We all know that Greece is responsible for its own problems – the country is utterly corrupt; anyone with any money doesn’t pay any tax; the billions handed over in EU aid for building roads and other infrastructure have mostly been stolen; much of the money given under the Common Agricultural Policy is for olive trees and other crops that don’t exist; the billions in war reparations paid by the Germans have also all been stolen and so on.
On that basis, you could conclude that the Greeks should knuckle down, do some work, pay some taxes and pay off their debts. But their economy has shrunk by a quarter since 2008 and their debt at 175% of GDP is unsustainable. Something needs to give. In life, we are often where we are and not where we would like to be. We therefore have to decide our policies on reality. In the case of Greece this means some form of debt forgiveness and boost to their economy in return for serious efforts to stamp out corruption and collect some taxes. After all, Germany was responsible for over 30 million deaths in WWII, but the Allies realised that the only way forward was to allow Germany a new start, free of unsustainable debt.
There is no other solution for Greece. But the EU elites cannot allow this to happen because:
1. The PIIGS – if the other members of the PIIGS (Portugal, Italy, Ireland and Spain) saw the Greeks getting concessions while they are forced to endure austerity and repay their debts, their people would revolt against their governments for not getting similar concessions. Moreover, if the Greeks got concessions and managed to successfully grow their economy within the Eurozone, voters in the other PIIGS would also demand an end to austerity and policies to boost their economies.
Furthermore, as in Greece, most of the other PIIGS are also facing popular revolts against the EU – there’s Podemos in Spain, and Beppo Grillo’s party in Italy. If Greece’s Syriza succeeds in facing down its EU rulers, that would give a massive boost to anti-austerity, anti-EU parties in other countries. For their governments to survive, Greece cannot be allowed to succeed.
2. Germany and its cowardly cronies – if Germany and its sycophants (Holland, Finland, Denmark) allowed the Greeks to default on their debts, they’d have to explain to their taxpayers why hundreds of billions of Euros of their money have been flushed down the pan. Moreover, if Greece successfully grew its economy as part of a debt-forgiveness, economic-boost policy, then their people would start asking why they too have been subject to austerity rather than growth-based policies. The political establishment would be utterly discredited.
So, the Greek revolt against the EU elites must be crushed.
But the absolute worst scenario for the EU elites would be for Greece to renege on its debts, leave the Eurozone and succeed in growing its economy outside the Eurozone. If that happened, other PIIGS countries would also demand their freedom threatening the whole dream of a single European superstate controlled by Germany and administered by a corrupt hereditary bureaucratic elite based in Brussels.
The solution to Greece’s problems is quite simple. But it cannot be allowed to happen because it would call into question the whole EUSSR project.
Sorry Greeks, but you must be brought to heel otherwise others will also start to think about rebelling against the EU elites too. And they can’t allow that to happen.
While the EU still battles with such issues as saving the world from the fiction of man-made global warming and whether British prisoners should be allowed to vote and while Dave relaxes after the struggle to impose things like gay marriage, more windfarms, the HS2 train and the Royal Mail sell-off on us, there are some pretty biggish sort of things going on in the world:
– Western influence declining – the West’s share of world GDP is now less than 50% and dropping fast. In 1945 the US was the largest creditor and accounted for 60% of world GDP… now probably the US is $20 trillion in debt and perhaps 25% of world GDP
– The Arab Spring has turned into an *sl*mist Winter with ISIL and its associates wreaking havoc across the Middle East and Africa
– The *sl*mists are also bringing attacks to Europe. In the UK they have mostly been stopped by excellent intelligence work, but ultimately they will succeed in carrying out a few atrocities
– The immigration invasion – the tsunami of Third-World immigrants into Europe means that native Europeans will be in the minority and M*sl*ms will be the majority in most major European cities by 2050 if not earlier
– Ukraine – the EU has sparked a totally unnecessary confrontation with Russia by trying to grab the Ukraine so that NATO can plant its tanks on Russia’s borders
– Fighting the wrong enemy – in fact, our useless leaders are desperately trying to fuel the conflict with Russia to make themselves look ‘heroic’ when we should be welcoming Russia into NATO as part of an alliance against the *sl*mist takeover of the West
– World security – there is no effective UN security council and there won’t be while the completely unnecessary and futile confrontation with Russia continues
– The West is floundering unsure of where to intervene to prevent the spread of war – Syria? Mali? Cameroon? Libya? Yemen? Ukraine? – while they try to save money and reduce their budgets
– Southern Europe – most of Southern Europe is effectively bankrupt. Debt levels in the Mediterranean PIGS are increasing by the day and can never be paid back
– Austerity – German-imposed austerity is pushing the Med-PIGS even further into debt and leading to the rise of extremism
– Youth unemployment – around a half of all 18- to 25-year-olds in the Med-PIGS unemployed and never likely to get a proper job in their lives. We have an almost unimaginable social and political crisis heading our way
– China’s rise – China is flexing its muscles and would dearly like to give a few of its neighbours (particularly Japan) a bloody nose as it tries to claim oil and mineral resources in disputed territories
At a time like this, you need great leaders to avoid catastrophe. Here’s a nice picture of one great leader looking totally pissed off at having to talk with two total clueless idiots:
And one of these two arrogant, self-regarding buffoons, neither of whom have ever had a proper job in their lives, will be the UK’s next leader:
Churchill, Thatcher, Roosevelt, De Gaulle, Adenauer – how we miss you and need you.
Remember how we all laughed in 1979 when Monty Python brought out their brilliant film LIFE OF BRIAN (click to see more clearly)
And how we enjoyed one of the most famous songs ever to be written in English:
Of course, a few excessively zealous Christians were angered by the film and some financial backers pulled out. Fortunately for us, former Beatle George Harrison stepped in with the necessary money and the film was made and distributed. But there were no threats against the makers; none of the actors was killed; there were no attacks on cinemas showing the film and there were no mass protests across the UK from hundreds of thousands of screaming, hate-filled, mouth-frothing protesters against this ‘insult to their religion’ and the film’s ‘blasphemy’.
Now spool forward to today. Imagine (and I know it’s hard to do) someone wanting to make a film called perhaps LIFE OF ALI about some hapless fool (like Bwian) being mistaken for the Prophet Mo………….
For a start, nobody would be foolish enough to even think of making such a film; no actors would risk their lives appearing in it and no cinemas would dare show it for fear of being attacked and burnt to the ground:
Moreover, were such a film to be made, rather than supporting freedom of speech, our spineless politicians would all be lining up to condemn the film as being ‘provocative’ and ‘causing social tension’.
One of our British values is/was our sense of humour and our ability to poke fun at even the mightiest and most self-righteous groups in our society. *sl*mo-Dave Cameron claims “*sl*m’s values are British values”. The fact that the film LIFE OF ALI can never be made suggests that Dave is a blatant and recidivist liar.
It’s sad to see how much Britain has changed and how we have all been diminished by the *sl*mification of our once great country forced on us by our cowardly rulers.
Here’s a link. Clearly it’s NOT a link to a cartoon as cartoons are now dangerous. And clearly the cartoon is NOT about Mo….(you know who) as that would get me killed:
And here’s a reader’s comment I read on the Daily Torygraph website:
The big issue for the UK is the increasing 5th-column of *sl*m-dependent immigrants.
Nothing else is as important to our country’s future.
*sl*m advocates and promotes: autocracy: theocracy; servile females; oppression of infidels, gays and apostates; polygamy; first-cousin marriage; FGM; sexual exploitation of non-M*sl*m girls; and marginalization of individual freedom – many of these are explicitly illegal under British law dontcha-know?
For the avoidance of doubt, *sl*m is utterly toxic to a modern democracy – it is a medieval comfort zone for those with limited intellects. It is also anti-science, anti-development, backward-looking and worships death, not life.
I find *sl*m and M*sl*ms in general, utterly abhorrent to my (British) values and hard-fought and died for British morals of liberty, equality and free expression. As such I regard *sl*m/M*sl*ms as an enemy to me and my country.
It’s refreshing to see someone express what millions of us feel but are afraid to say for fear of being branded “waaaacccciiiiisssssttttt!”
As for publishing the cartoon to which I provide a link above – would I dare? Nope! I’m not that stupid!
So much for ‘free speech’ in Britain today.
And finally, here’s another link. It’s to a story that has appeared in several papers about a 19-year-old ‘British’ M*sl*m caught by police with a hammer, knife and Jihadist flag while on his way to find a soldier at an army recruiting office and behead him (or her)
Reading the garbage uttered by this vile piece of human excrement shows the extent to which we have allowed the M*sl*m fifth column to grow in our country. The police should have followed him and shot him like a mad dog. Instead we will now be paying over £40,000 a year to keep him in a comfortable prison with three hot (halal) meals a day, colour TV, video games and plenty of time to pray to his primitive god and to radicalise others to kill us on their release.
I wonder if you’ve noticed how the mainstream media has suddenly gone very quiet indeed on UKIP?
For the last few years, the strategy of the mainstream media towards UKIP has been clear. In the run-up to the European elections last year there was a concerted effort between, on the Right by the Times, Telegraph and Daily Mail and on the Left by the Guardain, BBC and the Independent to run as many smear stories on UKIP as they could dig up. This averaged about two a day on the Guradian and at least one a day in the other papers.
In the Griniad, Times and Independent, these articles were always followed with 100s of comments of ‘racists, little Englanders…blah blah‘. However, readers of the Telegraph and Daily Mail were generally more than supportive of UKIP and angered by the constant smearing.
Most of the material for these smear stories was supplied by a group working for the Tories who trawled through every blog and tweet and other utterance of anyone remotely connected with UKIP to find ‘evidence’ that could be used to accuse UKIP of racism and fruitcakery. The mainstream media found fertile material amongst several obscure UKIP councillors but never mentioned that almost all of them had served for years as Labour or Tories. When they were Labour or Tories, we never read anything about their sometimes ‘colourful’ views.
This ‘smear, smear, smear’ strategy was presumably orchestrated by David Cameron’s Australian attack-dog election organiser – Lynton Crosby.
Anyway, it didn’t work. The more the mainstream media attacked UKIP, the more people decided to vote for them and UKIP won the elections to the European Parliament. Ooooppppss!
Yet since Christmas, as the 2015 General Election campaign has started in earnest, there has been a complete change of tactics by LibLabCon and their sycophantic supporters in the media. Again this has probably been decided by Lynton Crosby. Now the strategy of the mainstream media is to deliberately under-report UKIP, almost pretending UKIP doesn’t exist. So there have been no more “Farage bit my baby” and “Bloke down the pub said he is going to vote UKIP ate my hamster” stories. The idea now is to suggest that UKIP are a minor party of no importance and that support for UKIP is falling so it’s not worth reporting anything UKIP say or do.
Cameron (Lynton Crosby) is using the same strategy for the pre-election TV debates. He has realised that it was a disaster in 2010 to allow Clegg and the LibDems equal footing with the Tories and Labour and that it would be even worse to allow Farage and UKIP equal status with LibLabCon. So Cameron/Crosby is trying to split the debates into those that will just feature him and Miliband – our potential new leaders – and those that will also include the ‘minor parties’ – UKIP, SNP, Greens, DUP etc. Cameron/Crosby knows that in any debate the Greens and SNP will spout unintelligible rubbish and the Tories will then use this to suggest that UKIP is just as much a ‘mad fringe party’ as the Greens and others.
But UKIP are still there and are gaining support. It’s just that the LibLabCon-supporting mainstream media have deliberately chosen to ignore Farage and UKIP as part of their new strategy to ensure LibLabCon retain their lucrative, self-serving grip on power and privilege.
As most people know, Greece is bankrupt. Its debts are now around 175% of GDP and can never be repaid, especially as GDP has collapsed by a quarter since the start of the 2008 recession. One in every four Greeks is now unemployed and half of all young (18-24 years old) Greeks are unemployed. Unless something changes, we have a massive human tragedy whereby hundreds of thousands of young Greeks will never get a proper job in their lives.
The new Greek Syriza government is asking for some kind of debt rescheduling and write-down so that it can try to kick-start economic growth and has suggested that Greek repayments be linked to economic growth. But Germany has flatly rejected any further concessions to Greece (which, of course, give yet another clear insight as to who really runs the EU as the opinions of all the other countries in the Eurozone seem to be irrelevant).
But by insisting that Greek debts be repaid – even though this is quite impossible – arrogant Germany seems to have forgotten recent history, when Germany’s debts were cut by around 62% and repayments were linked to economic growth – exactly the kind of deal Greece is asking for.
After WWII, the allies realised how damaging the reparations imposed on Germany at the Treaty of Versailles following WWI had been and so as part of the London Agreement of 1953 organised the debt forgiveness to give Germany the opportunity to rebuild its economy in the hope that it would never again start another European war.
“More than 50 percent of Greek debt needs to be written off,” said a top Syriza economist. “The solution that was given to Germany at the London conference in 1953 is what we must do for Greece.” (click to see more clearly)
Much of the German debt that was written off consisted of loans taken to fund the Germans’ murder of about 30 million people in their WWII attempt at world domination. But now the Germans have decided that every country should live within its means and no country should be given the chance to escape from past mistakes in order to start to rebuild their economies. As they pile the economic pressure on tiny Greece, the Germans seem to have totally forgotten how they were bailed out just 62 years ago.
Behind all the current shenanigans is a possibly interesting moral question: If a bunch of thieves (mainly German and French banks) lend money to a bunch of profligate fools (the Greeks who were actually already bankrupt when they fiddled their figures to be accepted into the Eurozone) in the full knowledge that the fools would never repay the money and then the thieves could force politicians to use taxpayers’ money to reimburse them for the worthless loans they had made, who is most in the wrong and should foot the bill? The thieves who originally made the loans to the bankrupt fools? Or the bankrupt fools who spent all the money they could never repay?
That’s the question the self-righteous Merkel and the somewhat forgetful Germans seem unwilling to face.
But, as usual, those who get screwed will be ordinary EU taxpayers who never had a clue what their rulers were up to in their desperation to force the Euro onto the continent in order to create their dream of a single, borderless European superstate ruled by a corrupt, undemocratic, wasteful, self-serving, hereditary bureaucratic elite.
Just in case you missed it, the wonderful *sl*mic State has shown its progressive attitudes and civilised beliefs by publishing a list of the main crimes people might be tempted to commit and the punishments criminals should expect
For those people who don’t read Arabic, here ere are just a few of my favourites:
1) Blasphemy against *ll*h – death
2) Blasphemy against the Prophet M*h*med – death, even if the accuser repents
3) Blasphemy against *sl*m – death
4) Adultery – stoning until death if the adulterer is married and 100 lashes and exile if he or she is unmarried
5) Sodomy – death for the person committing the act, as well as for the one receiving it.
6) Spying for the unbelievers – death
7) Apostasy – death
8) Banditry with murder and stealing – crucifixion and death
9) Banditry with murder only – death
10) Theft – amputation of the hand
11) Drinking alcohol – 80 lashes
12) Slandering – 80 lashes
13) Stealing as part of banditry – amputation of right hand and left leg
14) Terrorising people – exile
But that’s not all:
– ISIS militants killed three of at least 15 pigeon breeders in Iraq after deciding it is against the *sl*mic religion to keep birds. So watch out all you pigeon fanciers!
– The extremists also executed 13 teenage boys for watching the Asian Cup football match between Iraq and Jordan last week. Football fans take note. If ISIS manage to establish their caliphate across Europe, I doubt many people will be buying subscriptions to Uncle Rupert Murdoch’s Sky Sports.
This may all look somewhat medieval. But of course it can’t be as *sl*m is a progressive, tolerant religion and, as Dave Cameron keeps insisting, “*sl*m’s values are British values”.
Still, look on the bright side – I expect the crime rate in the *sl*mic State is considerably lower than in the infidel UK. So we can definitely look forward to a major fall in criminality once we allow the M*sl*ms to take over our once great country.
(I’ve often been negative about the Land of Smells, so here’s something more positive, I hope)
In the UK – There are about 11 million people over 65 in Britain, including 5 million over 75 including 3 million over 80. Around half of the over 75s live alone – 1,800,000 women and 700,000 men.
Let’s just look at the 700,000 men over 75 who live alone. What do they have to look forward to? Increasingly frailty, probable dementia and even greater loneliness as their friends become immobile or die. And at the end of it, a couple of years playing dominoes in a care home with a once-weekly musical ‘entertainment’ where they can clap along if they manage to stay awake after their institutional lunch. Whooooppppeee! Sounds like fun.
In the Land of Smells – Now let’s move to the Land of Smells. A typical worker in the ‘adult entertainment’ industry will be a girl who probably got pregnant from some local layabout in her village when she was sixteen or seventeen. Then, not learning very fast, she probably got pregnant again with another Th*i-whiskey-drinking layabout a couple of years later. So, there she is, with one or two kids and no means to support them in the crappy little rice-growing village.
The only solution is to travel to one of the major cities, leaving her children to be brought up by her parents, in order to find a job. If she’s lucky she might get something in a factory or on a building site earning say 4,000 or so baht (£80) a month. That’s just about enough to live off, but hardly enough to have much left over to send her parents for bringing up her kid(s). Then, talking to the other girls, she’ll hear that if she worked in ‘adult entertainment’ she could be earning 40,000 to 50,000 baht (£800 to £1,000) a month taxfree – a fortune in a country where a doctor or lawyer is probably only on 25,000 baht (£500) a month and where a decent house will only cost about £20,000.
Hopefully during her years in a gogo bar the girl will then save some of her earnings. But many just fritter the money away on clothes, jewelry and their Th*i boyfriends. Sex workers are much prized by young Th*i men as they earn a lot of money allowing the man to spend his life sleeping or drinking Th*i whiskey, taking drugs and gambling. But when the girl is in her thirties, she has a big problem. Her time in ‘adult entertainment’ is coming to an end, she can’t get any other job, no Th*i man will go near her and she has one or two kids to put through high school and university so they have a better life than she did.
There’s only one solution – get a farang (Western) husband. Ideally, the woman would want a farang in his forties or early fifties. But most of them will be married and not many of the unmarried ones will be overly keen to get together with someone who already has a couple of teenage children. The second best solution is to find a farang in his sixties or early seventies and enter an arrangement whereby he supports her, pays for her children’s education and ensures she has a pension after he dies, while she looks after him, considerably brightening up his final years on this planet.
Given a choice between 10 to 15 years living alone then a couple more years in a care home or staying in their own home with the company of a very caring Th*i woman, I know which one I’d choose for my grandad if I had one.
But, if grandad decides to go down this route, he must ‘choose wisely’. If he chooses wisely, he will have some very happy final decades. If he chooses poorly, he may find himself joining the Th*i Flying Club – being thrown off the balcony of a high building so his new wife’s family can get his money. Such deaths are always classed as ‘suicide’ by the local police after the woman has made a suitable contribution into the police pension fund.
So, grandad, choose wisely. Great joy awaits he who chooses wisely, great sorrow he who chooses poorly:
Greenpeace has certainly achieved a great deal in mobilising people to protect our environment. But there have also been accusations that Greenpeace’s current bosses are ‘watermelons’ – green on the outside, red on the inside – and that behind their environmental campaigning is a hatred of capitalism and big business
Amongst Greenpeace’s many ‘successes’ are two in particular which have been catastrophic and continue to be catastrophic for the poor – their attacks on oil companies by promoting the use of biofuels and their opposition to GM (genetically-modified) crops:
1. Biofuels – Greenpeace were one of the prime movers in convincing EU leaders to adopt a policy demanding that 10% of all vehicle fuel must consist of biofuels. One 2002 report on the EU’s biofuels proposal presciently concluded: ‘The proposal does not make much sense, neither from an economic, an energy, nor an ecological point of view.’ However, anxious to demonstrate what it called ‘Europe’s global leadership in tackling climate change’, as part of its 20/20/20 environmental goals in 2007 the EU Commission imposed a mandatory target of 10 per cent of biofuels in transport fuel by 2020.
The Greenpeace/EU’s love affair with biofuels since 2002 seems to have had at least three worrying effects: a massive increase in biofuel production, leading to a diversion of land and crops from food production and extensive deforestation in countries like Indonesia and Malaysia; a burst of speculation in food on commodity exchanges as poor harvests and increased demand due to US and EU biofuels targets led to huge profits for speculators; and an explosion in food prices, which increased by 12 per cent in 2006, 24 per cent in 2007 and over 50 per cent in 2008. There were food riots in several countries and some people believe it was rising food prices which sparked off the Arab Spring which has now turned into the *sl*mic Winter.
The UN Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) estimated that an extra 75 million people worldwide have been pushed into hunger and poverty due to the rapid rise in the cost of food (click to see more clearly)
Naturally, the EU has denied that its biofuels policy had any significant effect on food prices. The agriculture commissioner explained: ‘As regards the 10 per cent target by 2020, the Commission impact assessment of the EU biofuel policy shows that its achievement should not cause major strain in the food sector’.
This sanguine view of the well-fed Brussels bureaucrats was not shared by many experts outside the Brussels bubble. Two international bodies calculated that biofuels were responsible for up to 60 per cent of food price rises, while the World Bank estimated that up to 75 per cent of the increase in food prices was due to biofuels. The UN FAO cautioned: ‘Policy measures driving the rush to liquid biofuels, such as mandated mixing of biofuels with fossil fuels … have high economic, social and environmental costs and should be reviewed’. A policy adviser at Oxfam said: ‘Political leaders seem intent on suppressing and ignoring the strong evidence that biofuels are a major factor in recent food price rises.’The UN’s special rapporteur on the right to food was more direct when he commented that biofuels could only bring ‘more hunger to the poor people of the world’ and that they were a ‘crime against humanity’.
2. GM crops – just in the last few weeks, Greenpeace’s watermelons have chalked up a supposed ‘victory’ against the large agricultural companies who have been pushing the introduction of GM crops. After coming under intense pressure from Greenpeace and other lobby groups, the President of the EU Commission the tax avoidance specialist Jean Claude Juncker, axed the post of chief scientific adviser because of that person’s views on GM crops being safe
“The current chief scientific adviser presented one-sided, partial opinions on the use of genetically modified organisms in agriculture, repeatedly claiming that there was a scientific consensus about their safety,” said a letter in July signed by Greenpeace and other green groups. “We hope that you as the incoming commission president will decide not to nominate a chief scientific adviser.”
We in the West may have enough to eat. But in many Third World countries new drought- and disease-resistant strains of rice, corn and wheat are desperately needed. Moreover, because of their resistance to many pests, some GM crops actually use less fertilizer and so are more environmentally-friendly than more traditional strains. And anyway, humans have been modifying crops to improve yields for tens of thousands of years. But, ever anxious to protect us against the ‘evil’ agricultural companies, Greenpeace’s watermelons have dealt another devastating blow to the world’s poor.
I wonder how the Greenpeace watermelon lobbyists in Brussels will celebrate their latest ‘victory’? Perhaps with a slap-up meal at one of Brussels’ best restaurants?
A new book about our possible future monarch – Charles the Prince of homeopathy and other assorted idiocies – has got the chattering classes chattering. The book is called Charles: Heart of a king and the subject of the wittering – is Charles really fit to become king?
I personally believe that if Charles hadn’t been such a self-absorbed, greedy, lazy, arrogant, brainless waste of skin, the Queen would have handed over to him years ago.
Anyway, as the debate about Charles becoming our king hots up, I’ve noticed a few possibly surprising similarities between our useless, whining, self-absorbed, self-serving Prince Charles and his not so great great uncle Edward VIII (Edward the Abdicator).
1. Edward VIII, like Charles, was emotionally-retarded, immature and self-centered. Edward’s private secretary for eight years believed that “for some hereditary or physiological reason his normal mental development stopped dead when he reached adolescence”
2. Both became Prince of Wales. Edward was officially invested as Prince of Wales in a special ceremony at Caernarvon Castle on 13 July 1911. A rather fanciful ceremony in the style of a Welsh pageant was invented for Edward and he was coached to speak a few words in Welsh. Just like Prince Charles’ overblown and utterly pointless investiture:
3. Edward could have had the pick of any number of young, attractive, eligible girls. Instead he preferred the older, charmless remarried divorcee Wallis Simpson. Useless Charles did, in fact, marry a beautiful, eligible young girl, Princess Diana, though the book claims he tried to get out of the marriage before it took place. But Charles always preferred the older and (IMHO) charmless Camilla and soon left Diana for his beloved Camilla
4. Wallis Simpson was described by someone who knew her as “austere”, “lantern-jawed” and “with a face like an old boot”. By the way, this is Camilla:
5. It was rumoured that Edward was sexually inadequate, felt threatened by younger, beautiful women and the only way he could get sexual satisfaction was because Wallis Simpson had “learnt a few tricks when in China”. For decency’s sake, let us not speculate here on Charles’ sex life with Diana and then Camilla. Though it is significant that after her divorce, Diana preferred the company of rather manly men (one of whom had the nickname “horse” for reasons I hope I don’t have to mention here) – men very unlike whining drip Charles
6. Edward was described as being “completely obsessed” by Wallis Simpson. Charles became a national laughing stock with his “I want to be your tampon” phone call to Camilla
7. Wallis Simpson ended up spending the rest of her life “living with a man she privately ridiculed for being immature, boring, self-absorbed and intellectually her inferior”. Camilla and Charles? Maybe. One can imagine Camilla ridiculing the hopeless Charles to her friends. Though it’s said that Camilla is no genius either
7. Edward caused unease in government circles with actions that were interpreted as interference in political matters. Government ministers were reluctant to send confidential documents and state papers to Edward because there was a lack of confidence in his discretion in constitutional and political matters. A bit like the congenital meddler Charles with his often idiotic views on anything that enters his empty head and almost endless stream of letters to government ministers
8. Both men were emotionally and intellectually unsuited to become the kind of king anyone could have any respect for. But the main difference between these two men seems to be that Edward didn’t want to become king and probably used his relationship with Wallis Simpson as a way of getting out of any royal commitments, so he could live a life of idle luxury at taxpayers’ expense without actually doing any work. Charles, on the other hand, is desperate to become king even though this would be a disaster for the royal family and would probably lead to Australia and Canada becoming republics. After all, who could handle a banknote with Charles’s idiotic face and jug ears on it without bursting into laughter?
Personally, I believe that if Charles ever thought about anyone other than himself, he would step aside and the monarchy could skip a generation letting the much more acceptable William and Kate take over. But sadly Charles is probably incapable of seeing his own glaring deficiencies and will irredeemably damage the monarchy through his own selfish personal ambition.
Is this really the future for our once great country? Charles as king and Ed Miliband as PM? Gawd help us!!!!!!
