ARE WE BEING LET DOWN BY OUR LEADERS IN THE WESTERN WORLD?

Western 'leaders'.  Let's have a look at them:

America-President Obama was elected by an electorate who wanted change from the fuckwit who was Bush.  Under him however, the Bush policies have been followed rigidly.  They've still got Guantanimo, shit health care, expensive military expenditure and the electorate are controlled almost as much as in Britain by 'Homeland Security'.  The politicians are all in thrall to globalist businesses who fund their campaigns.

France-Sarkozy has gone to be replaced by M. Ordinaire, Hollande.  He at least sees the need to stimulate the economy a little to get some demand going but wants to do it by dragging the French economy back to the 1970s.

Germany-The mad frau Merkel, in thrall to the bankers and anti stimulation of the economy, which appears to be the only one in Europe which is working.  The Germans always said that after losing two World Wars, they would win the third, i.e. the economic one.

Russia-Putin's grip over Russia is entering it's third five year plan.  The country is totally corrupt from top to bottom.

Spain-Rajoy holds sway over a nation where more than one in two of young people are out of work.  well when I say out of work, I mean official work, because the black economy is endemic in Spain and until he tackles that and pulls out of the EURO so that the vast housing stocks which the banks hold, can be sold off at a realistic price, Spain will never recover.

Greece and Italy-they don't have politicians in charge, but central bankers imposed by the ECB, so they don't count.

Then of course, we come to Britain.  A country presided over by two toffs who have at the very least been corrupted by the Murdochs, if it doesn't turn out to be more serious.  A country where the much heralded, anti-lobbying bill has been put on the back burner.  How many palms have been and are getting greased?  Only time MIGHT tell.  Cameron, it could be said, would be hard pushed to run a pissup in a brewery and looks to be totally out of his depth.  And the solution to Cameron?  Are we really suggesting that Boris Johnston should be the Prime Minister.  He's a halfwit!  It's even enough to make you nostalgic for Gordon Brown!

It's maybe time that we realise that our type of democracy isn't working and we have to find a better way of running our countries, because at the moment we are on a very slippery slope to financial oblivion or another world war, just to stimulate the World's economies!

Boris-front right

ITALIAN MAN WINS LOTTERY

IS THIS THE START OF THE 4TH REICH AND A NEW WAR IN EUROPE?

 

Germany is reportedly pushing behind the scenes along with France for a smaller, more financially integrated EU within the EU with only the strong currencies allowed.

This can be viewed in a number of ways.  Perhaps the Germans are trying to get the UK to join the Euro, strange as it may seem, for fear of falling into a 2nd track Europe where our influence, (such as it is), is diminished or they are intent on setting up a new German Empire and 4th Reich.

The first scenario, is just not  going to happen, because Cameron would have a revolt on his hands, bigger than any Tory leader has ever had.  I think however, that the second scenario is more likely.  France knows that they are next in the firing line after Italy and perhaps Spain and their Gallic pride won't let that happen if they can avoid it.  By sticking in with Germany they think their currency will be protected and if this is the first step in German expansionary plans, it will save them getting stuffed by the Krauts for the third time in a row.

Whatever is going on and you can bet there is something we aren't being told about, there are some interesting times ahead!

TAKE AT LOOK AT THIS (SHORT) BERLUSCONI VIDEO-WHAT A PRICK!

NOW THAT'S WHAT I CALL TAX EVASION!

There are more Porsche Cayennes registered in Greece than taxpayers declaring an income of 50,000 euros (£43,800) or more, according to research by Professor Herakles Polemarchakis, former head of the Greek prime minister’s economic department.

Now that has to be some really good tax evasion.  It's no wonder the bastards are going bust.  Although I believe Spain and Italy are not far behind.  I remember going with a Spanish friend who ran a restaurant, 20 years ago to the Spanish cash and carry.  He gave me a trolley, he also took one and he split the purchased between the different trolleys.  When I asked him why, he told me his was the official one and mine was the 'black money' one and right enough at the till he paid his with a cheque and mine with cash.

I was reading somewhere else that workers in Italy cannot be paid off due to economic reasons and one of the Greek leaders wives, who is a teacher and retired on a full pension at 39!  Is it only the Northern Europeans who do any work?  Or are we the stupid bastards, who have no protection from our employers?  In Spain, practically everything is done on a cash basis.  I've just spent a considerable amount on building work at my new place and it was all cash to the builder and all his workers were being paid cash.  If no one pays any tax, how do they run the country.  Then again, I suppose they don't waste it on wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, countries that have fuck all to do with us and where Pakistan, according to a TV programme I saw, has been working with the Taliban, big time, while receiving $billions from the Yanks.

Cash it seems, makes the world go round.  It is reckoned that by 2020, half the money in the world will be traded in 'system D', which is where everything is done in cash and no tax is paid.  Is this how we're going to finally get rid of our leeching banker scum?

OFFENSIVE APPLE APP IS BANNED IN ITALY! ARE THEY RIGHT?

Italy's tourism minister has demanded that Apple remove the "offensive" What Country app from its online store after the travel guide described the Italy as the home of "pizza, the Mafia and scooters". 

The mafia sign used by Apple that has caused outrage in Italy

The application, which can be downloaded to iPhones, iPads and iPods, characterises each nation with words and images; Italy is summed up with a road sign which reads "Mafia parking only".

England is characterised by "tea, weird sense of humour, football hooligans and rain", while Germany is summed up with "beer, discipline and autobahns". China is reduced to "overpopulation, kung fu, Great Wall, Tibet and tea ceremony", while the most defining characteristics of the US are "melting pot, hamburger and the American dream".

Scotland is described as a land of mountains with lochs and soaring eagles.  A land of poets, artists and great thinkers.  A country that has spawned some of the world's greatest inventions and medicines.  It just a pity, they've got to live next to those fucking arseholes!

Are they right?

C.I.A. AGENTS ON TRIAL IN ITALY

Later this month, a Milan court is due to return verdicts on 26 Americans, all but one of them CIA agents, accused of the extraordinary rendition of a radical Egyptian cleric, Hassan Mustafa Osama Nasr. Armando Spataro, a public prosecutor who made his name with a series of big mafia trials in the Nineties, wants to send the 26 Americans down for between ten and 13 years. Because the agents are being tried in absentia, and the US won't extradite them, it is unlikely any of them will ever end up behind bars.


Nonetheless, a guilty verdict would still be of symbolic importance: a repudiation of the unchecked zeal with which the Bush administration chased its enemies in the aftermath of 9/11; a firm message that no intelligence agency is above the law, even in an allied country; and a significant victory for the independence of the Italian judiciary, which had been under government pressure not to pursue this case.


"Democracies are founded on principles that cannot be renounced even in moments of emergency," Spataro said last week. "If we gave up that vision we would have partly lost the fight against terrorism."


HOW TRUE. I just wish that our judiciary would have been as bold. 9/11 was a horrific incident but when democracies turn to RENDITION and TORTURE of suspects on evidence which is flimsy to say the least, I believe then that it legitimises acts of terror. For every cleric grabbed off the streets in a foreign country, a thousand are converted to the ways of terrorism.
