justice brit style … more law and disorder
Never mind what you may have read or been told. Brit judges take law and order and justice very seriously and work above and beyond the call of logic and common sense and here’s proof how serious they are about crime and punishment.
Don’t mess with these hard asses.
Career criminal with 100 theft offences walks free AGAIN after judge fails to enact suspended prison sentence
Drug addict Sundee Spaulding promised was given ‘one last chance’ when she last appeared before the court for theft
25-year-old had been serving 12 month suspended jail term for previous thefts when she went on shoplifting spree
Judge Carol Hagen told Spaulding has had ‘just about every sentence the court could possible give her’
Judge Hagen decided it was not ‘in the interests of justice’ to jail the repeat offender
Mother-of-one given yet another 12-month supervision order as well as a curfew and a six month drugs rehabilitation orderBy TOM GARDNER
A career criminal with more than 100 offences has again walked free from court, despite getting a ‘last chance’ from the same judge two years ago.
Judge Carol Hagen decided it was ‘not in the interests of justice’ to enact the suspended sentence drug addict Sundee Spaulding had been serving during her shoplifting spree.
The mother-of-one, 25, already has 33 convictions for more than 100 theft-related and dishonesty crimes.
But Judge Hagen gave her one ‘final chance’ and let her walk free – even though she had broken her supposed ‘last chance’ given after her last conviction.She told Spaulding: ‘You present me with a real problem Sundee Spaulding. You commit offence after offence and always there is some excuse on your part.
‘The question for me is do I send you to prison or not. I am persuaded that it is in the interests of justice that I do not activate that suspended sentence.‘It seems to me to offer the best chance at this point in time to dissuade you from committing further criminal offences.
‘I’m giving you a final chance. If any of these conditions I impose are breached you are going to prison for 12 months. ‘This is a real opportunity.’Bristol Crown Court was told Spaulding had stolen two meat joints from a Co-op, in Avonmouth, Somerset, on April 12.
After handing herself in to police, Spaulding, from Shirehampton, Bristol, then tried to steal £241 worth of shopping from a nearby Asda in nearby Patchway.
It was only when she tried to exit the store through a closed door and security guards approached her to tell her which door to leave by, that the theft was spotted.
Nadeem Aullybocus, prosecuting, said: ‘Miss Spaulding has 33 convictions for an impressive 100 offences.‘The defendant has had every single sentence the court could possibly give her. Alongside the thefts she has also breached her suspended sentence.
‘This is not the first time she has done this.’
Spaulding was given eight months suspended prison sentence by Judge Hagen in 2010 for handling stolen goods and shoplifting.
On that occasion Neil Treharne, defending Spaulding, said: ‘She’s well aware that this is her last chance.’
Mr Treharne, again representing Spaulding today, asked the judge to give his client a spell at outreach centre Eden House Project instead of jail.
Defending, Neil Treharne, said: ‘The Eden House Project is a very worthwhile project.
‘I have seen great success in the past and on this occasion I really think that Sundee is motivated and she would succeed.
I had to post this story as yet another example of a system that is just totally broken and defies any logic. And some wonder at the public skepticism of justice in our countries. What the heck brought courts to thinking like this?

VERMIN ATTACK ON LONDON, AUTHORITIES HELPLESS
The problem is we are not judgemental enough (or some of you aren’t anyway). I know its only a small island, but surely we can take in all the worlds waifs and strays and we can all live happily ever after in one big happy melting pot! Let’s let the whole world in to our country, because apparently there’s no downside to uncontrolled immigration. And if you say there is a downside it will soon be time to start shouting RACIST.

Hell of a way .............
Throw them out. Of course if the Guardian reading lefty Nimby’s are prepared to pay for these Romanians, a roof over their heads, food in their stomach, clothes on their back, together with paying for their private health insurance, their childrens education and a bond to guarantee that they won’t commit any criminal offence that would warrant a jail term, then they are welcome to stay. Alternatively, I would gladly contribute a few ‘bob’ to help these Romanians set up camp on Hampstead Heath. The poor old Roger and Daphne brigade won’t dare leave their homes to go to the wine and sushi bars at night in case they come back to find the Romanians have set up camp in their house.

But I need undivided attention .............
I can only write about the experience we have here in Stuttgart - a small but wealthy city - and therefore a lot of Romanian Beggars - first most of the beggars are actually from Moldova - but due to ethnic reasons have Romanian citizenship - further developments are now they beg using either very old or severly handicapped people to increase the pity effect - and they also tend to use very young puppies to get the cute effect. Unfortunately they are not allowed to keep the money collected rather must hand it all up to so called “controllers” - I wonder what the Romania government is doing to solve what is increasingly becoming a pan European problem.

And figured rightly or wrongly this’d be a good way to get it.
Bothers me on more then one level.
You readers will not be aware of the hoops I had to jump through and the many questions I had to answer, including some personal ones, and then paying several hundred (wife says it was $500 but I don’t remember exact figure) non refundable dollars for my Brit Visa to come to the UK in 2004.
It’s heartbreaking to see our Country being ruined before our very eyes. God help us, they are in every City and Town - even the sleepy little town I live in which is no bigger than a large English Village there is one touting the big issue and another begging outside Boots. This needs sorting out.

In fact ..... the original questionnaire given me was, I think, 30 pages long. Or close to it. When I questioned the length and thought many of the questions didn’t apply to me, the embassy (Brit) gave me the short version. It was about 18 pages.
I bet ya LyndonB might know what I paid in US dollars in 2004. And btw, I had to prove I wouldn’t be a burden, had someone here and we provided the MIL’s name and address as where we were to live, but finally got thru the vetting with relief. They even asked for and got our bank account number.
So then, seeing what I have seen over the years I have been here can send my blood pressure up. And even my wife who has always been the level head and non violent of us, where I get worked up and say shoot the bastards, well, my wife doesn’t cuss but the shoot em idea has begun to appeal even to her.
The above comments are just a few of the 400 so far at the Mail on line with regard to immigration.
And here’s the latest on the influx of verminous scum this country just does not seem prepared to deal with. Cos apparently they have rights and there’s idiot Brits who will defend these dregs, this stain on Europe and curse on England.
Romanian beggars set up camp in central London’s exclusive Park Lane just yards from where they were last evicted· Moved into central reservation after eviction from Marble Arch last month
· Urinating in street in view of capital’s highest-end restaurants and hotels
· British homeless: Too dangerous to sleep rough with knife-wielding migrants
· Coachloads of foreign pickpockets and prostitutes flood streets each day
· Tourist: ‘It’s disgusting. It’s like something from the Third World’
. When you walk past the subway it stinks of urine.’By DAILY MAIL REPORTER
More than 50 Romanian beggars evicted from London’s Marble Arch have moved just a few yards away to the exclusive Park Lane area of the city.
Disgusting: The group regularly urinate in the street, in full view of the area’s top restaurants and hotels
The group have moved to the road’s central reservation within full view of the capital’s high-end restaurants and hotels.They were moved on from the streets around Marble Arch and Oxford Street last month as council workers battle an influx of Romanian crime syndicates ahead of the Olympics.
The gang had been sleeping in cardboard boxes in a subway which runs under the central reservation until the midpoint entryway was barred shut last week.
Coachloads of penniless pickpockets and prostitutes are arriving in the capital every day, many already armed with maps directing them to the best patches, which they have been ordered to defend from rivals.this morning, two police vans were parked in Marble Arch, while a small group of six Eastern Europeans sat nearby with several large black bags.
A British homeless man said it had become too dangerous to sleep out in central London because of Romanian gangs roaming around at night thieving at knifepoint.
Westminster Council has held a summit meeting of local agencies including the Foreign Office and representatives of the Romanian Embassy to discuss the problem.
It repatriated 18 people to Romania recently, but only after the coach company insisted on them being given showers and new clothes before they boarded a bus.
Westminster councillor Nickie Aiken said: ‘These people are dispersing but they are not going away. They are either camping in Park Lane or moving into South Mayfair and around Oxford Street.‘The police and council are doing all we can about this but the taxpayers are picking up the bill, mainly the cost of cleansing because they have no toilets.’
Last night, a group of around 20 - split between elderly women with walking sticks and headscarves and men in their 30s with hooded jackets and mobile phones - sat together on a tatty blanket playing dice for piles of £1 coins in the dual carriageway’s central reservation.Push-along suitcases, beer bottles and carrier bags littered the grass yards from the prestige car dealerships, Speakers’ Corner and some of the capital’s best-known hotels.
‘Police here earlier, no trouble, no problems,’ said one man in his 20s in broken English, before adding: ‘No camera.’An elderly woman broke away from the group to pull down her tights and relieve herself against a fence.
‘It’s disgusting,’ said Brian Portman, 46, from New Zealand, waiting to board an open-top bus tour. ‘It’s definitely not what you expect to see in London. It’s like something from the Third World,’ he told the Standard.Sarah Greene, who has manned an ice cream booth opposite for more than 20 years, said: ‘It’s disgusting. I’ve seen men from the council come down to move them on, but as soon as they leave they come back again.
When you walk past the subway it stinks of urine.’
The council has asked the Foreign Office and the Romanian government for a publicity campaign in Romania to try to deter people from coming.
Hey big shot powers that be. You wanna “deter” then you must give the lice that infest your capital city a demonstration that involves killing a goodly number. And anyway, bullets are cheaper then the money being wasted on the problem now. Those who survive will leave most willingly. And fewer will be willing to risk a trip here. Easy.
Be sure and see the photos at the link.

worthy of a prize. yeah, but what kind? stupid doesn’t cover it.
Howz this in the category of one for the books?
If this doesn’t paint the picture of just how stupid things can get, then nothing else will.
This is a letter to the editor from a retired woman. And boy I’d say she has a problem. I only wish there was a follow up done cos I’d like to know what happened over time.
Under the headline …….
BAD ADVICE, was the following. Take a look.
I’m a pensioner whose mother died last year, after which I decided initially, to rent out her house.
A married couple with three children moved in last October, but as I wanted to put the house up for sale I gave them notice.
Then the husband walked out, and the rent stopped being paid. The wife has now been advised by the (town) council to squat in the house.
How can the council tell someone to do something so wrong? What’s happening when the authorities are recommending such behavior?

How to avoid airport security: Wear a burka.
I wasn’t going to bring this one up again as I’d posted the issue yesterday.
However, Littlejohn writing in the Daily Mail, has addressed it well and really shows the absurdity of the officious trolls who along with the terrorist scum, make the travelling public dread the thought of airports and waits and searches. I think his column today is well worth reading, as it is almost all of the time.
How to avoid airport security: Wear a burkaBy RICHARD LITTLEJOHN
White airline passengers are routinely stopped and searched unnecessarily at Britain’s airports just so staff can prove they’re not ‘racist’.
Even when customs officials have been tipped off about a black drugs mule arriving on a plane from the Caribbean, they deliberately intercept a number of innocent white passengers so they can’t be accused of discrimination.
John Vine, chief inspector of the UK Border Agency, says staff try to ensure the right racial ‘mix’ even though they have no legal right to detain people on such grounds. This is because they are petrified about being hammered with allegations of racism every time they stop and search someone from an ethnic minority background.
Tell us something we don’t know. Airport security operates on the same senseless basis.
We’ve all watched elderly white passengers being put through the third degree, while young Asian men wearing backpacks waft past unchallenged.
I’ve seen distressed grey-haired pensioners being patted down intimately and forced to empty all their belongings out of their hand luggage.
Meanwhile, women in full burkas are waved through with a cheery: ‘Have a nice flight.’Like it or not, though, the fact is that potential suicide bombers do tend to come from that particular demographic. And Al Qaeda suspects have been known to shield their identities behind a burka. Humiliating every Howard and Hilda heading off on a package holiday, just to meet some artificial racial quota, doesn’t serve to make air travel any safer. It is witless, inconvenient and inefficient.
The authorities know that it causes widespread resentment, which is why airports are plastered with notices giving dire warnings that anyone abusing staff will be arrested immediately and prosecuted. There’s something horribly wrong with any organisation which has to threaten its customers with arrest before they get to the counter. I have to bite my lip every time I travel by air to stop myself railing against the insanity of it all, otherwise I’d be in handcuffs before I got anywhere near the departure gate.
Don’t do it, Rich, it’s not worth it.Passing through Britain’s airports is already an ordeal. And now that the CIA claims to have discovered a new Al Qaeda metal-free explosive device aimed at bringing down aircraft, it’s about to get a whole lot worse. Expect even more stringent security, especially on transatlantic flights.
As someone who travels to the U.S. fairly regularly, I’m acutely aware of the threat posed by terrorists. I was on a North West flight into Detroit just two weeks before the so-called underpants bomber tried to bring down another North West plane above the same airport in 2009. So I’m glad that the authorities are doing everything possible to prevent more aircraft being blown up or flown into skyscrapers.
I just wish a little more intelligence was applied to the process.
When was the last time any plane was hijacked by a 78-year-old granny from Leamington Spa? Precisely.The nature of the threat makes the case for racial profiling at airports compelling. The security services already do it covertly. Stopping and searching those who plainly pose no danger, simply for the sake of keeping up appearances, is obtuse.
Yet when Jeremy Clarkson suggested recently that a little light profiling of air passengers might not be a bad thing, the twittering lynch mob went knee-jerk berserk and there were bovine calls for him to be sacked from the BBC.While we are all being urged to ‘celebrate diversity’, we shouldn’t try to kid ourselves that multiculturalism hasn’t brought with it some serious downsides — such as home-grown Islamist terrorists and gangs of Pakistani child rapists.
We’ve all got to rub along in this modern-day melting pot. And that noble ambition isn’t served by ignoring genuine prejudice where it exists, from whichever inconvenient quarter, and gormlessly screeching ‘racism’ where it doesn’t.
Disingenuously insisting that Pakistani child rapists aren’t motivated at least in part by their own wicked brand of racial and cultural bigotry doesn’t do anyone any favours.
And neither does stopping and searching blameless white passengers at Britain’s airports, when you are hoping to catch a black drugs mule.
That’s not a bold demonstration of anti-racism. It’s just plain stupid.

it’s always about race
It’s the way of things nowadays, so it’s not a surprise.
Bru-ha ha over here because an Asian gang, and by Asian specifically men from Pakistan and one from Afghanistan, arrested for the use and abuse of a number of girls, all white, and one it is reported as young as 13. They then shared with other men so you get the picture. The police say it wasn’t about race but about sex.
No folks you know things have come to a pretty miserable pass when a muslim spokesman has to speak for white folks.
He says out loud what everyone except the libtard left has known for awhile. Authorities are so worried about being branded with the ‘R’ word that certain subjects aren’t being discussed.
An obsession with racism that left vulnerable girls at the mercy of sex predators
By MOHAMMED SHAFIQ
And while you’re at it, take a gander at some of the animals involved. Now some of the girls it can be argued should have known better. Some are claiming they didn’t, til it was too late. But rape is rape period and getting girls drunk and then abusing them is vile. Even if the girls weren’t white, it’s vile.
READ ALL HE HAS TO SAY ON THE SUBJECT
Asian grooming gang detectives hunt for FORTY more men who may have had sex with underage girls
Judge says gang preyed on five girls, aged between 13 and 15, partly because they were from different ‘community and religion’
Nine men jailed for a total of 77 years as police prepare to arrest four more
Judge Gerald Clifton dismisses defendants’ claims that prosecution was ‘triggered by race’ after ringleader brands him a ‘racist b******’
But legal counsel for one of the convicted men says he will launch an appeal on the basis of a tweet by BNP leader Nick Griffin
Opportunity to catch the paedophiles missed after complaint four years ago
As many as 47 vulnerable girls were plied with alcohol, gifts and money
They were then passed around for sex with ‘several men a day’
At least one victim forced to have sex with 20 men in one night, police say
Convicted men will be scattered in prisons across the UK and segregated from other prisoners over fears of revenge attacks
Former Labour MP Ann Cryer says gang were left to it because police feared being branded racist.
Oh, and one of the scum has accused the judge and court of being, wanna guess? Yup. You got it.
He said there was nobody from his racial or religious group and therefore the court was, R_________.
So anyway, all of that brings me to this.
Border staff stop and search white air passengers to ‘even up racial mix’
Report finds white passengers are searched to balance out other ethnicities
By JACK DOYLEWhite air passengers are routinely stopped and searched by customs officials simply to ensure the right racial ‘mix’ of travellers are being approached, a report reveals today.
It found staff searching for illegal goods at Gatwick Airport selected white passengers to balance the numbers against black and other ethnic minorities they suspected to help avoid race discrimination complaints.
Details of the practice are exposed in one of two highly critical reports by John Vine, chief inspector of the UK Border Agency, who said it was unlawful and must stop.
The second, criticising Heathrow Terminal 3, raised concerns about queues at the borders and found staff were allowed to clock off at some of the busiest times, resulting in long delays for passengers.
Targets for queuing times for passengers from outside the European Economic Area were breached 62 times between September 18 and 30 last year.
The racial scanning, seemingly widespread at Gatwick, involved pulling out white passengers when officials wanted to question a black passenger.
One official told inspectors he and his colleagues ‘specifically detained a number of white passengers’ from one flight so they could ‘show that white people were also being questioned’.
He said that when they saw arrivals they ‘knew they had a problem’ because the person they wanted to intercept was the only black passenger on the flight.
The inspectors added: ‘The officer also reported that this practice ... is also used for Caribbean flights to reduce the potential for future race claims.’
Mr Vine said the approach was ‘not justifiable’ and that there was ‘no legal basis for detaining people for such purpose’.At Heathrow Terminal 3, inspectors found two-thirds of passenger searches were ‘neither justified nor proportionate or in line with legislation and agency guidance’.
welcome to the brave new world?

VERMIN AT LARGE IN THE UK, PART ONE
Didn’t think I would be on line today but booted to check things.
I wasn’t going to post the story or pix thinking you folks could see the same thing in any country you’re from while visiting us at bmews.
I haven’t a clue about the laws or systems of justice in other countries. But justice seems to be sorely lacking in some western countries and especially here in the UK and perhaps the USA as well.
I’ve been here a number of years which doesn’t qualify me as expert in any way. But heck, I read the papers and listen to the radio, and have no TV by choice.
And what I see and hear makes me despair.
How is it that growing up in a very innocent age, by comparison to today, I still managed to work out right from wrong? I didn’t need anyone to tell me. I knew. We all did. Which ain’t sayin’ we always did right when sometimes wrong was fun or just something we knew we could get away with.
But I promise you we never even thought of doing the things I read about today. Rape? Stabbing ppl? Sure, it happened even then. But never on this scale.
And of course in those days there was the death penalty. Emphasis on that last word. Doesn’t seem to be much of that anymore.
A few weeks ago I saw two stories crime related, never posted cos it was the same old same old. But what did stand out was that in two separate cases the accused when being sent off to prison, shouted out in court, haha. Easy. I can do that.
Another said, “I can do that standing on my head.” Or words similar. They just don’t care and they know they’ll get out sooner rather then later.
One prisoner with a violent background even took the prison to court AND WON the right to be called Mister by the prison guards.
And here’s this group of sub human life forms who if you read it all will discover that for them, they were merely doin’ what comes naturally.
And speaking of what comes naturally, take a good look at this animal.
He looks like he grunts, ape like, instead of speaking as humans do. And he’s only one of that group.
Sickening.
Six months for boy who raped girl of 11 sparks outrage over 16-year-old thug’s soft sentence for attack in McDonald’s toilet
* Series of attacks took place on three separate dates
* Involved up to eight members of the same street gang
* Only two were convicted, but investigations continue
* Ringleader, then aged 13, was jailed for five years
* Judge said attack had ‘far reaching effects’ on victim
* Thugs beat her up to make sure she kept quiet
By KATHERINE FAULKNER
A teenage gang member who raped a girl of 11 in a McDonald’s toilet will serve only six months behind bars after an astonishing ruling by a judge yesterday.
The 16-year-old was one of several thugs who preyed on the ‘vulnerable and lonely’ victim over a number of months.
They subjected the girl to a series of horrific rapes before trying to intimidate her into staying silent.
But incredibly, he was locked up for just one year yesterday after the judge said the victim’s unwillingness to have sex ‘may not have been obvious’ to him and he deserved ‘very great credit’ for pleading guilty.
The teenager – who cannot be named – is likely to serve only six months in a young offenders’ institution.
Last night the sentence was condemned by victims’ groups, who said it trivialised the rape of a child. In law, a girl of 11 is deemed incapable of consenting to sex in any circumstances.
Jo Wood, a spokesman for Rape Crisis, said: ‘Victims will be appalled by this kind of sentence. That victim will undoubtedly serve a life sentence after what has happened to her.
‘It will have taken considerable courage for her to come forward. I am very concerned that this sentence does not reflect the seriousness of the crime at all.
‘Courts will need to seriously consider the message that sentences such as these send out.’
Stephen Timms, the Labour MP for East Ham, said: ‘These attacks were horrendous, repeated and committed by young men who seemed to have little remorse for the trauma they have inflicted on this girl. I am shocked, especially given the gang dimension to this case, that their sentences are so short.’
Conservative MP Philip Davies said: ‘For a court to hand down such a derisory sentence for one of the most serious crimes seems to me to be totally unacceptable.’
Mr Davies said such sentences had ‘left the public with no confidence in the criminal
justicesystem’. He added: ‘It certainly won’t act as a deterrent, or encourage victims of rape to come forward.‘Given how serious the problems with gang culture are in this country, I think it is very weak indeed.’
The victim, who is now 13, stared at the floor in court yesterday as Ibraheem Giwa, 15, and his 16-year-old co-defendant, who cannot be named for legal reasons, were sentenced to five years and one year respectively.
Both had been members of the Say No More gang from the Custom House area of Newham, East London – an area blighted by violent turf wars.
Ibraheem ‘Ibby’ Giwa – described as the ringleader – was just 13 when he carried out the first attack on the girl in September 2009, Inner London Crown Court heard.
He dragged the girl, who had just started secondary school, into the bushes at a park, and raped her while another boy watched. He then invited her to his house, where she asked him: ‘If I do it, are you going to leave me alone?’
Giwa then raped her again, before inviting a queue of up to eight other gang members to do the same.
The victim wept throughout the attacks and asked the boys to ‘stop it’, but they simply told her to stop crying because it ‘made it look like they’d done something’ to her.
She later told police: ‘They didn’t ask me if I wanted it or not.’
Six months later, in March 2010, she was attacked in the toilet of a McDonald’s restaurant in East Ham, East London, by the gang member, then 14, who had heard about the previous rapes.
He followed her into the toilet and raped her while his friends waited outside the door. After the attacks, members of the gang bombarded the victim with texts and phone calls warning her not to tell anyone about what had happened.
On two occasions, she was beaten up as a warning not to report the crimes. When she finally did go to the police, officers seized the defendants’ computers and found that Giwa had discussed the rape with others on Facebook.
In one conversation, Giwa had written: ‘I think the girl we rapped (sic) went to police.’
A 15-year-old, who cannot been named and who was later cleared, wrote: ‘What girl?’ Giwa replied: ‘The girl we bang at my house.’
Passing sentence, Judge Patricia Lees said the rapes had been ‘selfish and debased’ attacks on a vulnerable and lonely child who had been left genuinely frightened of gang reprisals.

I may be off by a day or two, but I do believe today is Peiper’s birthday.
Happy Birthday Peiper!
He’s made it 10 years past retirement. Hurrah!
Cake and ice cream will be served in the drawing room later on. I’d do better to gin up the festivities, but I have to spend the day with my MIL who is nearly as ... mature ... and is in rotten health. We’ll get her ready for her return to the hospital tomorrow, so I won’t have time to post today.

The claustrophobia of diversity.
I am amazed and impressed by this site I found on the recommendation of someone. ENGLAND CALLING A blog site run by Robert Henderson, who I had not heard of till today. But this site and all the links will I am certain keep me pretty busy.
It is I guess a repeat but better said, of things I’ve been ranting about since coming here. LyndonB has also brought up the subject(s) herein.
With regard to the video. I watched it without the music, if it can be called music. Don’t like having my ears assaulted and it loses nothing minus what I call sound effects and many refer to as music. Be all that as it may, it’s the message that counts no matter the background noise.
Yes, it is from one perspective. But I honestly believe it’s the one correct perspective.
This country is really in serious trouble as I view things. It will only be a matter of time before the left has its way and triumphs, destroying forever a culture and tradition that has survived bombs and plagues and home grown terror attacks during “the troubles” which btw, seem to be alive still with the discovery the other day of a 600 pound bomb.
What I have posted below is a very much altered editorial. By that I mean, it’s long but interesting and I had to crop a bit. I suppose I could have done even more but this give you one heck of an idea what this island faces. Sadly and depressingly, I don’t hold out much hope for a future I won’t be around to see anyway. I personally know a few people, not at all bad folks by any means, but to hear them talk about diversity and the benefits of multi-culture and keep in mind, they honestly believe that idiocy. You can see why I think they’re doomed. These folks vote, and so will all those ‘diverse’ and multi cultured immigrants who listen to the lure of the left who pamper them and pay homage to their various imported cultures which in time will supplant the native one.
A Nation in search of a State
This week witnessed the death of Ray Honeyford, the former Bradford Headmaster who had the integrity to speak the truth about the ruinous consequences of multiculturalism, and paid for this with his career. Honeyford, like Enoch Powell, was an outspoken and prescient man of principle who paid a heavy price for speaking the truth. Vilified, scapegoated and threatened with death, this good man was to be proven right, despite the professional naysayers within the race relations and ‘diversity’ industry. Alas, Honeyford has not been the only individual to have had their career destroyed for the sake of protecting the multiculturalist diversity dogma, although other cases have usually received less publicity or none at all.In the same week that Honeyford died, we witnessed Neil O’Brien of Policy Exchange writing a piece in The Telegraph and appearing on Radio 4 talking about the “challenges” of “integration” now that English first language speakers are in a minority in London schools. This in itself is bad enough, but it is also something of a jolt to learn that 16.8% of all state primary schoolchildren in 2011 had “English as an additional language”. This prompted O’Brien to pose the following questions:
“But will children with English as a second language grow up to feel British, to get jobs and to feel included?I think that is the bigger challenge, and the statistics above make me think it is a likely to be a rapidly growing one.”
what we English in particular feel increasingly uneasy with and alarmed about is the mass scale of the immigrant influx and the demographic fecundity of the immigrant population. This theme has very much been in the air this week, with Alasdair Palmer of The Telegraph penning a piece entitled ‘Multiculturalism has left Britain with a toxic legacy’. This conclusion is one that is difficult to disagree with. However, when it comes to the question of “integration”, it strikes me that mainstream commentators are rather missing the point.
The size of the immigrant population is now such that it is not possible to integrate it effectively. Whereas immigration pre-1948 was on a relatively small scale and those who arrived largely assimilated and blended into the indigenous population, what has occurred since has not so much been mass immigration, but mass colonisation. London is now effectively a non-English city, and I no longer regard it as our capital in any meaningful sense, for it has become another land (this transformation was examined in the earlier article Celebrities note the Death of London). Given this fact, why should we wish to “integrate” with incomers who by dint of their numbers threaten not only to displace us, but also to replace us? The task is not so much “integration” as “preservation” of our native peoples and their rights.
Before closing, I shall return to Ray Honeyford and an article penned by Leo Mckinstry for the Daily Mail. In this, it is clear that Mckinstry disapproves of today’s race legislation, and its attendant repressive professional apparatus that justifies its existence through creating an “atmosphere of synthetic outrage”. Mckinstry writes:
“When Honeyford wrote his article, he was branded a heretic. His words had to be suppressed, his influence crushed. But that did not stop him being right.”“In the name of promoting tolerance, race-fixated zealots exercise the most extreme intolerance, suppressing free debate and indulging in witch-hunts against anyone who dissents from their creed of multi-cultural diversity.”

climate change a feminist issue? and keystone kops let thieves go worried bout their safety
It was only minutes after 6pm when I sat down to write this. I had no plans to boot today and although 6pm is quite a bit early to most people, to me it may as well have been the middle of the night.
As regulars at this site know, my wife is suffering from particularly bad case of Shingles. Had they been able to catch it in the first 48 to 72 hours, it would not have been as severe as it became.
There were none of the usual signs to alert her doctor, who misdiagnosed what she saw in my wife’s eye as a scratched cornea. She was immediately sent to an eye clinic late in the day in another city with specialists who agreed the cornea was scratched. And so, for several days that’s what she was treated for, all the while the pain building and a quick call made to the duty doctor who after hearing what was going on re. pain, said he was certain she had Shingles but suggested I bring her in and he’d fit her in as soon as she got to the practise. There are 12 doctors at that office. He took her as soon as we checked in and sure enough …. she had it.
Her doctor has been checking her every week and increasing the dosage of the one drug they claim fights this damned painful infection. So, her meds were increased today and she’s now on 600mg three times a day with something called Gabapentin, plus three other drugs. 200mg of Tranadol 2wice a day and then another pain killer as needed. Plus something called Omeprazole once a day in the mornings to avoid the stomach troubles that can happen with these drugs. In between all that, I keep frozen wash cloths she uses as needed which is often. At least her eye must be healing because she says the itching is driving her nuts, and she wishes she could take out the damn eye and really scratch behind it. So as you might correctly guess, I’ve kinda had my hands full. I can’t describe the pain she has because lets face it, I don’t have it and so can only guess by what I have to see everyday. And it ain’t nice.
Which brings me to, just why the heck did I boot anyway. It really wasn’t to tell you all of that.
Nope. It was an article in a newspaper as usual. I read this thing and I thought, if I go upstairs and go to bed with my book, I’ll feel guilty that I didn’t boot this machine and share what I saw. Because I doubt you will have seen it back home in the states. Or who knows, maybe you have and I’m late.
Whatever, take a look at this. And this is my only post for this day. It can’t get too much crazier.
Can it? Actually, it not only can but it did this week with another story but I’ll get to that another time.
Women are at greater risk from global warming than men, claims MEP in ‘bonkers’ EU row
By TAMARA COHEN
A bizarre row has broken out among EU politicians over whether climate change is a feminist issue.
Members of the European Parliament will vote today on a report by a French Green party MEP who claims global warming ‘is not gender neutral’.
Women, claims Nicole Kiil-Nielsen, ‘consume more sustainably than men and show greater willingness to act to preserve the environment’ as they tend to organise household consumption and childcare.She said that discrimination against women could be made worse in the developing world if climate policies do not take gender discrimination into account.
She was yesterday subjected to a withering attack from Marina Yannakoudakis, a Tory MEP for London, who called her motion ‘bonkers, baseless and bad for women’.The report – Women and Climate Change – calls for a 40 per cent female quota on all EU delegations in climate negotiations and on the committees that allocate climate aid from member states. Funding is set to reach £62billion a year by 2020.
The report also calls for new EU-funded initiatives to help women’s groups get involved in climate policies, and for the EU to start gathering data on the ‘gender sensitive’ effects of climate change on women.
Mrs Yannakoudakis said: ‘This is the kind of thing that gets the EU in general – and its Women’s Rights Committee in particular – a bad name.
‘Where on earth they got the idea that climate change affects women in any way differently from men I have no idea. It would be comical if the people behind the report were not so earnest and its proposals not so patronising to women.‘Global warming is not some male plot to do women down. The climate is the same for males and females so far as I know. When it rains we all get wet.’
Mrs Yannakoudakis and Miss Kiil-Nielsen are both on the EU’s Women’s Rights and Gender Equality Committee that voted to adopt the report into law by a majority of 47 to 7 in January.
Now then for more lunacy, here’s something else that just could not be passed by.
Look at what has become of our world.
Police give up chasing thieves who stole kayak on quad bikes because culprits weren’t wearing crash helmets and could be injured
By RICHARD HARTLEY-PARKINSONCops let a gang of thieves escape after they abandoned a chase over fears for the health and safety of the crooks.
The gang, riding quad bikes, were allowed to flee with a £700 kayak because they had no crash helmet and could have crashed and injured themselves.
After she saw them snatch the boat, owner Rebecca Jones and her boyfriend Mark Skirrow called police and ran off tracking the thieves across fields.
Within minutes police arrived on the scene at Harlington, near Doncaster, so Miss Jones and Mr Skirrow let them take over.
But minutes later the pair watched in dismay as the cops gave up and let the them disappear with the boat before admitting they had abandoned the pursuit because the thieves were not wearing crash helmets and were driving erratically.

wanted. cops with no opinions. must be pc.
Question.
Why can’t off duty police logged on to Facebook or Twitter make unkind remarks on what they see? I Don’t understand why they can’t. OK, some remarks may not be fair. In this case, I’m sure not all of the ladies were actually “tramps” as described. Perhaps many looked it though. But what got my attention was another issue where some cops are, “under investigation” for comments about wanting to beat up rioting students and describing a suspected paedophile who flashed at children in a play area as ‘a dirty scum pervert’.
They didn’t say they’d actually beat up anyone. Only that they’d like to. Is there any cop alive anywhere who wouldn’t like to smack the hell out of some of those grinning, smug stone throwing punks who, ‘know their rights?’ You know the type. You’ve all seen em and many of you would like to take a bat to them yourselves. Cops who talk that way are an exact mirror of what the public thinks and wishes they would do. And what’s wrong with describing someone who flashed children as perverted scum? What else are they if not that? I’m not suggesting we revive the Gestapo but hell, I think the police need to be given some kind of slack. If authorities find inappropriate behavior and clear breaches of law, that’s one thing. But holding opinions most of the public also have shouldn’t be cause for investigations. Should it? Maybe I’m wrong. Maybe I have the wrong slant on things. Alright. If they can’t express what they think between themselves on a social networking site, where would it be okay? In the privacy of their homes? How about out with the guys for a pint and they get talking among friends and fellow officers. But then are overheard by a hand wringing member of the public.
As for remarks made about race goers, they see the worst cases of public drinking and bad behavior. And based on photos we’ve seen here and there over time, because those are the pix the papers just love to publish, there’s a bit of truth in the charge they make.
I’m surprised anyone would want to be a copper these days.
Constable faces inquiry after tirade at Ladies’ Day ‘tramps’
A constable with Merseyside Police is under investigation after launching a tirade against women attending Ladies’ Day at Aintree - accusing them of being heavy drinkers and bad parents.
By Nick BrittenPc David Crawford took to Facebook to mock the women, calling them “tramps” and accusing them of being cheap and common.
He finished his rant with the words: “Ladies Day - more like Halloween”.Ladies’ Day at the Liverpool course, held two days before the Grand National, is the most high-profile event of its kind in British horse racing and a highlight of the British fashion calendar.
the day clearly did not go down with Pc Crawford. He wrote: “Enjoy ‘ladies’ day – ladies” before accusing them of being “back to drinkLambrini at 10 in the morning watching Jeremy Kyle whilst shouting the kids ‘Britney and Tyson come down for ya pork scratching breakfast’.”
He went on to comment on the use of “ten quid fake bake tan....smeared all over the place” and ended with: “Tramps! Ladies Day - more like Halloween! Rant over.”
He went on in response to a comment back at him to say it “does me head in”.
Whilst his comments may have been appreciated as a bit of a joke by some of his friends on Facebook, Merseyside police have taken a stronger view and have referred complaints of the outburst to the force’s standards department.
A spokesperson from the force said: “We have been made aware of some comments made on a social networking site by a person who may be a serving police officer about an event.
“The matter has been referred to the Force’s Police Standards Department.
Fact is, his statement with regard to fake tans was spot on, as one newspaper published a photo of one lady with her tan running down her back in the rain.

elf ‘n’ safety and a vote against competition
Were there any rules like this when we were kids in the olden times?
Two volunteer football coaches have been suspended – for allowing kids to play competitively against each other.
A couple of volunteer coaches who spend hours of their time running a junior league, are to be taken to task and have been ordered to stop their activity, after receiving a complaint. That’s how it was reported. A complaint. I take that as meaning just one goof ball wasn’t happy but hey. That’s all it takes is one.
However, just to get it straight and be fair it should be explained that these miscreants did violate a very important rule.
They breached regs which clearly state that there is a ban on kiddies under the age of 11, from taking part in competitive matches, as per the Central Wales Football Assoc.
Here’s a quote for ya BMEWS.
To protect the losing side, rules dictate that teams belonging to the league must play each other on a friendly basis, with no league table or points being recorded.
In England, the Football Association imposes a similar rule banning under-eights from playing competitive league and cup games.
The coaches, who commit around 1,000 hours a year to organising junior football, were accused of flouting anti-competition rules by organising an additional ‘festival of football’ tournament this season.The coaches’ suspension takes effect from next year.
Now then, is it any surprise to anyone that you will read the following in this morning’s Daily Mail. The story above is the sort of thing that leads to the article below. And just like Drew’s story posted about the New Hampshire gun owner and comments made asking what this world was coming to, well take a look. It’s come to this and it is not the first time in the last year we have read about this kind of lunacy. What makes it so miserable and so dangerous is, there are authorities in power who believe in this kind of thing. And enforce it against all logic.
25 firemen who scrambled to rescue a seagull from a 3ft-deep pond refused to wade in because of regulations - leaving it to Joe Public to save the bird
· Emergency crews forced to watch as bird centre volunteer dons waders and rescues bird from waist deep waters
· Health and safety rules prevented firefighters from risking their lives in the shallow pond
· It is the latest in a string of incidents in which health and safety rules have left 999 crews powerless during an emergency
By ELEANOR HARDING and MARK DUELLIt looked like a major emergency – 25 firemen standing at the water’s edge assessing the life-threatening situation before them.
Stranded 200ft out and struggling for survival was the victim they had come to rescue...a seagull.And if that scenario were not ludicrous enough, there was worse to come.
The firemen were then barred from going into the 3ft-deep water because it was judged to be a health and safety risk.
As crews from five fire engines stood beside the pond in South London for up to an hour, it fell to a member of the public to pull on his waders and rescue the bird, which was caught up in a plastic bag.Ted Burden, who watched the seagull incident unfold, said: ‘The bird must have been in the water for the best part of an hour by the time he was rescued.
‘The plastic bag was caught right around his foot and he was gradually sinking.
‘It was a bit ridiculous really. Five fire crews turned up, but because of protocols they couldn’t go into the water. The water was not really any more than waist deep.‘The gull was rescued just in time. When their feathers become too waterlogged, they get hypothermic and drown.
‘Luckily the gull escaped uninjured. He was just a bit shocked.’The firemen attended Carshalton Ponds in South London at 2pm on Saturday, responding to a call from the RSPCA, which had been contacted by a passer-by.
Crews arrived from Sutton, Wallington and Croydon fire stations. There were no police or health and safety officers present.After a health-and-safety assessment it was decided not to allow the trained rescuers to enter the water, as it would put their lives at risk.
A London Fire Brigade spokesman defended the numbers of firemen sent out, saying it was a standard response to an animal being in trouble.
But she added: ‘We are not willing to put the lives of our firefighters at risk for the sake of a seagull.
Defies logic. Why is it standard procedure to send out all those guys if three feet of water in a pond is life threatening, to a group trained in safety and saving lives? Read the entire article. Authorities knew from the get go it was a bird in trouble. But apparently it might not have mattered if it was a person as we know by now.
‘Our firefighters get called out to lots of different incidents and never know what they’re going to find when they get there.
‘At any incident we need to make sure we have enough staff on hand in case something goes wrong and to ensure that our firefighters, and the public, are safe at all times.’
The fire service later stated that not all the crews had remained at the scene for an hour.
However, a brigade source said firemen were frustrated by the strict protocols they had to follow, which sometimes did not fit the real situations they had to deal with.
The source added: ‘Although we have the facilities to effect a rescue, we are not allowed to do it for a bird. There is no leeway.’
England can thank its lucky star it wasn’t this generation of wimps in charge in 1940.
Bet there are some Germans who wish they had been.

Rabbit’s Busy Day
Much to do today. Plenty of errands and running about, plus Greed League tonight. Won’t have much time to blog.
- What happened to Spring? We had the mildest Winter, and then it got pleasantly warm, the Forsythias are in full bloom ... and it went down to 20°F last night, with the wind howling. Brr! Let’s hope that it doesn’t frost kill the early buds, but does kill off the stink bugs that have started coming out of hiding.
- Gas prices are up again, another 4¢/gal at my local station. Damn.
- a brush fire in Colorado has killed 1 and forced almost 1000 to evacuate
- NC Congressweasel Brad Miller roots for the Taliban - if they’re playing basketball against Duke. This guy must be a graduate of the Biden School of Public Utterance. D’oh!!!
- It’s looking like Trayvon Martin may have been the instigator in the clash that got him killed. Oh, and he was violent and a drug dealer. And the baby faced photo of him that the media ran is not only old, but altered to make him look sweeter. And Zimmerman’s picture was cherry picked too, to make it look like he was in county lockup orange and this was a mugshot. Turns out that Trayvon was a 6’4” linebacker, with gold caps on his teeth and several tattoos. And on a 10 day suspension for beating up a school bus driver. Not so choir boy after all. All this has turned up in the past couple of days, but the police report that says that he attacked Zimmerman from behind and beat the crap out of him, Zimmerman’s wounds, and witness corroboration, has been available for a month now. If it were up to me, I’d arrest the media for stirring the pot. Seems like this one could be exactly the opposite of how it’s been presented. So of course his parents are mad at the police for leaking the information, which is a matter of public record IIRC? Black people, you’ve been played. Again. Be your own Breitbart and don’t accept the meme: whatever the MSM news says is probably a lie.
- Related: Horry Clap. New Black Panthers thug Hashim Nzinga, the guy who went on TV to post “wanted” posters on Zimmerman, got arrested for having a gun while being a felon. He was recently convicted of fraud. And not just any gun, it was the dreaded FN Five-SeveN, the one “made specifically to defeat body armor and kill police” if you believe the hoplophobe hype.
A New Black Panther Party leader who announced a $10,000 reward for the capture of the neighborhood watchman who shot and killed Florida teen Trayvon Martin was arrested Monday outside Atlanta for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, DeKalb County Sheriff’s office said.
...
Last month, Nzinga was convicted for felony deposit account fraud in nearby Gwinnett County, Bell said. It is illegal for a convicted felon to carry a firearm in the state and police were alerted to Nzinga’s alleged possession after the store’s transaction, Bell said.
I have no idea if the fraud case was Nzinga’s first felony conviction, or even his first criminal prosecution. Guess his lawyers forgot to tell him that he had to turn in his firearms, not sell them. Meh; I think he’s got a chance, assuming it was his first felony. Any decent lawyer ought to be able to argue that having these expensive possessions taken from him without reasonable compensation is excessive punishment. Even having the police sell them for him would be a duress situation, as anyone would know they could offer the cops pennies on the dollar and not get turned down.
But “un-kudos” to CNN and other TV dopes for having this guy on, practically the very same day his felony conviction came down, and not knowing or saying a word about it. Bias, or just plain laziness?
- Finally an actual archeologist has found a horde of Roman coins in England! 30,000 of them, buried near the ancient city of Bath. All the other finds have been due to some yob with a metal detector. Must be nice to get a little professional respect for once, doing the job that the horrid amateurs seem to do better.
- The good old Al Jazeera news folks have decided NOT to run the murder videos mysteriously sent to them, that show French jihadist Mohamed Merah killing soldiers and a Jewish family. Smart move on their part I say; that should keep any stray French JDAMs from accidentally falling on their offices. Meanwhile, French cops have arrested Merah’s brother, figuring that it takes two to tango, and at least two to jihad.
- Recovery? What recovery? Latest report shows home sales down again after a microscopic uptick the past couple months. Now prices have hit a 10 year low, down more than a full third since their bubble peak in the summer of 2006. Meanwhile, The Bernank follows Obama Rule #1 and blames somebody else: the Fed didn’t cause the housing bubble. No, Fannie and Freddie did, under Carter and Clinton’s laws, with full support from the Fed. Shades of difference to the folks now living in cardboard boxes. PS - the Bernank bears are back, to deal with QE3. A B- effort IMO.
Ok Drew, put the keyboard down, and step away from the blog. You’ve got things to do today, get ‘em done.
Ok, I’m out of here. Play nice with the other children.

Sunday - March 25, 2012 inavded by a small town in romania?
Did not know I was booting today until I saw this.
Welcome to America?
Well, if not today then coming soon to a city near you.
I see these vermin in the very same light as the muzzie jihadi scum. The world’s cancer. And both should be annihilated.
Much of this problem of course is the result of the one world open borders that the UK is sadly tied to. And will remain so for the foreseeable future.
Anyway, what’s a bit jail time to these folks? A break from their normal working hours while their offspring learn the family trade.Rolling in it: The Romanian fraudsters who raked in £35m in cash machine scam
More than 90 per cent of cash machine fraud in UK attributed to Romanian criminal gangs
Most of those arrested have links to the same city: Bacau in eastern Romania
Proceeds of crime ‘now makes up 70 per cent of Bacau’s economy’
By Kerry Mcqueeney
As well as Britain, it is thought criminals from Bacau are operating in Latin America, Australia and the U.S.A.
Playing on a bed of banknotes, this innocent baby is - literally - rolling in it.
The infant clutches £20 notes in his tiny hands, oblivious to the origin of the dirty cash.
For these are the proceeds of a Romanian fraudster behind a cash machine scam - one of many targeting British bank customers.
The picture of the baby rolling in money plundered from British bank accounts was just one image found by police on a phone seized when officers raided a safe house used by a Romanian gang.
More than 90 per cent of all cash machine fraud in the UK is attributed to these and hundreds of other Romanian criminals, according to senior investigators.
The scams involve camouflaged electronic devices being fitted to the facade of cash machines in Britain which ‘skim’ victims’ data and PIN numbers to create replica cards.
The clones are reproduced to withdraw cash from any of the country’s 60,000 dispensers, with an average of £500 being withdrawn on each card.
The device takes under a minute to fit to the front of a cash machine and it can store the details of hundreds of customers’ cards.
The head of the police unit tasked with tackling the problem said the fraudsters stole £35million from British bank customers last year - and most of those arrested in connection with the scams had links to the same location: the city of Bacau in eastern Romania.
Bacau-based Adu Baunu, convicted in 2008 for credit card fraud, took a picture of his baby rolling in cash stolen from British cash machinesBacau-based Adu Baunu, convicted in 2008 for credit card fraud, took a picture of his baby rolling in cash stolen from British cash machines
Detective chief inspector Paul Barnard, from the dedicated cheque and plastic crime unit run jointly by the Metropolitan and City of London police forces, said it was ‘striking’ that 92 per cent of those arrested, or brought to attention of police in relation to cash machine crime, were Romanian nationals.
He told the Sunday Times: ‘Most of the hundreds of Romanians arrested in the past 12 months are from Bacau or have connections to that region.’
Proceeds of crime is now thought to make up 70 per cent of Bacau’s economy, a senior Romanian lawyer claimed last week.
The flow of cash into the city is so great that an array of mansions have sprung up in the area and a number of expensive car dealerships have opened.
Many of the criminals seem content to flaunt their ill-gotten gains in their home country, splashing out on expensive cars and gaudy houses.
The baby in the picture is the child of thief Adu Bunu - from Bacau - who was jailed in 2008 for a hole-in-the wall scam estimated to have netted more than £1million.
He flashed his stolen cash by taking photographs of his infant son Eduardo playing among the banknotes.
And two recently jailed brothers, who ran a criminal gang in Romania, own a string of properties across Bacau.
