By  David Craig, on August 15th, 2016 In today’s increasingly politically-correct world, some people may be confused about what they should be approving and what should send them into paroxysms of social-media-inspired fury and outrage.
After all, the slightest deviation from the new religion of political correctness can lead to a Twitterstorm that can destroy your reputation, career and even life.
So, as part of our duty to educate and inform our dwindling number of readers, snouts-in-the-trough will bring an occasional series explaining how to be so politically correct that your friends will gasp in amazement at how progressive and liberal you are. And, the more politically correct you are, the more successful you will be – especially if you work for the BBC or Channel 4.
So, here’s our first guide to political correctness:
By David Craig, on August 13th, 2016 I wanted to write about Mark ‘Goldman Sachs’ Carney’s desperate attempts to punish us for voting for Brexit by driving the UK economy into recession.
But a reader spotted this – the Palestinians, supposedly being blockaded and starved by those ‘nasty’ Israelis, are among some of the fattest people in the world:
Palestinian men are the 8th most obese in the world and Palestinian women come in at a glorious number 3.
Perhaps the Israelis should make the Palestinians run around a bit more? It would good for their health
And for your viewing pleasure, here is a demonstration of what they have learnt put on by Palestinian kindergarten children at an end-of-year show. Given this level of indoctrination, I suspect peace in the Middle East is quite far away.

By David Craig, on August 12th, 2016 The lefties and progressives sometimes get carried away in their hatred of successful, democratic, multi-religious Israel and accuse the Israelis of ‘genocide’ against the Palestinians.
So, let’s just check a couple of things. When our Turkish friends murdered one and a half million Christian Armenians a century ago, the population of Armenians fell dramatically and that was genocide.
When our German friends murdered six million Jews and gypsies around 70 years ago, the population of Jews and gypsies fell dramatically and that was genocide
Now let’s look at how the population of Palestinians is ‘falling’ due to the supposed Israeli genocide. Ooops, the number of Palestinians seems to be increasing rapidly on both the West Bank and the Gaza Strip:
And the population of the Gaza Strip is set to continue shooting up in spite of the supposed ‘Israeli genocide’:
The population of the small Strip, whose area is 365 square kilometers [141 square miles], passed 1.865 million in March 2016, or 5,109 people per square kilometer. Thus, the Gaza Strip is on the list of the most densely populated areas in the world.
A UN report published in 2012 said that by 2020 Gaza’s population will reach 2.1 million, and pointed out that basic infrastructure such as electricity, water, sanitation and social services cannot keep up with the needs of the growing population. The Gaza Strip needs much more electricity, hundreds of new schools and hospitals and thousands of housing units by the year 2020.
The fertility rate in the Gaza Strip has long been around 5.7 children per woman. Moreover, given that many men have three or four wives, families with 15 to 20 children are not uncommon.
According to experts, the absence of population policies in the Gaza Strip and the lack of strategic plans to cope with its growth has turned Gaza’s population into a ticking time bomb.
So much for the supposed ‘Israeli genocide’.
As for Israel itself, while the Israelis should fear Palestinian rockets and bombs, it’s the demographic bomb that will ultimately lead to the destruction of Israel:
One day a massive tidal wave of armed Arabs will sweep across Israel raping and murdering and transform a once advanced, prosperous, democratic country into a typical stinking, backwards, violent, barren, poverty-stricken Middle East cesspit.
Still, that’s what the lefties and Corbynites want.
By David Craig, on August 11th, 2016 You’ve probably seen a story yesterday about how the Russian military outguns the British. Russia, with a population of 143 million, has the fourth largest defence budget in the world spending about $65.6bn a year. Britain, with a population of somewhere between 65 million and 70 million, comes in at number five with $56.2bn spent on defence. So, Russia is spending about 17% more than Britain.
Of course, costs are a lot lower in Russia – Russia’s GDP per capita at $14,000 is only around a third of Britain’s at $42,000. But even if you assume that Russian costs – salaries and materiel – are just a third or even a quarter of Britain’s, Russia still seems to be getting an awful lot more bang, bang, bang for its rouble than Britain’s useless military elites:
Russia has five times as many troops. But that’s understandable as it has a largely conscript army who don’t really get paid. But Russia has over 8 times as many fighter aircraft as the UK; 38 times as many tanks; 33 times as many pieces of towed artillery; 67 times as many self-propelled guns (SPGs) and 90 times as many multiple-launch rocket systems (MLRS).
I also recognise that much of the Russian equipment may be maintained at the usual Russian standard and so doesn’t and never will work properly. But even so, Britain spends just a little less than Russia but is massively and overwhelmingly outgunned.
How is this possible?
I’ve written extensively in several of my books about the mind-boggling uselessness of the Ministry of Defence’s procurement operation. Here are just a few examples:
- Acute class submarine – budget £2.578bn: actual cost £3.806bn and rising
- Type 45 destroyer – budget £5.575bn: actual cost £6.464bn and rising as the engines don’t work properly and are repeatedly breaking down
- The SA80 rilfe which costs more than three times its US equivalent (M16) and doesn’t work as well
- Nimrod plane – scrapped after £3.602bn spent
- MoD headquarters in London – £2.347bn over 30 years on comfort for bureaucrats
- Spending on management consultants £2.3bn
And while administration costs in our military rise every year, the amount of kit we have seems to fall. Under New Labour, the number of tanks we had fell by 32%; the number of aircraft by 41% and the number of ships by 42%.
Then there are the huge and ever-increasing salaries and expenses of our military bosses. But that’s a story for another day.
Like all parts of the British public sector, the MoD succeeds in giving us less for our tax money every year while paying its elites ever more.
By David Craig, on August 10th, 2016 I guess there are two kinds of Swiss – the ones who have been living there for generations and the new arrivals from some of the world’s more ‘exotic’ countries.
Anyway, as the number of immigrants into Switzerland has increased so have the number of forced under-age marriages.
In Switzerland, the number of forced under-age marriages has jumped since 2015 to five times the number reported in the last decade. In the last year 119 cases were reported. That’s a little over one every three days, and nearly 22% involved girls under 16. The minimum age of marriage is 18 in Switzerland. Most of the girls involved in under-age marriages are from Iraq, Syria, Eritrea, Afghanistan and Somalia.
In addition to similar forced, under-age marriages also rapidly increasing in the UK, another troubling pattern was reported last year: a rise in so-called ‘Sharia Marriages’ of which two-thirds were polygamous.
There are reportedly 100,000 such marriages that are unrecognized under UK laws, and the women in them have no rights. But we don’t hear leftist, progressive feminists and bleeding-heart liberals crying foul about this; our politicians (desperate for the immigrant vote) seldom mention this problem; nor are human rights groups intervening to put a stop to outrageously abusive practices like under-age marriages and polygamy:
Sharia marriages are apparently very easy to pull off. A lawyer specializing in Sharia law noted: “people can have a secret Nikah (Islamic ‘marriage’ ceremony) and no one will know about it”.
So, if you see a bunch of young girls in a new neighbour’s house, they might be his daughters. Or they might be his wives. Who knows?
Don’t you just love Britain’s multi-cultural diversity?
By David Craig, on August 9th, 2016 Anyone who thinks there is a difference between how M*sl*m children are brought up and how other children are brought up, just needs to watch this short (54 seconds), wonderful, heart-warming, life-enhancing video.
It shows a little Arab girl playing with one of her dolls while singing a popular children’s song.
Awwww – isn’t she just so cute? Isn’t she adorable?

And our rulers tell us we are suffering from a phobia if we’re afraid of the Religion of Intolerance, Hatred, Violence and Death!!!
By David Craig, on August 8th, 2016 I realise my readers are very busy people and may not have time to read long stories. So, today here’s a very quick quiz:
Can you spot the difference between these two photos?
The first one is from a time – the 1960s – when there were very few followers of the Religion of Peace living in Britain:
The second one is from today when there are 4 to 5 million followers of the Religion of Peace (most of whom live off benefits and most of whom loathe us and want to kill us) culturally enriching life in Britain:
But can you spot the difference?
And would you say that this change in our policing – from old-fashioned, unarmed bobbies to tooled-up robocops -shows that the followers of the Religion of Peace have had a beneficial effect on our country by increasing diversity?
By David Craig, on August 6th, 2016 (weekend blog) As the Rio Olympics (yawn – WGAT?) kick off, our UK media will feed us a constant stream of stories patronisingly comparing the supposedly ‘massive success’ of the London 2012 Olympics to all the problems that we’re likely to see in Rio – protests, robberies, gang gun fights, drug abuse, athletes caught with prostitutes, filthy water in swimming pools and at sailing events, zika, empty seats, schoolchildren being bussed in to fill stadiums, disorganisation etc etc.
So, please don’t forget how we were lied to by our rulers over the London 2102 Games:
1. The cost
While our papers and politically-correct BBC gushed about the “triumph” of the 2012 London Games, the rest of the world was laughing at us. As governments around the world were forced to cut spending following the 2008 financial crash, Britain was lumbered with the massive waste of money of the Olympic Games. These Games were due to cost ‘only’ £4bn with us taxpayers being squeezed for “a mere” £1.8bn:
But the whole thing was such a disaster from the very beginning that the American, originally put in charge of the construction of the Olympic sites, resigned after only seven months of his four-year contract stating that he did not want to stay in the job as it would “ruin his reputation for being able to deliver projects on time and on budget”.
Then under the “management” (ha-ha-ha!) of Sebastian Coe and his well-paid careerist cronies (many of whom earned more than the PM), the London Games ended up costing over £9.3bn with us taxpayers coughing up over £7bn directly and another £2.175bn from the National Lottery:
That £9.3bn would have paid for an awful lot of the nurses, teachers, doctors, military, border guards and policemen who were sacked to save money as part of George Osborne’s supposed ‘Austerity’. But instead this ginormous amount of our money was wasted on a couple of weeks of drug-enhanced supposed “sport” – enriching all those who could get their hands on our money and enhancing their lousy, self-serving careers
2. The ‘legacy’
The London 2012 Olympics were supposed to leave a much vaunted ‘legacy’ of many more people taking up sports thus helping tackle Britain’s ‘obesity epidemic’. In fact, so much money was siphoned off from local sports and sports facilities and from National Lottery money (£2.175bn) to help pay for the London Olympics farce of Brobdingnanian proportions, that participation in sport in Britain has actually fallen since London 2012 and more Brits than ever are obese.
Conclusion
Yes, there will be problems in Rio. And, like London, the Rio Games will be a gargantuan, over-budget waste of money vastly enriching the already rich:
But we should not compare the Rio Olympics to London. There is a big difference between staging Olympic Games in a slightly corrupt, rich, developed country like Britain where a family with nobody working can claim up to £20,000 in benefits a year and staging them in a totally corrupt, Third-World dump like Brazil where about 32 million people have to survive on less than $3.10 a day (£870 a year).
And we should remember that the London Olympics ‘success’ was based on lies put out by those who had most to gain financially and in their careers.
By David Craig, on August 5th, 2016 As we find out that the Russell Square knifeman was a supposedly ‘Norwegian’ Somali, I thought it worth reminding readers of a blog I wrote about 3 years ago:
To avoid any accusations of waaacccciiissssmmm, all figures in today’s blog are taken either from the Office for National Statistics or from the Guardian – the bible of the bien pensants, professional handwringers and overpaid child molesters at the BBC.
There are an estimated 250,000 Somalis living in the UK. But the real figure may be much higher as many thousands of Somalis with Dutch residence permits and passports are believed to have moved to the UK because of the higher benefits paid here compared to Holland.
So-called ‘economic inactivity’ among Somali men is believed to be around 65%. As you’ll see from the diagram, this is many times higher than any other ethnic group. In fact it’s so far off the scale that I haven’t been able to include it:
And, if I remember correctly, over 90% of Somali women are also ‘economically inactive’ though very active when it comes to producing swarms of children.
If we just play with a few imaginary figures: let’s assume that the 250,000 Somali population includes 60,000 men of working age and that of these, 65% (39,000) are each claiming about £20,000 a year in benefits (unemployment, jobseekers’ allowance, housing benefits, child benefits, council tax benefits and so on) for themselves and their families. Then these 39,000 economically inactive Somali men are costing us around £780m a year. Then when you add in another £20,000 a year for healthcare, schooling their children, policing their criminal activities, social worker support and other public services, you can probably assume that Britain’s Somalis are costing us well over £1.6bn a year.
The problems with the Somali community are not just in the high levels of unemployment. In our schools just 33% of Somali students passed five GCSEs, compared with 59% for students from other African communities and 80% for Chinese students.
The handwringing, socially-responsible, politically-correct Guardian blames the British government for the problems with the Somali community claiming it is responsible for “the immense harm caused by this continuing social dislocation”and “the figures for educational attainment of Somali students are shameful for a government which prides itself on its commitment to equal opportunities” and “the government needs to recognise the Somali community is a resource to this country, not a problematic burden”.
But a cynic might wonder whether the problems caused by high economic inactivity and low educational achievement among Britain’s Somalis could possibly maybe perhaps have something to do with the cultural and religious attitudes of the Somalis themselves. After all, many other ethnic and religious groups – Chinese, Hindus, etc – have come to Britain and even thrived here.
So, to answer the question – what use are Britain’s Somalis? – I guess the answer is ‘not much use at all’!
(As for the Russell Square stabber, I hope you’ve all been using your “Blame Bollox Bingo” cards and have ticked off two excuses given by our rulers and media – ‘bullied at school’ and ‘psychological problems’. But, of course, the murderous spree was NTDWI)
By David Craig, on August 4th, 2016 The most recent and most reliable studies suggest that people are around 20 times more likely to get HIV Aids from ‘receptive anal sex’ (whether male or female) than from ‘receptive vaginal sex’.
Now there’s a new drug – pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) – which cuts the risk of HIV Aids infection by almost 90%. (Though using a condom incidentally cuts the risk of infection by almost 100%).
PrEP is a pill that must be taken daily to be effective and will cost almost £5,000 per botty-botherer per year. The total cost to the NHS could be anywhere between £20m and £50m a year, depending, of course, on how many tens of thousands of eager botty-botherers demand to be given this medicine as their ‘yuman right’.
And, of course, every £20m to £50m spent protecting those who practice ‘receptive anal sex’ without protection, because they can’t be bothered to get their partner (the ‘inserter’) to use a happy hat, means £20m to £50m less to be spent on those who, through no fault of their own, develop conditions like cataracts, cystic fibrosis or cancer.
But, of course, the botty-botherer lobbying groups couldn’t give a toss about other people being deprived of life-enhancing and life-saving treatments. Much more important to them is their ‘yuman right’ to shove their cocks into other people’s anuses without having to wear a johnny.
(I normally insert a picture at this point in my blog. And there are plenty of excellent pictures available on Google of people back-dooring to illustrate today’s subject. But I think I’ll spare you and just let readers use their own imagination)
So, if you (whether you are a man or woman) really want someone to put their penis into your bottom at regular intervals, you have a choice – get the ‘inserter’ to wear a condom or demand that you get PrEP even though this may result in people, who really do need medical care, being deprived so that you and your partner can bang enthusiastically away without sheathing up for action.
This is just another example of how the NHS is being exploited by the vain, the self-obsessed, the lazy and the dishonest:
- Not happy with your breasts? Are they causing you problems with your self esteem? No problem – demand a boob job free on the NHS
- Your nose too big/small/bent/etc? More problems with your self-esteem? No problem – demand a nose job free on the NHS
- Are you a fat slob who never does any exercise and who lacks the self control to limit the amount of junk food you stuff into your ugly, flabby face? No problem – demand bariatric surgery free on the NHS
- Don’t live in Britain? Never been to Britain? But need medical care? No problem – come to Benefits Britain and you’ll get all the medical care you want for you and your fifteen children free, FREE, FREE!
Maybe it’s time to stop this madness? The NHS is not there to improve the lifestyles of the self-obsessed, weak-willed, the selfish and the anally-obsessed nor to provide for every Mohammed, Ali or Fatima around the world.
As for botty-botherers – make them and their partners either use cock socks or pay for their own PrEP!
Why should the rest of us support for their narcissistic self-indulgence?
(Meanwhile there has been what the police call an “incident” in Central London. Amazingly, the BBC and the Guardian already ‘know’ that the perpetrator was suffering from a “mental illness”. So, conclude the BBC and the Guardian, it’s probably not a terrorist attack. It’s odd that the BBC and the Guardian seem to know why the perpetrator knifed a few people but don’t even know his name. Might I humbly suggest it begins with ‘M’ and ends with ‘d’? Anyway, it’s time to get out your ‘Blame Bollox Bingo’ cards to see what excuses our rulers give for this latest M*sl*m outrage – see my blog of 27 July for your ‘Blame Bollox Bingo’ bingo card https://www.snouts-in-the-trough.com/archives/16503 )
