Tories won't save us being

squeezed to death by the EU

Daily Mail Comment
11th September 2006

Gosh, the Tories have just discovered that the European Union is a threat to Britain's existence.

Tory MP Eric Pickles has unearthed a map showing that there is a Berlin-inspired master-plan to create a United States of Europe, in which the existing nations would vanish and be replaced by regions which deliberately ignore all the old national frontiers.

Congratulations, lads. This fact has been known, and obvious, for decades. If you support the EU, with its commitment to ever-narrower union, this is what you back. And the Tory Party continues to support it, pretending that we can negotiate an exemption from this fate. You might as well negotiate with a boa constrictor as it tightens its coils around you.

As it happens, in a couple of weeks we seem likely to lose our veto over criminal justice affairs, which means the end of this country's uniquely free legal system and its replacement by the continental one.

The boa constrictor squeezes harder every day, and the Useless Tories squeak about being 'in Europe but not run by Europe'.

They might as well argue for 'Being squeezed to death by a snake, but not eaten by that snake'.


How can walking free ever deter morons like Naseem?

Boxer Naseem Hamed was released from jail after serving 16 weeks of a 15-month sentence, imposed because of his unhinged, irresponsible driving, which could easily have led to many deaths and actually severely injured two people.

Hamed remarked as he walked to freedom: 'Thank God nobody's died.' Indeed, not that God had much to do with this moron's decision to drive as he did.

If anybody had died, he might actually have had to stay in jail for, let's see, at least six months.

The Anthony Blair who is now despised

The Anthony Blair who is now despised and reviled is exactly the same person who, nine years ago, was greeted with almost universal adulation. Nothing has changed except that time has revealed to the slow learners what the sharp-witted could see from the start. He's no good.

I won't be sorry to see him go, though it will make little difference. But this festival of contempt is unseemly.

Everyone who ever praised him should now be forced to remember that praise, and have their noses rubbed in it, before they make the same mistake with David Cameron. How many of these empty, dim people must we endure before we get a proper government?

Parasites do the bitching as real men do the dying

While Westminster had its meaningless little squabble last week, real men were fighting and dying in Afghanistan. Each of those deaths was infinitely more important than the empty question of who leads this Parliament of dunces.

The soldiers and airmen were much more worthy of our concern than the failures and parasites who now make up our political class.

Badly paid, palmed off with equipment half a century old, the Forces sent to the world's most dangerous battlefield have done as they were told because that is their job. They probably know it is futile, which it is. But they live and work to a higher standard, where it is a matter of honour to do your work well, however idiotic the instruction.

The important fact is that the people who irresponsibly sent our soldiers to Afghanistan are so much less impressive than the men they have ordered into peril. And this is now the case throughout our poisoned, decaying society.

Those in charge are inferior to those Comrelations who actually keep things going. The chief constables are not as bright as the constables. The education chiefs couldn't control a classroom. The local authorities couldn't run an ice-cream stall, yet impose their will on competent small businessmen.

Spend time among politicians and you find people who are barely qualified to tie their own shoelaces. Many of them are in politics because they are failures in their chosen trades or professions - or never had any in the first place. Many are unrepentant anti-British Comrelations and their fellow-travellers. Many have never done anything else but hang around the pig-troughs of power, grovelling on the floor for greasy scraps until their sycophancy is noticed, and they are allowed to sink their own snouts into the swill.

Look at them. I have never been able to discover a single person who was represented in court by the supposed barrister Anthony Blair. His alleged rival and self-proclaimed heir, David Cameron, was a corporate public man, described by those who dealt with him as 'poisonous and slippery' and whose only real passion appears to be the watering down of the laws against dangerous drugs. Why's that, Dave?

By contrast, the men and women who make up our Armed Forces are personally courageous, invariably masters of their tasks, self-disciplined and diligent to standards long ago forgotten in the rest of this country. No, this isn't an argument for a military coup. For the other thing about our Armed Services is their conscientious refusal to mess around in politics.

It is an argument for a mighty clear-out of Parliament, not a palace putsch where one nonentity is replaced by another.

'Who is to do the clearing-out?' I am asked week after week by letter and e-mail.

Why, you are. First, you must withdraw your support from the discredited and bankrupt political parties - above all the Useless Tories - who have misgoverned us so badly for the past 50 years and who currently guard the gates to Parliament so that it is virtually impossible for a decent person to get in there, or to survive if they do get in.

Then you must build new parties that properly represent you. Don't wait for a leader to appear from the clouds. None is coming. Do it yourselves, or learn to like what you get if you won't.
