant children take longer to understand lessons and divert the teacher’s energies from other pupils.

The figures give the sharpest snapshot yet of the scale of the challenge facing schools around the country.

The Department for Children, Schools and Families statistics showed that 815,450 schoolchildren  –  or 12.5 per cent  –  did not speak English as their mother tongue as of January this year.

For primary schools, the proportion was 14.3 per cent, or one in seven, compared with 10.5 per cent in 2004, the year before European Union expansion.

Meanwhile, in secondary schools 10.6 per cent of pupils, or about 450,000, have English as a second language. Two years ago, the proportion was 9.5 per cent. Continue reading



Taxpayer fury at £7million Olympics ‘junket’ for 640 public servants

This is what happens when you give a State unchecked power, when you allow the Government to continually raise taxes and create endless rules and regulations, making money off of every transaction. When you allow a Government to balloon into this vast Socialist bureaucracy with ‘civil servants’ taking advantage of the lack of oversight.

That oversight is supposed to be the People. The People are too busy watching television and complaining about the increasing cost of living, when the solution to these issues rests only with us.

Source: Daily Mail

The Government is under fire today over the number of public servants travelling to the Beijing Olympics – at a reported total cost of £7 million – amid accusations that the event is being treated as a junket.

Prime Minister Gordon Brown, who is flying out to attend the closing ceremony, will be accompanied by 20 aides at a cost of £114,000, it is reported.

Many bodies involved in organising the 2012 London games are sending representatives, with the capital’s Tory mayor Boris Johnson taking 13 staff at a reported cost of £167,000, while the London Development Agency has spent £3 million to hire out a private members’ club in Beijing for the duration of the Games.

Olympics Minister Tessa Jowell, Culture Secretary Andy Burnham, Sport Minister Gerry Sutcliffe and 10 officials from the Department for Culture, Media and Sport will attend the Games at a £75,000 cost.

Another 11 Whitehall ministers and officials will be going to China, the newspaper said.

In total, 639 people at a cost of £6,846,700 will attend – most of them BBC staff involved in coverage of the games. Continue reading



Anger at plans for EU wide police force with powers to snoop on Britons

Do not expect these EU Kommissars to ask you for your opinion on this subject either (like everything else). They just expect you to comply.

Source: Daily Mail

Vast amounts of personal data on British citizens will be sent abroad, under advancing plans for a European-wide police force.

EU ministers have also called for top-secret intelligence to be pooled between the 27 member states – and shared with US authorities.

National police forces would be integrated, and a European-wide police force or ‘gendarmerie’ set up to fight crime across national borders.

They say the controversial proposals for an ‘Euro-atlantic area of cooperation’ would help control terrorism, organised crime and illegal immigration.

But critics fear exchanging volumes of intelligence material would be detrimental to Britain’s security.

The 53-page report was drafted by ministers from six member states – Germany, France, Sweden, Portugal, Slovenia and the Czech Republic.

A blueprint for security policy over the next five years, it took 18 months to prepare and has already been sent to all EU heads of government.

It argues that European police forces and intelligence services should be far more closely integrated, and ‘coordinated’ from Brussels.

The plans do not rule out foreign police officers being allowed to patrol British streets. Continue reading



Dr Ken Smith: Ignore Bad Spelling From University Students

Is this what it has sunk to? Students in university that are so bad at spelling that a senior lecturer is calling for an amnesty, to re-categorise these mistakes as merely variations on the word? Teachers are flooded with students of such a low calibre that they must now start making suggestions like this?

This of course plays into the hands of the Communists running the country. A dumbed down population is much more likely to capitulate to authority and not likely to be thinking for themselves or asking pesky questions.

Source: Daily Mail

Dr Ken Smith is urging colleagues to turn a blind eye to the 20 most common slips  –  such as ‘Febuary’, ‘ignor’ and ‘speach’  –  and view them instead as variants of standard spellings.

Writing in the Times Higher Education magazine, the senior lecturer in criminology at Buckinghamshire New University said: ‘Teaching a large first-year course at a British university, I am fed up with correcting my students’ atrocious spelling. Aren’t we all?

‘But why must we suffer? Instead of complaining about the state of the education system as we correct the same mistakes year after year, I’ve got a better idea.

‘University teachers should simply accept as variant spellings those words our students most commonly misspell.’

He added: ‘Either we go on beating ourselves and our students up over this problem or we simply give everyone a break and accept these variant spellings as such.

‘All I am suggesting is that we might well put 20 or so of the most commonly misspelt words in the English language on the same footing as those other words that have a widely accepted variant spelling.’ Continue reading



Unmanned drone planes set to spy on Britons

You just keep telling yourself it’s for your safety and that you’re still free.

Source: Daily Mail

Unmanned spy planes could soon be used to carry out covert surveillance on UK citizens, under controversial new Government plans.

The MoD is working with defence firm BAE Systems to make so-called UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) safe enough to be used to help police operations in the UK.

The sophisticated unmanned aircraft are able to get clear images of the ground even when flying at up to 50, 000 feet.

However, even though they are widely used by British troops in warzones such as Iraq and Afghanistan, until now they have not been cleared for use in civilian airspace.

The plan to use UAVs in Britain has worried civil liberties groups who say that they could be used to spy on innocent civilians.

Gareth Crossman, director of policy at the civil rights watchdog Liberty, told The Independent: ‘The question is not so much about the technology but what one does with it.

‘We have quite definite laws about where CCTV can be used but of course with UAVs you have much greater ability to gather material in private spaces and this would lead to concern.’

He added: ‘If they are used to simply hover to gain random information then that would obviously be a matter of worry and a civil liberty issue.’

If approved, UAVs could be for disaster relief, crowd control and anti-terror surveillance maritime searches as well as supporting Coastguard, police, fire and intelligence services, the committee heard.

The MPs’ report says the MoD is ‘closely involved with the development of procedures and regulations which allow UAVs to operate in national and Nato airspace. Continue reading



‘EURANIUM’: The Weaponized Fiat Currency

Source: Market Oracle

(Extract)

Like its metallic counterpart, the euro currency has the tendency to make other currencies it comes into contact with more like itself – radioactive. The inevitable result is the death of (natural) national currency systems.

The Nature of the Euro-Beast.

The euro’s architects have recognized that the worldwide dollar-reserve system cannot be sustained. The reason: The US Fed’s dual – and conflicting – mandate of price-stability and full employment. The Fed was sold to Congress via the ‘hook’ that it would allow Congress to both control inflation and maximize employment if only Congress would agree to set up this version of a central bank in the US.

As we all know, there are very few politicians who can and will resist such a temptation.

Since that proposition has predictably turned into a slow-moving disaster, the euro architects figured out that they will have to give up some of the power bestowed upon them by centralized control of interest. They did this by limiting the ECB’s function to maintaining “price stability”, i.e., limiting credit-inflation.

In so doing, they curtailed the ECB’s ability to goose the markets on demand in order paper-over occasional and inevitable economic downturns. At the same time, they took the controls off the price of gold by (a) trying to maintain roughly fifteen percent of the system’s forex reserves in the form of gold, and (b) by revaluing its gold reserves quarterly at market prices.

Richard Dawkins blames Muslims for ‘importing creationism’ into classrooms

Political correctness is a Marxist tool designed for speech (and as a consequence, thought) control. It is also known as collectivist protectionism. It simply stops people criticising or highlighting issues with a particular group or groups, giving them higher social status and power than other groups that are not protected. The State can then use this to play groups off of each other, and using every negative consequence to expand the power of the State.

Britain’s most famous atheist has blamed devout Muslims for importing creationist theories into the country’s science classes.

Professor Richard Dawkins, who wrote the bestselling book The God Delusion, believes that children should be taught the theory of evolution instead of the idea that God created the universe.

Dawkins, who holds the chair for the understanding of science at Oxford, thinks that political correctness has made it impossible for teachers to criticise Islam because they will be branded as being racist.

‘The government could do more but it doesn’t want to because it is fanatical about multiculturalism and the need to respect the different traditions from which these children come.

‘The government – particularly under Tony Blair – thinks it is wonderful to have children brought up with their traditional religions. I call it brainwashing.

‘It’s almost impossible to say anything against Islam in this country because if you do you are accused of being racist or Islamophobic.’

He added: ‘It is fine to teach children about scientific controversies.

‘What is not fine is to say: “There are these two theories. One is called evolution, the other is called Genesis.”

‘If you are going to say that, then you should talk about the Nigerian tribe who believe the world was created from the excrements of ants.

‘Because we are all brought up to respect faith, it leaves open a gap through which fanatics can charge.’



Daily Express EU Referendum Poll: 94% want OUT

Source: Daily Express

An update on the Daily Express Poll for how people would vote in an EU Referendum. Currently it stands at 94.2% who would want out, and that doesn’t even take into account all of the facts about the EU I’m sure a lot of people do not know, like Declaration 17 of the Lisbon Treaty or Article 28, or how it was modelled on the former Soviet Union. No wonder the Marxists in government refuse to give the People a vote. It is time we started organising action to remind the Communists in Westminster why they should listen to us.

Council spies using DVLA database for ‘environmental crimes’

One of the issues with government controlled databases is the potential for abuse. You should assume your privacy is now gone the minute some personal data of yours ends up on one of one of their systems.

Source: Daily Mail

Town hall snoopers obtained the details of more than 270,000 motorists from the DVLA database last year in a bid to trap people for ‘environmental crimes’.

The officials wanted to link car owners via their number plates to offences such as littering, dog fouling and noisy stereos.

Critics say the scale of the inquiries is a ‘terrifying’ example of the lurch towards a Big Brother society.

Councils were originally given 24-hour access to the DVLA’s huge database, via a computer link called the Web Enabled Enquiry System (WEES), to make it easier to trace the owners of abandoned cars.

But a document produced by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs reveals this access has recently been ‘enhanced’ to allow authorised council staff to police environmental crimes.

The DVLA said WEES was accessed last year by a total of 271,563 by local councils – at the rate of more than 700 checks every day.

North Cornwall District Council used the system in an attempt to trace somebody suspected of horse fouling. Test Valley Council in Hampshire used it in a graffiti inquiry, while Chorley Council in Cheshire used it to check on the owner of a car leaking petrol in a car park.

Bexley Council in London checked the system 44 times last year to trace people illegally advertising cars for sale in the street. Other councils have used the system in an attempt to trace the owners of out of control dogs, bogus callers and benefit cheats.

This is a variation of function creep. The process of a system, initially being used for one thing, gradually expanding its scope. It always happens with government system. Always. Next they will be using this system to identify potential dissidents.

Shadow Local Government Secretary Eric Pickles said: ‘State intrusion is becoming the norm not the exception as we witness the slow death of our privacy. Continue reading



Teach 11 year old boys how to use condom, compulsory sex education

Source: Daily Mail

Children as young as 11 should be given compulsory sex education including lessons on how to put on a condom, says a Government report.

All secondary school pupils should be taught about sexually-transmitted diseases such as chlamydia and contraception, according to a panel of sexual health experts.

But family rights campaigners lambasted the plan, saying it was appalling that teachers could give explicit lessons on sex to children even if local parents were opposed.

At present schools decide how detailed their sexual education lessons should be in conjunction with parents.

The law says that pupils must only be taught the bare minimum biology of sex, and how the body changes during puberty.

They are encouraged to teach pupils about relationships, how sexually-transmitted diseases are spread, and how to use contraception such as condoms – but many do not do so if local parents say no.

The report from the Independent Advisory Group on Sexual Health said it should be made compulsory for all schools to provide extensive sex education.

Earlier this month, official figures showed that the number of STIs had risen by 6 per cent in the past year, with a half of all newly-diagnosed infections among 16 to 24 year olds.

Britain has one of the highest rates of teenage pregnancy in Western Europe and abortion rates are climbing towards 200,000 a year.

Norman Wells, of Family and Youth Concern, said: ‘The answer does not lie in yet more sex education and contraceptive schemes, but in honestly telling young people that the only sure way to avoid being infected with an STI is to keep sexual intimacy within the context of a lifelong, mutually faithful relationship between a husband and wife.

One third of British Muslim students think it is acceptable to kill in name of Islam

This is not, as the article seems to imply, a symptom of ‘radicalism’ or ‘extremism’. It is from the teachings of their Holy Book. It is not a random distortion of the ‘Religion of PeaceTM‘, it is the very essence of Islam, and therefore of Muslims.

Religion of Peace, as long you are a Muslim

Religion of Peace, so long as you're a Muslim

Almost one third of British Muslim students think it is acceptable to kill in the name of Islam, results of a poll show.

The findings shed light on the extent of campus radicalism and will raise concerns about extremism across British Universities.

The YouGov poll for the Centre for Social Cohesion also found that two in five Muslims at university support the idea of Islamic sharia codes being enshrined in British law, the Sunday Times has reported.

One of the report authors Han-nah Stuart said the study’s findings came as an embarrassing blow to those who play down the threat of extremism within Britain’s campuses.

She said: ‘Significant numbers appear to hold beliefs which contravene democratic values.

‘These results are deeply embarrassing for those who have said there is no extremism in British universities.’

Fosis, the country’s largest Muslim student body criticised the report.

But Anthony Glees, professor of security and intelligence studies at Buckingham University, said: ‘The finding that a large number of students think it is okay to kill in the name of religion is alarming. Continue reading



Libertas founder plans Europe-wide Lisbon Treaty referendums

We are already in a position wherein the EU creates over 80% of our laws now. The Lisbon Treaty would merely give the remaining powers of sovereign nations to the globalists in Brussels, add self amending clauses and consolidate all power in the hands of the unelected suits. Saying no to the Treaty is only the first step. We must leave the EU. We must purge our State of these money grabbing, lying cheating little Marxist vermin and make the British realise that sovereign power is with the People, not the Government. Legally they have no right to transfer the People’s power to Brussels.

The man who delivered an historic “No” vote in Ireland against the EU’s Lisbon Treaty has revealed far-reaching plans to give voters throughout Europe a peoples’ referendum on the handover of power to Brussels.

Declan Ganley is planning to field more than 400 candidates in next June’s European Parliament elections, in the 26 countries – including Britain – where voters have had no direct say on the treaty.

The energy and rhetoric of Mr Ganley, a multimillionaire businessman, was widely credited with persuading the Irish to reject the treaty, even though every leading Irish political party apart from Sinn Fein was urging voters to say “Yes”.

Now he wants to give British voters a chance to deliver a bloody nose to both the Brussels establishment and to Gordon Brown, whose party first promised and then refused a referendum in Britain.

In an interview with The Sunday Telegraph, Mr Ganley disclosed that he was starting to raise £75 million from online donations to run candidates in all 12 of Britain’s European Parliament constituencies, and in seats throughout the EU.

He will turn his pressure group, Libertas, into a party with just one policy: to fight the Lisbon Treaty, which many see as the rejected European Constitution by the back door.

“We will tell people that Libertas is the box you put your X in if you want to vote ‘No’ to the Lisbon Treaty. It’s clear, it’s simple,” he said. Continue reading



Britain must be nicer to Muslims, says UN ‘human rights’ chiefs

What have ‘human rights’ got to do with religion anyway? Muslims are by definition, followers of Islam. Islam is a religion, one which abhors Western culture and believes it should be replaced by Sharia (Islamic Law.) This is not a secret. As far as I am concerned, to hell with a religion that views non-followers as the worst of the worst.

Britain was told yesterday by a United Nations committee to take firm action to combat ‘negative public attitudes’ towards Muslims.

The nine-member human rights committee also criticised some of the UK’s antiterror measures.

The body, which is composed of legal experts, said it was concerned ‘ negative public attitudes towards Muslim members of society’ continued to develop in Britain.

The Government ‘should take energetic measures to eliminate this phenomenon and ensure that authors of such acts of discrimination on the basis of religion are adequately deterred and sanctioned’.

The committee expressed concern over the Government’s plans to extend pre-trial detention of terrorist suspects from 28 to 42 days. Suspects should be brought to court ‘within a reasonable period of time, or released’.

Those suspected of being involved in terrorism and subject to control orders and curfews limiting their movements should be ‘promptly charged with a criminal offence’ and their lawyers given access to the evidence against them, it added. Continue reading



UK surveillance requests surges to 1,400 a day against own population

For your protection of course. Who needs Rights when you have a police state anyway?

Source: Times Online

Official ‘surveillance’ requests for details of telephone and internet records have surged to 1,400 a day, according to figures published yesterday.

The annual number of ‘spying’ requests for private communications data jumped to almost 520,000 last year, compared with an average of less than 350,000 in the two previous years.

Local councils have been criticised for seeking the information to tackle under age drinking, dog fouling, littering and even to find out whether a family lived in a school catchment area.

Although local authorities made up only a small proportion of the overall number of requests in 2007, they were criticised for misunderstanding the concept of proportionality in when ‘spying’ is justified to tackle a problem.

Figures from the intercept commissioner show that there were a total of 519,200 requests for communications data made under the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act. The requests apply to who made a call, when and where it was made but not the content.

Sir Paul Kennedy, the commissioner, said that the vast majority of requests were made by police and the security services with only 1,707 made by 154 local authorities. Continue reading
