Snouts in the Trough

I had a quite important and possibly shocking subject for my blog today. November 21st 2014 will probably be one of the most important days in British history. Yet I suspect not a single politician or journalist will even mention what will happen on 21st November this year as, if they did, that would cause a massive surge in support for UKIP.

But then I heard from my publisher that only about a laughably small 50 copies of my latest book DON’T BUY IT! have been sold.

This means that around 5% of the people who read this blog have been willing to show their support by buying a copy of the book.

This surprised me as I had thought I was doing a reasonably useful service by writing this blog to cover the kind of stories often ‘conveniently’ overlooked by the mainstream media. However, it appears I was wrong. If only 5% of readers believe my blog has any value and 95% think a year’s blogging is not worth even a few quid, then clearly I’ve been wasting my time.

So, although I quite enjoy blogging, as 95% of my readers consider my blog worthless, there’s hardly any point continuing.

I will probably start blogging again at some point in the future and will try to build up a new readership who hopefully will show a bit of support for the work I put into trying to find a new story every day.

There have been four major football disasters in Europe in the last 30 years – Heysel 1985 (fans fighting) 39 dead, Bradford 1985 (fire) 56 dead, Ibrox 1971 (fans crushed) 66 dead and Hillsborough 1989 (fans fighting) 96 dead. Liverpool fans have been involved in two of these four – Heysel and Hillsborough – the two caused by rival fans fighting each other.

As the Hillsborough enquiry grinds on costing us many millions, I’ve written before about how (even though my family comes from Liverpool) I suspect the whole thing is yet another attempt by whining scousers to portray themselves as eternal victims and then, in an age where nobody ever takes responsibility for their own actions, to ‘win the lottery’ by claiming vast amounts in compensation from British taxpayers.

I’m sure that in all these disasters the stadiums were dilapidated, the organisation terrible, the police reaction incompetent and then there were attempts by the authorities to cover up their own inadequacies. But in my opinion if at Hillsborough and Heysel the fans had not behaved like a bunch of drunken, feral savages, perhaps there wouldn’t have been any need for the authorities to intervene in the first place?

However, I’ve been contacted by a reader who says he was at both Hillsborough and Heysel and so, in the interests of balance, here’s his side of the story. Readers can make up their own minds about where the truth lies.

“I was there. People arrived late due to major road works, joining the people outside the turnstiles. Some fans who had managed to get to Sheffield early had been to the pubs in the area, which was normal then and is normal now. Having a couple of pints and heading to a stadium to see the game and gaining access safely, even on late arrival, was a common event during the terrace stadium days. But, what happened that day could have been prevented by better police practice and better stewarding.”

“Nobody was trying to storm the turnstiles. Thousands of ticket holders became stuck outside the Leppings Lane end, due to the small number of entrances being unable to cope with the sudden and late arrivals. The police lost control of the situation. The order was given by the police to open a exit gate to let people in, to relieve the crowd pressure outside. The stadium was unable to deal with the surge through the gate, with people being forced down the tunnel behind the goal. The pen behind the goal overfilled and people were crushed to death.”

“So in my opinion, the fans could not be blamed for what happened in any way. Poor organisation of policing outside and inside the ground was very evident on the day. The lack of medical services at the stadium. A couple of ambulances allowed to the seat of the crush, with many, many more lined up in the road outside not given permission to go onto the pitch. All of theses factors caused this terrible event.”

“With regards to the Heysel tragedy, twelve months before in Rome, Liverpool fans, including many women and children had been attacked by Roma fans on exiting the stadium. Concrete and other items had been hurled down on them from a road above, injuring many fans. At Heysel a lot of Liverpool supporters had talked of not letting the Italians off if they began trouble this time.”

“Outside Heysel a number of Italians had slashed Liverpool fans with knives across the legs and backsides. Inside the stadium, zone Z was due to be a neutral area, next to the Liverpool fans. In fact it was almost full with Italians. With a small number of English in there. They came under attack from some Juventus fans. This was seen by Liverpool fans across the chicken wire fence. The Liverpool fans then charged at the Italians. They backed away causing many, many fans to be forced against the wall, which gave way. In my opinion our fans should not have charged, they should have let the police deal with the issues in zone Z. But, my feeling is the crowd had reacted due to the previous year’s events and incidents on the day.”

“What happened at both stadiums could have been prevented. Better policing at both. The wrong stadiums had been selected. Both where antiquated. The ticket allocations by the 2 football bodies left a lot to be desired. Segregation at Heysel. The larger Liverpool following at Hillsborough should have had the larger Kop end, with many more turnstiles.”

“So for those who have posted above, get your facts right. Don’t comment on what you don’t fully know about. Liverpool fans attend all memorials held in Turin and at Heysel. Plus, Liverpool FC and our city council always send people to attend. The people of Liverpool never forgot those lost at Hillsborough and equally we will never forget the Juventus fans lost in Belgium.”

How dare you ignorant savages from the sticks (anyone outside of London) disobey orders?

For months we’ve been using our sycophantic lapdogs in the press and the BBC to smear UKIP. We’ve dredged up every word uttered by even the most insignificant UKIP members and used these to brand UKIP as lunatics and rabid raaaccciiissssttts. At the same time, we’ve desperately tried to cover up all the cases of rape, sex abuse and drug offences by members of the LibLabCon Party.

But you idiots appear to have understood nothing. We told you not to vote for UKIP. But almost a third of you defied our instructions.

How dare you challenge those who ride roughshod over you as is our self-proclaimed right? You think your votes will change anything? Well you can all go and whistle Dixie through a place where the sun doesn’t shine.

Of course, we’ll claim we’re listening to you. And we’ll say we understand your concerns about immigration, economic decline and the ever-increasing power of the EU superstate. But that’s about as far as it goes, you stupid plebs.

You think you can loosen our grip on power and privilege? Some hope. We are going to teach you a lesson you will never forget. We will destroy all those outside of our own Europhile, multi-cultural, PC, London-centric elite and trample you into the ground for your audacity, you jumped up little pip-squeaks.

We’re going to shove immigration and the EU down your throats. We’re going to make you regret ever voting against us. We’re going to wreck the country with more borrowing, more EU rules, more Global Warming taxes, more controls on free speech, more censorship of the Internet.

And then we’re going to retire to our second, third and fourth homes on the French Riviera or in Tuscany with our massive taxpayer-funded pensions leaving you pig-ignorant savages to rot in the crowded, concreted-over, bankrupt, Third World hell-hole that we’ve created through our greed and incompetence.

We despise you! We’ve always despised you! Democracy? Dream on, you pathetic plebs!

As for why UKIP didn’t win in London. Well, it’s partly because about 54% of London’s population are immigrants and partly because in the Islamic Republic of East London, ballot papers were folded in such a way that the few people who wanted to vote for UKIP couldn’t see UKIP’s name on the ballot paper www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDfn6hpHtJg

“But in Tower Hamlets the ballot papers were folded in such a way that you would never even know UKIP was an option. All the other folds were inward and of equal length, the final fold at the bottom was less than half the size of the other folds and in the opposite direction. It was also folded more firmly on my ballot paper.”

A man asks, “God, why did you make woman so beautiful?” God responded, ”So you would love her.” The man asks, “But God, why did you make her so dumb?” God replied, “So she would love you.”

There has been much wittering and hand-wringing in the press and TV about Britain’s house-price bubble and whether the Government or Bank of England should act to stop rocketing prices.

So, is the house-price bubble a result of Britain’s improving economy, as the Government would like to claim? Or is it a cynical way for the Government to create the illusion of economic growth in a desperate attempt to win the 2015 General Election?

I’m not a conspiracy theorist and so prefer to look at the facts. And the clue to what is happening can be found towards the end of George Osborne’s 116-page 2011 budget report. What? You haven’t read it? Clearly none of our financial journalists have bothered to read it either, otherwise they would understand what the Government is up to.

In the report, Osborne makes projections about how the Government’s tax take will increase between 2011-12 and 2016-17 (click to see more clearly)

Yup, there ‘s the clue. Income Tax payments projected to increase by 34%; National Insurance forecast to rise by 36% but Stamp Duty (from property sales) planned to shoot up by a huge 85%. So, as far back as March 2011, the Government had been planning to engineer a massive house-price bubble to create a ‘feel-good factor’ – as people saw the value of their houses rising they would feel confident to move home and spend more thus creating the impression of an improving economy designed to return the Tories to power.

As for the fact that our supposed ‘economic growth’ is being supported by our useless Government borrowing and squandering £2bn a week and doubling our national debt from £700bn in 2010 to over £1.4trn by 2015 – well the Tories naturally choose not to mention that, preferring to big up the ever so slightly decreasing deficit instead. So, if people feel taxes have gone up under the Coalition, then in the words of Bachman Turner Overdrive “Baby you ain’t seen nothing yet, here’s something you’ll never forget” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFRk0FfaQi0 because after the 2015 General Election, someone’s going to have to start paying down our massive, unsustainable national debt and that’s going to hurt.

Meanwhile, today is a special day.  It’s the day on which we can give our self-serving, expenses-thieving rulers and their sycophantic cheerleaders in the media a bloody nose. Vote UKIP!!!
