pc outrage, as train conductor tells passengers, ‘beware gipsies and pickpockets’

Soon as I saw this, even before I finished reading all of the morning paper, I knew it had to be shared,
What a bunch of phoneys.

I think his comment should be seen as a public service announcement.

I’d be greatly willing to bet that most of the “anger” is nothing more than one or maybe two pol. correct schmucks, who really aren’t angry but think they should be.

What was racist about the comment?  And btw, it was something you’d be warned about at many train and bus stations by tour guides on the continent.
And may remind the readers, it only takes one complaint by one idiot who says he or she is “offended”, to launch a police investigation.

Fuckin people today are total loons I swear they are. And worse of course are complete idiots who buy into this and are in positions of authority.

Pickpockets be aware, are a continuing and growing menace on this side of the Atlantic.  And Roma Gypsies lead the pack, training their young to carry on the family (and cultural) tradition.  They are worthless slime, they pollute the very air more advanced cultures must breathe.  But the very first group that ought to be deleted, are the pc ass-wipes who defend them, as well as the dupes and fools like the people mentioned in the story below, who take it upon themselves to be, “offended”.
I don’t want them offended. I want them graveyard dead.

Anger at train firm’s gipsy jibe: Passengers react with disgust after conductor’s comments as service pulled into Telford

· London Midland service warned passengers of ‘gipsies’ in Shropshire
· Conductor also told people ‘beware pickpockets’ at Telford Central station
· Gipsy Council have branded the comments ‘racist’ and ‘unlawful’

By Daily Mail Reporter

Train passengers were astonished when the conductor told them to ‘beware of gipsies’ as they pulled in to a station.

The London Midland service was stopping in Shropshire on Saturday when the announcer said: ‘Now approaching Telford Central. Beware of gipsies and pickpockets.

‘Many passengers and residents reacted with disgust at the offensive comments.

(How many were the many?  Two? Three?  A guess? One and a half ? )

Father-of-three Mark Peaker, 47, from Telford, said: ‘I couldn’t believe what I was hearing – they have not only used a derogatory term they have managed to offend an entire town.
‘Somebody in a professional role should not be insulting places while they are working.

‘I’m all for them having a sense of humour but this was not funny at all and I hope he is disciplined.’

The Gipsy Council today called for the matter to be taken up with the police and branded the remarks racist.

Bill Kerswell, a spokesman for the council, said: ‘This is unlawful, it is a racist comment.
‘It is the same as using any offensive word relating to homosexuals or people of colour.

‘I would think it is a police matter and I hope they take it up and look into it.’

A London Midland spokesman said the operator had been unaware of the incident but had launched an investigation, adding: ‘We do not tolerate any sort of comment of that kind made by anyone on our trains.’

This bmews reader, is what this country has sadly become. I hate to see it and hear it.  Wanna guess what the next generation is being filled with in schools?

it just does not get much dumber

People just are not getting smarter.  They can’t be when things like this occur.

They saw the thief but refuse to ID based on the rights of the thief.

It isn’t April first already, is it?

Btw ... I’m sure you have noticed but just in case, the Mail can’t afford proof readers. The headline” stole expensive pram form surgery” should read from and not form.

Surgery staff told Hayley to call police and when officers arrived to view the security film workers immediately recognised the suspect.

But they refused give her name, saying it would break data protection and patient confidentiality laws.

Avon and Somerset Police have now been forced to release CCTV images to the public in the hope that they can trace and question the woman.

However, a spokesman for the Information Commissioner’s Office said that the act should not be used to block an investigation.

A spokesman said: ‘While I cannot comment on this specific case, where police have reasonable grounds to believe a crime has taken place the act should not be a barrier to that investigation.’

if it isn’t april first, then this will be the dumbest thing you will read all year.

Well now ... when I said insanity in a post earlier today ... I did not have this in mind. First, who could possibly imagine this bit of total loony tunes?
I had not yet seen this one or I might have posted it first. Better late than never.

OK wait a minute.

Either this is a very early April 1st send up, or the tea at the kop shop has something illegal in it. Come on. This just can not be real.

Or .... can it?

Police ask the public to identify knife-wielding robber using THIS picture where his face is completely hidden then say they can’t call him a suspect because it would breach his HUMAN RIGHTS

· Dorset Police say naming man as suspect could impede ‘right to a fair trial’
· The man is shown on CCTV gripping a knife in bookies that was robbed
· Dorset residents poke fun at local force’s bizarre appeal

By Martin Robinson

With his face covered by a makeshift balaclava and a knife gripped in his right hand during a robbery at a bookmakers, it is probably safe to say this man is up to no good.

CCTV footage also shows him threatening a cashier at Ladbrokes in the east Dorset village of West Moors before making off with cash from the till.

But today the county’s over-cautious force refused to call him a suspect in the violent crime, in case it breaches his human rights.

And detectives have appealed for the public to help identify him - even though his face is impossible to see - and even hope he might come forward himself.

A force spokesman maintained today the man in the photos is not necessarily the robber, just ‘someone we want to talk to’ in connection with the attack.

This is because Dorset Police believe calling him a wanted man could impact on his ‘right to a fair trial’, and they say they would treat any person potentially involved in a crime in the same way.

They have also failed to issue a description of the robber, leaving out key details such as his height, build and accent.

Members of the public who are being asked to help name the offender took to internet message boards to poke fun at the appeal.

One wrote: ‘This has to be a wind up. Not sure what’s more laughable, the detective asking the man to contact him - errr do you really think that’s likely? - or the CCTV image showing a man with his face completely obscured from view?’

Detective Constable James Lee, the investigating officer, said: ‘I am now able to release CCTV images of the man I wish to speak with.

‘I urge the man pictured - and anyone who recognises him - to contact me, in confidence, as soon as possible.

‘I also would like to hear from anyone who saw this man enter or leave the premises around the time of the incident.’

When asked about the fact that the suspect’s face is hidden, a force spokesman said: ‘We are looking for people to identify the man, not just his face.

‘We are not suggesting the man in the pictures is the suspect, just someone we want to talk to.’

The spokesman confirmed that no arrests have been made in connection to the raid.

dumb and dumber but some dumb is really dangerous

The other day I wrote something about a truly wacky woman who happens to be a cousin to my wife. A liberal, no surprise, who is dumb in the extreme. The cousin, not the wife.

Well, while this doesn’t come close to Poor Brain Dead Cousin Jo, it surely is right up there in the pantheon of dumb.  Like, what ever gave this guy the delusion he seems to suffer from.

It’s not fall on the floor funny, really kind of pathetic actually.

Take a look.

Furious customer sends complaint to Trading Standards after being turned down by prostitute at brothel

Client complained he had travelled some distance only to be turned away
Harrow Council considered his written submission but could not help
‘This is a new one on us. The trading standards manual doesn’t cover it’

By Martin Robinson

A scorned customer left embarrassed after a prostitute refused to have sex with him has complained to trading standards about her brothel.

Harrow Council has admitted it was shocked when they were asked by the client to punish the sex worker and her employer because of his ‘wasted trip’.

The unnamed man told a trading standards officer that he had travelled some distance from a neighbouring London borough to pay for sex and prostitutes should not act like that.

But town hall officials left him further disappointed because current regulations did not cover his complaint.

‘The gentleman seemed very aggrieved. He told us he believed he had been refused and was angry about the fact,’ a council source said.

‘The man said he had travelled from a neighbouring borough in North London, so was obviously a bit upset by his wasted trip.

‘He filled in the form pretty seriously and gave us his contact details.’

Although the complainant was left unsatisfied by the council’s response, the brothel has since been shut down.

Harrow Council leader Susan Hall, said: ‘Prostitution may be the oldest profession in the world, but a complaint of this sort is a new one on us. The trading standards manual doesn’t really cover it.

‘I would like the gentleman involved to visit Harrow again, but perhaps this time he could enjoy some of our more wholesome pursuits - like our wonderful open parks, leisure centres and historic churches.’

source

The DOH gong btw isn’t owned exclusively by civilians like the fellow above, or cousin Jo.
How’s this for dumb and dumber?

Not the first time for this issue and in fact it happened a few months ago. Here’s the very same show only another new face to add to the scenery cop shows and books call, rogues gallery. Another example of ... What the hell are they thinking?  This in reference to the authorities whose duty one might think, is the protection of the public.  But no.

Another convicted killer is on the run while on a town center visit. Yeah, he had guards but, erm.  Seems he got away anyway from them.

The killer was out on day release while serving ..... A Life Sentence!  Which I guess these days doesn’t actually mean life.  Well hell you know. It all depends on what you mean by ... “LIFE”.

The murdering bastard broke into the home of an old man age 85, and battered him to death.  So then no day release or civil or human rights for an old man who was a total stranger to him.

The killer, whose name is Paul Maxwell, is still on the loose.  He’s out there somewhere, because he has “rights”.
And because the totally laughable and incredibly DUMB system in play and often referred to as a ‘justice’ system, allows day release for violent and often deadly criminals, lawful and law-abiding citizens will always be at some risk.  So it begs the question, who exactly is looking out for their rights?

I can not bring myself to believe that lunacy like the above is the result of conservative thinking.

the continuing adventure in trying to make sense where there isn’t any. the wife’s screwball cousin

Poor Brain Dead Cousin Jo. The adventure continues.
Saturday, February 22, 2014

The folks who are regular bmews readers have seen one of the things I am about to write before.  In fact … they have read it at least three times, and there’s a good reason for that.

Since there are always new folks stopping by to read this site, and newer folks who do not comment but missed the past post on the topic, it’s important to repeat it.

It isn’t enough to merely tell you how very stupid my wife’s cousin is.
I have to lead this post with an old example, although the newest which I will get to, is pretty extreme all by itself.

This is a woman so stupid and so scatterbrained, she once called us to ask how one gives oneself …. an enema.  She never, she assured us, had to do that and so had no experience, and didn’t understand the instructions. 

It all started some yrs ago when I found the woman is so dumb, she was worth writing about.  Since I do not see or speak to her as often as I once did, as she used to visit the house frequently back then, over time there have been fewer stories to share about the person I have dubbed:

POOR BRAIN DEAD COUSIN JO, the continuing saga into the witless, kooky mind of our subject.

Every once in a great while she does provide reason to share some new bit of idiot’s delight.  As happened yesterday.

The wife got a call from a very happy and excited PBDCJ, ( see above) who was thrilled to discover that the new phone she bought a couple of weeks ago,
has a speaker phone.  Which means she no longer has to hold anything in one hand to her ear. Only drawback was that the base seemed a bit heavy to speak into. Say What?

Now understand I’m party to only one side of the conversation and that means all I heard was my wife telling her, no. You don’t need to hold the base up. Put it down and simply talk.
Story does no end there.

In the very late afternoon our phone rang, I picked up and guess who.
What?  Some newer disaster?  Well, in a way. 
She called to ask me how to use her speaker phone as she couldn’t understand or recall how she discovered it in the first place when she called earlier.

Jo is the sort of person who will call and ask a question and then repeat it and then make a comment on it while all the time, you are trying to answer her question. But she generally isn’t listening to you because, she is still talking and saying the same things.

I tried telling her that since the phone was new she should still have the instruction book that comes with those things. She said she did have it.  I told her there would be an illustration showing her what each feature was and what they did. I also mentioned that usually there was a button right there on the front of her phone base.

She then started telling me at was a BT phone and the model number, blah,blah,blah.
She was still talking when I hung up.

show me the way to go home, i’m tired and i wanna go to bed. i had a little drink about an hour ago

So then. Watcha think?

Will this bring back Polish jokes?

· Mikolaj Tomaszewski, 38, drinking all afternoon in Gielniow, Poland
· Called son Juliusz, told him to cycle to the pub then drive him home
· Told police he lets eight-year-old practice driving at the weekends
· Juliusz lost control, went into other lane, hit one car then another
· All cars written off and five people taken to hospital with cuts and bruising

As the eight-year-old struggled behind the wheel of the Opel Corsa, he pulled in front of a car coming the other way at a crossing.

The collision sent them flying across the road into a third car.

breast feeding as make believe activity for gender neutral boys? sick and stupid adults of the left

Idiot parents give us this headline this morning.

If Max wants to wear a pink tutu and fairy wings, he can: Parents raise their son as a boy AND a girl so he won’t ‘grow up aggressive’

At the tender age of one year old, how would poor little Max know a tutu from a mini skirt?  He’s a baby for gosh sake and knows only what he is told.

For example, here’s a quote from the article below. See what you make of this.

He swiftly grabbed a blonde-haired doll, sat her in a pink plastic pram, and took her on a short walk, stopping only when it was time to pretend to breastfeed her.

No way a one yr old would play that way, even a little girl that age would not be that aware of breast feeding as a game of make believe. An adult had to teach the kid in this story. 

This isn’t the first time we’ve seen this sort of insanity, and I suppose it’s catching on among the politically correct.

If you take a good look at daddy at the link … he appears more feminine than the masculine looking wife.

I had a lot more to say but thought better of it and so will simply share this latest with you.  As to little Max’s “confidence”, I’d make a guess he’ll end up confused if not angry at the parents. 

· Max Price’s parents Lisa and Martin are raising their son according to the technique known as ‘gender-neutral parenting’
· Toddler is happy playing with his collection of toy cars and revels in wearing his favourite dresses and tutu
· Mother Lisa said: ‘Gender stereotypes can be so damaging’
· The couple say they hope their decision will help boost Max’s confidence

By Guy Adams and Andy Dolan

Max Price is a happy, healthy one-year-old boy who spent yesterday morning playing with his vast collection of toy cars, planes, tractors, and dinosaurs.
Dressed in a red checked lumberjack shirt and rust-coloured jeans, he shouted ‘beep beep!’ and giggled with delight while pushing a plastic motorbike around the living room of his family home.

Then, after lunch, a strange transformation occurred.
Max scampered upstairs to his bedroom with his 23-year-old mother, Lisa, and re-emerged several minutes later wearing a dark blue, knee-length dress decorated with pink flamingos.  He swiftly grabbed a blonde-haired doll, sat her in a pink plastic pram, and took her on a short walk, stopping only when it was time to pretend to breastfeed her.

Later in the afternoon, the child collected several more dolls, found a selection of pink toy cups and saucers, and staged an impromptu tea party.
Max, who turns two later this month and lives in Walsall, is being raised according to a radical technique known as ‘gender-neutral parenting’.

It means Lisa and her husband, Martin, 34, encourage him to wear both boys’ and girls’ clothes, and to play with conventionally female – as well as male – toys.
Rather than being worried if he decides not to play football, and asks instead for someone to paint his fingernails with glittery polish, they instead see it as a form of cute self-expression.

‘If Max wants to wear a pink tutu and fairy wings, then he can wear it,’ says Lisa. ‘He’s just expressing himself. I don’t want to put him in a certain box and treat him that way. I want to teach him to be whatever he wants to be. He can pick his own clothes and, as long as they’re warm enough for the winter, I’ll get him whatever he wants.’

just another sign of our times

A very short story that says a heck of a lot about our times.

Councils these days have nothing better to do. 

How the F.  did civilization ever advance this far using these very incorrect words?

Council bans ‘the elderly’: Staff booklet suggests using the term ‘older people’ instead

Rule was revealed in 31-page booklet for Denbighshire County Council staff

North Wales authority also says calling people ‘love’ or ‘pet’ can be offensive

TaxPayers’ Alliance: It’s a waste of time and pointless pontificating

By Daily Mail Reporter

Town Hall chiefs have banned staff from using the term ‘the elderly’ and suggested ‘older people’ as an alternative.

According to Respect, a 31-page booklet handed out to 5,000 employees at Denbighshire County Council in North Wales, the word elderly is an ‘unacceptable’ phrase.

Similarly, an office is not manned but staffed, dinner ladies should be referred to as catering staff, workmen are workers, headmaster is head teacher, chairman is chairperson and a child or youngster is a younger person.

The booklet, produced in Welsh and English, told staff: ‘We should not make assumptions based on someone’s age.

‘Being older in the UK carries views of being worn out and of little use, it is also used as a term of abuse.

‘Youth can be seen as representing inexperience and unreliability.’

It added: ‘The terms love, dear, pet may be considered offensive by some people, particularly women and should not be used.

‘We should always consider whether it is necessary or appropriate to use labels to describe people and we must be careful not to patronise people by undermining their individuality.

National stereotypes: Staff are told to avoid works like ‘Jock’ for Scottish. The guide says labels should be avoided and adds: ‘We must be careful not to patronise people by undermining their individuality’

‘Don’t say “some of my friends are gay,” “you’re just like one of the lads,” “I remember when I was young” or “you might not want to do that at your age”.

Also banned are Paddy or Mick for Irish, Jock for Scots and Taff for Welsh.

And instead of saying Christian name, staff should say ‘first name’ or forename.

Robert Oxley of the TaxPayers’ Alliance said: ‘Denbighshire council need to waste less time and less taxpayers’ money producing bureaucratic garbage and instead focus on providing services that residents and the elderly rely on… rather than this ridiculous taxpayer-funded pointless pontificating.

one for the books and has crap written all over it.

Dear bmewsers .....  and anyone else passing by.

You really should take a look at this. It’s good for a laff of sorts ... and frankly I believe her.

In the first damn place, this is what happens when idiot jobsworths are given a uniform.  And btw ... bad as this may appear to say, I knew before I played or read the article that the so called compliance office was not a Brit.  I don’t care if he has citizenship. He is NOT a Brit. 
Anyway ...  He accused this woman of not attending to her dog, who he said had made a mess, in an area she had not even been in.  So she asked him to show her where the poo was and she’d pick it up, and he couldn’t do that. But the silly shit kept on talking over her, never allowing her a word in, and then called the police. He even threatened to arrest her himself. 

Most of the confrontation was videoed by another woman. There are a ton of still shots, but please by all means read this article. It isn’t long.

When Littlejohn said “we’re going to hell in a handcart” and when Vilmer years ago told me that this place was “Doomed,”

This HAS TO BE what they were talking about. 

The ass wipe here should be sacked. Of course they won’t do that cos ... that might violate his “rights” and be racist besides. 

The video btw is only 5 minutes, not the ten mentioned below.

Take a gander at this.

‘999, we have a dog poo’: Council jobsworth threatens ‘non-compliant’ woman with arrest over dog mess… that was nothing to do with her pet

Tower Hamlets Enforcement Officer accused Amber Langtry, 35, of leaving her dog’s remains in Victoria Park, East London

Miss Langtry denied the allegation but offered to pick it up if the park attendant could take her to it

Accusing her of ‘non-compliance’, he called in police ‘back-up’ to the scene

By William Turvill

Miss Langtry denied the allegation, trying to explain that her dog had not been in the area where the attendant found the faeces, but still offered to pick it up to end the confrontation.

In the ten-minute video the officer is heard accusing the woman of ‘non-compliance’ and calling officers to the scene.

He described Miss Langtry’s friend, who was recording him with her iPhone, as ‘aggressive’.

At one point, she is heard on the video saying: ‘He can’t even show us the poo - it’s ridiculous!’

Miss Langtry told the paper: ‘I remember thinking, “This is ridiculous. Why does he need police back-up for a five-foot-four woman looking for a dog poo?”’

‘When the police got here they were as bemused as I was, and they didn’t have a problem with me or my dog.’

After half an hour, Miss Langtry was shown the poo, which she maintains was not left by her dog.

She told Mail Online: ‘As I am a reasonable person, and would never leave a dog faeces behind, I picked it up in a poo bag and popped it in a nearby bin.’

She was told by Tower Hamlets council, in a five-page letter, that it will not be continuing prosecution, but that the officer has the power to deal with an offence ‘of failing to remove dog faces [sic]’.

The ten minute version is below at the Evening Standard, with some text not in the Mail article.

There are no winners in this game. No losers either on points scored. just the children

I didn’t expect to be posting today, thought I’d be recuperating from an uncomfortable exam at the hosp. clinic.  But my fears were groundless and the lady who did the work was very good, and a credit to the Winchester hosp.  I have found a goodly number of extremely professional, caring, and friendly people here, in spite of the everyday bad news about incompetent practitioners in the NHS.  I don’t doubt there are many as there would be everywhere. But mostly the people I have encountered here are top drawer.

So, came back to house and attacked the fridge and brought food to table and started to read the following, losing my appetite in the process.

This is an old story in a remake of an older movie. In other words, although this bit of insanity has been reported before, and since not a lot has been written about it in awhile, I had no idea the monster was still alive.  My gosh how can reasonably well educated people in positions of authority, wallow in this bizarre and senseless thinking?  Here’s what I’m banging on about. Take a look.

How will youngsters learn about life if we don’t let them win (and lose) at games?

By Colin Dunne

The old boys with the crumpled ears, the knackered knees and the Mike Tindall noses will be weeping into their pints. Their game, rugby, which is possibly the last area of life where you can find Real Men, has finally been seized by the politically correct.

Surrey Rugby are insisting that their ‘mini rugby’ teams, for children aged six to 11, must be of mixed ability — no ‘A’ and ‘B’ squads here — and that any team that is winning too easily must be deliberately weakened by having better players moved elsewhere. There must be no overall winners in the junior league.

No winners? That’s right. Hence no losers either. Every game must be declared a draw. Difficult to strap your boots on with any enthusiasm for a game that has an unsatisfactory result before you even start.

You can imagine the muttering in club bars about how this, once the most manly of games, is going soft: ‘They’ll be wearing hard hats and hi-viz jackets next.’

You can see why they’re worried. Rugby has suffered some grievous blows in recent years. We old hands smiled scornfully when women and girls started playing. Then, most annoyingly, they turned out to be rather good at it.

Puritans rolled their eyes when children learning the game were encouraged to play ‘touch rugby’, which does not allow aggressively physical tackles, and then when ‘tag rugby’ was introduced, in which players have to pull a Velcro tag from the ball carrier — before playing it as a full contact sport.
And now this.

The idea behind Surrey Rugby’s new wheeze is presumably to save the kids from the psychological damage that might be caused by losing a Sunday morning game.

It’s the same thinking which lay behind the firing of Justin Byrne, an under-tens football coach in Buckinghamshire last month. Byrne appalled the boys’ parents by insisting that football was not about having fun and that he was ‘only interested in winning’.

The no-nonsense coach also said that parents who complained when their lad did not make the first team were ‘not doing their sons any favours’. Those who opposed him were ‘weak-minded’ and ‘think sport is about knitting’.

His draconian approach saw him fired four days after making the comments. Are we all going soft?

I used to coach mini-rugby and I can assure you that, in boys, the urge to win, run faster and bash harder than your mates is in the blood.

For many youngsters — and not just in rugby, but in football, cricket, pretty much any competitive sport — it’s as basic as breathing. And to try to curb a child’s natural exuberance on the playing field is, in my view, simply wrong.

Even if parents, teachers and coaches profess not to know who won and lost, who played well and who was rubbish, who scored and who didn’t, the children will know. And nothing will stop them saying so either. They like winning, and they enjoy having a little crow about it.

tighten belts at home …. cut some benefits …. then give billions away to foreign govts.

I happen to see a brief news item this morning of further cost cutting by the government.  The man in charge of this says it will be necessary, on top of cuts made already, to steer the ship of state to safer economic waters.  That last bit being my words as that’s pretty much what he meant.  So apparently it will be necessary to cut the free TV License to old folks over 75.  Doesn’t bother me any, no TV anyway.  A couple of other suggested as possible cuts will be free bus fare for seniors over 65, and winter fuel refunds. (no, not your whole bill. It’s a partial kick back from govt. We got £200 for example. You don’t apply for it, you just get it.)

However …. while I can understand the government needs to tighten the national belt somewhat, what I do not understand is the huge sums spent overseas on aid to foreign governments.

Like this one for example.
And boy oh boy what an example this is.  It is not a new story, in fact it’s a few months old, but nevertheless says a lot about the fiscal insanity taking place.

Take a look.

£1billion of your cash is being used to help Nigeria join the space race

· Oil-rich country has accepted £300million in aid this year alone
· Plans for Nigerian astronauts to join missions within next two years
· But 70 per cent of the country live below the poverty line of £1.29 a day
· Row ignited by UKIP MEP Godfrey Bloom’s ‘Bongo Bongo land’ comments

Nigeria is spending millions to put a man into space – as Britain hands it more than £1billion in foreign aid.
The oil-rich country, which has accepted £300million this year alone, has set in train ambitious plans to launch its own rockets.
And the first Nigerian astronauts are being trained to join Russian, Chinese or American missions within the next two years.

Last night critics asked why Britain was, in effect, subsidising a space programme for a nation where 70 per cent of people live below the poverty line.

The £1.14billion Nigeria will receive over the five years of the Coalition is double the £500million set aside to prop up struggling accident and emergency departments at our own hospitals.
Backbench Tory MP Philip Davies said it was ‘totally unjustifiable and unaffordable’ for Britain to give this money to Nigeria, given the scale of its ‘grandiose’ space programme.
‘We cannot go around the world saying “don’t worry, we will feed your public for you while you waste your money on all sorts of other projects”,’ he said.

a fight for women’s rights ….  this time … the targets are train drivers and kiddie cartoon

Too often I see examples of people with too much free time, who have as their sole entertainment, the screwing up of the language and making up, a down thing and down, whatever else they want it to be.
When they have a break in this arduous schedule they look for people they can represent who have been wronged, even when they don’t know or believe they have been.  Here’s a perfect example of just how sexist our culture has become over time, even with feminism and human rights and civil rights being legislated to the degree that nowadays, almost anything anyone says to anyone else, may be taken in such a way as to suggest racism, ageism, sexism and anything old thing you can dream up.

Why aren’t there more female train drivers?  You people never give that any thought.  Do you?  Of course you don’t.
You’re probably uncaring about women’s issues and might be a misogynist.
Have you taken notice btw, of how often that last word pops up in our media, mouthed most often by ppl on the left?  All one has to do is disagree with some feminnazi on any issue and you are ipso facto, a misogynist.
Try living that one down.

So back to trains and drivers and women.  I have no idea of how many ladies there are who surf by this site, but would dearly love to know how many had as a lifelong dream, the idea of being a train driver.  Btw … there actually are a few.  And it matters greatly to a woman named Mary Creagh.
Ms Mary is quite put out that there are so few and even worse, the train driver industry, which is far smaller than the civil rights industry, hasn’t enough train drivers.  And whose fault is that?  Who must answer now to this outrage?  Why …..  this guy.

THOMAS THE TANK ENGINE that’s who.  And he’s been at this nefarious deed for many years you bet.  That’s right!

Thomas the Tank Engine is Sexist, Says Labour MP Mary Creagh

Classic children’s show ‘to blame for lack of female train drivers in Britain’

By Dominic Gover

A Labour politician has launched an attack on the children’s classic Thomas the Tank Engine with a broadside against the TV show’s portrayal of “female” locomotives.
Mary Creagh blamed the programme, which is based on the series of stories and books written in the 1940s by Rev W Awdry and his son, for a lack of female train drivers in Britain.
Thomas and his steam-powered friends have being chugging around Sodor on television since 1982, but only one of the main cast of engines is female.
Creagh, who is shadow transport secretary, called “a national scandal” figures that revealed that only 4.2% of train drivers in the UK were women. She laid in to Thomas the Tank Engine for allegedly pumping out the wrong message to young girls.
According to Creagh, the female characters in the show are an “annoyance” that posed a hazard to other characters on the show.
She said: “In the Thomas the Tank Engine books there are almost no female engines. The only female characters are an annoyance, a nuisance and in some cases a danger to the functioning of the railway.
“There is a preponderance of men in the transport industry and I am very keen to unpack some of the myths that stop women from taking up what are often highly paid and highly skilled jobs.”
Creagh hailed changes made by the television industry to redress the balance of male to female characters with shows such as Underground Ernie, but insisted that more had to be done.
“There have been some changes. Underground Ernie is wonderful, and there are some female trains in that. But again it is called Underground Ernie, not Underground Rosie.”
A spokeswoman at Hit Entertainment, which owns the rights to Thomas the Tank Engine, said that creators were developing new female characters to bring to the show.

The problem if there really is one, is that overall, women have other interests generally.  Sure, there may be lots and lots of women who enjoy fishing and hunting.  But overall, it seems more males gravitate to those activities. So the numbers will be smaller among the female population.  But has anyone had their rights abused or ignored because maybe, and I don’t even know, there’s some kind of conspiracy among men to deny even more women the joys of fly and tackle and gun?  Is there a conspiracy of some kind to keep train drivers a club for men only?

Oh … btw.  Did you pay any particular attention to her line in which she says,

“but insisted that more had to be done.” Sure thing.  They (libtard left) always “insist” that more of their left wing all is equal agenda be met and always on their terms.  And just about every time, smarter people cave in to them.  Cos if not, then they are fascists, bigots, racists and misogynists and more.  Simply add an ism and it becomes an anti social and fascist thing or person.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
